I love their music above all till 1980. talking about this on soulseek I just felt like starting a thread... I will start mentioning "death on two legs" they did some genious melodies and some incredible albums for me it is: queen II (black queen is la hostia) a day at the races (millionare waltz...) a night at the opera (we all know which one here...) |

gotta love the dense, layered vocal and guitar harmonies |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
err... my mother likes them |
||||||||
|

Haha, this looks familiar, deja vu... Yeah, I love them, Freddy Mercury was a MERCURIAL performer. I love their production style... larger than life, bombastic, and flamingly homosexual. A Night at the Opera and Sgt. Pepper are the earliest albums I can remember listening to, my mom had them on vinyl (and I scribbled all over the white Night at the Opera sleeve, it's ruined). |

Don't get me started. |

I enjoy Queen. |

larger than life, bombastic, and flamingly homosexual. That's made ironic by the fact that two of their most popular songs, "We Will Rock You" and "We Are The Champions" are big-time, classic sports anthems. ;) |

i REALLY like Queen, i thought Mercury's voice was just AMAZING.....what range, and so original. i was sad at his passing, because i woulda liked to have seen them JUST ONCE in concert, but i guess that era had already passed me by =/ i think i own their greatest hits (it's been a while since i listened) but their music is fun, and i loved the outrageousness of their preformances!!! i mean who can't recite THIS: *sings* Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide No escape from reality Open your eyes Look up to the skies and see *waynes world....party on* t hee |

I love Radio Ga Ga, it makes me weepy for some reason. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
man i have not thought about that song in forever.........it IS SAD......it's from a movie isn't it......damn i can't quite remember where i first heard that song!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think they're ok. When that Wayne's World movie came out tho... fuckin made me sick of them. (wasn't there a video and the radio played them all the time??) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just love so much of their stuff. Crazy Little Thing called Love (The Game) Dead On Time (Jazz) Somebody To Love (A day at the races) Invisible Man (The Miracle) 'The Song' (A Night at the Opera) got to love them. |

when mercury died I spent one week just listening to queen... what about: you take my breath away I am gonna listen to them right after mhtrtc which I am playing now |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was lucky enough to attend the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert back in '92. What a day, what a day. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, I'd have given anything to get a ticket and see a bunch of self-congratulating wankers slaughtering overrated pop tripe. hmm... I think I just had a Hicks moment |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
right now listening to the album: queen live at the BBC my fairy king |
||||||||
|
|

whats next nacmat... backstreet boys, i love their music... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well if you must know it a very beautiful day and we'd all come along to celebrate Freddies death, uh, I mean life. He may have been gay but he was a hell of a performer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you think queen were bad then just ignore this thread... its easy... even you can do it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Liar was a great fucking song too but I must admitt I love those songs composed by mercury... not so much those by roger taylor brian may did some of the great too (now I am here) john deacon´s were not very good for me either (except "you are my best friend") |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no i can't nacmat, what's next? u keep on doing this crap, eminem has it been... stuff like that...and all your top blabla things, its like you cant have your own opinion...looking forward to your backstreetboys thread thou. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

:D |

':)' |
||||||||

|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That's all you ever seem to mention is the Backstreet Boys. It's getting rather disturbing to be honest, are you trying to bully Nacmat into making a thread about them out of spite, just so you can delight in seeing your favourite band's name on an electronic board? You big sap. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I still doubt which one I prefer between: bohemian rhapsodhy and the march of the black queen and I cant either make my mind about my fav album between the two marx brothers albums |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
indeed i am.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it was about time a band like Queen had a proper thread in this MB for me Queen are one of the most important bands in music history... but of course thats just my opinion... great king rat (what a song) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think its on time you realize that this is an electronica messageboard...but u dont, because u are even more into this crappy music than electronica............ GIVE ME TEH BACKSTRETBOIS THREAD. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
you should listen to "sheer heart attack" I like that album so much... brighton rock is great track indeed. and btw... at the begining of the song ther is a background sound of a village party... well I think ovuca has that same sound in one of his tracks in "wasted sunday" you will love that track cuntychuck... believe me that album also has: killer queen, now I am here, the lap of the gods... omg Queen were really great!!! |

which is your favourite queen album ophecks? or anyone. and after 1980 which is your favourite? maybe my favourite is Queen II, but it is as I said between that one and the marx ones after 1980, I think I would go for innuendo |
||||||||

queen: The first album, simply entitled ‘Queen’ was released in July 1973. The band's first single, ‘Keep Yourself Alive’, was taken from this album, and it failed to chart - the only single in their entire career that did. queen II: Freddie's love of art surfaced on one track - The Fairy Fellers Masterstroke was inspired by a painting of the same name by Richard Dadd, which can now be seen in the Tate Gallery in London. |

pre 1980, I love so much of their stuff... Sheer Heart Attack A Night at the Opera Jazz and The Game Post 1980 It is a tie between Innuendo and The Miracle |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

'Made in Heaven' is DEFINATELY my favorite Queen album. You should pick it up if you haven't yet already. Take a look at this review: http://www.comcen.com.au/~dgiambru/heaven.htm |

it's ALL about the flash gordon early 90's hip-hop mix!!!!!!!!!!!! FLASH! one time! FLASH! two times! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I always thought that album should be bad... are you serious about it being good?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That's one of my least favorite albums by them... I still like it, but's all relative. Like most bands, it's the early stuff that makes me moist and the later work is just... kind of a footnote. I think Jazz is underrated... sooo DON'T. STOP. ME. NOOOOW. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah they werre a grreat band. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ophecks: jazz is good... but what tracks do you really like there there apart from: fat bottomed girls bycicle race dont stop me now let me entertain you dreamer´s ball dead on time the rest I find them a little weak |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think that the first years (till 1976) were really some of the best eras for a band that I know... I mean: queen, queen II, sheer heart attack, a night at the opera and a day at the races... 5 great albums in a row... excellent |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
then news of the world, jazz and the game where also very very good, but had some filler tracks in my opinion, even though those have some of the best singles I also love the flash soundtrack |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

A few of the songs are a little too glossy for my taste... but the rest are divine perfection. The first 6 tracks(minus the 5th one) are really the guts of the album. Download and listen to the following : 1. It's A Beautiful Day (Queen) 2:32 2. Made In Heaven (Mercury) 5:26 3. Let Me Live (Queen) 4:46 4. Mother Love (May/Mercury) 4:49 6. I Was Born To Love You (Mercury) 4:49 11. It's A Beautiful Day (Reprise) (Queen) 3:01 They should manufacture a carpet sample mimicking the texture of his chest in honor of the Mercury legacy. Imagine going to Home Depot and running your fingers through that.. *sigh Nothing's been the same since Freddie died. :( |

As for Roger Taylor's lyrical mastery... It's kinda hard not to relate ain't it? The machine of a dream Such a clean machine With the pistons a pumping And the hub caps all gleam When I'm holding your wheel All I hear is your gear When my hand's on your grease gun Oh it's like a disease son I'm in love with my car Gotta feel for my automobile Get a grip on my boy racer rollbar Such a thrill when your radials squeal Told my girl I'll have to forget her Rather buy me a new carburetor So she made tracks saying This is the end now Cars don't talk back They're just four wheeled friends now When I'm holding your wheel All I hear is your gear When I'm cruising in overdrive Don't have to listen to no run of the mill talk jive I'm in love with my car Gotta feel for my automobile I'm in love with my car String back gloves in my automolove |

Yeah, Jazz is a bit top-heavy and has some filler... but the good stuff is sooooo good. You're right, some of those 70's albums are all killer-no filler. And I'm all for some ''Mercury Carpet''! My mom would give it two thumbs up as well, I know she wanted to ''un-gay'' Freddie. |
