I’m a bit curious ! What is your top 10 of Freddie’s songs (not necessarily written by him and not necessarily in solo) outside of Queen ?
Here is mine : 1. Guide me home / How can I go on 2. Love kills 3. Time 4. Living on my own 5. I was born to love you 6. Made in heaven 7. Barcelona 8. In my defence 9. There must be more to life than this 10. My love is dangerous (all these tracks in their original version, yes I love the disco/club vibe  ) |

There are so many remixes and re-makes of Freddie's solo songs, and in some cases those are better than Freddie's original versions (for example, I don't really like the original version of My Love is Dangerous, but the Jeff Lord-Alge mix is great. Also the Queen version of Made In Heaven is superior to the original.) These versions would definately make it to my list, but if I think of Freddie's original work, my list is as follows:
1. Goin' Back (I just love this song, and young Freddie's delivery)
2. Barcelona (his masterpiece with Montsy)
3. Mr. Bad Guy (His best solo song, imo. Why the rest of the album didn't sound as great as the title track?)
4. Love Kills
5. Time
6. In My Defence
7. Love Me Like There's No Tomorrow
8. Foolin' Around
9. How Can I Go On
10. There Must Be More To Life Than This

For mine:
How Can I Go On
Love Me Like There's No Tomorrow
There Must Be More To Life Than This

The remaining top 5 in my list would have to vary depending on how I'm feeling on the day, ect.

My favorite songs:
1) Made In Heaven
2) There Must Be More to Life Than This
3) I Was Born to Love You
4) Love Kills
5) Mr. Bad Guy
6) Love Me Like There's No Tomorrow
7) How Can I Go On
8) The Golden Boy
9) Foolin' Around
10) Your Kind of Lover
I'd include The Great Pretender, but that's a cover version.
Basically, I like all of his songs. It was hard for me to pick my top 10 favorites.
I don't even have any favorites. I have the same thing with Queen. All the songs are simply unique.

1. In My Defence
2. The Golden Boy
3. La Japonaise
4. Guide Me Home / How Can I Go On
5. I Was Born To Love You
6. Time
7. Made In Heaven
8. Living On My Own
9. Love Making Love
10. Love Me Like There's No Tomorrow
I gave priority to non-covers given that he was such a genius songwriter, otherwise The Great Pretender and I Can Hear Music would have made the list.
