The Miracle - Queen

This is one of those albums which could have been an all time classic if smal faults had been fixed in them. I'm not saying for one second that this is a bad album but it does have some bad points and even though I'm a BIG Queen fan they still bug me a little.

The song 'Khashoggi's Ship' contains some of my favourite Queen words ever, " This big bad sucker with a fist as big as your head, Wanted to get me, I said go away, I said kiss my ass honey, He pulled out a gun, wanted to ...
