(part of audiovisual removed due to a copyright claim by London Olympics 2012) About Me (Rik Clay) Aged 25, I attended and completed both compulsory education (the national mind-control curriculum) and university, whilst working on a musical endeavour in which I released 2 albums nationwide, shot music videos and toured the UK & Europe religiously. My band ‘FULC’ received rave reviews and praise in the likes of Kerrang, Metal Hammer and Rock Sound magazine.

Shortly after FULC’s demise in 2005, I began my own solo electronica project called ‘Somewhere Not Here’ and teamed up with the guys in ‘Ten Seconds Of Chaos’ from Leeds.

Seven years, working in local independent record stores had to come to an end, and so I moved on to what I thought was the dream job – but oh, how I was wrong. Ethical travel company!

Innuendo è una canzone dei Queen, ed è la traccia iniziale dell’omonimo album (1991). È una delle canzoni più lunghe mai cantate dalla band raggiugendo i 6’30″. È stata scritta dal batterista Roger Taylor, anche se è attribuito all’intera band. Innuendo raggiunse la prima posizione in UK ed è stata la n.1 più lunga di sempre. La traccia è suddivisa in 3 parti: la prima rock, la seconda un flamenco e poi il finale con lo stesso ritmo della prima parte. La parte di flamenco, uno dei pezzi più famosi dell’intera band, è stata eseguita da Steve Howe, storico chitarrista degli Yes. Innuendo è stata affiancata a Bohemian Rhapsody, arrivando ad essere chiamata la “Bohemian Rhapsody degli anni ’90″[1], sia per la durata del video che per i toni epici dei contenuti brano In collaborazione con www.queenfreddie.com
