Rolling Stone's 184th greatest album of all time
Superb early greatest hits from the queen of pop. For me this is by far her best material and some of the best pop songs ever.

Sleeping Beauty or The Snow Queen?

Even though I liked the book I didn't see the connection to Sleeping Beauty. I drew more parallels to the Snow Queen. The curse that strips someone of emotion all the references to ice get my point? I mean, there are SEVERAL versions of the Sleeping Beauty tale none of which I saw.

Yes, Jade is given a storybook with that particular tale but that's the only time I saw the connection. It honestly makes me sad.

2018 | Rock, Soundtrack
Being a fan of Queen it is very difficult to stay biased while reviewing this soundtrack. Personally I would recommend it to anyone from a novice to a know it all. Highlights for me would be the live tracks that this album includes, especially "Now I'm Here" for me that is the live song that first got me really into Queen so has a special place in my heart. The inclusion of some of the tracks from LiveAid was brilliant as well, however I would have preferred the soundtrack to have the whole Live Aid set. I did like the inclusion of "Doing All Right" by Smile (Brian May and Roger Taylor's band before Queen) adding an insight to their beginnings. Overall it is a brilliant soundtrack and one I recommend to all.

This is brilliantly produced and gives a 'The Queen is Dead' a run for it's money - probably out runs it too. (2 more)
