5	* BlackSheepHit: Deliberately [[InvokedTrope invoked]] that it may as well be a BatmanGambit. In the recording process, the band would often have Music/MichaelJackson listen to what they made for peer review. As soon as Jackson heard the basis for "Another One Bites the Dust", he said that with a few touch-ups, it'd make them millions. They went off his logic, spruced it up to fit more with the standard electronic craze of the time, and once presented to Jackson, he responded with, "That's it, that's the gravy. Release it and it will top the charts." Considering the band didn't think much of the song, they felt it was a big gamble putting it up as a single, but they ended up taking the risk. ...Needless to say, Jackson was right. [[WealthyEverAfter The song sold 7 million copies, and made the band about $21 million.]]
6	* ReferencedBy:
7	** Music/WeirdAlYankovic's [[Music/WeirdAlYankovicAlbum "Another One Rides the Bus"]] is a parody of "Another One Bites the Dust".
8	** In ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureDiamondIsUnbreakable'', main antagonist Yoshikage Kira's [[FightingSpirit Stand]], Killer Queen, obtains an ability late into the story called "Killer Queen Bites the Dust." Tying into the Queen-centric MusicalThemeNaming surrounding Kira (and [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure the franchise]]'s affinity for music references as a whole), the ability's name is derived from "Another One Bites the Dust".
9	** In ''VideoGame/PizzaTower'', the first BGM track in "The Pig City" is "Bites the Crust", which features a legally distinct interpolation of the bassline from "Another One Bites the Dust".
10	* RefittedForSequel: "It's a Beautiful Day" was written and demoed by Music/FreddieMercury during the sessions for this album, but it was ultimately left off. It would eventually be remixed for the 1995 posthumous album ''Music/MadeInHeaven''.
