Queen ( like Fleetwood Mac and the Eagles ) play boring, “safe” music everyone has heard a million times ( just cos everyone knows all the words doesn’t make it a great song ) that you put on at a barbie cos you know no one will be offended by it. Well, unless that person actually has their own opinions on music anyway.
You know people who you meet and ask what they listen to and they say “aw, well anything really”.
Those are people who like Queen and the other two bands I mentioned.

ZZ Top are the band that my JK hating, carpenter uncle from Morrinsville would insist on putting on at family do's, but god damn they had some bangers - even the first pick on youtube.
There’s much more variety to ZZ Top than the 80’s synth rock they are most famous for. No band played three piece blues rock better than they did.

Not a fan, this is only song I like and I do reeeeally like it.

He limited things with 'three piece'.
Otherwise we could look at George Thorogood and the Destroyers or even Dr Feelgood as contenders

I could have said “Power trio” and made things more obvious.

@machpants as long as Americans use spotify, Don't Stop Believing will always been these lists.
I think you'll find Africa is a crowd favourite too. I remember on that GnR trip to Singers I do a few years ago, in the baller van, one of the songs we had thumping was Africa. Had the whole procession of people walking back to their cars singing it. After a GnR concert.

@tim Good Queen: News of the world less known songs. 3 through 10.
Spread Your Wings is the best song on that album.
As to the popularity of Don't Stop Believin', there was the final scene in The Sopranos, the song was featured in Monster and got a new audience with Rock of Ages.
