Hi guys sorry about not posting. I’ve been encountering technical difficulties but don’t worry it’s all sorted now. Anyway I was looking through my previous posts for inspiration and came across my top 10 ABBA songs. This immediately got me thinking about another group I like. A rock group called QUEEN and what a wide variety of songs they had. So today I decided to count down my top 10 QUEEN songs.
10.
These are the days of our lives is a really emotional song because it was the last one Freddie Mercury ever recorded and the music video is so sad as it is Freddie’s final performance before he died. This song and video was Freddie Mercury’s final farewell to his life, his family, his friends and his fans.

Another one bites the dust is a funky little number that interestingly would never have been released if Michael Jackson hadn’t told QUEEN to. I like this song because it has a great beat.
8.
Love of my life is a beautiful song because it’s is about losing someone you loved with all your heart and to get the audience to sing along to this song is hauntingly beautiful

Radio gaga is a brilliant song we can all clap along too. I had to use the live aid performance of this song because every member of that audience was clapping at the right time during the chorus and it sends chills down my spine every time I see it. QUEEN’s live aid performance has been named the greatest live rock gig in musical history

A kind of magic is a catchy song and the music video is just great. I think when you go see a magic show this song should be playing

No one but you (only the good die young) is a beautiful song recorded as a tribute not only to Freddie Mercury but to all those who died well before their time. When I think about someone who died too young this song always comes to mind

Don’t stop me now is a real party rock anthem when this song is played at a party everyone will dance and sing along. Plus it’s also one of two songs on this chart that you have to air guitar to

And here’s the other song you have to air guitar too. We will rock you is a clever little song because the musical instruments don’t come in until the end. The music is mainly stamping and clapping and you can perform it in an empty hall.

We are the champions is a classic sporting anthem you just can’t help but sing along when you hear this song.

Yes it had to be Bohemian Rhapsody. This song has 4 different musical styles and genres. Accapella, ballad, operatic and of course pure rock. This song is legendary there hasn’t been a song like this before or since. And also bear in mind only 3 men sing in the entire song. That is why this song is my number 1 QUEEN song
Until next time, ROCK ON!
