The unusual public lifetime of Brian May, the Queen guitar hero who turned a celebrated astrophysicist<\/a> and occasional anti-wokeness pundit<\/a>, has now taken a brand new flip. Brian May is now a knight. He\u2019s Sir Brian Harold May. As I perceive it, May is now obligated to serve the United Kingdom throughout any potential future invasions from hordes of orcs.<\/p>\n Brian May was one of some music-business professionals named on the 2023 version of the King\u2019s New Year Honours List, a British annual custom. Previously, in 2005, May was named Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE), so his knighthood is a sort of promotion. (Knighthood is the very best award in that British system.) In a press release on Queen\u2019s Instagram, May says, \u201cI\u2019m happy and grateful to receive this honour. I will regard the knighthood not so much as a reward, but more as a charge \u2013 a commission \u2013 for me to continue to fight for justice \u2013 to be a voice for those who have no voice. I will endeavour to be worthy \u2013 to be that Knight in Shining Armour.\u201d<\/p>\n The different music-business kind who acquired a knighthood was Robin Millar, a file exec and producer who\u2019s labored with Sade, Fine Young Cannibals, and Everything But The Girl and who co-founded the administration agency, publishing firm, and file label Blue Raincoat Music.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
