- Well, I didn't just get on the bandwagon with Queen. I was listening to them
- back when BoRap and Fat Bottom Girls, etc. first came out. I do think that
- with the success of Waynes World and yes with Freddie's death, their popularity
- once again surfaced. Hey, why not, I get a kick out of seeing a 10 year old
- kid getting into BoRap and knowing all the words, no less.
