does anyone else watch Rick Beato's videos? honestly, he's not always the most interesting guy to listen to but he does have excellent taste and encyclopedic knowledge. Usually he's talking guitars, but in this one he runs down the 20 most iconic vocal intros to songs. See if you agree with his #1 (I do). Only just got to watch this orioles70, enjoyed it. As a Queen fan I can’t argue with his choice.

I didn't watch the whole video, but skipped to the end to see which Queen song it was, hoping it might be Somebody to Love, my almost-favorite Queen song (after Under Pressure, of course, which is my absolute favorite song of all - even more than Telephone Line)... His choice of Bohemian Rhapsody was quite understandable, though.

I think everyone would have guessed the no1 song! but some great songs in there too IMHO such as Led Zepp, Beatles, Talking Heads, and The Eagles. Honourable mentions go out to Bowie and a certain Birmingham band.... 😉 Any ideas as to which two songs I am talking about?

Morning today’s forecast calls for blue skies, not sure about the David Bowie song....
