Originally released in 1980, The Game is Queen’s eighth studio album and among their most internationally successful, topping the chart on both sides of the Atlantic. For the first time the band experimented with disco/funk rhythms, completely immersing themselves in the bass-driven grooves of the day and this yielded the colossal hit 'Another One Bites the Dust', written by bassist John Deacon, and Freddie Mercury's rockabilly classic 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love', both of which reached #1 in the U.S. LP Vinyl & CD.
