   • 'Bohemian Rhapsody' From 'A Night at the Opera' (1975) Was there really a question what would top the Best Queen songs list? This multi-part epic, painstakingly created with razor blades on state of the art machinery that could still barely match the sounds in Freddie Mercury's head, has gone on to become universally accepted as their masterwork.
   • 'We Will Rock You / We Are the Champions' From 'News of the World' (1977) Obviously, either of these songs could be on a list of the best Queen songs all by themselves, but it feels weird to talk about one without the other.
   • 'Another One Bites the Dust' From 'The Game' (1980) Queen bassist John Deacon steps into the spotlight, recording nearly all the instruments for this disco-rock classic after reportedly hanging out in the studio with "Good Times" creators Chic.
   • 'Under Pressure' (with David Bowie) From 'Hot Space' (1982) Queen team up with art-rock hero David Bowie to create a song so infectious, sturdy and undeniable that it was able to stand up to, and ultimately outlast, one of the most heinous and large-scale assaults on musical good taste that's ever been foisted on the world.
