this is what i've learned in philosophical anthropology class: it is untenable for man to be repeated and it is impossible for man to be reincarnated. i guess that this applies here because no one could ever replace freddie, and we all know that, since there was only one farrokh bulsara in this world. it's also impossible for freddie's voice to be brought back to life in newer than ever queen tracks. same goes with john deacon and his bass playing. but in the end, we all have to realize thatnothing is constant in this world and that we just have to keep moving on. i'm not saying i'm in favor of Q+PR, but i'm actually just going to wait and see if all things work out. :D

"Would these people rather that Queen just died, along with their fans, never to be ressurrected and enjoyed by any other generations ever again?"
Sadly, we didn't have a choice. That's life, Freddie passed away taking from us.....you know I can't believe I'm defending Freddie Mercury being the one and only frontman for Queen on a fucking Queen forum quite frankly!!! Jesus, was 1991 that long ago?? It's one thing to cover the original songs live on a nostalgia tour but it's a vastly different matter to record new material and call it Queen.
And it's absolutely ridiculous to suggest that the legacy of the true band would die. You'll notice their back catalogue sells quite nicely. And there's surely more DVDs to come yet.

They go on about the band being a family at the end, but what do you do if (God forbid) you lose a member of your family. You wouldn't employ a replacement and tell people you were the same "family" out of basic respect!
I gotta have a smoke!

i dont live in the past sorry if you do.its not being a smartass its excepting things as they are now and moving on in life.i pity those that cant do that and am grateful that i can.

So am I, but they should use their own names.

No, it's coward, opportunistic, immoral and unethical.

Then close your eyes when you see a message stating that they're not Queen, they're just two former members not having enough courage to use their own bloody names.

That's utterly wrong. The three of them founded the band and decided later on that it would end if anyone of the four (now with John) left, ANYONE of the four. So Queen without John aren't Queen, Queen without Roger aren't Queen, Queen without Brian aren't Queen and of course, Queen without Freddie aren't Queen.
>Rick,you're wrong:brian and roger founded "Smile" with Tim Staffel,
That's not quite right: Brian and Tim founded Smile, then looked for a drummer and found Roger. But if we're saying Queen = Smile (replacing some members), we can also say that Queen = Wreckage (replacing some members), or Queen = Smile = Reaction.
> but then he left and Freddie joined and WAS HIM who changed the name to Queen.
He didn't join: both bands were off and they decided to form a new one the three of them. So Queen weren't Smile, they were a new band with two members of Smile and one member of Ibex, Wreckage and Sour Milk Sea.
> their using "50% QUEEN"?.
A new name, that's all. Like Asia, like Velvet Revolver, like Supernova...[/QUOTE]
It's nice to see that there is someone else on Queenzone who shares my views, rightly or wrongly.
Those of us who believe Queen are no longer an active band are seemingly quite happy to live in the past in that sense, as Queen are in the past.
Queen finished touring in 1986.
Queen's last studio album was released in 1995 - using songs recorded by Freddie Mercury before his death, along with b-sides and covers of existing songs done by the band members' own solo projects.
Queen's last single was in 1997 - No-One But You, whilst not being a true Queen song in the sense of all 4 members being musically present, it is a Queen song in that the 3 surviving members are present for their final work and ultimately as a tribute to Freddie Mercury.

How can that be when the recent Queen + Paul Rodgers line-up consisted of 6 people?
Brian
Roger
Paul
Danny
Jamie
Spike
And to add on the success of Freddie's solo compilation (LOLSOS) and its success over Return of the Champions, I hate to break it to some of the children here, but Freddie's solo work is only popular today because he's dead. It's the truth.

That's one of the stupidist comments I've seen, and frankly you should be ashamed to have written that. By your way of thinking, by continuing to record as Queen, aren't they then guilty of cashing in?

That's one of the stupidist comments I've seen, and frankly you should be ashamed to have written that...[/QUOTE]
But, what was the reason behind:
The Freddie Mercury Solo Box set:
-It wouldn't have been released if he was alive, he'd probably be too busy making new stuff to worry about the past
"LOLSOS":
-That one is obvious
The Freddie Mercury Album (AKA The Great Pretender):
-Released less than a year after he died
So, was my comment stupid at all?
As for the other part, are they cashing in on Freddie's death by recording a new album?
No, they already did that with LOLSOS. And by YOUR way of thinking, if they made an album with Paul Rodgers, they'd have a hard time cashing in on it because Freddie wouldn't be a part of it. You said yourself that LOLSOS did better than Return of the Champions. If they really really wanted to cash in even more, they'd release...I dunno,
"The best of Freddie Mercury Part 45 (P.S. he wrote the Bohemian Rhapsody that was on Wayne's World)"
or something like that.
