Nevertheless, I took the four singles box sets and compiled them into one playlist, tagging each track with artwork. After doing a little research, I found that their box sets had some omissions and inaccuracies. I added in the missing singles and I still wasn't satisfied with the results.
I considered whether to expand it to solo singles and also expand it to today. The solo singles made it, but the collection ended it where it should: when John Deacon finally threw in the towel and also the last of Freddie Mercury's singles were issued.
So in this set you'll find every Queen single and EP through the '90s. As well, all solo singles/EPs are included. Very few guest appearances are included because it wasn't really the work of Queen or of its members. All of these are correct single versions. A few were very hard to find. Each track is tagged with original art, both "A" and "B". Every track is @320 and many were freshly converted from FLAC files

Thank you m(__)m
Great and thanks!
Whew; this is pretty extensive... and you've done some thorough work for a group you're not deeply fond of. So thanks, Frank, for this latest collection of yours!
Frank, I don't know how you do such great work in such little time. Fantastic stuff. Thank you.
Excellent! In the US back in 1974 it wasn't always popular to voice your fanaticism for Queen. Like being a fan of Prog Rock, there was a large portion of my high school that looked down upon us for not exactly worshiping at the temples of Led Zeppelin or The Stones. And as a British band, Queen weren't the easiest to find articles written about (my life would have been so much different if I had had NME or Melody Maker available).
Wow, how things have changed in just the past couple of years. Has there ever been an artist/band whose popularity was so much larger 40 years after their peak than Queen? Maybe Robert Johnson. But I've got grandchildren insisting on pulling out my LP copy of 'Queen II' because listening to side 2 of that album is just about the greatest experience they've ever had with headphones on. And that damn release is nearly half a century old!
Thanks once again, Frank...looking forward to this big-time!
You do it time after time. Another great collection.
What a massive work.
Many thanks, Frank.
Fantastic work once again, Jay
Thank you so much. great work!
Excellent work, as usual. Thanks so much!
Wow, that's a lot of listening ahead of me. Thanks for all your effort.
Very appreciated. This will make the lockdown that much more tolerable

Awesome! Thank you for all the hard work on this collection.
Excellent music, many thanks...
this is great thank you - Aussie
Excellent many thanks for your efforts!
Ever since the Bowie 52 Years collection, I was hoping that Queen would get the same treatment, so many, many thanks for this.
If you take requests (!) I think a Pink Floyd singles collection would work well - for sure, only a small UK singles discography, but some fascinating overseas singles, including some unique edits. Also would be interesting to see singles collections for other artists who are more usually associated with albums, such as Neil Young.
Thanks again!
Great work !!!
Just noticed Track 147 missing, or is it a typo mistake?
Thank you very much.
This looks amazing - thank you for the compilation!!
@Anon, yes, 147 is a numbering error. I even double-checked it because my friend Lupine Assassin is usually quick to point these out to me.
Cheers Frank...nice comp.
Is my eyesight failing me, or did you miss Roger Taylor's "I Wanna Testify" 45?
furball, it is tracks 31 and 32 on CD1
Oh! So it is! My apologies, BF! :D
I actually AM a gigantic fan of this band, for several decades, for many good reasons. You've done a wonderful job with this- I thank you!
great great work-thx thx
is it possible i mist 1967 ?
all the best & thx again
jp roosen
that's just great-only asking & you gave it--just great
greetings from Belgium ,Limburg
jp roosenj
thanks for share this informative article.

Well done, especially if you're not among the monster fans of Queen. A quick look with my blurry eyes makes me think that you may have overlooked four tracks from Queen Forever Deluxe Edition which may have qualified as single releases somewhere in the cosmos. Let Me In Your Heart Again, Love Kills (The Ballad), There Must Be More To Life Than This (with Michael Jackson) (William Orbit Mix), and Friends Will Be Friends.
Thank you for the effort, your time was not wasted in the least.
