PRACTICE 1:
QUEEN was a British rock band which was popular in the 1970s and 1980s.

The group is well known for its sports anthems and classic rock radio staples, particularly the
hits 'We Are the Champions', ‘We Will Rock You’ and 'Bohemian Rhapsody;' the band promoted
the latter, first released in 1975, with one of the earliest successful music videos, and later re-
released it for the soundtrack album from the movie Wayne's World.

Queen are widely recognised as pioneers of heavy metal, glam rock, and stadium rock.

The beginnings of Queen can be traced to 1968, when Brian May and Roger Taylor formed the
trio Smile, at Imperial College, London, where they were both students. After the
group's bassist and lead singer Tim Staffell departed in the spring of 1970, May and Taylor took
on vocalist Freddie Mercury in April 1970 to form Queen. In 1971 John Deacon completed the
lineup as bass guitarist.
