Queen

Based on Freddie's behavior on stage, one might conclude that he doesn't have a completely traditional orientation...
so, regarding him as an idol... hmm...
it's good that sexual orientation doesn't affect the quality of the music.

The question isn't about Freddie's behavior on stage or whether he had a traditional or non-traditional orientation, but about the creative work of this band. Although Freddie Mercury's sexual orientation was no secret to anyone. Today, there are many singers with non-traditional orientations, and this does not prevent them from being good performers of good songs. And the behavior of some performers on stage gives ample reason to suspect them of mental inadequacy. IMHO
Queen's creative activity is full of ups and downs. They weren't always understood immediately, but time put everything in its place, and one can only regret that it all ended so sadly. BUT THE SHOW GOES ON...
