It ain’t that Queen never toured that album
It ain't their fortune and fame
It ain't that the lead singer was dying from AIDS
It ain't the Hollywood game
Its not that Freddie was barely alive
That’s not what stopped Queen from performing Innuendo live
Its just Chris Daughtry wasn’t singing
Oh my god can he croon
Cuz when Chris Daughtry is singing
Makes Freddie sound like a buffoon
Yes if only Queen had a powerhouse front man like Chris Daughtry to mangle the opening of songs and then baldly go where no performer has gone before. I don’t watch American Idol (after the first forty seven episodes of each season where they tell people how hard they suck) and I knew I should have steered clear of the Queen tribute show. I just thought it would be the horribly inadequate renditions of my favorite songs that would upset me, not the judge’s blatant disrespect for the dead who just so happens to be one of the best front men of all time. (And sorry to single out Paula Abdul in this rant, because my anger began when in the pre song interview Chris mentioned the fact that Queen never preformed this song live. I just chalked him up to not being a queen fan. And Paula is really nothing more than bulimic wall candy. Aren’t randy and Simon supposed to e in the music industry? And Simon is an Englishman! Shouldn’t he stand up for all that is good and true about English pop music?)
