Friday Canon: QUEEN

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

Live Aid wouldn't have been the same without them! Cocaine dwarves, white vests and operatics worthy of Pavarotti have all made Queen legendary in UK pop history. Everyone's Dad loves Queen, but which of their staggering 48 UK charting singles do poptimists heart the most? You get SIXTEEN ticks across all the boxes to denote your Queen love.

Re-issues are not listed unless it is a remixed version. I've also left off the two EPs (Queen's First EP and the George Michael/Lisa Stansfield thing) just because it fits better in the poll that way!

Death on Two Legs is good

um, oh, what else... most of Night at the Opera TBH, although its all a bit mental.

STEER WELL CLEAR of taylor-penned and sung "i'm in love with my car" which is possibly even worse than it sounds...

It's not bad, as such, it's just a bit meh. There's just no real reason to listen to it ever. Although I do like the singles off it. I suspect a big reason nobody else has ticked 'Las Palabras de Amor' up there is that they've not heard it - it wasn't on Greatest Hits II.
