Yeah I'd say Radio Ga Ga definitely, maybe followed by the original Highlander version of 'A Kind of Magic'.

David Richards claims that 'Innuendo' actually started as a jam without Freddie, and that he loved what he was hearing so he joined in. Based on that, I'd say it's truly a collaborative effort.

""Innuendo" on the other hand arose from an improvisation in the Casino-Hall at Montreux. Freddie, who was sitting on the upper floor of the studio and could listen on, sighed and said: "Oh, I love it", rushed down and began to sing. Naturally a lot of detailed work was invested afterwards, but the original idea sprang from a spontaneous group improvisation."

It started without Fred, but from then on Freddie took it and evolved it. Like Radio Ga Ga started without Roger, it started with his son's quote, then Roger took the title and developed the song.

Other examples of that case: Show Must Go On, Pain Is So Close To Pleasure
John hated Hot Space. Frederick's favourite singer was not Paul Rodgers. Roger didn't compose 'Innuendo.' 'Bohemian Rhapsody' hasn't got 180 vocal overdubs.

"Radio Ga Ga started without Roger, it started with his son's quote"

That's stretching it a bit isn't it? :) Although Roger does have a history of songs originating from other titles/lines. Case in point: Under Pressure has the line 'Pressure on people on streets'. Somehow this ended up years later as solo song titles 'Pressure On' and 'People On Streets'. LOL. Coincidence? :-P

Well, if talking about songs Roger sang himself, the best for me is I'm In Love With My Car, especially from live concerts.
