'Bo Rhap' would have took the honours normally, but I decided to go for 'Somebody To Love', a remarkably complex performance...

...and a top band to boot...!

I voted exactly the same as you Moo ;)

I voted "Killer Queen".  But my second favorite might be "You're My Best Friend".  I also considered "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" - that's a great one, too.

"We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions" with "Crazy little Thing Caled Love" coming in second. :)

Hey....there are TWO choices for "Somebody To Love" so I went with the second one :D  I'd also add that I loved the entire LP called "The Game" although it was from 1980 :)

I voted "other" for "Seven Seas Of Rhye" which to me was their finest hour.

I also loved "We Will Rock You" live, particularly at Live Aid, 'cos when Freddie came on and led the crowd in this it just set the whole concert alight.

I saw them in concert in the mid 80's. Spectacular ! Freddie has the most amazing voice IMO ! :)

Without argument, they wiped the floor with everyone else playing that day...an outstanding performance...

If he's broke today, it's because he (VI) is an idiot.  >:(

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST
But that's technically 1980.
from the bona-fide '70s, I'd have to say
Bicycle Race

We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions
became too much of a sporto theme.

Don't forget Weird Al
ANOTHE ONE RIDES THE BUS

Everything Queen produced was superb. 8)  Freddie was the best at what he did.  The biography on VHI was outstanding and heartbreaking. If you didn't see it....do so. It will make you proud of the man and touch your soul at the end. :\'(

Bohemian Rhapsody! The song that turned a lot of hard core rockers on to the wonders of classical music.

Subject: Re: Queen

Written By: Bobby on 06/02/04 at 2:43 pm

I chose 'Somebody to love'. Great song followed by 'Good old fashioned lover boy'.

I think Bohemian Rhapsody (despite respecting the song) is too overlong and boring.

Freddy Mercury had such a HIGH ENERGY to sing his songs!!!!

Queen is one of my favourites, but my very favourite song of Them is...."Bohemian Rhapsody" 8)

I thought that way when it first came out. Now I like it more than I did then. ???

It's got that confusion into anger into acceptance lyrics going on that's interesting.

Oh God I cant possibly choose !  Its like saying "Hey which friend do you choose to throw over a cliff first" !!!!

Bo Rap is the song my parties finish with.  For decades we have partied all night and then found ourselves sitting in a circle around a fire singing Bo Rap till its time to sleep.

Best Friend/Somebody To Love have special meaning to me.

Who Wants to Live Forever is one of about 5 songs in the world that can make me cry no matter how often I hear them.

I'm Going Slightly Mad - its my theme song !!

Seven Sea's - only gained a recent appreciation for it - no idea what took me so long.

Fat Bottomed Girls - my other theme song.

Radio GaGa/We Will Rock You/Champions - luv'em cos they are great to sceam along to.

I Want To Break Free - one of the best film clips of the 80's.

No One But You - another that makes me cry.

Too Much Love Will Kill You - Freddies lasting reminder to the world - completed after he died :( sniff

Entire soundtrack to Highlander.

Entire soundtrack to Flash Gordon.

Under Pressure - cos it was such a grat mix of two great voices.

Innuendo - love its power.

Argh - cant do it - cant just choose one !!

Yeah, it reminds me of Donna (Banasy) and her sadness that we both share. She sent me a "Queen Rocks" CD a few years ago and that song was on it :\'(

No way I could choose one over another but I picked "We are the champions".
