Under Pressure

"Under Pressure" is the name of a song from 1981 (see 1981 in music) by Queen with David Bowie. The song was a hit at the time and is still well-remembered by rock critics. Rapper Vanilla Ice was eventually convicted of sampling this song without permission for his only hit, the incredibly successful "Ice, Ice Baby".

Under Pressure is also an alternative title for the Frank Herbert novel The Dragon in the Sea.
