Thank you mom, for forcing me to listen to Queen when I had horrible taste in music when I was 7.

Funny story about Queen. Guy I know had just picked up the double CD greatest hits package. I make a wize crack about them being the greatest band of raving homosexuals ever. He being a bit of a redneck is offended that I suggest their gay. I'm like dude there called "QUEEN". A week later he drops both cds off at my place, I guess he had never seen one of there videos. After watching one the redneck homophobe in him wouldnt allow him to listen to them anymore. So I scored the albums.

Uhhh, yes they were. Hello, have you ever seen Freddy Mercury? The name was part of his coyness with the press and public about his sexuality. Duh.

Anyway,

Somebody to Love
Fat Bottom Girls
Hammer to Fall
Under Pressure

This thing (this thing) called love (called love)
It cries (like a baby)
In a cradle all night
It swings (woo woo)
It jives (woo woo)
It shakes all over like a jelly fish
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love

There goes my baby
She knows how to Rock'n'Roll
She drives my crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat

I gotta be cool relax get hip!
Get on my tracks
Take a back seat
Hitch hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready
Crazy little thing called love

I gotta be cool relax get hip!
Get on my track's
Take a back seat
Hitch hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready (ready Freddie)
Crazy little thing called love

This thing called love I just can't handle it
This thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love...

Ah down beside that red firelight
Are you gonna let it all hang out
Fat bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go round

Hey i was just a skinny lad
Never knew no good from bad
But i knew life before i left my nursery
Left alone with big fat fanny
She was such a naughty nanny
Heap big woman you made a bad boy out of me
Hey hey!

I've been singing with my band
Across the wire across the land
I seen ev'ry blue eyed floozy on the way
But their beauty and their style
Went kind of smooth after a while
Take me to them dirty ladies every time

Oh won't you take me home tonight?
Oh down beside your red firelight
Oh and you give it all you got

Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round

Hey listen here
Now your mortgages and homes
I got stiffness in the bones
Ain't no beauty queens in this locality (i tell you)
Oh but i still get my pleasure
Still got my greatest treasure
Heap big woman you gonna make a big man out of me
Now get this

Oh you gonna take me home tonight (please)
Oh down beside your red firelight
Oh you gonna let it all hang out
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round
Get on your bikes and ride

Oooh yeah them fat bottomed girls
Fat bottomed girls
Yeah yeah yeah
Fat bottomed girls
Yes yes

Jeez, who wants to choose? Such a versatile band, really. I guess my favorites would be Bohemian Rhapsody and The Show Must Go On. Freddy really seemed to put something into the music, even when it's a lighthearted song it's still powerful somehow.

The name "Queen" was derived from the Queen of England. Their band logo is the royal crown. It was a few years after they chose the name that Freddy started to experiment with homosexuality.
 
Everyone should check out the cover of "Don't Stop Me Now" by the Vandals. It's pretty damn good, and they made the song really rock.
