Upped a notch for general regard. AllMusic says this: "Not to be confused with 1981's Greatest Hits, 1992's Classic Queen, or 1992's reissue of 1981's Greatest Hits, 2004's Greatest Hits is a superb 20-track sampler of Queen's best, eclipsing all of the aforementioned packages." Taking a pass on Classic Queen, I have the 1992 issue, as noted above.
The 1981 issue has the same number of tracks as the 1992 issue (17), but "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Flash" instead of "Body Language" and "I Want to Break Free." I did play "Flash" three times, just to be thorough, although I've obviously heard it many times before. Definitely a good one to leave off. (I also obviously have "Bohemian Rhapsody.") Discogs actually has 2004 as being a reissue of 1981, which seems to be more accurate given the same 17 songs and cover image, and the 1992 issue as its own release. Anyway, the 2004 issue adds two live tracks and "I'm in Love with My Car" to get to 20. I can also do without those.
