Hard Rock Queen

If you could put together an album... Let's say 16 or so songs of hard rock brought to you by Queen....what would they be?

All get it going by obvious one.

1. Stone cold crazy.

This is an outline of what I would put on a new Queen's Rocks compilation (some of these are already on Queen Rocks LP * ):

- modern time rock'n'roll
- great king rat
- march of the black queen
- white queen
- stone cold crazy*
- tenement funster
- sweet lady
- prophet's song
- tie your mother down*
- it's late*
- we will rock you (fast studio)
- dead on time
- let me entertain you
- save me
- tear it up*
- gimme the prize (without dialogue from the eye)
- i want it all*
- the hitman
- was it all worth it

........even if a new compilation would be really too !!!!

Sweet lady, hard as shit!

Sheer heart attack

Thread Title states "Hard Rock"
opening post also states

Punk Rock is NOT Hard Rock

I can't believe brENsKi is the only one to mention Ogre Battle. If we're talking hard rock, surely that should be near the top of the list. It certainly qualifies as hard rock much more than "Tear It Up", "Put Out The Fire" and "Don't Stop Me Now".

exactly. some people's idea of "Hard Rock" is astounding...these people must have delicate little ears.
Very little of Queen's catalogue would truly fit into the "Hard Rock" category - and very little besides even gets close to Hard Rock

these people haven't really listened to Purple, Zep, Sabbs etc have they?

and to those who say "punk" is still "rock" - that's akin to saying that "all cars are Fiats"

and no-one noticed my missing "p" off proto on my original post

So what the hell is 'roto-punk' anyway? lol

That's a totally inaccurate analogy. That would be like if I had said "all rock is punk", but I'm not saying that. Punk is a genre of rock. It is called punk ROCK, after all.
