"Mustapha" is a song written by Freddie Mercury and recorded by British rock band Queen. It is the first track of their 1978 album ''Jazz'', categorized as "an up-tempo Hebrew rocker" by Circus Magazine.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Interviews > Freddie Mercury Interviews > 12-12-1978 - Circus Magazine )〕 "Mustapha" was released as a single in Germany, Spain, Yugoslavia and Bolivia in 1979. The B side of the single was "Dead On Time" for German and Spanish releases and "In Only Seven Days" for Yugoslavian and Bolivian releases. Also, all four versions had different covers.〔http://queenvinyls.com/vinyls-2/prova/jazz-1978/〕 Some claim that the lyrics are in English, Arabic and Persian. In live performances, Mercury would often sing the opening vocals of "Mustapha" in place of the complex introduction to "Bohemian Rhapsody", going from "Allah we'll pray for you" to "Mama, just killed a man...". Sometimes the band performed an almost full version of the song from the "Crazy Tour" in late 1979 to "The Game Tour" in 1980, with Mercury at the piano. They dropped the second verse and went from the first chorus to the third. Also notable is that the song was often requested by the audience, as can be heard on "Live Killers". ==Personnel== * Freddie Mercury - lead and backing vocals, piano * Brian May - electric guitar * Roger Taylor - drums, hawk-bells * John Deacon - bass guitar 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mustapha (Queen song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
