Too bad for you if he doesn't mention Freddie on every single Soapbox entry. I'm also sick of those who do nothing but whine about how much they miss Freddie, and yes I do agree that there's not one single day where we didn't wish he was still around... BUT PLEASE!! The guy has been dead for almost 17 years, don't you think it's time to let it go and move along??!!

Yes, and I stand by the fact that I revel in being stupid as opposed to whatever you are. You are really going to have to do better than that if you want to make me FEEL stupid, even. But to be honest, I don't think you have it in you.

It's not like the only band I like is Queen. I love a ton of other music, too. Queen is just my absolute favorite. I do have much interest in other things that exist thank you very much! Being obsessed with something isn't really that person's fault. I can't help but have such an extreme fascination for Queen. Almost everyone has some sort of obsession with something, whatever it is. Maybe you just don't get that same feeling.

He's one of the greatest rock idols and music legends to walk the earth, but will you please shut up for once and look at the big picture and realize that there was more to Queen than just Freddie.

However i have posted a few times saying that Brian is the man behind queen. Just listen to freddies solo album. Pop crap in general. Brian kept it heavy.

Believe it or not I do understand how you feel. We are all obsessed Queen fans in our own unique way, but there are those who choose to block out any other source of music. They need to open their horizons.

I explained this- the thing with Roger and us girls is that we think he was really hot in the 70s-80s years and he was!! Many girls thought so. He was very cute in his day, but now, he's not the same. now, he's old and I don't think about ohh he's so hot when I see him today. Oh, and we know that "he's not young anymore and he's never going to look that way again" Yeah we know, but we're just staing a fact about then and how much we'd love to meet him and all that. I don't know really how to explain it. It's just a girl thing.

I know what you mean. Allot of girls say the same about me, how how i look and all... yeah what can i say.... But hey, I only have eyes for you.

Sebastian wrote: Judging Freddie's input on the band based solely on 'Mr Bad Guy' is ridiculous: that's the sort of music he was writing at the time. A Freddie Mercury solo record ten years before would have been progressive rock. IMO they all contributed, and they were all fundamental. That's why IMO Roger + Freddie wouldn't be Queen, Roger + John wouldn't, Freddie + John wouldn't, Freddie + Brian wouldn't, Brian + John wouldn't and, of course, Roger + Brian aren't.

StormtrooperInStilettos wrote: Wow, when I first read the subject title, I was thinking, "Why the hell would this person post something like that on a Queen notice board?" But after reading your entry, I can't agree more. I adore Freddie (duh), but I wish people would realize that Queen was a group effort. Anyone who is a huge fan would know that that was exactly what they always tried to get across to people. Queen consisted of 4 equal parts, and I'm sure it bugged the crap out of them when fans and journalists refused to acknowledge all of their talents.

<font color=black>QUEEN OBSESSED wrote: I agree however I feel this way about the people obsessed with any one member as they can be frustrating in not recognizing the GROUP that was Queen. There are some who manage to be obsessed and still realize that there was more than one member contributing to the band, they are alright. :P

Cedric6014 wrote: ANYway, I think one of them actually said that Queen were greater than the sum of their parts. I have heard one of Freddie's solo albums and I own two of Rogers. They are all terrible. I haven't heard any of Brian's but I suspect that his are shite too. Okay musucianship, but no soul, no decent pop hooks - nothing for people to latch on to. If Freddie was the life and soul of Queen I would have thought that his solo efforts woud have done much better. Individually they are awesome, creative musicians, but it seems that they had some amazing chemistry as a band that really allowed them to produce fantiastic songs. I think that the "Sound of Queen" is not Freddie's vocals or Brians guitar, but perhapsthe vocal harmonies they produced - very distinctive, and relied on Roger Freddie and Brian. I think all four of them were critical to the success of Queen. And despite what someone said earlier about Freddie writing 10 out of 17 of their hits, I think they all had considerable input into each other's songs. I think almost all of their songs were a musical collaboration. I remember reading that Freddie said that whoever wrote the lyrics got the credit. They changed their minds about this in the late 80s when they realised that all four contributions were equally as important - hence the credit to "Queen". I better put in a word for John here: Freddie may have written Body Language, and Roger have written A Kind of Magic but John put down the baseline which MADE those songs.

Well, I do like to indulge every now in then. XD I did find a Queen one a while back; wasn't too thrilled about it because of all the explicit oral sex and whatnot. :P I like some slash fanfiction with a little classiness... and taste (No pun intended.) ;P However, I prefer Mulder and Krycek. Haha.. :P Feel free to send me the link though! xD

I agree about roger's solo stuff, but your missing out on some hidden gems with freddie and brian. The one album you should check out is Freddie's Barcelona CD, it's a brilliant mixture of pop and opera. One of the best albums I'v ever heard!... MY feeling towards Barcelona is the same way Sebastion feels about brian's back to the light... those are the two solo efforts every queen fan should check out.

BARCELONA! That album is great. I'm never ashamed to play that album in public, and I'm sure many Queen fans are.

FreddiesGhettoTrench wrote: I agree... It was the inner workings of all four of them which made Queen. I AM a Freddie fan, but one must admit that Queen wouldn't have been Queen without all four of them - something that IMO has become apparent with all of this Paul Rodgers business (nothing against the man, but IMO Queen's beauty was having four members from beginning to end - if you don't have all four members, just do solo tours or something). It's the work between them that made the band and it was the reliance and friendship that they had that kept them going in the late 80's early 90's when they could have easily thrown in the towel.

Perhaps you can help me here. I'm trying to think of a scenario that I would be placed in where I would be compelled to play any music in a public place. Maybe tomorrow, I'll walk into a crowded area in my neighborhood, sit down with a ghettoblaster, and play Barcelona from start to finish. Keep in mind this is northeast Philadelphia, so I'm bound to get some looks.
