Most unusual Queen song that you've heard on the radio.

I once heard The Night Comes Down...

I was flipping out. I kept thinking "Where the hell did they find this?" It was on 92.3 KGON here in Washington.
Cheers

years and years ago - about 20 to be precise
Anne Nightingale - a BBC Radio1 dj used to have a sunday afternoon show and she always used to play "lazing on a sunday afternoon" as a jingle or a link between news/music

...and she usually played it (all 1 minute +) in full

Innuendo was frequently played on WNEW in New York
as well as Headlong. But between The Game release and The Miracle, not much was happening radio wise for Queen. I heard Staying Power a couple of times on one of NY's top 40 radio stations. That was a surprise. When News of The World was released, I caught Queen Live at the Hammersmith Odeon Christmas Concert on King Biscuit Flower Hour. They played the entire concert at least 2 times during that year. What a performance!!!!

Bicycle Race (it was for a bike ad)
Need Your Loving Tonight
These Are the Days Of Our Lives

My Melancholy Blues ... I was pretty suprised! And it was not long ago!

Bijou, un dia asi como cualquiera pongo la radio y zas! Bijou!! no lo podia creer!!!

I woke up listening to Breakthru once

The German stations usually play:

I want it all
the show must go on
Radio Ga Ga
I want to break free
A Kind of Magic

Some stations specialized in 'oldies'play
also

Killer Queen
We are the Champions
We will rock you

The most unusual song I've ever heared in Radio
was

Man on the Prowl

I Want It All
I'm Going Slightly Mad
We Will Rock You (live magic)
Bohemian Rhapsody (live magic)

Rarest songs I've heard!

Hey you guys! You`ve got very unusual (for me) radio playlists in the US. These are the songs from Polish radio stations:

1. Another One Bites The Dust
2. We Are The Champions
3. Kind Of Magic
4. Who Wants To Live Forever
5. Radio Ga Ga
6. I Want To Break Free (Extended Mix)
7. I Want It All (Single Edit)
8. I`m Going Slightly Mad
9. These Are The Days Of Our Lives
10. Show Must Go On
11. Ride The Wild Wind
12. Friends Will Be Friends
13. You Don`t Fool Me
14. Heaven For Everyone
15. Too Much Love Will Kill You
16. Winter`s Tale
17. Thank God It`s Christmas
18. Living On My Own (Freddie`s Single Version)
19. I Was Born To Love You (Freddie`s Version)

Here in Germany they don't play Queen songs very often on the Radio. But "A kind of magic" and "Radio Gaga" are songs that are played from time to time.
But i remember some years ago i hear "Body Language" and another time "Sail away sweet sister" and i was quite amazed.

<i>- Killer Queen
- Bohemian Rhapsody
- Somebody To Love
- We Will Rock You
- We Are The Champions
- Fat Bottomed Girls
- Crazy Little Thing Called Love
- Another One Bites The Dust
- Under Pressure</i>

Let's not forget "Bicycle Race." And sometimes "You're My Best Friend."

I've also heard "Radio Ga-Ga." In recent years, other songs that weren't initially big hits have gotten airplay exposure due to current events; "The Show Must Go On" was included in the soundtrack and movie "Moulin Rouge"; "I'm In Love With My Car" has popped up due to the Lexus ads; and I've heard a lot of "I Want to Break Free" since the C2 ads.

finally, i can write here, ive been trying mothns to neter to this forum, i had some stupid probelsm crating the mail...anyway...im from Lima, Perú, and i heard once back in 2000, keep passing the open windows, a nkwe it was form queen becuase it was freddie´s voice and all qeen stuff(because back then i didnt know too much of queen i was only 12),bye



P.D i will keep you all, updated of whta happens in this part of the globe bout Queen

Dunno if that counts, but WDR2 (radio station in Germany) is currently airing Hammersmith Odeon from 1975... So THAT is rare...

tie your mother down isn't very unusal.
