Best cover made by Queen?
| Mr.Jingles 09.11.2004 09:38 |
My vote goes for... Litte Richard's "Tutti Frutti". 'Jailhouse Rock' comes in a close second place. |

the great pretender.i don't like queen covers |
| Hank H. 09.11.2004 12:59 |
Wish they had done more, I like most. They could make bad songs sound great (this goes for some of their own songs) and great songs even better. Perhaps I like Imagine best, although or because it is very simple. |

I had a good recording of the Immigrant Song, always enjoyed that. 1986 in Manheim I think, i could be wrong. |

TUTTI FRUTTI. |

I also liked Since You've Been Gone which the Brain May Band played (but coz Cozy was on drums I don't know whether that should count). |
| Flo Joe 09.11.2004 14:31 |
Saturday Night's allright for fighting |
| Dennis ™ 09.11.2004 14:45 |
Love Jailhouse Rock and Tutti Frutti and Imagine's alright. But they didn't cover a lot did they? only the rock 'n roll medly's. So I'll go for: Jailhouse Rock |
| Lester Burnham 09.11.2004 14:54 |
I will second 'Tutti Frutti' (even a non-Queen friend of mine thinks it's a great rendition) and 'Hello Mary Lou'. |

Big Spender, Immigrant Song, Imagine... Not Fade Away - was quite funny and very strange as well! |
| brian_may_wannabe 09.11.2004 15:56 |
Hello Mary Lou (Goodbye Heart). |

freddie sounds so cute when he does stupid cupid!!! and i LOVE freddie's agressiveness in big spender! |
| John S Stuart 09.11.2004 16:51 |
The best Queen COVER ever... A Night At The Opera! (Although Sheer Heart Attack and Day At The Races Were good too). The worst Queen COVERS? The Miracle, and Jazz perhaps? |
| brENsKi 09.11.2004 17:42 |
i loved the cover of news of the world frank kelly freas' artwork was excellent ;-) |
| deleted user 09.11.2004 18:14 |

| musicalprostitute 09.11.2004 22:57 |
My Favourite's are "Imagine", & "See what a fool i've been" |
| Fenderek 10.11.2004 05:55 |
Wreckege's "Stone Cold Crazy" ;) |
| Salamon 10.11.2004 06:02 |

| Regor 10.11.2004 06:30 |
Only Queen ? I like Rog's Covers, Masters of War is very poignant in his version, and Working Class Hero is a great song anyway ! |
| Hankster 10.11.2004 13:00 |
Jail House Rock!! Tuti Fruti Imagine |
| Mr. Bulsara 10.11.2004 14:50 |
I Love Luccile in Earl's Court, 1977 In Second Comes Jailhouse Rock Thank You God Bless, You Sweet Dreams You Lot Of Tarts, Goodbye |
| Zander05 10.11.2004 19:27 |
I like the rock medleys they did in the 70's. Very creative. |

grapefruit wrote: But Where can I find that Immigrant song everybody are talking about??I found it from WinMX. But I think that that screaming was Freddie's.. It just doesn't sound Roger for me. Well, I don't know.. But best covers are Tutti Frutti, Jailhouse Rock and Imagine. |
| Hitman 11.11.2004 10:18 |
Tutti frutti with reprise is a masterpiece!!!! second place for jailhouse rock |
| mamamia 11.11.2004 15:23 |
Tutti Frutti definately. |

Saturday Night's Allright For Fighting Jailhouse Rock Imagine Tutti Frutti |
| deleted user 22.11.2004 11:54 |
I think they do Tutti Frutti very well! And Saturday Night's... I think they should have played the whole song though. |
