Vote for Queen 3) Queen

To be honest everyone I know likes and has heard of queen, ask someone about heart and they won’t know, heart is not a very worldwide known band, whilst queen is, in my opinion.

AmINumberOneYet

search in youtube "heart barracuda" and then search "queen bohemian rhapsody" and you won`t vote for heart anymore

13?! Seriously! I mean, think of the albums they made. Alive, Destroyer, Rock and Roll Over, Love Gun, come on! Watch Detroit Rock City the movie! Watch it beginning to end. Then let’s see if this band belongs in the top 10, and maybe top 5, but slight chance no. 1.
