of course queen 2 is a better queen record than hot space,but if ta wanna just shake your ass a bit ya can,t beat hot space. altough if your tripping in a forest or at the ocean listening to queen 2, oh the dances you'll do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.....would't you like to be beside the seaside...........
Not that I give a shit what you listen to, but if you wanted to try to shock at least some people, come on and say: "The Britney Spears show I saw 2 years ago was great, but man, they played Queen in the car on the way over, boy did that ruin my day." Try that.
God, you people are thick. Or is it because Queen fans have evolved to a point of extreme open-mindedness? Here, someone comes on and mentions their love for Hot Space and their hatred for Queen II, and you simply say "fair enough"? Where are the flames and the arguments, the comparisons betwen the albums, the statement that Black Queen shits all over Body Language any day, the claims of lack of taste.
Geez, this whole millennium reality TV show everything in the open thing SUX!

No flames and arguments from me. I think Hot Space is a spectacular album. Best of the 80's bunch in my opinion.
Hot Space is definitely their most stylish album. I thought Queen made a perfect decision to work with Mack throughout the 80's as he really updated their sound. Everything was incredibly crisp and defined, unlike aural monstrosities like Queen II. Don't get me wrong, I can appreciate II for its compositions and audacity, but it's not exactly paradise on the ears. I think it would be a great "Queen" project for them to go back into the studio and do a few re-takes on old songs - just like what they did with I Can't Live With You. I'm sure it would knock up some great moments.
hot space is decent, but weak, live performences of these songs are so much better, but thats just me. Queen II is there best album period, F#@! ANATO Queen, Queen II ADATR, SHA and Innuendo are My top 5
