Got to be Spread Your Wings from Live Killers. Always thought the NOTW version faded out rather weakly in relation to the rest of the song. On LK the guitar solo at the end is the business.
i like very much a kind of magic from wembley.much better than the studio version.brian solo is amazing.
let me entertein you
white queen
staying power
hammer to fall
one vision
Somebody To Love is definitely one of my favorites. The entire band's got amazing energy on that track. White Queen, Save Me and One Vision are good, too.
i love Doing Alright from earls court
also like early live versions of SSOR
and almost every rendition of Somebody to Love (except the george Michael abomination)
My best live tracks are in order of favourite....
1.We Will Rock You (fast live killers version)
2.I'm In Love With My Car
3.A Kind Of Magic
4.One Vision
5.Guitar solo
6.Sheer Heart Attack
7.Now I'm Here (live killers era)
8.'39
Action This Day!
They performed it extraordinarily well compared to the studio version, which was good already. Roger's vocals are very strong, you can hear him clearly. And the bass is fantastic.
Queen did a nice job with that.

Staying Power. Way better than the studio version.
Liar
Stone Cold Crazy
Keep Yourself Alive
Tie Your Mother Down
White Queen
Now I'm Here
'39
Dreamers Ball
imo...Liar always made the show more lively.
I love both one at "Hammy'75" and one at "Earl's'77". I love Freddie's ad-lib in it!
Stone Cold Crazy at "Rainbow'74" is so great!
In first place that must be 'Somebody to love', it's just great, I love it!! I also like: 'We will rock you' (fast version), 'Acion this day', 'Save me', 'Tie your mother down' and 'Bohemian Rhapsody'. All of these songs are imo best played on the On Fire DVD.
My favorite three-
3- White Queen- every live version was class
2- WWRY (fast)- my all time fave is the BBC version
1- my all time fave- the incomparable Don't Stop Me Now
live killers love of my life
gotta love it
the album version (tho good) looks too complicated compared to the live with just the acoustic and freddies wonderful voice!
"splendid darling!!"
These are my favourites:
1. Crazy Little Thing Called Love (because of the instrumental part in the middle)
2. White Queen ( Live at the Rainbow 1974)
3. Now I'm Here
4. The rock 'n roll medleys, especially Tutti Frutti and Jailhouse Rock.
5. Spread Your Wings
Houdoe,

My favourite live queen song is "Sheer heart Attack". The version they play in houston, December, 1977, is just amazing. pure rock.
Thank You, God Bless You, Sweet Dreams You Lot Of Tarts. Goodbye.
Why is it I need to login every time I have to post?? It’s not like other forums (e.g. Tomshardware.com) doesn't remember my details.
On topic:
Somebody to Love always works well. I don't why they didn't play it at Wembley because it is a crowd favorite.
White Queen comes close to S.T.L, the only thing it lacks it the chance of participation form the audience. The Rainbow version form 74 is probably the best rendition ever.
Keep yourself Alive is full of energy as is Now I'm Here.
Don't Stop Me Now from the live killers album is great especially when Roger goes "OOO OOO ooooooo".

I love the lights in SHEER HEART ATTACK on the WWRY DVD, the song is great too of course.
I also love the Zoom 1979 version of Brighton Rock!!
Liar (Hammersmith Odeon)
Somebody To Love (On Fire At The Bowl)
Sweet Lady (Bootleg taped at Madison Square garden)
Bohemian Rhapsody (Wembley)especially during Brians guitar solo, what a classic piece of work!!!
