Queen the British rock band, not the monarchy.
"Since Queen had named their albums A Night at the Opera and A Day at the Races after two of the Marx Brothers' most popular films, surviving brother Groucho Marx invited Queen to visit him at his Los Angeles home in March 1977 (five months before he died). The band thanked him, and performed "'39" a cappella.[9]"
Wow. I've always thought Groucho was an amazing wit, but I think that's pretty awesome.
The song '39 has always been one of my favorite Queen numbers, partly because acoustic guitar dominates but also because it has an astrophysics reference in it, and at that time - 1975 - that was unheard of.
