Worst Queen songs

1) Body Language (too disco, too much synths)
2) One Year of Love (Michael Bolton-like... I know, I know ... I should not have written this kind of comparison)
3) Man on the prowl (no substance)
4) Delilah (clever song, but embarassing, meow, meow, err...)
5) Don't loose your head (too much 80's)

Don't agree..

The only one I'd accept in your list is

- Rain must fall

For the rest...

- Keep yourself alive
- Mad the Swine
- Bycicle race
- Party
- Pain is so close to pleasure
- If you can't beat them

all in hot space

This forum is the worst ever.

Hmmm... everyone assumes It's a Hard Life is closer to Play the Game just because the chorus is similar.
I actually look at it as a much-simplified, toned down kind of Bohemian Rhapsody, in that there's a big vocal intro, the verse and chorus sounds similar, and instead of the opera section they've got that whole Brian thing.

Yah maybe I'm wrong actually. Fuck.

I don't like Staying Power, but the live version makes up for it. I honestly can't be arsed scouring 180 songs for ones I don't like when there's about a 100 (including Delilah, haha) that I do like.

Though I must say - One Year of Love would've been less irritating to me if they 86'd the ridiculous karaoke machine instrumentation and that god-awful sax solo.

Nobody is perfect. It is cliche, but it is always right.

Even Beatles have bad songs and similar songs (I Wanna Hold Your Hand, She Loves You, etc... are variations of the same theme, I think).

It is good to analyze that even our beloved band can do bad songs.

At least the good/bad ratio is high...

I did not mean that those Beatle songs are bad... no... but I usually skip them when listening to their "1" compilation.

Rain Must Fall... Why?!?!?!

Thank you all for your comments & feedback. I love Queen. I believe they are one of the top 5 best and most influential bands of all time. I discovered Queen about 1977 and quickly become an ardent fan. I was fortunate to see them live four times (1977, 1978, 1980 & 1982) probably the best live shows I have ever witnessed. Their work from Queen I to The Game is miraculous and at times breath taking. The carved out a unique sound that is unmistakable. Unfortunately for most fans in the USA like my self, instead of inventing new concepts or continuing to be leaders of their time they simply became followers, thus they lost their original sound and it was hard to tell them apart from most of the other synth bands of the day. I totally understand wanting to incorporate other types of music into Queen, but instead of taking that and making it their own, they simply copied what others have done. For the most part from “Hot space” to “Made in Heaven” there are a few quick flashes of brilliance. Most of the time it seems like they were trying to write a hit song. Trying just to fit in on what was going on around them. “Hot Space” is my least liked offering from them, but when they preformed those song live with their Queen sound, most of those tunes rocked! In my opinion the same could be said for the rest of their later output as well.
