Песня Under Pressure изначально не планировалась как коллаборация с Дэвидом Боуи. Он случайно оказался в Монтрё и заглянул в студию, где Queen записывали песню. Дэвид и участники группы устроили музыкальную импровизацию (a jam session), и так случайно вокал Боуи появился в Under Pressure. Under Pressure Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you, no man ask for
Under pressure that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets It's the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watching some good friends screaming, “Let me out!”
Pray tomorrow gets me higher
Pressure on people, people on streets Chipping around, kick my brains around the floor
These are the days it never rains but it pours It's the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watching some good friends screaming, “Let me out!”
Pray tomorrow gets me higher, high
Pressure on people, people on streets Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love
