<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe lyrics are from the perspective of the immortals, about the state of being immortal, the superiority it gives them to normal humans, and the test that they always have to face because of this<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is also the only song on the album in which Freddie Mercury receives solo credit!
\u201cWe all have our own ideas of how song should be, because I mean a song can be done in so many different ways, depending on of who is doing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The whole thing, I mean, of group policy is, first of all, that the group couldn\u2019t agree on the one single. Because it was to do with the film and also to do with the new Queen product. Because what\u2019s happened \u2013 I think for the first time in Queen\u2019s life \u2013 is that we actually made a film soundtrack, but we\u2019ve also made a Queen album \u2013 so, we had to try to let people know that it\u2019s not just a soundtrack, because we\u2019ve got other songs as well. So it\u2019s hard to depict, that it\u2019s not all one soundtrack, and it\u2019s not just Queen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We had to try to bring two projects together. And so, I mean, within the members of the band as well, we were fighting as to who liked which song. So we couldn\u2019t agree at all, and basically what happened in the end, we decided there should be two singles, released synchronously in different territories, and because the film is out in America first, we wanted to go with Princes, which goes with the film. <\/p>\n\n\n\n But over here [Great Britain], we released Magic, because we thought that if we release Princes to go with the film, then nobody is gonna see the film here until about July, and they have to know what it means. So, sometimes you have to sort of get that diplomacy, and work out things. So, in America they\u2019ve got Princes of the Universe, over here is Magic\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n ..To start off, it was a Queen project as such anyway, but we did only, like, five tracks to go in the film, and there\u2019s about nine tracks now\u2026 Is it nine? Yes, about nine tracks. So these additional tracks, which are not in the film \u2013 so it is a Queen, a new Queen album anyway\u201d![\"\"](\"https:\/\/artgardenhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/image-27-1024x538.png\")
