and took them on to becoming the biggest group on the planet[/QUOTE]
Yes, the combination of Freddie, and the addition of John, helped them all realise their maximum potential, but i think you'll find that Roger and Brian were far more successful (a single release, Albert Hall gig) in 'Smile' compared to anything that Freddie had achieved up to that point with his uncontrolled vocals. If anything, Freddie kept pestering Taylor & May to let him be their singer because he saw the benefit to him in that, as much as vice versa.

When push comes to shove "Queen" the monster that the 4 of them had created was bigger than either one of them,
only when they got together as a 4 some, they were massive and unstoppable!
But Freddie got Brian and Roger out of the fog and on the road to fame and fortune!
if freddie hadnt of appeared no Queen would have materialised and Brian could have joined Sparks!

they were not "unstoppable"
America proved that in the early 80s.
and who's to say Brian woulda joined Sparks? he may never have had the offer to join them...as without Queen I & Queen II Brian would've likely as not been still below the radar at the time they (Sparks) were looking for a guitarist

Yes Queen were unstoppable in the 80s, they had a very successfull american tour, before going on to rio in Brazil,
sure they had a little bleep with sun city but recovered fast after live aid!
They were massive in 1986 on there Magic Tour, and the album made top 10 in the usa!

your definition of "unstoppable" is a curious one.
after building up huge success in america - peaking with"the Game" - they subsequently lost the whole of North America - check the facts - not another Billboard hit
- their albums (after The Game) peaked at 23, 22, 23, 46, 24,30 and 58
- their singles (over the same period) 29,11, 60, 16, 45, 72, 61, 42,50,
with the next big USA hit (being the posthumous TATDOOL/Bo Rhap) - which is widely credited to Waynes World
the above proves my point that your "unstoppable" comment is not accurate -
ps - Magic Tour was not worldwide...they did not go back to America with that tour....have you ever womdered why?

While europe aprreciated Queen better than those homophobic bible bashing yanks
who cares if Queen didnt get the respect that they deserved.
Americas loss, europes gain.
Surely radio gaga and i want to break free must have entered the billboard charts?

now perhaps you could either accept the point being made - or just carry on arguing with yourself.
