[i]No-one can top the master if he was voted many times as #1as a rock singer I don´t think Paul can beat him(or even get closer to him)unless #0 is better.[/i]
Yes....in the shower!!!!!
I think Fat Bottomed Girls suits Paul better than Freddie. I also love what he did with We Are the Champions. If you think blues, the music of hard-working slaves, is whinny, then buy yourself a nu-metal CD and fuck off :-)
I think Paul would do a great job injecting some masculinity into "Get Down Make Love" (no pun intended) as it is certainly a topic he addresses in many of his songs. A lot of time ago someone said that all his songs are about having a hard on, which I thought was hilarious, hehe :).
In my opinion Q+PR managed to make a good album with good arrangements (sound like MIH at times) and well played but the songs were not great and particularly the lyrics were the worst part. Too bad for them that the Queen name makes people compare it against ANATO or The Game and there it fails.
I find myself listening to Voodoo a lot in recent days. I love the overall ambience of the song and Brian's guitar with Paul's voice. I think Freddie would have loved exploring this direction, had he lived long enough.

Some of the songs paul sang good were "tie your mother down" 'fat bottomed girls" but even those I like freddie's voice better. The songs that work the best in concert are the paul songs.
are some of you for real? of course the key has to be changed for some songs, because all voices are different. you are not necessarily a better singer just because you can sing a song in e while another guy has to sing it in d.
of course freddie is number one and will always be, but those of you trying to back your opinions by saying that paul cant sing, cant hit the notes etc... thats ignorant because it just isnt true.
i dont think paul does any song better or worse, just different. love his versions of tymd, fat bottomed girls, aobtd, tsmgo, bhorap, want to break free... etc.

Freddie is better as Freddie is the best frontman and singer in the world.
But... Paul is great in his own way, he has changed the style and the sounding of the band. The question is whether it is good or bad for Queen, the two remaining members of Queen. And why not change? For example, the Beatles changed a lot throughout their career.

Thanks for that, but I thought IWTBF was in C, but I'll happily take your word.
You know, it may be just a tone difference, but I haven't heard a Q+PR version of SMGO that doesn't sound like a dirge.
Let's not forget that if we're talking "live", then Freddie was somewhat more an entertaining performer. A true showman. He certainly moved about the stage more than Mr Rodgers would do in a week. And a lot faster too.
[/QUOTE]
Yeah, if Paul could move faster, that would be great!
Good voice on his own, anyway, to raise Queen stuff to life

PR is nearly 60... Freddie was in his his mid to late 30s when he was so energetic... but I get what you're saying.

Freddie would become like Jagger in showmaning in his 50's,60's,70's, not like Paul.
I'm afraid Paul and Roger love eat - they so nauseatinglu fat
Brian is much better, though not Mick Jagger kind.
I'd love travel back in time and save one mans life
