| Some songs on Opera take a while to get into, but I immediately liked Death on Two Legs, Love of My Life, '39 and the vaudeville ditties (Lazing, Seaside Rendezvous, Good Company), and of course I already knew Best Friend and Bo Rhap. I guess if you don't like the lighthearted vaudeville type songs, it won't be as enjoyable.
You had never heard Another One Bites the Dust before?! I can hardly believe that. The song is played a lot on the radio (in the US as well, as it was their biggest hit) and it's used a lot on tv shows.
It's a phoenix on the cover (at first I thought the Queen crest wouldn't be on there at all, but then I remembered the American release of all 3 GH albums features the crest). The other symbols are two Lions to represent the two Leo's Deacon and Taylor, the crab represents May (Cancer) and the fairies represent Mercury's star sign Virgo.
So what did you think of Races? That one actually took me a while to fully appreciate, but now I love all the songs except White Man. |
