Somebody To Love. It has all the best elements of a Queen song--theatrics, a campy backup chorus, heartfelt lyrics, a melody that shows off Freddie's range... the only thing missing is a longer guitar solo but the short one that exists is a killer. And it's meaningful.
Second best: Play the Game. For pretty much all the same reasons as Somebody to Love.
Honorable mention: Killer Queen. Fastidious and precise.
