Queen’s eighth album The Game (1980) marked a major turning point for the band in terms of musical style. For the first time the group experimented with disco/funk rhythms and completely immersed themselves in the bass-driven grooves of the day. Whatever Queen did, and whatever the fall-out might be, good or bad, they embraced it wholeheartedly and this album was no exception. From these sessions came the mighty “Another One Bites The Dust,” (actually the fourth single from the album) and not only was it a colossal international hit, it gave John Deacon his first No. 1. Inspired by the kind of bass lines so successfully employed by Chic at that time, “Another One Bites The Dust” took the world by storm and catapulted the band into a whole new musical arena.
The Game was Queen’s first No 1 album in the U.S. and also their first to top the charts in both America and at home. More singles than ever were released from this album, all diverse in music and style and appealing to a wider fan base than ever before. The first single from The Game was the rockabilly-inspired “Crazy Little Thing Called Love,” while May’s lovely ballad “Save Me” was the follow-up. Freddie’s stirring and unforgettable, “Play The Game,” was the third UK single to be lifted from The Game, and the first single by the band ever to be released with a synthesizer. Next came the world singles chart domination that no one could have anticipated; Deacon’s disco-based giant “Another One Bites The Dust,” the fourth and last UK single, but by far the biggest.
