Ok, ok! Let's go. I'll try to make it a bit different as to avoid just repeating what's my favorite album! Let's see if it works. :op Uh...the studio album I like the most is News of The World. I think it's the most interesting Queen ever got to be - all the pieces are very well thought up and its diversity is not a loose or inconsistent one - Get Down Make Love is a wonderful tune, as well as its "nadir", Sheer Heart Attack: the excitement and skill with which Queen brought these tunes to the stage was great. It has two anthemic songs - WWRY and WATC - and, to my taste, one of Freddie's best compositions, which is My Melancholy Blues: a sublime gorgeous song which is half-way between jazz and blues. Spread Your Wings is by far one of Queen's best songs and the clever guy on the bass proved there once and for all that he was irreplaceable too - it's one of Queen's most accomplished songs in terms of lyrics too. Deacon would prove himself once again in "Who Needs You", a lovely, well-accomplished and beautiful song, with great lyrics, lots of humor, incredible vocals by Freddie and very convincing in its humorous fusion. "Sleeping on the Sidewalk" brings up the blues again to the forefront. Then we come to "It's late", which is probably one of May's best tunes - the lyrics are fantastic, Freddie's vocals are as exciting as ever, Roger's drummer is pristine and Brian May's playing is nothing short of wonderful in its beauty, power and creativity. "Fight from the Inside" is Roger's best tune in my opinion - not the most famous, provided, but I think his most interesting and even groundbreaking to Queen's standards at that point. "All dead, all dead", is a gloomy and exquisite tune which comes across as a whole different beast, making the album this sucessfull, original and interesting witness to musical intelligence and diversity. "News of The World", even if one has no background to what the title refers to or why Queen picked it up, does express the album's feel: it's as if Queen were updating us on some of the most interesting trends in the world of popular music and bringing it all to the listener in an acessible and catchy way, paving the way for one's further and more in-depth music explorations. It's as if we were listening to a newspaper published in a world where people communicated through music. From this album comes the song I love the most: We Are The Champions. It's an obvious choice, but the song is just perfect - nothing is too much there. It's grand and yet intimate; its anthemic and at the same time very convincing in the way it addresses one's subjectivity, especially that of the composer; it's flawless technically speaking and represents the apex of the band - the vocal harmony is wonderful, Freddie's vocals are the most beautiful he ever got to pull off, Brian's lines are unforgettable and it features the most interesting piano-playing by Freddie: the way its lines shape the whole song texture without succumbing to the grand harmonies and the powerful guitar playing is just wonderful. ------------------- I don't like to talk about the worst. And I'm a huge acritical fan, the worst would be only what I enjoy the least, which doesn't mean I don't like. I must say that, even though I like the album, "The Miracle" has been probably the one I listen to less often. The song which I can't relate that much to is Delilah from Innuendo - it comes to me as an embarrassing piece in an otherwise very good album. It's devoid of creativity, purpose and, to my mind, even a modicum of good-taste - it's of no use as a piece of humor either. :op ------------------ This is my humble opinion, or, simply, my taste. To sum it up for those who don't feel like reading it all: Best album: News of The World; best song: We Are The Champions. Worst album: The Miracke; worst song: Delilah. ------ Take care you all and have a great friday! Uhuuuu! |

Best Song: There's a lot of them - no best needed when they wrote dozens of stunning songs. Best Album: Sheer Heart Attack. If you take that piece of shit Misfire off the album, it's damn near perfect. In fact, if you remove all John Deacon songs from Queen records, the only album that suffers is ANATO because of You're My Best Friend - and it doesn't suffer much. I know you stepfords love him, but his cheese ass songwriting ruined the band. I've proven this fact scientifically, btw. Worst Song: They wrote some real stinkers, but I'll go with my answer above - Misfire is an embarrassment and sounds like a 4 year old wrote the lyrics. Worst Album: The Miracle was forced, uninspired, dull, and lacking of even one good song. Other than that, it still sucked! |

Best song; Somebody to love - How do you follow Bohemian Rhapsody ? err..like this actually. Absolutely inspired vocal from Fred. Wonderful song. Still waiting for Aretha to sing it. Worst song; Friends will be Friends - Terrible, terrible, terrible. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Mawkish sentimental lighter waving at it's very worst. Best Album; A Day at the Races - The creative zenith. Performance, production, writing. Everyone and everything on fire. Worst Album; A Kind of Magic - A Kind of Tragic. After Live Aid a chance missed to consolidate their position as the best band in the world. |

It is very hard to argue Bohemian Rhapsody as best song just because the significance of the song but it's also a personal favorite of mine. In melody lyrics and sheer composition it almost stands by itself in history, other favs i have are Innuendo, Radio Gaga , i love this song, it was a huge it and i don't understand why it's getting such a bad rap. It has a clear message , the way the music uses computers matches the meaning of the song and it has this amazing satire to it only Queen was capable of. It moans the fact that we watch too many videos yet the Band helped invent them and also goes overboard making them. Alsoi Mustapha also has been a song i love for decades.I really don't have a worst song, there is a few i don't care for . Albums! I am a traditional Queen fan but i am not one of them that concentrates on the 70s only i appriciate most of their albums. Sure every band is hungrier early on and that goes for Queen as well but i feel they done some great albums in the 80's i just rank some of my favorites. 1: A Night at the Opera , i know it's the easy choice but this album ius brilliant on any standard, i think its the best album of the decade, everything came together for Queen, they were under a lot of pressure financially. They succeeded. its's poetry, mocking, teasing . This album is up there with any of the Beatles best work, except it's harder, louder , the music is delievred better and of course Freddies voice 2: Innuendo, Queen2 , The works, The Miracle. I don't think any band has ever done a better swan song than Queen did with Innuendo ( Made in Heaven doesn't count for me because it wasn't planned allthough it's beautiful at it's best) Queen2 goes without saying, The Works and The MIracle are Queens best pop/rock albums, beautiful melodies but also some amazing social comments. The Works is criminally underrated. As far as worst goes i agree on Hot Space but thats just personal taste,m i still congratulate the band on their balls for doing this album it does succeed on some levels but it was tool pushy and didnt deliever batural like The Game did. Somehow i also don't care much for A Kind of Magic, it's a bit of a letdown between the masterpieces The Works and The Miracle, seems to me the band was in a hurry possibly because of Highlander, the tour perhaps, allthough, i think the period between 1984 and 1986 was their best as far as videos and live performances goes. |

Right on, Mike. Most of John's singles were bigger hits than what Brian could pull out of his pants. Though John didn't write as many songs as the others, if he had, more than likely, he'd of had the most #1 songs. |

I've always found it bizarre how Jazz could feature some awesome songs (FBG, Bicycle Race, Jealousy, IOSD) but also some terrible songs (MOTJ, Fun It, IYCBT). Regarding FWBF, yes, it may be another WATC type of song, but I love it. I think it's extremely well written and I love Freddie's vocal performance. Along with Princes of the Universe, it's one of my two favourite songs on A Kind of Magic, and is among my favourite late era Queen songs. |

I think Jazz is a good album, but it was the first one that had some major cracks, and was the weakest out of the first 7 or 8 albums. The album has 10 good or great songs, but also has 3 horrible tunes. More of that Jazz, fun it, and if you can't beat them being the worst. |

(I like Depeche Mode...but they really know how to be techno :lol: ) best album: as a whole...Queen II and ANATO worst album: weeks ago I would have said "All the 80's ones"...but these days I have started to listen them again...and most have great tracks...Hot Space is the more weak for me. I understand that I simply dislike the kind of music in HS...but also, there are many other artists tha have albums quite different one of another. Bowie, to mention one. And the fact HS is quite different to the previous one was an interesting move...but the result is cheesie. Also, the early 80's has for many artists a changing into a cheap-synth-techno sound...that now sounds quite outdated (Bowie 80's albums are shit too :lol: ). Ergo, it's not a only a "Queen problem". Quen has a disctintive sound, no matter the changes, and that's what that make them so fantastic. |

Best song: Innuendo Worst song: Son & Daughter Best album: Innuendo Worst album: Flash Gordon |
| steven 35638 13.05.2009 16:20 |
Best Album: "I think we've come back to the old Queen," Brian said of Innuendo in 1991, "only better-written, better-played, better-recorded, and with better digital technology." Innuendo is Queen's most mature album. It is Freddie Mercury's final statement to the world and consists of 12 compositions that are passionately driven with emotions of despair. However, the album somehow maintains its sense of optimism in the face of Mercury's inevitable death. The running order of the songs has always been an attractive element and is quite reminiscent to their earlier works (Ex. Queen II, A Night at the Opera, & A Day at the Races); each song acts as a counterpart to both its predecessor and successor. Basically, this album is the summarization of everything that Queen was and still is. I can still remember the first time I listened to Innuendo. I put my headphones on, hit play, and immediately my mouth dropped as the title track began. I was amazed at how polished the record was, and how powerful the band sounded despite the condition of their front man. I was further impressed by the sheer power of Mercury's voice -- even during such bad health, this man was still able to outdo himself! Worst Album: "This is an album that I dislike," John Deacon said of Jazz in 1984. Jazz makes me wonder of Queen's creative health in 1978. Firstly, there are 13 compositions on the album -- the most since 1974's Sheer Heart Attack -- that, in their running order, impose a disjointed feel. For example, Fat Bottomed Girls and Bicycle Race shouldn't have been separated and instead placed side-by-side. The album rapidly fluctuates back and forth between different genres/styles. It would appear that the band had little regard for a natural and flowing running order, which is something the band were relatively prominent at with their previous albums. Secondly, the album's production quality is far below Queen's normal standards of absolute perfection. For one, the sound of Roger Taylor's drum kit lacks depth -- it sounds far too tiny. One would have thought the album was going to sound great since Roy Thomas Baker, for the first time since 1975, joined the band in its production. The album begs for a bigger, better sound -- much like that of News of the World! Granted, not all is bad with the album. It features some gems, such as Mercury's delicate ballad Jealousy, Deacon's magnificent ballad In Only Seven Days, and May's underrated rocker Dead On Time. I do wish to add one more detail -- the ending is atrocious! More of that Jazz could have been a great tune had it not included a short remix of the entire album. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Best Song: The Show Must Go On was a powerful closing track for the band's last studio album with Freddie Mercury. The song is often regarded, as in this month's Classic Rock Magazine, as Freddie Mercury's finest vocal performance on record. The band sounds tight, and the composition is well-structured. There isn't much more I can say, except that this song is their most epic anthem in terms of emotional value. I could imagine it was disturbing for Freddie Mercury to sing this song. Worst Song: Fun It has been my least favorite Queen song ever since my first exposure to it. The combination of instrumentation is the biggest let down: tiny drums, big fat bass, and crunchy rhyhm guitars. It would have been slightly better had the production been better than 'poor'. |

Best Song: Bohemian Rhapsody. It's not my favourite song (that would be The Prophet's Song) but I do think that it is the purest distillation of everything that makes Queen the extraordianary artists that they are; the song-writing, the vocals, the musical ability, the creativity, the unconventionality and its operatic nature. I also think it's Queen's most important song, and a candidate for the title of 'greatest rock song of all time.' As I said above, it's not my favourite Queen song; it wouldn't even be in my top 3, but I do think it is their greatest song. Worst Song: I can't really say. Probably Doing All Right. It sounds too much like a Zeppelin song, and I really dislike it. However there are a few other candidates (such as If You Can't Beat Them, One Year of Love, Fun It and a few other songs), but truth be told, I can find something to like in most Queen songs. This also isn't something I spend much time thinking about. Best Album: A Night At The Opera. My all-time favourite album from any artist as well, ANATO is IMO the closest Queen ever came to perfection. Not only are almost all the songs fantastic (Sweet Lady, its weakest song, even has a terrific guitar solo), but the song order is magnificent. To open an album with Death On Two Legs is a mark of genius. But really everything on it is awesome; the vocals and music, the songwriting, the versatility. An incredible album, it capped off IMO Queen's greatest three album run- Queen II, SHA and ANATO. Worst Album: Ordinarily I would say The Cosmos Rocks, but if we're only talking about proper Queen, then I would say Flash, or only among studio albums, The Miracle. Flash is an album I rarely listen to as it doesn't interest me much at all, but it's really a soundtrack rather than a proper studio album. The Miracle is IMO Queen's worst classical era studio album. However, I don't mind it. I think it has several really good songs, thus proving IMO that Queen has never released a bad album (even Flash and TCR have some good things going for them.) |

As I said above, it's not my favourite Queen song; it wouldn't even be in my top 3, but I do think it is their greatest song. Worst Song: I can't really say. Probably Doing All Right. It sounds too much like a Zeppelin song, and I really dislike it. However there are a few other candidates (such as If You Can't Beat Them, One Year of Love, Fun It and a few other songs), but truth be told, I can find something to like in most Queen songs. This also isn't something I spend much time thinking about. Best Album: A Night At The Opera. My all-time favourite album from any artist as well, ANATO is IMO the closest Queen ever came to perfection. Not only are almost all the songs fantastic (Sweet Lady, its weakest song, even has a terrific guitar solo), but the song order is magnificent. To open an album with Death On Two Legs is a mark of genius. But really everything on it is awesome; the vocals and music, the songwriting, the versatility. An incredible album, it capped off IMO Queen's greatest three album run- Queen II, SHA and ANATO. Worst Album: Ordinarily I would say The Cosmos Rocks, but if we're only talking about proper Queen, then I would say Flash, or only among studio albums, The Miracle. Flash is an album I rarely listen to as it doesn't interest me much at all, but it's really a soundtrack rather than a proper studio album. The Miracle is IMO Queen's worst classical era studio album. However, I don't mind it. I think it has several really good songs, thus proving IMO that Queen has never released a bad album (even Flash and TCR have some good things going for them.) |

Best song = The Show Must Go On Worst Song = The Miracle Best Album = Innuendo - Although I do really enjoy The Miracle, A Night At The Opera and The Game albums as well. Worst Album = Flash or if we were talking strictly studio albums then Queen 1. |
