Queen II

Reseña

"Queen II" fue el primer éxito de la banda británica liderada por Freddie Mercury. El éxito de este segundo álbum propició que su álbum debut, "Queen", fuera revisado por el público y entrara igualmente en las listas británicas.

Grabado en los londinenses Trident Studios en agosto de 1973, el álbum se publicó el 8 de marzo de 1974 en Reino Unido y el 9 de abril del mismo año en Estados Unidos. La imagen de la portada es obra del popular fotógrafo británico Mick Rock, y fue reutilizada por la banda en posteriores ocasiones, como el vídeo de "I Want to Break free".

"Queen II" resultó un álbum con dos ambientes bien diferenciados, denominados popularmente como el lado blanco y el lado negro. El lado negro, con temas oscuros y más pesados, fue compuesto en su mayor parte por Freddie Mercury, con arreglos de piano y voces del propio Mercury.

Por otra parte, el lado blanco incluye temas más variados, con composiciones de Bryan May y Roger Taylor. 

El tema que catapultó a la fama a Queen fue el titulado "Seven Seas Of Rhye", con el que la banda logró entrar en el top ten de las listas británicas, con un sonido arrollador en sus primeros veinte segundos, para dar paso posteriormente a las voces.

    letra de Father to Son

    A word in your ear
    From father to son
    Hear the word that I say
    I fought with you
    Fought on your side
    Long before you were born
    Joyful the sound
    The word goes around
    From father to son to son

    And the voice is so clear
    Time after time it keeps
    Calling you calling you on
    Don't destroy what you see
    Your country to be
    Just keep building on the ground
    That's been won
    Kings will be crowned
    The word goes around
    From father to son to son

    Won't you hear us sing
    Our family song?
    Now we hand it on
    But I've heard it all before
    Take this letter that I give you
    Take it sonny hold it high
    You won't understand a word that's in it
    But you'll write it all again before you die

    A word in your ear
    From father to son
    Funny you don't hear
    A single word that I say
    But my letter to you
    Will stay by your side
    Thru' the years
    Till the loneliness is gone

    Sing if you will
    But the air you breathe
    I live to give you
    Father to son father to son
    Father to son father to son
    Joyful the sound
    Word goes around
    Father to son to son
    Kings will be crowned
    Earth goes around
    Father to son to son

    Joyful the sound
    Word goes around
    Father to son to son
    Kings will be crowned
    Earth goes around
    Father to son to son

    letra de White Queen (As It Began)

    So sad her eyes smiling dark eyes
    So sad her eyes as it began
    On such a breathless night as this
    Upon my brow the lightest kiss
    I walked alone
    And all around the air did say
    My lady soon will stir this way
    In sorrow known
    The white queen walks
    And the night grows pale
    Stars of lovingness in her hair
    Heeding unheard pleading one word
    So sad my eyes she cannot see
    How did thee fare what have thee seen
    The mother of the willow green
    I call her name
    And 'neath her window have I stayed
    I loved the footsteps that she made
    And when she came
    White queen how my heart did ache
    And dry my lips no word would make
    So still I wait
    My goddess hear my darkest fear
    I speak too late
    It's for evermore that I wait
    Dear friend goodbye
    No tears in my eyes
    So sad it ends as it began

    letra de Some Day One Day

    You never heard my song before
    The music was too loud
    But now I think you hear me well
    For now we both know how
    No star can light our way
    In this cloud of dark and fear
    But some day, one day

    Funny how the pages turn
    And hold us in between
    A misty castle waits for you
    And you shall be a queen
    Today the cloud it hangs
    Over us and all is grey
    But some day, one day

    When I was you and you were me
    And we were very young
    Together took us nearly there
    The rest may not be sung
    So still the cloud it hangs
    Over us and we're alone
    But some day, one day

    We'll come home

    letra de The Loser in the End

    Mama's gotta problem
    She don't know what to say
    Her little baby boy just left home today
    She's got to be the loser in the end
    She's got to be the loser in the end
    Misuse her and you'll lose her as a friend
    She's ma on whom you can always depend

    She washed and fed, and clothed and cared
    For nearly twenty years
    And all she gets is 'goodbye ma'
    And the nightimes for her tears
    She's got to be the loser in the end
    She's got to be the loser in the end
    Misuse her and you'll lose her as a friend
    She's ma on whom you can always depend

    So listen mothers everywhere
    To just one mother's son
    You'll get forgotten on the way
    If you don't let them have their fun
    Forget regrets, and just remember
    It's so long since you were young

    You're bound to be the loser in the end
    You're bound to be the loser in the end
    They'll choose their new shoes that's not far to bend
    You're ma on whom they can always depend

    letra de Ogre Battle

    Now once upon a time
    An old man told me a fable
    When the piper is gone
    And the soup is cold upon the table
    And if the black crow flies
    Find a new destination
    That is the sign

    Come tonight
    Come to the ogre site
    Come to ogre battle fight

    He gives a great big cry
    And he can swallow up the ocean
    With mighty tongue he catches flies
    And the palm of his hand incredible size
    One great big eye
    Has to focus in your direction
    Now the battle is on
    Yeah yeah yeah

    Come tonight
    Come to the ogre site
    Come to ogre battle fight

    Ah ah ah ah ah
    The ogre men are still inside
    The two way mirror mountain
    You gotta keep down
    Right out of sight
    You can't see in but they can see out
    Keep a look out
    The ogre men are coming out
    From the two way mirror mountain
    They're running up behind
    And they're coming all about
    Can't go east 'cause you gotta go south

    Ogre men are going home
    The great big fight is over
    Bugle blow, let trumpet cry

    Ogre battle lives for ever more
    Oh oh oh
    You can come along
    You can come along
    Come to ogre battle

    letra de The Fairy Feller´s Master-Stroke

    He's a fairy feller
    The fairy folk have gathered round the new moon shine
    To see the feller crack a nut at nights noon time
    To swing his ace he swears, as it climbs he dares
    To deliver
    The master-stroke!

    Ploughman, Waggoner Will, and types
    Politician with senatorial pope, he's a dilly-dally-o
    Pedagogue squinting, wears a frown
    And a satyr peers under lady's gown, dirty fellow
    What a dirty laddio
    Tatterdemalion and a junketer
    There's a thief and a dragonfly trumpeter, he's my hero
    Fairy dandy tickling the fancy of his lady friend
    The nymph in yellow 'can we see the master-stroke'
    What a quaere fellow

    Soldier, sailor, tinker, tailor, ploughboy
    Waiting to hear the sound
    And the arch-magician presides
    He is the leader
    Oberon and titania watched by a harridan
    Mab is the queen and there's a good apothecary-man
    Come to say hello
    Fairy dandy tickling the fancy of his lady friend
    The nymph in yellow
    What a quaere fellow
    The ostler stares with hands on his knees
    Come on, mr. Feller, crack it open if you please

    letra de Nevermore

    There's no living in my life anymore
    The seas have gone dry
    And the rain's stopped falling
    Please don't you cry any more
    Can't you see
    Listen to the breeze
    Whisper to me please
    Don't send me to the path of nevermore

    Even the valley's below
    Where the rays of the sun
    Were so warm and tender
    Now haven't anything to grow
    Can't you see?
    Why did you have to leave me? (nevermore)
    Why did you deceive me? (nevermore)
    You sent me to the path of nevermore
    When you say you didn't love me anymore
    Ah ah nevermore nevermore

    letra de The March of the Black Queen

    Do you mean it
    Do you mean it
    Do you mean it
    Why don't you mean it
    Why do I follow you and where do you go

    Youve never seen nothing like it no never in your life
    Like going up to heaven and then coming back alive
    Let me tell you all about it -
    And the world will so allow it
    Ooh give me a little time to choose
    Water babies singing in a lily-pool delight
    Blue powder monkies praying in the dead of night

    Here comes the black queen, poking in the pile
    Fie-for the black queen, marching single file
    Take this, take that, bring them down to size

    Put them in the cellar with the naughty boys
    A little nigger sugar then a rub-a dub-a baby oil
    Black on, black on ever finger nail and toe
    Weve only begun - begun
    Make this make that, keep making all that noise
    Now I've got a belly-full
    You can be my sugar-baby, you can be my honey chile, yes

    A voice from behind me reminds me
    Spread out your wings you are an angel
    Remember to deliver with the speed of light
    A little bit of love and joy
    Everything you do bears a will and a why and a wherefore
    A little bit of love and joy
    In each and every soul lies a man
    And very soon hell deceive and discover
    But even till the end of his life, hell bring a little love

    I reign with my left hand, I rule with my right
    I'm lord of all darkness, I'm queen of the night
    I've got the power - now do the march of the black queen
    My life is in your hands, Ill for and Ill fie
    Ill be a bad boy - Ill be your bad boy
    Ill do the march of the black queen

    Walking true to style
    Shes vulgar buse and vile
    Fie-for the black queen tattos all her pies
    She boils and she bakes and she never dots her is

    Forget your singalongs and your lullabies
    Surrender to the city of the fireflies
    Dance with the devil in beat with the band
    To hell with all of you hand in hand
    But now its time to be gone - forever

    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
