Brian
Hammer To Fall Now Im Here We Will Rock you Fat Bottomed Girls The Show Must go on

Show Must Go On is a collaboration. Brian did contribute more than the others, but he wasn't the sole writer, as opposed to Roger on Days of Our Lives, who indeed wrote both chords, melody and lyrics (maybe the arrangement was by all four, but the songwriting is by one in that case).

Not with this Queen fan. I ADORE Play The Game. I think it's one of Queen's most gorgeous songs and the perfect way to open The Game. :D :D :D

Some of Freddie's greatest songs:
Bo Rhap It's A Hard Life A Winter's Tale Seven Seas Somebody to Love
Great Brian songs:
Now I'm Here Headlong We Will Rock You '39 Hammer to Fall
Good Roger compositions:
Days of Our Lives Breakthru A Kind of Magic Radio Ga Ga The Invisible Man (Side note: I'm In Love With My Car since its Roger's highlight on ANATO)
Fab John tracks:
AOBTD Friends Will Be Friends (yes, I know Freddie's co-writer but it still has hints of John's writing in there) IWTBF You're My Best Friend
[And they say Deaky didn't write great hits... that selection disproves it completely]

Freddie: 1. My fairy king {I know it's a very typical pick out of all the hardcore queen fans] 2. In the lap of the gods {I love both versions, but I especially love the first one} 3. Love of my life 4. It's a hard life 5. Life is real {song for lennon] {I know the line "Loving like a whore" can be seen as quite offensive, but then look at all the grim material both Fred and Brian wrote in their heyday]
I know I could have chosen the march of the black queen, lilly of the valley, and even borhap. This are just songs that just seep deep down in my soul. This are the special little masterpieces that i'll treasure forever.
Brian: 1. Someday oneday 2. 39' 3. Long away 4. All dead, All dead 5. Sail away sweet sister
Brian wrote a plethora of beautifully written ballads. I just dove into the barrel and chose the ones that really got to me. If the list could be slightly extended to seven or eight songs. I'd probably choose Leaving home [such an underappreciated number], las palabras de amour, and who wants to live forever [especially live].
John: 1. You and I 2. Spread your wings 3. In ony seven days 4. Need your loving tonight 5. Misfire [love this little jamaican ditty]
That doesn't mean I dislike your my best friend or even I want to break free, I just chose the ones [again] that get to me the most. I personally believe another one bites the dust was a quadrupal effort, just listening to all the sound effects during the middle eight, makes you think everyone must have joined in. John probably wrote the lyrics and brought in the little bassline he heard from chic, then Freddie gave it something new and fresh with his fabulous vocals, and Roger and Brian probably contributed in their instrumental departments. Sorry for that long rant!
Roger: 1. Drowse 2. Tenement funster 3. Fun it 4. Rock it 5. Moder times rock n' roll [especially live when it's thrown in with the encore]
