The Nation's Favourite Queen Song. Next Tuesday, 11th Nov. ITV, 9pm- 10.30pm. repeated next day, 10.40pm. The obvious one will surely be No.1.
I don't know why they don't pluralise this.
prediction:
1. Bo Rap
2. Dont Stop Me Now
3. We Are The Champions
4. We Will Rock You
5. Somebody To Love
6. Under Pressure
7. Radio Ga ga
8. I Want To Break Free
9. Flash
10. These Are The days Of Our Lives
ought to be
1. Seven Seas Of Rhye
2. Killer Queen
and then some others...
I would be surprised if Flash was in there, apart from that it looks about right.
My fave Queen era is the Miracle album. I want It all, Breakthru (one of their best songs imo) Invisable man, Headlonmg etc. None of those will probably be in the chart
What about my faves "Another One Bites The Dust" or "The Show Must Go On" both top 10 contenders surely?
My easy favourite would be 'Who Wants to Live Forever'. Will be criminally too low though here unfortunately because they have far too many more "signature"/well-known songs.
My favourite is Innuendo but i don't think that one would even be top 10.
1 Innuendo
2 These are The Days of Our Lives
3 The Show Must Go On
4 Don't Stop Me Now
Innuendo is.Muse's entire career in 6 mins.
Think Popchartfreak has it nailed apart from 'Another One Bites the Dust' and 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love' will probably be in there...maybe 'Killer Queen' too.
Would expect 'You're my Best Friend', 'It's a Hard Life', 'It's a Kind of Magic', 'One Vision', 'I Want it All' and both sides of 'Bicycle Race' and 'Fat Bottomed Girls' to be fighting it out too. Maybe even 'Headlong' - boop diddy diddy, boop diddy doo....
Don't like any Queen songs.
Is this list will base on the sales or peoples voting ?
Prediction:
1. Bo Rap
2. The Show Must Go On
3. We Are The Champions
4. We Will Rock You
5. Killer Queen
6. Under Pressure
7. Another One Bites The Dust
8. Radio GaGa
9. Who Wants to Live Forever
10. Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Not sure about British peoples, but possible it's the most polpular Queen's songs in Russia.
Bohemian Rhapsody won the 'Nation's favourite number 1' poll two years ago, assuming this is the same format as that then...yeah, that's like the most obvious winner ever surely?! (Deserved though, fab song, I do hope You're My Best Friend does well too though, one of my favourites from them and doesn't seem to always be rated in the same league as their other classics)
I assume this is for the new album release!!
These Are the Days of our Lives always makes me emotional!
So many good songs!
Does anyone one have the rundown? I missed it.
somebody put this list on the net:
20. I Want It All
19. It's A Hard Life
18. One Vision
17. You're My Best Friend
16. Seven Seas Of Rhye
15.The Show Must Go On
14. Another One Bites The Dust
13. Crazy Little Thing Called Love
12. A Kind Of Magic
11. Who Wants To Live Forever
10. Somebody To Love
9. I'm Going Slightly Mad!!!???
8. Radio Ga Ga
7. Under Pressure
6. Killer Queen
5. We Are The Champions
4. I Want To Break Free
3. Don't Stop Me Now
2. We Will Rock You
1. Bohemian Rhapsody
but in the version I saw 9 was These Are The Days Of Our Lives, so someone having a larf!
My taste in Queen seems to differ from the general public. I'm certainly not the biggest fan of Bohemian Rhapsody or We Are The Champions, while Don't Stop Me Now seems to get worse every time I hear it. Wouldn't have We Will Rock You too high up my personal list either.
My favourites would be: Somebody To Love, Under Pressure, Radio Ga Ga, I Want To Break Free, A Kind of Magic and Who Wants To Live Forever. The latter song should have been one of their biggest hits!
Believe it or not I had never heard These Are The Days Of Our Lives before yesterday. Lovely song, and the video was very sad to see.
Cheers popchartfreak - I'd actually put I'm Going Slightly Mad in my top 10, but I don't think many would.
I wouldn't have put We Are The Champions or We Will Rock You anywhere near my top five.
If I was going by the singles then my Top 5 would be:
Bohemian Rhapsody
Now I'm Here
One Vision
Play The Game
Fat Bottomed Girls
But out of any Queen tracks they would probably be:
The March of the Black Queen
Bohemian Rhapsody
Ogre Battle
Get Down, Make Love
Tie Your Mother Down
If I could choose non-singles then my list would probably include '39 and The Prophet Song, the latter simply for being even more OTT than Bohemian Rhapsody
Never been that big a fan of '39 but The Prophet Song is seriously off the scale!
I just like the simplicity of '39, particularly given the nature of some of the other songs on A Night At The Opera. It was an oasis of sanity in the midst of some gloriously ridiculous material.
Surprised that "Hammer to Fall" didn't make the top 20, it's probably my favourite Queen single. Never really went any deeper that the Platinum Collection, so wouldn't be too familiar with their album tracks.
Agree with Hammer to Fall.
Listened to Greatest Hits II the other night and was shocked by how bad a lot of it is.
After The Works came out I gave up on Queen. Radio Gaga was ploddy at best and I Want to Break Free made me squirm.
Then came A Kind of Magic and then the rot set in (apart from One Vision.)
I'd given up before The Works
I liked Jazz but Hot Space was where it all started to go wrong.
