 Rating: - HIt & Miss, but the hits are GREAT!For everything I would have said, see the review by P. Baker-he literally said everything the way I would have said it. Buy the album, the songs that are good are worth the price. Rating:  - Only two good songsThe only songs I can stand listening to on this album are Rooney's amazing "Death on Two Legs" and Sum 41's surprisingly good "Killer Queen." Joss Stone's "Under Pressure" makes me sick. Rating:  - Not too shabby!Hardly the best Queen tribute album out there but some songs are worth listening... I might even dare to say that, in some cases, I enjoyed the cover versions more than the originals. Anyway, here's my 2 cents: ONE STAR We are the Champions, Under pressure To me, the worst songs on the album. The whole soulish innuendos didn't do it to me. The chorus on 'Champions' is supposed to be inspiring, a tour de force if you will. Instead we get a poor, sluggish delivery and that ... Read More Rating: - Pretty decent cover record. I would give 5 stars if no Constantine.Constantine's version of Bohemian Rhapsody is way too "paint-by-numbers" and dare I say weaker than the original. Just like most of the American Idol covers on TV. The Flaming Lips version is not for the faint of heart. The track could be on any of their albums from the mid-eighties to 1995. It's the Lips doing what they always do. Joss Stone's cover of Under Pressure on one hand sounds great. On the other hand, the problem in my opinion is her vocals. She doesn't sing the lyrics with the ... Read More Rating:  - Murderous cover versionsIf ANYONE can cover a Queen song with the spirit of Freddie Mercury remaining intact, I say more power to them. Having said that, every copy of this absolutely excruciating album should be fired into the sun. To dignify it with any more extensive kind of review would mean having to subject myself to Jason Mraz's "Limp-Wristed Lover Boy" and Joss Stone's HORRIBLE attempt of "Under Pressure" one more time, and I won't do it. |
