Alice Cooper came to the set under the impression that he would be performing musically for the film, with one line. Upon arrival, he was surprised to be handed an entire monologue to memorize and shoot with a small amount of time to do so. However, Cooper is known to be a history buff outside of his music career.
Mike Myers fought for the inclusion of the Queen song "Bohemian Rhapsody". But Paramount and film's producer, Lorne Michaels, rejected it at first. The studio reasoned that the rights were too expensive, while Michaels said that the song was too old. He suggested Guns N' Roses' "Welcome to the Jungle", because it was more current. Myers threatened to quit the production if he didn't get what he wanted, and eventually the studio gave in to his demand.
Dana Carvey did his own drum-playing for the music shop scene.
The film is credited with reviving the popularity of the British rock band Queen in the US through its use of their 1975 song "Bohemian Rhapsody". They had dropped in popularity throughout the 1980s in the US and hadn't even bothered to include the country in their final two international tours. This film caused the song to become a bigger hit in the US chart than it had been first time around, peaking at #2. Unfortunately, Freddie Mercury didn't live to see the song's renaissance as he passed away just a few months before the film's release. However, according to guitarist Brian May, Mercury did give permission for the song to be used and saw the clips while he was close to death because Mike Myers had sent a tape and wanted him to see it.
Is the only Saturday Night Live (1975) spin-off movie to date (including The Blues Brothers (1980)) that has grossed over $100 million.
"Wayne Campbell: So, do you come to Milwaukee often? Alice Cooper: Well, I'm a regular visitor here, but Milwaukee has certainly had its share of visitors. The French missionaries and explorers were coming here as early as the late 1600s to trade with the Native Americans. Pete: In fact, isn't "Milwaukee" an Indian name? Alice Cooper: Yes, Pete, it is. Actually, it's pronounced "mill-e-wah-que" which is Algonquin for "the good land." Wayne Campbell: I was not aware of that."
"Garth Algar: Benjamin is nobody's friend. If Benjamin were an ice cream flavor, he'd be pralines and dick."
