Death to Queen!

|
Terrible news!  It all started in France.

Harry enjoyed sitting in our friend's car with his pal. His pal's dad had a bunch of CDs, one of which was Queen's 'Greatest Hits'.

So...last night, Harry walks into the living room bellowing out ''We are the champions, no time for losers" and then "Another one bites the dust".  Horror of horrors, enough to make even the Great Cthulhu weep.

What a nightmare, my six year old (nearly seven) likes Queen, one of the top three lousiest bands of all time (The Cardiacs and Coldplay being the other two, as you all know).

After all my diligent efforts, playing him The Ramones, Dead Kennedys, Rezillos, this is what happens!

So, what to do?  All out attack on this heresy is tempting but (I suspect) 100% self-defeating. Best just ignore it, it will go away, hopefully.

Yes, it will go away. I can remember thinking 'Bohemian Rhapsody' was the greatest thing EVER when I was 12.  And what happened?  I grew out of Queen, as sensible folk do.  Thank heavens for Johnny Rotten and punk rock, phew!
