Queen the band sucks. I don’t get why anyone likes them. Aside from Bohemian Rhapsody, their songs are bland and fall short. Their rock is dry. And the opera-style singing is cringe. Examples:

Another One Bites the Dust

  • Catchy bass line, fun to direct at an opponent, CORNY AF. The song is about people being killed, but sounds like a funky Michael Jackson song with an Opera singer.

We Will Rock You

  • Good solo, repetitive and annoying simple beat. Boom-boom-ch. So lame.

We Are the Champions

  • Such a self-aggrandizing and braggy song. “No time for losers”? Okay, Donald Trump.

Bicycle Race

  • I don’t even have to say anything about this one. Everyone knows how corny this song sounds.

Somebody to Love

  • Touching topic, cheesy lyrics and even cheesier choir-like singing. It’s cringe.

I am happy for the band and their success. I admire Freddie Mercury’s unapologetic flamboyance. The dude kept it real. But, I just can’t like the music.

I’m sorry if I’ve offended anyone. I understand we all have different taste and respect everyone’s freedom to like and enjoy what they want. I’m not trying to insult anyone for their taste, but merely expressing my own in a somewhat humorous attempt.

    Choosing their most radio-friendly songs and ignoring everything else? Yeah nah.

        Spread your wings

        It’s a hard life

        These are the days of our lives

        Doing alright

        You take my breath away

        All dead, all dead

        Jealousy

        Save me

        Cool cat

        Is this the world we created

        Don’t try so hard
