Yeah.

There's another poll with all the greats, this one's mostly for the underdogs.

I'll go for Ogre Battle. That song is so epic!

Ogre Battle, but only because you neglected to add The March of the Black Queen.

It's in the other poll, would've been weird to add the same song into 2 polls Smile

Ah, yes. The other poll. Just like this one. Except with different Queen songs. Posted at about the same time. Gotcha.

Love 'em all but The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke is so much fun.

As great as Ogre Battle is, The Fairy Feller's Master Stroke rules as a Prog song (besides March of the Black Queen). And Nevermore is just so beautiful...

My fave Queen toons are Great King Rat, Liar, Dragon Attack and Innuendo.
The first album is the only one I bother with though.

Ogre Battle, for May's guitar work and the screams Mercury does in the middle.

Bravo - cool song, Dragon Attack.

My vote for this poll goes to White Queen.

Ogre Battle.

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Tough choice. I went for White Queen.

No love for brilliant My Fairy King and early heavy metal classic Great King Rat?
