The story behind

Party, according to DoReSol

The song Party, which opens the album The Miracle by Queen, was born from an improvisation session between Freddie Mercury, Brian May, and John Deacon. It all started with Freddie at the piano, who introduced the phrase "we had a good night". From there, the three worked together to shape the piece. Later, Roger Taylor joined, contributing backing vocals and percussion. With a duration of 2 minutes and 25 seconds, this song stands out for its direct energy, which invites celebration.

The album The Miracle, released in May 1989, was recorded over a period of one year, starting in January 1988. This record work was conceived at a particular moment for the band, following Brian May's personal problems and Freddie Mercury's HIV diagnosis in 1987. Originally, the album was going to be called The Invisible Men, but the title was changed to The Miracle a few weeks before its release. The album reached the top spot on the charts in Austria, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland, and reached number 24 on the Billboard Top Pop Albums in the United States. The production was handled by Queen along with David Richards, and featured the collaboration of engineers such as Andrew Bradfield, John Brough, Angelique Cooper, Claude Frider, Andy Mason, and Justin Shirley-Smith.
