I vote for Seven seas of Rhye just because it is a favorite of mine, but I don't think it's the best song on the album. That may probably be March of the black Queen or White Queen, but I can't decide, they're all damn good to make a definitive choice. Also Father to son and Nevermore are good contenders...

Father to Son is my favourite...magnificently heavy, those amazing Roger Taylor hi-hats cutting through the wall of guitars, and also with an incredible emotional punch. Pretty much what Queen, at their best, were all about.

There's no living in my life anymore
The seas have gone dry
And the rain's stopped falling
Please don't you cry any more
Can't you see
Listen to the breeze
Whisper to me please
Don't send me to the path of nevermore

Even the valley's below
Where the rays of the sun
Were so warm and tender
Now haven't anything to grow
Can't you see?
Why did you have to leave me? (nevermore)
Why did you deceive me? (nevermore)
You sent me to the path of nevermore
When you say you didn't love me anymore
Ah ah nevermore nevermore

I'm not voting on this one. To pick out one track from such a superb album doesn't make sense to me.

It's been a while since I did so much soul-searching just to vote in a prog-poll, but then this was the first prog album I fell in love with (a whopping 19 years ago!) ...

White Queen, with Ogre Battle, Seven Seas of Rhye and March Of The Black Queen running it close ...

"Death to Utopia! Death to faith! Death to love! Death to hope?" thunders the 20th century. "Surrender, you pathetic dreamer.”



"No" replies the unhumbled optimist "You are only the present."

PROCESSION

with "White Queen (as it began)" as a close second.

I have always preferred Brian May's compositions (I have never been a big fan of Queen though).
