There will most certainly be quite a few Queen entries on this list. "In the lap of the gods (revisited) is one of my favorites. Off of one my favorite Queen albums, Sheer Heart Attack. Sheer Heart Attack was their last album before the band turned to more "theatre rock", which would become their bread and butter, and probably there last straight rock in roll album till "It's a kind of Magic". I always thought the original "In the lap of the gods" sounded like it could have been an outtake from Brian Wilson's "Pet Sounds", with that being said, "Revisited", could have easily been an outtake from "Sgt. Pepper". It is the first of many "anthem-like" songs for Queen. I love how it really doesn't seem to have a beginning or end, it just kind of picks up and leaves off, like if you had placed in the middle of "A day in the life" it would have fit perfectly.
