I've always thought Killer Queen would suite Blur, has the same quintessential English heart. I'd have loved to have heard Chris Cornell sing a queen song. I've heard actually that he was supposed to be singing instea...

What a load of cuntrot. Dion and Williams? Oh do fuck off. As John said "Nobody can replace Freddie, especially not that cunt".

clarification of Thor Arnold's role in Freddie's life
One small point I would take up in Queen's defense is after Freddie's death they did then press GO on AIDS awareness starting off with the Trust and the concert etc. Obviously they couldn't go against his wishes when...

The best and worst Queen / Queen+ releases / reissues since 1991

It was good while it lasted...

".....they'll put those 2 songs back in as those were on the Live Killers album that was the 79 European tour..." Those 2 songs weren't on the Live Killers album. So on the American tour IL and SYW lasted 2 nights.

New here. How refreshing to read some honest difference of opinion between fans. Not just Adam is shit and no Freddie or unadulterated arse and smoke blowing. I've seen them twice with Adam and both times they were gr...
