Dan: "Wow... For once, I actually AGREE with Flashman! :|"

So, you would happily torture someone simply because they don't like a record as much as you do?

You'll go a long way kid.
FLASHMAN STRIKES AGAIN! Paul Rodgers is not the best thing since fried Fred.
it`s only word and its MAGNIFICENT!
Fucking and champagne
Its a bit crap really.
There's more to life than a bulletin board.
White Side is nice.
Black Side is awesome!!
Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?
I went through a period where ALL I would listen to would be Queen II. I think it's a truly amazing album... it's just so perfect, especially "White Queen" and "The March of the Black Queen". :)

Fairy and March are absolute masterpieces, but the rest are undistinguished Queen - IMHO.

In the previous poll of 30 QueenZoners, 5 of 6 songs from the "Black" side ranked in the top 1/3 of 188 songs, but ZERO of 5 songs from the "White" side were from the top 1/3 of 188 songs. Maybe the sides should have been named "Heaven" and "Hell"???? Well ... perhaps not ...

"White Side is nice.
Black Side is awesome!!"

Thank you for saying it that way. I was going to say something similar earlier. I think White Side would have worked a little better without 'The Loser In The End'. No offense to Roger but it just doesn't fit. I love the rest of the album though.
I think its their best LP ever(seems that Q2 and ADATR seem to flip flop as my fav) but i think i tend to go towards this one 6/10 times.The LP is like a visit to middle earth while on a acid trip.
I think White Queen is "haunting" and i like the words to FFMS (ever since janet showed me the painting, it became more lifelike)
at times, i wonder if the sond "Innuendo" would have fit on this LP
i am the topic stopper
Black side is the best.
The White side goes well until 'Loser in the End'. It looses the common thread of the album.

Queen 2 reminds me of Lord of The Rings for some odd reason ;) :P
When you open your heart to a smooth operator...
splandid!one of my favourite,along with Innuando.That's Brian's favourite too,as far as I remember.I like that atmosphere of the 70's.Apparently Freddie was highly influential on it.Keep rocking Fred.Wherever you are:(
Brilliant album - the only track which IMO isn't brilliant is Funny How Love Is. Still a nice track though :)
IMHO this the most album-oriented Queen album, like a concept album. It stands as a complete work of art rather than lots of individual songs.

I love Queen II, especially the white part, Brian did a great job, Especially White Queen. I just love the arrangements on Procession, FTS and White Queen!

Probably the best song (WQ) in the entire catalogue
