      No, May loses the thread in the song and JD cuts it off to bring it back into the song. He also makes a mistake in the second verse. He doesn't kill anything here, as is so often the case at Queen concerts, he's the one who inserts the mistakes. JD and FM are the King and the Queen in the band. The others are just their room maids.

    Queen works beautifully coz the 4 members are mind readers..they each knew wat each of them was thinking musically & they look at each other constantly for cues till the final end product of the songs dat they play on stage..even in mistakes made, they knew how to regain the momentum & 'repair' it then nicely sums it all up..safe to say dat no two 'live' performances by Queen are ever the same.. even Freddie could change it up merely by singing the same words to the same songs in a different manner & intonations..and adding his own take on the familiar songs to make it slightly different each time..yet still sounding like the original studio recording & sometimes even better than that...I LOVE dat quality abt Queen so much..♥😊!!
