In your opinion, wich is the best/worst queen album?

I have always had a very profound theory on the untitled track, it's the final death throes of the Queen unit , beating its last and Freddie's transition to the afterlife ,they can be, no more, the comet has burned out gradually fading away...........................
That's how I've always listened to it.

(Freddie did once tell us to make our own minds up on what the music was about)

Mr Bad Guy is Queen's best.

Worst is Electric Fire.

Girlfriend's been spiking my cranberry juice again.

Maybe I should start a new thread......."name your top 15 Queen albums"......:P

Sheer Heart Attack.

Cosmos Rocks (but if you don't regard that as a proper Queen album (I don't either) then, Flash).

Nicely put - that is exactly how I thought after listening to that track.

Fav - innuendo (pure genius)
Least - Queen (first album)

In my opinion, there's a difference between "best" and "favorite", and some people don't seem to recognize this. Both are subjective, but the former is defined as "of the most excellent, effective, or desirable type or quality" while the latter is merely that which one likes the most. Some people may choose the best as their favorite, but the two shouldn't be confused. For example, my favorite movie is "The Princess Bride", but that doesn't mean I think it is the best film of all-time (having seen only a small portion of films considered "great", I wouldn't even consider myself qualified to make a judgement on that).

That being said, perhaps I'm an odd person to make that point, in light of the fact that my favorite Queen album and the one I consider the best are one and the same (Opera).

^ I think that's a good point.

And baring that in mind, I'd say the best is ANATO, and my favourite is SHA.

The worst imo, and my least favourite would still be TCR (or for the same reasons I said on my previous comment, Flash).

Best for me changes through the year between.Opera,Races,News World and Queen 2. Least favourite is rather obvious Flash Gordon.However as sountrack albums go it is pretty good and they did the best with what mainly Brian could come up with.A lot of fans like Innuendo but their is a problem with the mix as it sounds very flat plus All Gods People and Freddies song about his cat,rather spoil things.

For me Innuendo.Worst-Flash Gordon(maybe).
