Lyric discussion by mercury_girl86 

YYAAAYY!!!! I got an email about this song from Brian May when I asked him about it this is what he said:

"OK Susie ..... Hammer to Fall is really about life and death, and being aware of death as being part of life. I was inspired, I think, by "Waiting for Godot" ...although there are a lot of other things mixed up wit it in there ... The Hammer coming down is only a symbol of the Grim Reaper doing his job!!"

Does this solve any mysteries?

@mercury_girl86 are you serious about May replying?????

I guess she is serious. He sometimes replies to messages from fans, also looks like something he would write.
