Fried Chicken

sophieandtheorchestra:

‘70s

• every song is an epic with twelve movements and 85 key changes
• occasional operatic shrieking is not uncommon
• hope you’re not a beginner musician because haha good luck buddy
• there’s a bass player but we’re not really sure if he actually exists
• all the songs that your drunk friend tries to cover at karaoke come from this decade so get ready for that
• oh yeah everyone in the band is smarter than you so keep a dictionary handy
• sparkly costumes

‘80s (more like ‘80-’91)

• Mainstream ‘80s Pop Rock™
  
• hey in case you didn’t know freddie mercury was gay here’s hot space which is essentially 40 minutes of club music
• everyone kinda broke off and did solo projects and none of them were good (yes i’m sorry brian even you kinda sucked)
• okay barcelona was a good song but that’s like the best thing to come out of queen solo albums
• hey remember that bass player? he totally exists and he’s in full force
• still quiet tho
• remember the time in 85 when mtv stopped playing queen because they dressed in drag in one of their videos
• there’s a mustache now
• the “no synths” rule is broken so hard
• like i don’t even think they might be giants used as many synthesizers in their first 10 years as queen did in 1984 alone
• 11/24/1991 never forget

oh yeah and the band i guess
