God Save The Queen

I was never a hardcore fan of the band Queen, i liked them fine but i wouldn't say i was a massive fan but it appears there are plenty who are because their Greatest Hits album, released in 1981, is at number 1 again in the UK Albums charts.
To celebrate its 40th year anniversary, the record label released the album on CD and cassette which might have made for some amusement with anyone under 20 on what the hell to do with a cassette, i haven't seen a cassette player for years and to be honest i was glad to see the back of them, the amount of times a favourite cassette was chewed up by the machine and i had to carefully unwrap it from around the cogs of the damned thing and wind it back into the plastic holder with a pencil.
I remember running back home one day in 1995 holding Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette in my hot little hand only for it to be immediately sucked into my cassette player workings and snapping and having a lesson by a friend in how to sellotape the bits of tape back together and NOT BUYING BLOODY CASSETTES! 
Anyway, Don’t Stop Me Now and Killer Queen are probably my favourite Queen songs, i have heard the likes of Bohemian Rhapsody, Another One Bites The Dust and We are The Champions way too much over the last 40 years for them to excite me anymore although i can always appreciate Freddie Mercury's
mighty vocals and Brian May's brilliant guitar work.
The album has spent a total of 952 weeks, a tad over 18 years, on the UK album chart, selling over 6.3 million copies just ahead of ABBA's Greatest Hits which has sold 5.5 million and The Beatles Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band on 5.3 million.
Looking at the Top 20 albums in the UK, i have or have at some point owned only 5 of them which may say something about my musical tastes but as 15 of the 20 were released pre-2000, it may also say something about today's music, or the people buying records, whatever, it's Sunday afternoon and i can't be bothered to work out which it is.  
So i am guessing that the Queen album is being bought today by a new, younger generation who will be like a shooting star leaping through the sky, like a tiger defying the laws of gravity...or they will once they work out who still owns a cassette player.
