Like many of y'all I'm not a huge Queen fan, but this is defo a really great tune and probably their best song: If I have to save one Queen song, it would be "Under Pressure", and it's the Bowie bit I prefer

A total 90's classic. Funny how this song was used in so many movies.

It's a Bowie song in my book

I'm not a fan of the guy but Ben Harper did a very nice piano version. I think the original is untouchable though, Hope Sandoval is such a great singer, she keeps your attention for the whole song.

Nice solo acoustic performance from the big man.

Nice solo acoustic performance from the big man. That's quite a look he's rockin' there. Respect.

I saw them at the attic of a tiny pub in Whitechapel 12 years ago and it was one of the best gigs I ever experienced.

I can honestly say Hansi Kirsch is the best at making no one there jokes. Great Wacken setlist

Jimi Hendrix has to be the most overrated solo artist of all time. All style, no substance. Good at covers but his originals are mostly all self indulgent fret wanking nonsense.

I won't lie, I am offended by this statement. The only indulgence that comes to mind is his cover of the American nstional anthem. However, if you listen to Castles Made Of Sand or The Wind Cries Mary and think there's no substance in there, then I can't help you. And if you think a single note is superfluos in Purple Haze, then you're simply wrong.

He might not be the best songwriter of all time but as a guitarist he's very deservedly put on a pedestal. Fret wanking nonsense? The way he controls the feedback and plays those notes is really unique and he's been a huge inspiration for many non-fret wanking guitarists including Eddie Hazel, John Frusciante, John Squire (at least when it comes to the 1st album) and even Johnny Marr.

Not sure about most overrated solo artist, but to me he definitely belongs on the list of most overrated guitarists. I like a couple of his songs, but otherwise I feel the same way about him as you do. I actually feel that way about a lot of guitarists that are considered "the best".

Like a lot of acts from around that time, Led Zeppelin, The Who, it all just mush mashes into music that is ostentatious and unfeeling. Maybe it’s a generational thing but I can’t ever see it clicking with me. Just don’t get me started on Eric Clapton...

this could be a fun game... The Beatles: Best Song: Take your pick (for me, anything off of Revolver) Worst Song: Wild Honey Pie - I mean, even if you are high it still sounds like rubbish
