Have just watched Brian May and Roger Taylor give a live performance on Britain's Got The X Factor Talent, or whatever it's called. Absolutely superb. The old timers have still got what it takes and made it worthwhile watching the rest of the dross.

I must admit to seeing that. They still have it. Thumbs Up It's a shame John Deacon? (Bass) won't have anything to do with them.

Yeh, same with Freddie Mercury. You never hear of him anymore. I wonder what he's up to these days?

Freddie's death hit him hard, and he retired from music.

QUEEN'S John Deacon has blasted Robbie Williams saying he's not good enough to replace Freddie Mercury and sing with the band.

Robbie was to take Freddie's place with John, Roger Taylor and Brian May to record a special version of the classic hit We Are The Champions.

But John refused because he thought Robbie ruined the song and could never replace Freddie, who died in 1991.

Instead just Robbie, Roger and Brian recorded the track - a No2 hit for Queen in 1977 - at a secret location in Surrey for the soundtrack of new movie A Knight's Tale.

John says: "Roger and Brian got together to do the song with Robbie Williams but I told them I had retired.

"I didn't want to be involved with it and I'm glad. I've heard what they did and it's rubbish.

"It is one of the greatest songs ever written but I think they've ruined it. I don't want to be nasty but let's just say Robbie Williams is no Freddie Mercury. Freddie can never be replaced - and certainly not by him."

John also scuppered a plan for Robbie to front a re-formed Queen with the surviving members.

The bassist made his cutting comments at the Save Popbitch party -- an event to raise money for the internet gossip site. I was surprised to see him at the bash because he hasn't appeared on the London party scene for years.

Always regarded as the quiet one in the supergroup, John claims he retired from music when Freddie died.
