Mercurial Michelle
Hi! My name's Michelle. I became a lifelong Queen (and Freddie) fan the instant I saw the film clip for "Princes of the Universe" in 1986, and after seeing the film "Highlander" also became a fan of actor Christopher Lambert. I love music - from early singers like Eddie Cantor to The Monkees, TOTO, REO Speedwagon, Jimmy Nail, Alice Cooper, Jon English and Cliff Richard! I enjoy movie soundtracks, and some of my favourite composers are Vangelis, Miklos Rozsa, James Horner and John Williams. My favourite all-time movie would have to be 1959's Ben-Hur, but I like all sorts of movies - other favourites include Withnail & I, The Three Amigos!, Now Voyager and JAWS. Favourite actors are Bette Davis, Charlton Heston, Gerard Depardieu and James Cagney. I would probably also watch anything that featured Alan Rickman and Martin Short! I love travelling, and at the moment am employed in regional Australia as a museum curator. Oh yeah, I love history too! :-)
Am I the only person who found The Notebook overrated?
I was expecting a lot from this film, as on message boards and on TV, it is held up as being as one of the great romantic films of all time...
I have to say, I was a little disappointed... it was pretty predictable, and imo, the two leads didn't have much chemistry!
No disrespect to people who like it, I was just curious if I'm the only one!?

14 AnswersRock and Pop1 decade agoMost unusual cover of a Queen song...?

I remember when Rolf approached Queen and asked if he could do a tongue in cheek cover of Bo Rap - they told him that he could not, but was welcome to do a serious version and release it as a single (following his great success of Stairway to Heaven). This is the result.
What is the most unusual cover of a Queen (or Freddie) song that you've heard?
Enjoy that unique sound of the wobble board teamed with digeridoo!
