A KIND OF MAGIC

1985 or the musical slap, the arrival of an album, the album of the year, that's good, it was necessary to help me pass my classes faster!

1 One Vision intro ... it's prog, that's CQFD; good the rise the air which will arrive, rock yes but rock with the inimitable QUEEN; Roger, John, Brian ensure, Freddie too, we don't know or we don't want to see the discomfort, in short the title which will pass as a soundtrack on a film of airplane history and Brian's solo which is already intoxicating, famous, but the intro prog eh, like the end 2 A Kind Of Magic for one of the most watched music videos, magic that; the title that flows naturally, inscribed in our musical unconscious, personally I have always dreamed that these sparks project me into their world, nay; in short, how to talk about a title that you live, that you sublimate, one of those who made your army pass even faster, I will never thank QUEEN enough and my walkman who held up during the guards, my A/R in train lying like a bundle of dirty laundry, souvenir, souvenir 3 One Year Of Love for the soft ballad track with Steve Gregory's sax which adds a layer of butter to the expression of this title dripping with melancholic emotion; a syrupy orchestration that passes like a marshmallow melting in the sun 4 Pain Is So Close To Pleasure for the second soft title, let me explain: from time to time Freddie wanted a title to use his voice, just her, this title is one of them, it's a beautiful dancing folk pop ballad with its slow smack of the 70s, its backing vocals, something that if you didn't know you'd say it's who... well, the solo doesn't lie anyway 5 Friends Will Be Friends for the grandiloquent, baroque title, the one where the public takes over the chorus in force, where Freddie is lulled by his overheated audience, where the synths want to be majestic wrapped in Brian's last solo 6 Who Wants To Live Forever arrives, second side... Michael Kamen guides the orchestra, it goes up, a little violins, pads, a little emotion with Freddie and his cheese organ, everything is done for become cult, to the point of passing as the soundtrack of a cult film too; the guitar, the drums, remember this intense crescendo, this progressive explosion, the beauty quite simply with this children's choir 7 Gimme The Prize (Kurgan's Theme) Brian who wants to emulate Eddie? a solo that puts a tap in the back of your head, how is that possible? A tough air, but tough tough with the violence, the fight, the smell of perspiration from wanting to keep your head; give him his reward he is waiting for that; a heavy title as I like, without losing weight, a title that reminds us that QUEEN was above all rock, in short the clip with a nod to Christophe 8 Don't Lose Your Head I was talking about your head... don't lose; an electro track with monolithic synth and a back voice that bewitches you, hypnotizes you; it reminds me on 'News of' these titles pass everywhere a nothing funky-dancing-multicolored-barjot which threw the trouble on the drawer to find for QUEEN; well no drawer, just QUEEN this sound; the heady finale, it's funny when we talk about not losing it... ah the solo that pierces your head, that navigates to the right, to the left, dangerous this title 9 Princes Of The Universe symbol of Highlander or the ultimate musical high; a nasty riff, the drums coming out of 14-18, this heavy air, these choirs, all the summary of the album is there, in short a glorious end to this unrepeatable, indescribable and... fabulous album.

In short, an OMNI album there too, but an OMNI that we had already spotted in area 51!!!
