Reseña
El primer álbum en la discografía de Queen se tituló, precisamente, "Queen", un debut lanzado en Reino Unido el 13 de julio de 1973 bajo el sello EMI Records y que llegó a Estados Unidos gracias a la discográfica Elektra Records. Grabado en los londinenses Trident Studios y en De Lane Lea Music Centre, contó con la producción del británico Roy Thomas Baker, quien trabajaría junto a la banda de Mercury a lo largo de cinco álbumes.
Este primer trabajo de estudio de la banda Queen se caracteriza por sus influencias del heavy metal y del rock progresivo, con letras inspiradas en temas diversos, como la religión o las tradiciones.
Cinco de los diez temas del álbum "Queen" fueron escritas por su vocalista y líder, Freddie Mercury. El guitarrista Brian May se encargó de dar forma a otros cuatro de los temas. El baterista Roger Taylor firmó el último de los temas incluidos en este debut de Queen.
Tras sus primeras actuaciones en directo en 1970 en locales y clubes de la capital británica, la banda se aventuró a grabar una demo con algunos de sus primeros temas. Aquella grabación incluía las canciones "Keep Yourself Alive", "The Night Comes Down", "Great King Rat", "Jesus" y "Liar".
Enviaron la cinta a varias discográficas y las respuestas fueron negativas, salvo una oferta que les hicieron desde el sello Charisma Records, que resultaba ser poco atractiva para las aspiraciones de la nueva banda.
Finalmente, un par de productores de Londres, John Anthony y Roy Thomas Baker, les vieron tocar en los estudios De Lane y la fuerza que percibieron en aquellas sesiones les convencieron de que aquellos chicos valían la pena.
Ambos recomendaron Queen a los dueños del sello Trident Studios, los hermanos Barry y Norman Sheffield, quienes ayudaron a la banda a realizar los arreglos de las canciones
Les permitieron utilizar el estudio de grabación en los momentos en que este estaba desocupado y pudieron utilizar todos los dispositivos presentes para realizar sus sesiones.
Queen regrabó sus primeros temas, con la colaboración del ingeniero de sonido Mike Stone, quien también colaboraría en los primeros cinco álbumes de la banda.
Terminadas las grabaciones, Trident esperó asociarse a una discográfica importante para lanzar el álbum a nivel nacional. Tras varios meses de infructuosa búsqueda, se arriesgaron a lanzarlo por su cuenta mediante un acuerdo con EMI.
El primer sencillo de Queen fue el titulado "Keep Yourself Alive", escrito por Brian May y con el que se abre el álbum. A pesar de no obtener ninguna repercusión, la revista Rolling Stone la posicionó en 2008 en el puesto 31 en su particular lista de las 100 mejores canciones de guitarra de todos los tiempos.
La canción "Liar", compuesta por Freddie Mercury, fue lanzada como sencillo el 14 de febrero de 1974 en una versión para Estados Unidos recortada de la original del álbum. Fue grabada con un órgano Hammond y fue uno de los temas principales en los primeros conciertos de la banda.

[X]letra de Keep Yourself Alive
I was told a million times
Of all the troubles in my way
How I had to keep on trying
Little better evry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then Id still be where I started
Bread and butter for a smile
Well I sold a million mirrors
In a shop in alley way
But I never saw my face
In any window any day
Well they say your folks are telling you
To be a super star
But I tell you just be satisfied
To stay right where you are
Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
Itll take you all your time and a money
Honey youll survive
Well Ive loved a million women
In a belladonic haze
And I ate a million dinners
Brought to me on silver trays
Give me evrything I need
To feed my body and my soul
And Ill grow a little bigger
Maybe that can be my goal
I was told a million times
Of all the people in my way
How I had to keep on trying
And get better evry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then Id still be where I started
Still be where I started
Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
Itll take you all your time and money honey
Youll survive
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
Itll take you all your time and money
To keep me satisfied
Do you think youre better evry day
No I just think Im two steps nearer to my grave
Keep yourself alive

You take your time and take your money
Keep yourself alive

To keep me satisfied

[X]letra de Doing All Right
Yesterday my life was in ruin
Now today I know what I'm doing
Got a feeling I should be doing all right
Doing all right
Where will I be this time tomorrow?
Jump in joy and sinking in sorrow
Anyway I should be doing all right
Doing all right
Should be waiting for the sun
Looking round to find the words to say
Should be waiting for the skies to clear
There ain't time in all the world
Should be waiting for the sun
And anyway I've got hide away
Yesterday my life was in ruin
Now today God knows what I'm doing
Anyway I should be doing all right
Doing all right
Doing all rightComposición: Brian May, Tim Staffell - Great King RatVer letra 5:43
[X]letra de Great King Rat
Great king rat died today
Born on the twenty first of may
Died syphilis forty four on his birthday
Every second word he swore
Yes he was the son of a whore
Always wanted by the law
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know, people?
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
Now what did I tell you
Would you like to see?
Now hear this
Where will I be tomorrow?
Will I beg or will I borrow?
I don't care I don't care anyway
Come on, come on the time is right
The man is evil and that is right
I told you, ah, yes, I told you
And that's no lie, oh, no, no, no
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Great king rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
Now what did I tell you
Would you like to see?
Show me
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know, people?
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
Now what did I tell you
Would you like to see?
Now listen all you people
Put out the good and keep the bad
Don't believe all you read in the bible
You sinners get in line
Saints you leave far behind
Very soon you're gonna be his disciple
Don't listen to what mama says
Not a word not a word mama says
Or else you'll find yourself being the rival
The great lord before he died
Knelt sinners by his side
And said you're going to realize tomorrow
No I'm not gonna tell you
What you already know
Cause time and time again
The old man said it all a long time ago
Come come on the time is right
This evil man will fight
I told you once before
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Just like I said before
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
The last time I tell you
Would you like to see?Composición: Freddie Mercury - LiarVer letra 6:25

[X]letra de Modern Times Rock 'N' Roll
Had to make do with a worn out rock and roll scene
The old bop is gettin' tired need a rest
Well you know what I mean
Fifty eight that was great
But it's over now and that's all
Somethin' harder's coming up
Gonna really knock a hole in the wall
Gonna hit ya grab you hard
Make you feel ten feet tall
Well, I hope that big new baby's gonna come along soon
You don't know it could happen any ol' rainy afternoon
With the temp'rature down
And the jukebox blowin' no fuse
And my musical life's feelin'
Like a long sunday school cruise
And you know there's one thing
Every single body could use
Yeah, listen to me, baby
Let me tell you what it's all about
Modern times rock and roll
Modern times rock and roll
Get your high heeled guitar boots and some groovy clothes
Get a hair piece on your chest
And a ring through your nose
Find a nice little man who says
He's gonna make you a real big star
Stars in your eyes ants in your pants
Think you should go far
Everybody in this bum sucking world's
Gonna know just who you are!
Look out
Modern times rock'n'rollComposición: Roger Taylor - Son And DaughterVer letra 3:23
[X]letra de Son And Daughter
I want you
Tried to be your son and daughter rolled into one
You said you'd equal any man for having your fun
Now didn't you feel surprise to find
The cap just didn't fit?
The world expects a man
To buckle down and to shovel shit
What'll you do for loving
When it's only just begun?
I want you
To be a woman
Tried to be a teacher and a fisher of men
An equal people preacher, will you lead us all the same?
Well I travelled around the world
To find a brand new word for day
Watching the time mustn't linger behind
Pardon me I have to get away
What'll you think of heaven
If it's back from where you came?
I want you
To be a woman
I want you to be a woman, yeahComposición: Brian May - JesusVer letra 3:44
[X]letra de Jesus
And then I saw him in the crowd
A lot of people had gathered round him
The beggers shouted and the lepers called him
The old man said nothing
He just stared about him
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down
Then came a man before his feet he fell
Unclean said the leper and rang his bell
Felt the palm of a hand touch his head
Go now go now you're a new man instead
All going down to see the lord Jesus
All going down to see the lord Jesus
All going down
It all began with the three wise men
Followed a star took them to bethelehem
And made it heard throughout the land
Born was the leader of man
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down to see the Lord jesus
All going dow
It all began with the three wise men
Followed a star took them to bethelehem
And made it heard throughout the land
Born was the leader of man
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going downComposición: Freddie Mercury - Seven Seas Of RhyeVer letra
[X]letra de Seven Seas Of Rhye
Fear me you lords and lady preachers
I descend upon your Earth from the skies
I command your very souls you unbelievers
Bring before me what is mine, the seven seas of rhye
Can you hear me you peers and privy counsellors
I stand before you naked to the eyes
I will destroy any man who dares abuse my trust
I swear that you'll be mine, the seven seas of rhye
Sister, I live and lie for you
Mister, do and I'll die
You are mine, I possess you, I belong to you forever
Storm the master-marathon, I'll fly through
By flash and thunder-fire I'll survive, I'll survive, I'll survive I'll survive, I'll survive
Then I'll defy the laws of nature and come out alive
Then I'll get you
Be gone with you, you shod and shady senators
Give out the good, leave out the bad evil cries
I challenge the mighty titan and his troubadours
And with a smile I'll take you to the seven seas of rhye
Oh I do like to be beside the seaside
Oh I do like to be beside the sea
Where the brass band plays, tidily, Om, pom, pom
Oh I do like to be beside the seaside
Oh I do like to be beside the sea
Where they crowd beside the sea
And besides themselves with glee beside the seaside - Mad The SwineVer letra
[X]letra de Mad The Swine
Been here before a long time ago
But this time I wear no sandals
Ages past I gave all you people
Food and water
Three feet tall so very small I'm no trouble
I bring thunder lightning sun and the rain
For all the people in the land
A message of love
I bring you from up above
All good children gather around
Come join your hands and sing along
They call me mad the swine
I guess I'm mad the swine
I've come to save you save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
I'll walk upon the water just as before
I'll help the meek and the mild and believers and the blind
And all the creatures great and small
Let me take you to the river without a ford
Oh and then one day you realise
You're all the same within his eyes
That's all I've come to say just like before
They call me mad the swine
I'm mad the swine
I've come to save you save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
Ooh
Before and now
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
Don't ever fail me
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
I've come to save you save you
Before and now
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
Hands and praise the lord
Praise the lord
Get down on my knees and praise the lord - My Fairy KingVer letra 4:12
[X]letra de My Fairy King
In the land where horses born with eagle wings
And honey bees have lost their stings
There's singing forever
Lions den with fallow deer
And rivers made from wine so clear
Flow on and on forever
Dragons fly like sparrows thru the air
And baby lambs where samson dares
To go on on on on on on
[first voice] [second voice]
My fairy king can see thingshe rules the air and turns the tides
That are not there for you and meohh yeah he guides the winds
My fairy king can do right and nothing wrong
Then came man to savage in the night
To run like thieves and to kill like knives
To take away the power from the magic hand
To bring about the ruin to the promised land
They turn the milk into sour
Like the blue in the blood of my veins
Why can't you see it
Fire burnin in hell with the cry of screaming pain
Son of heaven set me free and let me go
Sea turn dry no salt from sand
Teeth don't shine like pearls for the poor mans eyes
Someone someone has drained the colour from my wings
Broken my fairy circle ring
And shamed the king in all his pride
Changed the winds and wronged the tides
Mother mercury (mercury)
Look what they've done to me
I cannot run I cannot hideComposición: Freddie Mercury

By flash and thunder-fire I'll survive, I'll survive, I'll survive I'll survive, I'll survive
Then I'll defy the laws of nature and come out alive
Then I'll get you
Be gone with you, you shod and shady senators
Give out the good, leave out the bad evil cries
I challenge the mighty titan and his troubadours
And with a smile I'll take you to the seven seas of rhye
Oh I do like to be beside the seaside
Oh I do like to be beside the sea
Where the brass band plays, tidily, Om, pom, pom
Oh I do like to be beside the seaside
Oh I do like to be beside the sea
Where they crowd beside the sea
And besides themselves with glee beside the seaside

Been here before a long time agoletra de Mad The Swine
But this time I wear no sandals
Ages past I gave all you people
Food and water
Three feet tall so very small I'm no trouble
I bring thunder lightning sun and the rain
For all the people in the land
A message of love
I bring you from up above
All good children gather around
Come join your hands and sing along
They call me mad the swine
I guess I'm mad the swine
I've come to save you save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
I'll walk upon the water just as before
I'll help the meek and the mild and believers and the blind
And all the creatures great and small
Let me take you to the river without a ford
Oh and then one day you realise
You're all the same within his eyes
That's all I've come to say just like before
They call me mad the swine
I'm mad the swine
I've come to save you save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
Ooh
Before and now
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
Don't ever fail me
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
I've come to save you save you
Before and now
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
Hands and praise the lord
Praise the lord
Get down on my knees and praise the lord

In the land where horses born with eagle wingsletra de My Fairy King
And honey bees have lost their stings
There's singing forever
Lions den with fallow deer
And rivers made from wine so clear
Flow on and on forever
Dragons fly like sparrows thru the air
And baby lambs where samson dares
To go on on on on on on
[first voice] [second voice]
My fairy king can see thingshe rules the air and turns the tides
That are not there for you and meohh yeah he guides the winds
My fairy king can do right and nothing wrong
Then came man to savage in the night
To run like thieves and to kill like knives
To take away the power from the magic hand
To bring about the ruin to the promised land
They turn the milk into sour
Like the blue in the blood of my veins
Why can't you see it
Fire burnin in hell with the cry of screaming pain
Son of heaven set me free and let me go
Sea turn dry no salt from sand
Teeth don't shine like pearls for the poor mans eyes
Someone someone has drained the colour from my wings
Broken my fairy circle ring
And shamed the king in all his pride
Changed the winds and wronged the tides
Mother mercury (mercury)
Look what they've done to me
I cannot run I cannot hide
