About the Queen CD, the cover is pretty kick ass. Hope they have it in Wally World tonight![/QUOTE]
Hi Erin! Long time no speak! Gonna see if I can find this "special" CD 2nite at the store! ;)[/QUOTE]
Hey, girl! Whassup? ;-) The CD's pretty cool...a nice Queen sampler. It's worth buying to get Innuendo on DVD.

"sell out"? I guess you don't remember Freddie saying all he wanted out of life was to make lots of money and spend it. Cha-ching! They sold out years ago, just like everyone else in the music *business*.[/QUOTE]
Yes, and Freddie Mercury also said he wouldn't make a very good house wife, so I think there is a little more to it than that. By sell out I exclusively meant that their overkill in compilations is not necessary. There is nothing wrong with wanting some extra cash in their pocket, but the over dosage in greatest hits compilations is, quite frankly, getting old.
If Queen desires to make a bigger impression in the United States (which is obvious), then perhaps they could make a more effective approach when they tour in the United States.

The answer = $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
If you were only worth about $120 000,000, wouldn't you want to make a few hundred thousand extra?

Maybe I would. But I sure as Hell wouldn't do it through Walmart! You couldn't pay me to buy it through them.

This item looks interesting! As the frontcover is indeed nice I am interested in the artwork of the inlay and the backcover. Any chance of a scan of one of those? Thanks.

Yeah well they obviously disagree with you. They would also probably be surprised that some of their fans are pitching such a fit over the fact that the largest US retailer approached them for a throwaway store exclusive release and they obliged. Some of you are acting like its the greatest betrayal of the 21st century. I seriously doubt this meaningless little release will set back work on boxed sets, archival DVD releases, or new albums, assuming there's any work actually being done on anything like that in the first place. Some of you people get up in arms over the most trivial things. Its a low priority release directed at promoting the brand - so low, in fact, that no one knew anything about it until it was already on sale. Big deal. If you think its such a travesty, don't buy it - which is what most of the world will also be doing. Otherwise who really gives a shit?

I'm hoping that all those people who think this is a sell out are not the same people who complain about the lack of promotion for Queen in the States. When I went to WalMart (and Sam's Club) last night, this CD occupied some nice rack space in the music section of America's largest retailer.
And judging by the use of titles on Vol 1, I'm guessing that this is intended to be a 3 volume set.

Well said. You can tell by the packaging that some thought went it this, way more so than Stone Cold Classics.

Agree...
Quit yer bitchin. Buy it or shaddup.
I'm buyin it.

Most bizarre track listing yet!
But it is nice to see a Queen disc out in the open in these types of stores, especially since their music sections aren't very big.

Nice to see it in the Walmart sale paper that came in the mail today.
Walmart is as to many Americans as the hedgehog hunters are to Brian.
