The story behind the song

"Jealousy" was written by Freddie Mercury and appeared on Queen's seventh studio album, Jazz, released in 1978. Brian May played his Hallfredh acoustic guitar on the track, which featured a special bridge modification to create a "buzzing" sitar-like effect. This technique had been used by the band before on "White Queen (As It Began)." All the vocals for the song were recorded by Freddie Mercury.
