They have a great lineup. A powerful vocal with great musician that produced a good melody, here it is, the Queen band. Queen band is well known with their hit songs such as Bohemian Rhapsody and We Are The Champion. There are people who claims the strength of the band is on the Freddie Mercury itself but for me, the strength of the band is the band itself; the vocal, melody and the charisma. Freddie Mercury and the band completing eafh other. Until now, it is hard to find the quality that this band has in the new band and artist. There are people who have it but it is minor.
Formed in 1970, the line-up was Freddie Mercury (lead vocals, piano), Brian May (guitar, vocals), Roger Taylor (drums, vocals), and John Deacon (bass guitar). This band played progressive rock, hard rock and heavy metal. Later they become more flexible in their genre and they can play arena rock and pop rock genre. In 1980, they finally became one of the largest stadium rock band in the world. Until now, they are one of the world's best-selling music artists. This is proven with their album sales, 150 million to 300 million records.

Queen is influenced with British rock band in late 1960s to 1970s such as The Beatles and Deep Purple. They can be claimed as flexible because they played various genres such as pop opera, gospel, disco and folk music.
Despite of Freddie Mercury controversion (involvement with LGBT), they still managed to tackle many fans over the world with their music. Here, we can conclude that with a good melody and a vocal, a band can conquer the world with their quality.
