The Prophet Song

One of my most favorite Queen songs of all time. I could not find a Freddie Mercury concert with this song that I felt did the recorded version justice, but I did find this tribute band, The Queen Extravaganza that NAILS IT! So here we go, from Zombies to Prophets:


And in my search, I found this great little documentary on the story behind the song, which I have always wondered about listening to the harmonies blaring in my ear drums in stereo, imagining a choir standing all around me.

In The End...There Can Be Only One

When I think of a single track that defined a movie, one of the first that comes to my mind is this song from the movie Highlander. IMO, Freddie Mercury is one of the greatest frontmen in the history of rock n roll bands, and Queen was one of the first bands to infuse orchestra into their music. Enjoy!

Happy Birthday, Jason!

Reviewing songs with "birthday" in them wasn't satisfying my fever for a good song for Jason's birthday today. So I chose to show something that shouldn't make him feel so old... by showing something commemorating an older birthday (just by five years, but that would mean that SNL would of graduated from high school before you entered it).




This was the number one single the week you were born!




And this, ironically, was the number one single when you were conceived.
