Greatest Hits Vol.2 - Queen

I have all Queen’s albums, but I still regularly play this CD. There are some really catchy tunes, and some really fine songs. ‘Innuendo’ is a masterful work of a song. ‘Who Want’s to Live Forever’ is a very moving song. ‘I want to Break Free’ is top class feel good fun music which doesn’t ...

Greatest Hits Vol.2 - Queen

This album contains Queens biggest hits from 1981 to 1991, and although much of it contains more of Queens poppy sound, it is still very entertaining, and does contain great rock tracks in 'I want it all' 'Headlong'and 'Hammer to Fall.' One of my favourite tracks is the great 'I want to Break Free.' Written by John Deacon in 1984, I think it is one of pops best moments when the guitar intro cuts dead, there is a beats scilence, and Freddie comes in with the classic 'I want to Break free-ee...'

Queen Rocks - Queen

There was a time when I thought Queen Greatest Hits I was the best album ever, and it is good, but I think this is my favourite Queen compilation. It is a collection of Queens rockiest tracks, kicking off with the wonderful ‘We Will Rock You’ and the quick paced rocker ‘Tie Your Mother Down.’ I started my Queen collection with the Hits collections, and compared with those, this album contains extended versions of many of the tracks, namely ‘One Vision.’ The introduction is vastly greater than that of the Greatest Hits II version. The vocals don’t come in for one and a half minutes, and there’s some fantastic playing from ...
