Thats funny as hell, yet it rocks on all levels. Greatest Queen song EVA...makes me wanna watch Flash Gordon just for the hell of itKim _Kaphwan said:they should have done "bycicle" or "it's a hard life"..."bohemeian rhapsody" is like one of their worst songs, and yet that's what they're known for.
"bohemeian rhapsody" sucks, plain and simple. it's not that it's a bad song, or that it's badly written, it's that it's the only song queen is remembered for. when they had so many better songs:Lagduf said:Seriously get real, Bohemian Rhapsody is a great Queen song and this is coming from a Queen fanboy. You are right though Bohemian Rhapsody is what Queen is remembered a lot for (here in America especially). But to the point: the Bohemian Rhapsody video rules.
have you seen the flash gordon video? holy crap is that nerdy, yet it's soo cool.djdelly said:oh yah and Flash Gordon sound track f'ing rulzzz
i hate rush for the two drum kits they use.Nesagwa said:Just because its the only song they are known for doesnt mean it sucks.
Its over played, yes. But it is a great song.
Nobody hates Rush for the few songs they are known for......... nerd.

and countless other tunes, the fact is that queen has never really done a bad song at all, but they're known for only one song here, and it pisses me off.
well we will rock you is a good song, champions is just too...too seventies rock tapering on the edge of metal. and bohemian rhapsody isn't bad, just overplayed. and how could you say volume II of their greatest hits is crap? track listing for volume II:Crovax said:wow, you must live in a truly backwater place. I've never ever thought that Queen was only ever remembered for bohemian rhapsody. I suppose Wayne's World really helped bring that particular song back into the collective consciousness, but most people at least know that an "we will rock you" &"we are the champions."
I still have no idea where you get this idea that because something is played a lot, then it must suck. but then again, I also disagree quite strongly about queen never making a bad song. I got their greatest hits vol I&II for christmas one year, and IMO, virtually the entire volume 2 is utter crap. in any case, we've been over our vastly different musical taste before, so I'll end it here, but you're views on music never cease to amaze me.

if you think that those songs are crap, you just don't get queen at all.
i hate musicals as much as the next guy, but you have to admit that when you really listen to queen their lyircs have depth and a voice, they're not pointless and stupid like so many other bands their words have a real meaning, i love queen.Crovax said:I can admit to that. I read that Freddy Mercury often wrote songs as if he were writing a musical. Problem is that I despise musicals, sans a few exceptions. Naturally, I'd have problems with Queen's songwriting philosophy, and by extension a great deal of their songs.
"I work hard (he works hard) every dayof my life, I work till i ache my bones. At the end (at the end of the day) I take home my hard earned pay all on my own. I get down (down) on my knees (knees) And I start to pray Till the tears run down from my eyes Lord somebody (somebody), ooh somebody (Please) Can anybody find me somebody to love ?"VanillaThunder said:Finally, someone makes a flash on the internet that is funny, cool and original.
Man, that rocked my ass off. I hate crap like this, but I have to respect that. It was awesome.
Now, all they need to do is make one for "Somebody to Love"... which is by far the BEST queen song ever. Period.
