    Post who you think is the greatest band in the world.
    Make sure you include a reason why.
    Normal forum rules apply.

    I'll start.

    Journey. They have the # 1 song on iTunes.

    Queen. Could virtually do any genre in the most fantastic ways possible, with intensity and charm.

    Nope, I am not kidding. Look up "Science of Fear" on youtube and the music is just awesome

    Yeah... except their Bohemian Rhapsdory got parodied by the Muppets

    Jonathan Coulton for the same reason dancubs chose Queen. That, and a lot of his songs are about nerdy things. Oh, he also wrote "Still Alive" for Portal, which is worth major awesome points in my book.

    i have the album... they're a good band, but to call them the greatest band is going a tad too far imo.

    I don't think Pop Idols or groups qualifies as bands. A Band is an ensemble of musicians. Miley Cryus therefore cannot be a band.
    Even vocal ensembles must have at least be a duo to be considered as a band.
    (also Musicians plays a key factor.

    The greatest band is probably Vienna Philharmonic because they are the best musicians. To even enter Vienna Philharmonic would be almost impossible without real hard work and understanding of music, music theory, music history, and your own instrument. It's really stringent.

    I think it qualifies all the criteria for a band, a very large band (also called Orchestra).
