worst queen song

Can't understand a lot of the bashing of some great 'Freddies'. I can only give my opinion so here goes that songs like 'good old fashioned lover boy', 'millionaire waltz' and 'it's a hard life' in that very camp style that queen are so great at is half the attraction! Other bands just couldn't/can't do it as well!

Queen let's face it write very unique music and when a queen song comes on you know instantly that it is queen. If people listen to queen hoping for mettalica or heavy metal or conversly kitchy spice girls pop they're going to be very dissapointed.

Getting off the subject slightly so I will return my worst song has got to be:
Sleeping on the Sidewalk

Because firstly underneath all the wonderful blues guitar it seems a bit on the small side in terms or grandeur that we know and love Brian and Queen for. We need at least 8 guitar runs!

So on the that basis i'm not love of my life's biggest fan. musically speaking it is very dull even if the lyrics are very pretty.

Delilah, Body Language, Jesus, Mad the Swine, and White Man.

ive not yet heard a Queen song that i don't like but i do get bored of them and stop listening to them but i will listen to them again.
And how can anyone say hot space was their worst album i think its really cool.

wow... i started this post so long ago that i've changed my mind on all of this. i love drowse now... still don't like my baby does me though

man on the prowl
body language

oh yes and friends will be friends. rubbish title, lyrics are feeble and it sounds like queen by numbers to me. re hashing and not improving an old formula

Headlong.....what crap

I ain't bein funny, but you can't really call songs from the Flash OST and most of A Kind Of Magic crap as songs, as they're from soundtracks. Taken in the context they are meant (Flash and Highlander) they are very good. So to stand them up against the rest of the catalogue is pointless, becuase they were - for the main part - made for a completely different purpose.

I was never to fond of My Life Has Been saved, original or MIH version, but Body Language probably has to rank as the most pointless Queen song, albeit good for comedy value.

-headlong
-innuendo
-the miracle, the whole album. utter crap.
-dragon attack
-we are the champions, what crap.
-another one bites the dust, what garbage
-somebody to love

Pain Is So Close To Pleasure
One Year Of Love
Don't Lose Your Head
My Life Has Been Saved

Those rank somewhere low in my personal charts. Worst is probably "One Year Of Love" even though sometimes the melody just sticks in my head and refuses to go out. I don't care much for "Pain..." either, but at least there is a bit of cleverness to it. Same goed for "Delilah", which just lacks some oomph. "Don't Lose Your Head" is bad, but it's also a bit different and weird, which makes it worth listening to every once in a while (like, say, once every ten years). "My Life..." is another skipper, just a completely forgettable song, but at least it doesn't crack the coating of my teeth as "One Year..." does.

all dead, all dead
it's late
fun it
heaven for everyone

What's the point in this topic? All you are doing is picking all the bad songs. Why? I thought this was supposed to be a Queen site for fans not a slanging match!

How are It's Late and Heaven For Everyone the worst? They are the best. AD AD is a great song also. I used to hate Fun It but not any more. I think it's pretty good now.

Sweet Lady - A nice riff but a poor song.

Son And Daughter - No comment.
