I'm not sure if this counts, here in this section but QUEEN WAS in the 70s-80s Ratio I think....and I love Queen. Many people mock them, because their lead singer was Homosexual, but I don't think that matters about a person(Sorry going off into a rant now.) But does anyone else, love Queen like I do? ^^
Love Queen. Freddie Mercury was brilliant and he was Queen. I have not heard anyone mock him who was in the business, in fact the opposite as most who have covered his music have said how difficult it was to do as to sound and phrase as he did was simply him. He was an artist that was better live than canned. Good music, good times and good memories.
If you were to judge a band on wether a member was homosexual or bi or whatever, you would have a very very small list of bands to choose from. Having said that, yeah, I liked Queen very much. Freddie had a great voice and I always liked Brian May's guitar work. Brighton Rock was a fav jam of mine.
I love the layered delays he did on that and "God Save The Queen". The overdub choir effect on "Bohemian Rhapsody" was fucking incredable. There is just so much incredible stuff to choose from. I like to play the bass line from "Under Pressure" at parties just to fuck with people. It's a great song inspite of the Vanilla Ice connection. Peace Out, Rev J
Queen is the shit. Freddy mercury was insaine, and I've always envied the nice warm tone the guitarist gets
He was bisexual, he was with a woman for years and years whilst the group were on the rise. I love Queen, I was brought up listening to the stuff. I have always tried to play the interlude to Innuendo on guitar with my dad on rhythm and it's fuckin' hard.
total agreement from me, back in the day Queen just about owned the air waves,too bad about ol Freddy ending up with aids,but damn those guys rocked the fucking world!!!
I'm really just baffled by the question. Queen stands as one of the hallmark bands in rock history. I honestly can't say that I have ever met anyone that DIDN'T like Queen.
I was listening to The Works on the way to my guitar lesson earlier. Queen are incredible, I was brought up on them, Freddie was probably the greatest front-man in the history of rock (in my opinion, anyways). My favourite Queen song, believe it or not, might be Innuendo. That song is underrated, and unadulterated genius on their part. I love I'm Going Slightly Mad as well, so I think that last album was great. He was dying at that point, and still managed to shine.
I also loved the fact that they named 2 of their albums after Marx Brothers movies. A Night at the Opera and A Day at the Races. Peace Out, Rev J
