What exactly do you have against Freddie Mercury and, in the face of all the evidence to the contrary, what has prompted you to make a fool of yourself on two separate threads? An opinion is one thing, but declaring one of the world's greatest singers average as a statement of fact is frankly dumb.

To be fair his Mercury opinion is now more of a gag than a discussion point. I don't agree with [MENTION=5203]OzMike[/MENTION] but I do now expect his one liner whenever there's a singer, Queen, music discussion.

Thanks Herr T. Must admit that during my travels around NSC, I hadn't noticed this fine example of the one liner before. However, he has kindly let me know in a separate post that I am the idiot with a sense of humour bypass, so I'll certainly look out for more examples of his comedy talent in future.:wink:

I went to The Funky Fish a couple of days after Nina Simone threw a seven and they played a few of her songs that I wasn't familiar with. I had a couple of her albums and gave them a proper listen the following day and realised I had overlooked an incredible talent. Over the following months I got pretty much every studio album and a couple of live recordings. Now firmly one of my favourite artists.

sounds like an interesting person too. I'd like to read about her life (when I have more time)
