Queen- News of the World (1977)
News of the World is the sixth studio album by British rock group Queen released on October 28, 1977. The album has been certified 4x Platinum in the United States, 3x Platinum in Canada, and 2x Platinum in the United Kingdom. The album charted at #4 on the UK Albums Chart and at #3 on the U.S. Billboard 200.
News of the World included three singles, one with a B-side: "We Are the Champions"/"We Will Rock You," "Spread Your Wings," and "It's Late." Other notable songs on the album include: "Sheer Heart Attack," "Spread Your Wings," "Fight from the Inside," and "Sleeping on the Sidewalk."
Notable of the album is that it is the second album to be fully produced by the band themselves, the first being 1975's release A Day at the Races. Also, the song "We Will Rock You" was intentionally written to be simple and anthemic by guitarist Brian May so that the band's live audience could be more directly involved in the show. The band attempted a more 'mainstream' rock sound for News of the World after some critics had called their previous release a "boring" album. Finally, the album was titled after a popular U.K. newspaper of the same.
