The Bee Gees were my first great musical love. Their songs still make me happy.

Queen. They changed my life and are part of who I am. The Bee Gees are a wonderful disco band but I'd never compare them to Queen!

I don't think you know what "supergroup" means. Or used to mean, anyway.

Queen. More versatile, more depth, higher proportion of great songs, capable of more than disco.

And BTW the BeeGees are getting a biopic next! Which is kind of too bad, the story of Fleetwood Mac or the Mammas and the Pappas would make a better movie.

I didn't realize "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart" and "I Started a Joke" were disco songs.

I love the old Bee Gees (before their disco phase). The harmonies were lovely. I only like a few Queen songs.

I love Queen but the Bee Gees are much better songwriters in my opinion. I prefer their songs by other artists.

Queen were so much gayer!

Actually, they all seemed pretty gay or femme, even though all the BeeGees and three of the Queen guys were straight.

Queens music is more relevant. Bee gees really only have Stayjng Alive, that is the only song of theirs that Everybody knows in 2019.

Queen have Bohemian Rhapsody, We Will Rock You, Another One Bites The Dust , Don't Stop Me Now, We Are The Chanpions, Under Presure, Etc.

T9, Every member of Queen has written at least one number 1 hit for the group. They've all been inducted into the songwriters hall of fame.

I have to give it to the Bee Gees though. I've only heard their dico music growing up but their songs reach across so many genres

I think I like more Bee Gees songs than Queen songs, but Freddie was a lot cooler than any of the brothers Gibb, without question.

Queen had some great anthem rock but too histrionic often times.

The Bee Gees were excellent songwriters with notch harmony covering many decades. There disco was only a small part of their overall songbook but still danceable today.

Barry Gibb was prime mastubatory material in his heyday.

A sexy bear if there ever was one.

Bee Gees. To be honest, I never really liked Queen that much beyond "Under Pressure." Then again, Queen never did anything as purely godawful as the "Sgt Pepper" movie.

I liked the Bee Gees a lot, but Queen did it for me. Freddie's gorgeous voice was one of a kind. He was theatrical, yes, but to me, that was part of his magnetism.

Thank you, R16.

I did not realize that Barry Gibb started out with teeth like Freddie Mercury's!

I always liked Queen because they had two genuine nerds on board, even if they kept that fact out of their publicity during their heyday.

Because if you've ever met an astrophysicist or an electrical engineer, yeah. They're nerds no matter what they play.

Queen never wrote hits for Barbra Streisand or Miss Warwick.

Queen is next to only Beatles when it comes to greatness, pop culture and current popularity. Please dont compare it to the likes of Bees Gees or Fleetwood crap

Bee Gees. I liked their music much better than Queen's. They really were more talented.

Though they had crossover appeal, they were different and most people would say they liked both. Queen was grittier during their earlier years and very different from the BG's.
