From the album A Kind Of Magic (1986). The video was directed by David Mallet and filmed in a (now demolished) warehouse at Tobacco Wharf at London’s East End in September 1986. It featured the National Philharmonic Orchestra with forty choirboys and hundreds and hundreds of candles which remain lit throughout filming as well as Mercury wearing a tuxedo suit. It is the only Queen video to feature bassist John Deacon playing an upright bass. According to Roger Taylor in an interview for Queen’s Greatest Video Hits II, he was drunk during the filming.
