Hm...

I wish I had the quote where Freddie said they had already surpassed "Bohemian Rhapsody", musically...

I can't say it's the "best". That would be silly. And a discredit to Freddie and all of them as artists.

Sure, they had some things after "Bohemian Rhapsody" that people don't generally like (The Miracle, Queen going "pop"), but they also had some better ones.

It's great in that we can fight about what it "means" for ever and ever. But there are plenty of other ones where you have people fighting over opinions that in the end, take away from the song by tacking one supposed "definition" on it.

But "best" ? I don't think so personally, and - like I said - that's discrediting everything Freddie did after that as being lesser.

You can't really judge "best", as it's a personal thing. You can judge the difficulty, or the range needed to sing the thing, but when it comes to "best song", that's a personal thing, I believe. A song that's not as technically challenging may be a "better" song than a very difficult one - depending on who's listening.

Hm... Personally, I think "The Millionaire Waltz" is great, and in the same vein as "Bohemian Rhapsody". Also, "Somebody to Love". I don't know who wrote them, but I LOVE "Was it All Worth it ?" which I believe is an absolute confection. And, from the same album, "Chinese Torture" is probably one of the only instrumentals I've ever really liked. Also, "Bijou" is wonderful. "I'm Going Slightly Mad" is one of my all-time favourites... Will I stop, yes - yes I will.

Oh, and I read some essays last night that were all about over ten pages, so, no - I don't pity you.

Freddie wrote was it all worth it, and Chinese Torture was intended to be a brian solo track so it's his song, Bijou was mainly freddie, but brian helped him tweak some stuff (I believe) and Im Going Slightly Mad is obviously Freddie. :D

LMAO!!!!!!!! You're awesome! :D[/QUOTE]
YAY!! It's_a_hard_life thinks I'm AWESOME!!

So are you sweetie.
I love Bohemian Rhapsody! It's famous for the opera part but I think the "Mama ooooh" part is incredible! It's just a great song. It's timeless. It was amazing then and it's amazing now. Queen really took a risk combining rock and opera but they did a fantasitc job and no one will ever make another song like it.

It's not my favorite song though but it is a masterpiece.
