Elektra and Queen's back catalogue in the 80s
It was just Hollywood wanting to have their own version of GH and GHII.....remember there was their version of Greatest Hits that came out a little while after, as a complement to Classic Queen.

'Queen' The Debut Album You Hate To Love
What the heck is "hating to love" an album, anyway? You love it, but hate yourself for it, like it's a guilty pleasure? I love to love it, myself. ;)

Elektra and Queen's back catalogue in the 80s

Favorite part in a Queen song.

Has Brian gone slightly Mad?
