Because to the psycho Freddie fans, Queen = Freddie and Freddie = Queen. This never-ending droning on and on and on about "they shouldn't call it this" and "they shouldn't call it that" is people who can't let go of Freddie and see themselves as doing him a favor by deriding and wishing failure on Brian and Roger.[/QUOTE]
Do you honestly think so?
Again, the situation of the Rolling Stones is ENTIRELY different compared to Queen. The Stones still have their two original figureheads and main composers in their line-up after forty five fucking years.
For the Rolling Stones to be in the same situation as Queen, it would have required them to
1) have the same exact line-up for the first 20 years of their recording career (instead of the 6 years they managed!)
2) have Mick Jagger kick the bucket in the early 80's
3) have the band taking a break from recording until in the mid 90's when Keith Richards and Charlie Watts started to tour as "The Rolling Stones+Phil Collins".
Can anybody else see the absurdity in that situation, and claim that they would unconditionally accept that as a genuine Rolling Stones line-up? because that's what's being asked from the Queen fans.
Does that make me a psycho fan whose life ended in 1991 and only wishes failure on Brian and Roger, or the one who has a firmer grasp on reality?

Tero - We get it, you don't have to keep rotating the same post everytime someone says something positive about what is happening in 2008. Why justify your opinion from every angle unless you are just baiting those who don't share it that is?
Please deal with the fact that some of us understand why they are called Queen and we really don't mind and we also like the new album and we are looking forward to seeing the shows.
I have to agree that comparing Queen to the Stones is ridiculas Queen are by far a better band even with just the Guitarist and Drummer!!!
Is Finland really that boring?

You obviously don't get it that some people want to express their opinions on public messageboards, and have to instead resort to snide remarks about irrelevant things like other bands or my nationality.
And as a general music fan I take personal offence at these repeated comparisons to other bands when Queen's history is so obviously unique. If somebody can find a valid comparison between Queen and another band, I will happy to admit my error, but until that happens I will keep exposing the stupidity of these halfwit comparisons.

- Even as a huge music lover myself, I can't help feeling that you take music way to seriously... That is certainly an ok positioning, but maybe you should loosen up a bit? (No offence :))
