Since SHA is my favourite Queen album of them all, I'll have to go with it.It's just so unbelievably good. While Queen II has some "fillers" like SOMEDAY ONE DAY, THE LOSER IN THE END or FUNNY HOW LOVE IS, SHA has not one single weak song on it. For me the album shows the whole variety of styles Queen were able to deliver. It's simply amazing, that all these songs come from one band. [/QUOTE]

What about She Makes Me? Not exactly their finest moment IMO
BTW, I love the songs you called fillers on Queen II and I don't consider them fillers at all.

Queen II. I love the song on SHA actually alot more than Queen II. But it seems as though SHA is just a compilation of songs and that Queen II is like one big play with an intermission between the story of the White Queen and the Black Queen. Sorry to get all Alice In Wonderland on your asses...

nevermore is as great as lily of the valley so i am at a tie! no SHA for the sheer ingenius of its versatility but QUEEN II has always been Brian's favorite..so that gives it extra props

brian said SHA was his favorite, but he did mention Queen2 as his favorite once. I think those are his 2 favorites, he goes back and forth with those two.

For me, definitely SHA! Though Queen II has some great songs, I think the album is a little awkward. SHA flows smoothly, going into each song as if it was the most natural thing in the world, as if the songs had written themselves. SHA is, for me, their best album, with no flaws. It has serious songs (she makes me) and funny, light and camp songs (bring back that leroy brown) that never fail to cheer me up. Brighton rock is an amazing song, with Brian's solo brilliant. The triplets of the album, tenement funster, flick of the wrist and lily of the valley are just phenomenal. SHA is definitely the better of the two albums for me!
