I'm Lee.
when i had to do a stint as a kitchen porter, playing this on my walkman was the only way i kept my spirits up during the time spent scraping and washing pans in an outside 'annex' (roof over top but no wall behind me) of a very posh hotel during a cold winter. The chef said there was something wrong with me as no one smiled whilst doing that job!

The first Queen two albums are brilliant. I can live with the next couple but they tailed off into a poor joke after that.
The first couple of tracks on Bat Out Of Hell are worth its space on the shelf but the rest of the album is filler just waiting to be put into a rock musical IMHO.

Never liked 'Bat out of hell', 'Bohemian Rhapsody', Sultans of swing', Hotel California', Rocket man', to name but a few. Mainly because of the music, but also because all the people i knew who liked those tunes, work mates ,people i grew up with, were right knob ends... Not to say anybody who likes those tunes are knob ends, but the people i knew were. I always associate the songs with those people.
Even worse they sang ( i use that term loosely ) along to those tunes too, one of my bugbears.
Kraken, Saturn, Emotion, Flying V Rocket, Planets.
remember having to dance with an ugly bint right through Hotel California. all 6 and a half mins. poor disco lighting, honest

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
