Killer Queen

The American Idols were singing Queen songs this week. Brian May and Roger Taylor were assisting during the rehearsals. Apparently they are on a North American tour with Paul Rodgers of Bad Company.

None of the idols was singing my favorite Queen song: Killer Queen. But the good news was that nobody performed Radio Gaga either.

All this attention for Queen inspired me to buy the 30 year anniversary edition of "A night at the opera". Has it really been thirty years since I bought the vinyl version?

A great site for nostalgic tv stuff is YouTube. They have lots of clips from music shows of the seventies. Guaranteed to blow your mind. Wanna try?

leuk verhaal, tja 30 jaar ik weet vanuit mijn popgeheugen dat het album "an night at the opera"zelfs 31 jaar is, maar ja dat maakt het alleen maar erger ( the single bohemian raphsody was 1976 denk ik). grappig dat jou muzieksmaak op afstan erg lijkt op de mijne ook wat wel en niet leuk is aan queen. over mooie muziek gesproken het 3e nummer van x & y van coldplay (white shadows) is een geweldige nostalgische versmelting met New Order, geweldig nummer!
