One is definitely sarcastic , not sure on the other.
Definitely a masterpiece track on a masterpiece album. I need to be in the mood for it though and give it full attention , it’s not casual Queen listening.

The March Of The Black Queen is an experimental record, thank god they did it because it helped made Bohemian Rhapsody the huge song it is.
Queen II is an old record, Funny How Love Is in terms of sound quality is one of the worst sounding Queen songs (not musically or lyrically but it's production). Even SHA which was recorded just a year later sounds years fresher, I just wish Queen II did too because that's what in my opinion holds it back from more recognition.

There must be something wrong with my ears then because to me Queen II sounds as fresh and clear as the day it was recorded.

Very fresh. Right from the first notes of Procession.
Those comments would make more sense about the first album .

Agreed Brenski...the flow on side black (and on side white as well, for that matter) is just perfection. Those songs were made to go together and are unmatched, in my opinion.

The first time I listened to it was 2011 so I'm used to more modern stuff. It's a great record but it just sounds a bit tired compared to other Queen albums, it needs freshing up.

Funny How Love was an 'Wall Of Sound' experiment, if you are not into that kind of production then I can understand you don't like it, for me it is one of my favorite tracks.

definitely, which is why i said it sits nicely with the Lurex tracks.
i think, perhaps the Lurex recording inspired Freddie to try write his own "spector" treatment with RT Baker.

The song is way too simplistic for me. It could have more different segments.

Wasn't FHLI produced by the late Robin Cable, who loved the wall of sound approach?

Funny how love Is fine, It fits the flow of the album. Loser In The End doesn't. The only song I don't like.
