.......will be 'The Nation's Favourite Queen Song' (ITV 9pm) but which of their great songs will complete the top 3?

Personally my 3 fav Queen songs are; 1) LIAR, 2) HAMMER TO FALL and 3) TIE YOUR MOTHER DOWN, though i doubt any will feature in the top 10.

I will hazard a guess that These Are The Days Of Our Lives will figure prominently if only because of the accompanying video.

pixie, you make me jealous with all this talk of "multi-tasking", what is this strange phenomenon of which you speak?

I've never used this myself :0)

Nibble.... It isn't working for me either....:-)

You've got to admit, Freddie could belt out a good tune live

Thanks

Let's face it, if you're a proper Queen fan, you can hardly argue with the result. As the saying goes, "every one a winner".

One thing did puzzle me though, when Katy Perry spoke about first hearing Under Pressure at the tender age of 15, she made it sound as if she'd heard it upon it's release - in 1981. She wasn't born until 3 years later.

Ken, I love the three tracks that you've chosen in your top three and obviously Boh-Rhap was going to be no.1 I find it difficult to whittle it down to ten (which was years ago when I tried) On a desert Island kind of thing... It's hard to decide which of their works I'd take with me. Sheer heart attack would be one of three.)

The Invisible Man is one of my favourites. It's frantic.

I think if you have followed a group for most of your life - which i have with Queen - and you were asked to name your favourite tune, it would depend somewhat on what mood you were in when asked the question. If you were feeling sad, Days Of Our Lives, would come to the fore; if happy, possibly Don't Stop Me Now; if you were hoping to oatch up with a loved one after a quarrel, then i'm sure Love Of My Life would figure.

At this moment in time i have the cans on my head, volume turned up full and Brighton Rock bouncing from ear to ear. And, at this moment in time, i believe it's one of my favourites:-) Great King Rat follows.............

Ark; by the way, gt a phone call from daughter number one asking if i've got the new album yet. The answer was negative so it's on the xmas list along with Floyd's new one. Just need to sort out what the other 2 are getting me, now.

[Arksided]

You are absolutely spot on there Ken... they were so diverse in musical talent. and when the mood takes you...

Invisible Man starring a 15 year old Daniella Westbrook before she lost her sense of smell.

[Arksided]

Mine will be a pair of socks... they know not to buy music for me as I'll have them already... however I don't have Floyd or forever yet. ;-)

[Arksided]

Daniella Westbrook... wow I can see her now.

In the early 80's I was offered a ticket to go and see Queen in, I think, Paris but as I'd never heard of them, I declined. Regrets, I've had a few! No-one ever believes that I'd never heard of them then, though I did realise that some of their stuff I'd heard somewhere. D@@n Radio 4, they never play that sort of stuff.
