Good luck with that. Here in small town NE Georgia people are listening almost exclusively to country music and jeebus music, with an emphasis on Wallen/Combs/Riley Green/Zach Bryan/etc. bro country, and if they're listening to anything classic rock, it's probably Skynyrd. They could never understand a band as awesome as Queen. Besides, Freddie was gay, and around these parts people think being gay is a sin.

Chip probably meant to try to unite the country folks here instead.

Yeah, that's unusual to hate them with a passion. Not everybody loves Queen but most people at least like their hits.

Ha, that's me, I really like the hits, but don't think I've ever even tried to listen to an album. Some of the live stuff I've seen online is just epic

And who among us didn't do the headbanging scene from Waynes's world when driving around with their friends back in the day

Their sound was unparalleled recording-wise. Probably the most meticulously recorded band since The Beatles. Brian May’s guitar tone is severely underrated. Roger Taylor’s drumming, also underrated.

And good gosh - Freddie’s songwriting and arranging, again, Beatle-esque territory.

They just don’t get enough props due to probably their name and the homosexual slant.

They are one of the most revered bands in history!

When it comes to queen I'm a greatest hits fan. Can't get into their studio albums.

Meh, "Headlong" and "Flash Gordon theme" are the only 2 songs I have downloaded, and I like some of their hits, but totally sick of "Bohemian Rhapsody" and can't stand "Under Pressure".

That's the thing for me: the hits are all I ever hear. I can't get away from them and they are on the radio ALL. THE. FUCKING. TIME. I reluctantly listen to terrestrial radio when I run short errands and there is almost always some queen song on some station at any given time. If I hate the hits, I'm sure as hell not gonna give their deep cuts a chance.

Never mind.
Reportedly, Confessore was in financial trouble as a result of his extensive investment in the tribute album 'Whole Lotta Love -- an All-Star Tribute to Fat Chicks,' which featured covers of various rock songs dedicated to well-endowed women ('Whole Lotta Rosie,' 'Fat Bottomed Girls') by members of '80s rock bands such as L.A. Guns and Jackyl.

That's even worse. Just flush the money.

Queen is the ultimate "people list them as one of their favorite bands but only know one song" band for people younger than their hey day.

When Wayne's World came out, a whole generation had their mind blown by Bohemian Rhapsody. It was funny, back in the AOL days nearly EVERYONE had Queen on their "Music" part of their bio. And 90% of them only knew BR, and MAYBE one or two other songs.

The funny thing is, they all know "We Will Rock You" but most just thought it was a random sports game chant.

I'm sorry but I just can't get into Queen. I need inspirational music that helps motivate me getting into my lifted mid 90's 4x4 and throw some mud around while shooting my gun out the window while chugging moonshine and chewing tobacco. Before y'all get upset at me, the simp in me stays on my own property while getting rowdy in the middle of the night. The closest neighbor is three miles down the road and they don't hear me. Alot of times I just need some good ole Waylon. Yeehaw!

Anyway, I gotta get up early now so I can exercise my 2nd amendment right and buy more guns and make fun of those skinny jean wearing fairies buying $10.00 mochas made with oatmilk at the coffee shop in town. Let'r buck Y'all.


Queen, seriously....

Threads like this are a great litmus test for detecting the stupid.

I’m not a HUGE fan, but anyone who thinks QUEEN sucks has their ears up their ass.

Love Queen! Great tunes and excellent musicianship! Its a shame here in the US, folks dissed them after Hot Space. After that debacle, they came back with some excellent recordings.
