Bei der Gala des renommierten schwedischen Polar Music Prize, mit dem in diesem Jahr unter anderem Queen geehrt wurden, hat Sänger ERIK GRÖNWALL spontan den Queen Song `Stone Cold Crazy` von 1974 performt, den auch schon Metallica 1991 gecovert haben.
Übertragen wurde die Veranstaltung vom schwedischen Fernsehsender TV 4.
Der ehemaloge HEAT und Skid Row Fronter schreibt:
“Here’s my performance from the Polar Music Prize ceremony last night. „We want Erik to perform something uptempo“ they said. Well… no Queen song is more uptempo and full-throttle than Stone Cold Crazy from the Sheer Heart Attack album. Apologies to Her Majesty the Queen for the jumpscare at the start. My bad!“

Lyrics:
Sleeping very soundly on a saturday morning I was dreaming I was Al Capone
There’s a rumour going round, gotta clear outta town
Yes smelling like a dry fish bone
Here come the law, gonna break down the door, gonna carry me away once more
Never, I never, I never want it any more
Gotta get away from this stone cold floor
Crazy
Stone cold crazy, you know, wooh, ow
Rainy afternoon I gotta blow a typhoon and I’m playing on my slide trombone
Anymore, anymore, cannot take it anymore
Gotta get away from this stone cold floor
Crazy
Stone cold crazy, you know, ow, hit ‚em on
Walking down the street, shooting people that I meet
With my rubber tommy water gun
Here come the deputy, he’s gonna come and getta me
I gotta get me get up and run
They got the sirens loose
I ran right outta juice
They’re gonna put me in a cell, if I can’t go to heaven
Will they let me go to hell
Crazy
Stone cold crazy, you know
