Voting for INNUENDO and/or HEADLONG on the setlist
Neither. Innuendo is a much better song, but doesn't lend itself well to live performance. Headlong just isn't that appealing to most Queen fans. The boys would be much smarter to include both Under Pressure and I Wan...

This Article makes me sick
I consider myself a devout Christian, but this author, David Stewart, is the kind of person who gives Christians a bad name and reputation. Here he is, trashing another human being, while using God as a weapon. He's p...

How loud was the bass at concerts
I saw Queen perform live on three different occasions. Yes, John's bass was loud, but it was very well balanced with the other components of the music and the show. The focal point of a Queen concert was nearly always...

change jesus to freddie in church
It disgusts me that Queen fans can be so divided on this issue. Didn't Freddie sing "This Can Be Heaven for Everyone"? The crassness of many of the atheists on this forum has made me question whether I want to be asso...

change jesus to freddie in church
If I were at a well-attended meeting (let's say 300 people attending a lecture in an auditorium) and Freddie were to walk in, I would STAND to honor the world's greatest performer, the great vocalist, the genius compo...

Did Queen have the best stage and video costumes?
How can you ignore Elton John?!? And from my perspective, Elton and Freddie wore many costumes that were so ridiculous that they detracted from the quality of the musical performances.

Freddie Mercury compared to other vocalists LIVE!!
I was lucky and saw/heard Freddie Mercury and Robert Plant at their best. And yes, they were the best. I also liked Steve Perry's voice a lot, but he turned out to be an asshole. I regret not ever hearing Steve Tyler...

Queen as a Heavy Band???

What is Queen's best song lyrically?
Just wanted to say that I have enjoyed this thread. It has become a reminder of how many great messages the members of Queen were able to put to music. And the music was nothing short of superb.

Who Dislikes Paul Rodgers?
Paul Rodgers is mahvelous. And if he hadn't hooked up with Brian and Roger a couple of years ago, I would not have had the opportunity to see and hear a Queen concert again. Paul gets a strong thumbs up.

GEORGE MICHAEL OR PAUL RODGERS?
George Michael did a great job singing Somebody to Love at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert, but Paul Rodgers, by far, is a better fit with the overall body of Queen's catalog. Paul Rodgers wins easily.

Do Queenfans like Rolling Stones?
Amen to Fat Queen Pig. Queen's music was/is superbly constructed. The Rolling Stones' music showed no imagination and was designed only to stimulate our most base instincts. On a musical level, Queen leaves most other...

If Queen Were Offered Knighthoods..
These guys are a class act. They would not only show appropriate respect and accept the bestowal of Knighthood, but they would also feel honored. Brian in particular has always shown utmost respect to the queen, so wo...
