Wayne Coyne is a joy to see live. He's definitely a hippie but I couldn't help but smile at his namby-pamby crap about loving eachother during their Cleveland show. Does that make me weak? A commie? Both?

Over 150 million albums sold. 11th best selling artist of all time. A few decent singles????? Keep Yourself Alive Seven Seas of Rye Killer Queen Now I'm Here Bohemian Rhapsody You're my Best Friend Somebody to Love Tie Your Mother Down We Are the Champions Fat Bottomed Girls We Will Rock You Don't Stop me Now Crazy Little Thing Called Love Another One Bites the Dust Flash Under Pressure Radio Ga Ga I Want to Break Free Hammer to Fall A Kind of Magic One Vision Friends will be Friends Who Wants to Live Forever Innuendo The Show Must Go On Just some of the rock artists that have cited Queen as a major influence: Judas Priest Iron Maiden Metallica Megadeath Faith no More The Melvins Rage Against the Machine Slipknot Van Halen The Cult Kid Rock Nirvana Radiohead Trent Reznor Red Hot Chili Peppers Jane's Addiction The Flaming Lips Smashing Pumpkins My Chemical Romance Panic at the Disco Marylin Manson Over the years I've seen upwards of a hundred arena/stadium shows and Queen in 1977 is easily in my top 3. Freddie's also the best rock vocalist I've ever seen live. Saying Queen was/is overrated is simply dumb. Plus they peaked both commercially and successfully for many years and over a decade before Freddie's death.

I loved them when I was younger but they don't hold up so well these days. The whole silly, operatic, showtunes take on rock is too gimmicky.
