Are there any albums that you like except for that one song that grates on your nerves? This is not for those who think Hot Space would be fine without Dancer, Back Chat, Body Language, and Staying Power, or people like me who think The Miracle just stinks all the way around. One song that you think would have been better left off the album. To get the ball rolling, here are mine:
Queen: Jesus Jazz: In Only Seven Days The Game: Another One Bites the Dust Hot Space: Body Language The Works: Radio Ga Ga It's a Kind of Magic: Friends Will be Friends Inneundo: All God's People

I know that this is all about personal opinion, and I can kinda see where you're coming from with Jesus and In Only Seven Days (although I personally like those tracks), but can't agree with GAGA or FWBF :)
My opinion is that the following tracks mar their albums:
Modern Times Rock n Roll (Queen) The Loser In The End (Queen II) She Makes Me (SHA) Seaside Rendezvous/The Prophet's Song (NATO) White Man (DATR) SHA/Fight From The Inside/Get Down... (NOTW) Mustapha/Dead On Time/Fun It/Leaving Home.../ More Of That Jazz (Jazz) Dragon Attack (The Game) Dancer (Hot Space) Tear It Up/Machines (Works) My Baby Does Me (Miracle) All God's People (Innuendo)
I don't dislike any of the tracks on AKOM or MIH, although neither are my favourites lol....that honour goes to Queen II. Queen, MIH and then Innuendo follow!! My least favourite "album" is Flash.

For me: Innuendo (Delilah) Hot Space (Body Language) The Miracle (My Baby Does Me)
That's all I can think of...

Queen II - The Loser In The End News Of The World - Who Needs You Jazz - More Of That Jazz The Works - Machines A Kind Of Magic - Don't Lose Your Head
The only song I really don't like is Don't Lose Your Head. It should have been replaced with something like I Go Crazy, or one of those B-Sides. The others were just, in my opinion, the weakest on the album.

I thought Rain was by The Cult?
anyway, I've always hated Jesus on the album, but I actually like the DLL version on the 2011 bonus disk. For the first time I realized they might have been doing a pastiche of Black Sabbath, a plodding heavy riff and marvelous psychedelic guitar. Lyrically it may have been tongue in cheek as a contrast to the nature of the music. Just an observation. I could be dead wrong.

Can we play "what one album mars the otherwise perfect discography"?
I have a feeling you'd like my answer but I'll keep it to my Paul Rodgers self.

I wish there was a "like" button on these forums
Liam: The rest have lots of crap on them. ain't that the truth
Zebonka12: Can we play "what one album mars the otherwise perfect discography"?I have a feeling you'd like my answer but I'll keep it to my Paul Rodgers self. nice! Personally I don't count anything with a "+" in the name, but it would be a Miracle if I found one album which marred the otherwise perfect discography
Holly2003: mercury mars uranus Thank you doctor. Now I know what's wrong with it.

Sweet Lady - can't stand it
White Man - can't stand it
Without those songs on those particular albums, those would have been perfect. In addition, it would have been cool for ANATO and ADATR to be a double album.
