Can I sing Queen songs? Yes.
Can I sing Queen songs well? I have no idea.
I mean, anyone can sing, can't they? Whether they can sing well or not is a different question. But I'm a very sing-y person - I'll walk around the house singing any random song that's stuck in my head, but my main 'shower songs' are Queen songs. After all, there's at least one for every occasion.
PS. The reason I don't know if I sing well is that I'm too afraid to record myself and find out. However, I like to think I'm good at singing.

I can do a fairly good Lennon impression
I can sing Flick of the Wrist, Teo Torriatte, Spread Your Wings, I Want To Break Free and a few others really well. I'm a tenor, 4 octaves. I've got a nice falsetto if I say so myself but I wouldn't say I sing Queen songs in any extraordinary way, not even close to Freddie.
I sound exactly like Freddie that is when he is hungover, got a sore throat and a blocked up nose. :)
I sound like Freddie being kicked in the privates.
I can sing most of the songs (thanks to Freddie not going as low as he could in most of them) - but I don't sound like him.
My voice is light. It's not really up for anything heavier than Velma Kelly. But it can get the notes - even when my tone-deaf family can't. :D

i sound like freddie... if i'm alone singing in my room when no one's watching. ;)
i sing queen songs in the form of hilda ogden
i do sing alot of queen songs, sound like freddie ? yes and no...well, i dont try to copy , i just try to project the right feel on the right time.
i mixt live and studio on some of them, or else my voice would die....loll...i try to imagine the last 3 albums , how live freddie might be.
i would say i can do 75% approx., on the key.

To me, the highest achievement is to sound individual whilst singing someone's music. I love singing - I'm doing it since I was a little child and I'm taking classical voice lessons at the time; I really like singing Queen songs, but when I was 13, 14 and fanatically into Queen I tried to copy Freddie's voice - now I'm aware that this can harm your voice. Every voice is individual; you can work with every voice, develop and 'strenghten' it and I think the highest 'magic' is to sing someone's music/song in a way as if it were 'your' song:)
Uhm, i can sing queen songs, not like freddie cause i have a voice that sounds a lot like Ian Gillan!!
It's still good, i can scream like him.
For example child in time or even the screams in mostly all of the songs!!lol
AHAAHAAHAHAHAHAHAH!(me screaming like ian gillan)

let's see...
i love singing, but i don't think im all that great. i am great at impressions, though. for me, singing to Queen is like doing an impression of freddie, and some of them im good at, some of them im not. like in nevermore, i just can't do that really high note at "Can't you see?" cuz than it just squeaks.
and i know im not tone-deaf. my friend kaytee, a fellow queen fanatic, is also always singing queen songs, but really, she's not good. in fact, she refers to her voice as the constipated chicken voice. lol. but yeah, i love singing, and if im in a good mood, im not afraid to sing in front of others, no matter how sucky it may sound.

i would agree with u, but my regular voice sounds like crap. and im sure my regular singing voice isn't so great either. besides, it's not like i'd actually be looking into a career of singing. god, no. just for fun, really.

I sing Queen
As to wether I sound like Freddie...I doubt it
I can mimic him and it sounds right but it doesn't sounf like Freddie because he was so much more than just the right words and the right notes.
