I love the original love kills. Freddie vocal isvawesome
"Love kills" is such an underrated song and deserved to get to no1 in the charts. Freddie's vocals on that song were superb.
His vocals were also good on that rock version!!!1!
If they thought Love Kills was the worst, they clearly didn't hear Let's Turn It On.
The contrast between Lets Turn It On and My Fairy King is like the contrast between Live Aid Freddie and Freddie on november 23th 1991.

Love Kills is good song and I like it, what's some Golden Raspberry knows.:D
Man Made Paradise should have been a Queen single and Freds version on his Mr Bad Guy album was cool too.

i'm a fan of Let's Turn It On - don't see anything wrong with it. i'd have a problem with it as a Queen song - but as a Freddie solo - it was the best choice to start the album. It's basically Staying Power 2 and I wouldn't be surprised if there was a Queen version as a lost demo.
Anyone know why Love Kills wasn't on the Mr Bad Guy album ?
Sometimes I forget that Love Kills wasn't on Mr. Bad Guy album.
Presumably because Moroder got to it first.

Those two songs definitely elicited similar 'what the fuck is this?' reactions n_n
All in all, Frederick had some great songs which were done poorly. Whether 'Love Kills' was one of them or not is up to personal opinion. YMMV.
Freddie without Queen produced some crappy songs, but they all had potential.
Let's Turn It On lacked the "start'em up" drive required to open an album, in the same way that Party did on Miracle.
