Whether you're a die-hard fan of Queen or you're just looking for a good compilation of their greatest hits, you can't go wrong with this 2 CD set. It is an excellent representation of their material as a whole.
Queen's signature sound is unlike that of anyone else. Once you've heard it you'll recognize it anywhere. You'll go back for more. It is good, clean & clear, driving rock 'n roll with a little something extra. The choral-style backup vocals, which are present in several songs, give their music a unique edge.
Also unique is an entire song with only foot-stomping and hand-clapping as accompaniment, until the very end when an electric guitar breaks through (We Will Rock You).And who could forget the mock-operatic vocal stylings present in the everpopular Bohemian Rhapsody?. Queen's greatest asset was perhaps the voice of frontman Freddie Mercury. He had an amazing voice which was capable of just about anything. he had the kind of voice that makes you want to scream when you hear some wannabe band try and cover his song, because they belonged to him. It was a shame when he died as he was queen's heart.
Tracks on this set include: Bohemian Rhapsody, Another One Bites the Dust, Bicycle Race, Don't Stop Me Now, Good Old Fashioned Loverboy, We Will Rock You, Radio Ga Ga, Hammer To Fall, The Show Must Go On, Headlong, You're My Best Friend, and several others. There are 17 songs on each disc, which make a total of 34 examples of classic Queen.
Since Queen finished the remaining members of the group teamed up with Five to do " We will rock you". Which was awesome as they did it so well.
