Play the game with Queen in the 80s way. The first use of synthesizer on a Queen album is found here making it clear what decade we're in. A little less crazier than "Jazz", but still a unique collection of songs that range from everything between rockabilly and funk rock, the latter giving Queen success with their hit "Another One Bites the Dust" and ultimately inspiring them to make their next album "Hot Space" full of similar funk rock songs!
Favourite tracks: "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" & "Sail Away Sweet Sister" [First added to this chart: 11/26/2013]

Not the typical flash of brillance we're used to from Queen, but fair enough; it's only a soundtrack album. Some of these instrumental pieces are interesting enough, most of the time though the film's missing to make a meaningful experience. It's an odd one compared to any other Queen studio album, but at least you get to hear the actual good ol' familiar Queen sound here and there, including one genuinely good, not only piece, but actual song (the theme of the movie)!
Favourite tracks: "Flash's Theme" & "In the Space Capsule (The Love Theme)" [First added to this chart: 09/22/2015]
