Ok the start is kinda boring ill grant that.
But I think its a very cool track once it gets to the line "you got red lips, snakes in your eyes".
From there it really picks up and I love when everything cuts out and it's just Freddie clicking "I got a case of body language".

The reason I hate it is agreed on lack of Brians guitar
I like it too. And I really enjoy the video.
The only songs I just cant stand are Loser in the end and Calling all Girls, I hate those songs.

^ that's why.
Seriously.
Mercury may be at his vocal best on side 1 of Hot Space, but this song was the beginning of the end for Queen in America. Just about everything that made Queen popular was eliminated from the equation.

Because the song creeps me out.
In my opinion Calling All Girls is much more interesting than Body Language. But I admire Freddie's bravery for insisting on the latter (and as a single, too). Constant power to surprise. :-)
I totally love Body Language. It is not the usual Queen song, but why does it have to be? I like the video as well, though somebody should teach Brian how to click his fingers. John looks quite sexy!
I thought the live version was good.
Because it showcases the most the transformation of glam rock Freddie to gay clone Freddie. Both in visuals and artistry.
Also the sauna concept was demonised due to AIDS and the bathhouses of U.S (San Fransisco especially). There is a dark tone of explicit (homo)sexuality that afterwards had been associated with death itshelf.
On a more obvious tone, it is the one track that detaches Queen the most from their rock oriented roots.

I don t like the song
i think is BL is a mix of bad taste and bad song.
But i also think is hated because it was a single and a more known song, than for example, Staying Power (even if this one is lighter and better song).
But yeah, compare Body Language with Under Pressure or It's a Hard Life, the difference on the tone and the quality is there.

I get rape associations from the lyrics.
Paul Prenter has all the blame. Guilty.

^ this.
The reason why I don't like it ( it = the album version) is because it's a shitty song. However I enjoy most of the live versions
