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 over-rated..

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..

I'm just complaining..I like Queen a lot, but I just get sick of seeing people picking them over all the other bands..when I personally think that other bands are better. It's just a personal thing...I'll just shut up about it.
