[edit] Small song articles

The pages ~~One Year of Love~~ and Gimme the Prize are extremely small and could still find a comfortable home on this page. Please discuss this and other similar small Queen song articles on my talk page. Dar-Ape 03:21, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

One Year of Love should not be merged into A Kind of Magic as this song was released as a single. (I have added an info box, categories etc.). - Candyfloss 10:14, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for expanding it. Dar-Ape 02:25, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Friends Will Be Friends

"'Friends Will Be Friends' was written by Deacon. The song is credited as a Mercury/Deacon song yet Mercury had very little input on the song, it was only of Deacons insistence that Mercury's name was credited. It is a rock ballad in the vain of 'We are the Champions' and was written for audience participation."

Any source for this?

Brian May talks about this song on his soapbox (http://www.brianmay.com/brian/brianssb/brianssb.html; 30 Jul 06) as if Freddie Mercury was the sole composer of it... :S

Anyone got a clue who really wrote it?
