      Damn, you managed to display an ignorance of TWO bands in that short statement. The first error is predicated on numerous misunderstandings regarding Ringo’s role in the band, what he actually did on recordings (including assuming he wrote a song that he didn’t), and his relationship with his bandmates. And then you follow it up with a misinterpretation of the scene in this video which clearly shows that Roger Taylor was nothing like Ringo. Also, Roger Taylor is a multi-instrumentalist and vocalist with a solid songwriting catalog. Each one of the members of Queen wrote hits for the band.

      Their music is incredibly diverse. It has something for everyone. You got your hard rockers like “Stone Cold Crazy”. You got your ballads like “White Queen”. You got your funky stuff like “Another One Bites the Dust”. You got your experimental like “Bohemian Rhapsody”. You got your epics like “The Prophet Song”. You got your rockabilly like “Crazy Little Thing Called Love”. You got your fantasy songs like “My Fairy King”. You got your old Timey songs like “Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy” and so on. Their catalog is incredible. A lot of their better songs are the non hits. You’d have to deep dive to see their true greatness. You also have 4 of the greatest musicians ever. All 4 are top tier in their instruments. They combine for a great sound.

    the interview with brian and roger talking about the making of this was funny! brian saying "roger was always into fast things, cars etc etc" 😉 a dig at his endless string of women 😂😂 👑✊🇬🇧
