4 stars 1. Mustapha intro ouch ouch ouch, and then the verse that you have to put louder, the sound doesn't come through well what's happening, allah... the chorus and you understand the debauchery of sounds arrives, the force of the oriental with Anglican rock; come on Brian launches into a solo from there, hey the entrance slap, visionary? 2. Fat Bottomed Girls with Brian on vocals; a heavy tune, the bass catchy, the drums in a corner ready to roar, precisely on the chorus; good old rock, a bit hard all the same; 4'15'' and the longest title ah your breasts, ah well I misunderstood, it doesn't matter; long final derivation which never ends 3. Jealousy with one of the first titles that makes me melt; jealousy no it has nothing to do with his adventures, no, no, the more sithar guitar of the 1001 and one nights to graze in the eunuch enclaves; the piano, the flowing, crystalline piano, the choirs ah these languorous choirs; ah these notes at the end with the creation of this noisy white, ah a musical orgasm what am I saying! 4. Bicycle Race ... for the subversive clip, how come you haven't seen it yet? In short, choirs, Jerry LEE-style piano, chorus explosion like on Mustapha and these bells, this guitar and this spinning, spinning stereo...; Shh, the doorbells, that's it, we're in; at one point my diamond was out and I was turning in my, imagine my dismay, attack slam duo battle between the voices, I want to ride my bicycle ah I wrote it once, pearl! 5. If You Can't Beat Them a conventional tune that smells of boogie, a rock hit that has never transcended me and which lasts too long even with the finale in two parts 6. Let Me Entertain You and the QUEEN-style rock that I love; bass, nervous drums, roaring guitar, who speaks more than Freddie who throws notes; phrasing voice, the air is angry, it goes in all directions, on grandiloquent hard rock, on frenetic hard rock, on madness as only they could do; the guitar follows the rhythm, makes a musical turn, these voices and this tune will be used well for 'Flash'

7. Dead on Time hop we get up, we change the face... a boogie riff that amplifies, that sets fire; place of honor for Roger who hits more than he can, come on; leave on time so much that it causes quickly, bam that's it the storm is falling on us 8. In Only Seven Days for the country ballad, for the pre-melancholy ballad, for John and his acoustic guitar, for all that, Brian who pleases us on his solo; a heady, easy pop tune from another time 9. Dreamer's Ball we have gone far away from Louisiana, probably with this tune from elsewhere at a slowed down tempo with this rhythm and this choir from New Orleans, the break with Freddie speaking on 42nd street and the opportunity to relax a little ; yes I like her less too, me the surly 10. Fun It... drums and electric pad, oum that's amazing; everybody, are you ready? Roger in the spotlight on the voice and behind the drums with a riff that makes you sway, not there with my tendon, yes state of mind, all right...aggressive title, overrated but dynamic which denotes considerably 11. Leaving Home Ain't Easy with Brian on vocals and a melancholic opening, oozing spleen; the air that reaches us goes back to the jazzy side of the East Coast of the USA, where it is always hot, where bodies sweat all the time; in short no need to leave music, special mention to the acoustic guitar 12. Don't Stop Me Now for the second hit, yes progueux / progueuses you read correctly, a title which was played on the radios, which advocated eternal joy, which gave into queenesque grandiloquence; a title, the title of the album for an absolute inconceivable beauty and this solo where we see Brian fiddling with his strings in a way that I personally cut the string by making the same gesture 13. More of That Jazz and Roger who dares the second escapade, yes with his gravelly voice it's easy too; 3 singers on this album still cause a stir, imagine someone who doesn't know it, it's amazing; more more no more .. of that jazz; heavy, gripping riff, you can feel the tension, the screams, everything is done to stress you out here; the latency with the choirs emerges; the end that you don't expect and bam a repeat of a few tunes from the previous titles, the ultimate progressive moment from which you get up to put the song back on; well let's ask ourselves...no more... of that jazz!
