Ahh that's the one. I knew that they had done one song that I know. It's the one that is on The Wedding Singer isn't it?
Amazed there are people on here who have never heard of Joy Division. "Love will tear us apart" is huge. I'm not even a fan! I preferred the likes of The Cure and Siouxsie and the Banshees.
People have different tastes and all that, which is a good thing I suppose. Queen wrote some very good pop songs which of course is correct, however I think you are confusing influential with popularity. Joy Division were/are much more influential, Queen are more popular.
acl will not be pleased poaching their stadium acts more court cases ?Maybe Queen can open the new stadium with whoever they are collaborating with now, like 5ive or some x-factor guy that Brian May always turns up on stage with.
Went on to form New Order, probably havent heard of these either?

Although the song has become one of the most revered in popular music history,
The song has won numerous awards, and has been covered and parodied by many artists
It is a regular entry in greatest-songs polls, and it was named by the Guinness Book of Records in 2002 as the top British single of all time
The single was accompanied by a promotional video, which many scholars consider ground-breaking.
this song changed the direction of music in general and watching one of the numerous documentaries that have been made about it, will tell you that it was production of Music and Video in a way that had not been done before. This set the trend for production of music and film working in unison that we see today.
don't mention marilion, shushhhhhhhhhhh !At least Queen could still fill a 12K arena/shed...
G n'R, Foo Fighters and Metallica all reference Queen as a major influences on their careers. 3 of the biggest rock (in Metallica's case, metal) bands of all-time, so Queen must have been reasonably influential!
Changed the direction of music how? Sets the trend in music production to this day in what way? Which scholars consider the video ground breaking?

Can I just say that this is worse than a Sisu/ACL debate. Everyone has different music tastes and this is starting to get a bit touch and go.
Metallica call everyone an influence
Do they call Joy division an influence?
Are you still pissed that bros never reformed then??
who remembers that song that the sky blues used to come out to by B.A ROBERTSON ( he's Strachen's mate ), gabbage !

Queen are as far as I know the only UK band to have had number ones written by every member of the band whilst they were alive.
Sorry, can't help myself joining in. Queen were my favourite band growing up. Anyone who says they were just a singles band has obviously not heard their albums. They would be my ultimate favourite band ever - if it weren't for the mighty Swedish rap metal band CLAWFINGER. (No I'm not kidding, you have got to check Clawfinger out. Find 'Biggest and the Best' on youtube, sit back and enjoy...)
I quite like Queen, but nobody ever talks about their albums. How often do you see them in top 100 albums of all time lists.

'Master Of Puppets' is (after Machine Head's 'The Blackening') the greatest album of all-time.
A Night At The Opera is in every top 100 album list I have ever seen, usually towards the top 10. Now I know you're just trolling.
