Recommended Posts

Guest Still Fly

OKAY. So I'm really not into that kinda stuff. But I was at a friends house and she played a Queen's Greatest hits album.... and I liked it. What are some songs that are worth downloading? I know I can depend on you guys.. :)

You can't go wrong with Bohemian Rhapsody, and personally I like Fat Bottom Girls.

Purple classics album or the blue one?

 

Where should I begin?

 

Divided into three sections because some people don't like it when Queen doesn't play one of their loud anthems. The ones in the green get my highest recommendation, but try at least some of the others, too.

 

(omitting some of the obvious classics -- BoRhap, We Are the Champions, etc.)

 

Softer stuff

 

'39

All Dead, All Dead

The Days of Our Lives

Dreamers Ball

Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke

Good Company

Lily of the Valley

Long Away

My Fairy King (right now, it's my favorite song of theirs)

Nevermore

The Night Comes Down

Mad the Swine

Sail Away Sweet Sister

The Show Must Go On

Spread Your Wings

Teo Torriatte

White Queen

Who Wants to Live Forever

You Take My Breath Away

 

Somewhere in the middle

 

Great King Rat

Innuendo

It's Late (anthem-ish)

Killer Queen

March of the Black Queen

Mustapha

Ogre Battle

Prophet's Song

Save Me

Seven Seas of Rhye (the version with lyrics)

Somebody to Love

You and I

 

Louder stuff

 

Brighton Rock

Death on Two Legs

Dragon Attack

Headlong

I Want It All

I Want to Break Free

In the Lap of the Gods... Revisited (simple, anthem-ism, and effective)

Keep Yourself Alive

Let Me Entertain You

Liar

More of That Jazz

Princes of the Universe

Sheer Heart Attack (punk-ish; amazingly, this was written in 1974 although it was released in 1977)

If you get the Classic Queen and the Queen Greatest Hits CDs from the 90's, you can't go wrong.

 

And for variety, download Weird Al's "Bohemian Polka". It works, but it's so, so wrong...

Most of the stuff on A Night at the Opera is pretty damned good if I may say so myself, especially Bohemian Rhapsody and the Prophet's Song.

I always liked "Friends Will be Friends" myself, but some of the other songs already mentioned are much better, so download that one later ;)
