I happen to like the song, not a lot, but I can certainly think of a few that I really don't like (i.e. Loser in the End), but I'd still take the worst Queen songs over almost everybody else's "Best".

In my opinion that has to be the most underrated song.
KPTOW used to be one of my least favourites, but I kinda like it now.
Especially that piano demo.

Alright I think I managed to figure out most of this word vomit...

Firstly, there's a difference between being a fan and being a psychotic fanatic. Guess which one you fall under.

Secondly, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Some people prefer the 70's stuff over the 80's stuff. Some Queen tracks are weaker than others (Don't Try Suicide, IMHO). Oh well, life goes on. And no, I would not lie to Brian and Roger and say I liked every single thing Queen (not Queen+) has ever done.

Thirdly, You, nor anyone, has any authority or say-so in who is a "real" Queen fan. I personally think a Queen fan should be defined as someone who can honestly respect the band as musicians and genuinely enjoy their music. The best thing is that no Queen album sounds the same. And if someone doesn't like Hot Space or The Works or Queen II, then so be it. It's all in what that person is into. Don't go stomping in here ready to tear ass just because somebody is trying to be honest about their musical tastes.

Getting back on topic, I really like KPTOW a lot. It's very inspiring for me. And I think some find it sounding "unfinished" because it was originally a Freddie solo project that he hoped would be included in the film Hotel New Hampshire (where the title comes from). I think this song wouldn't have fit the structure of the Mr Bad Guy album at all. I don't doubt that if the song was put in the vault, it'd make a lovely rarity to have.

I have seen the light. Suddenly my hatred for the tripe that are 'Body Language', 'Staying Power', 'Coming Soon', 'Fun It', 'Mustapha', 'More Of That Jazz', 'Flash', 'Tear It Up', 'Man On The Prowl', 'Don't Lose Your Head', 'Party', 'My Baby Does Me', and 'Delilah' have melted away. You are the power. May God be with you. Please touch me and share your wisdom.

I BELIEVE!!!!!!!!!
Keep Passing The Open Windows is tied with Is This The World We Created for the best song on The Works and definitely should've been a single instead of Hammer To Fall. It's a great song, and by the way, The Works doesn't suck and is their second best 80's album behind The Miracle. I rank it slightly behind other studio albums:

1. Innuendo
2. A Night At The Opera
3. The Miracle
4. A Day At The Races
5. The Works
6. The Game
7. Sheer Heart Attack
8. Queen
9. Made In Heaven
10. Queen II
11. Hot Space
12. News Of The World
13. Jazz
14. A Kind Of Magic
14. Flash Gordon

I know this will kill all you Queen II lover's but I see it as just barely top 10. Though I'm not bashing it, I love all the albums. Just my opinion. Don't hate me.
How can I go on from day to day? Who can make me strong in every way?

I really be a likin "Keep Passing the Open Windows". I reckon it be one of my favourite songs. It be right up there with "Staying Power" and "Bring Back Leroy Brown".
My opinion? By far my least favorite song is Machines...I mean, come on...
It actually is a fabulous song. The lyrics are fantastic and the vocals, the piano and it's nice and fast. Really fabulous song.

Also "Don't Try Suicide" is a classic. I mean that rhytm, nice and slow than it suddenly get's rocking.
