beyoncé.
“it was the queens birthday”

“omg hbd beyoncé”
a band that is the very epitomy of kick–ss. they stormed the charts with bohemian rhapsody in the 70’s (the version on the greatest alb-m is 5’58”)this includes rock, ballad and choral music – something not achieved by many people. they shamelessly wrote about the brilliance of gurls with fat -sses -cheers to self tht someone appreciates us!- (fat bottomed girls)”save me” is an anthem for the heartbroken, its a beautiful song. “who wants to live forever” was written in the back of a car on the way home from hospital when freddie mercury discovered he had aids. the lyrics usually mean something if you listen to them deeply enough. and c’mon. if you’re still not convinced they rock, when 15 year olds still listen to we will rock you about ten years after the lead singer died – its gotta be a pretty fantastic achievement.
“mamma, life had just begun, but now i’ve gone and thrown it all away…” beautiful.
a flamboyant h-m-s-xual, usually male, always fabulous.
“fuschia? honey, i’m not _that_ big of a queen.”
the sh-t
queens is greatness
everything that a band should aspire to. amazing vocals, beautiful lyrics (who wants to live forever) and good friends.
i miss freddie mercury, best singer ever!
queen still rocks and will forever!
a rock band-first band to ever write a song about girls with fat -sses (fat bottomed girls) and wrote first song over 5 minutes to ever top the charts (bohemian rhapsody)
