Honestly, they both sound like Queen tracks.

Not bad

Why Am I The One? sounds like Queen meets Elton to me. I seriously cannot get enough of this album right now.

Yeah I can hear Elton in there too.

Agree with the Elton John references. To me it doesn't sound like Queen, at least not the "Why am I the one?".

Feels like mid-70's Elton John, "Tiny Dance" and that vibe.

Liked, gonna get the album tonight. There's a band I like that made me link them, Crash Kings. Do you guys know them?

I hear "Friends Will Be Friends", "The Miracle", and "In My Defense" all in that.

Agree with Friends Will Be Friends and In My Defense..

It's always great to get some new perspectives and references over something!

In your defense, I think Freddie doing "Friends Will Be Friends" on Magic, was kind of his Elton-moment. Even there it sounds like an Elton/Bernie-song, despite it being a Freddie 70's-style piano ballad (one of his last).

I've heard it on the radio quite a bit.  Good tune.
