Queen songs that anger you when you hear?

Body Language and Scandal for me.
Or to cut it short... Every single lambert performance.

Love Scandal. One of my faves. Body Language is a bit hit and miss for me. I'm not a massive fan of Drowse. That kind of angers me. Its a bit of a depressing song. Any others anyone?

None. I find it odd that anyone would get angry over such a thing.

I used to despise Don't Try Suicide, now I actually kinda like it....and I just about always skip Delilah, and One Year Of Love, but I wouldn't say any of them anger me.....

Body Language gets all kinds of hate, but I never got that....sure it's no BoRhap, or even no Under Pressure if you wanna stick to Hot Space, but it's a moderately catchy discoey song, what's so bad about that? (Maybe I don't have the same kind of reaction to it that someone who grew up as a fan of Queen's heavier stuff in the 70s would have) I bet if it had been released as a Freddie solo song (which it almost is, anyway) it would be a lot more liked now...

The one song on HS that does annoy me slightly is Action This Day. Not that it's a bad song, I just think it would be so much better an actual guitar solo in place of that horn solo (which I always thought was a synth, but its not)

I love the vocals on Body Language. Freddie is purely amazing in it. I don't listen to it often but when I do it's just because of that.

I love Scandal, everything about it, IMO it's heaps better than Party or Rain Must Fall.

Not sure there is a Queen song which upsets me. There are songs I skip though.

None of them anger me but DOTL gets the blood rushing, as do White Man and Ride The Wild Wind (even if it sounds like a certain Bangles song)


Only song they did that bugs me (if you don't count the awful title and YEEEEEAAAHHH!'S of Surf's up, schools out) is STAYING POWER.

Maybe with a dryer tight drum sound and EWF performing it it could be less awful. But in general. .. a horrible song with a good middle bit.

I get annoyed when I hear One Vision live. They play it messy and Freddie is trying to keep up the lyrics.

Surely angry is the wrong word. It's only music.

It's only a bloody record, people get so excited about these things! :P

None of them anger me, but there are some which are for me really painful for listening, like the intro to You Take My Breath Away or Play The Game, or the middle part of Get Down Make Love etc.

I had One Year of Love playing over and over in my head for much of the duration of a holiday I took late last year. I didn't know all the words (still don't), so it was a matter of about half the song, probably all jumbled up, looping in my mind. I'm very good at visualising (auralising?) music in my head, so Freddie's somewhat strained full voice was palpable, only making it all the more irritating. So yeah, One Year of Love doesn't anger me, but I can do without it.

Sheer Heart Attack is the one song that I can't stand. The intro and 1st verse is cool live, but the chorus always bugs me, and don't get me started on the feedback-effect on the album version.

The wasted potential of certain tracks on Made in Heaven is one thing which is disappointing, though not quite angering. I feel Let Me Live would've been nice with Brian and Roger singing the choir part, and Mother Love would have been much better with a simpler ending - maybe a few more bars of music to allow everything to resonate, rather than going almost straight into what's in my opinion a cheesy montage of Freddie's life. Too Much Love Will Kill You would've been excellent with real piano rather than that bright sounding keyboard. I Was Born To Love You is just weird when it uses the 'Hahaha, it's magic!' sample - too meta for my liking, maybe, which makes it hard to look at it as just another Queen track, rather than a pastiche.

One thing which does really bother me is the section just before the guitar solo in I Can't Live With You. 'I can't live - I can't live - I can't - I can't live with you'. I think it's because they don't follow the song's rhythm. Now, that's not inherently a bad thing - it's used to incredible effect with the 'You can do it' vocals in Lap of the Gods...Revisited - but in the case of I Can't Live With You, it kills the momentum somewhat. Thankfully, Freddie's 'but baby, I'll never, ever leave you' and the following guitar solo are great enough to resurrect it.

*I'm not sure how to describe it - I don't mean the time signature or the tempo... rather, I mean where the 'and' is positioned between the counts of 1, 2, 3, 4. If anyone can tell me the term for this I'll be very appreciative.

Getting angry over a Queen song?
Dude....

Even the Lambert collabo. I mean, I don't like it and would never pay money to see it. But as long as Brian and Rog like it and can entertain a bunch of people with it, I can't see what's wrong with it.

Same goes for the Hot Space sauce, the vodka and the LP box set.

You don't have to listen to the songs or buy the products...

Queen.....anger?........What the he'll you on about?
