This one does absolutely tap into the very common soundtrack style of that era. Every action movie had a bass/electro bass and power beat backing. At the time it was seen as new, groundbreaking (synths) and mainly a reaction to 50 years of orchestral soundtracks. I am fairly certain this was not lost on Roger Taylor when he wrote it and there is a hint of parody and tongue in cheek p-taking, while actually making a half decent song of it.
It’s a brilliant track that really shows that Queen could compose anything. Also, the subject matter is based around the Highlander film but it also applies to real life (don’t lose your head, keep your cool and don’t lead a self destructive lifestyle.) It’s only considered a ‘filler’ song if you’re not of the understanding of the tracks true meaning.
Because it's an average quality Queen track : they have done much better. But Mercury was too lazy in the 80's to compose great music that's why Roger had chances to publish his... strange tracks. I love him as a singer and drumer but his song aren't my cup of tea 😉
jdspreest From Roger, i like tenement funster, modern times rnr, prime jive, fight from the inside, drowse, radio gaga and i'm in love with my car. I had long fights with other Queen fans about the fact i CAN'T love very Queen songs. It's my favorite band of all times but i have to be honest with my opinions. A lot of people try to love something just to proove they are better fans.
+romu7999 I definitely think Roger wrote the weakest songs out of the four. They're just so hard to like. Sure, Radio Gaga was great, but that's only one song. The rest had multiple memorable hits. Sorry Roger.
Don't lose your head Don't lose your head Hear what I say Don't lose your way... Remember, love's stronger Remember love walks tall Don't lose your heart No, don't lose your heart Hear what I say, yeah Don't lose your way Don't lose your way Remember, love's stronger Remember love walks through walls Don't lose your head No, don't lose your head Hear what I say, Don't lose your way, Remember, love's stronger Remember, love conquers all
Der beste Lückenfüller aller Zeiten! Ich finde man hört, wie diese Genies Spass daran hatten, mal ganz einfache Musik zu machen, die durch ihre Power und Seele genauso wunderbar ist, wie ihre großen komplexen Werke ❤
Love this album to the fullest. Not only because it came out on one of my favorite tv series HIGHLANDER but it also reminds me of fall & winter in my junior high teen years IN THE 90S. Last but not least love Freddie's vocals on this album truly missed for sure.
"Patience, Highlander. You have done well, but it'll take time. You are generations being born and dying. You are at one with all living things. Each man's thoughts and dreams are yours to know. You have power beyond imagination. Use it well, my friend. Don't lose your head." - Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez
Just finished watching Highlander ( again) . Freddie we still miss you . One of truly greatest and most powerful singers of all time . The brightest Star burns the shortest time ♥️
Freddie Is Singing This Whole Song! That's Why He is A Legend!!! The One And Only!!! Freddie Mercury You Keep Resting Peacefull...We Miss You!!! 👑 GOD BLESS!!!
Una de las cosas que me hacen disfrutar Highlander es toda la banda sonora impresionantemente y maravillosamente confeccionada por una de las mejores bandas musicales de toda la historia
Gimme the Prize, Princes of the Universe, and... this, maybe? Queen I had Great King Rat, Liar, Modern Times Rock 'N Roll, Son and Daughter and Doing All Right...
Stone Cold Crazy anyone? Basically Thrash Metal about ten years early, and was actually written in part years earlier! The absolute most metal, though not Queen but Brian May solo is Cyborg. Pure Metal.
I can't hear this without picturing an experienced immortal repeatedly kicking their student's ass in a training montage but also teaching them what really matters in life too.
This is the first Queen album I bought; it was in 1998 when CD's still dominated the music market. Anyway, I remember reading about Joan Armatrading in the liner notes. In fact, she and David Bowie are among the few musicians Queen ever collaborated with. I suppose by being co-vocalists and not backup singers like the chorus on Bohemian Rhapsody or the stompers in we will roick you.
One of the things I loved about Highlander The Series was how they maintained a continuity with the original film by incorporating Queen's music into certain episodes. I remember a First Season episode including this song during one of Duncan's fights against another immortal.
I remember that episode. Against the immortal Felicia who pretended she was a newborn to kill her mentors, and who I now figured out was played by Joan Jett. I was so pumped hearing this play
Si la serie tenía una genial banda sonora, increíble. Me marco el cap de la muerte de Tessa 😢 Con la escena de Duncan abandonando la casa donde vivían, con todos sus recuerdos, con la canción de polvo en el viento, creo de la banda Kansas?. Mi corazón explotó!!! La grave y la ví mil veces!!!!😢
I am SO pleased they made a special Magic cartoon for Adam. The guy in the film is called Christopher Lambert. When I first played with a logo for my art studio in the 2000's I used the lettering from "A Kind of Magic", but I had no idea the film was about 'Holy Blood Holy Grail' in short. I first saw this movie on VHS, but not the whole thing, because only the fight scene at the end was recorded in front of another movie, to make the most of the tape's length (LOL those days!). So I spent years trying to figure out what that thing was.
Joan Armatrading --> "Don't Lose Your Head" was composed by Taylor and features singer Joan Armatrading in a vocal cameo. --> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Kind_of_Magic
I'm a Queen fan of their harder and edgier music as opposed to their operatic music, which is lost on me. For example, I can't listen to 10 seconds of Bohemian Rhapsody, but love Fight From the Inside or Dragon Attack. This is a great tune as well. Roger wrote some good rock tunes.
😍🤣❤ it's so ironic this part. Roger wrote this part specially to John Deacon, because John drove drunk and the police to get to breathalised. But Roger drove many times drunk too. 🤦♀️😬
Possibly the most ironic but naturally perfect DRINK/DRIVE campaign song anybody could ever hear except for one small thing...... ....the moment you play it inside a great sound system set-up in any car, this amazing song just seems to have a single effect... It makes you want to massively put that PEDAL TO METAL...BIGTIME!!!!!!
I always loose my head for a while when love and passion hits me but I learned my lesson the hard way, never doing that misstake ever again. Love can come slowly.

the vocals on this song, pure brilliance.
..Nessun' altro!!!👑❤
Idk about you but Roger's songs have a strong energy :')
Freddie Mercury was the first Immortal
Look at him now
@@mexicanhero1999 thats kinda hard
2q a s@s
@@mexicanhero1999 lol
I believe it
Don't Lose Your Head is the best song of the album. strong harmonization, strong synths, intelligent lyrics, dreamy vocals.
@Evan Bradham then why are you listening to it?
@Evan Bradham it's a great song, better than the whole Queen I and II albums
Hombre ruso de 40 años lmao you serious or I'm missing a joke
@@JourneyLiveCompilations yeah, it's a joke but i really like don't lose your head
Imo is not the best song of the album, but is still great! Very Underrated!
Don't lose your heart! incredible voice! Queen forever!
It screams "80's" from the beggining 'til the end.

Laura Angélica Melo i love queen “ dont lose your head” i love the show with Adrian paul i could watch this show all day. Its so awesome
very 80's synth and very 80's kinda phil collins gated reverb drum sound
And it glorious, don't you think?
Soooo true, absolutely brilliant track 💜💜
Great song and drum sounds from Roger, Deacy’s driving bass, Freddie’s sublime vocals and superbly atmospheric outro solo from Bri….perfect! 👍
It’s a brilliant track that really shows that Queen could compose anything. Also, the subject matter is based around the Highlander film but it also applies to real life (don’t lose your head, keep your cool and don’t lead a self destructive lifestyle.) It’s only considered a ‘filler’ song if you’re not of the understanding of the tracks true meaning.
It's kurgon time😊
The whole album is made in double meaning like this .
The best Queen album for me ! 😊
I don't care what anyone says, this is one of their best. It has an awesome drive and energy.
Totally agree! fantastic song and voice!
Not one of the best but definitely underrated.
Even the tracks from Hot Space don’t dip below the Queen standard. This material certainly doesn’t.
I like Break Thru for similar reasons.
Linked with Highlander's movies
Why would somebody dislike this excellent song?
I reckon it was Janos Slynt
Because it's an average quality Queen track : they have done much better. But Mercury was too lazy in the 80's to compose great music that's why Roger had chances to publish his... strange tracks. I love him as a singer and drumer but his song aren't my cup of tea 😉
@romu, so I guess u think Radio Gaga sucks? Anything Queen made rocked
jdspreest From Roger, i like tenement funster, modern times rnr, prime jive, fight from the inside, drowse, radio gaga and i'm in love with my car.

Despite I'm a huge Queen fan, I was searching for Don't lose your head from Six: The musical. But this is pretty nice too.xd
There is also INXS song with the same title from some movie with John Travolta
Same
Omg me lol 🤣
Is better
I mean technically Anne was a queen
idk why but Rogers songs sound always sooo good and powerful... for me his songs are the best but everybody has their own taste
Meddows!!!, Long time whitout seeing ya
I lost my head with the wembley photo. Pure Freddie Mercury. The most powerful man in the world
Absolutly right👌😎🔥❤💪😇
A Kind of Magic was the first album I ever bought. I remember thinking this track was creepy and weird, but also loving it for its moody atmosphere.
One of the best queen songs. Unfortunately no single and never played live!
One of the songs that drove me crazy as a child. So ethereal. Don't lose your head!! 🤯
Hugely underrated song, Roger Taylor crushing it with the bonus of Joan Armatrading
Absolutely, a great song that has a typical Roger vibe and featuring the great Joan Armatrading.
Don't lose your head
Don't lose your head
Hear what I say
Don't lose your way...
Remember, love's stronger
Remember love walks tall
Don't lose your heart
No, don't lose your heart
Hear what I say, yeah
Don't lose your way
Don't lose your way
Remember, love's stronger
Remember love walks through walls
Don't lose your head
No, don't lose your head
Hear what I say,
Don't lose your way,
Remember, love's stronger
Remember, love conquers all
35 anos desta obra prima! 30 anos sem Fred Mercury... Saudades eternas. 😢🇧🇷
Loves this song so much through my headphones
Amazing sound
No existe una voz igual a la de Freddie, es sencillamente genial, 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑😍😍
No pierdas la cabeza 😉
Der beste Lückenfüller aller Zeiten! Ich finde man hört, wie diese Genies Spass daran hatten, mal ganz einfache Musik zu machen, die durch ihre Power und Seele genauso wunderbar ist, wie ihre großen komplexen Werke ❤

Freddie was amazing
Simply the best forever🥇🔥👨❤🏆 🙂🙃😉😇
He still is and always will be!!!

Incredible bass guitar rythm on the first strophes: 0:18-0:33; 1:14-1:31 and 2:26-2:42
Beautiful song from a beautiful album.
QUEEN es lo MÁXIMO!! Ninguno como ellos, son GENIALES!!
GOD SAVE THE QUEENS, QUEEN!!

Don't loose this incradibel band!
"Remember, love's stronger. Remember, love walks tall."
I really love this song!!
Hard rock from queen great also that Freddie mercury at Wembley photo is iconic as hell
It's not hard rock it's techno
Weird that some people dislike this song.. I really dont think its bad...
You're kidding right!!!...dislike it? What is there to dislike?
Absolutely bloody superrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrb!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This track has definitely grown on me.
It’s my least favorite song on the album as it reminds me of the Bianca story that happened last July and it puts a sick feeling in my stomach.
Freddie Is Singing This Whole Song! That's Why He is A Legend!!! The One And Only!!! Freddie Mercury You Keep Resting
Peacefull...We Miss You!!! 👑
GOD BLESS!!!
Sabrosura de Cancion.
Y esas mezclas de voces. Bateria con el bajo sin Olvidar el Red Special. Todo un 😋Manjar 👌
I lose my head whenever I listen to you Freddie... LOVE YOU forever
This song first comes to me in November 2019 - and hardly at a better moment as my father’s life comes to an end.
I appreciate that a lot, jobigman2008. Thank you.
Joan Armatrading also on Vocals.
Una de las cosas que me hacen disfrutar Highlander es toda la banda sonora impresionantemente y maravillosamente confeccionada por una de las mejores bandas musicales de toda la historia
most metal album queen ever had
Gimme the Prize, Princes of the Universe, and... this, maybe?
Queen I had Great King Rat, Liar, Modern Times Rock 'N Roll, Son and Daughter and Doing All Right...
Yeah, Queen's earlier albums had more heavier rock tracks, versus the 80s when they did more pop and diverse styles.
The first 2 or 3 albums were the heaviest.
Queen II is probably the heaviest album. And the best.
Stone Cold Crazy anyone?
Basically Thrash Metal about ten years early, and was actually written in part years earlier!
The absolute most metal, though not Queen but Brian May solo is Cyborg.
Pure Metal.
The King!
BESTEST... unforgettable -forever Freddie
Sencillamente, la mejor banda de la historia...
Por lejos. Pero este debe ser uno de los temas más flojos de Queen. La cagan con el puente que empieza en 1:58
Era da un'po' di anni che non l'ha riascoltavo... è ogni volta mi sorprende sempre... talmente erano dei fenomeni tanto i Queen!
one hell of a Queen song
this song makes me shiver
An immortal masterpiece.
"There can be only one" Highlander
I can't hear this without picturing an experienced immortal repeatedly kicking their student's ass in a training montage but also teaching them what really matters in life too.
roger taylors songs have a specific energy in them :) simply love those kind of songs...
DEDICATE TO ALL OF US....THESE HARD TIMES....!!!thank you
It's funny, because when the background voice says ''Don't lose your head'' I feel like I'm driving crazy.
is it Joan Amartrading who is singing this part ?
i think roger :0
Carine Battaglia You’re correct.
This is the first Queen album I bought; it was in 1998 when CD's still dominated the music market. Anyway, I remember reading about Joan Armatrading in the liner notes.

I suppose by being co-vocalists and not backup singers like the chorus on Bohemian Rhapsody or the stompers in we will roick you.
the man that does part reminds of blue man group
Sends a great message, don’t get angry, be nice, be kind….Love is better…

La grave y la ví mil veces!!!!😢
Esta canción la deberían de poner en los comerciales, porque tiene un gran mensaje
Tremendo Temon
De los mejores de Queen!!!

0:32 Why does that sound like a mixture of Roger Taylor's and Michael jaxon's voices?
Same

3:18 on 0.75 speed, am i the ONLY person here who thinks it sounds like the Stranger Things intro,
... or is it me
It's true
OMG TRUE
OMG YES AHAH
True dat.
Ok just lemme check cause I am a huge ST fan.
Edit: BAHAHAHA YES
1:59. I'm in love with my car 🤣❤️
😍🤣❤ it's so ironic this part. Roger wrote this part specially to John Deacon, because John drove drunk and the police to get to breathalised. But Roger drove many times drunk too. 🤦♀️😬
One of the best queen album ❤️ and Freddie voice ,omg amazing
This song gets better every time I listen to it
Oh, i didn't know Queen had a song about the French Revolution
🤣🤣🤣 Me neither
@can we get 0 subscribers with content you know it is a joke, right?
@can we get 0 subscribers with content The French Revolution
@can we get 0 subscribers with content didn't you ever heard about the French Revolution?
@can we get 0 subscribers with content what this has to anime? I don't even like anime
So strong this song!It has a great meaning to me. I like it so much.
Amo esta cancion!!!
That synthesizer
cfh that bass
i lose my head from this music
Sounds very 80s👌

Who is the "red voice"?
Roger
Joan Armatrading
Sounds like roger
Definitely Joan Armatrading
Roger for sure
I'm really digging those guitar licks.
I find it funny that on the album this song comes right after Kurgans Theme. Quite ironic.
This kind of music is from the future..cyberpunk, people call it now
Joan Armatrading on the backing vocals too
I like it more and more as I listen to it :-)
The Highlander💞😁
wow i can't believe i have not heard this...
Still might not be in my top 10 but wow!
Oh Yeah. ❤
I always loose my head for a while when love and passion hits me but I learned my lesson the hard way, never doing that misstake ever again. Love can come slowly.
1:59 LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS
I remember hearing this song on the Highlander series episode with Joan Jett lol she was kind of a cool villain
that is what brought me here!
That was actually the first time I ever heard this song was on that episode of Highlander: the series. Glad I wasn't the only one.
@@NoesisGlobalTV Same thing with me.
Joan Jett was in the Highlander tv show and she played an immortal??? When did that happen???
@@NoesisGlobalTV Highlander the original movie brought me here.
"You ever play Chicken? HEEEEEEERE WE GOOOOOOOOOOOOO😆😆😆😆😆"
😉
GREAT 👍 voice!!
Great song. Backing vocals by Joan Armatrading
Todas as musicas desse álbum são demais , Freddie Mercury inigualável.
Todos da banda são inigualáveis
Hope Freddie is safe xx
If someone is losing their head here ,it's definitely not me .I think someone else has lost their head and not only .🙃
Когда плохое настроение, слушаю эту песню - помогает! 😊😂
This song is underrated
Is no Love if you don t lose your head.love is no contoll❤❤❤Love is love 🌈❤🌹
