i know, i said i would never write in this forum again, but i couldn't leave without telling the facts, i'v been away for sometime and the first topic i read is how the works, magic, and the miracle are utter crap, and the cross are better than led zep and 80's queen. is this how all queen fans are? could i have been wrong about how great queen were? i never questioned myself before i joined this site, i also belong to a judas priest site and their supportive of priest worst efforts, saying it's not as good, they don't say garbege and utter crap. i joined this site to chat with queen fans, istead what i got was cry babies, crying about every fucking album. the only shit and utter crap there is, are the people in this site, yea, the so called queen fans, who now i realize are the worst fans on the planet, and by the way this excludes a few queen fan gems on this site, that's Serry funster, Sebastian, ladymoonshinedown, and march of the dirt queen, keep the queen faith. |

I have said it on other messages but i totally agree!! i would never slag off queen ever. thank you for the message i hope it makes a difference |
| Gunpowder Gelatine 10.01.2005 23:17 |
I honestly hate saying I hate a song or an album, especially one by my favorite band. Like for example, I don't like Dancer and I find a few songs on The Miracle to be filler. But I'm not going to call them crap since there's still redeeming factors, like Freddie's vocals or one of Brian's guitar solos. They may not be amazing songs, but I reserve garbage for artists like Hilary Duff or Ashlee Simpson. |
| Lester Burnham 10.01.2005 23:35 |
Must be fun looking through the world in rose-tinted glasses. The thing is that you can only praise something so many times before it gets repetitive. I can honestly say I love the first six albums, but just because we don't like a particular album or song doesn't mean we hate Queen. Although I must admit that liking everything by one band and being ignorant to other peoples' opinions is just plain stupid. Nobody's perfect - not Queen, and certainly not their fans. Even the other band members have said negative things about their songs over the years - why should we not be allowed to say as such? |

That's my job, you sweaty knacker.Just wondered if you've ever listened to albums like Stained Class or Sad Wings of Destiny. In the same way that Queen should not be judged by I Want To Break Free and Radio GaGa, dont judge Judas Priest by Living After Midnight. |
| Flashman 11.01.2005 03:10 |
On the contrary, I couldn't name you a single Judas Priest song. My argument is based on obstinate bigotry. |
| mike hunt 11.01.2005 03:55 |
yes i have heard stained class and sad wings, both are great albums, i personally never seen a site like this one, that's all this site does is put down everything brian and roger do, everything queen have done past 1977, you don't see this on other forums, like the priest, and maiden, most great bands, there's nothing wrong with having opinions about albums, like hot space isn't their best, the works is good, but not great, party is weak opening track for the miracle album, ect. utter crap and shit those are queen fans favorite used words, it's not once or twice people, it's all the time. do me a favor visit the priest site, there's all different opinions but you get alot of respect for their band, their new song "revolution" isn't priest best song, but their fans still like it, and you don't hear words utter crap to describe it, or any priest music. i never heard a who fan talk about their band like that, to me, this is by far the worst fucking site i'v ever seen. i know some of you are very young, but the older ones who loved queen when they were 14 years of age, but not being a big fan for years has something to do with it. the worst thing a queen fan could do is come to this site expecting to hear from queen fans, cos that's all they will get is non sense, from people who nothing about the music of queen |
| Bob The Shrek 11.01.2005 04:25 |
Most Queen fans would have a heart attack if I listed all the songs that I didn't really like or skipped, but that's just me, what I like and what I don't like. I could give two shits about what other people think - I bought these albums for my entertainment and if they don't work for me, I will say so. It's my opinion, I am not trying to change everyone else's, just telling it how it is. If you can't handle that, then that your problem. We are lucky on this site that we have the freedom to express negative opinions without fear of posts being deleted. ps Hot Space is fucking crap. |
| Mr. Scully 11.01.2005 04:48 |
mike hunt - I don't know if you noticed but you're not complaining about a site. You're (or should be!) complaining purely about a content of a fan forum - and the content as is good or as bad as the fans are. Yes, the forum is currently full of idiots and stupid posts - but whom to blame? That's freedom of speech. |
| foxxy_moron 11.01.2005 05:00 |
yes and i disagree beacause i think hot space is fab... but im not going to get shitty bout it. |
| mike hunt 11.01.2005 09:30 |
i'm only half serious with this, in one way i love getting the people in this forum worked up by talking non sense, but on another note, i do get annoyed by some of the fans on this site, like who's nose is bigger john or brians? give me a break. i think people forget how great queen really were, they put out alot of great music in the eighties, the works has 4 top 40 hits, plus "keep passing the open windows" and "is this the world we created" that's alot of good songs on one album, therefore you can't say the album is total crap, but we are talking about queenzone, and in this site alot of their albums are considered less than good. on the other hand, my priest fans love their band, even their lesser material, but what can i say. |

| mike hunt 11.01.2005 14:48 |
please, lester is a joke, yea he's a fan, the man who said, "a night at the opera" and sheer heart attack" were way overated, and only liked "news of the world" all a sudden he says he likes the first six, where did that come from? the fact is, this forum is a joke, i think the site queenzone is fine, but the fan forum is a disgrace, i enjoy chatting on other sites about certain musicians or bands, take tori amos, yea the gifted pianist and singer, try her forum and see what her fans have to say about her music. i don't think utter crap would come out of their mouth, Why? cos their fans that's why. only this site makes me cringe, when i joined this site i honestly thought that there was going to be real queen fans here, like on the judas priest sites and tori amos, the who and many more, but what i got was complaining, brian and roger are old, like it's a crime to get old, oh robbie stinkin williams would steal the limelight from queen if they played together, escuse me but, this is not a robbie stinkin williams site, i know this may be a shock to the teenager teeny boppers, but queen and paul rodgers are rock legends, just like the who, led zep and hendrix, robbie stinkin williams is a teeny bopper joke, who doesn't belong on the same stage as queen, john deacon said right and the legend david bowie also said that robbies a joke, and is also this forum. |
| crossrog 11.01.2005 15:15 |
The world doesn't need fans who likes and loves anything the band ever did. That's just rubbish and can't be true for some reason. Let there be fans who like the early Queen. Let there be fans who like the late Queen. And let there some who likes stuff from the beginning to now. So what? Just because someone says he doesn't like particular songs/albums or even don't want Bri & Rog to go on with the Queen-show does not make him a worse fan. Pure crap. To me, Mad:Bad is my fav album from Queen & related. There is no better record. Though I call myself a Queen-fan (whatever this might be). You guys just have to get in your minds that people are not alike and that there are differences. That's all. If you can't get along with it fly up to Mars and create your own (Queen)land. |
| BrianRules 11.01.2005 15:38 |
I'll agree that there are some very nasty people on this site. Some people seem to just want to start trouble around here, and are doing a good job of it. Between the constant stupid questions being asked, and the bickering and nastiness between some of the "fans", this forum isn't as fun as it used to be. Obviously, everything Queen ever did isn't perfect, but it seems to me that they came the closest to it for my money!! |
| mike hunt 11.01.2005 17:03 |
i'm not here to say queen were perfect, and you have to love everything they did, but come on people you must admit this forum is a joke,a so called fan said the cross were better than queen and led zep and he wasn't joking either. a disgrace are some of the people on this site, sorry but that's the way i see it. you must have the wrong drummer from priest, that guy hasn't been in the band since 1988, at least priest fans know their music, that's more than i can say for queen fans on this site anyway. |
| Penetration_Guru 11.01.2005 17:19 |

| newcastle 86! 16483 11.01.2005 18:06 |
well theres blinkered and theres blinkered! everyone no matter how young or old or however long theyve been a fan can have an opinion of a song. i think its very healthy to say what you feel i mean roger taylor hates hard life,scandal, and im sure mant more but at least hes honest! like inm sure 99% of the fans in here its all about opinion and opinion makes life oh so more interesting dont you think? ps judas priest stink! lol |
| Lester Burnham 11.01.2005 18:46 |
Ah, very ironic, being called a joke when the name "mike hunt" is a pathetic excuse for a joke that is uttered by naughty third graders hoping to get a cheap laugh, but once said a second time loses all traces of humor - much like the actual user who goes by the same name. I should mention that I don't recall exactly saying "A Night At The Opera" and "Sheer Heart Attack" are overrated, but I will say it now. Yes, I find them overrated, but that doesn't mean I don't think they're classics. I stand by my assertion that the first six albums are damn near perfection, even though I also believe that "Opera" and "Sheer Heart Attack" are overrated. The music presented on those albums are excellent, but give me "Queen II" and "A Day At The Races" over "Opera" and "Sheer Heart Attack" any day. That said, I really think some people should realize that mike's little outburst really is uncalled for. I thought I explained it fairly well, and just because a little cunt - sorry, mike hunt fails to see things another way is absurd. Instead of writing a huge rant over one person's ill-planned thoughts - I still don't see how Queenzone is the worst site of all times merely because the users happen to say they don't like a certain song or album - I instead paraphrase a quote I said in my initial post: even the band members had negative things to say about their music, so why should we not be allowed to criticize? Then again, I'm sure if we had things mike's way - who, by the way, I've never seen contribute anything worthwhile - we'd all be singing the praises of 'Party', 'Body Language', and 'Fun It', while ostracizing those who DARE go against our own opinions. How's that for being a joke? |
| Bob The Shrek 11.01.2005 20:17 |
Okay - heart attack time. To prove what a terrible Queen fan I am, I have counted all the tracks from the studio albums (including Flash Gordon) that I either hate with a passion, don't like or just generally skip when I play them. The final figure is: 67!!!! I can't be arsed to type them all out tonight, maybe I will edit them in here tomorrow. |

Aw,Mike.QZ is my favourite queen site.Queen is my favourite band,they rock.But you know,hard rock is not really my favourite kind of music.I like nu metal like Linkin Park or Limp Bizkit.That's why I don't really like Made In Heaven or later Queen albums 'cuz they sound popish to me.But I'm not saying that later Queen albums are bad or dreadful.Queen is like a door that took me into rock music.I'm a Queen fan. MR. HAHN ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| mateuspaes 12.01.2005 12:39 |
ain't this a hell of a stupid discussion? What da fuck is wrong with this Mike Hunt? Opinions are like asses pal, everyone's got one. Of course some are laughable, like that guy who said that the cross is better the zep and 80's Queen, but hey, at least it me made laugh. Of course there are Queen songs that are pathetic, but that's what's great about the band, they always took chances. Those guys went everywhere man,from heavy metal to fuckin hip-hop, disco whatever. 70% of the time the result was great, the other 30% was kind of ridiculous, but then again, at least we can laugh a little. The main idea is not to take Queen so seriously cause not even they did it. Cheers everyone |
| deleted user 12.01.2005 13:18 |
I have to agree that even since I started coming on here this site seems to have got less and less friendly. I can hardly be bothered to come on anymore. The only posts worth reading are ones written months ago. What has happened? There are plenty of lovely Queen fans on here, but not enough. |
| mike hunt 12.01.2005 14:19 |
thank you "dirt queen", you rule, and black queen is possibly my favorite queen tune ever, keep the queen faith. like i said i'm only half serious, i love to get these people going, but at the same time i think some fans in this forum are a joke, and i'll stand by that. to lester i must say how can "heart attack" and "opera" be overated when these albums never get mentioned by non queen fans as great, or rarely mentioned, so what your saying is you don't think there very good because they are rarely mentioned as it is. both those albums along with "races" and queen2" should be mentioned with the all time greats, but none get the respect it should get. |
| i'm going slight mad... 12.01.2005 16:06 |
i would just like to say that there is a difference between something that's crap and something you don't nessecarily (sp?) like. people use them both as one and the same sometimes. when someone says that something is crap, generally they don't actually mean that it is actually crap, they just don't like it. most people don't know whether a song is crap or not cos they don't know the first thing about music theory, or song structure etc... so the fact that people have said that something by queen is crap, isn't cause to take offence. they probably just don't like it. |
| mike hunt 12.01.2005 19:53 |
that's my point, it's imposible to like every single song from a band who were together for so long, but who the hell do these people think they are saying most eighties queen was utter crap, the way i see it is 70's queen was brilliant(that includes jazz) and the eighties was good, agreed not on the level as their 70's work, but still good, not crap by any means. for those who like 80's queen better than 70's, god bless ya, at least you could think on your own, that's more than i could say for most in this forum. |

still doesn't make much sense, how can an album be overated when it's rarely mentioned as a great album, zep 4 and even guns and roses, bon jovi albums gets metioned before "opera" and "Heart attack" so how are those albums overated, lester, my boy your a joke. |

| WAR 13.01.2005 04:03 |
I just discoverd this site a couple months ago and just joined to be able to post in the fourm. While reading this thread, had me with mixed emotions. One being the fact that (in my eyes) the fact that almost no two queen albums sounded alike is what makes them great. They have an incredible amount of albums and were together for 20 years, yet most of them sound nothing like the other. So of course this is going to attract many diffrent people. People are going to like Queen for diffrent reasons. I mean, wasn't Dragon Attack or Another one Bites the Dust a huge hit on a rap station when it came out until the station saw they were a white group? Just one example. But, on the other hand, I agree with Mike. A. he got everyone here to post and turned out a 3 page response. If that's not fun, then what is? B. For the one who said "I don't care" what a piece of crap like you says or something to that affect. Then why do you keep checking back and responding to what he says? Anywho, my friends like a couple Queen songs, gets into a few of them, but for the most part says that he can't understand how I love them because they sound like commercial music. But that is the differance between him and I. I'm a fan of Queen, he just enjoys some of their music. Bands like Green Day, I like a bunch of their songs, but I don't consider myself a fan. I think what Mike is trying to say is that there are more people who just like some of their songs then are actual fans. Now I'm sure this will get me made fun of or whatever, but if you stop and think about it, there is a differance between liking the music and being a fan. Well, that's all I really have to say right now. And for the record, I'm a 23 yr old male who has been a fan for about nine years (since I was fourteen). |
| WAR 13.01.2005 04:42 |
Well said Hero!!! Face it, Queen is awesome, and all these people's reasons why are just showing that. I for one love all of their albums and think Party is a great opener, the drums kick, the vocals are fun, great topic, and great lead in to the second song. But that's just me. As long as we can respect each others opinions, freedom of speech rules. |

I agree! This site is crap. the kids here have no more than one or two greatets hits album and don´t know nothing about the group queen or the four members of the group. Buy all records and listen to all songs at least in ten years time, then you can talk about the records. |
| WAR 13.01.2005 05:52 |
Hey, I'm a kid and haven't listened to them for ten years yet and I can go the distance talking to anyone about them. I love them. I have all of their albums and even their solo albums. Took me over a year to try and get a copy of Mr. Bad Guy but I actually got it. That was a funny story. I even listen to barcalona once in awhile. It's all good stuff to me. You can't judge people on their age or how long they have listened to it. It all depends on what the music means to them... |

Nah, I'm only half playing. I know what you mean. It's like you wanna come here and have fun. We get made fun of during the day for liking Queen. I know I did in high school but wore my shirts proudly!!! We just wanna come here and discuss them with real fans but you get some people on here who keep going on about how they suck. But of course, that's not to say that liking every single song is the only way to become a fan. But, not telling you guys what to do, if you go I don't like "insert song here" because they did this and I'm not a fan of that music. That's cool, it's being respectful. If you go "insert song here" sucks big fat hairy monkey balls, it's crap, I've pooped out better sounding things than that, that is just disrespectful and if you are a fan, you wouldn't disrespect them. Unless of course you are a Metallica fan, but that's a WHOLE OTHER issue. |
| mateuspaes 13.01.2005 08:12 |
what's metallica got do do with anything my friend? when you're a fan you feel as if you're part of the band, and you get mad when they do something that you don't like. You don't have to like everything queen does, im pretty sure there's stuff that brian hates, that roger hates and that john hates |
| WAR 13.01.2005 08:15 |

i think "war" has got the right idea, perfectly said, that is my point, i feel there's people on this forum who like some songs from queen but arn't true fans, there is a difference. it's true, what makes queen so special is they could rock you one minute (stone cold crazy) then do "love of my life", who the hell had that talent, in the eighties "magic" and "radio ga ga" are total pop and did a great job at it, simply is amazing, and by the way, Mr. lester don't take offence, it's all in good fun. |
| sl1ppy 13.01.2005 15:17 |
Why dont you elitist "real fans" go and create your own forum for "real fans" You could have a set of questions to gague "real fan" knowledge before you allow new members. You would never have to tolerate a bad word said about Queen again. Or moronic newbie questions for that matter. No one to upset you , just "Real Fans" just like you. In other words....if you dont like it.....F**k Off. Queen have sold millions of albums to all types of people. There music is being discovered by new people all the time. Young and old. Clever and stupid. Is it really that suprising that all sorts of people turn up here , asking all sorts of questions ? No its not. |

oh and if you care too tale a look (your probably far too lazy to do that) but my posts on fave live tracks then and now has generated some stimulating feedback but of course youve never seen queen live have u! |
| newcastle 86! 16483 14.01.2005 07:28 |
so i take it you dont have anything constuctive to say....................just the usual |

5 pages of utter crap, apart from literally few posts from ppl who have heads on their shoulders... Bob the Shrek came up with the number (67 was it?), I'll come up with some titles I skip: Champions AOBDT Ga-Ga Break Free Bicycle Race AKOM Friends Will Be Friends Oh I'm such a bad fan... There's more, but I'm also not bothered... Just went through obvious ones... |
| mike hunt 14.01.2005 14:08 |
yea, your right your not a fan, but i'm sure you try your best, don't worry the "queen" forgives you even if your not a real fan, if you don't like 67 songs from a band it's pretty obvious your not a fan, you may like some of their music, but not a fan. i like a bunch of david bowie songs, but i don't consid myself a true fan, there is a difference people. |
| mike hunt 14.01.2005 14:10 |
if this post is such a waste of time why are so many people responding? five pages for such a waste of time. |

I find it interesting that this fellow has become the end-all be-all of what makes a fan a fan. Of course, I might start listening to him when he posts something worthwhile to this site. |
| iGSM 15.01.2005 05:16 |
What makes a fan then? Just interested is all. |
| Sebastian 15.01.2005 06:25 |
I don't think there are absolutes in what does make an album overrated or underrated. Perhaps, for some, Dark Side is under-rated. Others might complain that Bo Rhap spent 9 weeks in #1 instead of 19 or would think Paul McCartney should have been named King of Britain instead of just being knighted. In a similar way, there might be people who would find that A Night At The Opera is over-praised. I've met many people who think Bo Rhap is a masterpiece but the band's got tons of better tracks. I find it unfair how some people put down Hot Space (my favourite Queen album in the 80s, no less) or The Miracle, but opinion is a matter of taste. Some comments are indeed strong (e.g. "Hot Space is shit"), but if we get into that we might as well get upset due to the enormous hatred that is shown sometimes against certain acts, like Robbie Williams, or U2 (the whole "over-rated" point). They're musicians as well, and to put them down is (to me) just as offensive as to put down Queen, Beatles, Kiss or Andrew Lloyd Weber. Instead of attacking the entire website by labelling it "the worst of all time", I would suggest you to ignore the topics you dislike and start off topics you would be interested in. Yes, some people you dislike might get in them and put comments you'd find offensive in those threads as well, but think that you can never get a perfect life. And if it were possible, imho, it would be so fucking boring. |

It reminds me something... Yeah, but... No, but... Yeah, but... No, but... |

i'm glad you see it my way Mr. fenderick, the Queen forgives you, all joking aside, this forum is a joke, it's the reason i wanted to post again. i love getting under the skin of ya. what is a real fan? how about a little respect for the band that brought you here, disliking an album is fine, but calling it utter crap and garbage, pathetic gets played out. you may say, it's only stating opinions, i'm also only stating my opinions, people like lester, fenderick, please don't get me started. did you know that freddie oppointed me "queen," and left me his cape and crown, did you? you should be jumping for joy, cos your chatting with the "queen" but don't worry the queen forgives you. |
| Lester Burnham 15.01.2005 13:01 |
I'm sure what you just said made a lot of sense to you, but I honestly have no idea what you're saying. Oh, and iGSM, what makes a fan a fan? Brains, brauns, and the month that you were born - we just couldn't understand. |
| mike hunt 15.01.2005 19:30 |
don't talk to the queen like that. Mr. lester, it's easy to understand, a fan wouldn't call their favorite bands music garbage or pathetic, and utter crap, even if it's not their best album. they could state their opinions, just like i'm stating mine, and by the way, your just jealous because freddie left me his cape and crown, he also appointed me "queen." |
| newcastle 86! 16483 15.01.2005 22:30 |
mike.........shut up if a fan wants too call somrtin "crap" its his or indeed her opinion thers no hard or fast rules you muppet thats why were all fans evryone has the right to say what they feel and that becomes the topic dont u understand the right to reply? |
| newcastle 86! 16483 15.01.2005 22:32 |
or indeed the word..........."topic" ha ha ha what a fool believes |
| iGSM 15.01.2005 22:35 |
In that case I dedicate this next song to me fans. ASINDJ. Could be a chart topper. |
| newcastle 86! 16483 15.01.2005 23:21 |

| newcastle 86! 16483 15.01.2005 23:33 |
and please dont get me mixed up with that "best friend" shithead! what oa looser lol |
| WAR 16.01.2005 03:36 |
Now that's what makes this board special. Friendship after fights. And here I was begining to think you were a bunch of knuckleheads. (Not really, but I just wanted to use that word, you know how it is, I hope I didn't start anything again) |
| mike hunt 16.01.2005 16:44 |
how cute, little queenies are bonding. no more fighting. we all need to get along, even if the majority of the people in this forum are not real fans, like fendrick and lester, are they true fans? lester? fnedrick? please, fenderick doesn't like 67 queen songs, he's obviously not a fan, a computer geek yes, likes chatting on his computer, but is no where near a fan. |
| Bob The Shrek 16.01.2005 18:34 |
I think you will find it was me that didn't like 67 songs - not Fenderek. Feel free to say I am not a real fan, I could give two shits what you think. |
| mike hunt 16.01.2005 19:05 |
i'm not about to get into that 67 song thing, i wasn't sure if that was fenderick, but i like pissing him off. lester and fenderick and now shrek are the biggest clowns on this forum. the three stooges. |

Hope this won't add fuel to the dying fire, but I like the song Good Company. It's true, you gotta take good care of what you got! Well, Mike, I just wanna say this, I'm pretty much full of hate and rage (not really, but that's gonna be my gimick) and if I have some friends who aren't Queen fans, then I'm sure you can too. So even if you don't consider some people fans and some people clowns, we can still be friends. I'm deathly afraid of clowns, but I'm willing to be friends with one regardless if he loves Queen or likes Queen. So, let's all do the hokey pokey and turn ourselves around. Then we'll all playfully laugh at each other for how funny we looked then thank Mike for getting us to know each other!!! |
| WAR 17.01.2005 18:30 |
It's because of the clowns isn't it?!?!?!? They are scary stuff!!! They are no monkeys. |
| WAR 18.01.2005 03:41 |
That is creepy as hell, the candy pulling from behind your ears. My story, to be honest, (please don't laugh) but I think it's from Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Either that or just the fact that there some super tall (at least 10ft on stilts) dude with a white face who is ALWAYS smiling. Too creepy for me. |
| WAR 18.01.2005 04:22 |
ehh, some cheesy 80's horror movie. kinda funny now. And I'm not on anything that ain't my scene |
| mike hunt 18.01.2005 21:54 |
i believe the movie was "it" from Mr. King, the killer was a clown. |
| WAR 19.01.2005 02:51 |
Yea, that was one too, but there is a movie also called Killer Klowns from Outer Space. To be honest, even though I love horror movies, I don't think I have seen "IT". But I do own Killer Klowns From Outer Space. Gotta face your fears!!! |
