What's better: Freddie Playing the guitar or Brian singing?
Wow, this is a very interesting question. One to which I'm not sure if I have an answer. One which requires much thought. Basically I just wanted to say that you get 8/10 "interesting and well thought out" points.

Well Freddie kept saying he couldn't play the guitar and Brian said he's not a singer but thats obviously not true.
Well, the only song we know where Freddie plays the guitar is Crazy Little Thing. It's 6 chords or so, and he plays them well, but it's nothing special. He might be able to play better than that, but we'll never know.

Now Brian isn't a brilliant singer, but I do rank his singing a bit higher than Freddie's guitar playing.
Flick of the wrist
I really love Brian's voice, I think its very soothing, I can see him singing a lullaby, not like his voice is boring and can put you to sleep or anything! But I'll say Brian's Singing...

Brian's singing ofcourse. You trying to say he wasn't good at that? Ha...He made two great solo albums and his voice is just wonderful, I tell you!
Freddie's guitar playing. The only thing I have to base that on is my opinion of Brian's singing. Sorry y'all, I just don't like his voice.

I suppose i can say that we do see lots of pictures from freddie in the 70's with a guitar in his lap. that has to say he knew the guitar better than he let on...right?

I think his voice is really soothihg too. When I have trouble sleeping (which is just about every night) I listen to "Just One Life" and instantly become very relaxed and fall asleep :) Too bad I couldn't have him sit next to me on my bed and sing me a lullaby while he gently strokes my hair *sighs* And then a kiss on the forehead would be nice too!

I don't know how well Freddie could play guitar. I would assume since there isn't much of his guitar playing on record that Brian's singing is better.

Gotta be Brian's singing. There's not a lot of Freddie's guitar playing, but plenty examples of Brian singing. Freddie was never good enough to tour and play lead guitar, so effectively, that should answer your question. Good question, though.
This can't end well.
