[QUOTE][QUOTENAME]fairydandy wrote: [/QUOTENAME]For those of you who are too bone idle to click a link, here is my idea...
Copy and pasted from the link I gave...
I think we should try to get a Queen song into the top 40 in the UK. We should pick a song and a week to do it in...we should organise support from here, QZ and the QFC and we should see if we can do it (via downloads).
I suggest the song shoud be 'You And I' and I suggest we should all buy from the same place, '7 Digital'.
http://www.7digital.com/
Ok, so it will cost us 99p for the track, but hey, this really could work, we really could give Queen another hit single.
What do you say?[/QUOTE]
I say it's a silly idea. If I were to give Queen another hit single, I'd surely nominate a better song.
Best of luck, though!

Anyone in?[/QUOTE]
first of all don't attack people for not liking an almost completely hair-brained idea...
which part of your plan do you think is so fantastic? or plausible?
firstly, you are putting more money in the pockets of rich people who already have made money out of fools like us....ffs - i bought ADATR 3 times...once in 76 on vinyl, secondly in 82 for tha car cassette player and then finally on cd for the "added quality"....
secondly....look at the member list...how many people do you think it would take to dent the UK pop charts let alone reach number 1?
and...how is this in SERIOUS DISCUSSION section?
go away and come back when your brain is working in a forward gear

Brenski.
First of all, I did not attack anyone for not liking the idea. Read back, it's all there.
I have said that the idea is "fantastic" where exactly?
I don't care how many times you have bought ADATR. If you don't like the idea that's fine by me. ;-)
I said that I wanted it to reach No 1 where exactly?
Brenski if you want to play games, you had better do better than this. Seriously, you ain't up to it, now fuck off out of my topic.

If there's one thing Queen needs, it's more hits. God knows they've been long-suffering....
Maybe if that Singles Boxset comes out this year it might be more interesting to try and get one of the b-side tracks into the chart?

grow up you little c*nt....firstly it is NOT YOUR TOPIC...it's a discussion board...ie free speech and free opinions...interestingly enough (about the only thing interesting about this thread) is that MOST people who have replied with an opinion have disagreed with you. surely that would tell you your plan is (at best flawed) and (at worst) delusionally hairbrained, ill-though and downright cranky...
FORGET what your profile might say...you can only be one of two character-types...
1. pre-pubescent adult male who has just discovered his cock at the same time he discovered the internet...so has (like many millions of other idiots his age - don;t flatter yourself, you ain;t the first) decided to wank all over the discussion boards...or anything else the same basic colour as Kleenex
or
2. 53 yrs old and still living with mommy...she does your cooking, ironing and cleaning, she probably even collects your giro (welfare). Never had a girlfriend either - well not with a pulse, and you get yer rocks off by pretending to be a teenager.

Go away Brenski...I have already told you that you aren't up to it.
Right, that's the idiot out of the way.
Anyone think this is a good idea? ;-)

Well, Fairdandy, a few things.
#1
I fully support you if it means buying the Cool Cat single. That is one damn fine song!! My favorite off of Hot Space, and that's got quite a few good ones.
(Louvox, stop laughing, you know I'm being serious. Some of us love Hot Space)
#2
Is it a good idea, enough to cause a stir in the charts? No. And anyone is an "idiot" (your term) for even thinking so.
#3
You asked Barbara not to "waste your time". Isn't that what you're doing with all of us here? Just because YOU think it's a good idea, YOU can make the decision that it's worth a forum discussion? I don't think so.
Why don't you start reading some of my posts. They are actually well thought out ideas, and not someone else's. Come to think of it, there's quite a few on here that DO THE SAME THING! Barbara is one of those.
#4
I've had my share of run-ins with people on here, including Barbara. But see, we have had a "difference of opinion". Never did I ask her NOT to reply... in fact, what point is that? You opened up this can of worms, dig in.
#5
Piss off. You really annoy me, and since you have the power to tell people that, I most certainly have MORE power than you. I am a DEITY.

I respect that some of you don't like the idea, but after you have had your say (and attempted your little put downs) can you leave the topic to those of us that do like it? Thanks ;-)
I can put up with the idiots all day and night by the way, it won't have any effect on me at all.

As much as I love 'You & I', why don't you rather pick a song that was played live in the seventies, like, let's say 'White Queen'? At least, if it get's ranked as #1, we could demand Queen Productions to release a concert featuring it.
'You & I' was never played live so it would be a useless #1 song if you succeed in your plans ;-)
