Any Queen Fans ?????

Ive just recently REALLY started to dig Queen.
Weird thing is I never really didnt like them, I just never thought to buy a CD or whatever .. then for whatever reason I brought the Live In Wembley DVD and its the best frikkin thing ever !

So now Im working my my into the back catalogue and its like I just found Prince all over again. Brilliant.

Any other Queen fans here ???

What are your fave Queen songs and albums ???

Any recomendations.

I love 'In the lap of the gods' and 'love of my life'

anyone else ??

A Night at the Opera and The Game are both excellent. I would also recommend both greatest hits packages too. Their last cd, recorded just before Freddy's death is so haunting. It's kind of melancholy, but it's also beautiful.

I'm not sure why but i can't stand Queen.
Along with Sting and Madonna, Freddy Mercury's voice makes me shudder.
Also, the guitar break in "I want to break free" has to be one of the worst moments in music ever.

To each his own, but Freddy had a great voice. He could actually sing unlike so many artists that can't.

IT´s funny cuz I had a crazy Queen-phase
during a short period of time 1990-91.
I was only listening 2 funk & soul but got
more & more into rockgroups when I during these
month got absolutly hooked on Queen & got all
them albums & I was devistated when Freddie died,
then all of a sudden I lost completely interest
in them & I could´nt believe that I was once a fan.
I never listened 2 them again until recently just 2
see what memories it would bring.
& that 1979 live album along with "Queen II" &
"Sheer heart attack" brought a little nostalgia
when I noticed I still remembered the lyrics.

That's because it's a keyboard solo and not a guitar solo.

I've got to check out this dvd, thanks.

Brian's guitar tone is as smooth as butter. One of the most under-rated bands ever.

Night at the Opera is a must have.

My mate Ellen is seriously into Queen. I have that silver box set they brought out with tons of hits on it. I think their music is great. I'd love to see one of their concert vids.

That's funny.


I like Queen, but I don't have any of their cds. I think they were cool. I have that all-star concert on tape that was a tribute to Freddie. Annie Lenox and David Bowie singing Under Pressure was amazing! But anyway, I think Queen are really cool, I've seen some documentaries about them. One thing I hate is that the classic rock radio station here ONLY plays Bohemian Rhapsody, as if that was their ONLY song!

My favourite Queen song seems to get ignored by everyone who puts together compilations of their greatest hits and is hardly ever played on the radio. I think it's a beautiful, beautiful song:


Love of my life you've hurt me
You've broken my heart and now you leave me
Love of my life can't you see
Bring it back bring it back
Don't take it away from me
Because you don't know
What it means to me
Love of my life don't leave me
You've taken my love you now desert me
Love of my life can't you see
Bring it back bring it back
Don't take it away from me
Because you don't know
What it means to me
You will remember
When this is blown over
And everything's all by the way
When I grow older
I will be there at your side to remind you
How I still love you I still love you
Back hurry back
Please bring it back home to me
Because you don't know
What it means to me
Love of my life
Love of my life
Yeah
