Crazy Little Thing Called Love is a song performed by the English rock band Queen, according to Wikipedia.
The song was written by singer Freddie Mercury who was a British musician, best known as the lead vocalist of the rock band Queen.
Crazy Little Thing Called Love hit number one on the U.S. charts on Feb 23, 2980 and the following four weeks while it was ranked as number two in the United Kingdom.
Mercury composed Crazy Little Thing Called Love on the guitar in just five to ten minutes, the singer reported May 2, 1981 in Melody Maker.
Holy blow out. From the hair to the voice, Siobhan Magnus is still a force to be reckoned with.
Rocking a faux-hawk, the strange little thing from Cape Cod ended her take on Stevie Wonder’s “Superstition” with what has become her signature - a scream akin to vocal great Tina Turner’s.
It has become agnus’ secret weapon, though it doesn’t take much to stand apart from the bland competition.
Viewers will learn tonight if the Barnstable High School graduate makes the top 10, a feat that would automatically place the 20-year-old on the “American Idol” tour this summer.
Magnus, along with season standout Crystal Bowersox and unsuspecting 16-year-old Aaron Kelly, were the only ones to successfully tackle this week’s challenge, singing No. 1 pop songs from Billboard’s Hot 100 list.
Bowersox wisely chose Janis Joplin’s “Me and Bobby McGee,” which played to her vocal strengths. It was a solid performance, if not predictable.
But it is meek Pennsylvania crooner Kelly who continues to impress.
The high school student turned in another tender, country-tinged performance with Aerosmith’s “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing” despite being hampered by laryngitis and tonsillitis.
Pop princess Miley Cyrus was on hand to act as mentor to the group of misfits. The 17-year-old Disney star had her work cut out for her.
Take Tim Urban, season nine’s resident Sanjaya Malakar. “It’s not the personality that’s the problem,” Cyrus said of the mop-topped Tiger Beat protege.
Urban oozed lounge-lizard skeeze as he vocally assaulted his teenaged female fans with his attempt at Queen’s “Crazy Little Thing Called Love.”
Freddy Mercury, Tim? Really?
Then there was poor Paige Miles. Her once-beautiful voice has shriveled and disappeared. Be it the laryngitis or the pressure, her attempt at Phil Collins’ “Against All Odds” was embarrassing.
Miley stripped YouTube sensation Andrew Garcia of his guitar. For the second week in a row, Garcia was without his safety blanket, and put himself at serious risk of going home after his attempt at Marvin Gaye’s “I Heard It Through the Grapevine.” The bespectacled guitar hero looked listless on stage and his vocals were devoid of soul.
Urban, Miles and Garcia are easily in the bottom three after last night, but dreamy Casey James shouldn’t be far behind them.
