Bohemian Rhapsody, done Wayne's World style! That one is awesome!
Another One Bites the Dust is pretty good too.

Yup. I'm a massive Queen fan - I only have about 100 or so Queen tracks copied from my 20-odd CDs onto my Xbox :)
I've been listening to their Under Pressure number done with David Bowie much as of late, but Bohemian Rhapsody is hard to beat.

Hard to pick one single song, but yeah GOFLB is great.
Album-wise, If I had to pick Queen albums to listen to all the way through I'd probably pick Queen II and Sheer Heart Attack over any of the others. I've never been been able to put my finger on exactly why that is, but it's not something I worry about :)

Queen songs have a certain zen-like quality: which is the best Queen song? They are all the best.
A personal favourite is Great King Rat, because I got to dance to role of Rat King in the Nutcracker :eek:
The Flash Gordon soundtrack is also a funfilled campy romp.

"Don't Try Suicide".
I don't get what it is about Bohemian Rhapsody that makes it so popular. It seems that everyone loves it, and I can't get a good reason other than either "Nothing comes close!" or "It's Queen, duh!"
Queen is my absolute favorite band, but my favorite would have to be Bohemian Rhapsody. I love Killer Queen and Who Wants To Live Forever, too.
What is (in your opinon) the best Queen song?
The seven seas of Rhye is my personal favorite!
Depending on my mood either, "who wants to live forever," or "I'm going slightly mad."

Because it's based on Albert Camus's existential classic, "L'etranger."

How has no one mentioned either "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" or "Somebody to Love" yet? Sheesh!
As for my answer, I can never quite decide between the above two, "Bohemian Rhapsody," and "Fat-Bottomed Girls." Which is my favorite depends entirely on what mood I'm in.

My favorites have all been mentioned so I'll just add a an honorable mention: "I'm Going Slightly Mad".
Yes, that's a song!

"Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Fat Bottomed Girls" from the poll.
"We Will Rock You" "We Are the Champions" "Under Pressure" "Another One Bites the Dust" and "Innuendo" not from the poll.
Yes, I know it's overtly gay. Still a good song. :pThat's pretty much the definition of a good song. ;)

I would vote for "Made in Heaven" from the album with the same name.
In fact, all the songs from said album are damn good.

I could list 20 or 30 tracks that I prefer out of Queen's repertoire, but I just listed the ones I particularly enjoy.
Dragon Attack is definitely one of the lesser-known songs though.
Queen is good stuff, plain and simple.
I should listen to some Queen.
...
WHAT THE HELL?! MY QUEEN IS GONE! :(
"Bohemian Rhapsody", obviously
But how'd you forget "We Will Rock you"?

"We Are the Champions" of course. In second is "Another One Bites the Dust", which really goes great with any sport highlight ala my Boomer Sooners rackin up some serious triple option yardage:

I fully expect to be attacked for this, but ... "Bohemian Rhapsody."
Though I also like "We Are The Champions."
