Just a great album!

Review Score:

(10/10)
I've been reading some of the reviews on Amazon and I'm a little perplexed. To me, there a so many good songs on this album, I'm a little surprised that any of the reviews are negative.
On this album, you've got "Don't stop me now", surely one of the best songs Freddie ever wrote. Then there's "Fat Bottom Girls", sexixt maybe but who cares when its such a super song.
Then there's "Leaving home ain't easy" and "In only seven days" which are beautiful songs with plenty of feeling.
There are good rockers too. "Let me entertain you" and "Leave on time" are just great. Then there's the clever but strange "Mustapha" and the funky "Fun It" which also hits the spot (not normally my cup of tea at all}.
I remember when I first listened to this album. I didn't like it much. But then oh boy!. Maybe this is why such a surprising number of people wrote negative reviews. Or maybe some people don't like (or can't handle) the wide variety of musical styles that are on the album. For me, this album belongs in the top 6 that Queen have produced, along with "A Nght at the Opera", "Innuendo", "Queen 2" "News of the World" and "Flash Gordon". I might even be able to push it into the top 4, but I don't really think its necessary.
Queen have produced some super albums and this is definitely one of them. I think most of you who are considering purchasing this album will absolutely love it!
