QUEEN was my next favorite band. They are one of most well-known British band after Beatles era. It was during my senior high school time, in the 80's. I like most of their songs. They were among the first band which using modern sound effect in their recordings which quite distinct at that period of time. And their music not just pure rock, it's what I called sweet rock because it quite colorful, rich of melodies, and full of variances.
Songs like Bohemian Rhapsody, We Will Rock You, and We Are The Champion are their signature and most popular songs during that time and still nice to hear those songs nowadays, especially Bohemian Rhapsody which very strongly associated with their success. And, We Are The Champion, become one of a 'must' song to sing to celebrate a winning.
It's a pity that their lead singer, Freddy Mercury, died due to AIDS which was quite shocking. One of his song recorded before he died, Too Much Loves Will Kill You, probably a warning message to other people not to follow his path.
