Killer Queen


Hi everyone, Katie here.


Just in time, I'm ready to rock you into the weekend!

You've been such good sports over the past few days, trying to figure out the song featured in my new music video. I've been throwing you a few bones each day, but it wasn't until late last night that someone finally got it.

Congratulations to Caren & Cody from Cat Chat! They pegged it. And she pegged ME. Glogirly says there really is NO better song to personify me than Queen's 1974 breakthrough hit, 'Killer Queen.' Freddy Mercury, the pianist and lead singer, wrote the lyrics first and then added in the musical arrangements. He wrote the song about a high-class call girl. Gloman has been known to call me a whore. I'm not sure how I feel about all this.


So without further delay...here it is!

Pssssst! Blogger cuts off the right side of the screen, so if you want an optimum viewing experience, just click HERE to go straight to YouTube. Oh and because I've violated about a gazillion copyright infringement laws, you can't watch it on your mobile device.





Glogirly's had a bit too much fun creating my costumes and sets for this production. Now the song is playing in her head 24/7.


She goes to sleep humming...
"She keeps her Moet & Chandon . . . . . . . in a pretty cabinet."


She wakes up singing...
"In conversation . . . . . . . . . . . she spoke just like a baroness."


All day long it's...
"She's a killer . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .QUEEN."


Now YOU can sing along too!

  5. I can smell the spliff from here. Naughty Katie, even if you didn't inhale (that's what they all say!) ;)

  6. What an award winning video! You are so talented. TW says Glogirly is the Uber talented one. I wish she could design such wonderful sets and do that. BTW, if SOPA/PIPA passes, I'll be visiting you guys in jail. HAH!

    1. Thx, CK! That's huge coming from a music connoisseur as yourself. If they come for me in cuffs, they better be prepared for a MAJOR cat fight. Would you believe that Glogirly got that Queen concert footage by playing it on Youtube and shooting her own video of it playing on her computer with her iPhone. ...just like that piracy episode of Seinfeld. Yeah...she's goin DOWN.

  7. The only thing wrong with being a ManCat is the appalling lack of tiaras.

    1. Check your email, Spitty! I've sent you a gift befitting your ManCatliness.

      xo the Queen

  8. Very cool! Except that my human always thought the song was written about a GUY! She knows a lot of gay men and sometimes they refer to queens as "she," which is how she figured it.

    And yeah, what CK said - I'm SO glad SOPA and PIPA are tabled for now because it would be a shame if this awesome video could put your human in jail!

    1. Once Wikipedia was back up, we looked into the song...and Freddy Mercury. If it's correct, it is about a high class call girl. Early on he had a long term relationship with a woman, although later came out. When he died (AIDS) he left almost everything to the woman. He still called her a soulmate. Sweet.

      If I had to, I'd contact one of the living band members. ...one of them has a blog/website and appears to like animals. Surley he'd be tickled. ; )

  9. YAY!!! I was right! You know what? The more I think about it I think Sparkle was right that the song was originally supposed to be about a guy!!! Not sure but I think so.

    The video is completely genius!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    1. Maybe...but read my reply to Sparkle. Then again, it was an early song for them so maybe it was his way of saying something without really saying it. ; ) Doesn't matter, it was a great band and he was a great performer.

      Thank you...so glad you liked it!
