Roger Taylor Says THIS Queen Song Is The Hardest One To Play — What Is It?

Roger Taylor, despite being a longtime drummer, found it hard to play one particular song by Queen.

Among the UK-based bands, Queen became one of the most famous that also conquered the global music scene. Since its debut in 1970, the band continues to play in several events despite losing Freddie Mercury (who died in 1991) and John Deacon (who already retired).

Still, the two remaining members - Taylor and Brian May - still promote their songs under Queen's name, and the drummer chose the hardest song to play among the projects they accomplished.

Following the release of Rhapsody Over London Live Concert Film, the flick's special fan Q&A went viral as Taylor and May shared secrets about the bands. For the drummer, he also talked about the hardest Queen song to play on the drums.

"Ooo I would say, possibly, I'm in Love with My Car, because it's in sort of three-time and it's kind of not fast and it's difficult to sing and keep the three, four beat going. It's also very high to sing! I kind of dread that moment every night!" he said.

Roger composed the song "I'm In Love With My Car" for Queen's 1975 album, "A Night at the Opera." He sings and drums to it during Queen and Adam Lambert's Rhapsody tour set.

What Are Roger Taylor, Brian May's Favorite Queen Songs?

In the same film, the two opened up about their favorite songs Queen ever performed.

Per May, there is one song that "stuck in his head" for good.

"Generally [We Are The] Champions because it's the last one. I do find it going round in my head," he said, adding "I think for musicians, especially if you're doing it, your head is always filled with something. There's always something going around in your head isn't there?"

The interview came out after the duo made history as Queen.

Weeks ago, the Official Charts Company announced that the band's 1981 album, "Queen Greatest Hits" surpassed 7 million sales in the UK, becoming the first band to accomplish the feat.

It became the latest honor the album scored as it was already certified Platinum 23 times. To be exact, "Queen Greatest Hits" scored over 1.26 billion total UK streams as of press time.

Its track, "Bohemian Rhapsody," became the most-streamed track with over 240 million UK streams and counting.
