I've only just seen Electric sixs Radio Ga Ga video and seen how shit it actually is. I now wish i hadn't seen it. It gave me a headache.
I dont take the video seriously and I dont moan about how 'disrespectful' it is to Freddie and blah blah blah blah! But I actually think it's a terrible video! It's reeeealy boring! But it made me laugh the first time I saw it!
once again, Linda, you have told it like it is. I have seen the video, and though it does seem a little disrespectful to Freddie, it is...well...
ah screw this, I don't like it. Not because it has a guy dressed up as Freddie (with the fakest moustache of all time) dancing in front of Freddie's grave (which we all know does NOT exist, as he was cremated). It's because of the chemistry and style of the video. I mean, who the hell wants to see all those god damn poodles, anyway? Who says that they were so good
To be honest, I do think most of you have taken it quite seriously. A little too seriously, I must say. But I won't be one to tell you what to do. Leave that to the other arse-holes. As Freddie so humbly said, "Fuck them, darling, if they just don't get it."
(credit to GG on the quote, as it is in his sig)
So if you hate the video, or the song, or both, then just leave it be. Don't drag it on any further than it already is.
After seeing the video for a second time, it was funny...I thought they should have had cats instead of poodles in the video...
I think you guys are missing the point on so many counts.
Think back to how Mercury closed a concert by coming out in his regal dress to take the anthem, as a band Queen knew how to make a cover into something special.
I don't see Electric 6 any differently, its opening the music to a new audience. The video is fun, the poodles great and the style totally in keeping with their other songs like Danger High Voltage or Gay Bar an entertaining piece of fluff. The dancing on the grave is meaningless in the context of the video.
I doubt its a tribute more an exercise in fun, a party tune to be played this Christmas, like when I heard the original back in '84 between the constant repetitions of BandAid and the awful Shakin Stevens.
Mercury already has the perfect tribute, cast in bronze on the shores of Lake Geneva Montreux but the real legacy is in our hearts and memories and lives on in the bands music.
Electric 6 I wish them well.

I dont know what's wrong with me, but I like Electic 6's Radio Ga Ga more and more, I watching it couple times a day, and I still like it. What I suppose to do? Maybe I should go to my doctor?
im sorry, but this has been bugging me all the while i read each of these Electric Six topics....
the video isnt about "dancing on Freddie's grave". no one has bought this point up other than silly Queen fans who dont seem to understand the video.
if u dont like it, fine, your loss, but try to understand Electric Six are NOT trying to be disrespectful to Freddie and/or Queen in any way, shape or form. its just meant to be a silly tribute - in their own style, that i personally think is quite funny. i dont take offence to anything in the video. and to be honest, untill i first read peoples comments on here about the stupid grave thing, i hadnt thought of it at all.

I hope they'll overtake Band Aid and will go straight to No 1 in UK

no no that wouldn't do! The poodles obviously represent Brian in the video. let me just watch it a couple more times and I'll tell you where the John and Roger are...
It's funny, tasteless but funny..but I do like the music!
Queen music is still being recognised, isnt this a good thing. I say anything goes as long as its getting the music out there to people who wouldnt normally have a chance to hear it. just think how many people will like this song and want to find out more about it and therefore discover Queen for themselves.
I'll admit something..the cover of radio ga ga reminded me of queen and made me wanna listen to the original. which got me way back into queen. Ive always been a queen fan,but I have phases of intenstity..lol
I was all throughout december so every morning,(cos I had to go to college, I couldnt fall too far behind), I'd listen to the show must go on, and it always got me through the day. It made me think, if freddie could keep going with everything, then Im gonna keep goin, i may feel like shit but i gotta go to college so Im gonna face it with a smile.
hopefully the new years festivities last night will be a signal to the improvement in my health
apologies for kinda goin off topic.
