No New Queen album without Freddie

hi i am johnny and in 2005 queen+pr brought out return of the champions, and i have to say the only song i actually listened to was bohemian rhapsody, the other three or maybe five was brians '39 and freddie's love of my life(not as good as the wembley performance by freddie) and rogers say it's not tue (never heard it before and i have to say it was alright) and the others being his won songs radio ga ga and these are the days of our lives(no where near as good as freddie's last performance)

I know i might be tempted to by the new album and probably won't but i do think that this will nat pay off and queen should stick to nostalgic songs performed with freddie and i do feel as if that is a tribute as it stands

No Freddie = No Queen.

I therefore urge people to honour Freddie's memory and do not buy any new Queen album with the overated Paul Rodgers on it.

I thank you.[/QUOTE]]

or I could still buy it to complete my collection because as much as I dislike Paul's eyes, it has Roger and Brian in it

Oh god, another fucking waste of time. Don't you people have girlfriends / boyfriends ?

And I thank you for sharing your feeling, buttercup. Don't buy the record. Your problem is thus solved.[/QUOTE]

I just had to laugh out loud at that one! :)

I do. She's at home studying for an accountancy examination. Which explains why I'm wasting my time in moronic threads like this one.

I liked the new song they were playing on the NA tour. I think I'll buy it, and I don't care what you say. ;)

Oh my... the Poodlians are back. RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!

1/2Queen+Paul Rodgers= some kind of maths it looks like

No Freddie + No John = No Queen.

And there you have it.

As I said in my review of ROTC (on Queen + Paul Rodgers Tour board), I respect their decision to do what they like to do (touring, playing music etc.). And I won't enter into debates whether Q+PR is really Queen or not. It's common sense.

However, I do have a comment on Brian's statement about playing the new material. Brian, how about changing the setlist? Queen had so many albums and so many great songs. Are you lazy to practice and play those 'less-known' songs? Let me think: Brighton Rock, In the Lap of the Gods, You're My Best Friend, Liar, Somebody to Love, Don't Stop Me Now, It's Late, Keep Yourself Alive, March of the Black Queen, Killer Queen, Stone Cold Crazy, Death on Two Legs, White Man, Dreamer's Ball etc. etc.

You could come up with a totally different setlist. But, oh, I forgot... You don't have a singer who could sing all these diverse songs...

wish it was different, but...............melding pomp-rock of the highest degree with grub-rock of the lowest degree has not, does not and will not, ever work! please, all who support and defend this abomination and dare i say, raping of the queen legacy.....shut the ^#$@ up!...........ps/ simply put, they can still play this junk, just don't call it queen!...........cheers, jimi love

You are entitled to your (closed-minded and extremely ignorant) opinion; you are, however, NOT entitled to slander, as you do with Mr. Rodgers. It proves you are a musical moron, not fit to give his opinion.

As for your "No Freddie = No Queen" reasoning, it is not only debatable, but also in practice very silly: Mercury became a member of a band called Smile, which then changed its name to Queen, without marking a radical departure in style (as 2/3 of the original band were represented in the new one), and thus his impact may have been great, but he was not the decisive factor.

Any claims to the opposite point to a weak mind easily influenced by outward appearances and a thorough inability for critical analysis of music.

Then there is the issue of a new album: your reasoning is that it should not be there, because Freddie doesn't feature on it. What you are thus saying, is that anyone who has ever played with a great band that does no longer exist, should no longer be allowed to make music. In other words: nothing is better than anything. That is your reasoning, and it is a completely daft reasoning at that.

do you?

What the fuck happened to Live and Let Live??

This bunch of people can listen to this music, and say its fantastic,
That bunch of people can simply not listen to it...

END OF PROBLEM.

Fucking hell...

I'll certainly buy the album.

Pffft. Get a life. I'll buy the album. If you don't like Paul...at least consider the fact that WITHOUT said person, Roger and Brian wouldn't be touring right now. And you wouldn't have been (if you did) able to see them live. APPRECIATION. Jeez. I certainly will buy the album. And PR is NOT overrated. Ugh.
