Never heard of 'Bohomian Rhapsody' before.. ;)
In all seriousness, I looked at this and expected it to be easy, but when I actually thought about it I realised it's really not. I might have to go with Bo Rhap, that got some fantastic live treatments (Newcastle '79 being the obvious greatest rendition). Crazy Little Thing would be my runner up, if only because it breathes energy into a song which I find fairly stale on the album.
EDIT: Shit! I voted for Radio Ga Ga accidentally.
I kind of feel I've no say in this since I've never been to a Queen gig and being there may make the difference, but I picked We are the champions.
Whenever I watch concerts, aching to be there, I love watching this. It makes me feel happy and sad at the same time. Loving watching the finale, Freddie's built in thank you to the audience, the sing along, the ovation, knowing though that's it finished, the feeling I'll never get the priviledge to experience it directly.
Just brilliant.

Haha, i didn't notice the spelling mistake, but yes they are all good live songs, i personally would go with Radio gaga, the clapping from the crowd is great, and i always love seeing Champions at the end of shows.
Only 7 songs, some of them quite boring live? Make an effort!
The best live song I head them play was Stone Cold Crazy, which almost took the roof off the RDS in Dublin back in 1984.
On record/CD, I never get bored of the Livekillers version of Spread Your Wings.
Neither.
I love Dreamers Ball for it s corny trombone bits and the audience claps. Find it hilarious.
Then there's Prophet's Song which became a great vehicle for vocal ugliness and feedback
Hi quite a boring selection of songs to choose from.I always thought Get Down Make Love was a show highlight with the lights ,smoke and Brians guitar .
I know that I am in the minority here, but I just love listening to every single live version of "Another One Bites the Dust"!!! The characteristic bass tab by John Deacon and Freddie's incredible energy whenever singing that song (which he loved from the beginning) just lifts me up!!! It's quite different than the album track, yet equally incredible and genious!!! Absolutely love it! link
