Here's a hastily assembled mix that should be self-explanatory. Gotta say though, somewhere in the dark recesses of my mind a little voice is yelling that I've left off an obvious and deserving choice.

I sometimes get Casino Queen stuck in my head for days on end. I wonder what you think you're missing? Is it Homecoming Queen by Sparklehorse? Burger Queen by Placebo? Hairspray Queen? Acid Queen? Mississippi Queen? Killer Queen? Rocket Queen? Everybody Sings Queen?
Some more kicking Queen-related tunes for you:
Liz Phair - May Queen
Billy Thorpe & the Aztecs - Movie Queen
Paul Revere & The Raiders - Powder Blue Mercedes Queen
Harpo - My Teenage Queen
Keith & Tex - Queen Majesty
And to up the CANCON:
Chixdiggit! - Rave Queen
Pale Lips - Queen of Spades
Good suggestions, Jonder! "Acid Queen", "Killer Queen" and "Mississippi Queen" I considered, but wanted to find cover versions (I failed miserably at that particular quest). "Homecoming Queen" and "Hairspray Queen" I totally whiffed on.
Awesome suggestions, biopunk. That Chixdiggit track would've totally made it.
The Smithereens did Acid Queen on their Tommy covers album. Other suggestions (for volume 2?): Drag Queen by the Strokes, Karaoke Queen by Catatonia, Roller Queen by Jimmy Eat World, and Mean Teen Queen by the Nip Drivers! There are also several songs called Drama Queen. I love your concepts for theme mixes!
PS - according to secondhandsongs, there are 40 versions of Killer Queen, (including one by Matthew Sweet and Susannah Hoffs), and 20 of Mississippi Queen.
Love the Frank Sidebottom pick by Jonder!
A big one is Queen Bitch. Or is that in the wrong order? Lots of covers of that one too.
Also:
Truckstop Queen - Rachel Sweet
Staten Island Queen - Prissteens
Scooter Queen - Jeffie Genetic
Quasar Queen - Hammered Satin
Finchy
Queen Bitch is also the very first thing I looked for without even thinking about it. Little Queenie is also quite popular but maybe a little off track
Broken Hearted Beauty Queen - Willie Heath Neal
BMinNZ
Wow! So many great suggestions! Thanks to all!
"Queen Bitch" might be the one that's nagging at me. But I give myself these arbitrary rules. Like, I wanted song titles that were "______ Queen" instead of "Queen ______" and so a couple very worthy songs were disqualified. Maybe there'll be a second volume for the different word order.
