1 for The Hitman?? Are you serious??



Yeah, I'm serious. It reminded me of Spinal Tap from the very first time I heard it. Always felt the lyrics were so bad that even though they must have been attempting to be funny, they failed even at that. The riff, the lyrics = 1.


John Deacon took another look at Hitman, and even he could not fix it.

Agreed
I prefer The Miracle.
I can´t stand Headlong, Delilah and I´m Going Slightly Mad. And that version of I Can´t Live With You with electronic drums is not very good...Much better the Queen Rock version.
Yeah it's odd - the songs people generally say are the reasons they prefer Innuendo are songs I don't 'get'. For example, I think Headlong is utter crap. Probably the only Queen single I'm just not interested in. Even at the time I was like wtf.

ATTACHMENT

I love "All gods People" more than anyone else else seems to.

The Miracle - Innuendo - Made in Heaven
Are a really great trilogy.
Given the circumstance Made in Heaven fits in really well, i just wish No one but you was on there to bookend.
I liked them at the time, but really the “ rockers” on Innuendo don’t work, including Headlong.

The Miracle has more real energy. Even Party/Khasoggi are more like statements of intent rather than songs. A brave way to open before a run of of singles, a couple of laid back tunes and a storming finish.
The Miracle
1. "Party" 5
2. "Khashoggi's Ship" 6
3. "The Miracle" 8
4. "I Want It All" 9
5. "The Invisible Man" 5.5
6. "Breakthru" 6
7. "Rain Must Fall" 5
8. "Scandal" 6.5
9. "My Baby Does Me" 5
10. "Was It All Worth It" 9
=65 or 6.5 out of 10

Innuendo

2. "I'm Going Slightly Mad" 7
3. "Headlong" 6.5
4. "I Can't Live with You" 6

Although I love The Miracle, Innuendo is a masterpiece... Sorry easy win, it could only compete with a couple of the best 70s albums.

Sorry for the double post but I cannot edit properly from my phone :/
i ever felt that "innuendo" was a quickshoot. of course... because freddie had a limited time. but the lack of REAL drums speaks a whole world. i cannot stand all the tracks that are done with synthetical kind of drums. roger was capable, but it seems he had not the interest do drum some. the songs, indeed, are mostly great. and yes... a "rain must fall" is any worth as a "miracle" or "innuendo" are. but ... oh... but... why all those synthetical instruments ?
