Back to Queen real quick, another thing I found interesting from Days of Our Lives doc is that Michael Jackson had to pressure them into releasing Another One Bites the Dust as a single... a song that almost didn't even MAKE IT ON THE RECORD
What a great ear MJ had, and it makes perfect sense for him... that bass line, the funky guitars, the lyrics, it sounds like a Michael Jackson "hard edged" song IIRC it was their biggest American hit, so thanks MJ |

Both Jeannie C. Riley's Harper Valley PTA and Dolly Parton's 9 to 5 hit #1 on the country charts and the pop charts when they came out. I'm not sure that's happened many other times. That's not really relevant to Queen, but I thought it was interesting when I heard it.

It's hard to believe (not that I'm doubting). It seems more likely for country hits to go pop than for rock/pop hits to be picked up by the country guys.
