FORMED: 1971, London, England DISBANDED: 1995 1968: Smile In 1968, Brian May and Tim Staffell, both students at Imperial College, decided they wanted to form a group. Brian placed an advertisement on the college notice board for a "Ginger Baker type" drummer, and a young medical student called Roger Taylor auditioned and got the job. They called the group Smile. Smile were signed to Mercury Records in 1969, and had their first experience of a recording studio in Trident Studios that year. Tim Staffell was at Ealing College of Art with Freddie Bulsara, and introduced him to the band. Freddie soon became a keen fan. Sadly, in 1970 Smile decided to call it a day, as nothing seemed to be happening for them. Tim went off and joined a band called Humpy Bong, and Fred More... (Submit New Queen Lyrics) (Submit New Queen Lyrics) Review about Queen =] Queen [= | Reviewer: Sarah Clifford ------ About the song I Want To Break Free performed by Queen I grew up with my dad's music which luckily involved Queen. I love there music. Its great. Third best band ever!. Sorry but Creedence Clearwater Revival and The Beatles are my first two. But Freddy Murcury was a great man. Was very sad when he died. But his and there music still lives on in our hearts. That is what really matters =]. xoxo Not so sad - Reviewer | Reviewer: Sylvia ------ About the song These Are The Days Of Our Lives performed by Queen As I listen to this wonderful song, I can see myself running and laughing many years ago. I find no sadness in it, just beautiful memories of our childness. Come on, enjoy it with happiness, I believe he wrote it with that purpose, a touch of his personality. Freddy, wherever you are, you are great! Marie Antoinette and her cake. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Killer Queen performed by Queen I can't take it, I gotta say something. Mary Antoinette wasn't as stupid as people say, when she said "Let them eat cake", it was actually referring to the gunk that stuck to pots, the stuff that is caked on. The version of her referring to actually cake, the good kind, is merely a myth by somebody who only heard a few words, then ran off in the middle of history class laughing to people about the half story. Again, she was saying that the peasants should essentially eat dirt, or grime, or anything they could get, rather than her helping. She wasn't oblivious to the situation, she just didn't care. Call me | Reviewer: Knitbone ------ About the song Call Me performed by Queen I always loved Queen but thought they were a spent force when Freddie died but I love thios album. Paul Rogers vocals bring a grown up sound to Brian's guitar work. An excellent album and I hope there are more to follow. This song kicks a@%.....period! | Reviewer: Ramon Edwards ------ About the song Under Pressure performed by Queen I am a 39 year old black male. The accuracy of this song sends chills up my spine. It perfectly fits our day and age. Just the other night, I had to pleasure to view Queen performing Radio Ga Ga at the Live Aid concert on VH1. They rocked! Freddie Mercury had the entire crowd responding to him. And he sounded great. That just doesn't happen this days. Yeah, I've been to some really good concerts; but I would seriously give up a couple of fingers, toes, and a kidney to be transported back in time, placed right smack in the middle of that audience, then cut loose to wave my fist in the air singing, "All we hear is radio goo goo, radio ga ga" you added so much to our days | Reviewer: keith ------ About the song These Are The Days Of Our Lives performed by Queen I didn't like them when I first heard them! Now I cannot live without them - and I'm 64!!! So many of the days of my life have been so beautifully enriched with this unforgettable music and performances.It's truly wonderful to see generation after generation being bewitched by the magic. I still love you Live version difference | Reviewer: Prosper ------ About the song Bohemian Rhapsody performed by Queen Don't know if anyone has heard but when Freddy Mercury sang this live he added a part at the beginning. I do not know the words he used in the first part but I do for the second. It was like : "Eeeevaheeeeeev!Eeeevaheeeeeev! Alah Alah Alah will pray for you." Then the rest came. I understand the Alah part but what about the eeevaheev thing? Great song and love the band. Wish Freddy was still here. I love this song | Reviewer: Sophie ------ About the song Is This The World We Created? performed by Queen I'm Italin and so, I'm sorry if my English is not perfect=). This is the best Freddie's song because it's about the real world. We invaded and devastated this amazing world and people don't understand that if we don't do something to improve our world, we finish to kill ourselves. Pollution, shortages, lack of water...we have to do something...why people don't undestand this?? greatest song ever written | Reviewer: widya chalid ------ About the song Innuendo performed by Queen This is the greatest song ever written, specially for Queen.. after years Queen didnt write complex music like this, aftr Bhorap. And for a long tinme, this is a legacy to the next rock generation who wants to learned how rock progressif must written. And for a long time I'm asking why Queen give a role to Yes's Steve Howe to played accoustic guitar in this song...I just thought, this is showed us, Queen is really serious to make it as a perfect song. and indeed, it is a perfect song. About Freddy | Reviewer: P ------ About the song Bohemian Rhapsody performed by Queen One of the greatest opera voices to every grace rock-pop. Imagine Mika and multiply him by 10! As for his gayness, he was open about it from the start. Killer Queen, the name of the band, the moustache, the armbands. He refused to make an issue of it, as he was a performer. Why should he? Because he wasn't a tart about it, I don't think many took any notice of it. There was just not a rock group around with the vocal talent, musical talent and feeling for the "zeitgeist" that they had. They were rare - easy to listen to, but somehow mind expanding. He also didn't make an issue of his Indian/Bahai roots. I grew up with his music, thinking him the most English person I'd heard. Perhaps in some respects he was - he lived as he wished, didn't make an issue of it and his sheer bloody talent is what lives on. This song shows both his vocal dexterity and intelligence as a human being. It has nothing whatsoever to do with AIDS or any of that. Freddy also left none of his estate to gay groups, but made sure his lifetime lover Jim Hutton was looked after. At the end of the day, is any of that relevant or our business? P Freddy > any other frontman | Reviewer: Will ------ About the song Bohemian Rhapsody performed by Queen Anonymous you are an idiot dont ever compare anyone to Freddy, especially someone from a band as horrible as My Chemical Romance your an idiot. He is the greatest frontman ever and no one else will ever top him Very nice | Reviewer: Peter ------ About the song The Night Comes Down performed by Queen There is also what could be an ambiguous reference to "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds", in the lyric: "When I was young it came to me; And I could see the sun breaking; Lucy was high and so was I; Dazzling, holding the world inside." May is admittedly a Beatles fan and has commented in numerous interviews on their impact on him. This song makes me sigh. | Reviewer: Seven ------ About the song All Dead All Dead performed by Queen This is one of my favorite Queen songs. I didn't realise it was Brian singing. The same way I didn't realise he started of 'who wants to live forever.' He's a little less powerful but his delivery and timbre are very similar to Freddy's. Queen at its best.. as always | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Brighton Rock performed by Queen This is not only a mindblowing guitar solo, one of the best and not only in Queen catalogue, it's also a great lyric with obviously superb vocal perfomance, but please!! listen to the drumming is just insane!! and what do you say about john's bass before the solo ends?? It's not only the guitar, a song to stand up!! come on!!! Yet another reason | Reviewer: GutterTheatrical ------ About the song The Prophet's Song performed by Queen it's not played on radio, other than length and follow-in to Love Of My Life, is the tone. This kind of epic songs with more, let' say, serious lyrics, are not really radio favorites. Just spending a half hour on some station you see the deepest they go is breakup songs. Man, it's a pity. To just stop and listen to this... it makes you feel and *think*. And it rocks your socks, too =) Correction | Reviewer: Xubayr ------ About the song Bohemian Rhapsody performed by Queen They don't say 'It's the LAW!' It's actually 'Bismillah'. Lyrical references in this passage include Scaramouche, the fandango, Galileo Galilei, Figaro and "Bismillah," as rival factions fight over the narrator's soul. the best of all | Reviewer: loveofmylife ------ About the song Fat Bottomed Girls performed by Queen Queen are unsurpassable! All songs are great, indeed freddie died on the 24th november 91 but i´m sure, he´s alive in a lot of hearts forever! however there are people, who hate Queen or told me, that the band is shit, because Freddie was bi! I wont cant understand ´em! But freddie: holded on strong, cos: no-one could reach them aside from freddie. And he knowed it! Fat bottomed girls is one of the songs i heard many times and it never will get boring, like other songs which written by other bands. The song i love most is love of my life! What ever will happen: I´m sure, Queens music will help me! In school, the most guys say, i´m crazy, because i hear with only 13 years so a old band, but i saw freddie and knowed: he is it! hes all i need! then i heard hes music and it was sure for me: Freddie, his music, food, drink, dormancy and a little bit love! No more, i need to hold strong. Queen forever and everywhere!! Queen always on my play list | Reviewer: Allison ------ About artist/band Queen Hi im 34yrs of age living in Australia. I grew up in the late 70s and early 80, and loved the sweet melodys of Freddie as well as the fantastic rock that came from the band. The four of them on stage was electrifying only sad that i was not able to see them rock the roof off Wembley Stadium. Have it on dvd doesnt do them justice. Their music and love of life and all things musicl have inspired many a concert performance in my living room and has inspired a new generation of Queen fans who adore their music. Always listened to and forever in our hearts pumping out their unique sound thank you Brighton Rock - rock guitar heaven and poetry to boot... | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Brighton Rock performed by Queen Yep, the song is great and the guitar work is mind-blowing. The lyrics are a story too, told in typical Brian May poetic style; what's not to like. Oh, and you've got the same error in the lyrics as everyone else; it's "little peep of magic" not "little people magic". It makes a lot more sense that way, and I was told that by Brian May, who wrote the thing. Heh heh, name dropping or what... good cant even begin to describe Queen | Reviewer: Jade ------ About the song Body Language performed by Queen Body Language. The name suggests what Freddie mentions in this song, and while, yes its a little preverted, so was fat bottomed girls, and Queen was usually very clean compared to other various bands. All in all, the song is very catchy, I favor the bass in this song, John Deacon worked his magic like always. But, of course what else could you expect from the legendary Queen? This song is just as great as the rest of them, the best of whats around no doubt.
