Why are you so sure that it won't happen. Brian said on his website that a new Queen album is not THAT unlikely at the moment. The have already some new stuff from the 46664 campaign.
"IMO, they should go on with their solo careers and forget about queen"
Ditto for me. Their solo albums have been awesome. Why can't we have a few more of those? They're going to turn Queen into the NWO of rock bands.
I don't think so!!! i'm not sure if it's just me but i feel that all the Queen songs that didn't have Freddie on vocals were lame.....it's not that they were bad but Freddie added something special to them..The Mercury Touch if you might say.
I don't care what they do - as long as we get some 'new' music, either in the form of new studio material or a tour. Either as solo artists or under the Queen name, I really don't care. Together they're great, but apart they're great too, so....
If they continue with crap like the musical and countless remakes of WWRY I'd rather see them retire and release the boxsets and enjoy the rest of their lives.
"It will not be like the same old Queen. But it wouldn't if Freddie was alive because they are older."
But it would still be Queen if Fred was still here, they would just have developed musically because Queen always went with the time. Queen in 1990 wasn't like Queen in the 70's. That's another thing, IMO.
But I think they should go on doing what they're doing now. Appearing on charity stuff, colaborate with other musicians (as long as it's not with Britney & Co.) but not release an album under the name Queen because there are 2 important people missing.
But I'd still support them, whatever they'll do because after all, it's their decision, it was their band and they must know what is good for them and what not.
They should do what they want. I personally doubt I'll care if they release anything new, and won't get myself worked up about it - if I like it, I'll listen to it, if not, it'll just sit in my collection.
Music is music, my dears.
You’re all very pessimistic. I saw Roger and Brian two years ago in Amsterdam (Queensday) and I followed the whole 46664 thing. And I think that Queen still rocks!!! But that’s my opinion.
“No they should buy Leeds United and save my beloved team from relegation.”
I have a better idea. Ajax needs a better striker… Ronaldo will be good enough.
"I don't think it's the same without all of Queen. They should just do solo stuff."
I agree. Brian and Roger are only 1/2 of Queen. And some of their solo stuff has been good.
