bohemian rhapsody, killer queen, dont stop me now, somebody to love, another one bites the dust, a kinda magic, seven seas of rye- the list is endless.

Wish I could say that :(

Oh, I forgot to list "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Another One Bites the Dust" but all those others are just minor hits, they weren't really That Great. Oh and Somebody to Love. Wasn't "Another One Bites the Dust" a remake anyways?

Queen were quite frankly the best thing ive heard live in quite some time (on DVD). give that to them.

sure, lol.

their certainly not my favourite but they've churned out some quality songs and a brilliant greatest hits. plus news of the world is one of my favourite albums.

I must disagree with all of your choices of slated bands frankly....they were around in a time that without their touch on life, e would never be where we are today musically,,Beatles broke new ground and gave kids something to stand up to their over bearing christian parents and are musically gifted, don't care!
GNR, I can do without, but Queen Man! Don't slag them off, Opera and rock n' roll combined? that is musical talent, experience and PUNK man! They don't care what you think! They KNOW it sounds cool and were not too scared to try it!
And Freddie Mercury was *** and open with it so he was a great influence on the *** people!
Black Sabbath though, I dunno, to me it is not so much the talent but the memories, all people know what those songs remind you of, especially when you were around when they were first recorded! a certain summer, a lover or a party even....
Some of these bands have been overplayed and run into the ground, and we become sick of it, but you have to go deeper than that and see what they did for us, and remember what they WERE and not what they are now.....
that's my peice....go ahead, show me my wrongs....

I would have a rant about my most hated band in here, but I dont think Destinys child classes as a band any more... Id just like to say though, both Queen and Guns n Roses were huge at the time, and I love 'em both now. They made an impact on the public, so there must have been something special to them. Oh yeah, and I agree with Anarchy Doll's bit about how some of them have been overplayed, you do kinda have to look harder than just theyre most famous songs to get an idea of what the band is like..

The Smiths, The Cure, and Bad Religion all bore the hell out of me. I cant listen to two songs let alon an entire album.

I don't like Red Hot Chilli Peppers... Well... I like the californication album... But they're so over rated and silly... I don't like them. I don't like their music. It doesn't appeal to me.... Californication is them grown up and good. Its thoughtful. Its got meaning... but the rest is silly. And the Strokes. THey're over rated aswell. It all sounds the same to me...
