[Rock and Roll Hall of Fame] Queen’s iconic songs: Must-listen fan-selected signature tracks (21–30)
March of the Black QueenQueen
One of the tracks on the Black Side of the album “Queen II,” it depicts an army marching in the wake of a queen.
The same melody is not reused within the song, and its unpredictable melodic development is a hallmark for listeners.
It’s a piece that packs a variety of narrative developments into a single track, and in a sense, it can be described as having an experimental song structure.
Save MeQueen
This song is included on the album The Game, and in contrast to the up-tempo, rhythmic tracks like Dragon Attack and Another One Bites the Dust, it’s a song about a bittersweet breakup.
By placing it at the very end to bring the album to a gentle close, Queen crafted an album structure that is quintessentially theirs.
I Want It AllQueen
A song Brian wrote inspired by his wife, the British television actress Anita Dobson.
It’s a proud, powerful track about ambition and getting things done.
It was released as a single in 1989.
I Was Born To Love YouFreddie Mercury
It doesn’t appear in the film Bohemian Rhapsody, but it’s probably the most beloved Queen song in Japan.
The parody version in a Cup Noodles commercial became a hot topic, and as the theme song for the TV drama Pride starring Takuya Kimura, it led to a renewed appreciation of Queen.
The song originally appeared on Freddie’s solo album, and a Queen version was produced for the posthumous album Made in Heaven.
A Kind of MagicQueen
Originally, Roger wrote the melody and chords of this song for the film Highlander.
Later, Freddie wrote a new bass line, and a new mix was produced with David Richards.
Roger’s version was used in the film’s ending, while Freddie’s version was included on the album.
Bicycle RaceQueen
A song Freddie wrote after watching the Tour de France cycling race at a hotel in France.
It features complex instrumentation.
It also drew attention for its music video set in Wimbledon Stadium, where nude women are shown cycling.
One VisionQueen
This song celebrates global unity and harmony, and the music video shows the members happily recording in the studio—footage that’s a treat for fans.
At the end, where they sing “one vision,” it became a talking point among fans because, for some reason, Freddie sings it as “fried chicken.”
