Anybody who says anything other than this guy is wrong. Watching Netflix Streaming right now and happened upon "Classic Albums: Queen, A Night At The Opera" and this band was mind-blowing. Wow, just wow.

Freddie Mercury was BITB. Mick Jagger is pretty effin good at what he does too but if you watch some of the stuff that VH1 Classic has on Queen, Freddie could make Mick look like an amateur.
Title: Re: Best Frontman of All-Time
Post by: SkinnyBenny on August 19, 2011, 05:45:00 PM: Not to mention that Freddie Mercury was also BITB in songwriting and piano-ing. I don't know much about Iggy Pop but I can guarantee that he sucks balls and ballsacks and taints at any of this compared to FM.

I'd like to see Freddie's corpse say that to Iggy's face
Title: Re: Best Frontman of All-Time
Post by: SkinnyBenny on August 19, 2011, 06:23:46 PM: I'm sure when Freddie's corpse said that to Iggy's emaciated face, Iggy would try to retaliate musically to prove him wrong and it would be terrible.
