[KevShmev]

You can vote for up to 7.

I will go with:

Great King Rat
Liar
White Queen
The March of the Black Queen
Flick of the Wrist
Lily of the Valley
'39

[Imaginos]

I went with

Great King Rat
Brighton Rock
Lily of the Valley
'39
It's Late
All Dead, All Dead
My Melancholy Blues

[TAC]

I really can't vote. I have most of their albums due to the fact that my wife loves them, but we don't really listen to them.

She does love '39 though.




(And don't even think about it, assholes!) 

[Schurftkut]

too bad Long Away and And You And I aren't in this list, because i'd have voted for those two instead of two others i now voted for :-)

[Crow]

bohemian rhapsody

[Mladen]

Great poll. 

March of the Black Queen
Flick of the Wrist
Death on Two Legs (top 5 Queen song)
'39
You Take My Breath Away
The Millionaire Waltz
Mustapha (top 5 Queen song)

[DebraKadabra]

Death on Two Legs and I'm In Love With My Car. Would have voted for The Prophet's Song if it was on the list - that one, IMO, is even better than Bohemian Rhapsody.

[Schurftkut]

Death on Two Legs and I'm In Love With My Car. Would have voted for The Prophet's Song if it was on the list - that one, IMO, is even better than Bohemian Rhapsody.

sure is

[erwinrafael]

Wow, I had a hard time voting. So many great songs here.

Quite sad that It's Late has very few votes. That's one of the best songs in their catalogue.

[Destiny Of Chaos]

I voted for all of the Queen II songs and Death on Two Legs. March of the Black Queen is my favorite song by the band, and DoTL isn't too far behind.

Me three....

I adore Long Away, but there are just too many deep cuts and I couldn't include them all.

Quite sad that It's Late has very few votes. That's one of the best songs in their catalogue.

That one just missed the cut for me here.

Also, I almost voted for Son and Daughter, merely off of the strength of the 7-minute BBC version that has that long guitar solo. 

[Stadler]

C'mon; a Queen "deep cuts" and no "Funny How Love Is?" or "The Prophets Song"? 

C'mon.

[KevShmev]

I tried to put the best ones.

[SoundscapeMN]

March of the Black Queen is the biggest winner on this list, but it's pretty much sacrilege to not include The Prophet's Song.

[Mladen]

I think The Prophet and March are actually too famous and huge to be considered deep cuts. What is a deep cut, actually? Is it like a hidden gem on an album? A great song that isn't as popular?

[Stadler]

I tried to put the best ones.

I'm just busting on you; basically, Queen has 15 studio albums, so roughly 160 studio, album-released songs plus or minus, and about 20 songs that WOULDN'T qualify as "deep tracks".   So you did good; that was just my way of saying that I feel those two are underappreciated.

"Funny How Love Is?" might be my favorite Queen song ever.   (Or One Vision, which is definitely not a deep track).   And "The Prophets Song" always gets overshadowed by BoRhap and You're My Best Friend.   

[Podaar]

Great King Rat
Liar
March of the Black Queen
Flick of the Wrist
Death on Two Legs
I'm in Love with My Car
Mustapha

[Elite]

Mustapha Ibrahim

[Chris Hinton]

Deep cut or not, '39 is in my top 5 favorite Queen songs ever.  Death on Two Legs is in my top 10.

[MirrorMask]

Finally a poll where I don't feel a total n00b!!!

Voted for:

Great King Rat - absolutely awesome rocking song, I love it. Every time in May I want to post it on FB, and every year I forget
White Queen - sweet and delicate ballad.
Ogre Battle - Queen go epic metal. Absolutely monstrous song, why no folk metal band ever covered it? are they all nuts?
March of the Black Queen - It's up there with The Prophet's Song as one of the best songs *E V E R* by Queen. The sheer insanity of Bohemian Rhapsody, dialed up to 11 and dressed in black. Absolutely mesmerizing masterpiece.
Flick of the Wrist - Another heavy and eerie song.
Death on Two Legs - Wicked as only Alice Cooper could go back in those days. The piano intro is something atmospheric black / doom metal bands only dream of.
White Man - Wonderful song with great lyrics. Another "folk" epic.

Songs I couldn't vote but wanted to for choices limitation: Lily of the Valley, I'm in Love with My Car, You Take My Breath Away and Let Me Entertain You.

All good.

I would say "basically yes" to your last two questions.

[MirrorMask]

March of the Black Queen to me is a deep cut. I dare anyone who knows Queen just from the Greatest Hits albums and the classics that get played in the radio to even acknowledge the existance of a song with this title, let alone know the album it's from and how it goes.

The Prophet's Song may be slightly more popular, but still Love of my Life and Bohemian Rhapsody steal all the attention on ANATO.

[Cruithne]

I'd take Good Company over all those listed except '39, which is among my top two or three favourite Queen songs.

As for Mustapha... ugh... I'm certain it wasn't intended as such but it ends up feeling like listening to the song equivalent of being around a slightly racist older relative.

[KevShmev]

I have never liked that song. The vast majority of Jazz is a total miss for me.

[TheAtliator]

Prophet's Song would have been my favorite from this list if it was there.

I chose:

March of the Black Queen
39
Mustapha
Death on Two Legs
Flick of the Wrist
Sweet Lady

[erwinrafael]

There are more votes for Mustapha than It's Late. Ugh.

[Mladen]

I love Mustapha. It's one of their more original, experimental songs. The changes, melodies and the ways it develops and grows are spectacular.

[Stadler]

The Prophets Song just got me eliminated from a roulette on this very site.   I came in 11th out of 10, and of the other ten, I literally heard of one band, and haven't heard ANY of the songs.   Ah, me.

Hah. The only song in that roulette's round was the one I sent. I'm not even familiar with The Prophet's Song.

Oh yeah, I know that song! We have A Night At The Opera in the CD collection.

[The Letter M]

I picked everything between "Father To Son" and "Lily Of The Valley". Back when I was on a huge Queen-trip a couple months ago, the first three albums got a TON of spins from me, so I've fallen in love with many of those songs.

Yeah, I'm probably too young to 'get' the sheer brilliance of that completely disjointed and tacky sounding two and a half minute acappella section, they're such masterminds for coming up with something that daring.

No one said it's "brilliant", and I don't disagree with your assessment (even some members of the band felt that way).   But in general, the musicianship and arrangement skills of the band are undeniable.  I'm not bagging on you at all; it's all taste, that's what roulettes are for.    But the last three 'elimination' submissions for me are Queen - The Prophets Song" (by the way, there is NO apostrophe), Band of Horses - No One's Gonna Love You, and Ozzy's Diary of a Madman.  That is BAFFLING to me.   Not because "I like it" or "I think it is great"; my taste doesn't matter one bit.   But there is a universal quality at least to the first and last of those.   Neither of those records went multi-platinum because they suck water.
