THE REVIEW

This album, more precisely the 13th by Queen, is called 'The Miracle' just like what they've managed to achieve by creating these songs. There are a total of 13 tracks, but the most beautiful are definitely "The Miracle," "I Want It All," "The Invisible Man" and, speaking personally, "Scandal" is also beautiful.

This album was created in 1989, two years before another great album and unfortunately the last before Freddie's death. Speaking of the songs, one that struck me a lot was "I Want It All", a song full of grit that Freddie sings beautifully with a great riff by Brian May that would intimidate even the best guitarists in this universe. Then there's also 'The Miracle', a song that lasts 5.02 minutes and is, in my opinion, one of the best by Queen, without taking anything away from other greats like (Innuendo, Bohemian Rhapsody, Radio Ga Ga). In the song "Was It All Worth It", which literally translated from English means "was it all worth it?", Freddie wonders if living this life was worth it since we all must die anyway, but fortunately, Freddie tells us that for him, it was worth it.

The lyrics of all the songs on "The Miracle" are very beautiful, and the sounds are varied; one could say that it is almost the best album by Queen. As I have already said, "The Miracle" is a true miracle of Queen. And Freddie Krueger sings really beautifully.

 The Miracle by Queen belongs to this last category... a null work, lifeless, thus devoid of any spurs for an interesting discussion.

 If one owns all the previous albums, this one can be skipped, as it is nothing more than a sort of collage of things already heard and repeated here by the four for the umpteenth time.


By AR (Anonima Recensori)

 "The Miracle is not a useless album; on the contrary, it is a miracle of the music industry."

 "In 6 minutes, 'Was It All Worth It' has everything like 'Bohemian Rhapsody' or 'Innuendo'—a perfect arrangement from hard rock to operetta."
