Should I translate a song title into Spanish?
I'm giving an oral presentation for my Spanish class on the band Queen. I'm in High school, and I just wanted to know whether I should translate the band name and/or song title on which I'm doing the presentation into Spanish or just leave them as is. I don't know what the common practice is here, and I just need some advice.
Thanks in advance!

Band names are not translated. Song titles sometimes are, but if you are going to translate them, be sure to give the original title in English first, with the translation in parentheses.

Proper names, titles,etc. are NOT translated.
You can say,"Queen" translates into "Reina".
Of course Freddy Mercury was gay, and gay guys are known as "queens", but you do NOT need to get into that explanation.
One of my favorite bands and singers of all time! I cried when Freddy died.
