Advantages: You will know all the songs. Disadvantages: Not all the hits are there, and there is no track information.
...As a greatesthits album, I would have expected this to contain all the hits I have heard of. So where were Radio Ga Ga and It's a Kind of Magic?
I'll tell you where. They were on the second greatesthits album. It is all well and good releasing a greatesthits album, but not if you are only going to include only 14 songs.
As a stand alone product though, I cannot fault it. You will know all of the songs on it, and all of them are great, especially to drive to.
My only problem is that there is not enough information about the tracks, like there is on the second Greatesthits album....

...As one of the die-hard Queen Fans that remember their entry to the "rock"world Queen's GreatestHits I is a must for any true fan.
As is GreatestHitsII and III! Freddie Mercury is no doubt one of the greatest Rock icons of the 20th Century, with a voice like no other. Brians guitar talent defies explanation (how can someone be that good?) and Roger and John are elements of Queen that could not overlooked - in truth and as the band themselves said they were Queen - not just 4 band members but a team, without any one of them the success would not have happened. QueenI is a tribute to the growth of rocks best known and loved band. A new generation of fans are again being introduced to Queen (albeit by 5ive) and the GreatestHits Albums are a fine example of Queen at their best...

Advantages: Classic after classic, and a genuine greatest hits album Disadvantages: none
...This album is classic songs followd by even more classic songs. Who can argue with the line up.
Bohemian Rhapsody, Dont Stop Me Now, Fat Bottomed Girls, We Will Rock You, Flash, Another One Bites the Dust, Play the Game just to name a few.
Normally GreatestHit albums are made up of some of the artists greatesthits, and the rest are saved for a GreatestHits 2 album. But even though Queen have 3 greates hits albums, this one is by far the best. All their true greatesthits are in there. There might be only 2 or 3 songs on the whole album that even a non-queen fan might not know, the rest are fan favourites....
