I’ve never gotten the love for the band Queen

They had a few good songs, and a Freddy had an operatic voice, but I don’t get chills or even much enjoyment.

I’ve seen Queen the musical and the movie.

I’ve even worked a Queen concert.

I just don’t get the hype. The Beatles is a hyped band where I get the love. Their songs are magical.

Its funny how music hits people differently. I would say I've never gotten the love for the Rolling Stones.

They held the mantle of the biggest Rock and Roll band in the world for a few years in the late 1970's and early 80's.

Freddie Mercury is widely regarded by Rock and Roll aficionados as the best singer in this genre.

I remember the basic 'Another One Bites the Dust' being played over and over on the radio as a kid.

They were subsequently dethroned by Van Halen in a epic battle.

I think they have some incredible songs and I understand why people like them. Some of their main hits are so overplayed that I personally do not enjoy them anymore.

I love the start of Under Pressure and the first verse, but then it goes off on weird tangents.

I don't like Queen or the Beatles.
