BEST VIDEO EVER
In responding to the fail over on QOTW, I found this gem.
Why has nobody ever talked of the video with Fred and the rest of Queen grooming a boy on the internet, then bursting out of his wardrobe and kidnapping him.
This was BEFORE the internet!

First time I'd heard that song...
...is it just me, or does the tune sound an awful lot like the Ghostbusters song?

Update: Oh god, I've just seen them all walk out of the wardrobe. There's something deeply wrong going on here...

Queen.
Best band. Ever. No contest.

I'm afraid that my daughter loves X-Factor and I came close to throwing the TV out of the window when the Stacey Solomon female *murdered* Who Wants To Live Forever.

EDIT: Dad in the video looks suspiciously like P. Mandelson.

She was one of the better singers on that rubbish
and was so completely stupid and daft that I found myself falling in love with her.

(Halfy By light alone, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:44, Reply)

you did
and I forgot that I hadn't responded, and have just done so
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:45, Reply)

^That
I do agree with the sentiments about Queen being on the X-Factor though. That was fucking wrong. Especially when those twins raped Under Pressure to DEATH.
( Devil_In_Tights the *real* DiT!, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:41, Reply)

I wish more than anything on earth
that someone would rape those twins, under pressure, to DEATH.

£100
and a bag of grapes and it can be done
(Halfy By light alone, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:44, Reply)

we could easily raise that kind of money
there are millions out there who would chip in
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:45, Reply)

10,000
people each paying a penny.

The bag of grapes is quite important as well though, could be a deal breaker if I don't like em
(Halfy By light alone, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:48, Reply)

Hmm.
I'm afraid that my view of those who participate in the X-Factor is simply that they have forfeited their right to a peaceful existence and thus - in the darkened hall where they are miming as puppets on the Svengali-string of Cowell (b'tard) - snipers should be on the tops of the seating ready to:

(a) shoot competitors, single shot, in the forehead (two for Ms Solomon, given the size of her nose, and the second shot to her larynx)

(b) shoot "judges" - especially Cowell, but Cheryl Cole close behind

Outside said hall should be machinegunners ready to machinegun to DEATH the audience.
(Medical_Male Say aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:47, Reply)

I'd like to be 'close behind' Cheryl Cole

I know someone who didn't know, until last week, that Freddie's dead.
Nor did she know he had the AIDS. Bless, her face when she found out. I didn't have the heart to tell her that he was gay, too.
( Devil_In_Tights the *real* DiT!, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:36, Reply)

I knew someone who's sister didn't know he was gay
She cried when we told her.

I know this guy from London who frequents the same online community as his wife
she doesn't know he's gay, just thinks he has a special friendship with a guy who looks like the laughing cavalier
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:40, Reply)

I'm confused
As to whether this is genuine, or a shot at DiT?
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:42, Reply)

maybe it's both ;-)

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:42, Reply)

Hmm, good point

(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:42, Reply)

Little does he know, she's wants to be a lesbian like all her online friends.

( girlinthehole, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:42, Reply)

HEY.
It's not gay to make a newtons cradle out of testicles.
( Devil_In_Tights the *real* DiT!, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:43, Reply)

Oh no, not at all DiT
It's as manly as fixing a car, honest.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:44, Reply)

I think we all know what goes on in car workshops.
All men, getting greased up together. Gay.
( Devil_In_Tights the *real* DiT!, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:45, Reply)

I'm not the one that mentioned workshops and grease
That's your mind's doing, that is. Gay.

Wouldn't you? Dirty boy.

Wouldn't you?

No, I'm not. You're stuck with your wife, I'm afraid.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:53, Reply)

I think I can live with that.
It'll be hard, but I think I can.
( Devil_In_Tights the *real* DiT!, Fri 15 Jan 2010, 13:54, Reply)

Good save
I think she should buy that.

I bet it will

believe it or not
not everyone is familiar with the work of Curtis Mayfield.

shocking I know

I heard that
but discounted it on account that it was so fantastical it must have been nonsense.
