I was watching American Idol tonight and was looking for someone talk to about it to no avail...... until I IMed my good ol' frien' Katie GRAY! It was all going swimmingly until I started talking about a guy who did Crazy Little Thing Called Love.

[09:55] quackmanquackman: ew this second guy ruiend the Queen song Crazy Little Thing Called Love
[09:55] pete would eat: lol queen song
[09:56] quackmanquackman: i wish they woudn't sing queen songs on here they RUIN them
[09:56] quackmanquackman: oh there's will
[09:56] quackmanquackman: so yuo can't im
[09:56] quackmanquackman: till his segment
[09:56] quackmanquackman: is over
[09:56] quackmanquackman: ok here you are
[09:56] pete would eat: are you kidding
[09:57] quackmanquackman: you liked him?
[09:59] pete would eat: no.. thats not a queen song
[09:59] pete would eat: originally at least
[10:00] quackmanquackman: yes it is
[10:00] pete would eat: no
[10:00] pete would eat: its not
[10:00] pete would eat: its an elvis song
[10:00] pete would eat: they remade it
[10:00] quackmanquackman: Elvis didn't write any songs
[10:00] quackmanquackman: He only sung and played
[10:01] pete would eat: i never said he wrote it
[10:01] pete would eat: playa
[10:01] quackmanquackman: so then it's not an elvis song..........?
[10:01] pete would eat: you knwo what i mean
[10:01] pete would eat: jerk
[10:01] quackmanquackman: no..... i don't
[10:01] quackmanquackman: you said it was an elvis song.... but it clearly is not
[10:01] quackmanquackman: because he didn't write any songs...
[10:02] pete would eat: aeighankegjnsrhfs
[10:02] pete would eat: he performed it
[10:02] quackmanquackman: So then who wrote it?
[10:02] pete would eat: some dudes
[10:03] quackmanquackman: no
[10:03] quackmanquackman: Freddie Mercury wrote it
[10:03] quackmanquackman: and I just re looked it up in my liner notes, and then went on the internet to double check it
[10:03] quackmanquackman: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crazy_Little_Thing_Called_Love
[10:03] quackmanquackman: The song is written in a rockabilly style, with Freddie singing in an Elvis Presley-esque way. Because of this many Queen fans mistakenly credit Presley for writing the song. (Sidenote: Even certain Elvis Presley fans seem to think this is an Elvis original).
[10:03] quackmanquackman: You're wrong, Queen never did any cover songs on their studio albums.
[10:04] pete would eat: whoa
[10:04] pete would eat: i respectfully step down
[10:04] quackmanquackman: yeah, why in the world would you argue withi me wehn i'm obsessed with Queen.
[10:04] quackmanquackman: now you can be mean like me and yell at peopel for saying crazy little thing called love is an elvis song
[10:04] pete would eat: hahaha

CRAZY LITTLE THING CALLED LOVE IS A QUEEN SONG, NOT AN ELVIS OR WHOEVER ELSE SONG.

I hope none of my LJ readers thought that... anyone?
