Writer's Block: Killer Queen

Good question. It was only after watching the Queen: Days of Our Lives documentary at my sister's suggestion that I realized I know a LOT of their songs despite never really following them. So many of their singles became ubiquitous that Queen is unavoidable, I suspect everyone has a favorite whether they're a fan or not.

I have a particular affection for "We Are the Champions" because I associate it with "A Knight's Tale", but only in the original - Robbie Williams IS NO FREDDIE MERCURY, so I'm not going to post the video :P But, I will post the Knight's Tale intro for knights who rock you:

Thank you! I loved this movie for it's soundtrack, the songs fit the scenes perfectly. It was also a great movie to introduce young people to Ren Faires and just what jousting meant.

I know! Don't you just want to run off to faire right after watching it??

Several of my medievalist friends LOVE this movie because it uses modern trappings to explain just how big a deal jousts were in the middle ages - like having the Superbowl come to town!
