*First line is the band name. 1979. Classic British rock band. The lead singer wrote this song in 10 minutes as a tribute to his musical heroes Elvis Presley and Cliff Richard. He was in the bath when he wrote it. The guitarist wanted to emulate Rick Nelson's and Presley's longtime guitarist James Burton, and used a Fender Esquire guitar during recording. The B side of this song was We Will Rock You. The photo is from the album cover. The lead singer's name appears in the lyrics.
