^^^^^ I think in Gerald's world anything that isn't Freddie is shit, it's just funny that he hasn't realised that Freddie is all over Queen Forever and by complaining and sending it back he looks more if an idiot than he already is!

I'd like to hear this 'there is more to life than this' track that Gerry goes on about.

I can understand people calling Queen's first album "Queen I" as it is an untitled debut album and its easier to name it in that way because their second album is called "II" (perhaps because of the same unknown reasons, people call II Queen II) but I just cant understand why do people keep naming the new compilation "Queen Forever"?
The album name is Forever, just Forever... Unless Im missing something...

According to the press release, it is called Queen Forever. But according to Amazon and other sites, it is called Forever.

I thought the first album was particularly know as "Queen I" in Japan.......I think Freddie made some comments about that on a bootleg or two.............I always just call it "Queen" or the "first album".....and I never call Queen II just "II"......hmmm

The thing I think we're forgetting about (Queen) Forever is that apart from the three previously unreleased Queen tracks (not unreleased tracks!) the rest of the album would have been targetting those not so into Queen as us.
So with only a few hits on there, it would have introduced others who might have just had GH 1, 2 and maybe 3 to other great album tracks. I know I listened to it at a friend's house, and my mate and his spouse love Queen but don't know the complete collection. And they loved the way it was set out with the smattering of tracks from across the entire collection, unified by a single theme. And ALL of us sat there with baited breath listening to the first three tracks because they were new(ish!). I just loved LMIYHA, and the other two were interesting too I guess..
I think if Queen made a mistake,it was that Brian referred to Forever as sort of an MIH2. He did also say that it was a compilation album, but for some of us, the original MIH WAS a compilation album with just new Queen versions of solo tracks and just the three new originals.
This one wasn't structured the same, which is understandably why so many of us are disappointed by the dearth of new material. Maybe that's why they announced new material was coming so quickly once they gauged the general reaction of the dye-hard fans! I mean so many of us (but not everyone!) were over the moon with MIH, whereas Forever, after 19 years, has provided a few morsels, but that's about all really..

I bought the album and when I ripped it to my phone, the name of the album stated in the list of albums was Queen Forever.
