Ain't that the truth.

The singing needs work but it's not the disaster some are saying Many of Fred's songs are very hard to sing and impossible to emulate. Maybe try something a bit easier next time. Good luck with your band dude.

Wizard: Im not making a fool of myself, what, just because im not agreeing with you then that makes me a fool? YOU think they are more important than Freddie but in my mind, Freddie was the BEST thing that ever happend to music. You are surely selling him short, you are almost acting as if he was just some random musician that had some great hits,while in my oppinion he was music itself.

I almost feel like when he died, he took music with him slowly but surely. It was like his presence inspired everybody else to create good music and then he left and music never became the same. That is how i feel. Noone can deny his power, you can't deny that he had what noone else seems to have. He was magic.

Holly : Thanks, finally someone that can be honest with their critique. Exactly , its not like Freddies songs are a cake walk , especially for someone that has not been singing for all that long. I will be practicing my vocals so one i will prove the haters wrong!

As long as it's only in your mind. Because in the real world, you're wrong.

As great as Freddie was, he is not in the same league as the true game changers of music - people like Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Stravinsky, Rachmaninoff, Gershwin, Miles Davis, The Beatles, Frank Zappa, John Williams.

Freddie's greatest achievement is Bohemian Rhapsody. The above people each created dozens of Bohemian Rhapsodies and/or greatly affected the popular culture of their time.

This is not a matter of opinion, or agreeing/disagreeing. This is a matter of knowledge of a particular subject versus ignorance.

You sound like you belong in a religious cult. Music did not somehow die after 1991.

Haha trust me im in no way shape or form religious or stand for man made religion :P Im totally for freedom. Anyways, who is to say that even without all those musicians/composers, that Mercury still would'nt have made the music he made? We can never know, so my world could be as real as your world. There is no other artist in the world that is as appreciated as Mercury is, everybody wish they could be like him cause of his pure awesomeness and honest character. Im not being bias here, im saying what i believe is the truth that he was the one and only. He has done what no other man has done, look at We are the champions for example, that is a song that many people i've comeacross, thought was everybodys song as if it was not written by a guy from a band. He could write music in a universal way, his music almost appeals to everyone, that cannot be said about others.

You can say the same for Rock and Roll part 2 by Gary Glitter.

Ehmmm NO? You can clearly hear that that song is a song made by a regular band, nothing special at all about that song...???

Not even close to the sheer universal power of The champions.

Bob, just let Lil' Ayatollah Moment be. He obviously refuses to leave his fantasy land and join the real world. Let them enjoy their own sugarcoatIng. All we're only doing is fuelling their trollmobile.

Btw Amir...have you seen Andreas' lovely tribute to you and your brother?

Freddie is/was NOT a god. He was a human with an amazing singing talent. God needed him for voice lessons.

:)

Although God made a mistake by trying to give him a new set of vocal chords on his birthday during the Works Tour ;-)

The Gary Glitter track has been played at sporting events for the last 40 years. It is at least as universal as We Are The Champions. Granted, it's not nearly as interesting of a song, but that's beside the point. Your argument was that only Queen could create something universal like this. I provided an example that proved otherwise.

Next..
