Do you think words can be powerful? What about Queen's lyrics? What would you say it is the most powerful song? The stuff I have on my site concerning lyrics is endless - they are everywhere. I think what's important is what they mean to you. Bohemian Rhapsody, for example, which had only just been a hit for the first time, started to take on a different meaning for me during my mum's illness and then passing. I always avoid analysing Queen lyrics and just place them in a context or next to a picture, without commentary. I've also made my own poems containing some of the words or ideas from the songs. One thing that interests me though is the fact that very little has been said about Queen songs which carry a social message - I have already dealt with 'Say It's Not True' in the context of the struggle against Aids (Back Chat page) but am currently digging around for any comments Brian might have made concerning 'White Man' and 'Put Out The Fire'. Roger's solo lyrics contain a lot of social messages and I also have a page devoted to them. |
