Today’s song is the wonderful Queen song A Kind of Magic dating from 1986. Written by the band’s drummer, Roger Taylor, the song was used in the film Highlander and remains one of the most well-known – and well-loved – Queen songs.

I’ve given this song a bit of a special treatment in honour of a wonderful person whose 60th birthday would have been today.
