What's your favorite song by QUEEN?

I'm in a Queen-ie mood right now. I'm listening to One Vision which was used in the movie Iron Eagle.

My all-time favorite, though, would still have to be Another One Bites The Dust.

But what's your favorite song by Queen?

Really sweet song. Damn, Freddie was a fine singer. I've got the DVD of the Queen Memorial concert at Wembley - it's terrific - George Michael does a tremendous job on "Someone to Love".

or fat bottomed girls

the bass player rocked and Mr. Mercury had a pair of pipes that would not quit

RIP Freddie

You make the rockin' world go 'round!

My friend does a cover of this song that he calls "Fatt-Bottomed Bears"!

Anyone that says Freddie Mercury isn't the greatest rock singer in history is deaf...

LOVE that album, err, I mean CD.

.

Plus Radio Ga-Ga and I Want it All.

Radio Ga-Ga...LOVED IT!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

1. Somebody to Love
2. Bicycle Race
3. Don't Stop me Now (definitely their campiest song!)
4. Killer Queen
5. Stone Cold Crazy

I can definitely thank Mrs. Beast Man for turning me into a Queen fan.

Yeah, it was severely overplayed and had that whole Wayne's World revival, but it's still my favorite.

It also brought liberals and conservatives together in a moment of harmony. Someone on a Yahoo message board once mentioned that Kerry's boat is named "Scaramouche." I replied "will you do the fandango?"

That touched off a bipartisan sing-a-long that marked at least a 10-minute-long cessation of hostilities. It was quite touching.

Freddie Mercury was a uniter, not a divider.

my fave.

I mean, I am a fat bottom girl and I love that song!!

If you can find it, it's a great all Queen soundtrack album.

The theme has the same feel as Bohemian Rhapsody.

Ah well, who wants to live forever? DIVE!!!!!!!!!!!

But I also love "Tie Your Mother Down", "Fat Bottom Girls" (that's my cell phone ring) and "I'm in Love with My Car"

Queen rules - but I won't buy any album after Jazz

"Bohemian Rhapsody" of course, with "Gimme the Prize" (from "A Kind of Magic") and "I'm Going Slightly Mad" (from "Innuendo") as second and third, respectively.

I haven't listened to Queen for a long time, as I always end up feeling sad when I do. Freddie put his heart into his music, and toward the end his sadness is very apparent in his music.

The closest Queen ever got to power pop.

Honorable mention: "Crazy Little Thing Called Love"

Even for me.

Though I can't think of any Queen songs I don't like. Not many bands I can say that about.

Genius.


The whole A Night at the Opera album is briliant.

But anything they did in the 70's will do.

Queen fans, track down a copy of the "Crown Jewels" box set if you can find it. Much better sounding than the Hollywood reissues. Of course if you really like the Rick Rubin hip hop remix of "We Are The Champions", then you better stick with the Hollywood versions.

As a kid, I bought all of Queen's albums and wore them out. That song blew me away then and it still does.
Queen (and Fred) is one of a kind.

YES INDEED!

I also like Find Me Somebody to Love.

I love it all, from the very beginning to the very end. Freddy Mercury was the finest showman and singer in rock history. The ultimate frontman. He is missed.

Somebody to Love
One Vision
We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions

Brian May's guitar solo in We Will Rock You is the epitome of his sound and style... sweet, singing tone with a crucnhy underpinning... aural candy!!!

It's from JAZZ, and I can't possibly tell you how many times I have OUTblasted my moron neighbors (thank GODS I don't live at that old hellhole anymore!) with that song! Oh man, being as how QUEEN is one of, if not my all time fav, damnit, just ONE song! Ok, how about this: Choice 2: ALL OF THE ABOVE!!!!!!!!!

Especially:

Hammer To Fall
One Vision
Put Out The Fire
Tenement Funster
Radio Ga Ga
Liar
Sheer Heart Attack
Innuendo
I Want It All
Killing Time (Roger Taylor solo w/ Freddie Mercury)
Crash (Gary Numan & Roger Taylor)
Back To The Light (Brian May solo)
The Great Pretender (Freddie Mercury-w/ Roger Taylor-solo)
Somebody To Love
Tie Your Mother Down
It's Late
It's a Hard Life
Keep Passing The Open Windows
Don't Loose Your Head
The Business (Brian May solo)
Masters Of War (Roger Taylor solo...Dylan cover...oh how timely? Well...his version is from 1984...ironic?)
Doin' Alright
March Of The Black Queen

OK OK! I think that covers it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lu Cifer, did I miss anything???!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Off Sheer Heart Attack. First song, i think.
The Professor

It's delightful and lyrical...but I also have a soft spot for Fat Bottomed Girls, being one.

Now I just think about half-stiff dicks when I hear it...

I'm a Straight guy, I'm not SUPPOSED to be thinking about half-stiff dicks!

but I quess two of my favorites were Tie Your Mother Down off of A Day at the Races and Dragon Attack off of The Game.

But it just depends on my mood.

or "It's Late", depending on my mood.

That song rocks!
