I was listening to NOTW last week for the first time in a long time, the album tracks are superb, all dead all dead, its late, who needs you and spread your wings to name just four. This album sometimes gets a bit forgotten but i think its some of thrie best work, what do you think?
The first Queen album I ever bought when it first came out and I never looked back! This is the one that started it all off for me. AWESOME!!!

Yes, it's sometimes forgotten. There are so many fantastic songs on it but I think it's how the songs aren't connected togeather that makes this not one of the popular ones.

It's my favourite Queen album. Somehow my second favourite album always changes between QII and ANATO, but NOTW I always like best. It's got the right amount of glamour – not too much but still more than the later albums – and there are three of my favourite songs (My Melancholy Blues, Spread Your Wings and WATC) and not one mediocre song (oh yes, on all the other albums there are some!). The mix is right, from punk to blues. It never gets boring and there's really no song that I want to skip while listening.

My first Queen albums that I got were Classic Queen and the Hollywood Records Greatest Hits. I was 12 and Wayne's World had just made Bo Rhap big again. I decided to get News Of The World because I loved the cover. Needless to say I loved it, and Queen were my favorite band ever since. God that was 13 years ago now...
