I know it is a hard decision. I love a lot of videos of the Queen. But i think I'll go for Crazy Little Thing Called Love. It's an amazing video. There is everything in it. Rock'n roll, dance, disco, pop, tribute to Elvis, motorbike ...:) It really reflects the era of the song. Leather jackets, Freddie's haircut, Brian's glasses and the dancers of course, they are fascinating.

So fellas, I wonder what your choice is and comments of your videos.

Peace

Unfortunately I can never choose just one favourite video, song, gig or even album. So, here goes.

* One Vision for the studio setting & shots (I am very fascinated by studio footage of the band, watching the making of One Vision is great!)

* Friends Will Be Friends for its wonderful colours and lighting, although the song itself is not particularly great, watching the video, especially by the end, makes me a bit emotional :)

* I Want It All for its simpleness. It looks very raw and I can imagine it would look something similar if Queen performed it live in 1989 (so Brian and Roger mentioned on the Greatest Video Hits DVD commentary).

* Scandal, not because the video is very good but because Freddie looks badass to me in it. He gave all his energy into it.

* I'm Going Slightly Mad 'cos it's bizarre and entertaining to watch.

Talking about videos, if anyone's interested I made 2 Queen montages a while ago, a bit similar to DoRo style. Links are in my sig :)

I'm Going Slightly Mad.
Very Tim Burton-ish, It fits the song perfectly, and I love Freddie's smile at the end, and John's 'crying' face.

I quite like the montage of 80's footage in The Show Must Go On. It tells a story the way its edited.

Princess of the Universe - It's Queen rocking at their 80's best. The band look on top form, plus Christopher Lambert vs Freddie. Great stuff.

Hammer to Fall - Again, they all look on top form. For a simple/live looking setting, I think it beats the video to I Want It All, where Freddie's starting to look ill (I always found that video a little bland).

Radio GaGa - It's a classic, 'nuff said.

Innuendo - The video suits the song perfectly, very artistic.

Yes, that's also a good one.

'Hammer to Fall' it captures Queen live in 4 minutes.

The first video, and if you didn't know Queen before seeing it, you certainly knew them after, "Bohemian Rhapsody". My first introduction to Queen, and have been stuck on them for the last 40 years.

,I love all the videos from A KInd Of Magic, The Miracle and Innuendo albums. If I had to select one I'd go with "I'm Going Slightly Mad".

Seeing "Crazy little thing called love" for the first time Queen looked re-invented and fresh, i love this video
Freddie looks so hip and stylish!
" Friends will be friends" is brilliant as well.
