We have known for a while that music is a huge influence on Brett Eldredge, especially the older stuff like Frank Sinatra, Queen, Elvis and more. He released a Christmas album last year (2017) called “Glow” that is inspired by his greatest influence in music, Mr. Sinatra. Listen to one of the songs off that album below.

Now, he is covering a classic song by the British rock band, Queen, “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” and it’s amazing. You may have seen the Christmas Peloton commercial on TV with the song playing... that’s our boy, Brett Eldredge.

He posted to social media to promote cover but to honor the lead singer of Queen as well, Freddie Mercury, on the anniversary of his death. He captioned the photo

"We lost Freddie Mercury 27 years ago today but his music still lives on...No one can do this song like him, but I just recorded it for a @onepeloton commercial and it's stuck in my head...thanks for your gift Freddie"
