Queen is overrated.

I wouldnt call those hits. Ive only heard of a handfull of those. And i didnt even know Saturday nights alright for fighting was done by him until Nickelback covered it.

And i dont know why people say Queen is overrated, if anything Elton John is overrated, or both. Queen is a good band, so i have no idea how they are overrated, nobody stated they are the best band in the world.

I would call those hits since they come from his greatest hits CD: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...glance&s=music

And Queen is overrated. That doesn't mean they're a bad band or anything, but they're overrated.

First of all, how is Elton John overrated? I know a lot of people who don't like him. As for Queen...at my school we had to vote for our next marching band field show, The Doors or Queen..and well my band director finally just decided to use the Doors, but everyone(mainly underclassmen) picked Queen. The songs were going to be Bohemian Rhapsody, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, and We Will Rock You(Which is already in our stand music!). They only know one song by Queen..well maybe like three.....We Will Rock You, Bohemian Rhapsody, and We Are The Champions. They don't even know Queen's better stuff!! Only because of Bohemian Rhapsody did they vote for Queen.....and they didn't even take the chance to listen to the stuff by the Doors....which is much better. There is just an example of Queen being overrated..

How does that make Queen overrated? Some stupid kids only know one song. So what. I only know a few songs by Elton John, that doesnt mean hes overrated.

So your saying because the doors are better than Queen ( which i agree with) that somehow makes Queen overrated.

I could see Queen being overrated if tons of people were still saying " aww man, Queen is the best band in the world."
But nobody is saying anything to how good they are, i think one person said they were good.

And apparently they are too overrated to even be good then.

EDIT: Agreed Canyarion, better..

[Canyarion]

Nikita
I'm Still Standing
Sacrifice
Can You Feel The Love Tonight
Candle In The Wind

Those are approved.

Queen:
Bohemian Rhapsody
Radio Gaga
Who Wants To Live Forever
I Want To Break Free
We Will Rock You
We Are The Champions
I Want It All
The Show Must Go On
Under Pressure
A Kind Of Magic
Another One Bites the Dust
Killer Queen
Bicycle Race

I'm sure you won't 'approve' all of those as hits... but I think it's still better than Elton's list.
