Just for fun - your 'best of' Queen in track order

The rules:

Make your 'best of' or 'least objectionable' Queen disc by:

The band released 13 studio albums while Freddie was alive. ('Flash Gordon' was a soundtrack, and does not count)
1. Because they released 13 studio albums, your "Best Of" album must have 13 songs on it.
2. Each album must be represented (therefore, only one song per album).
3. Each song must be in the same track place that it is on for its original respective album (example: if you choose to have 'Tie Your Mother Down', it must be your first song, since it is the first song on 'A Day at the Races').

*Use the order of the 'Innuendo' CD.

*No official bonus releases are allowed.

4. Because of 'Made in Heaven', your bonus track can be any song from any position on that album.
5. And, if you so wish, you can add any additional 'Flash' song as an extra bonus to finish it off.
6. There are no time restraints.

1. Keep Yourself Alive
2. Father To Son
3. Jealousy
4. I Want It All
5. Crazy Little Thing Called Love
6. Somebody To Love
7. Keep Passing The Open Windows
8. Calling All Girls
9. Princes Of The Universe
10. It's Late
11. Bohemian Rhapsody
12. The Show Must Go On
13. In The Lap of the Gods (revisited)
(a great closer...but ....)

14. Let Me Live
15. The Hero

My fairy king
March of the black queen

Jealousy
Sail away sweet sister
Cool cat

It's A Hard Life
Flick Of The Wrist
Let Me Entertain You
White Man
The Prophet's Song
It's Late

bonus tracks
The Kiss

All but one so far are total fails.....use one #1 track, one #2 track, one #3 track.....not four #10s.

I had seen these rules listed for another band, and thought I'd place it here for a bit of fun to see what one is left with due to 'conflicts'. Tried a couple lists for The Beatles to kill time, and was surprised at how weak their lists were (too many at the same spot, and of course, all the nonalbum singles)

1. Innuendo
2. You Take My Breath Away
3. White Queen
4. All Dead, All Dead
5. '39
6. Who Wants to Live Forever
7. Modern Times Rock 'n' Roll
8. Hammer to Fall
9. Was It All Worth It
10. Save Me
11. Under Pressure
12. Don't Stop Me Now
13. In the Lap of the Gods ... Revisited

/ Haha, think they're just taking the piss!
