Does anyone think John Deacon rocks? I mean hes okay but not really. Hes a little strange but a great bassist. He needs to step up a little bit as far as his hair and his outfits. Im just wondering so u can say whatever u want. Im always open for discussions!!
No thats not realalistic! Make Roger give up his beautiful blonde hair? Are u crazy! Same with Freddie and Brian. I really dont give a crap about John though! He could use a new hair style.
DEAKY IS MY IDOL!!!
If it wasn't for him (and Terry) I wouldn't have started learning bass, and now four months into it, I can do slap bass, play many Queen, Scissor Sisters and Red Hot Chilli Peppers songs.
YAY DEAK
and I like his hair, Afro's are cool (Just not on me) and I don't think he should be wilder, he's awesome the way he is!

John's more wild than Brian in my opinion. The difference is that Brian couldn't tame his ol dink so he put it in Aniter's stink! Behind his wife's back!!!
Who cares if John saw strippers! There were strippers backstage at Queen concerts!
John Deacon's personality its what it makes him special, he doesn't need to be "wild" or something, is just the way he is, but he had his moments, and he's funny in his own way, he's cool, plus, he was very sexy in the 70s, and the 80s...oooohhhhh.....

I don't know. John Deacon just seemed too quiet.
He never did an interview, at least a whole lot less than Freddie did! I thought Freddie was private until I realized that all the interview videos I've seen don't have John in them! Not one even after Freddie died, Brian & Roger did a few.
I think of John Deacon as necessary to Queen's success as the other three.
A.) He's a great bassist.
B.) He's a great songwriter and probably the best lyricist of the band.
C.) He's a better rhythm guitarist than even Brian.
D.) He invented the Deacy Amp.
Just look at the songs he wrote: Misfire, You're My Best Friend, You and I, Who Needs You, Spread Your Wings, I Want To Break Free, etc.
He's great!
Come to think of it, an album with only John's material might be more 'royal' than Greatest Hits III. Ameriqueen that's a great list, imho add "Under Pressure" :)
How is it stupid its talking about queen and the band members. You need to go back and your cookies. this doesnt count your opinion about the thread being stupid. I wanted to see and hear other people's opininons on John Deacon. So then if you dont like the thread then you shouldnt say comments about. To some people its important.(This mostly pertains to COOKIES)

._. You're aware, of course, that that's not insulting at all and won't really make me "go back to my cookies" by which I still don't honestly understand what the hell you are talking about, hah...

I love John Deacon! There's no Queen without him. I love all the members. Roger's hot, Freddie's beautiful, Brian's handsome, and John is charming. Very attractive band, if you ask me. John has a role in Queen, and it's not only being the bass player. He's one of the people that add personality to Queen. Queen is a band that has jumbled characteristics. It's a whole big mess. If you take John Deacon out of it, it's incomplete. JOHN DEACON COMPLETES QUEEN.

He's great!
How could you forget AOBT?!
This song is just f'n unreall!!! I never get tired of it. and what it done for them in the US. Apprrarntly it was there best selling single there.
idunno, AOBT gets old after a while. though it's still very catchy!
u may already know, but there's a subliminal message in this song: it says, "it's fun to smoke marajuana" a few times. what have u been up to john? :p
