  1. Where was the "The Prophet's Song"

    They also didn't talk about Brian playing harp on Love Of My Life, either. I recall reading where he was asked if he really learned to play harp for that song, and he said something like "learning isn't quite the righ...

  2. Under Pressure video film references

  3. Red Special / Yellow Jacket question

    Zebonka12 wrote: I'm pretty sure Brian said the Red Special was going in the box with him. And fair enough too. When Brian's dead, you won't ever hear an RS sing quite the same way. And besides, the thing is pretty we...

  4. Brian May or Jimmy Page

    I like Page more for his acoustic guitar work and composing. He came up with things like The Rain Song, The Song Remains The Same, Achilles Last Stand, and so forth. Brian's electric guitar playing is more interesting...

  5. Worst lyric line on any Queen song.

    One that always bugged me was "Gimme fried chicken" at the end of One Vision. That's such a cool song, with cool lyrics, and they end it on this dumb in joke. The other one that I've never liked was the useage of the...

  12. File under: Classic rock radio doesn't suck

  13. File under: Classic rock radio doesn't suck

    In case anyone misses my post in the Freddie b-day thread: Today, the local classic rock station, WNCX, played four Queen songs in a row, at 2:00 pm, in memory of Freddie's birthday. The songs played were: Somebody To...

  14. HAPPY BIRTHDAY FREDDIE!!!!!!

    Oh and one other thing: One of the albums I took to work was A Day At The Races. In Teo Torriate, when Freddie sang "When I'm gone", I started crying. I kept working, but I definitely had tears in my eyes.

  15. HAPPY BIRTHDAY FREDDIE!!!!!!

    I took a bunch of Queen CD's to work to listen to today. Because the one lady who works in the kitchen who doesn't like loud music was off today, I was able to crank it before we opened for lunch, and after we closed....

  16. HAPPY BIRTHDAY FREDDIE!!!!!!

    Oh and, Happy Birthday Freddie! I still miss you!

  17. How did you discover the band queen?

    As best as I recall, I remember hearing We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions back in the late 70's. Definitely when we still lived at Ft Leonard Wood, so it would have had to have been before summer of 1980, and...
