Here's the thing about Freddie. The man had some serious pipes. He had a 4 octave range and he excelled in any octave. He wrote brilliant songs. And his stage presence was only matched by Adolf Hitler. Seriously, watch them play Radio Gaga at Live Aid and then watch a video of the Nuremburg rallies. We had better thank our lucky stars Freddie didn't go into politics or he would have taken over the world. But Queen as a whole had a brilliant dynamic. It wasn't just the Freddie Mercury backup band. They all made huge creative contributions to what made Queen what it is. Yes, Freddie wrore Somebody to Love, Killer Queen, and Bohemian Rhapsody, but Brian May wrote We Will Rock You, Save Me, and Fat Bottom Girls, John Deacon wrote I Want to Break Free, Another One Bites the Dust, and You're my Best Friend, and Roger Taylor wrote Radio Gaga and It's a Kind of Magic. Other bands like Nirvana for instance were not like that. Nirvana was basically just the Kurt Cobain backup band. Queen was this perfect storm of legendary talent, and Freddie was the face of it all, the delicious cherry on top of an already delicious sundae. He was the ambassador that allowed the amazing talent of combo that was Queen to be brought into our lives. He was the prism that focused the lazer beams from the brains of Roger, Brian, and John, and amplified them until they were powerful enough to blow our minds out through our ear holes. Yes, he was the most incredible front man who ever lived, hands down.

I 100% agree with you.
>He had 4 dicks inside him
That's what I read
Here's the thing about Freddie. He got AIDS and died.
Here's the thing about Freddie. long winded post with plenty of buzzwords and assumptions explaining why this reddit copypasta is wrong
This sounds so reddit but i agree.
I don't care of he did well within his genre, I still hate it
>Yes, he was the most incredible front man who ever lived, hands down.
In a world with James Brown and Jim Morrisson, this is incorrect.
He's on par with Brown, murders Morrison.
>murders Morrison
The fiend!
>most incredible front man who ever lived
any second-rate black frontman is more incredible
hes a just a faggot who died of aids, move along nothing to see here
>Rolling Stone didn't include him on their greatest 100 songwriters of all time list but somehow had room for Kanye and Taylor Swift
That magazine used to be so cool
It's the lyrics. There wasn't a single good lyricist in Queen, and rock critics have a lyrical bias, because writing lyrics is the bit they can most easily imagine being good at, and lyrics are quotable whereas music isn't, unless you're addressing a music-literate audience, which they never are.
Huge cock as well.
Here's the thing about Freddie, he was BTFO by his big brother, David Bowie
-Much better song writer
-Debatably a better singer
-Known in the music industry for having the best buldge
-Wrote many more songs, all of which were better. Ex: The Laughing Gnome
-Handsome musician even while on coke
-Atheist
-Is straight, married a black super model, black men BTFO
-Fucked everyone else
-Molested a 14 year old Jennifer Connelly
-Played in a shit ton of movies
-Didn't die of aids
-Was a better front-man by far, lol
How can Freddie compete?
Very well put
not true by the way
You can tell a Bowie plebeian if they don't like The Laughing Gnome. Its like a Bob Dylan fan not knowing the masterpiece that is Wiggle Wiggle or Neil Young's T-Bone
And that, children, is why rock critics cannot into metal. Since it's about sounds rather than lyrics.
I've missed this meme
Everything from Queen II to A Day at the Races is great.
What are some songs where he sings deep.
