There was one new chick in high school who told me the first time we met The Beatles were her favorite band. I asked her what her favorite album was (not in a hur dur my tastes are better than yours kinda way, I was genuinely asking) and she just looked away. All her the songs she mentioned were their early pop stuff too.
>Bohemian Rhapsody is a bad song
>>66375350
>regularly posts to 4chan
>pretends to be special for having "nonpleb taste"
if any should be red flag its this
>>66377622
There's a difference between taste and claiming something is the best song of all time.
>>66377730
Especially a song as bad as Bohemian Rhapsody.

>>66378654

Nigga it isn't the best song in the world but you'd have to be retarded to think it's bad.
>>66378728
It's bad. And so is Queen. Absolute pleb band of the highest order. Fucking corny ass music.
>>66378796
In your opinion.
reddit ruined queen for me
>>66378825
Nah it's objective fact
>>66378825
>We Are The Champions

These songs are pretty much memes at this point.
>>66378852
Reddit ruined everything for me. I can't watch a Tarantino movie or listen to a Queen/Radiohead/Pink Floyd song now without thinking "this is reddit, this is memes, this is reddit, this is memes."
>>66378875
Fair enough, but what about the rest of their catalogue? Sure there are some tracks that might be too popular for you to enjoy, but most of them are still decent.
>>66378875
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7ggVUqYvdg
good covers of it though
>>66378917
You care way too much about that than you probably should
>>66378934
I don't care that they're popular. Their music is just straight-up cheesy. And their albums are full of filler.
>>66379033
Alright. I respect your opinion, have a nice day and all that.
>>66378728
>>66378796
Nah, Queen isn't that bad. Most of their output is middle-of-the road stuff and most of their albums are like 5 or 6/10. But they are massively overrated by the general public, which leads to a backlash against them by elitist boards like /mu/ that want to distance themselves and compensate by saying Queen is "shit tier" and whatnot. They're not a great band but they're also not the bottom of the barrel garbage they're made out to be around here.
>it's it's popular, it's shit
>deafheaven is shit and isnt real black metal, it was made by a bunch of hipster faggots and the vocals dont make sense
>"oh I love [insert name]!"
>only listened to individual songs
Bohemian Rhapsody is unironically good, and I couldn't care less for the rest of Queen's discography.
The status it's attained by normies makes it receive more hatred than it deserves.
>>66379173
They do suck. Their albums are a 3/10 at best. I hate hearing people tell me
They are amazing and one of the best based on the fact that freddy had a great voice. He does have a good voice, too bad they couldnt write songs for shit
>>66380781
Not even the biggest of plebs listens to Queen for their albums.
They're a singles band, through and through.
>>66375350
>I listen to Grimes, Tame Impala, Death Grips, Mac Demarco, Ariel Pink, DIIV, Sweet Trip, Kendrick Lamar, Aphex Twin and James Ferraro.

Aphex twin is great tho and if you disagree you're probably just a pleb who only knows his IDM work (which is still pretty good anyway).

It's a jumbled mess that doesn't flow. First some basic bitch ballad, then some retarded rock opera concept followed by a basic bitch riff with some dumb lyrics.
It's an overrated mess of a song but modern fans like it because muh rock opera concept. Or that it tries to be something more than the typical radio shit they've always heard.

>>66382844
I was that weird dude.
The classic rock fuck boy hated me.
>>66382844
I knew that girl at my high school. During one of our final assemblies to celebrate graduation they had announcers do a bunch of "fun" stuff including host a rap battle where 5 people from the audience could volunteer to do a verse or two over a beat they had. Some of them were actually pretty decent. That girl was last in line and when her time came she made a brief remark about liking music with "real talent" and then proceeded to try and sing over the beat instead of rapping. It was the cringiest shit I have seen in my life to date.

I listened too much of Queen when I was younger and OD'd on that. There are too many artists I OD'd and cannot ever listen for enjoyment again.
>>66376725

>>66376822
He's not the only one, but that statement is correct
>>66385914
this is the truth, literally nobody you encounter throughout your life will ever call your taste "reddit-tier", and the only ones who think it will be the occasional /mu/tard you come across, but even still they'll be too autistic to call you out on it, stop caring what an anonymous board thinks.

Hello rato my main man
>>66378917
The fuck would you care about what people on Reddit think about certain artists/albums? I could understand it if you are an edgy 15 y/o kid and are getting hard just by thinking about this epic 4chan vs Reddit rivalry, but otherwise it's just cringeworthy (it already is in previous case, but it's next level if you don't fit that description).
And anyway, I'll never get this whole "Reddit say X is good" thing... Which Reddit? There are hundreds of popular music related subreddits that 'share' completely different tastes... If you're gonna hate on something than at least know what you're hating on.
And if you're getting /triggered/ by the opinions on more general music related subreddits, than you're on a way to losing your nerves quickly. Really, it's no different than taking /b/'s opinion on music seriously... just a bunch of pleb teens on both places.
>>66400402
Maybe you should just stay on reddit if you like it so much.
>>66400402
This. I agree.
Give me your reddit account so I can upvote you :^)

it makes me sad that you probably ignore all those great genres and artists because you don't wanna be a pleb. also, if I met anyone who liked more than two of those I'd be excited to talk about music with them.
>>66381259
that's dumb and you know it. spotify and social anxiety, and appreciation of music is totally unrelated to playing it. I've gotta say though, I think my guitar playing influences what music I like a lot. I find that I often think of songs as their guitar parts, and that I listen mostly to the guitar.

It's an important work. Mercury, by writing it, brought academic validity to the rock genre by implementing his knowledge of classical music in such a blatant way by juxtaposing it against both modern rock music and European folk-style music. In other words, it's an intellectual song that's very important for the development of a genre. It's absolutely fine to not like the way it sounds, but it's important to realize that its timelessness and significance isn't without reason.
