My (new) 3 Rants: Rant #2 - Queen....errr Bad Company?
The other day I heard the new Queen song Celebrity. Paul Rodger is now at the helm for the frontman replacing the (big) hole that Freddy Mercury left many years ago. Two good examples of successful bands with new lead singers...AC/DC and Van Halen went on with new lead singers and had very successful results. But Freddy Mercury to me is one that cannot be replaced. I'm not a Queen fan and I don't know of any Queen fans....but I would like to know what they think of the new Queen. The new song starts out sounding like Bad Company or The Firm or Free then when the chorus comes in, it sounds a lot like the old Queen...just without Freddy....sorry change the name of the band boys..call it King or Bad Free or Firm King but don't call it Queen.

get your [REJECTED] stamp out.
i am a queen fan.
with that said, i agree - freddie can't be replaced. i gave a fair listen to the new stuff, more than once and i can't to it. its tick or two off where it should be... timing.
along the same lines - alice in chains also had a (big) hole to fill. William DuVall definitely isn't layne, but it fits.
