  • Sparks and Queen played the Marquee end 1972 and saw each others acts. There was certainly an influence (there is a vid of Sparks on Youtube from this time). At the time, Ron Mael reckoned Queen were going nowhere and asked Brian May to join Sparks (how wrong he was...)

  • The Hitlerian guy can seduce just with the look in his eyes!

  • It's just a good song, I love it, fuck Hitler hahahahahaaahahhaha asshole

  • To the dumb asses who go on about Hitler.

    Ron was referencing Silent Comedy, specifically the adversaries of Chaplin, Keaton and Harold Lloyd, who often looked like this. Ron never spoke on stage. He never even opened his mouth. Like a silent film comedian he communicated with his expressions. Hitler was a frothing at the mouth, madly gesticulating loon.

    And another thing: Sparks weren't GLAM. Russ didn't wear a speck of make up, and the songs are aggressively heterosexual:

    They certainly competed. BTW compare Tearing the place apart (Sparks) and my melancholy Blues(Queen).

    Pretty similar, although both are non mainstream.

  • keyboardist has ten times the charisma of singer, with a tenth of the effort

  • red alert red alert we got a nazi keyboarder red alert red alert arrest that bitch

  • I miss the days when folks werent too proud to lipsyc...any news on the Mael; boys touring?

  • foxy shazam also?
