Her Royal Highness: Queen

I like different styles of rock music, from the soft rock of Billy Joel and Electric Light Orchestra to the explosive rock of Deep Purple and Black Sabbath to the progressive and beautiful rock of Genesis, Pink Floyd  and Yes, but between all this bands my favorite is one that can play all this styles and do it very fine, the one and only QUEEN.
John Deacon in bass and occassionally keyboards, Brian May in his homemade guitar, the Red Special, and occasionally vocals and keyboards, Roger Taylor in drums and occasionally vocals and the best frontman in the history of rock Freddie Mercury in vocals and piano, are the membres of this perfect square of rock.
 For 20 years they make happy people through his music, music that evolve from a progressive and hard rock in his debut album Queen and his continuation Queen II to a mixture of styles like pop-rock, hard rock, progresive rock, folk rock, opera and others in his best album A Night at the Opera to  arena-rock in albums like News of the World and The Game and many other albums to finish with the intense and emotive Innuendo, the last album making before the tragic death of Freddie Mercury, one of the saddest moments in music.
Therefore I love Queen, they make many styles of music and they do it well, very few bands can do that, even his worst album, the disco-funk Hot Space, had very good disco songs, a style so different to the clasic rock that they ussually play.
 Between all the songs of Queen I had 3 favorites, Bohemian Rhapsody, because I think that it's the best song ever written, Somebody to Love, because his vocal harmonies and intensity and, finally, It's a Hard Life, the most beautiful song that Queen ever made.
