      There's a lot of bands that are misunderstood by the average listener. A lot of people aren't familiar with Rush''s hard prog rock music of the 70s. Or they don't know how raw the Beatles were when they played clubs in Germany in 1961. Or they don't know that Deep Purple started as a classically influenced pop group, or they don't know how great Black Sabbath first six albums were. Queen are one of the most misunderstood bands though. For a lot of "fans" it's all about the Greatest Hits and Freddie the showman.

      "Ogre Street" is most likely not referencing Ogre Battle, since Araki's references are often much more blatant. Ogre Battle doesn't match at all. There's no basis to assume the "Ogre" is referring to this song any more than it's referring to the mythical monster, since Ogre Street is a dangerous, "cursed" place.

    Early 70's Queen was really something else. This was from Queen II, released in March 1974, almost two years before ANATO which was November 1975. Pre-Bohemian Rhapsody there was so much great stuff.
    I love all eras of the band really, but I think people who don't listen to this earlier stuff are missing out on a lot. But you do see some of this hard rock energy on some of their stuff later on, particularly Hammer to Fall (1984) and Innuendo (1991). The Prophet's Song from ANATO is one of my personal favourites.

    8th episode of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure was named "Ogre Battle". Given the dozens of musical references in the franchise, the title was an obvious reference to this song.

    • @zoidsfan12
      @zoidsfan12 Před 6 lety +46

      The references in JoJo's is why I love it so much. It's rare that I don't get a reference and usually if I tell a family member about the character I didn't get the reference to they know it (usually it's an obscure artist from the 70's). I got my jjba birthmark tattoo and have been working on the manga for a while now. Nothing beats seeing David Bowie using queen references to kill shine on crazy diamond.

      "Ogre Street" is most likely not referencing Ogre Battle, since Araki's references are often much more blatant. Ogre Battle doesn't match at all. There's no basis to assume the "Ogre" is referring to this song any more than it's referring to the mythical monster, since Ogre Street is a dangerous, "cursed" place.

      @@AffyMoon It wasn't called "Ogre Battle", it was called "The Battle on Ogre Street".
