I can’t stand that magazine (…) One time Rolling Stone tried to write a political piece on us. I think the guy was deaf or his battery had run out. But it was very creepy. They have this very superior pseudo-intellectual approach to everything. They don’t approach anything with their senses. They were very nasty, and I wrote them a very nasty letter back, which they did print.

“fucking proud of its music (not all).”

My sister and I have actually been talking about this very thing recently. People especially like to portray Roger as an idiot. But like, every last one of these guys are absolute geniuses. Freddie created the Queen crest, and he designed and created beautiful clothing. His sister owns two BEAUTIFUL, amazing coats he made. John sat his exams in the middle of recording Queen II (and passed) and returned the same day to continue recording. He basically created Queen’s sound system. He also boosted his own car’s engine, and kept track of the band’s finances. We all already know Brian is a fucking astrophysicist. Hello. And Roger was in medical school before switching to biology. And he pens things like this. Absolute artistic and logical, scientific geniuses, all four of them. It just floors me.
The Netherlands democratically puts a list of the 2000 best songs together every year around New Year’s and the biggest mystery every time is whether Bohemian Rhapsody wins again
i’m serious, if it doesn’t win, it’s second place
every winner before 2005 is Bohemian Rhapsody as well
why arent we talking about the constant presence of hotel california
