The first real “anthem” in the bands catalog, Lap has little to do with the Side Two opener save the name. Instead, it’s a stadium ready beast that seems to say (well, Freddie is the one saying it, really) “we are meant to pay for thousands, nay, HUNDREDS of thousands of people and we can pull it off!”
And pull it off he does. I mean, they do.
A true coda, a genuine finale, to a near perfect record and one that stands the test of 27 years’ time.
