Bo Rhap is the most successful single on earth, but he's right... it's all fake, all crap (-;
He's a writer... never listened to real music I think.

Come on guys really look at the paper this guy writes for, every one knows that papers like the daily mirror are directed at the interlectual capacity of a seven year old. And even to reply to this myself i find a little low.
History speaks for itself, we are talking about one of the biggest selling outfits of the past few decades on a worlwide basis. Not many bands have ever made this step especially for such duration. The only "super- band" of current light to do the same is U2. No longer do we live in the age of genuine massive bands, the "limited edition" manufactured garbage runs a mock of us all. Mr. Parsons does the same in the light to his article.
Sure the guy can have his opinion, and im sure he's not the only one who thinks like this. But with the continual and every growing number of fans form professional musicians and consumers alike (for a band who have not released new material for some time) Queen remian one of the most important bands of our time - the numbers speak for themselves.
If a band like Bon Jovi can release an album titled 100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong I wonder how much larger this number would be for Queen.

Nice! hehehe, but u guys shouldn't feel attacked, i mean it's just a journalist, COME ON! Queen didn't care and we shouldn't either!
Tony Parsons is just a jumped up barrow boy who works for a rag thats been slowly going down the pan for years.
Tony Parsons is a prat, he is always on Tv or writing out about how bad everything is, he never has anything postive to say about anything.
Im sure I saw a photo of him standing with brian once at some Showbiz bash, where was his quaffing the free champagne. Ignore this screwball.

Well, I think the Daily Mail is my regular paper now. I liked the article 'We Will Rock You (Again)'by David Thomas. Especially end.
'So Queen aren't really replacing Freddie Mercury, because you can't replace Freddie Mercury, but somehow, I think we already knew that.'
Tony Parsons vs. David Thomas please!

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but its apparent this guy doesn't know what the HELL he is talking about!

Are you completely sure of this claim? Can you back it up?
I can't add anything else to this discussion than has already been said. Parsons is entitled to his opinion, and that's about it.
I feel quite proud that he slagged Queen off. This is a guy who thinks the Smiths are a GREAT British band? And the Stone Roses? This guy obviously had an operation to remove any musical taste very early on in life. So if he thinks Queen are crap, that's alright with me.
some people don't know good music when they hear it! i'll bet he's a homophobic the way he talks about freddie mercury like that. why can't they keep their snidy and sarcastic opinions to themselves.
poor journalist forced to go and see one of the greatest rock bands in the world in Wembley....;)
I 100% disagree, except from his comment about U2
