Quote related to 'Now I'm Here' from 'Sheer Heart Attack'

With Sheer Heart Attack, it was very weird, because I was able to see the group from the outside, and was pretty excited by what I saw. We'd done a few things before I was ill, but when I came back, they'd done a lot more, including a couple of backing tracks of songs by Freddie which I hadn't heard, like Flick of the Wrist, which excited me and gave me a lot of inspiration to get back in there and do what I wanted to do. I also managed to do some writing: Now I'm Here was done in that period, and came out quite easily, whereas I'd been wrestling with it before without getting anywhere. That song's sort of about experiences on the American tour, which really blew me away in more senses than one! I was bowled over, partly by the success we were having and partly by the amazing aura which surrounds rock music in America, which is hard to describe.
