Welcome to this Crazy Little Thing Called Love Guitar Tutorial by Queen! This is a such a fun song to play and the rhythm section is great for beginners. For those after a little more of a challenge, the guitar solo is great fun and involves a few tricky licks. Nice one Brian May! At the end of the video I’ll also be doing a playthough of the full song with a backing track for you to play along with.
Enjoy! Like this #crazylittlethingcalledlove video by #queen and subscribe to the channel for more videos in the future!
