Queen?

Who here likes my favourite band Queen?
and who if anyone is familiar with Queenzone site?
Its familar to this one and is great also, plus I post there so it is fantastic! wink

If anyone likes Queen tell me what albums? I've got all official plus 25gigs of over mp3's and 15 or so VCD's. so I guess i'm pretty mad on them!

peace

I have 2 of their greatest hits...they aight. They loved Bernard edwards and Niles Good Time s so much, they made Another One Bites The Dust. All thats needed is some strings.Fav songs:

Youre My Best Friend
Bohemian Rhapsody
Flash
Unda Pressure
Killer Queen
Fat Bottom Girls
Bicycle
Dust
and all the rest of the hits---I do like Radio Ga Ga lol.

Way back when , when shag carpet was in vogue, I used to literally sit by my radio on the floor (think of a radio shaped like the death star with a chain on it..so seventies) and wait for Bohemian Rhapsody to come on..AM radio was the norm lol.Thayt song was spectacular to me when it first came out. I kept asking my brothers what the name of it was and kept forgetting because I couldnt grasp the title or the words. I was a baby. Now the song is so overplayed that I...loved The Braids version.

I Like Queen.I ahve there Hits&things.they were Cleaver enough for a while with certain things they did.they were as Good as anyone at threading other people's Work&creating there own vibe from within.there stuff was pretty good during the 70's.they got alot of Milage out of "We are the Champions"&"We Will rock You".

Oh yeah, Queen was one of the greatest. I have all their albums except for Queen 1 and 2, and Flash Gordon. My favorite albums of theirs are probably A Night at the Opera (1975), News of the World (1977), Jazz (1978), The Game (1980), A Kind of Magic (1986), and Innuendo (1991). Overall the 70s was great for them but I still feel they didn't make a truly GREAT album that was flawless throughout except for A Night at the Opera. So many great songs... The eighties was okay for them... and their lone album from the nineties was really good. If Freddie had lived longer they would've probably continued to make great music.

I'd be more than willing to swap Queen MP3's VCD's for Prince ones.

Email me at eggyrocks@yahoo.com and we can talk more smile

Tell me what sort of thing you'd like and I'll try and remember what I have.
I'm not at home until Monday so I cant get to my whole collection just yet smile
But im the same, Prince fav solo, Queen fav band. Amazing!
head over to www.queenzone.com/queen/forum Its great!

Fav Queen stuff, Queen and Queen II currently, I've heard all the other stuff so much that these early albums take my head off, Queen especially. Doing All Right, Keep Yourself Alive, Great King Rat, amazing. Then March Of the Black Queen is amazing off QUeen II.

My all time fav song Is Love of My Life. So Beautiful.
I'll stop now, I really could go on forever about Queen, and Prince for that matter!

I agree on the main part, queen do not have a flawless album in my opinion! (Roger Taylor wrote too many songs!)
However I'd really recommened that you buy Queen and Queen II. They are truly great albums!

Go ahead, I've been looking on your site. Its great. Well done. Did you go to the tribute last november in Hackney? I did and that was truly fantastic, especially when Brian and Roger turned up!

Do you post on Queenzone? If so what's your username? I've posted I dont know how many 1000's of posts!

I'm new to posting on here, I didnt really know the forum existed until I stumbelled across it!

Oh my God,Oh my God. I Absolutely Love Queen. Freddy Mercury had the most Wonderful voice and it is such a loss for everybody now that Queen is over. What a showman. My favorite songs are. Killer Queen, Bohemian Rhapsody, You're My Best Friend, Bicycle Race, Another One Bites the Dust, Somebody To Love,Crazy Little Thing Called Love,We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions. I have all their albums and many 7 and 12" records. I absolutely Love Freddy's Opera pieces and just all of those Costumes he Created. Prince did quite a similar piece on Symbol album with 3 Chains Of Gold, and wore something that looked retro Queen on The Sacrifice Of Victor. I used to have posters of Freddy Mercury and Queen on my bedroom wall alongside Prince's .Freddy was besides Prince and Mick Jagger my favorite performer and I cried when he passed on. What an absolute loss. Queen was the Superband back in the late 70's early 80's. Queen Rocked.
