It's tough to choose, but here's my best stab. The numbers don't do the selections justice, so consider these in no particular order, just general Top 5 favourites...
Roger:
1) Foreign Sand
2) A Kind Of Magic (Album Mix)
3) New Dark Ages
4) Beautiful Dreams
5) Hijack My Heart
John:
1) Pain Is So Close To Pleasure (Extended Mix) (co-written with Freddie)
2) Misfire
3) You're My Best Friend
4) Spread Your Wings
5) You And I (I think this could have been a hit single if it had been an A side)
Brian:
1) '39
2) Too Much Love Will Kill You (both solo and Queen versions, for different reasons)
3) Brighton Rock (particularly the epic live versions)
4) The Business
5) It's Late
Freddie:
1) The March Of The Black Queen
2) Keep Passing The Open Windows
3) Was It All Worth It
4) Living On My Own (particularly the 1993 Radio Mix)
5) How Can I Go On (Single Version)
I was going to do Honorary mentions for each member, but instead, here are my favourite tracks credited to Queen as a band (whether or not the original author was a single member):
Hang On In There
Let Me Live (Original/Banned Version)
Under Pressure (with David Bowie)
One Vision
You Don't Fool Me
So, yeah, those are my picks. And these aren't to say my picks are their "best songs," they're just my favourites, which either resonate with me deeply or just make me feel really good when I hear them.
