The theme Queen wrote for the film Flash Gordon, featuring dialogue from the movie.
Brian May penned the song, the only single 45 RPM release from the soundtrack. In the UK, it was a Top 10 hit, and in the U.S., it peaked at #42 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The extraordinarily effective piece, with...
[Intro]
Flash! A-ah!
Saviour of the Universe
Flash! A-ah!
He'll save every one of us
[Skit 1]
(Seemingly there is no reason for these extraordinary intergalactical upsets)
(Hahahahahahaha)
Dale: What's happening, Flash?
(Only Doctor Hans Zarkov, formerly at NASA, has provided any explanation)
[Chorus]
Flash! A-ah!
He's a miracle
[Skit 2]
(This morning's unprecedented solar eclipse is no cause for alarm)
[Chorus]
Flash! A-ah!
King of the impossible
[Verse 1]
He's for every one of us
Stand for every one of us
He saves with a mighty hand
Every man, every woman
Every child, it's the mighty flash
[Skit 3]
(General Kala, Flash Gordon approaching.)
General Kala: What do you mean Flash Gordon approaching? Open fire! All weapons! Dispatch war rocket Ajax to bring back his body
[Chorus]
Flash! A-ah!
(Gordon's alive!)
[Chorus]
Flash! A-ah!
He'll save every one of us
[Outro]
Just a man with a man's courage
You know he's nothing but a man
And he can never fail
No one but the pure at heart
May find the Golden Grail
Oh-oh, oh-oh
[Skit 4]
Dale: Flash, Flash, I love you, but we only have fourteen hours to save the Earth!
