Why Don’t Stop Me Now Queen cover Works So Well Live
There are songs that sound great on a playlist and songs that genuinely lift a room when a live band plays them. Don’t Stop Me Now is firmly in the second camp. Written by Freddie Mercury and released as a single in January 1979 from Queen’s album Jazz, it only reached number 9 in the UK charts at the time. That modest chart position tells you nothing about what the song became. Decades of radio airplay, film appearances, TV shows and advertising campaigns have turned it into one of the most instantly recognisable tracks ever recorded. Remember how well it was used in the it was used in the 2004 Edgar Wright film Shaun Of The Dead featuring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost?…A hilarious zombie comedy. The moment those opening piano notes ring out, people react. Every time.
That’s exactly why Punch The Air include it in our setlist. It’s a song with a guaranteed response, and in the hands of a tight live band it becomes something even bigger than the recorded version. There’s a reason it appears on more wedding reception and party playlists than almost any other song. It does one thing brilliantly: it makes people feel happy.
