"Okay, so just curious. What's people's opinion on their favorite band or groups ever. I'm gonna start it off by saying hands down, nobody comes close to "Queen" and Freedie Mercury for me. They sound better live then most bands sound in the recording studio. Absolute hands down the best band EVER! If you have doubt look up " Somebody to Love" live from Montreal on YouTube. Greatest live performance I've ever heard. Whats your eyes thought an opinion? "Obviously most people's opinion on their own favourite band is going to be that they are the best ever My fav band is Pearl Jam and even though they frikkin awesome I wouldnt say they are the best band ever..there are a lot of other great bands like the mentioned Queen who are pretty awesome too.  | |||

"My first love and for longevity - Thestranglers...... Still going since 1974..... still touring and packing them in. Came out with punk and used the hype to gain notoriety but they were always way ahead of their time. 18 albums later and a little less controversial these days but album wise they have influenced so many others after them. Quite a few of the names already mentioned quote them as a key influence Won’t be everyone’s cup of tea but they’re mine "Saw them in 1993...excellent | |||

"Jasus I couldn't even attempt to pick one, I probably listen to a bit of all below on a daily basis and depending on the day any of them can top the pole Beatles Stones Zeppelin ELO Floyd Radiohead Queen Petty & the heartbreakers Joy division Creedance Metallica Muse Blur Kasabian Chilli's REM SOAD Beach boys Talking heads The cure Aaaggghh my head hurts" Fook it Im gna go listen to some stone roses,,,, | |||
"Metallica all day. The 16 year old me still loves slipknot " Crap choice of music but brilliant profile pic | |||
"Rolling stones Beatles thin lizzy. Elo .queen .anyone but u2" | |||
"I dont think any band comes close to being as influential, or seminal to as many different music genres as The Beatles. Abby road is over 50 years old and still sounds as polished as if it was released today. Maybe Elvis, but he didn't really create anything new. He was just charismatic enough to introduce gospel/rock'n'roll music to whiteys." | |||
Closely followed by, in no particular order:
Pearl Jam
The Frames/Glen Hansard (especially w/Eddie Vedder)
Led Zeppelin
Deep Purple
Metallica
The Black Crowes
Rudimental
Florence and the Machine
Bell X1
Mick Flannery
Vintage Trouble
Stereophonics
All the above have put on amazing live performances and that, to me, is where appreciation becomes awe, which is a wonderful experience | |||

My opinion.
They were very good and produced one of the best live albums ever in Live & Dangerous but they still don't get into my top 5.
Philo was a dude though "I should mention, before someone else does, my opinion is strictly my opinion | |||

No point asking people which band they think are the greatest, if you going to give them stick over their choice.
