yer top five looks almost exactly like mine. mine:
queen II
a night at the opera
sheer heart attack
queen I
a day at the races
with news of the world just behind.
i've said this many times before (probably here, but who knows how long ago that was)... i think queen had one of the most impressive consecutive album runs in rock history. they didn't lose me til jazz, but frankly, they lost me pretty hard. while i loved the odd song here and there, no album enthralled me like the earlier ones.
my closest brother turned me onto queen when i was in middle school. my old vinyl is mangled, scratched, warped, the sleeves and covers torn to shreds... but i can't part with em. siiiiiigh. they were an integral part of my musical background.
nobody has ever or will ever sound like them.
From what I hear there are rumors in Hollywood about there being a Freddie Mercury movie being written with Brian May and Robert De Niro on board. I dunno if that's just a rumor or anything since I've not seen any concrete evidence yet but if The Runaways' and Iggy Pop's movies do well then I could see this getting put on the fast track.
Also I just heard of Queen getting their own Rock Band game in Lego form, which I thought was kind of funny and really adorable after seen the pics. ^.^

I liked the Jazz album, but that is where Queen lost my attention, too.
ok. can i ask a question? i get freddie. and i get brian with his hair. but what exactly is the deal with roger and john? i assume roger's in black and john's in white, but when did john get poofier blond hair? did i miss something? i usually do.
i need to be fair. i liked *half* of jazz. what i really mean to say: jazz, for me, was the first queen album that didn't kick ass as an entire album. but i guess no band can keep up that kind of incredible steam indefinitely. hell, few even come close to having a few consecutive kickass albums.
