2011年9月5日是 The Queen 皇后合唱團已故主唱 Freddie Mercury 的65歲冥誕，今年同時也是 Freddie Mercury 逝世二十週年，Google為了紀念他，以 Freddie 各種經典表演服裝和舞台動作的圖像，將首頁塗鴉製作成特別的 Freddie Mercury Google Doodle 標誌，並且在當天點選中間巨大的 play button 時，會出現一段「Don’t Stop Me Now」歌曲為背景的動畫，來向這位偉大的藝術家與音樂先驅致敬。
一天一Google全民大搜查的活動最近好像滿夯的，不過話說搜尋時並不會特別去注意旁邊的圖樣，於是就錯過了這麼經典的 Google Doodle，沒機會在當天直接點選中間的播放鍵來看mv，直到昨天在瀏覽一些廣告網站時才發現有介紹，雖然是有點lag，但覺得 Google Doodle 特別為 Freddie Mercury 製作的動畫真的超讚，所以就放上來做個記錄。
影片中除了搭配「Don’t Stop Me Now」歌詞意境的動畫之外，還有 Freddie Mercury 歷年來華麗多變的各種造型，以及獨特的演唱會舞台場景，只能說 Google Doodle 真的是非常用心阿 ..

I'm floating around in ecstasy

"Don't Stop Me Now" is a song by English rock group Queen, featured on their 1978 album Jazz. Written by vocalist Freddie Mercury, it was recorded in August/September 1978 at Super Bear Studios in Berre-les-Alpes (Alpes-Maritimes), France, and is the twelfth track on the album.
Musically, the song is based around Mercury's piano playing, with John Deacon and Roger Taylor providing a bass guitar and drums backing track. The song also provides an example of Queen's trademark style of multitrack harmony vocals for the chorus lines.
On the studio version, Brian May's only guitar playing is in his guitar solo, but on live versions performed on the band's 1979 Jazz and Crazy tours, May would also play rhythm guitar throughout the rest of the song to give more of a rock feeling to it. A live version of the song features in the band's 1979 album Live Killers. The song also appears in the band's 1981 compilation album Greatest Hits, and in June 2011, as part of Queen's 40th anniversary celebrations, an old take of the song containing more guitar parts was included on the bonus EP of the re-released and remastered Jazz album.
The single reached number 9 in the UK charts but only number 86 in the US. Viewed at the time of release as one of the lesser songs in the Queen canon, it was only performed live during 1979, with the last performance in the Crazy Tour. Despite this the song has grown in stature with time and has been popularised not only by consistent airplay, but by its use in advertisements, television programmes and films, and through cover versions. It has subsequently become one of Queen's most popular songs. It was the first single by Queen to be released on a cassette tape. Previously, each single was released on a Vinyl Record or 7".

Queen are a British rock band formed in London in 1971, originally consisting of Freddie Mercury (lead vocals, piano), Brian May (guitar, vocals), John Deacon (bass guitar, vocals), and Roger Taylor (drums, vocals). Queen's earliest works were influenced by progressive rock, but the band gradually ventured into more conventional and radio-friendly works, incorporating more diverse and innovative styles in their music.
