  1. The Millionaire Waltz-inspired guitar on a norwegian christmas album

    I've always thought that already the melody on the Queen song was borrowed from an older piece of music.

  2. Too Much Love Will Kill You on The Miracle album

    "Number 13 was skipped for bad luck. The album was already pressed before the singles." Isn't this a little bit ironic considering how things were going downhill at that time...

  3. Spandau Ballet's new singer Ross William Wild singing The Show Must Go On

    WOW, this is absolutely amazing! I love how he changed the melody slightly in a few places. TSMGO is my favourite song ever and I have to say this is the best cover I have heard of it. So much energy, just like Freddi...

  4. Play the Game...of ghost photo :)

    Queen played here during their career. I'm gonna let you have fun for a while and not reveal the date and location :D

  5. Freddie on tour - an aging athlete ?

    Funny, I've always found the Magic Tour shows the most energetic by Freddie. Just check out him singing TYMD at Wembley. He looks like he will explode any minute :D

  6. America turned away because of Prenter?

    It's funny when Trump says something like this, or in a way like this, people go crazy mocking him, but when Brian does it no-one bats an eye :D "We certainly dreamed, the quality of Made in Heaven being acclaimed so...

  7. America turned away because of Prenter?

    I've always understood that Queen consisted of four intelligent individuals, so I don't really buy this whole story. Sure, Prenter was a major piece of shit, but did he really cause all the problems? So ok, "Freddie d...

  9. Unpopular opinions related to the band

    1) I pretty much never listen to anything from the first three albums, except for Seven Seas of Rhye, Killer Queen, In the Lap of the Gods...Revisited and maybe Great King Rat and Keep Yourself Alive (when it comes on...

  10. Queen to receive Lifetime Achievement Award at the Grammy Awards

    flash00. wrote: Quite ironic considering Queen never won one Grammy in there entire career, clearly the Grammy's didn't consider their music good enough for an award, just as Led Zeppelin never won a Grammy. It's pret...

  11. Best introductory album?

    I thought the fun was in not choosing GH albums :D But even if included it would be difficult. If you choose GH1, the songs might be too "old" and the pop-rock (which is extremely important outside of the US) aspect w...

  12. Best introductory album?

    This might be a surprising choice, but please read my reasons: The Works (if the person in question is used to mainstream radio pop, re: age-comment) This album has everything Queen is famous for in an easy-to-absorb-...

  13. Finger clicks on 'AKOM' was done by Chris Rea

    Interesting! Is it also him on Killer Queen? ;)

  14. Thoughts on Thor Arnold and Lee Nolan's eleven year friendship with Freddie

    Thank you for taking your time to respond to all questions, guys! Here's something that I think has not been asked in either of the threads: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6w9ekmjBAeo This is the Live Aid finale with...

  17. Thoughts on Thor Arnold and Lee Nolan's eleven year friendship with Freddie

    Thor, Lee, I have a rather difficult question. It is not by any means my intention to attack this thread. I've said before that this thread is simply fantastic and has brought so much joy to us fans. But do you think...

  20. Thoughts on Thor Arnold and Lee Nolan's eleven year friendship with Freddie

    I don't really feel like asking anything right now, but I would like to say that it's really fantastic that you guys are doing this. I'm sure this thread will bring lots of joy to dozens (or, hopefully, hundreds) of p...
