Re: The "Official" Queen Thread
Fun fact, the single for "Play The Game" was the first times fans saw Freddie with what would become his trademark mustache, which he grew to track in an attempted to distract people from his teeth as he was terribly self conscious of.

Re: The "Official" Queen Thread
I agree. It's easy to just pop into a thread and go "Great band" but adding tidbits like that just make them so much more interesting to read.
Also Freddie's stache was only a stone's throw away from going Hulk Hogan in it's early days.

IIRC, he wouldn't get braces or have anything done to his teeth for fear that it would change his voice or singing ability.
Just something I remember hearing/reading, not sure if it's true.

Re: The "Official" Queen Thread
You mean a little something liiiiiiiiiike this?
Yes. Freddie had four extra teeth and even though he was very self conscious of them he thought that they extended his range so they stayed....and with range like his I have no reason to doubt him either.

Re: The "Official" Queen Thread
When you are referring to Queen as the 2nd highest selling rock band, are you considering the Beatles in that? Because I thought Led Zeppelin was the 2nd highest-selling band in history. They are pretty close.

Anywho... I LOVE this band. Their music gives you energy. Freddie Mercury remains the most charismatic frontman in rock history. RIP Freddie. How I would have loved to know you!
