Serious Read the Rules Before Posting (Update)

223 Upvotes

All posts must be reasonably linked to the band Queen

/r/Queen is a friendly place. Please be civil, and respect your fellow Queenies.

0 - No Politics. This sub is about the Music of Queen. There's plenty of subs in reddit to discuss politics.

1 - NO MEMES

Such content is better suited for /r/QueenCircleJerk or /r/Queemes

(However, original content that creates a proper Queen thread, could override this rule)

I encourage people to use a Flair

2 - No negative, troll, low effort posts

The mods reserve the right to remove negative, troll, low effort or spam posts at their discretion.

Low effort posts could include, but are not limited to, "favourite song/album" posts, tier rankings, A.I. generated images, reposts, google lyric mistakes, "X looks like/sounds like this Queen member" posts, and so on. It also could include, to an extent, Queen references in other media..

3 - No advertising. No Spam.

You may share that awesome merch you just got, but no direct links to sale pages.

Edit: If you post a thread of a Queen T-shirt it may get you banned as well, because there's a lot of spam of it. But I will review carefully when is possible.

4 - You must be over 13 years old to participate. Any underage accounts should be reported and will be banned. (Reddit Rules).

5 - The discussion of the private life of the family of any of the Queen members, as gossip, is not allowed

While sharing private pictures of Queen that are in the public domain already, is allowed, We should focus about Queen music and never build an obsession about their families, which are not part of Queen in any way.

6 - No Artificial Intelligence generated music, art or pictures.

7 - No Spotify Wrapped , Playlists, General rankings or Tier list. (When everyone does it, becomes spam. So, not allowed)

8 - No spam of Polls, Rankings and "Eliminating" games, everyday of people farming karma.

https://www.reddit.com/r/queen/comments/11mhrin/polls_rankings_and_eliminating_games_everyday_are/

2023:

9 - No Posts of Tickets on sale for the current Queen tour.

2024

10 - No drama and accusations from other plataforms. Edit: NO internal drama either please. Let's keep the place drama free. :)

This place is about Queen, not to discuss what could have happened in other forums or social plataforns. There's no way to establish truth and any accusation leads to toxic behaviour and unnecesary drama in the sub. They are usually behind alts so they will be banned permanently

Temporary bans will happen for those that keep breaking rules after warnings/deletion of their messages. Permanent bans will happen to spammers, trolls, and people being uncivil , harsh or harrasing other fellow Queenies in this sub.

I read all the reports once a day, and take action when I can.

2026: This is a mostly english speaking plataform, so let's try to keep the posts in english so you can engage to a broader audience and better engagement

Music Queen Greatest Hits 1 Track List Guide

25 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I had the idea to make this guide after having seen some people online talk about how they'd wish a certain track was on Queen Greatest Hits and in response I felt like chronicling every regional difference in Greatest Hits 1's track list.

I hope this list will be a good resource and be able to help Queen fans; new and old decide which vinyl, cassette or CD pressing of the album is right for them.

If you want to search for (or buy) any of these pressings/cassettes of Greatest Hits, they are all on the Queen Greatest Hits discogs page.

Before I start, there are some things I want to clarify:

  1. The U.K. track list will be considered the default and every pressing/cassette listed below will be compared to it.
  2. Only versions of the album that add and/or subtract songs from the U.K. original will be listed here. So, if there's a regional pressing/cassette not listed below, it's because it uses the original U.K. track list.
  3. "Some <country> pressings/cassettes" means that there are other pressings/cassettes from the same country that use the original U.K. track list instead.
  4. I won't be mentioning the packaging or sound quality of these pressings/cassettes, just the songs included in them.
  5. I'm only listing official album releases, no bootlegs.

Finally, if there are any particular songs or countries' pressings/cassettes you want to look for in this list, I recommend searching them up with Ctrl + F (or Command + F for Mac users) on your keyboard.

With all of that out of the way, here's every different track list to Queen Greatest Hits:

Vinyl:

U.S. and Canadian pressings:

Adds: Under Pressure and Keep Yourself Alive

Removes: Don't Stop Me Now, Save Me, Now I'm Here, Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy and Seven Seas Of Rhye

Note: The U.S. (and every other countries') pressings from 2016 onwards use the U.K. track listing.

Australian and New Zealand pressings:

Adds: Under Pressure, Keep Yourself Alive and Tie Your Mother Down

Removes: Don't Stop Me Now, Save Me, Now I'm Here, Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy and Seven Seas Of Rhye

Note: There's also a 1983 reissue from New Zealand that uses the U.K. track listing.

Dutch reissue, German Club Edition reissue, European reissue, Israeli reissue, some French reissue and some Spanish reissue pressings:

Adds: Under Pressure

Removes: Nothing

German pressings:

Adds: Spread Your Wings

Removes: Nothing

South Korean pressing:

Adds: Under Pressure, Love Of My Life, My Melancholy Blues and Mustapha

Removes: Bohemian Rhapsody, Another One Bites The Dust, Killer Queen and Bicycle Race

Notes: The reason for the songs above being removed was due to government censorship at the time, mainly regarding the lyrics of each song.

It's unknown if Love Of My Life on this version is from Live Killers, or if it's the original studio recording.

There's also a reissue from 1990 that uses the U.K. track listing.

There also exists a different South Korean Greatest Hits album from 1980, which predates the album we're all familiar with and has a completely different track listing too.

Music Just got into vinyl collecting, here is what I have so far

45 Upvotes

After collecting all studio albums, Freddie’s albums, and Brian’s albums on CD, I decided to venture into the world of vinyls. Here is my collection so far:

- Queen Original 1973 pressing Blair’s cut

- 1980 Original single of Play the Game (and B-Side A Human Body)

- A 50th anniversary edition of Bohemian Rhapsody single (obviously with I’m in Love with My Car)

Can’t wait to play these, and it will look especially cool to see that translucent blue spinning. I also wonder is there an very audible difference from the 2011 remasters and Blair’s original cut

Serious Live at Wembley Stadium DVD cover. Is this an official discarded DVD cover or a fan design?

Post image
26 Upvotes

About two decades ago, the only way my family could get DVDs was through pirated copies (since official ones were expensive). One day, my dad bought the Wembley concert (also a pirated copy). It was the 2003 edition, and it came with a very different cover, which I'm showing you in this post.

Was this an official design that was discarded, or was it made by a fan? And most importantly, does anyone have this same image but in good quality?

FanContent CUSTOM MIX: Keep Yourself Alive (De Lane Lea Instrumental with Final Album Vocals)

Thumbnail drive.google.com
5 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I just wanted to show this little project I've been working on. I've always been fascinated by how many versions of Keep Yourself Alive have been recorded. I thought it would be fun to make my own hybrid mix of the De Lane Lea demo featuring the vocals from the final album version. To do this, I put the 2024 mix of the demo through a vocal remover/stem splitter, then added the vocal stem from the Rock Tour mobile game, and mixed them together on Adobe Audition.

I know this mix is not perfect by any means, but I hope you all enjoy it!

Queen Birthday’s

Because it is Brian May’s birthday (Happy birthday, Brian), I have begun to wonder what you all in the fandom do to celebrate the birthday’s of the members of Queen. I know some of you go all out, while others may acknowledge silently. All answers welcome; even those who might say it is para-social to celebrate a birthday of somebody you do not know!

Serious Regarding the remaster of "We Will Rock You," which music video is better? The one from Greatest Flix or the one from Greatest Video Hits?

19 Upvotes

I wanted to include a comparison video of both with this post, but it seems YouTube blocked it.

After days of mystery, the remastered version of the "We Will Rock You" music video premiered on YouTube today, with the Greatest Flix version being the one chosen for its high quality.

However, the low-quality version (from GVH1), which is one of the most viewed on the official channel, remains in that poor quality we all know. Will there be another remaster of that version, or will they leave it as is?

So, which version of the "We Will Rock You" music video do you prefer?

Music Queen is on a roll with the releases lately, and with Live In Budapest in the works too. Is Sony stepping up with releases?

I have just extracted the DTS 5.1 audio of the 2nd Night of Live in Wembley 1986, and split them into 6 seperate sound channel stems, but for some specific reasons, it split into Side A and Side B, so I try to combine them together.
