Deaky was really the secret weapon of QUEEN. A Real genius. Hope he is happy in his retirement with his family and friends. He wrote very good songs. Good bassplayer and good song writter. He was so sad when Freddie's gone... He knew that QUEEN wasn't be able to be the GREAT QUEEN ever more Without Freddie. I'm still agree with him. All my respects for this lovely artist.

Another one Bites the Dust!!! ♥ Great song by Deaky!!! ♥ QUEEN FOREVER!!! 👑 ♥️

The bass never dissapoint me 🤯🤯

I just love that John Deacon wrote the most recognizable, iconic bass line of all time for himself. If people think they don't know any Queen songs, all you have to do is start singing "Bom bom bom, ah bup bup by-ah bup."

Great song by the talented John Deacon! Freddie sang and delivered this song so well! Queen forever!

This is such a great song, with one of the greatest if not the greatest bass line ever

To me, the only Bass line that can match this song is Under Pressure.

Thank you,Mr.Deacon for all that you have done for Queen and for us fans. Please remember that we still love you !❤.

Freddie, you need a song the cats can dance to." John introduced this riff to us during rehearsal that we all immediately thought of disco, which was very popular at the time. We worked it out and once it was ready, played it for Michael. I knew we had a hit as he bobbed his head up and down. "That's it, that's the gravy. Release it and it will top the charts," he said. So we did and it did. -Freddie Mercury I love how Freddie always talked as if they were all on the same page and worked on everything , in thus case it was just Freddie supporting john Except for hot space he couldn't pretend they were behind that!

Look at that their songs are played until now on TV adverts, movies, stadiums, clubs You name it, because they music is timeless. I think, that theirs anthems like We are the Champions and We will Rock You and Another one bites the dust will be playing at the stadiums until sports is over and everything will be just computers. 😀❤💻

Still one of the funkiest bass lines in history and written by some little scrawny shy British dude. If you don’t at least have your toes tapping when that song starts then you need to check your pulse.

Its inspired heavily by chic's good times as john deacon hung around the studio while it was being recorded nobody talks about this fact

As a Queen fan the moment you hear John you're like, I know this is going to be a great song.

Deaky is amazing bassist and genius of Queen Deaky is the secret arm of Queen

it's crazy that Freddie could do techno without any synth - LIVE - on stage!!! What a Monster this man was!!!

This song is a good starter for going through the transition from 70s Queen to 80s Queen. John Deacon was an underrated song writer, but he's always doing outstanding move. Long live Queen, long live John Deacon, Roger Taylor, Brian May, and also the one and only Freddie Mercury.

Sweet Deaky. Miss u. And ur smile and talent. U are amayzing!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

We need more John. How many of us soooooo want this!? RIGHT?? 🤎U Deaky!!

John Deacon always gave his best

Michael said “Put that song out!” He was right, it got No.1　in the US again! John would play the rhythm guitar too that's why John could write a lot of fantastic songs, he wasn't just a bass player, but was also a great song writer and the guitar player too. Thank you John, thank you Queen. アリガトウ

I think everyone subconsciously knows this song because of the bass riff, it's a classic Queen song and an incredible composition.

John Deacon was the best. One of many of his great masterpieces. Thank you,John for giving us your all. Continue to enjoy your retirement.

My favourite song by my favourite bassist. This song still makes me dance 🕺 and is so catchy. It must have given John so much confidence to have this song win an AMA and become so popular. I am shocked that Roger didn’t appreciate this song more since many of Freddie’s songs they played in the early 70s were very un-rock and roll. This just proves that Queen could do anything and make it a hit. Thank you John. I hope you are doing well and you are happy 😊.

Quick summary of this video: John Deacon is a genius and Queen is a legendary band

I remember first hearing this while I was in college. Everyone loved it immediately! Thank you, Mr. John Deacon!

Another one bites the dust is a song that will be played in 50 years time because it can be remixed into any genre of music that has a high tempo in a way its decades ahead of its time and still relevant today.

MY MAN DEAKY!!!!!! what an amazing accidental rockstar, the greatest

my favorite john will always be spreading your wings

Freddie's voice on this track is gold and that base sound ♥️

THIS TOTAL HIT ! JOHN IS QUIET GENIUS !! FOREVER QUEEN !!

In the 1980’s my dad was in the Army and stationed in Hawaii, Oahu schoffield Barraks. He was an IG inspector and every time he did an inspection he would play this song really loud and began inspecting. Most failed their inspection and he would play this louder. It got so bad that majors and demanded he not be allowed to play this song and that he had to be accompanied by a an officer during inspections. It didn’t help them because they would still fail and when he got in his car he blasted this song.

May John Deacon and his family know the love and appreciation we have for his work. Listening to him and watching him work and have happy moments with Roger, Brian and Freddie is joy (yet very much missed).

The reason why Deaky is totally underrated makes me so sad. He's a genius

The fact John has arguably 2 of the most recognizable bass lines in the world of music is amazing that being ''Another one bites the dust'' & ''Under pressure''. I bet if you ask people who recognize the start of both songs and show them a picture of who made the bass line they would be suprised how can a quiet and reserved looking guy like John create such recognizable basslines. I admire John truly one of the most underrated artists of all time

Queen forever ⚡

Queen forever, forever ❤️❤️❤️

He also played the rhythm guitar here too 🎸

Genial el bajista es el alma de Queen, le da ese algo que hace que Queen suene diferente y sea única. La unión de Frediee y John era la explosión maxima, permitiendo a Queen que el público se enganche. Es mi humilde opinión que nadie me pidió.

I adore the true brotherhood of Queen. They may have disagreed with one another, but they respected one another. I admire how John wrote Another One Bites the Dust and featured the drums of Roger.

And then Deakey put this groove down. Immediately Freddie became violently enthusiastic and said, "This is big! This is important! I'm going to spend a lot of time on this." Freddie] would certainly fight for things he believed in. Like 'Another One Bites the Dust' which was a bit of a departure for Queen. Roger, at the time, certainly felt that it wasn't rock and roll and was quite angry at the way it was going. And Freddie said, "Darling, leave it to me. I believe in this." John had written the song. But it took Freddie's support to make it happen. -Brian May So glad Freddie supported john on this

Pure excellence!!! Another One Bites the Dust is just one of those songs that seeps its way into the conscious of everyone on earth; who doesn’t know it? Genius John and Queen, and also a legacy with an amazing melting pot of other greats such as Michael Jackson and Chic. John Deacon is brilliant. I will never run out of praise for him and Queen. The fact that there was always this thing of rock vs disco, and they showed the world that they could do it all... Brought the people together and the groove is irresistible. Timeless. Just so good. Divine!!!!
