Queen - News of The World

Together, Brian May’s “We Will Rock You” and Freddie Mercury’s “We Are the Champions” became Queen’s reigning anthems that drove the sales of their blockbuster sixth studio album, News of the World, released October 28, 1977. As an album, it was a sonic departure from their previous work, with its generally louder, but sparser and/or down-to-earth musical arrangements, more firmly rooted in the rock genre overall.
