Re: Uncut (UK) - Deep dive into Queen’s 30 greatest songs (2022)

Sounds a bit like it’s 30 songs selected by Brian May, Roger Taylor and Adam Lambert. If that’s the case then the list is not eligible.

Re: Huffpost (US) - The Best Albums Of The Decade (2011)

Ok, but then I think this list is questionable.
