"Headlong" is a song by British rock band Queen, released as the third single from their fourteenth studio album, Innuendo in May 1991. The song was written by Queen guitarist Brian May, who intended to record it for his then-upcoming solo album Back to the Light (1992), but when he heard Queen lead singer Freddie Mercury sing the track, he allowed it to become a Queen song. As with all the songs on Innuendo, the track was promptly credited to the entire band.
The song was released as the lead single from the album in the United States under their contract with Hollywood Records on 14 January 1991, and charted on the Album Rock Tracks chart, reaching number three. When Innuendo was remastered in 2011, a version of the song with May on lead vocals instead of Mercury was released.
The cover of one of the CD singles is inspired by Grandville illustrations, as are all of the other singles from the album.
