best queen song - the nominations

[beesonthewhatnow]

So, a U75 contingent to the fanclub convention this year then?

It's a very, very strange thing indeed

 

[killer b]

i'd be up for it...

i'm suprised by the lack of negative comments tbh - is it ok to love queen now?

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

i'd be up for it...

You really have to like them - three day of nothing but. Queen tribute bands, queen discos, queen dance lessons, queen, well, everything really

The level of dedication some people have to them is quite scary at times, I'll see if I can dig out some photos and post them up

 

[killer b]

i own all their albums...

 

[skyscraper101]

Interesting nobody's mentioned Bohemian Rhapsody yet - perhaps it's just been over played to death and everyone's sick of it

I'm not really a Queen fan. But I guess my faves would be either Radio Ga Ga, One Vision, or Another One Bites The Dust.

i'd agree with you there - it's an astounding piece of music in many ways, but we've just heard it too many times...

Not even close to what some of he nutters there have

my mate's mum has some dirty letters from brian may. she used to really like queen...

 

[Dubversion]

i was a massive Queen fan up to about The Game, after that I couldn't abide them. And then just went off them entirely, but i do have a soft spot for a lot of the early stuff - reckon Sheer Heart Attack is under-rated, for a start... But the rot started to set in on Jazz, The Game is pretty poor and then - pfft!

 

[killer b]

i'd agree album-wise, they dipped after news of the world - but there's still some great songs on all of the albums.

i though innuendo was a collosal return to form after years of mediocre albums too...

Now I'm Here

Simply cos it's one of the best guitar riffs ever!

i wrote a short story at school in English based on the Prophet's Song from ANATO

The title track is stunning.

Really?

They would be worth a fortune.

 

[LDR]

We Will Rock You gets my vote.

I fucking love Queen.

Nothing later than ANOTO for me, and preferably much earlier. I like Flick Of The Wrist and The Night Comes Down in particular.

 

[Onket]

Stone Cold Crazy or Sheer Heart Attack.

I've been to 3 or 4 Queen Conventions! The last one was in about 1998 though & it was getting proper weird back then, I dread to think what it's like now.

 

[moose]

I've never been to a convention, but i did see them at the NEC the week it opened cos I won tickets on Tiswas

 

[Strumpet]

Those were the days of our lives because of the poignancy of the song and the video, I still fill up when watching it.

Ohgod....same here.

Don't worry killa b - I still fucking hate queen.

 

[skunkboy69]

the one where he sings about his cat (delia?)

A great song.Brians guitar work on that is, I believe,his musical zenith.Best Queen song tho? no.God,I'm a huge Queen fan and this is an awful question.I love Brighton Rock.Then again Breakthru is fab too.I dunno ffs

 

[skunkboy69]

Now I'm Here

Simply cos it's one of the best guitar riffs ever!

And easy to play too

 

[skunkboy69]

Got to be Ogre Battle.





Out of the more popular ones, Seven Seas of Rye - great rock stomp that.

awwwwwwwwwwww I love Ogre Battle,and The Fairy Fellers Masterstroke.

This is my last post on this thread

 

[skunkboy69]

something off Queen 2, for sure.

This album was the best produced album they done I reckon.

Shhhhhhhhhh if you be quiet no one will notice.They'l all be reading a Pete Docherty thread

 

[Roadkill]

There's such a thing as a 'best' Queen song? 'Least worst', surely, and that's being kind!




....




Oh go on then ... I've listened to 'Having a Good Time' so many times at work, and seen so many people enjoying thrmselves with it on, that I can't hate it. It's shit, but it's funny shit in the same way as Chesney Hawkes: of comedic value only. That's about as close as I get to liking a Queen song...

 

[killer b]

*ahem*

haterz can fuck off elsewhere.

 

[killer b]

i've been listening to 'news of the world'. 'get down, make love' is a bit tasty, no?
