Who do you think is the better band-Zepplin or Queen?

Question

how do you think is better, Led Zepplin or Queen?

Do you think Freddie Mercury's singing beats Robert Page's vocal abilities?

Do you think "Immigrant Song" beats "Best Friend"?

Basically who do you think is the better of the two bands and why?

Answer 1

Led Zeppelin is a better "band"

Freddie Mercury is a god like vocalist

Immigrant Song is good, but they have much better ones, same with Queen and Best Friend. It depends on my mood to which I prefer.

It's a tough choice, I don't think I can make, they both influenced so many people.

Answer 2

I Love them both, but they are so different, I couldn't choose one over the other.

Freddie - awesome vocal chops; better live presence

Page - better gritty rock voice

Queen has more varied-style songs, Zeppelin rocks harder

Queen had a poster of a nude bicycle race in one of their albums.  that may tip the scales ;)

Answer 3

Altogether Zep over Queen. However, you have a point Freddie Mercury probably has a slightly stronger voice than Robert Plant.  Jimmy Page Vs. Brian May on guitar, probably closer than most people would like to admit, but Page wins by a nose. Jonh Deacon Vs. John Bonham on drums?  I wouldnt even embarass John Deacon by putting him in the same room let alone in a competition with Bonham. Roger Taylor Vs. John Paul Jones?  C'mon  JP any day.  

Both bands have similar song styles, very elaborate and theatric, and surprisingly Queen holds their own but Zep rocks harder when push comes to shove.

Immigrant Song Vs. Best Freind?  Seriously?  Will ANYONE say Best Freind?  Anyone at all?  Doubtful.

Answer 4

Immigrant song and best friend aren't even comparable. But freddie Mercury's voice is ALOT better. Overall Led Zeppelin is a better band but Queen is a  lot more original.

Answer 5

Both are great and i have to say both are in my top ten bands but Led Zeppelin is the best.
