I'm not a die hard Queen fan,in fact I only bought their
Greatest Hits in the early 80's and nowadays I only own Greatest Hits1&2.
And of course a lot of other songs on self-compiled cd's.
However,I have no problem admitting they we're one of the greatest
and best rock bands of our time and every member was a talented
musician/singer.I never liked their 80's pop songs(Radio gaga,
I want to break free) but that's personal taste!
Others that I like(Heaven for everyone,These are the days,Breakthru)
are hated by a lot of others

I just re-discoverd this song from the Kind of magic album
and it was part of the Highlander soundtrack.
I really love Princes of the universe,it rocks,the sound is solid
and it is SO Queen(the harmonies,Freddie's voice is great,May's
guitar is all over the song).
One Vision is also a great track,seems like the blueprint for Princes...

Anyone thoughts??

Best Queen albums are Queen II, sheer heart attack, A night at the opera and News Of the world. Get a hold of them 2 b in pure queen heaven.

I like "Day at the Races" as well - Teo Torriate could have been a single, to my ears.

Was listening to "Sheer Heart Attack" last night as it happens - I love the Lap of The Gods tunes on it. Quality

I would add 'Innuendo' to that list, with honourable mentions for 'A Day At the Races', 'The Miracle' and 'Made In Heaven'.

It definately should have been a single. Have you heard the Live at Wembley version? It's different, but very powerful live.

Queen is my all time favorite band. One thing I love about Freddie Mercury's vocals is that when you sing their songs you feel like the most powerful being on the planet, standing up there on a mountaintop, wind blowing through your hair. They just had so much power. Plus I loved Highlander too and the song made the movie that much more interesting.

I loved Innuendo too, but because I got right around the time that Freddie died, I mostly would cry a lot when I listened to it.

Queen is one my favorite favorite bands...I have all of their CD's/Albums!! (Well, up until the 'Day at the Races' album). Sheer Heart Attack is my favorite one so far! So underrated here in the states, and I don't understand why?
