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

[edit] 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)

[edit] 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)

[edit] 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

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Queen Jazz.png

Image:Queen Jazz.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] 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)
