How long have you been a fan for: since before I can remember, I grew up listening to them and I don't think there was any one moment I 'became' a fan. I always have been and shall always be.

What's your favorite song: Bohemian Rhapsody, although I do have the occasional dalliance with other songs, this one will always be #1.

What's your favorite Album: A Night at the Opera -This album changed my life after I listened to it the first time.

IYHO, whats the worst album: I cannot say, I haven't listened to all of them yet.

IYHO, whats the worst song: The only song I cannot stand that has the Queen name on it is the remix of Another One Bites the Dust with that crappy rapper on the Greatest Hits 3 album. I hate that song. I hate it. Oh, and anything involving Paul Rodgers....

Did you see them in concert: No, their last tour happened before I was born. I wanted to see Queen + Paul Rodgers, but they never came to a place I could reasonably attend.

If so, how many times: Zero

What is your most vivid memory of seeing Queen in concert? None, unfortunately... ;_;

Who makes you drool: Roger in that sexy striped shirt he wore at Wembley. :inlove: :inlove:

whats your favorite piece in your collection: An 8-Track of Queen II, it makes me laugh and smile every time I look at it.

How big is your collection: Not nearly large enough

Do you have a favorite Queen moment: The entire video for I Want To Break Free

Briefly tell us how you feel about Queen - Words cannot describe the joy and balance their music has brought to my life. Were it not for them, I would not be nearly the person I am today
Even a Strife can be Lovely....

How long have you been a fan for: Not very long, actually.
What's your favorite song: It's hard to say. I tend to listen to Princes of the Universe more than their other songs.
What's your favorite Album:: Queen. It had such a... "Story-telling" feel to it. Maybe not as much as Queen II, but it seems much more balanced to me.
IYHO, whats the worst album:: News of the World. If I had answered this about a month ago, I probably would have said A day at the Races, but ADATR has really grown on me.
IYHO, whats the worst song:: I really hadn't thought about it. Er... You Take My Breath Away. That's the only song that I've ever skipped on a Queen album.
Did you see them in concert:: Outside of video, no.
Who makes you drool: : Well, the band seemed to function as one, so to drool over one more than another seems rather ludicrous to me. I do, however, love Mercury's vocals =3
whats your favorite piece in your collection:: My 'A Night at the Opera' vinyl record. I spent days travelling around/checking the Internet to track it down. I ended up spending $5 on it at some second-hand store which I had passed up several times @_@
How big is your collection:: Well, I have every vinyl album from Queen to Hot Space(except for Queen II), that Platinum Collection for Greatest Hits, the insert from Sheer Heart Attack and a little drawing that I made based off the Hot Space cover.
Do you have a favorite Queen moment: : The opening riff of 'Keep Yourself Alive'. It gives me chills.
Briefly tell us how you feel about Queen: As many artists as I have listened too, I will say that I honestly don't think that Queen is the best out there. They're still my favorite group out there, and I give them props for their uber accessibility.
