I know he's had a few girlfriends, but I was wondering if Roger was a guy who lived with the idea of "Sex, drugs and Rock n' Roll." |

Good looking drummer in a famous Rock and Roll band. You really need to ask? |

Probably was. He seems to be the stupidest member of the band, by far. In terms of intellect. His songwriting wasn't too lovely either |

discosucks has a point, though he's far from dumb. And yes, he was definitely the worst songwriter in Queen. |
| angermair73 05.04.2015 10:19 |
I think he was the most (well maybe) interesting songwriter. It seems that he was the only one who kind of pulled Queen towards the trends in the musicworld. But when i look at it then i guess i liked Freddie and Brians songs the most. They were faboulus but pretty predictable sometimes. |

Freddie was the best songwriter in Queen, Brian probably the second, and John and Roger are a tie IMHO. But it's a matter of taste. I'm a worst songwriter than John and Roger, I don't consider me as stupid. And I guess that 100% of the members of this forum are worst songwriters than Roger. Are we a forum of stupid people, or is discosucks just a troll? |

I assume you are a big Queen fan, and I find it surprising that you are yet to figure out that Roger is a moron. |

He was smart enough to put "I'm In Love With My Car" on the B-side of "Bohemian Rhapsody", therefore receiving equal royalties to Freddie every time someone bought the single. He ended up buying a mansion before any of his bandmates. |

He has pretty strong views on a number of things, and he backs them up quite knowledgeably and thoughtfully. He's never struck me as unintelligent at all. |

Unless we've got access to IQ tests for all of them, we can't know. And even then, we could quibble that those tests aren't too accurate, etc. You could also make a case for any of them being allegedly cleverer or less clever than the rest of them. John was, after all, the financial brain of the band. He was also educated to a high level and managed to have a far higher hit to song ratio than any of his band-mates. Brian's the only one of them to have a PhD (unless, of course, John got one at some point and we just don't know it). But again it doesn't mean the other three wouldn't be able to, had they tried. Roger's been described as witty and clever. Clever is not just about being an astrophysicist or electrical engineer. A biologist/drummer can be just as, or even more, or less... it's not necessarily related. Same for a graphic designer / singer who couldn't drive but was an extraordinary musician. Then again, none of us (as far as I know) know any of them, other than their music and some unsubstantiated rumours spread by the press. Any judgement we pass has as many chances of being accurate as if I tried to establish a psychological profile of the man (or woman, or robot) who designed the computer screen I'm looking at, based on its dimensions, materials and settings. |

His answers are frustrating, but that's John I guess. At least he's honest when he doesn't know how to/doesn't want to answer the question. |

Is it real or made up? If it's real, it's amazing how he never commits to giving a particular viewpoint, and never elaborates at all. But then again, we do indeed expect that from Deacy. |

discosucks wrote: Probably was. He seems to be the stupidest member of the band, by far. In terms of intellect.Bit of a sweeping statement. He managed to get in to a decent university to do a degree in Biology, Presumably he needed some intellect for that. I've always thought he comes across as thoughtful and intelligent. He does however have a tendency to be very dismissive of things that don't interest him, which maybe how you came by your very different opinion. Or you are trolling, I cant decide which. So if it is a troll, well done, it's a good one because I responded. |

ggo1 wrote: He managed to get in to a decent university to do a degree in Biology, Presumably he needed some intellect for that.Yeah but discosucks didn't say 'Roger has no intellect'. It was only implied that the others' intellect is far superior than his (I'm not saying I agree or disagree with that, by the way). A 6 ft man can be the shortest member of a basketball team and that doesn't make him a dwarf. Freddie himself wasn't a dwarf but he was the shortest band member in terms of height. John Deacon's not a baby but he's the youngest Queen member. Roger Taylor's not fat, let alone obese, but he was possibly the band's heaviest member, at least at some point. So, it's entirely possible that the four Queenies are clever enough that whoever 'the band's stupidest member, in terms of intellect' is/was, he's still intelligent enough to have received a degree in biology, maths and physics, engineering or graphic design. |
| BETA215 18.04.2015 03:39 |
My gosh, that was a painful read. I mean, the most time his answers were 'I don't know', 'No', 'I didn't thought about it earlier', 'No', 'Nothing', 'Maybe', 'No', 'No', etc., 'No'. |
| Pink Ice 26.04.2015 21:51 |
Good grief, John's answers were as dull as dishwater. He might as well have just not answered the questions, as that would be less frustrating than what I read above. I was also disappointed by his answer to "What video did you have the most fun filming?" And he said "None of them". One of the reasons I love the video to "Breakthru" is that John looks so happy and appears to really be enjoying himself...but he wasn't? That's a bummer :( |
