Definetly The Prophet's Song! Mercurys delayeffects are priceless and untouchable. Bohemian Rhapsody is a bit overplayed, yes.

Situation that rules your world (despite all you've said)
I would strike against it but the rule displaces...

BR is overplayed, but The Prophet's Song tends to drag, though it is still Freddie's third greatest vocal performance behind Somebody to Love and BR.

Voted for Prophet's song.  It's prog, it's heavy-metal but it's not prog-metal! One more thing:It's impossible to tell where the Prophet's Song is ending and where the next track is beginning! I never heard any other song ending so smoothly!

I voted for "Bohemian" : I guess that it is the most emblametic Queen song.
I like "The Prophet's Song" a lot though.
Cheers.

Well said. The prophet's song is easily in my top 5 favorite Queen songs. Especially that vocal delay/loop effect section.

In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises
Shatter the illusion

prophet's song. very underplayed. delay singing is amazing, the way he makes a sentence of off beat and on beat echoing that overlap to say,"I hear you, come here". its genious.

I could repeat almost everything mentioned above ... concerning The Prophet's Song! TPS is prog IMO, very innovative, daring and totally beyond any categorisation. Totally inspired and just-perfect. 
But this "victory" is not hands down, because both songs come very close to my all time fave.

Bohemian Rhapsody is a conceptual masterpiece. The Prophet's Song is still great, but didn't enthrall me as long as BR has.

Bohe... Proph... Bohemian... Prophet's S... Bohemian Rhap...
Prophet's song.
It's longer.
And doesn't have R(h)ap in the title.
But BH is an astonishing piece of work too.

The Prophet Song for mine! ...and that's evened it up again at 22 a piece 
I think both are great but TPS is tops.
I suppose I should mention I'm old enough to have seen Queen on their A Night At The Opera tour when I was still at school  Are you jealous   |
