I am a huge Queen fan like everyone is here BUT some clown who goes by the name of Your Worst Nightmare disrespects Queen in a eral offensive way. He previously went by the name Cranky Reviewer before I filed enough emails to Amazon to ban the guy but he keeps coming back supposedly he saves his reviews and I wish I could find his email address and send him a virus! This fool thinks Duran Duran were the originators of rock. Duran Duran to me were a poor David Bowie meets Roxy Music facsimile. He writes counter reviews to every album I positively review and this war with this guy has been going on for almost two years! Here are the Queen reviews that the demented Your Worst Nightmare wrote, beware some are offensive taking shots at the great Freddie! here was his review for the first Queen album: Queen aren't rock and roll royalty; Duran Duran is, November 23, 2004 It is delusional to suggest that Queen is the roaylty of rock. That would be an insult to legends Duran Duran, who have sold 70 million albums worldwide and were Princess Diana's favorite group. Queen is so bad, that they can't even find a new lead singer after Freddie Mercury passed away. AC/DC did it, so why can't these bozos? Anyway, it's bad. One star. Sheer Heart Attack: Freddie the bucktoothed dragon, November 25, 2004 Reviewer: Your Worst Nightmare "A Classic Rock Lover's Worst Nightmare" - See all my reviews Freddie Mercury was a bucktoothed wanker with ZERO talent and NO shame. In the 1980s, Queen performed in then-apartheid South Africa. That shows what little concern they had for the social turmoil that country was going through. But what's more, Freddie Mercury was a total bore. He had a hideous overbite; oversang every word of every lyric; and got booed off the stage at Wembley so many times. This CD is atrocious. Who, in 2004, likes Queen? Nobody! Avoid. ANATO: Another album from the socially irresponsible Queen, November 26, 2004 Queen is fronted by an ugly bucktoothed freak Freddie Mercury, who had enough lovers to make Elizabeth Taylor look chaste. This CD is a nightmare of rock and roll cliches and other forms of stupidity. This may offend Queen fans, but it's the truth. And the truth hurts. Deal with it. The Game: "Game" over, November 23, 2004 Lame album from a lame band. One song is called "Don't Try Suicide," which you might end up doing if you listen to even five minutes of this gutter trash. FG Sdtk: No!, November 25, 2004 Flop album from a flop movie. Both the band and the movie are 1980s artifacts. Pass. Greatest Hits: Lame album from a band that got rich on apartheid dollars, November 26, 2004 Queen, in a gross display of insensitivity, performed in then-aparthied South Africa in 1984. Blood was being shed and lives were lost while these bozos performed their "hits" on a stage. It was the most disgraceful rock and roll scandal of the 1980s. Do you really want to support a band that got rich off aparthied dollars? Do you want to reward a band that's indifferent about the social turmoil that took place in South Africa? For the love of all that is decent, I beg you NOT to get this or any other album by Queen. HS: Rightfully neglected Queen album, November 23, 2004 The hit single off this dud is "Body Language," which steals the title from Kylie's 2004 multiplatinum smash album. That song isn't as good as anything by Kylie, and it's painful to listem to. Face it: Queen is so marginally talented, that they couldn't get a new lead singer after Freddie Mercury passed away (tragically). AC/DC had NO problem getting Brian Johnson when Bon Scott passed away, so why can't Queen? Because Queen is overrated. Truth hurts. The Works: Yawn, November 25, 2004 "I want to break free" from Queen and their music. Lots of production but no substance. One star. AKoM: Atrocious, November 25, 2004 More garbage from that bucktoothed freak Freddie Me |

Well, we can think he is an ignorant twat all we want....because he is. But then again.... He is just another person with another view and another stance that differs from ours. I mean, I think Queen were musical geniuses, as do all of the people here. But you can't expect all people to like them, regardless of their lame, immature backlashes that make no sense. I understand you.... But not all people can be understood. Cheers. |

LadyMoonshineDown said it perfectly. Even if this reviewer has taken a completely ignorant stance to reviewing the albums, it's his loss, not ours. But it's amazing what kind of pathetic insults that guy can come up with. I mean, even if you don't like Queen, it's impossible to say that they didn't have talent, especially for reasons like they stole the title of Body Language from Kylie Minogue or that Freddie was bucktoothed. |

He counters my reviews because people love my reviews! |

Hm! Amazon.com should watch for things of that nature and edit the responses because if a novice to Queen's music read some of those reviews, they could take them to heart and not buy the CDs -- and go somewhere else and buy them!

Forget him. If he wishes to be an asshole of many sorts, then let him. Obviously if people love your reviews, then there is no sense in trying to rid of one stupid cunt who likes opposition. And to be childish about it and make fun of someones name obviously gives way to his lack of intelligence. So forget him and don't worry about it. He's probably some 40 year old fat/bald guy who lives in his parents basement and stays on the computer all day trying to think up of good snappy remarks to make himself forget how much of a loser he is in the real world. I wouldn't worry about it. *And to gunpowder gelatine: That pepsi commercial makes me want to puke. In fact, I'd rather swallow up my own vommit then watch that commercial, lol.* |

For your information man, I am autistic(I have a form of it called Aspergers Syndrome(read about it at link and I can't work because I am being paid what they called Social Supplementary Income by the United States government due to my disability which I have had since I was 3 when it was just called Autism(Aspergers Syndrome was not a known type of Autism until 1997, I was re-diagnosed with Aspergers in 1999 when I was 23). If I were working and collecting Social Supplementary Income simultaneously, I would be arrested and put in jail(trust me on this one, OK)! It is illegal to work a paying job and collect Social Supplementary Income at the same time, in other words I'd be in prison for years! Also, I haven't had a girlfriend since I was 13 because I got turned down due to music taste, being in school band and lived a clean living life! Ease up! |
FairyQueen 26.11.2004 17:02 |
Even though this person has their right to their opinion, I think he was just a bit too harsh on Queen. No insult to Duran Duran, they're great but, I think Queen had better traditional rock songs. Their songs are timeless. Duran Duran songs on the other hand, are very 80s but great nonetheless. I just thought maybe that Amazon reviewer was having a very bad day. It would be funny if he was an actual Queen fan and wrote that to make some people fume. It's just a theory. |
LadyMoonshineDown 26.11.2004 17:07 |
Bah. I hate his posts just as much as everyone else on here, I'm sure. But he has his own opinions.....despite how harsh they are. And if anyone of you have ever posted something rotten about another band, or an opinion about an artist you didn't like, then you have no right to say he was 'out of line.' Hey, I admit I have posted my opinions on such bands like The Darkness and etc.... But I won't go around trying to get people booted off. They are stupid; yes. But they are human as well. Bah. cheers. p.s. I'm trying to side with you because I love Queen (duh, I wouldn't be here if I wasn't). But don't go around trying to say someone elses free speech should be banned because it does not align with your opinions. |

Oh come on. I also love his posts. First of all, if he hates those albums so much, why does he listen to them? Maybe his girl is in love with Roger and he is jealous? I also first thought of Fatty being the creator of those posts... Also, if you really have a fight with him on Amazon, I think it is great publicity for Queen. Maybe some neutral people read these posts and want to make up their own minds and hence buy the albums... I like the fact that there are many people out there who hate Queen. I would not want to listen to them so much if it was considered mainstream. In my life so far, I have met about five people who also like Queen. The rest don't understand my avid devotion... Geez, that has to make me feel special. |

Queen have surely sold more than Duran Duran. .4. Queen are the most popular band worldwide apart from The Beatles. (Including U.S. Even though Queen arent massive there nowadays, the worldwide popularity makes up the numbers). .5. When did Freddie get booed of the stage again? Oh wait, that didn't happen. .6. Petty insult alert: This guy obviously has very little genetaillia (although evidentally alot of balls). And should this continue I think we should officially wage war on all Duranians. Somebody needs to inform Brian, he will have something to say... And should he give us the nod to go forth into the dreary world of war then surely We Would Rock Them, for We Are The Champions.

I'm sure if Freddie Mercury were alive he would absolutely adore the Viagra commercials with We Are The Champions, they are hilarious.

My point is that we blast Britney (for good reason) often enough, and if some Queen fan just happened (very doubtful - Queen fans have good taste) to like Britney (dare I say it) just a little bit more than Queen, and they decided to stick up for that talentless blonde bitch candy-ass whore, then we'd bomb him/her right out of the water.

Actually I have been a fan of his reviews for quite some time :) He sounds like a big Queen fan to me. He also makes fun of the stupid things reviewers in the past have said trashing Queen (focusing on silly non-musical things like Freddie's teeth, etc.). He makes fun of how bad AC/DC's singers are, and how they can be easily replaced while Freddie can't. I think he may have given up his satire for The Game and Flash Gordon though and directly said what some Queen fans think about those. :) But a non-Queen fan wouldn't have heard all those albums. ;) Great Echoes quote by the way! |

I can only take jokes as far as it can go! Once he kept repeating them and made fun of me OVER and OVER and OVER, I don't like him anymore!

How is calling you Terri an insult, Terri? Surely calling you an utter retard would be an insult (if anybody could be so insensitive as to do so). Alternatively, calling you an oversensitive idiot who blames everything that they do on some condition that was only invented in the last ten years by a bunch of sociologists so that stupid kids wouldn't feel so bad about themselves could be seen as fair comment. |
mystic_rhythms 28.11.2004 14:47 |
I know I'm a little late on this (I usually am lol) but I just want to agree with all of you. This little prick has no knowledge of the extravanganza that is Queen. Simply put: This guy knows nothing. Allow me to demonstrate: He does not know that Bohemian Rhapsody has been voted countless times as the best song of all time (in the UK and other countries, and sometimes in the US). He does not know that Queen has sold out nearly every concert they performed at in the 70's and 80's (Wembley, Milton Keynes, Rock In Rio, Knebworth, Hammersmith, to name a few) He does not know that Queen is, as a few of you have pointed out, the second most popular band of all time (behind The Beatles, of course). He does not know that Queen's first Greatest Hits collection in 1981 stayed on the UK charts for over 5 years (and the second GH didn't do too bad either) He does not know that Freddie Mercury, the so-called "bucktoothed freak", has been seen as one of the greatest frontmen of all time, even in the eyes of other frontmen (Bret Michaels of Poison, Axl Rose of the former Guns N' Roses, etc.) But most importantly... He does not know that there are millions and millions of fans worldwide (and hundreds here on this very board) that are die-hard fans of Queen and will forever be fans until the end of time! Someone should really kick his ass. He's a big disgrace, waving his banner all over the place. ;) |

Aspergers was not around in 1979. The reviewer called me a retard in the past! Being insensitive and obnoxious used to get me in trouble so being sensitive and caring is more important IMHO! The name Terri sounded too feminine to me(always has and still does but c'est la vie) and I actually once violently attacked a resource room teacher for calling me Terri one day after they kept calling me that day in and day out! My family and friends have always called me Terrence(still do although I have some flattering and funny nicknames(which I smile and chuckle over) like Screwface, Scoance, Crazy Nut, Dewey(after long retired Boston Red Sox outfielder Dwight Evans), Schmoo(after a ghostly blob on The Flintstones) and such) but this teacher I had was initially a jerk so one day I went crazy and the school was threatening to kick me out(I was 8 when this happened) until my parents came in and explained that the teachers knew nada about autism and was always called Terrence. Then after the meeting, the teacher called me Terrence from that point forward and the resource room teacher and I got along better in later years. As long as I can keep myself happy, my Aspergers is not evident BUT when angered and provoked the symptoms of autism come out(I have paper work for proof!) Better to come clean than hide things from people and look at you or read you off as odd! Sorry people, I know I have to monitor my condition with love, peace and happiness and my parents refused for me to be on medications because in actuality, meds worsen the condition! Well, I do have a sense of humor but can only take jokes as far is it can go! |

Oh, it's all a load of pish. Come on, this person-if you would indeed call it that- is obviously an idiot wwith way too much time on its hands. If it really hated Queen so much, it sould not have listened to all of these albums. Plus the reviews just restate themselves. Don't take someone who likes Britney Spears so seriously, people. We know that Queen is one of the best, if not the best band to walk the earth. |

I feel sorry for the guy. He was booted away for opinions. Why? Because some people were very sensitive. I thought it was a place of free speech and opinion. Was I wrong? Well...I'm sure that guy, whoever he was, felt utterly wrong when he realized he was kicked off. God damn....I love Queen. You love Queen. We all love Queen. If you get offended by real world opinions, then why don't you just stay here where you won't have to worry about comments like that? By the way...this is QUEENZONE! The name should give it away that we people here won't have lame comments disregarding yours. Sheesh. Someone please find me the fucking tylenol...this is giving me a headache. Cheers |

I'm not having this self-pitying shite again. Mr Terrance, you were right. Death to all Duran Duran fans, especially on Amazon. And you should sue the US government for not discovering Asperger's before you were born. Ask them to buy you a DVD player, it worked for our other poor unfortunate. |
KingMercury 28.11.2004 20:36 |
this guy dont deserve our atention he is just a fuckin'idiot you have to be an idiot to trash queen and say britney spears is the greatest female singer. |
LadyMoonshineDown 28.11.2004 20:45 |
You would have to be an idiot to go through so much trouble.... Cheers |
sheerheartattack1980 28.11.2004 22:57 |
has this tool seen what the members of duran duran look like lately??!!! What nerve. |

Um hello the review was satire...the Amazon reviewer DOES LIKE Queen (and DOESN'T like Britney, Duran) so why are we still talking about this?!? :) Anyway he has just posted another funny review for the Live-Aid DVD under the new name of The Heretic: "19 years later, everybody is still talking about how Simon LeBon and Nick Rhodes completely ROCKED the crowd! Jimmy Page and Robert Plant are on this DVD, too, but nobody really paid attention to them perform, anyway." Yeah right! :) Oh I just found another one that mentions Queen actually...it's for Pink Floyd's "Animals": "Could this really be Stink Floyd's 12th album? I doubt that very much. But that's not the point. The point is that record smells. Overrated music from an overrated band. They didn't know it, but Gilmour was secretly plotting to leave the group to join DuranDuran. He finally got his wish when he hooked up with Simon LeBon and Nick Rhodes to form that amazing supergroup Arcadia. Get their 1985 avant garde classic "So Red the Rose" and avoid anything by Pink Floyd, the Police, Rush, the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and especially Queen." I just can't stop laughing :) I'm going through reading all his reviews now. I've never seen anyone with such disdain for Duran Duran...he seems to work them into almost every review. |

WHAT AN EFF-WIT!!! he deserves to be shot!!! in the heart! im not saying this because im a queen fan, im saying this because queen were and still are obviously good if they've manage to be Britains second greatest band (straight after the beatles) and have the number one song of all time!!! this guy cant call himself a reviewer! a reviewer gives his opinion, but cannot (if i am correct) tell people what to believe!!! its their choice! i'd like to meet this guy one day...lets see how many teeth he has left once im through with him! |
Journeyfan05 29.11.2004 08:18 |
for someone that hates Queen, he sure does seem to know a lot about them |

I think John Deacon is writing these reviews to heckle people. |
The Fairy King 29.11.2004 12:11 |
Here a poor attempt of reviewing the Muse album "Absolution" :( The album is brilliant, it's obvious the guy didn't listen and the comparisations with Queen are just too ridiculous. link |
Krizzy 29.11.2004 12:32 |
LOL! Assholes like this guy on Amazon make me LMAO! Confidentially I think its John Deacon as well! John... you rebel rouser! Kriz ;o) |
rachael mae. 29.11.2004 12:41 |
Heh! I'm kinda amazed at you guys thinkin it was John. LMAO. This guy doesn't really deserve our attention. He has no idea what he's talkin bout but I think he's just doing it to enrage us Queen fans. |
the oppositionist 29.11.2004 20:12 |
what a loser! mate, id say change your account there and avoid the fucker. hes clearly full of shit. im sorry, but not even a real anti queenie could compare queen to duran duran. i couldnt name you a single song they did!!! the thing with morons like this who think greenday invented rock and think the beatles are a type of car are just sad losers who always want to be right. they are better left to shovel themselves into unpopularity |

Also, the reviewer had about many aliases before they were banned(Cranky Reviewer, Mr Cranky, Agitated Reviewer, Cranky's Back, Cranky's Revenge) and now goes by Your Worst Nightmare, The Heretic and Terri Reardon's Ex-Boyfriend(an obvious cheapshot at me calling me retard, bigot and racist when in fact I am not) and his reviews are old and tired. He has done these review things for two years and like all jokes, they get old and unfunny. |
iGSM 01.12.2004 03:46 |
That was the worst review I've ever seen. What the hell does it all mean? It's not even a review! Shit! That's what it is! |
Penetration_Guru 01.12.2004 03:59 |
You may be no racist or retard, but having his posts removed because you disagree with them is the mark of a fascist, which must be a form of bigotry. And if he's your ex boyfriend, then it all becomes more clear. It's upsetting when someone we love treats us badly. I assume he ended it? |

If so, the cranky reviews are old and need to retire because many reviewers are bored with them reviews as they are on the Henry McPruter and what not. People do misconstrue those one star reviews when they go to look for new music to buy at Amazon and want honest reviews on things so they may or may not be interested in them. All of my reviews are truthful and honest. I at first found the crank reviews funny but, like everything in this life, it get old. I have a different view on humor than other people(for example I still watch Looney Tunes because those cartoons are timeless and the gags are classic). I just got offended when the Crankmeister called me retard(as I do have a disorder/disability) then Terri which is offending to me. I am not hard to get along with but when one acts like an immature teeny bopper, I do not tolerate it. The Cranky Reviewer aliases and its reviews got old and boring. They were amusing at first but like everything it gets worn out. I am not bemoaning about it but I am stating the facts! Also FYI Penetration, I am hetero and like women and get irked when people call me gay! |
Simmer 01.12.2004 16:24 |
LOL... what a fool! By the way, he knows that Queen were great. He just can't stand it so tries to put them down. |
