Freddie really deserves the first place, no doubt about it.
But Mick Jagger is on 37 while Paul Rodgers is on 26? Come on, sir Mick is waaaay better than the latter!!!
And Eric Clapton is not much of a vocalist. A very good guitarist and a fine songwriter, but not one of the top vocalists...
Check out the other pages from that site Brian May is ranked 23rd John D is 46th and poor Roger is in at 69th....There spot on about Freddie he was so Amazing no-one comes close to his voice.x
Bah, rubbish list. Number 75 should be much higher up the list. He had a MUCH better voice than Axl Rose (For example). I love GnR but Axl wasn't that good, kinda sounded like a pig that had just had it's tail pulled.
A good one for Queen is the Rock Vocal Performances. Queen have 9 songs in the top 100 and Paul Rodgers is also in there. Strange though that for WWTLF is credited as Freddie & Brian but BoRap is only down as Freddie. The opera bit wouldn't be the same without Roger singing his bits.

Stevie Wonder is a genius, but he shouldn't be on a rock list.
Stevie Wonder was mostly R&B, funk, soul, and perhaps pop... not rock.
What I find fucked up on that list is that Chris Cornell is #3. As if anybody remembers Soundgarden.
i have to say, i hate these lists cos they make everyone argue over who should be where! but yep, they certainly got it right with Freddie for me!

GO QUEEN!!!!!!!
geese they are brilliant! i had no doubt about it but just to see their names next to those like elvis and others really makes me want to stand up tall and recite bohemian rhapsody!! lol
GOOD ON YA QUEEN!!!!!!!!!!!
That list is pretty good. I can't believe Meat Loaf is only an honorable mention!! Meat Loaf ROCKS!!! And Jon Bon Jovi and Sammy Hagar could have been higher on the list.
I thought Paul McCartney's inclusion in the Top 10 greatest bass players was a bit odd. His drumming in Back in the U.S.S.R was much better as was John's bass in The Long and Winding Road.

Well, It's good and deserved that Freddie is on the top! but I must say that som eof those lists are rubbish! i wouldn't say that Ringo Starr is a better drummer than Roger! Ringo couldn't follow the beat for god' sake! of course is it nice that freddie are topping a great list of brilliant artist, but the rest of the "Queen" should be higher! And if you look at the picture of the band Queen, you only see Freddie, and thats not right! Anyway, it was interesting but wrong.
