Bumping this, since Saint Jiub seems to be in the line of fire for the ObnoxiousSweetCaroline thread.
Well, take a look at who started this thread and what SweetCaroline and snifflese posted in this one. Hardly innocent...no matter how much they say they are.
Did you see Gerard Way was dreaming about ‘The Show Must Go On’? Queen streaming and sales have been increasing during this crisis.
Remember last year when I was saying something bad will happen, maybe sooner than later, and millions will be listening to Queen? Maybe even as they go into their final sleep, the last thing they hear will be Freddie Mercury?
And look at that... whole cities listening to Queen... crazy, but it was bound to happen.
After watching whole videos of cities playing Queen music, I can imagine one Adam Worshipper was thinking, maybe angrily, “I hope they at least give Supah Powah a spin!”
Could care less if Adam gets a spin or who plays his music. I like it and that is all that matters. I don't think that most of his fans are quite so obsessed. I think you people have a problem, as you are so worried about Adam singing and people liking it. He seems to be a huge threat somehow. If you didn't worry about how popular Adam has become singing Queen music, you wouldn't have all this angst and constant need to promote Freddie and degrade Adam. Ridiculous! You need to find something more important to focus on. You seem to have this death obsession and what music is going to be played. At that point for me I could give a crap as to the music. It would not be on my mind at all and I think most people wouldn't be thinking about it either. They would be thinking about family at that point! That is such a crazy idea of yours.
In my own case I'm not threatened by crapbert at all. I just can't stand his vocals and his technique grates me. I quite want to see Brian and Roger play live but I can't because he's going to be there ruining the experince.
But if Brian and Roger decided to do a tour without crapbert just as instrumentals I will most likely go see it. I also think performing the songs purely as instrumentals would be very poignant and more respectful to Freddus than having this muppet interfere with the experince.
Offended?? I don't think so. I just think all your death talk is ridiculous, as is your need to make Freddie the end all and be all for everyone in the world. He can be that for you, but I doubt that applies to most people. It just sounds foolish.
He is, though, well... for many. I said do last year, and it’s been happening. People on here doubted it. Queen’s streams have increased in regions with devastation. Did you hear any cities playing Supah Powah?
No? Why not?
Fine, I am really impressed, but don't really care. How would you ever expect Adam or almost anyone else to come anywhere close to Queen's streaming numbers? They have been a band since 1970, which is 50 years ago, and have produced tons of albums and are enjoying a huge resurgence with their own movie, touring and playing over 230 concerts in the last 6 years and you think Adam should come anywhere close to them? Who is dreaming, now? I am not sure anyone compares to the most iconic band ever. Go find something productive to do. We all know what is patently obvious and the reasons for it. No one compares to Queen in my book. Doesn't mean, however, that I can't love Adam's voice and enjoy QAL. I won't be playing anyone's music at the end of days!
Well excuse me, but the folks I know in my life don't worry about things like Queen's music or any of the things that are discussed here. I think you people who are all consumed with this topic are not the norm and a very small minority of people. I like music a lot more than 90% of the people I know and none of them worry about the things you post here.
I am not making any excuse and I have no idea what you meant by the streaming sentence. What excuses am I making? NO ONE is probably ever going to sell more music than Queen, as they are iconic and have been around for 50 years. You mentioned previously how their streaming has gone up, not me. I assume it is the movie and touring and their prominence in social media because they are playing again. This topic is stupid and you can obsess about it all by yourself.
