Utterly dreadful and I would imagine there is a huge crossover between their fans and fans of musical theatre (not a homophobic point). I'll admit Seven Seas of Rye is a banger though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Freddie Mercury's much mentioned vocal range is one of the most overrated in all of music, plenty of other singers have a wider rangeWell at least your nonsense is in the right thread for a change. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian May made his own guitar from a fireplace, banged a household name actress and is a well respected astrophysicist. That's pretty interesting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Dunno about his vocal range, but Freddie Mercury had an incredible powerful voice, and the theatricality to vary his delivery. You can't imagine anyone else filling in on Queen's songs and doing a better job. If it's vocal range you want (or anything else, for that matter), Mike Patton of Faith No More is your man. Brian May seems like a bit of a w**k, but he's one of a select group of guitar players with their own unique sound, and his work is well-respected by other guitarists. I quite like the way he was willing to step back and not fill their songs with his guitar. Huh, maybe I'm more of a Queen fan than I thought. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite Queen songs though aren't the famous ones. When the weather turns bad like this I really like A Winter's Tale (not that David Essex bollocks, but a good song). Also like Spread Your Wings and Save Me more than the more famous songs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
