What I’m going to share today is about the best of Queen’s songs in movies. This will be my second article regarding my favorite band of all time. This is my way of “evangelizing” people who might not be familiar with Queen but know their songs so that they may know more about the group .
This week marks the 65th birthday of one of the most prolific and dynamic singer/songwriter of the twentieth century: Freddie Mercury, the man behind Queen. And as we all know, Google joined in this commemoration by featuring Mercury in its homepage doodle.
With this, InfoHiway is presenting a list of Queen’s songs in movies. (Click on the movie title to know more about it)
