all his songs with or without queen were simply superb. his mr bad guy album was great too.living on my own was a classic.

he put so much heart,love and emotions into his songs that it made you feel every little detail he intended

Totally agree with that, without doubt one of the greatest showmen ever

Bohemian Rhapsody is one of my favorites, but there are so many good Queen songs its hard to choose.

every time a post goes up i see another song and think "damn i forgot that one" one vision is another great.just goes to show what sort of level their music was at.how many bands can you honestly say you like every or very nearly every song?

i want to go and see the "we will rock you"musical at tottenham court road.its meant to be great.

There isn't a bad Queen song!

I actually cried when Freddy Mercury died, as I thought he was the best entertainer that ever lived and his music was a huge part of my teenage life .

Here is an often over-looked one - hope you enjoy!
