"millionaire waltz" for sure. the vocals are outstanding. aswell as the single instruments. and they fit like a glove.
.
BUT: anybody in for "good company" ? a masterpiece back in time. never heard of anyone's ambition to create a dixieland orchestra by guitar only!. and the outro... "kiss my ass" in a good way !

Millionaire Waltz is exquisite. Second choice would be Body Language. This song gets ripped apart but I think part of the problem for folk with this song is the context. I first heard it in a documentary about sex in the mid 80s before I became a fan. I was just a teenager and I watched it from the stairs behind my parents back on the sly - they thought I was in bed. :D So I never knew of any gay overtones, it's just a song about riding! And in the mid eighties the synth instruments didn't make it sound any naffer than the other music that was around and I didn't know Queen were "supposed" to be a rock band so that wasnt a problem for me either. Taken in those terms I do consider this to be a very u dersted fun song. Also shout out for Dancer.

It's Late and Was It All Worth It.

All highly personal, but for me Teo Toriate - I just love the melodies, lyrics, the keyboard and vocal arrangement (Particularly the single voices of Fred, Bri and Roger with no overdubbing) and the monumental chorus at the end. Secondly, it would be Flick ofc the Wrist - Deacy's sinewy bass lines, that weave in an away from the riff, Roger's blistering drumming in the middle break that is off-set so well by Fred and Deacy, topped off with Brian's manic solo, AND the sheer venom in the lead vocals. Honorable mention to White Queen but I am not sure if that ranks as underrated.

Millionaire Waltz and It's Late for mine. There are quite a few though. I just love John's bass work on Millionaire Waltz. It's sublime.

too many... of those left off GH and Deep Cuts excluding TYMD of course

1. Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke
2. You & I

John's bass on TMW is outstanding.

Mother love, beautiful song and the last of Freddie. Sheer heart attack full of power and clever way of Ala rock n roll way of singing by Freddie

Too much David Richards and too less Queen.

Was It All Worth It is like a Mr.Bad Guy song with different production (not necessarily better), and All God's People sounds like an extract from Barcelona sessions.
Still they are quite popular among fans, so I don't understand what do you mean by "underrated".

The sound of the last albums, despite many brilliant moments, is alienating for a lot of Queen fans from the 70's.

The Millionaire Waltz is #1. Also Dreamers Ball, Jealousy, My Melancholy Blues, Seaside Rendezvous.

And what about 2 songs from Flash Gordon: Execution Of Flash and The Kiss (both album version and early version)

The intro to Rock it (Prime Jive) always sounded as the right intro followed by the wrong song. I think Rock it intro would have deserved better than what follows. Still, I like it because of this strange feeling of unmatching. The second underrated would be Put out the fire.

Although it wasn't said in the OP, it would've been nice to stick to The Miracle and Innuendo tracks like I did - just because there is more to question with the quality of that material compared to, say, anything up to 1980.
