Music reviews of News of the World

Music Review: THE NEWS
Rating: 5 Stars

We all know "We Are the Champions" and "We Will Rock You" which are classics, but the rest of the album is just as timeless. I liked the songs "We Will Rock You," "We Are the Champions," "Sheer Heart Attack," "Spread Your Wings," "Who Needs You," and "My Melancholy Blues." I don't think I need to tell you how much I love "We Will Rock You" and "We Are the Champions." All I'll say is "Classic!" "Sheer Heart Attack" is a really cool song."It's late" rocks and "Fight from the inside" pure Roger Taylor! I like "Spread Your Wings" because it's about determination to find a better life. I love the song "Who Needs You." It's a song you can really get into."Get down Make love" gets better every year."Sleeping on the sidewalk" is one my all time fav Brian May songs. I think this is a great album, so if you're a Queen fan go and add it to your collection! This has always been one of my favorite QUEEN cd's.

Description of News of the World

Japanese remastered (2001 digital remastering) reissue of 1977 album packaged in a miniature LP gatefold sleeve, features 11 tracks. Virgin. 2004.
When it was released in 1977, News of the World seemed at loggerheads with a music world that had moved beyond Queen's operatic pomprock and on to punk. In fact, the album was more in step with the punk scene than the output of most superstar acts of the time, as it contains Roger Taylor's furious "Sheer Heart Attack" and Freddie Mercury's lean, brutal "Get Down, Make Love." Of course, News is famous for its opening medley, "We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions." Attend any sports event in the Western world, and you'll hear the former. If it's a championship match and the home team wins, you'll hear the latter. That's a tribute to the staying power of the music, but News of the World offers proof that, even as Queen maintained their position as rock & roll royalty, they continued to evolve and react to the times. --Daniel Durchholz
