I Havn't posted on Queenzone for ages, lost Interest in the whole scene. Let me start by saying I consider Innuendo the best Queen Album since their heyday, which I think is Queen To The Game, and Is overall stronger Than Made In Heaven, but I do find myself listening to MIH A lot after all these years. More than most Queen Albums. I Feel It's not far behind Innuendo. I'm gonna compare Tracks.
Innuendo > Beautiful Day
Slightly Mad < MIH. Very Close Though
Headlong < Let Me Live.
Can't live with you < Mother Love
Don't Try So Hard > My Life
All Gods People > Heaven For Everyone
These are The Days > Too Much Love
Dehila < you Don't Fool Me
Hitman. < A Winter's Tale
Bijou > Beautiful Day. Very close though
The Show Must Go On.
So That's a 6 to 5 Win for Innuendo, let's say 7 to 5. Giving Innuendo an extra point For the Classic TSMGO. Still pretty close.

I think 'Innuendo' is far better despite having one really awful song.

I don't know any 'awful' Queen song. BTW,Delilah is funny little song with terrific guitar/talk box work.

Bit odd to compare songs based on the tracknumber, don't you think? :')
Pingfah · Member since
Indeed, better to compare every track to every other track.
Somebody else can go first.

The Hitman is my least Favorite on Innuendo, the lyrics are a mess. Dililah Is Obviously a weaker Queen song, but for me It's Not Terrible. I agree that Innuendo Is The Stronger Album, but really Just wanted too give Credit to Brian, Rog, John for creating a Nice Piece of work In MIH. I Think It's Brian who Made this Album. His Guitar work on it Is Excellent, I'll give it the Edge on any 80's Queen album, aside From The Game.

The Hitman kicks ass. Lyrics are great at times and weak at times, I will give you that. RTWW is the most underrated song in the Queen catalog,
imo

I think The HitMan had Great Potential, Dililah and HitMan were the weakest part of the Album for me. Ride The Wild Wind Is one Of My Favorites. I put it above I Was Born To love you on My Comparing albums list. Innuendo The song Is One of Queens Best Songs, Just as Good as The epic songs of the 70's.

^ Why do you write like that, with capitals in the middle of sentences?
On topic: You can't compare it like that, in numbers. I prefer to think of it like this: Innuendo (the song) is more important to me than all of MIH. So even though the numbers of stinkers on the albums may not differ that much, Innuendo is still so far ahead it's not even funny.

Yeah. They're both inconsistent albums, but Innuendo's high points are much higher.
It occurred to me when thinking about this that Headlong must've taken some lyrical and thematic inspiration from Breakthru, a much more exciting song in my opinion.

Innuendo, without thinking it twice.
Innuendo, sin pensarlo dos veces.

I'd love to hear the stems from INNUENDO and JAZZ. ... so that all with audio mixing capabilities could remix the albums.
Tonally MIH is in a mix class above Innuendo, though INNUENDO is obviously their best album in the preceding 15 years.
I think some of the leveling inherent in Innuendo was due to matching Freddie's vocal takes versus the music. Possibly from overuse of programmed drums as well.
HITMAN could benefit from a lively mix.
HEADLONG as well
I'd be scared to touch INNUENDO: so maybe just a pass through the equalizer would do it
