Rob Halford says that Judas Priest is like a heavy metal version of Queen

"Well, ironically enough, given your last question, I think that calling us a heavy metal version of Queen would be quite a decent comparison. I’ve been a huge Queen fan all of my life. And when I think back on all the songs that Judas Priest has created over the last four decades or so, I think we do have a bit of a Queen vibe about us, in terms of not putting blinkers on oneself, letting the music take you where it needs to go, and being from the heart. Because Queen was a band that never let itself be boxed in."

I love Queen & Judas Priest

Weren’t Queen, at times, a heavy metal version of Queen

"Weren’t Queen, at times, a heavy metal version of Queen"

Good point

I remember an interview years ago where he said the only music on his ipod was Judas Priest and Queen.

We all know who was the only band on the planet who really got what Queen has been all about over these years.

Paul. Gary. Kev. Ian. Nuno.

^ what about Pat?

Not sure who Ian is.

I was making fun of their boring names.

Ah. Totally missed the point.

On a band site about a Brian Roger John and Freddie.

I'm pretty sure NUNO beats em all in uniqueness. (*I've deferred usage of Trump as a verb until this asshole spew piece of repugnant shit is out of office)
