One of the GREATEST bands ever. They made the famous sports anthems "We Will Rock You" and "We Are The Champions" and other hit songs, and they have made lots albums with lots of songs that sound different from one another. Queen was made up of four college graduates who were Freddie Mercury(vocals/piano) who got a degree in art, Brian May (guitar) in astronomy (went back in 2000's for his PhD), John Deacon(bass) who had a degree in electronics, and Roger Taylor (drums) who had a degree in biology and planned to be a dentist. As the years progressed they got bigger and bigger and people enjoyed their live shows (1974-1979). In 1980 their album "The Game" peaked at #1 in the USA because of the singles "Another One Bites The Dust" and "Crazy Little Thing Called Love". Unfortunately their downfall came after their 1982 album called Hot Space pissed alot of fans off since it was disco/funk which ha almost no guitar in it. In 1985 the world witnessed what Queen was capable of during the Live Aid concert, their set is considered probably the greatest live performance of all time. In the late 80's and early 90's the press was after them and were desperate to know if Freddie had AIDS, which he denied. On November 22, 1991 Freddie publicly confessed that he had AIDS and died in his home two days later. About a year later Queen and admirers held a tribute concert which almost everyone with A TV saw.
