I don't think Tyr can be trusted as to what is and isn't similar to Freddie Mercury.

I don't think Queen would prescribed as haven performed Christian rock. And I guess he does look like a white guy. :P

I was a huge Queen fan when I was a kid, still rather fond of them.
I'm not saying this guy isn't alright in his own right but he looks and sounds nothing like Freddie.

I was expecting this to be about the Freddie movie they're making- Sasha Baron Cohen certainly looks like he could look the part. Whether he can sing is unknown,

The chance of him being able to sing like Freddie Mercury is basically zero.

Amusing since Gaga is supposed to have been approached to become the lead singer of Queen!

That would be a disaster of the first order.  Gaga is worthless.

Arrant nonsense!  What Queen was before - with Freddy as lead - was one thing.  What Queen would be under Gaga's leadership would be something else entirely.  The important thing would be that both are separate entities.  I do believe she has the cojones to pull it off. 

This said however - why would Gaga diminish herself by associating with a defunct band?

If it isn't a monstrously ghey lapsed zoroastrian that returns freshly prolapsed rentboys to the brothel madame with the words "this one's broken, get me another one" then it isn't a new Freddy Mercury.

Yeah, he's impressive but not Freddy come again.  There can never be another Mercury.

Ran this through the gibberish-English translator, and it still came out gibberish.   :(

Total breakdown, right? :Embarrass:

Fixing syntax and randoms words: I don't think a reasonable person would describe Queen as a band that performed Christian rock.

I think it's definitely got some themes that could be elaborated on in a sermon.
