CD ReviewsApproach with caution Queen fans Michael Allred | Niles, Michigan United States | 11/23/2000 (2 out of 5 stars) "Elaine Paige, famous stage star ("Evita", "Cats") was urged by her then (and possibly still) boyfriend Tim Rice (part of the legendary musical team with Andrew Lloyd Webber) to record an album entirely of Queen songs!Obviously she stayed close to her roots by not choosing any of their harder rock tracks and instead went with the lighter side.Her light and airy voice is well suited for the classic "Love of My Life" and "One Year of Love".Naturally, there were some mistakes. Her take on "A Kind of Magic" is the worst kind of lite-FM pop complete with saxophone. Ugh.The highlight is "Radio Ga Ga" in which she added actual bits from BBC radio giving it a true nostalgic feel (which was what the song is all about.)A fairly good album...if you like late 80's adult contemporary music."
