I Want It , and


"I Want It All" is a hard rock track by Queen, written by guitarist Brian May and featured on the band's 1989 studio album The Miracle. Released as the album's lead single on 2 May 1989, the song carries a bold, anthemic message about ambition and determination. For electric guitar players, it offers an excellent study in Brian May's signature tone and powerful rhythm work, making it a rewarding and recognizable piece to learn.

  • Written by Brian May, the song showcases his trademark layered guitar style and was produced by David Richards.
  • On release in 1989, the single reached number three in the UK, Finland, Ireland, and New Zealand.
  • The track also hit number one on the US Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart, highlighting its rock radio impact.

Vox AC30

Brian May stacks Vox AC30s cranked to full volume, letting natural tube breakup and the Top Boost channel create the chimey, harmonically rich overdrive that defines Queen's sound. Driven hard by a treble booster rather than pedal distortion, these amps deliver the compressed, singing tone central to May's signature style.

Boss DD-3 Digital Delay

May uses digital delay as a live equivalent to the tape echo (Echoplex) he favored in the studio, adding subtle spatial depth to his solos without cluttering his famously minimal effects chain. The DD-3 provides clean, repeating echoes that complement his vocal-like tone without compromising the directness of his treble booster-driven AC30 sound.
