Any band has some personal differences between members and the difference between the members QUEEN couldn't be any more ....
John and Freddie couldn't be any further apart on the spectrum than any of the other two but... John Deacon and Freddie Mercury have shared, what would have been/which sounded like, some very close moments together in studio. The most famous being the almost two minute long jam together on Millionaires Waltz and the very beautiful little bass, piano and guitar trio on Love of my Life.
Along with a handful of other studio tracks that showcase some brilliance between the two, some unique moments during Freddie's song writing where Brian's guitar doesn't feature at all, where John's bass is the only other major instrument such as the unique Bass, Piano and vocals only track of Nevermore or the Bass Piano and drums of Melancholy Blues.
What is your guys favorite Freddie and John combination?? or some very significant parts that are easily missed in a song but stand out to you, that you would like to share?

I agree about 'Millionaire Waltz' and 'Love of My Life'. Also, 'Play the Game' and 'We Are the Champions'. And the guitar+bass combo on 'Crazy Little Thing'.
John hated Hot Space. Frederick's favourite singer was not Paul Rodgers. Roger didn't compose 'Innuendo.' 'Bohemian Rhapsody' hasn't got 180 vocal overdubs.

Cool cat for sure, Freddie solo Man made Paradise, Pain is so close to pleasure and One year of Love. This are massive songs.

"There can be only one " - Millionaire Waltz, wins hands down.
