[Rock and Roll Hall of Fame] Queen’s iconic masterpieces: Top 10 must-listen tracks chosen by fans (1–10)
Start here!! Top 10 Queen masterpieces you should listen to first
Alright, let’s dive right into introducing Queen’s greatest hits. First, starting with the songs that appeared in the movie, I’ll walk you through their must-know signature tracks! Every one of these is a true gem, personally recommended by the Queen-fan editors on our team!
Bohemian RhapsodyQueen
One of Queen’s greatest songs, which also became a film title.
In 1975, the record company balked at its unprecedented length and complexity, but it went on to become a global hit and cemented Queen’s popularity.
The song is also considered a pioneer of the promotional music video.
Don’t Stop Me NowQueen
A lively song in which Freddie sings with a free, soaring voice over piano accompaniment.
According to numerous studies, it’s considered one of the all-time “mood-lifting” tracks.
Interestingly, the original version uses very little guitar, but on the Bohemian Rhapsody film soundtrack it was reborn as a version with newly overdubbed guitar by Brian.
The Show Must Go OnQueen
This is the masterpiece that brings every Queen fan to tears at the end of the movie.
At the time of recording, Freddie’s illness had progressed considerably, and there were days when singing was difficult.
Even as he faced his own mortality, Freddie’s voice, powerfully declaring that he had to keep the show going as long as he lived, soars endlessly and shines with brilliance.
Somebody To LoveQueen
A masterpiece where you can fully savor one of Queen’s greatest charms: their monumental choral work.
It’s amazing how they took their gospel influences and made them entirely their own—so quintessentially Queen.
As depicted in the film, their layered vocals were created through mind-boggling amounts of overdubbing, and there’s even an anecdote that the tape became so thin you could see through it.
Killer QueenQueen
This song, written by Freddie, was their first international hit.
It’s extremely popular in Japan, having been used by Honda in a commercial.
Its graceful, sophisticated arrangement shows that Queen was far more than just a rock band, and the use of effects on Freddie’s vocals doesn’t feel like something from the ’70s, does it?
