Did I say I'm a big group in that message?
I don't think so...!
I only said that... you can't pretend to be "cultured" or know-it-alls and judge something that... you've never listened to or listen to with prejudices..!
That's it..!
A lot of people do this: "Are the DURAN good looking? Then they can't play.."! Or things like that..!
I only say: "enough with the BLINDERS, enough with the PRECONCEPTIONS, enough with the PREJUDICES"!
But in everything! Not just with the DURAN..!
I repeat: many people think they possess ABSOLUTE TRUTH without ever having researched!
Start listening and buying the stuff you judge and you will see that your judgments will be different, whether good or bad, but they will be different and you will be able to speak because you will have informed yourselves..!
Bye bye!

What idiots you are..! You think you hold the ABSOLUTE TRUTH while you know absolutely nothing..! I know people like you..! People who say: "I listen to LED ZEPPELIN (whom, by the way, I adore..) so I know about music.."! And yet you know nothing..! If you read SCARUFFI then.. even worse..! You have to know the history..! It’s not enough to think: "Well, if WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS is sung by everyone.. my messed-up brain tells me it’s commercial, so QUEEN are commercial and I hate them.."! You say that QUEEN are commercial without knowing that before FREDDIE’s death they were hated by critics, without knowing that before FREDDIE died they were semi-unknown here in Italy, without knowing that in the '70s they were a Hard-Rock band, plain and simple..! And yet because of the media and the major labels trying to exploit them as much as possible.. now you consider them just commercial! Just because, thanks to you, only their most commercial songs are known! There must be a reason why QUEEN 2, for instance, is the favorite album of BILLY CORGAN, KURT COBAIN, MOTLEY CRUE.. etc.. etc.. etc..! What idiots! And I bet you criticize the commercial side of Queen, and then listen to that crap from U2.. who are 50 times more commercial and don’t even do Rock..!

Apart from BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY, which I don't like (heh...), the album is obviously a masterpiece..!
Much better is QUEEN 2.. but this one is also great!
And those who vote negatively on this album.. it means they have nothing better to do all day than to bash albums and artists they likely don't know or don't listen to properly..!
Regards..!

When a person responds like you just did, it means they have no arguments to counter..!
Amen..!

There are too many people who believe they possess the absolute truth of music... without really knowing anything or bothering to inform themselves...! You can't criticize Duran without knowing who Cuccurullo is or without being aware of other milestones in their history...!
I know a lot of people who hate and criticize DURAN, but at least these are all people who own their entire discography and know the ins and outs: in short, they are music aficionados...!
How many of those who are criticizing have listened to all the DURAN albums? How many of those who are criticizing speak without being influenced by the "beauty" factor of DURAN? How many of those who are criticizing are just repeating what they’ve heard??
Honestly... I think it's 90% of those who are criticizing...!
There are too many people who think they have the ABSOLUTE TRUTH about everything...! But before throwing out judgments... you need to know and demonstrate your knowledge of the history... everything that the Duran have done and everything that surrounded Duran during that period...! If you don’t know who Bryan Ferry is, what New Wave is, or who the New Romantics are... well... you might want to hold off on making judgments..!

What idiots you are..!
You think you hold the ABSOLUTE TRUTH while you know absolutely nothing..! I know people like you..! People who say: "I listen to LED ZEPPELIN (whom I adore, by the way..) so I know about music.."! And instead, you really know nothing..!
If you read SCARUFFI then.. even worse..! You need to know the history..! It's not enough to think: "Well, if WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS is sung by everyone.. my warped brain tells me that it's commercial so QUEEN are commercial and therefore I hate them.."!
You say QUEEN are commercial without knowing that before FREDDIE's death they were hated by critics, without knowing that before FREDDIE's death here in Italy they were semi-unknown, without knowing that in the '70s they were a Hard Rock band, period..!
And instead, because of the media and the majors trying to exploit as much as possible.. now you believe they are only commercial! Just because, thanks to you, only the most commercial songs are known!
There must be a reason this album is the favorite of BILLY CORGAN, KURT COBAIN, MOTLEY CRUE.. etc.. etc.. etc..!
What idiots! And I bet you badmouth the commercial side of Queen, and then listen to those pieces of trash U2.. who are 50 times more commercial and don't even play Rock..!
