Reseña
"Queen II" puede considerarse el primer gran éxito de la banda británica liderada por Freddie Mercury. De hecho, la repercusión de este segundo álbum fue tan significativa que propició que su disco debut, "Queen", fuera redescubierto por el público y, consecuentemente, entrara también en las listas británicas.
En cuanto a su producción, el álbum fue grabado en los prestigiosos Trident Studios de Londres en agosto de 1973. Posteriormente, se publicó el 8 de marzo de 1974 en el Reino Unido, llegando el 9 de abril de ese mismo año a Estados Unidos.
Además, como dato de interés, la icónica imagen de la portada fue obra del popular fotógrafo británico Mick Rock. Curiosamente, esta misma imagen fue reutilizada por la banda en ocasiones posteriores, como por ejemplo en el célebre 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.

[X]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 - White Queen (As It Began)Ver letra 4:35
[X]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 - Some Day One DayVer letra 4:22
[X]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 - The Loser in the EndVer letra 4:06
[X]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 - Ogre BattleVer letra 4:08
[X]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 - The Fairy Feller´s Master-StrokeVer letra 2:40
[X]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 - NevermoreVer letra 1:18
[X]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 - The March of the Black QueenVer letra 6:32
[X]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 - Funny How Love IsVer letra 2:51

Funny how love is everywhere just look and see
Funny how love is anywhere youre bound to be
Funny how love is every song in every key
Funny how love is coming home in time for tea
Funny, funny, funny
Funny how love is the end of lies when the truth begins
Tomorrow comes tomorrow beings
Tomorrow brings love in the shape of things
Thats what love is, thats what love is
Funny how love is can break your heart so suddenly
Funny how love came tumbling down with adam and eve
Funny how love is running wild and feeling free
Funny how live is coming home in time for tea
Funny, funny, funny
From the earth below to the heavens above
Thats how far and funny is love
At any time, anywhere
If you gotta make love do it everywhere
Thats what love is, thats what love is
Funny how love is everywhere just look and see
Funny how love is anywhere youre bound to be
Funny how love is every song and every key
Funny how love is when you gotta hurry home

Funny, funny, funny how love is
Tomorrow comes, tomorrow brings
Tomorrow brings love in the shape of things
At any time, anywhere
If you gotta make love do it everywhere
Thats what love is, thats what love is - Seven Seas Of RhyeVer letra 2:48
[X]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
