Bohemian Rhapsody |
A Night At The Opera |
The ultimate Queen song, without doubt the finest and most original song ever written. |
2. |
Innuendo |
Innuendo |
What can I say? Brilliant song, brillaint video! Probbaly Queen's finest recent song. |
3. |
The Show Must Go On |
Innuendo |
A great finale, which, in my opinion, is Freddie's final farewell: "My make-up
may be flaking, but my smile still stays on" |
4. |
Somebody To Love |
A Day At The Races |
Freddie writing and crooning at his best! This song was magical live. |
5. |
The March Of The Black Queen |
Queen II |
A wonderfully complex and lyrically amazing example of Queen's early work. Probably the prequel to Bohemian Rhapsody. |
6. |
Who Wants To Live Forever |
A Kind Of Magic |
A ballad by Brian that he wrote on the tour bus after seeing the Highlander set. It's so powerful that it sends chills down my spine. |
7. |
Love Of My Life |
A Night At The Opera |
A beautiful and tender ballad written by Freddie. This one just wrenches your heartstrings. |
8. |
Hammer To Fall |
The Works |
Totally hard rock, in the way that only our Brian can. The lyrics are about the inevitability of death. |
9. |
Under Pressure |
Hot Space |
A magical duet with David Bowie, originally titled "Men At Work". |
10. |
Don't Stop Me Now |
Jazz |
100% a la Fred! Just hearing it raises a smile; "I'm having a good time, having a good time..." |
