What was the first Queen song that you remember hearing?

[salin]

"Killer Queen" must have been in jr high - didn't catch all of the lyrics... but I loved the song.

[Left Is Write]

1. Bohemian Rhapsody

[bridgit]

2. i 2nd that as my 1st...

[salin]

4. That one was epic

[asthmaticeog]

3. We Will Rock You.

Good shit, right there.

[salin]

6. 'til it got coopted by every pepband....

I LOVE the song - but for a while the pepbands made it a bit tired.

[darkstar]

5. Tie Your Mother Down

That is Queen, isn't it?

[salin]

7. it is... but I confess

I had to look it up.

[darkstar]

10. Well, I'm old...i.e., their other hits weren't out yet....

[Left Is Write]

11. It is, and it's one of my favorites.

[BulletproofLandshark]

8. The Bicycle Song

[stuntcat]

9. Another One Bites the Dust

I'm sure I'd heard a lot of Queen songs before it, I grew up hanging out at a pop radio station with my Dad. But I can remember this song because they played it every time I went to the skating rink, it was HUGE.

[crim son]

12. We Will Rock You.

I still love Queen.

[Ediacara]

13. We Will Rock You, although Killer Queen is BY FAR my fav.

[Alexander]

14. Another One Bites The Dust

It came out before I was born, but I remember hearing it on the radio and seeing the Terminator at a young age (younger than I was supposed to ;)), where the song was played as Arnie blasted Sarah Connor's roommate and boyfriend.

[Blue-Jay]

15. Fat Bottomed Girls

[grannylib]

16. Whatever they played first when I saw them in concert in 1974 or 1975 in

LaCrosse, WI...$5 tickets...went with some friends. Had never heard any of their music until I got there. Can't remember what they played first. Kansas opened for them.

[AlCzervik]

17. Fat bottom girls.

[NightWatcher]

18. One Vision

it was played in the movie Iron Eagle, which HBO reran a million times one summer while I was a kid.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

19. Bohemian Rhapsody

I was 11 at the time and had just moved to a new country where they had a program showing the top 50 singles that my sister and I used to watch faithfully every weekend. "Bohemian Rhapsody" had just been re-released in the aftermath of Freddie Mercury's untimely death and the video was being shown on the chart singles program. My sister and I really liked the song and she asked me to get her a Queen tape for her birthday. So I did and my love affair with Queen started

20. Killer Queen was first for me. My older brother had the single and played it a LOT

[LynneSin]

21. Another with Bohemiam Rhapsody

I remember hearing that back in 5th grade. We had a homework assignment where we were to bring in poetry as represented in music and then some of us would be selected to read our 'poems' we chosed. Mine was Bohemian Rhapsody - I love that song!

[datasuspect]

22. killer queen, sometime in kindergarten or first grade.

[Matamoros]

23. Freddy was Indian

I cannot understand why Faroukh (Freddie Mercury) would hide the fact that he was Indian. I think that's cool.

He's certainly the most famous person of Indian ancestry in show business - worldwide.

He was one of the world's most amazing talents and most gifted showmen. What a loss.

[bertha katzenengel]

24. Somebody to Love n/t

[Joe Fields]

25. Keep it Alive.

That song got me interested, but after that I lost interest fairly quickly.

[1gobluedem]

26. Killer Queen

My sister got that album when I was a freshman in high school and played the daylights out of it.

[Jokerman]

27. "Sheer Heart Attack" with "Killer Queen" was the first album I bought.

I got a couple of albums as gifts before that but Sheer Heart Attack was the first album I spent my own money on.
