    Beatles by a far margin, although I'd put prime Beach Boys (Pet Sounds, Smile) over Beatles.

    I would say the Beatles have far more classics and are technically better.

    I prefer listening to the Queen's classics though, you can actually break them out and not get weird looks.

    Bohemian Rhapsody is a can't miss song. So is We Are the Champions, We Will Rock You, Under Pressure, I Want It All and I Want To Break Free.

    I grew up listening to Queen through my parents and I found my own way to The Beatles. 2 bands I respect greatly.

    I'll say Beatles.

    I'd almost guarantee that the people voting for Queen haven't listened to a whole Queen album (greatest hits excluded).

    Why is that relevant? There are plenty of classic rock bands im a fan of who I've never heard a full album from.

    Love Tom Petty, probably listened to his greatest hits all the way through over 100 times. Still haven't listened to a full album of his, doesn't make me any less of a fan of his.

    Not really sure what your point is. But chances are I have a better, more diverse, collection of classic rock/oldies then you do based MOSTLY on greatest hits collections.

    Didn't know ppl needed to be super fans to have opinions on what bands they prefer.

    You're missing a lot if you're listening to greatest hits collections instead of the original albums, which actually represent most of the bands in the best way possible. Not a bad thing to prefer queen over the beatles, but both of these bands are more than a greatest hits record; the beatles are easily better, but this isn't about who were better I guess?

    The bold part is a ridiculous assumption lol

    No, you can prefer whichever you want. Im making an observation about 2 things, 1. Saying that one band is better than another is kind of ridiculous when you've never heard a full album from the band, and 2. That one of the main reasons the Beatles are a better band than Queen is because Queen has a GOAT collection of singles, but their albums for the most part are full of filler.
