My Fairy King", written by Freddie Mercury, for Queen's eponymous first album, deals with Rhye, a fantasy world created by Mercury as a child and featured in other Queen songs, most notably "Seven Seas of Rhye". "My Fairy King" is the first song on the album to feature Mercury's piano skills – as the piano on "Doing All Right" was played by guitarist Brian May. The guitarist was quite impressed by Mercury's piano playing on the track, and from this point on Mercury handled most of Queen's piano parts.
