Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I love Queen, but (with the exception of Somebody To Love) I feel like you’ve picked out the worst and most overplayed Queen songs. If you’re open to seeing why folks like them so much, I’d suggest the following (in my order of preference):
There’s a pretty good mix in there. Some are more operatic than others. Some go pretty hard.
This was always one of my favorites, and perfect in The Highlander
Totally agree, that’s how I was first introduced to it.
I'd add Seven Seas of Rhye to that list.
It's also wild to me how many of the most played Queen songs are among their least interesting.
The songs that become popular aren't the "best", they're the ones that cater to the biggest audiences. That often makes them a bit more bland and "safe"
My late best friend was a big fan of "I'm Going Slightly Mad" and he would sing it to himself probably a bit too much.
No Hammer to Fall? Do you even Queen, bro?
You’re so right. I also just realized that I forgot One Vision as well.

Sorry radio gaga is kinda bad. Killee queen is straight fire though.
