Theme Song from Flash Gordon – Queen Video & Lyrics

FLASH! Ah-ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh… Okay, you probably know this strange little song, even if you’re too young to have ever seen Flash Gordon on the big screen. (I’m actually too young to remember if I did or not, but this isn’t the point.) The point is that Queen was so versatile they could create hugely memorable tracks […]

A Stomping Good Time at the Tournament – Video and Lyrics to We Will Rock You from A Knight’s Tale

When Brian May told his group members in the Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody he wanted the audience to be the instrument for one of their rock songs, I realized just how brilliant the rest of the band was: it’s not all about the immortal Freddie Mercury. All these men had something special, and the glorious anthem […]

Don’t Stop Me Now – Video and Lyrics by Queen in Shaun of the Dead

I have two favorite funny zombie films, and alongside the awesome Zombieland, Shaun of the Dead is a near perfect zom-rom-com. (It’s also a great satire about modern man and modern life.) One of the best scenes features the Winchester Pub Team attacking the bar-owner-turned-zombie with pool cues, synchronized to the strains of the classic […]

What is a Scaramouch? The Meaning Behind Bohemian Rhapsody from Queen

Movie Review – Bohemian Rhapsody – Queen Will Rock You

Tears — check.  Racing heart — check. Goose pimples — check. Foot stomping good fun — check. A deeper appreciation for a beloved musician and band — double check. I love Queen’s music; always have, but I’ll be honest: I knew nothing about the band members and their story, and I’m glad I didn’t, because it made this […]

Quiz – How well do you know Queen’s music history?

I’ve tried to touch on most aspects of Queen’s career, but as prolific as this group was, it would take a quiz of a thousand questions to even come close to paying homage to this band‘s talents. [quiz-cat id=”11102″] I certainly enjoyed making this quiz and discovering that this band has a very rich history, […]
