Worst singer replacements by MSN

Number 2 out of 10:
2. Paul Rodgers replaces Freddie Mercury in Queen (2005)
A fairly recent development in popular music, but already likely to go down as one of the worst crimes against rock ever, the surviving members of Queen have taken to the road. Singing the tunes made famous by the late Freddie Mercury, certainly among the greatest lead singers of all time, is Paul Rodgers, formerly of Bad Company and Free. The thought of the leathery vocalist of "All Right Now" and "Feel Like Making Love" tackling "We Are the Champions" and "Bohemian Rhapsody" is probably what's responsible for the terrifying screams erupting from rock fans around the globe in recent months, who can only find solace in the fact that Rodgers does not even attempt the vocals on "Killer Queen." The group bills itself as Queen + Paul Rodgers, which is a little like Anthrax + Kenny G or N.W.A. + George Michael.

Who else was on the list, out of curiousity?

Thanks! :)

Yeah, Paul Rodgers isn't really that good...But at least Queen has a singer so that Brian and Roger could still play together. x_x

But the thing that i dont get it....Brian is a pretty decent singer...like his work on sail Away sweet sister, some day one day, All Dead All Dead, etc...ANd Rog, has an AMAZING voice!!! I remember when he sang, Im in love with my car in concert...ahhhh!! It was amazing!

I don't know re: Ray Wilson on the list. I liked Ray Wilson. "Sign Your Life Away" rocked socks. I may be the only one, however.

AMEN!

I don't think Paul is a horrible singer but I mean, come one, he can't sing anywhere near as good as Freddie. But of course no one ever will. When I saw them in Philadelphia, some guy screamed "Ready Paul" during CLTCL instead of "Ready Freddie" so I was forced to throw my soda at him. I wish Brian and Roger did all the singing.

I agree!

Those people don't know SHIT about music

it's all bullshit

OK. They say that Sabbath == Ozzy, but Mr. Dio rocked Sabbath.

In fact, I just came from a Dio show. One of the best voices ever. It is a shame that he only sings metal. When he sings other music styles it is very nice to hear his clear voice.

Well, whatever: lists are shit.

Surely they must be from Rolling Stone magazine.
