I read someone said Innuendo I never knew he wrote that until then but I really love that song one of my favourites.
[/QUOTE]That may have been me. I say that because although the song was credited to Queen, I read somewhere that Roger was responsible for at least some of the lyrics of Innuendo. However some people on here object strongly and even get slightly annoyed when Innuendo is discussed as a 'Roger Taylor penned composition' but, as I say the lyrics have a definite Roger feel to them. He surely had some input although the music is almost definitely Freddie.

I forgot about 'Heaven for Everyone', Jeez how could I forget that little gem.[/QUOTE] yes, Iunnendo's music was all freddie, and the lryics were started by freddie and finished by roger, so it would be wrong to credit roger for Innuendo. It's a freddie song, but maybe roger did enough to get a co. credit.... One vision was truly all four members. I forgot to mention Another underated song from roger "fight from the inside" was a good rocker.
Well, I guess my favourite Roger song would be 'These Are The Days Of Our Lives' but I also like 'Drowse,' 'Rock It (Prime Jive)' and 'Breakthru.'
How much are all of you sure "Breakthru" is Roger's song?
I think I'm banana tree...

Obviously the beginning is all Freddie, it was a song he had started, but not finished called "A new life is born"

But... the rest lyrics and strong usauge of major chords have Roger written all over it.

Roger has always has a flirtation with the "religion" thing.... so as soon as you a hear a lyric like "I get religion quick" that screams signature Roger writing style.

There are some Freddie-ism's in some of the lyrics... and the bassline sounds like something Deacon would have contrived for the Hot Space album.

I would assume the skeleton of the song was done by Roger, with it being pretty much there....that's when Fred came in and said "why don't we put my unfinished song at the beginning of this?".... Brian said Freddie came up with the train video shoot... I would imaging thats what started the pulsating bass groove.

Breakthru= more than likely mainly Roger's.

Hmm... and I thought I was the only one who liked 'Fight From the Inside':P.
Heaven For Everyone - very sweet! :-)
