" Killer Queen " was written in a single night , which contrasts with the " ages " it took to write " The March of the Black Queen " as Mercury put it , while John Deacon would write his very first song , " Misfire " . " Brighton Rock " was written during the making of Queen II , " Stone Cold Crazy " had its genesis in Mercury 's pre-Queen band Wreckage , and Mercury had written " Flick of the Wrist " during May 's absence . '' Sheer Heart Attack '' was also the first album in which all four band members contributed songs ; " Stone Cold Crazy " was the first song in which all four band members would receive a writing credit . " Brighton Rock " was written by Brian May during the '' Queen II '' sessions , but was not recorded at that time as the group felt it would not fit with the rest of the album . Lyrically , it tells the story of two young lovers named Jenny and Jimmy meeting in Brighton on a public holiday . Mods travelling to Brighton on bank holidays was a popular narrative at the time , such as The Who 's '' Quadrophenia '' . Jenny can not linger because she is afraid her mother will find out " how I spent my holiday " , but afterwards " writes a letter every day " ; Jimmy , eager on the day , is not so happy with her " nothing can my love erase " : now he is the one afraid of discovery by " my lady " . The song includes an unaccompanied guitar solo interlude , which makes extensive use of delay to build up guitar harmony and contrapuntal melodic lines . It grew out of May 's experimentation with an Echoplex unit , as he had been attempting to recreate his guitar orchestrations during live performances of " Son and Daughter " . He had made modifications to the original unit so that he could change the delay times , as he felt that it was n't the length he needed , and ran each echo through a separate amplifier to avoid interference . The studio version only contains one " main " guitar and one " echoed " guitar for a short section , but live , May would usually split his guitar signal into " main " and two " echoed " , with each going to a separate bank of amplifiers . The guitar solo on this song has been performed live at most concerts by Queen or May , either as part of this song , in a medley with another , or as a standalone piece . May also performed some of the solo at the closing ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics in London . It is considered to be one of May 's finest solos , with '' Guitar World '' ranking it 41 on their list of the '' 100 Greatest Guitar Solos of All Time '' . The song was notably used in the 2017 film '' Baby Driver '' , being one of the favorite songs of the main character Baby and played during the film 's final action scene
