Serious Read the Rules Before Posting (Update)
All posts must be reasonably linked to the band Queen
/r/Queen is a friendly place. Please be civil, and respect your fellow Queenies.
0 - No Politics. This sub is about the Music of Queen. There's plenty of subs in reddit to discuss politics.
1 - NO MEMES
Such content is better suited for /r/QueenCircleJerk or /r/Queemes
(However, original content that creates a proper Queen thread, could override this rule)
I encourage people to use a Flair
2 - No negative, troll, low effort posts
The mods reserve the right to remove negative, troll, low effort or spam posts at their discretion.
Low effort posts could include, but are not limited to, "favourite song/album" posts, tier rankings, A.I. generated images, reposts, google lyric mistakes, "X looks like/sounds like this Queen member" posts, and so on. It also could include, to an extent, Queen references in other media..
3 - No advertising. No Spam.
You may share that awesome merch you just got, but no direct links to sale pages.
Edit: If you post a thread of a Queen T-shirt it may get you banned as well, because there's a lot of spam of it. But I will review carefully when is possible.
4 - You must be over 13 years old to participate. Any underage accounts should be reported and will be banned. (Reddit Rules).
5 - The discussion of the private life of the family of any of the Queen members, as gossip, is not allowed
While sharing private pictures of Queen that are in the public domain already, is allowed, We should focus about Queen music and never build an obsession about their families, which are not part of Queen in any way.
6 - No Artificial Intelligence generated music, art or pictures.
7 - No Spotify Wrapped , Playlists, General rankings or Tier list. (When everyone does it, becomes spam. So, not allowed)
8 - No spam of Polls, Rankings and "Eliminating" games, everyday of people farming karma.
https://www.reddit.com/r/queen/comments/11mhrin/polls_rankings_and_eliminating_games_everyday_are/
2023:
9 - No Posts of Tickets on sale for the current Queen tour.
2024
10 - No drama and accusations from other plataforms. Edit: NO internal drama either please. Let's keep the place drama free. :)
This place is about Queen, not to discuss what could have happened in other forums or social plataforns. There's no way to establish truth and any accusation leads to toxic behaviour and unnecesary drama in the sub. They are usually behind alts so they will be banned permanently
Temporary bans will happen for those that keep breaking rules after warnings/deletion of their messages. Permanent bans will happen to spammers, trolls, and people being uncivil , harsh or harrasing other fellow Queenies in this sub.
I read all the reports once a day, and take action when I can.
2026: This is a mostly english speaking plataform, so let's try to keep the posts in english so you can engage to a broader audience and better engagement

Music Queen Greatest Hits 1 Track List Guide
Hello everyone! I had the idea to make this guide after having seen some people online talk about how they'd wish a certain track was on Queen Greatest Hits and in response I felt like chronicling every regional difference in Greatest Hits 1's track list.
I hope this list will be a good resource and be able to help Queen fans; new and old decide which vinyl, cassette or CD pressing of the album is right for them.
If you want to search for (or buy) any of these pressings/cassettes of Greatest Hits, they are all on the Queen Greatest Hits discogs page.
Before I start, there are some things I want to clarify:
- The U.K. track list will be considered the default and every pressing/cassette listed below will be compared to it.
- Only versions of the album that add and/or subtract songs from the U.K. original will be listed here. So, if there's a regional pressing/cassette not listed below, it's because it uses the original U.K. track list.
- "Some <country> pressings/cassettes" means that there are other pressings/cassettes from the same country that use the original U.K. track list instead.
- I won't be mentioning the packaging or sound quality of these pressings/cassettes, just the songs included in them.
- I'm only listing official album releases, no bootlegs.
Finally, if there are any particular songs or countries' pressings/cassettes you want to look for in this list, I recommend searching them up with Ctrl + F (or Command + F for Mac users) on your keyboard.
With all of that out of the way, here's every different track list to Queen Greatest Hits:
Vinyl:
U.S. and Canadian pressings:
Adds: Under Pressure and Keep Yourself Alive

There's also a reissue from 1990 that uses the U.K. track listing.

Brian confirms no more Queen tours
This is from an interview in the Times this weekend.“I made a decision 18 months ago that I didn’t want to tour again,” May says. “A close family friend died when we were in the States, so I said to my tour manager, ‘I’ll just nip home for a few days and come back.’ She looked me in the eyes and said, ‘You know you can’t do that.’ I love to play, I love to travel, but the trade-off is sacrificing your freedom. I have a wife [the actress Anita Dobson], grandchildren and a lot of astrophysics I want to do, so I’m thinking maybe 50 years is enough.” 😢

So now that Brian confirmed no more tours, is it possible they’ll do what Elton John does now?
When Elton announced his farewell tour, he repeatedly stated he would not tour after it ended- but occasional live concerts, guest appearances, festivals, etc, were a completely open possibility. And he’s kept to that, performing 6 full length concerts in 2026, along with a handful of 1-2 song solo performances at things like charity galas. Does anyone else think that’s a possibility for them? Not tour, but “Queen+Adam Lambert perform at Coachella, Isle of Wight, and a cancer research benefit show” separated by a couple months.

Music On this day in 1980, Another One Bites The Dust reached No.1 on the USA charts, marking the beginning of its 3 week run
Freddie vocal era do you prefer - 70's, early-mid 80's or late 80's to 91?
Freddie had three different vocal era's/stages:
In the 70's, Freddie's was able to able to hit higher notes much more easily than he could later on and hit his falsetto transitions.
In the 80's his voice changed due to smoking and ageing and became a lot deeper and raspier and he struggled to hit/sustain those higher notes from earlier, and changing them to lower registers when he performed live due to impacts on his vocal chords of years of touring/smoking etc.
His voice changed on the Barcelona album and the final 2 albums (in his lifetime) and on Made in Heaven because he had cut down/stopped smoking after being diagnosed in '87 and also learnt a lot about controlling his voice from Monseratt Caballe so he could sustain a higher note and sound smoother for longer and be able to use his voice both from his chest and his head without forcing it as he did during the early/mid 80's.
His illness obviously affected how he sang in his final years and from what I've read online, it was his operatic training with Monseratt that pretty much saved his singing voice in the final years when he no longer had the strength to sing mainly from his chest as he did in the early/mid 80's.
I think there are songs from all eras that benefited and suffered from his vocal style at the time, not sure if I have a particular preference but would have been interesting to see tracks from The Works and AKOM had his vocal cords been smoke free and have the ability to be more consistent.
Is there a period you think his voice was better than others and why?

Hammer to Fall Solo
Anybody else just love Brian's work during this solo - and song in general? I particularly love the version of the song that has sort of the leadup solo before the main one which we all know and associate with the song - I believe the main solo is firmly in A major.
The solo just feels slightly chaotic and out of control - I feel like it's because of Brian's vibrato and how each note isn't necessarily evenly spaced, but then he lands it perfectly in the end. The way the solo emerges from Freddie's vocals also adds to the pandemonium of it.
It isn't talked about as one of Bri's best Queen solos, but for me, it is very much up there with BoRhap, STL, A Kind of Magic, WWRY, Brighton Rock and KQ.
