We are back with a post and this time with Queen!

Did you know that 'Another One Bites the Dust' is full of idioms? Let's take a look at some of them:

"𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝘁?" 'To hang on the edge of your seat' means to be eager and excited for something to happen.

"𝗔𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗯𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝘂𝘀𝘁" 'To bite the dust' means to die or to fail. 𝗧𝗜𝗣: it is quite informal and should not be used in serious situations!

"𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝘁?" 'To stand the heat' means being strong and not having to quit or stop when something gets difficult.

These are only a few of them, can you locate more while listening to the song?
