Talk:Jazz (Queen album)

The article mentions that the poster of the bicycle race was not available in the U.S. However, I purchased this back when it came out, and it had the poster. This was in Ohio. So I know this statement isn't true. I did not mail order this album, but bought it from a local music store (probably Peaches) - Tom

More inappropriate John Deacon comparisons

I request that the line about In Only Seven Days being a "son" of Spread Your Wings be removed. On the discussion for Queen's News Of The World album, I mentioned that Misfire and Who Needs You are distinctive songs. Ditto here. Someone assumes that all John Deacon's songs sound the same, but I consider that insulting to Deacon's artistry. 65.248.164.214 (talk) 17:12, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Genre

Added pop rock. Face it: It's still a whole lot of pop on this album.--Gustav Lindwall 20:08, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Fat Bottomed Girls

How exactly do Mercury and May share lead vocals? To me it sounds like Freddie (of course with harmonies of Roger and Brian on the refrain) - BK

Mustapha

Mustapha utilizes more of the Farsi (Persian) language rather than Arabic for its 'nonsense'. I've seen this documented before, but the only credit I can give for this is the fact that I know Farsi speakers who understand a bit of what he's singing--Drowse (talk) 00:10, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

This entry needs to be clarified. Are the lyrics actual language or improvised? The entry, as it stands, seems to say both... Elcalen (talk) 11:42, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Fun It

"Taylor used a Syndrum pad and played most of the instruments." Does this include the guitar riff? 'Cause that's such a huge part of the track it may be worth mentioning. Elcalen (talk) 21:17, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Dead on Time

I'm not sure if Dead on Time is one of the "few" metal songs in their catalogue. There are certainly at least a dozen heavier (or at least equally heavy) songs in their catalogue: Keep Yourself Alive, Great King Rat, Liar, Modern Times Rock and Roll, Son and Daughter, Ogre Battle, Stone Cold Crazy, Death on Two Legs, Sweet Lady, Tie Your Mother Down, I Want It All, Headlong, Hitman, etc. — Deckiller 09:17, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

About "Let Me Entertain You"...

... when Freddie sings "I'll pull you and I'll pill you/ I'll Cruella DeVil you", what exactly does he mean by "I'll Cruella Devil you"? That he'll skin us and use us for fur or something? I'm confused. 24.189.90.68 (talk) 04:08, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

Reviews

Do we really need the George Starostin review ? I mean, there are plenty of other reviews by professional reviewers whose reviews are actually published by reputable magazines and websites. On top of that, his reviews were written with the benefit of hindsight, which makes them far less interesting, because they don't exemplify the critical response at the time the record was released. Just because his reviews are long-winded and often disagree with popular opinion doesn't make them any more interesting than those of the next person with a website. Also, his scoring system goes up to 15, so showing the score here as "9 stars out of 10" is misleading. 84.198.246.199 (talk) 16:43, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
