When did you grow out of being a contrarian and realise that

Queen is only pretty good early on, even though they had some great songs later on.

They have like 3 decent songs, you're the contrarian

They're decent. Nothing horrible, nothing incredible. Bohemian Rhapsody is a good song.

Freddie had a great stage presence; that's about the only thing that makes them special. He also furthered public perception of homosexuals, and brought attention to AIDS.

So yeah. Freddie was a cool dude, but Queen is basically just run of the mill dad rock.

Post the pasta now

>Everyone jizzes over Bohemian Rhapsody

>Nobody acknowledges The Prophet's Song as their most powerful song

It isn't fair.

>Here's the thing about Freddie. The man had some serious pipes. He had a 4 octave range and he excelled in any octave. He wrote brilliant songs. And his stage presence was only matched by Adolf Hitler. Seriously, watch them play Radio Gaga at Live Aid and then watch a video of the Nuremburg rallies. We had better thank our lucky stars Freddie didn't go into politics or he would have taken over the world. But Queen as a whole had a brilliant dynamic. It wasn't just the Freddie Mercury backup band. They all made huge creative contributions to what made Queen what it is. Yes, Freddie wrore Somebody to Love, Killer Queen, and Bohemian Rhapsody, but Brian May wrote We Will Rock You, Save Me, and Fat Bottom Girls, John Deacon wrote I Want to Break Free, Another One Bites the Dust, and You're my Best Friend, and Roger Taylor wrote Radio Gaga and It's a Kind of Magic. Other bands like Nirvana for instance were not like that. Nirvana was basically just the Kurt Cobain backup band. Queen was this perfect storm of legendary talent, and Freddie was the face of it all, the delicious cherry on top of an already delicious sundae. He was the ambassador that allowed the amazing talent of combo that was Queen to be brought into our lives. He was the prism that focused the lazer beams from the brains of Roger, Brian, and John, and amplified them until they were powerful enough to blow our minds out through our ear holes. Yes, he was the most incredible front man who ever lived, hands down.

When did you realise Roger Taylor is top trap material?

listen to my fairy king and tell me they weren't insanely musically talented compared to most of their contemporaries of similar fame

Just read this on the video for Bicycle Race:
>The video for the song was infamous for featuring 65 naked women, all professional models, racing at Wimbledon Greyhound Stadium. It was filmed by Denis de Vallance. The group rented the stadium and several dozen bikes for one day for filming the scene; however, when the renting company became aware of the way their bikes were used, they requested that the group purchase all the bicycle seats.
