I second that.

Except for '39...it does strange things at "don't you hear me calling you..."

Well, most of the ones Brian sings are pretty tough for me. I have a really high voice and his are in an uncomfortable spot for me.

But as far as "most mind-boggling", which is what I think this was inteneded to be, definitely, without a doubt "Teo Toriatte". So hard to do effectively.

Teo Toriatte is one of my faves! I love singing that one... Japanese is a fun language. ;p

Queen songs, except for some of the ballads, are difficult to sing. We Will Rock You is very hard. You have to have a super voice.
I've managed to learn some of the ones I consider difficult one at a time. The ones I can sing now are: (I do it good enough for me)

Love of My Life
Bohemian Rapsody
Save Me
You Take My Breath Away
In the Lap of the Gods
Killer Queen
Somebody to Love (don't sing it good enough for me yet)
Melancoly Blues
Who Wants To Live For Ever
The Show Must Go On

Freddie sang in a key that is comfortable for women, but harder for man to imitate.

Unless you have a 'wussy-man' voice like I do. If you heard me talk, You'd know. ;p

Melancholy Blues - can't do the low tone.

Most of the songs, I butcher them with grace.

Certainly..My Melancholy Blues, Dear Friends and especially the Untitled Track on Made in Heaven.

Oh and Save Me. No really...I'm on fire!

I cant beleive nobody has put down Mustapha. I always thought that Dead on Time was tricky.

I think Slightly Mad is actually very difficult.

I too can sing them all very badly but when it comes to Love of my Life on A Night at the Opera I have to agree, I think he sings it superbly and it would be pretty hard to imitate

Many artists can get away with singing OK versions Queen songs if they do it in a different key that Freddie used to use.

There are very few singers who can sing 'The Show Must Go On' in the same key as Freddie. I think that's probably the most difficult Queen song to sing.

You're probably right about that. But "The Show Must Go On" is one of my favorite Queen songs to sing.

Another one that's difficult simply because of the range used (for me, at least) is "Jealousy". I can do the chorus quite nicely, but the verses are a bit too much.

Jealousy! A real fave and a great one to sing. Maybe I should cover it and send it in. What do you think?

Peace,
Adam.
