They have sold an estimated 190 million records around the world and, in their home country of Britain, remain second only to The Beatles in terms of sales and collectability (though in 2005, they actually exceeded the number of weeks spent on the British chart by The Beatles).

The band also paved the way for the commercial music video, having promoted their 1975 hit Bohemian Rhapsody with a conceptual promo which was released worldwide--many consider this to be the first true music video.

Several other films featured their songs, including Iron Eagle, National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon, Wayne's World, Small Soldiers, Super Size Me, A Knight's Tale, The Girl Next Door, and Shaun of the Dead. The song "Bohemian Rhapsody" was re-released after appearing in Wayne's World, and subsequently made number 2 on the US billboard chart. A year earlier it went to number 1 in the UK for a second time, the first time this had happened in that chart's history. Queen | Voice RingtonesDisplaying 1 - 11 of 11 ringtones:
» INFO | did you know? « Queen never actually disbanded, although their last album of original material (not including compilations) was released in 1995, titled Made In Heaven, put out four years after Freddie Mercury's death, and constructed from Freddie's final recording sessions in 1991 (which the last session was said to have been only 10 days before his death), plus material leftover from their previous studio albums. May and Taylor have been involved in projects-often related to raising money for AIDS research and promoting its support. John Deacon generally keeps a very low profile-only re-appearing to quash the notion of Queen re-forming. May and Taylor do participate in the making of "Queen + ..." projects with various guest musicians, something which Deacon is said to generally support, although he is alleged to have expressed criticism towards the projects with Five ("We Will Rock You", 2000) and Robbie Williams ("We Are The Champions", 2001).
