SK wrote: He's just doing a paordy of a Queen song, we've seen this before, even in their damn day the comedy shows must have done a Queen paordy or two, is this insulting? Not really. Will this ever replace the real "We Are The Champions"? No. You shouldn't take such things to heart :) it will drive you mad! Cheers.

Or Britney Spears and Beyonce? Or Five? Or Wyclef Jean? Or what?? Or even someone putting on her website "Freddie Mercury is a radioactive squirrel"? Questions over questions. Oops, another 10,000 kids in Africa died while I've been writing all this. Now what is really important, darling?

How dare they even ATTEMPT to emulate Freddie's genius!?? That should be against the law. Only Freddie Mercury is allowed to sing Queen songs, and since he's dead...hey, let's just ban the live performance of Queen songs altogether. And PAUL RODGERS!! OMFG!!!!112!1one! Simple. He will be put to death for insulting Freddie. I mean, hasn't he a brain? LongLostMercury...please. Being a bad musician does not forbid you from covering songs of musicians who are better than you. In fact, covering songs is a TRIBUTE, not a TRAVESTY.

If it's not bad enough to be funny to you, then don't watch or listen to it. It changes nothing.

This is a bittersweet and ironic farce, to see one extreme portray the other. The degradation knows no bounds, and I look with a sick fascination into the abyss.

Actually, as Freddie's self-appointed conduit in the land of the living, I am authorized to speak for him. Freddie says "William Hung is a twat - kill him!" That and "I asked that Kensington be leveled for my memorial pyramid - let's go people!"
