Queen classic passes 1 billion Spotify streams

Queen’s 1980 classic, “Crazy Little Thing Called Love”, has passed 1 billion streams on Spotify.

The band shared the news with fans via social media, writing “Thank you for listening.”

The lead single to the band’s album, “The Game”, “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” was a global smash with the song going on to become Queen’s first No. 1 hit in the US, where it eventually sold more than one million copies in the region.

A second US No. 1 hit from the record, “Another One Bites The Dust”, would help “The Game” score Queen their only record to top the US album charts.

Queen recently released a remastered and expanded edition of the band’s self-titled debut album.
