Lessons on Queen during a trip to the university
We traveled to IOWA CITY yesterday to watch a men's college basketball game -- UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS-SAN ANTONIO beat the IOWA HAWKEYES, 62-50 -- and enjoy a post-game pizza.
Before leaving, we watched YouTube clips of Britain's X-FACTOR show, as the contestants (including polarizing Irish twins, "JEDWARD") "interpreted" various songs by QUEEN.
Why not listen to the real thing while driving down to Iowa City?
"This is my favorite Queen song," 14-year-old KERSTIN said as the Brian May-penned "Who Wants to Live Forever" seeped out of the car stereo speakers.
"Is this really their song," 10-year-old ANNIKA asked as we heard the distinctive (and much-sampled) bass line to the David Bowie collaboration "Under Pressure" began to play.
It seemed fitting that en route to a university, we enjoyed an education about Queen.
