6. We Will Rock You - News Of The World
How does one talk about We Will Rock You without trotting out everything that's already been said about it?
Conceived by May as a way to get fans more involved in the band's live shows, this largely a capella anthem has one of the most famous choruses in music history, as well as some verses about poor men and old men that nobody really cares about.
If that wasn't enough, then the guitar solo kicks ass too! Brian might have only been needed for 30 seconds, but he made every single one of them count.
The song is basic as hell and almost sickening in how much it panders to the crowd, but when something has established this much of a legacy through just a few stomps and claps, it's impossible to deny its greatness.
