My Turkish brother-in-law got very very excited when I played "Mustapha" for him :hehe:
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.

A lot of people aren't aware that Queen put out an album called "Made in Heaven" a few years after Freddy's death; it was mostly partly-finished crap and weird sound-byte-laden filler, but it did include one song which I really like, especially after about 3 min into it:

Who needs a signature anyway?

Ele never did post "Drowse," so here it is in all its glory:



One of their bigger hits, but still one of their best:

Sorry, I can't help editing more in. I really love this one. Brian does some beautiful stuff:

Thinking Aloud mentioned " '39" much didn't provide a clip. I think we need to rectify that, because it's a wonderful song:



Another masterpiece:



And a great playful (but no less virtuoso) number from Brian May:

But those letters are not silent.

When he selected a Queen song to listen to tonight, my son told me at the camp he went to recently that a bunch of the kids would pick a Queen song to all sing, and each person sang the parts they knew - not everyone knew the whole lyrics to any given song, so they would do a kind of relay-singing to be able to make it through the whole song. :D
