I have read, on this site and others, Body Language being pretty much universally trashed as Queens worst song, or Freddie worst moment, or whatever....call me (stone cold?) crazy, but this song actually kinda WORKS for me....its not one of my favorite Queen songs by a longshot (thatd be something like Liar, or The Prophet's Song) but I wouldnt say I hate it, at least.....

Well...it's good.
I think Hot Space is on my top 20, but after the 70s stuff...

Worst song released by Queen, next to 'Party'.
Well it seems that it is not that bad at all. It reached #4 in the Dutch Charts.
It reached #11 in the U.S., but it still sucks.
Yeah, well, BL isn’t any jewel in crown, but I should say, that Delilah with all that miaaauw is worse IMO.
you can't really compare Delilah with Body language. Delilah was an (understandable)indulgence... whereas Body language is just awful.
It's not musically a great piece, but it works for me. It has something... I love it.
I wouldn’t say any word against Delilah, if it’d be on Freddie solo CD. But it is on Queen one (and more to it, on such good as Innuendo is) and it really bothers me. No more, no less.
I cannot say it is the worst, but it is a fun song, sort of like a song to be taken lightly. As Freddie said, if you don't wanna listen, then fucking go home! If you don't like Body Language, nobody forces you to!
thats kinda what I think.......its a throwaway tune....nothing too consequential, but ok

You're very harsh with your words. People have their opinions, so don't try to force yours onto us. We're not all supposed to like every Queen song, and if you do, then that's unnatural and pathetic.
MY opinion? 'Body Language' sucks. YOUR opinion? You like it. Life goes on.
I don't mind Body Language. Sure, it's not the most lyrically amazing song they've done, but it's good for what it is.
Im trying to remember what I thought of this song when I first heard it. To be honest, I dont think I thought much of it, it was just ok. But I do remember wishing I could see the video for it, because it had been banned. Some 20+ years later, I eventually get to see it, and what a disapointment, not even a flash of a boob.
I just like the chorus, it is kinda catchy.
