Kind of says it all that Vanilla Ice was recently playing a function for the Tangerine Fascist and yeah how fitting playing “Ice, Ice, Baby” when you’ve got these ICE agents going around shooting US citizens in cold blooded assassinations, what an utter prick Vanilla Ice must be. The best that awful fascist Dictator wannabe, so called “leader of the Free World” can get to perform for him is Kid Rock, Snoop Dog and Vanilla Ice :twisted:
Yes agreed using "Under Pressure" brillant bassline has always annoyed me too and I too have always been a massive Bowie gan who used to live near where I grew up as a kid where plenty of my mate's saw him once in the cleaners "Sketchleys" I never did ever see him,but I've Lways so highly rated and liked him and he should be in my other threads Heroes song,he deserves to be there.

Queen outstanding Freddie,baselines phenomenal and then there was Brian and Roger and their music was always commercially attractive with still a heavy feel.

I like bands and musicians who stand out as "different " so please name another like them?
There isn't one anywhere,they stand alone who have released heavy rock sings,operatic sings,funkier beat one's and then there was "Don't Stop Me Now" that is impossible not to like or toe tap and dance nuts to it,the body cannot stay still for me only anyway ...

Queen stand alone as one amazingly talented band as both musicians,singing and songwriting,
They simply have it all above any other rock band ever to me anyway.

Live Aid Queen's set simply is the best set I have ever seen and heard.

I've just been watching "Rock the World", the documentary with Bob Harris covering them recording "News of the World" and then taking it on tour in the US, it was very interesting. It was on Sky Arts a week or two back, so it'll be on again soon.

I think JJ likes that - Didn't he choose it as a track on a promo thing when it was out?

I don’t mind “Under Pressure”, but that Vanilla Ice is truly woeful…

Yes, I am a huge fan of Bowie, particularly from the 70s albums, all of them are brilliant and I regularly listen to them, his 80s and 90s stuff not so much, but I don’t know if you heard the last two albums he made; “The Next Day” and “Black Star”? They really are amongst his greatest albums, and what a way to end his legacy. I rate those two albums as strong as his greats from the 70s. That’s a nice story you have there of a personal connection to Bowie.

I seem to recall there's a "mash up" of this with a Stranglers track, but I can't remember which one. I downloaded it years ago, but I don't think I ever listened to it.

Having just driven up and down to Portsmouth this week (approx 10hrs each way) with 3 work mates, each one wanting to play their musical interests, there's quite a few songs I fucking hate at the moment.
