Kind of Magic album for sale Product Description

Kind of Magic album for sale by Queen was released Sep 13, 2011 on the Universal Distribution label. Some songs on this album appear in different form in the film HIGHLANDER. A KIND OF MAGIC primarily functioned as a musical backdrop for the movie HIGHLANDER, but unlike Queen's other motion picture soundtrack (1980's FLASH GORDON), the album doesn't contain a single instrumental--they're all fully realized songs. Although it's not quite on par with their time-honored offerings from the '70s and didn't chart well in the States, A KIND OF MAGIC still contains more than a few classic Queen tracks. Kind of Magic CD music contains a single disc. ...See Full Description

Excellent Album
This is a great Queen album. Some songs were used on the Highlander movie soundtrack. Great tracks throughout "Princes of the Universe", "One Year of Love", "Who Wants to Live Forever?", "A Kind of Magic" are all great tracks. The album is good from start to finish however. Much better than their previous 80's albums.

BORING
Kind of Magic buy CD music This CD is Queen�s all time worst offering. It contains two of the worst songs they ever wrote �Pain is so close to pleasure� and �One year of Love� The entire CD sounds flat, sterile and uninspired. Every song is drenched in cold sounding synthesizers. They couldn�t make up their minds whether this was going to be a soundtrack or not. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Personal Favorite
One of my all time favorite Queen albums. This one along with The Miracle and Innuendo show Queen still at the top of their game. I enjoy the EMI version as it has different bonus tracks than the Hollywood version and is a lot harder to find. Thanks CD Universe.

Wow.
My sister bought this CD half a year ago and showed me it. It's the only music I've listened to since then. This is by far my favorite album of all time.
