Queen sucks
Queen sucks
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.

Not every song needs to be good, and the fact that you even know the bad ones says something.
The bad songs listed are their greatest hits though
They always were a bit of a meme band, and the charts exaggerate that somewhat. Even Crazy Frog had a number one hit, and absolutely nobody could listen to that in 2024 and think it was good.
They're not really a lot different to many other artists. Some middling songs mixed in with some bangers. And they knew how to put on a show. That Live Aid gig was fucking iconic. None of the 72,000 people standing in Wembley stadium that day were thinking "these lyrics are cringe".
