In support of contribution #181204-014026-806000.
Queen are not just credited in Highlander (1986), they have "songs and additional music by" in the main titles, preceding "music score by" credit, which might even merit main composer slot considering unusual placing. Nevertheless I added the band with that formulation to "music department" and individual members as "composer: additional music (uncredited)", considering that their contributions merit at least 50% of all music in the film and every single member of the band has several pieces credited to them in confirmed soundtrack items, including instrumentals.
 
Here is the credit as it appears in the main titles:

Hi Nikolay,

I think you've got it about right there, although the music plays a key part in the movie there is a (music score by) credit which should fill the composer slot.

In this case there can be only one ;)

Great thanks, Will! I am more then okay with Queen being listed in Music Department as long as they are actually listed. 

I like what you did there with a quote. :)
