Bohemian Rahpsody # 163? no Crazy little, UP, AOBTD, WWRY, WATC, YMBF? I don't understand why RS magazine are so Anti-Queen. I mean, what do they consider "GREATEST"? If you go to any NFL, NHL, MLB, NBA game you hear WWRY. You see a reality show (Rockstar:INXS) and they perform BO RAH several times. WATC is a worldwide anthem for sports...Anyways, it was probably discussed before but I needed to let it out before I choke!

They calls 'Coldplay' as the best band in the world now, so what do you expect from them...
Who gives a fuck.
You like Bohemian Rhapsody, don't you? then it's allright, isn't it?

RS is a weak publication. Only to be out done by Hollywood Records. I went through the entire latest issue & there was no ad for ROTC.
You're right Dennis....
good to see like a rolling stone at number one.
too bloody right, it's a brilliant song!

I don't like that song. But it cannot be number one. What is the most well known song in the world? There's your number one...

Rolling Stone has always been a garbage magazine. Here's a great post once written by Arlene about them:
"Most of their writers are very slanted and what they write or cover (or don't cover) is very biased and based on politics, trends, money, etc.
R.S. has had a running war with Queen since the 1970's. It is virtually impossible for them to say anything of merit, or to even be civil to Queen.
When R.S. reviewed Queen's live South American show in the 80's,...the infamous one that pissed off Roger so bad he wrote them an angry letter on an airline sickness bag...
...the idiot writer from R.S. based his review..on Queen's SOUNDCHECK. How freakin' unprofessional is that? No band is gonna sound good at a soundcheck. THAT's WHY it's called a souncheck. To hammer out and rehearse any glitches in the performance, the instruments, the soundboard, etc.
FYI too. Most of the so called ''GREAT' long term writers for R.S. aren't even trained journalists with college journalism degrees. They all started out as 15, 16 year old kids and groupies in the 1960's hanging out with rockers and the R.S. original ''office'' was a hippy hang out pad in San Fransisco.
It's not like other newspapers or magazines where you have to have a degree and experience in journalism.
And...if for any reason you are on the SH*t list of Publisher/Founder/Editor In Chief Jann Wanner...R.S. will nail your ass to the wall.
If you are on the good side of Jann Wanner...you get continuous glowing coverage even if your music...or film, book, whatever is utter SHITE!!!!"

Rolling Stone is the most pathetic magazine in the whole fucking world. What magazine hate Queen more than this american rubbish?!
and whoever started this thread has a very weak stomach...
would you be happy if EVERY FUCKING poll that's ever done puts Bo Rhap at no1?...sounds like that's what you want.....
why don't some people round here get themselves a life...instead of living vicariously through queen's past lives

It's quite ironic that that had 'like a rolling stone' and a song by the rolling stones as the top 2 when the magazine is the rolling stone. ha ha, they were all probably too stoned when they wrote the list to appreciate GOOD music like Queen!
