Best Queen LP side two opening track?

Saw this poll posted on Reddit and it really got me. Look at this list! Just about every track a stunner. "Arboria" is probably my personal weakest link but I adore every selection, at least a little. Let's do that poll thing again, shall we? Pick your top 3*!

*(no changing, so choose carefully! also set this to where you do not have to vote to view results)

Spoiler: The list!

Liar
Ogre Battle
In the Lap of the Gods
The Prophet's Song
Somebody to Love
Get Down, Make Love
Dead on Time
Rock It
Arboria
Put Out the Fire
Machines (Back to Humans)
Who Wants to Live Forever
Breakthru
All God's People
I Was Born to Love You

 

I had to go with Liar, The Prophet's Song and Breakthru. Blasphemy, right? Especially with Somebody To Love sitting there just daring you to pick it.

 

Man, this is a tough one. There really aren't any bad ones here except, as you said, 'Arboria', though I think 'All God's People' is a pretty weak song overall. If I had to pick three, I'd go with 'Ogre Battle', 'Somebody To Love', and 'Who Wants To Live Forever', though 'Rock It', 'Dead On Time', 'Lap Of The Gods', and 'Prophet's Song' are the four runner-ups.

 

I went with those same three! My runner-ups would be Liar, Prophet, and possibly Breakthru.

 

Liar
Ogre
Somebody

 

Yeah Ogre Battle's an amazing choice too. So much asskicking riffage and the backwards intro is just cool.

 

Liar
Ogre
Dead/Prophet,

you can keep the rest

 

The Prophet's Song
Liar
Ogre Battle

Runners up...

Who Wants To Live Forever
In The Lap Of The Gods
Get Down, Make Love

 

Liar
Somebody To Love
Breakthru

It was very hard, considering other great options as Rock It and Ogre Battle...

 

So hard to decide!!
Ogre Battle
Prophets Song
Somebody To Love

But very close runners up are Liar, Breakthru, Rock It and Who Wants To Live Forever... and almost all of them

 

It’s a tie between Liar and Ogre Battle.

 

I went for the first three, but there's some great choices I had to omit, particularly 'Somebody To Love' and 'Get Down, Make Love'.

 

Liar, Prophet's Song, Somebody To Love. All are lengthy epics that defined the band's sound during the period they were released in.

*That's not to say that the other's don't also define the band's sound during the period, but if you were to pick a track for a list of "The Best Queen Tracks off of each album", you would likely pick those three off of each of their respective albums rather than the other tracks off of their albums.

 

Liar
Ogre Battle
In The Lap Of The Gods

Followed by The Prophet Song and Somebody To Love.

Seems to be a bit of a theme going down here!

 

whoops i would have voted for more than one but in my rush i missed the multiple vote things

i voted prophets song
would have added
somebody to love
liar
in the lap of the gods

 

Liar, Ogre Battle, Somebody To Love.

Rock It & Breakthru just behind.

 

It's Ogre Battle isn't it?

 

"Ogre Battle," "The Prophet's Song," and "Breakthru," definitely.

 

Liar hands down. What a powerful song. I would have bought the album just based on that song.

 

I'll pick Arboria, Deacy goes ambient, I just wish the dialogue was removed and that the music was longer!

You can't go wrong with Battle and Prophet's song

 

I went with “Liar,” “Prophet’s Song,” and “Somebody to Love,” but let’s pretend I picked “Ogre Battle” instead of “Somebody to Love.” Unfortunately it’s too late to change my vote.

 

Lots of great songs. I went with Somebody To Love, such a beautiful song.

 

Liar is fabulous, went for that, Get Down Make Love and Put Out The Fire which is a favourite of mine

 

Liar
Ogre Battle
The Prophet's Song

 

A lot of rock fans here did. "Liar" got good rotation on our FM rock station. It perked up a lot of ears.
