Queen is an enormously successful rock and roll band from the 1970s and 1980s. Some of their hits include "Bohemian Rhapsody," "We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions," "Killer Queen," "Another One Bites the Dust," and "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" among many others. Their music is characterized by countless overdubs of guitar and vocal harmonies, often creating a grandiose, operatic feel to their songs.
