for me : killer queen & the show must go on.
before that i've heard bohemian rhapsody and bicycle race and liked them but when i listened to killer queen and TSMGO i said to myself " hey this band has somethang especial" and listened more and more of them and become a fan.
(hooom what a poor english i have, hope u get what i said)
Crazy Little Thing Called Love, classic.

I heard Bohemian Rhapsody, Prophet's Song, and Death on Two Legs, but never really cared for any of them...

And then I heard We Are the Champions on The Queen Collection...Hearing the Royal Philharmonic play Queen made me listen to them again, and I am now quite besotted with them (and I am also very fond of those three songs, to say the least)!

Ja ne!
No song, But hearing that Freddie's last words were 'pee pee' really did it for me....a true hero
"On the first day Pim & Niek created a heavenly occupation. Pim & Niek blessed it and named it 'Loosch'." (Genesis 1:1)
Well, it was at prom, and I was more interested in the guy I was dancing with than the music! Also, in my defense, I'd never heard of Queen before, and thought it was several songs, not one. I will admit that now, looking back, I'm shocked at how little I cared for Queen when I first heard them...but I had also never listened to secular music before, so that was a big thing for me, too.

Ja ne!
Hearing We Are The Champions for the first time.
Not those are losers who fall, but those who don't stand up.
I have listen to A Night At The Opera for a long time. I liked listen to it but I wasn't a fan.
And then I heard the Greatest Hits album and I just liked the music very well. I think there wasn't just one special song that confirmed me as a fan. One day I just wanted to know more about this band and I just fell in love with this music :P
Listening to No-One But You (Only The Good Die Young) when watching the We Will Rock You musical. I already knew Bohemian Rhapsody, Under Pressure, We Will Rock You and We Are The Chapmpions, but was never paying much attention to them until I'd seen the musical. Just a few weeks before I watched the musical, I saw videos of Somebody to Love and You're My Best Friend and fell in love with them.

I agree Killerqueen. A great way to close Queen: doing a song for a member of the band, such a rare ocassion.

I remember my next door neighbour sitting me down nearly 30 years ago and putting a pair of headphones on me. That was the first time I heard The Prophets' Song. It was pretty spectacular, and nothing like anything else I'd ever heard.
To cast aside the fury of the battle. To turn my weary eyes for home.
I think it was "The miracle", which someone put on a tape that came into my possession for some reason. I think that IWTBF and RG also played a role.
Bicycle Race- and I thought all the while that Bon Jovi sang it. How foolish of me.
sorry - from a mouldy oldie - i heard SSOR - and loved it - completely (spring 74)
then later that same year 74 - Killer Queen got me hooked, somehow, Now I'm Here (until a couple of years after) completely passed me by...then in late 75 i remember tuning in to TOTP to see THE video - cut n pasted and sliced and diced to fit the end credits of the show because the sad-arses at the BEEB got fed up with it's reign at the top
go deo na hÉireann The best QZ epoch: BG17-00 (Before Gerry 1996-2013)
It really was We Will Rock and We Are The Champions from Live Killers....

still is great!
Live life to the full!
Killer Queen - but at the age of 12 I didn't like the fact they didn't smile. But Bohemian Rhapsody cured me of that reservation and I was totally hooked.
