Classic of the week #3

by Thomm • 30 Jul 2011, 07:49 • Journals
So many stupid music-journals lately that I got annoyed by them and decided to contribute myself too.

These rock / metal classics which I pick shall be harrassing you from time to time appearing wildly and randomly when ever I feel like it and especially if I see dubsteb / house / electronic / rap / other stuff I dont usually like.

Well, this was quite obvious. United Kingdom Queen is one of the biggest bands ever, breaking records, borders and styles like no other. Most of it was because of the charismatic leader, Freddie Mercury. Ok, I admit, he did it like Jimi & Jim & Kurt, died too early, so he has this weird kind of a overrate-hype by that, but damn, could he sing. His voice gives me chills <3

Hard to choose what song should be played. But this has the lyrics which suit my feelings quite well, so there you go, suck on it. Btw, if you havent watched that whole gig at Wembley, do it, pure win.

A further controversy ensued in August 2006, when an organisation calling itself the Islamic Mobilization and Propagation petitioned the Zanzibar government's culture ministry, demanding that a large-scale celebration of what would have been Mercury's sixtieth birthday be cancelled. The organisation issued several complaints about the planned celebrations, including that Mercury was not a true Zanzibari and that he was gay, which is not in accordance with their interpretation of sharia. The organisation claimed that "associating Mercury with Zanzibar degrades our island as a place of Islam".[65] The planned celebration was cancelled.


Poor Freddy.

let's say it like this: I wouldn't switch the channel if they were on radio.

I dunno... they remind me of musicals too much.

Good stuff, FinlandThomm! Queen are my alltime favorite band.
I do not agree with you on the overrate-hype though. Queen were in business for a pretty long time and had their greatest success during that time. The death of Freddie sadly made it impossible to carry on. Apart from the annual "celebration" of Freddie's death it actual put a slowly fading end to their popularity.
