Oh, and I remember Radio 2 playing the whole of Brighton Rock during the afternoon back in 2001. Quite a moment.

KYA gets played sparsely here in Philadelphia. I have never heard Liar on the radio. The only time I have heard any deep tracks from Queen was when Freddie passed & the DJ played about 6-7 songs including You & I and DSMN. I hear TYMD maybe once or twice a year at best. Where as 10 years ago is was non existant on the radio. I might have crashed if I heard It's Late or GKR or the like!

KYA is a bit of an odd song, based as it is around rhythmic playing of the same note. People kep saying Queen I is heavily influenced by Zep or Sabbath but I don;t recall hearing anything quite like KYA. Did any other guitarist/group use this technique before Brian did it?

There honestly needs to be a gorgeous hardback book of people's experience with Queen on the radio both in the U.S. and worldwide. From all sorts of opinions and walks of life from all time periods.

I live in the center of the United States and these are the songs I've heard played on the radio in the last few years:

Another One Bites The dust(quite a bit)
Fat Bottomed Girls(quite a bit)
Bohemian Rhapsody(quite a bit)
We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions(quite a bit)
Under Pressure(quite a bit)
Somebody to Love(once in a while)
Killer Queen(once in a while)
Crazy Little Thing(once in a while)
You're My Best Friend(once in a while)
Tie Your Mother Down(once in a while)
Keep Yourself Alive(maybe once a year)

About 10 years ago I heard "Brighton Rock" and "It's Late"(on different occaisions) and nearly thought my head would explode!

Has anyone ever heard The Prophet's Song on the radio? My local rock station, CHOM 97.7, played it last year. Never expected that!
Any way the wind blows...
