Yes, keep voting. Consider today as the day to honor Freddie. Vote for him.
You can't vote as often, now, for some reason.
Could be my pc.
Still, Queen are in the lead...not by much.

I'm so freaking tired of these lists. Does anyone really, honestly care???
If Queen is #1 I say, "Yeah, I knew that already." If Queen is #503 I say, "F'ing idiots." But really when you think about it all, does any list carry weight of any kind?? Like the 2nd post of this thread said, they voted 7 times for Queen. That means right there that the vote is completely invalid because of cheating, but even if they didn't cheat it's not like every human being on Earth voted.
My top bands of all time list goes Queen, Beatles, Zeppelin, and that with a nickel will get you jack shit.
The only lists of any real worth are statistical sales lists or awards like the Oscars where the voters are at least a select group of professionals within the area of music.
Furthermore, does it really at all matter? Look at the results as a whole. Queen can't outsell Elvis Presley, an early rock vocalist with a little bit of talent outside of his amazing vocal ability, and a song catalogue of simple tunes written by other people. Or just look at Queen. I'm not certain but I think in the USA their top selling single and biggest hit, which sadly is Another One Bites The Dust, and tell me if I am right in thinking that it didn't top Ice Ice Baby which is a non-intelligent rap mutation of a Queen bassline from Under Pressure. I don't think any Queen album has sold as many copies as the top 2 or 3 Mariah Carey albums. Is that information damning to Queen, or to our mongaloid culture?
But most of all is that Queen's music is for enjoying and to compare it with the rest is an urge sought out towards validating one's personal taste by the quantity of others who might feel similar love for it. Does that really enhance anyone's lives?
