Ok all you fans of Deaky out there. Now's the time to show your true appreciation for everything John has done for Queen and more. Feel free to leave comments about John, like why you think he's the best Bass player, what you like about him, etc. Please be nice though, as we don't want to hurt anyones feelings. I may be a MAYniac, but I love Deaky too! Hell, I love em' all!! Ok, I'll start it off: I just think that Deaky is an adorable man. I can relate to him in a way. I just love his smile, his eyes and all of his different hair-dos. If it wasn't for him and his Basslines, the songs just would not have gone anywhere. John kept the band afloat in the business end. So, Thank you Deaky for being a wonderful person and Bass player!! |

Ahh, Finally, Deaky getting postive love! EXCLUSIVELY DEACON! lol Love his songs. Love his bass work. Love His stage Presence... He's the bounciest bass player since Paul McCartney was with the Beatles... Hes adorable and a dad. Spoke little, but when he did he had good things to say. Very modest. Good man Deaky! Has a poetic mind, i mean MISFIRE, ONE YEAR OF LOVE, YOUR MY BEST FRIEND are just beautiful. His songs spoke VOLUMES... just look at these IWTBF, AOBTD etc... etc... Great Bassists and forever loved. Rock on! \m/ And I thank him for SPREAD YOUR WINGS because he used my name in it! lol sure its a guy and i spell Sammy wiht an I, but who cares?! The song fits me perfectly... |

deacyamp wrote: a question about John : what was the real reason for leaving the band ? and never seen beside the band guys again ? ( a secret argument? )Good Questions!! Legend has it that Freddie's passing was very hard on him and he wanted to spend more time with his family. So, he retired from playing to devote more time to his family. To my understanding, he still keeps in touch with Brian and Roger and supports everything they do. But he dosen't want to be a part of it anymore. He just wants to be with his family. No matter what his decisions are, us Deaky fans still love him and support his desicisons. Right guys? |

I'd just like to say that john deacon is so cool, anyone who thinks he is just the 'quiet one' needs their heads sorting as he is a great base player and a very important part of what was queena dn the new tour would be even better with john in it!! Leigh XxXxXxXxX |
| deleted user 25.07.2006 17:06 |
John Deacon a) is one of the great 'bassmen' of rock music. b) has composed some of the basslines of legendary status (Under Pressure and AOBTD) to name but a couple c)He is a loyal husband and sounds a lovely father d)looked GREAT with his long hair in the 70's and in the NOTW era. (glad I'm not the only one who thought he looked good) e)has composed some Queen classics. f)has to put up with such a lot of shit from the public everything from, 'we can't remember the other bloke's name' (Top Gear) to old-school Queen fans whinging about no more Freddie ergo Queen should not tour and why doesn't John not tour with them anyway? and g) was an intelligent and vital quarter of the best band ever QUEEEEEEEN so that is my reasons why John is Great!! |
| Gone. 25.07.2006 17:24 |
John Deacon is a wonderful bassist, person and band-member. I respect him the same way as i respect Rog, Bri, and Freddie. You rock John! |
| Sherwood Forest 25.07.2006 18:42 |
i think more people can relate to John than to Briand, Roger or Freddie really. He's quiet, still very smart- seems a bit shy and miss judged- sounds like a lot of people i know- including me (a little). I know more people who would fit the description of John than Freddie. Very plain man really, very nice- what can i say I Love John@@@@2221!!! |

John is God, pure and simple. I used to have a shrine to him in my flat (a bit sad, but hey, I love the guy and I was drunk!) I seriously believe that he is one of the most underrated bass players out there (see Millionaire's Waltz)and a damned fine funk rhythm guitar player (staying power at the bowl) It was his love of funk and soul which contributed to the recording of Hot Space (one of my favourite albums after Queen, Queen 2 and Sheer Heart Attack) Generally an all round top geezer, although I wonder if he got a cut from grumpy clog man's deal with vox to reproduce the amp that John created? Basically I believe that John is a top bloke who has done his reputation no end of good by staying at home away from all of grumpy and chunky's media whoring (5ive, Robbie Williams, Wiggy Rodgers et al) Waits for the flames...... |
| AmeriQueen 27.07.2006 05:50 |
I look at him this way: a)from 'Misfire' to 'Your My Best Friend' to 'Spread Your Wings' to 'I Want To Break Free', he has added some of the best Queen tracks to their catalogue, even if it is a bit less than the other three. His songs seem very well developed and classic in their makeup, being either classical sounding piano or classic rock/pop. He also is a good guitarist, adding a lot of acoustic in parcular and in contrasting style to what May plays like. b)he is an A-list bass player, very good at adding bass where it's needed rather than pounding out monotonous bass lines to carry a rhythm that doesn't change. Plus he created the 'Under Pressure' and 'Another One Bites The Dust' bass riffs among others. c)last, but not least, Where would Brian be without the Deacy amp that John made way back when? This is probably his most important influence to Queen being that Brian's unique sound so often stretches the unique part furthest when he is orchestrating guitar harmonies using this crazy sounding amplifier like no other before it. Deacon was great for Queen and I would not have had it any other way. |

John has sexy GREEN eyes (one of my favourite colours) and he's shy (Aaawwww!!!). He wrote great songs like You and I and he's a great bassist (I once heard he was the 16th best). I dont care if he looked at strippers or whatever. I love him as musician and for the role he played in Queen (the sweet quiet shy one). : D |
