[@lellygarwood6097]

sometimes...all you need is Queen.

[@sonjoestar3613]

Lelly Garwood yea but it lost that that campy feeling after getting too... mainstream? it was gay at the beginning but by the good mean,.then it's gotten gay in a pop meaning and even i don't understand what i'm saying but you get it guess...

[@Ranyanya]

So true I give the 42th like ô/

[@latsyvepgm]

It's exactly that

[@buffedvolcarona7727]

Or love, if your a beatles-fan

[@kazabushy]

I never thought it was gay or campish at all. It was just Queen. Then in the early 80's the gay word became more of a label in conversation. Changed the connotation of my favourite ice block "Gaytime". I didn't even know until the early 80's that Freddie was gay or bisexual. Didn't care either. Then AIDs became a worldwide word. Remember this is before computers. We were taught about it in high school. I love the name Queen. Imagine if Brian and Rodger insisted they kept the name Smile?

As a life-long Queen fan, this feels like the one song that gives us all four guys completely loving what they do. Roger and Brian not just hitting it hard, but really meaning it. Deacon absolutely smashing the bass and Freddie, more than ever, singing beyond perfection to bring us absolute heaven.

This is probably Brian May's masterpiece. He wrote a great tune and really shines on guitar. Freddie, of course, takes it to astonishing heights with his godly vocal delivery. Great harmonies from the guys, as well. I love it!

[@gretelkulupka8704]

Woah! Where did you see them?

[@Phlebas]

One thing I love about Queen is that all four members have their own musical style so you get a nice mix of Roger's hard rock, John's funk, Brian's catchy melodic pieces and Freddie's experimental stuff. I love songs from each of the members. While I'd say '39 is my favourite Brian May song, It's Late is a close second.

[@mariadanielaoliveracalvo7040]

C Y D E E yes. He hits F6 on the worst legs of the shows. He hits an F6 at one of the November shows, maybe the last one. It's on Keep Yourself Alive. He also hits an F6 on 9/5/1885 Under Pressure. He hits A6 on the BBC session of It's Late.

The most phenomenal vocals in music imo. Freddie could do that gritty, raspy sound, he could do more smooth, soft pop kind of vocals, he could do opera. He could make his vocal cords do gymnastics like nobody else. He is my favorite by far and I absolutely love him.

Most underrated song of all time. The essence of Queen. A stroke of genius.

[@theodorecomps5035]

The first time I heard this track, I was blown away by the drumming of Roger. He is so underrated as a drummer. He ranks up there with the great ones. Sure he's no Ginger Baker, Neil Peart, John Bonham, and Keith Moon, but damn he's fantastic. Now about the lyrics, Brian really hit the nail on the head with this one. One of his hidden masterpieces with the band. John Deacon is also a fantastic bassist. He really accents the song with his playing and meshing perfectly with Roger. Finally, we get to Freddie's vocals. What more can one person say that hasn't already been said all over the world. I miss hearing his voice with new material every day. He is sadly missed by me, just like all of the past musicians I have listened to over the past 46 years. God Save The Queen......

[@raquelspersonalopinion3598]

💯💜👏🎤🎶🎹🎸💯 Freddie was absolutely correct when he said they would never split ! " Why kill the goose that laid the golden egg " ? These 4 gentleman brought more joy to so many people , spanning over 4 generations , and easily going into 5 , I know my parents had all of their records and quite possibly even 8 tracks , I owned all of their cassettes , records , tapes and CD's , and my children and their children too now own all of their music , either on their phones or their mp3 players or their IPods , and I thoroughly believe that my grand children's children will also be listening to them long after this ol' bird is dead and gone!! As all of us die hard Queen and Freddie fans are probably hoping for as we dance around our houses cleaning , with our grand children following , helping us do " the 10 second tidy " , singing along with the greatest boy band history will never forget!! 💚💚

[@adamteague462]

He's not too far behind, amazing drummer...my favourite ahead of Peart and Bonham.

[@adamteague462]

Peart and Bonham also had the luxury of playing the drums without having to sing..one of the hardest things you can do as a drummer, play and sing at the same time.

I have never heard this played on radio, even rock radio stations. They just play a few of their songs these days. When they were active with Freddie, they got lots of airplay in the UK, so its only fair that the current music artists get their chance to make it big.

[@roxannerolle1319]

This song (and the entire "News of the World" album) has such a special place in my choices of favorite songs. I would like to point out what Brian May does in his guitar solo. He uses finger-tapping. Eddie Van Halen is widely credited as the first to use this technique in rock music. Van Halen's debut album was release in 1978. "News of the World" was released in 1977.

[@38Achilles]

+Roxanne Rolle, good observation, however Steve Hackett from Genesis was tapping long before both of them. See Genesis live 1973, 12:05 mark.

Queen possessed all the best quality of music we are looking. Can't find something to dislike. Each day I'm falling in love with their songs.

[@doxaforthesoul]

The most underrated Queen song EVER.

[@garyt.s.368]

YES.

I'm not a huge fan of the movie 'Observe and Report,' but at least I can thank that film for introducing me to this TERRIFIC song -- or, at least RE-introducing me to it. No doubt I'd heard it back in the day once or twice, but had long forgotten it. Some tunes on 'News of the World' tend to get buried underneath the weight of the megahits that are the first two tracks. Anyway...this song KICKS it.

Freddie's voice was legendary before he became a legend

[@Gabriel-bw2in]

Brian's riff and Fred's voice are crushing And see, I love WWRY and Champions, but they are just the shadow of Spread your Wings and this masterpiece. Top

Great song, great band, great everything.

[@kellysmith8845]

Agreed

[@leonardobarba5304]

There are many not very known Queen songs that are wonderful!

[@kimstefanoni3774]

I've heard this song many, many times. But still get chills every single time I hear it.

[@hawnyfox3411]

I went "off" Queen when 1978's "Jazz" came out, but "News of the World" 1977 was their last album I bought Co-incided with when I left High school to start work, so, a VERY significant time span for me (Album collector) By 1979 I was declaring to everyone I knew that "It's Late" was singlehandedly THE finest track Queen EVER recorded It's now Jan' 2024 and nearly five decades later, my opinion hasn't changed one jot, not even one iota If you'll excuse the untended pun , such "MAGIC"

[@h.u9867]

same

[@boopboo552]

This song should've been released as a single!

[@scottlovett6541]

No matter how many times I listen to this song, it ALWAYS gives me chills: incredible number! Way underrated!

[@alinasacks8734]

Queen is the best band in the world 🌎❤️

[@Potterhead443]

Correct answer

[@user-hr4cn1vu8x]

Some great bass here

[@2charliep]

After literally decades of dithering, I’ve finally come to the conclusion that this might be my favourite Queen track.

[@tonylombardi4661]

Elon Musk should set aside his Mars goal and build a time machine so I can return to 1977 and see Queen live once again, my first concert.

[@carloseugeniocarlos4287]

One of the greatest vocal moments by Freddie.6:16 insane high note.

[@tommyculver6771]

Why this song isn't considered among Queen's top three I'll never understand. Such an amazing piece of art!

[@Daniela_Germany]

I think it's because Bohemian Rhapsody, The Prophet's song and Long away are above it for me. So it's "only" on place four. xD But never mind, that changes constantly anyway - mostly, my favourite Queen-song is the one I'm just listening too. I feel like there are at least 20-30 songs which would deserve to be Nr. 1 in their own right. Update one month later: It's number three now. :-)
