Icy, I am not having a go at you, honestly, but you find offense with everything that QAL does. That sons shouldn't be sung by Adam if it was a certain Freddie song or from a Certain album and the list is endless. Your relatives know Queen because they are learning it from you. The average kid in America doesn't have a clue for the most part unless they have parents who love Queen. That is the honest truth from all the kids I have seen in my time (and it is a lot). Yea, Queen is popular now, but it is still overwhelmingly older Queen fans and Adam fans. There is a huge universe out there that is not at all familiar with Queen. For me I would like to see more of what Queen is doing now as QAL. The vaults are great, but they don't mean to me what they do to you. I want a QAL DVD and I would love to hear a song or two written by QAL. I guess I live for the now and you live for the past, both different acceptable POV's.
Thats crap by the way that I find everything Q+AL does as an offense. Guess you missed it, or you have chosen to ignore that I loved what they did at the Oscars. But that doesn't suit your agenda, I suppose.
Of course what Queen did with Freddie doesn't mean as much to you. You have made clear you think Q+AL is more important. I think the history of Queen is important, and if a Glambert can't take a couple of minutes to even learn who wrote what in Queen, all the while bigging up AL, that's something else.
Queen is getting new fans of the younger crowd, these days in he part due to the biopic, and because alot of Queen's music is great.
If I truly lived in the past, I would not like anything at all entertainment wise these days. I wouldn't like Feel Something for example. I have often said before, if I like, love or hate something, I will say so. My entertainment world isn't just focused on AL or even Q+AL. There is a huge world of great music out there, past and present...and I love and like a great deal of it. I actually hate very little of it when it's said and done. For example, Eminem...can't stand a lot of his music, but Lose Yourself is pretty damn good, IMO. On the other hand, I love Def Leppard, but I can't stand Woman. I love Queen more than any other band, again, I hate Put Out The Fire. It's not so black and white you see. Maybe for you it is, but it's not that way for me.
