Songs you’re embarrassed to confess to liking…

I have a soft spot for Seaside Rendezvous, which I've often seen some dislike for. And Sweet Lady isn't all that bad either.

Pain is So Close to Pleasure is pretty damn great. Love the falsetto. I like Seaside Rendezvous and Khashoggi's too. And I've always loved Who Needs You. I'm a sucker for basically any John song.

I don't know how sensible and knowledgeable fans feel, but I love Lily of the Valley.

I remember loving Man On The Prowl in my younger days, which I know isn’t well liked by many.
I still enjoy Pain Is So Close To Pleasure
A lot of fans have repeatedly said they don’t like Headlong, which used to be one I played to death. I’ve always loved that video
I like Delilah. Kashoggis ship had always been a great track to me, still love it, especially as a stand alone early take in recent times.

I'm not embarrassed by any song i like. What a waste of time and energy.

I really love Party / Khashoggi's Ship and I think that they are a great album opener.

On the opposite side, I am not too fond on AOBTD. While Freddie's vocals are killer, other than that, it's just another song for me.

That deserves a ban!

My Baby Does Me and Leaving Home Ain't Easy

All of Hot Space, and definitely all of Mr. Bad Guy. Except I'm not embarrassed - most folk think I should be.

I went through a phase last year where I listened to We Believe at least three times every day for, oh, six months or so. I’m not exaggerating: that’s ~550 times in the span of ~180 days. I have reasons for that, but I reacquainted myself with all of The Cosmos Rocks during that period and I’d forgotten how much I enjoyed it. Ridiculous lyrics like having criminal urges to twist and shout and getting the cosmos rockin’ don’t phase me anymore, and I appreciate them as goofy, fun, tongue-in-cheek lyrics instead of trying to relay grand, sweeping messages (mostly: see Warboys and We Believe). I find it to be really a solid album, with moments of inspiration (Time to Shine, Small, We Believe, Some Things That Glitter, and Surf’s Up) among probably some more conventional but still enjoyable songs. The one song that makes the least impression on me is Through the Night, and even that’s still not a bad song at all. And that year (2008) was one of high highs and some of the lowest lows of my life (up to that point, little did I know it could get much worse!!) but the album came out at a pivotal point when the planets seemed to be aligning in my favor, and so I have extremely fond memories tied to this album.

I know Brian and Roger probably won’t ever record a Queen+ album with Adam, but I think it’d be interesting to hear what they’d come up with. At the very least I’d love it if they recorded a new version of C-lebrity!

Not at all embarrassed but, given the lack of love expressed for them in general, I personally like Sweet Lady and In Only Seven Days.

Sweet Lady, in particular, I’ve never understood the dislike for. I’ve always felt it to be an all out rocker musically and there are far worse songs lyrically in the Queen Catalogue.

As much as Jeff Lynne borrowed from the Beatles, it’s only recently that I found out how much Paul Weller nicked the Changingman riff from the 10538 Overture.

What goes around comes around, indeed.

3 of my faves there!

My favorite driving song is Gimme the Prize. I remember driving on the highway and when it got to the bagpipe guitar solo I slammed down on that gas pedal and was able to get my 1990 Buick station wagon up to a heart-stopping 65 mph. By the time I got up to speed the song was over, sure, but it was a thrill gradually gaining speed and having that solo blasting.

Luckily I’ve been able to replicate that feeling in subsequent newer, more powerful cars…
