Review by Eric Lambrech

Queen’s CD Single Box – A Treasure Trove of Rock Royalty Released in 1991 and exclusive to Japan, Queen’s CD Single Box is a collector's dream. With its vibrant mix of Pop and Rock genres, this box set dives deep into the band’s iconic catalog, blending Classic Rock and Pop Rock styles seamlessly. Released under EMI with liner notes penned by 落合隆, it’s more than just an album—it’s a celebration of Queen’s legacy. Now, let’s talk tracks. This box set is basically a buffet of hits and deep cuts, but two songs stand out for me personally: "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "I Want To Break Free." "Bohemian Rhapsody"—yeah, you’ve heard it a million times, but it still slaps. There’s something about the way Freddie Mercury’s voice soars through those operatic sections that feels larger than life. Every time I hear it, I’m reminded why Queen ruled the world. It’s not just a song; it’s an experience. You can’t help but air guitar during the guitar solo or belt out “Galileo!” like your life depends on it. Then there’s "I Want To Break Free." This one always gets me moving. The groove is infectious, and John Deacon’s bassline? Pure magic. Plus, who doesn’t love the cheeky video that goes with it? Sure, it caused some controversy back in the day, but isn’t that what makes Queen so unforgettable? They weren’t afraid to push boundaries—and they did it with style. The rest of the tracklist reads like a greatest hits compilation on steroids. From "We Are The Champions" to "Another One Bites The Dust," every song has its own charm. Whether you’re into their hard-rocking anthems or softer ballads, there’s no shortage of brilliance here. And props to the inclusion of lesser-known gems like "Tenement Funster" and "Spread Your Wings," which remind us how versatile Queen really was. What’s wild about this release is that it came out in Japan only. It’s almost like a secret handshake for die-hard fans. Liner notes by 落合隆 add a nice personal touch, giving listeners a glimpse into the thought process behind these selections. For collectors, it’s a must-have. For casual fans, it’s a crash course in why Queen remains untouchable decades later. Reflecting on this box set, it strikes me how timeless Queen’s music feels. These songs could’ve been written yesterday—or tomorrow. Honestly, if aliens ever invade Earth, we should just blast "We Will Rock You" at them. Either they’ll surrender, or they’ll start stomping their feet in rhythm. Either way, victory! So yeah, if you stumble across the CD Single Box, grab it. It’s a piece of rock history wrapped up in shiny plastic. And hey, maybe while listening, you’ll discover a new favorite track—or rediscover an old flame. That’s the beauty of Queen.
