Ultimate Rock God (well, 3rd ultimate)

Queen legend Freddie Mercury has been voted the Ultimate Rock God in a survey of 4,000 rock fans by internet market research website www.onepoll.com.

Flamboyant front man Mercury, who sold 300 million records before he died in November 1991 of bronchopneumonia induced by HIV, beat Elvis Presley into second place.

The tragic star formed Queen in 1970 with guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor who were later joined by bass player John Deacon.

During his 21 years with the band Mercury, who was born Farrokh Bulsara in Zanzibar in 1946, was renowned for his charismatic stage presence.

American rock icon Jon Bon Jovi came third.

I'm sorry, but the onepoll people obviously didn't let the Bon Jovi Nation know about this poll because Freddy Mercury, although he was a great singer, is NOT the ultimate Rock God.
