I voted for all of them because I just felt it wasn't fair to single one out above the others. The 4 of them made the band, not any single member plus 3 others.

Definitely Freddie.
Since 1992 I have been learning every Queen song on piano and trying to emulate the style that Freddie used in his playing. At this stage I’ve learned about 95% of the Queen catalogue on piano in the same style used on the album. The remaining 5% I can play but I feel there’s room for improvement eg March of the Black Queen , Big Bad Leroy Brown (live version) and Barcelona (which is a behemoth of a piece to learn).
I have Freddie to thank for bringing me from playing a few chords pre-1991 to where I am today, a gigging musician playing Queen songs live.

Barcelona's piano was all Mike Moran. Odds are, he didn't just play the piano, he probably wrote the part too (hence the credit as co-author). It doesn't sound like Freddie's style of writing for the piano at all to me.

It doesn't sound like Freddie's style of writing for the piano at all to me. I seem to remember he's credited as the sole arranger on the single. So he played the piano, arranged the part and also arranged and played all of the synthesisers, and probably arranged the backing vocals as well. Said backing vocals, by the way, were mostly sung by Frederick, but both Roger and Michael are also there. |

RT of course, for Queen proper. But across the board it'd have to be Spike  |

For a band that never had any lineup changes - from some point before their 1st album - Queen sure has had quite a few Members within their ranks!

Seek help.

There, we probed depths of dumbness that you couldn't begin to fathom! This question would not have merited mention as even moderately silly by our ancient standards! Ah, those halcyon days! |
