Freddie was simply THE greatest singer in Rock's music ever. Nobody comes even close to Freddie. He was THE greatest ever frontman, one of the truly best musicians, an incredible pianist and songwriter
And this is a sample of what happen outside this world of fantasy called interference, on which every single poll is extremely blinded by U2 nonsense

Top 1 : Freddie Mercury
Top 83:Bono
Even the MTV (usually heavily U2ish influenced) ranked Freddie above Bono:

Well, after all Queen has always won everything against U2: Best song (Bohemian Rhapsody http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2002/11/09/entertainment/main528777.shtml) Best Live Gig (Live Aid 1985 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/entertainment/music/4420308.stm) etc, etc
Bono WAS one of the best singers around Unforgettable Fire - Joshua tree era, but then his voice became more and more rough, raspy, fake emotional, artificial, false, strained, careless, weak, etc.
Freddie's voice was simply unbelievable from Queen (1973) to Innuendo (1991) and he sang with AIDS since the mid 80s (he was diagnosed in 1987). Unlike Bono, Freddie ALWAYS gave his best on every Queen song, trying to sound as heaven in every note
