Bigger than Elvis, bigger than The Beatles! After some thought, my impression of Freddie is that of the largest, grandest finale skyrocket in a pyrotechnic show. It climbs the highest, it rises with the most speed, yet that speed is somewhat camouflaged by its towering height, then it ultimately explodes with the most glorious display conceivably possible, leaving the audience with a suspended moment of silent awe, realizing that the end of the show has arrived, leaving us in insane appreciation of the show, yet, always, always wishing for more. Thank you, Freddie!
Freddie Mercury wasn't just a show man. Freddie was a genius. The Queen's heart and driving force. Who with his talent worked for the success of the band and created beautiful music! it was an irreplaceable and unparalleled talent!
I saw Queen during their rise in popularity in the US. They were quite successful in Europe and Japan from 1974-1976. They toured the US with Mott the Hoople first and then in 1976 Thin Lizzy supported Queen. In support of News of the World record they toured Canada/US. My first Queen concert (I was a fan from 1974) on November 23, 1977 was in Philadelphia, at the Spectrum. What a show that was!! I’ll never forget seeing them live for the first time. It was not the last however, 12 times total, the last being at Wembley Arena, in London, 7.11.86. I saw Queen 4 times in Philadelphia, 5 times at Madison Square Garden, 1 time in Maryland, 1 time in NJ, and 1 time in London. I have a very special gift from Freddie Mercury. That first Queen concert we had 4th row seats. I couldn’t control my emotions. I was hysterical for 1 hour and a half. After Love of my Life, the beginning of ‘39 started and Freddie put on this top hat came to the edge of the stage and threw it directly to me. I caught it as I was standing on my chair. I held onto the hat as people wanted to see it. I held it with two hands and proceeded to let people sitting in the 3rd and 5th rows have a look at it. The very best time during their US tours was when I got backstage on July 24, 1982 at the Spectrum. I was with a group of 18 Queen friends at this show. It was a very hard decision as who to take backstage with me. Only 4 of us could so of course I just had to and my friends Laura, Maureen, and Mark. We met all 4 of the band with Freddie being the last. John was a short meet and greet, Roger was very compliant and we spent 10 minutes with him. He was with Dominique his wife at the time. Basically, we were a bit star struck but he was very down to earth and seemed like a jokester. Brian also was so cool and very sweet. Brian had two young girls with him (not sure who they were) but they were very nice. Brian being my favorite of the band I asked him “Will you ever finish your thesis so you can be called Dr. Brian May?” He looked smiling “I will some day just not sure right now”. Maureen and Laura were quite with Brian but not with Roger. Mark asked Brian about his guitar (being a musician himself) and how long it took to build it. Brian told him in about 1 minute. We thanked him for taking time. The last was Freddie, when he came out of his dressing room, I lost it. I cried for a minute with my hands covering my face. I had to compose myself or I would have blown my chance to actually talk to the man. Right away he said hello to us with 2 men next to him and 2 men behind at a distance. I managed to say “The show was spectacular”. Freddie said “Thank you darling”. Laura said “We’ve always seen the best concerts except when this girl went off in 1977”. Pointing to me. Freddie looked at me for a minute and said “I do remember a few years ago here in Philadelphia a girl was so uncontrollable I felt like giving her a beer or something. Was that you?” I said “Oh yes it was. I just couldn’t control myself”. Maureen said “In 1980 we were playing musical chairs because no one wanted to sit next to her”. He laughed and said “I like musical chairs”. And we laughed. Mark said “We will be in NYC on Tuesday and Wednesday” (July 27 and 28, 1982). Freddie said “Do you have good seats”. Mark said “Oh yes, 2nd and 3rd row”. He said “I cannot do better than that”. Freddie shook Mark’s hand. Maureen said “This was the best night of my life”. He smiled a bit and shook her hand and Laura’s. Freddie took my hand and kissed it. Then waved bye and proceeded to the 4th limo waiting to exit the Spectrum. John was in the 1st, Roger in the 2nd, Brian in the 3rd waiting for Freddie to get in his limo and get out into the night. It was 2:28 am when the 4 limos proceeded out of the Spectrum with the 4 of us walking behind the cars as they made their way to the street. Our 14 other friends waiting for us were so excited just to see the limos leaving the venue that one of my friends Diane was peering into Brian’s limo windows and then followed Freddie’s part way down South Broad Street. LOL. What an amazing time seeing Queen 12 times in my life. Just amazing and a beautiful experience being a loyal and faithful fan. 💜🎧🎤💜
Thank you for telling your story. You are really lucky to have seen Quееn so many times and met in person and talked to the four of the group. Great. I wanted to be in your place and be lucky to know Freddie. I've only seen Roger and Brian with Adam Lambert and once again Brian with Kerry Ellis. But it's not the same without Freddie.
gabyy556 Thank you. Did you ever see Queen with Freddie? I was very blessed to see them 12 times and each time there is a story to tell in itself. I was determined to meet them and my dream came true. 💜💜💜
@@janelle7668 Unfortunately I haven't seen Freddie . In my (former) communist country Bulgaria concerts by foreign groups were banned and I was not born ☹️
@@janelle7668 Yes I watched them in 2016 , they had a concert in my country with Adam and again in 2016 I was at Brian's concert with Kerry Ellis . And did you watch them?
Queen begins and ends with Freddie. He embodied the band's identity, it's triumphs and failings and he was the psyche whose loss it couldn't survive. He was more than just a singer. He was a charismatic genius, not afraid to go after what he wanted. He inspired not only as a writer and as a musician and as a performer but ultimately as a man. He died young, he lived his life to the full and he crammed in an amazing amount of music. More than most people could in five lifetimes. What a brave and courageous man. He never dies because he lives in his songs and our hearts. Love you...Xoxox ❤
roberto carlos The group Queen the composite today, just repeated their Live Aid concert to help Australian firefighters as most are volunteers. 3000 of them. Raising $9 million. Fire Fight concert featuring the best of Australian music. About 10 hours
I remember watching their performance with about a dozen friends. When Queen finished their set, our jaws were all on the floor. I don't remember which band followed them but, God, what a horrible position to find yourselves. Talk about a no win situation...
Rest In Paradise beautiful Freddie 🎹🎤♥️👑🎸🥁 I love you Brian ♥️ I love you Roger ♥️ I love you Deaky ♥️ Thank you for all the joy you brought the world 🌎👑
My sister's son born in 2019 ...with in 6months old he never sleep without bohiman song....n now he started singing mamaaaaaa...uooooooouuuu ....now he is just one year old.....we love Freddie.....from South India 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
I think that in itself is totally amazing!!! It goes to show you how powerful and influenced the human psyche is. I believe with every fiber iam this sweet baby was already embracing every fiber of this with every essence of his spirit and soul!!!! Absolutely beautiful!
When ,at 70 yrs old, I really discovered Freddy Mercury I was ASTONISHED BY HIM. IN 1980 I was in India, I was not into Bands. S, I missed QUEEN. IM SO SAD THAT I NEVER SAW FREDDY LIVE. WHAT A PHENOMENON. WHAT A GIFT FROM GOD HE WAS. I ADORE QUEEN AND I ADORE FREDDY MERCURY.
Whenever I hear Freddie’s music, it transforms me to another place. I love him so much and he makes me very happy. He is my happy place. I do feel his spirit alive in this world . He is very special💖
Freddy Mercury was an Iconic figure ❤ and the Greatest Showman ever 😂 He will always be remembered forever and always ❤️ such a loss is heartbreaking 😢❤
I've been ill for the past 4 months and Music in general has given me strength on days when I had none...given me hope when all seems hopeless...and has given me a reason to push on..God Bless to anyone going thru difficult times...
Freddie and Queen blew Wembley Stadium, up to the Heavens!! They were absolutely Phenomenal, and they all were the 4 Talented, Magnificent, Energetic, and Legendary Geniuses of Rock in Roll History that will always Remain Timeless. Queen was absolutely, a Very Special Blessing for all of Us!!! Thank you so very much, Freddie Mercury, 🎶🎤🎹👑 Brian May, 🎶🎸 Roger Taylor, 🎶🥁 and John Deacon 🎶🎸 for all the Very Special Years and Memories, that you gave to Us, that will Remain in this World, Forevermore. 💕💕💕💕 From the USA 💖🇺🇸 June 9, 2022
every time I watch that on my dvd I feel like I am there in the audience his presence just comes right through the tv I envy all those who got to be their in person !!!!
There never was nor will there ever be another precious soul like Freddie Mercury on this earth. Thank you Bri, Rog & Deaky for keeping him alive even now. Roger once said in a recent interview “ i truly hope we are making him proud...” Rog- I know our boy with the magic voice and a heart of pure gold is looking down with a smile, more proud of his little brothers than you’d imagine. 👑 #LongLiveQUEEN
Even now I still can't believe we lost such a legendary singer and person 😢 i been listening to Queen and Freddy's voice since I was little. I mourned him after he passed away 😢
As a Pink Floyd fan i must say Queen was the best band of all time. Everybody was a hitwriter. Freddie a perfect singer and performer, Brian a genius guitarist, Roger a good singer and drummer. John a gentlemen, true and quiet writer. Thanks a lot for this time.
When you see these videos of queen and freddy mercury they were so young and immature. Later when the 80s came you can see a transformation and maturity especially in their interviews. Bless queen.
Was lucky to see them come to Vegas in 78. At the time I was in the Queen fan club so at 16 my dream came true to see my heroes! For another amazing voice check out Marc Martel, it's like seeing and hearing Freddie's brother... if he had one.
Jim Dale I will do that. I never got to see Queen. I was a young gal with an old soul lol! I guess I still am since I’ve held onto Queen as my favorite band since I found them in middle school.
30 years almost and still invokes such feeling of loss....Freddie... no words. Your music, the music of Queen, makes me happy every single day - I literally smile and feel a sense of happiness when a Queen song starts...thank you, Queen, thank you, Freddie. Wishing John continued peace. Thank you Roger and Brian for keeping your catalog live! Please continue to tour! Please come to America at least once more -- but even more and more would be appreciated. As long as you're enjoying, we are here to take it all in!
You wrote it very nicely, I agree with you, and I share the same feelings with the Queen group every day I listen to it and every day it makes me happy and gives me incredible positive energy.
Ladypilot Olson it’s sad that we don’t see that type of talent nowadays , with all this technology and music with no meaning , no soul or heart . I might be wrong but i don’t think we will see singers like Freddie Mercury again ( among others from the past )
@@marcusmachado670 It's bc today is easiest through the technology. Companies follow specific formulas and people are used , they don't have something better to do a comparison..
I've watched more Queen and Freddie documentaries than I can count and every time I watch one I'm struck by how much Freddie's friends loved him, and still do. It's a beautiful thing to see and it tells me so much about the person he was.
Oh, Freddie. I hope you know somehow that you left many people very happy after meeting you. It would be several years before I "discovered" you, but now I wish I could reach out and hug you, and help you know that you're loved.
I was Lucky to see Queen in the late 70's great Legends and Freddie Knew we all Loved him such a performer, very sadly missed. Enjoy their music the best in the World. Queen are coming to NZ in Feb next year, sadly i can not afford a ticket . Hope they have a great concert in Dunedin.
@@valwalker6773 You are really lucky! I was at Kerry Ellis 'concert with Brian May of 2016 and Queen with Adam Lambert also in 2016 but I'd give almost anything to see Freddie in concert .
He died when i'm 7mos old.. but hearing Queen's songs.. feels like living at their time.. so pure, eversongs every lyrics is so heartwarming.. I love Queen's forever!! Freddie, roger, brian, deaky❤❤
I watched Live Aid 1985 via tv when I was just 10 years old. I sang radio Gaga, bohemian rhapsody etc as if I watched it live. My mother thought i was just crazy at that time, i sang and followed what the audiences did. Aahh...those were the days
All of them were geniuses, and the other guys shouldn’t be forgotten, but when Freddy is on stage, who can see anyone else? He will never be forgotten, NEVER
I am always in awe of people with such great talent and wonder how many undiscovered talents are out there that never get an opportunity? I found my way here after watching Rocketman first and thinking Elton was the greatest showman......THEN I saw Bohemian Rhapsody........WOW, I never realized what a gift Freddy Mercury was!
Watching this video, Live Aid & other Queen performances, has left me happy & sad at the same time. Goes to show LIFE is a real GIFT & best lived out loud!
The official video footage of live aid brings me to tears each and every time. and when they had it as the end piece for the Bohemian Rhapsody movie...i sobbed through the whole thing. I was born a year before freddie died, but I would have given anything to have been born in the late 70s/early 80s just so I could have seen that performance first hand.
I consider myself one of the BIGGEST Freddie Mercury and Queen fans..I absolutely love these 4 guy's,and I'm always looking for anything new... Freddie,Brian, Roger and John,you are Rock God's, yesterday, today and tomorrow...Love from Ohio!!!
I grew up listening to Queen and I love everything they ever did. I also love Freddie's solo projects and colabs. The Barcelona album he did with Montserrat was absolutely brilliant!!! It showed how versatile he truly was... priceless. Rest In Peace dear Freddie...we love you and miss you so much. 💔
Freddie appreciated his band mates, the fans and MUSIC and performing! I think he loved each of his Queen mates and that gave the world fabulous Queen. He did his best to help them stay together. The band, talent unmatched, determination unwavering, wonderful human beings, those 'boys' great icons for the young, middle aged and any lovers of inspiring music - now proving to be Queen forever.
Freddie...I grew up with you. I was a girl 12 years old when mum gave her a cassette of Queen for her birthday. Ever since then I have loved your voice, persona, charisma but most of all I loved the words in your songs. Queen music helped me trough thick and thin too many times. So truly there will never be any greater entertainer than you were. The whole lot of you. So wherever you are I hope you're rocking the stage. Bri, Roger and Deaky...we all love you for keeping Freddie with us still. ❤️❤️❤️
The natural connect with the audiences,the chemistry is unparalleled. Selfless wanted people to be happy. Music in general relieves stress but after watching the performance of Freddie,i firmly believe he turned it into enjoyment.
Freddie was someone you wanted to see in a concert. He had a power only select artists had in the 70’s & 80’s. Elvis was the king of rock, and Freddie was his Prince of Rock. He influenced countless artists and still influences artists today. Freddie was the greatest of all time and will remaine the GOAT!
I remember my eldest brother listening to Queen, and 'Another one bites the dust' I think was one of his favourites, he played it a lot. Queen have been there throughout my childhood, and still is. Legendary musicians with fantastic music
São Paulo Stadium,1981 - was one of the best days of my life!! I was an ordinary 16 years old girl, no money, living in a city far from the Stadium, but I made it !! What a beautiful day!!
Group had never before come to Turkey. But there are many fans in my country. It's not possible to dislike Frediee. I know it's too late to see him, but it's not too late to love him. I feel like we've grown up together. Now I'm getting older with him. If this isn't magic, what is it?
Aynur Bas I know. Queen had never before come to Turkey, only with Paul Rodgers. In my country with Adam Lambert 2016 and Brian May 2016 again - with Kerry Ellis. I was there. I'м from Bulgaria.We are neigbors.
I may not have to money to collect a lot if Queen / Freddie Things but I to do consider myself the BIGEST FREDDIE/Queen fan ever !! Even today there is NO ONE LIKE FREDDIE AND NEVER WILL BE !! RIP OUR LEGEND!!
ONE of the best documentaries on the best of men and music and easily the best rock band. Freddie's legacy and music will last into the next century. I haven't met anyone young or old, male or female, who hasnt heard of Queen or their music. It's amazing. His death has left a gaping hole in so many lives.
Freddie is the Persian popinjay that on its way to mars, flew beyond the skies. He is the star that illuminates us with every smile, every gesture. His charisma is a waterfall, we bath in its lake. He lives forever in our hearts with the magic of his songs.
A comment I heard in an interview with a college GF was, (I paraphrase) " I thought 2 things when he died - 'well you did in life what you said you'd do and now you are on your way of becoming a legend.'" He really had done the musical creations he had a heart for once he had conquered the opera world. He was a trailblazer for others in so many ways in the musical world.
Beyond the voice, beyond the charisma, his and the band’s greatest talent portrayed through the lyrics was to love ourselves and each other because we are all the champions of the world.
He can only be described as totally magnificent; he had a once in a lifetime voice. I could listen to his music all day long. You never tire of it; it's as though he is singing directly to you, each individual person. A voice like his has to.go down in music as LEGEND because it cannot be imitated Freddie will be remembered by every generation; you only had to hear him once and you go back looking for more. The.world really lost a Great singer and showman ; but most of all we lost a great human being.
“Bohemian Rhapsody” proved Freddie was a musical genius! “Innuendo,” the song and album, was another example all 4 members were musical geniuses. They took music to a unique level no ones been able to duplicate or ever will! 😊♥️
Freddie wanted to be remembered as a person who made people happy.
Tens of millions of us Freddie.
He did.
he was that and much more !!! job done !!
Billions
TEARS!!!!
There are great singers that can entertain stadiums but when Freddie sang he moved nations.
‘I am not going to be famous’....’I AM GOING TO BE A LEGEND’...!!!
Done it Freddie...thanks so very much
Bigger than Elvis, bigger than The Beatles!
After some thought, my impression of Freddie is that of the largest, grandest finale skyrocket in a pyrotechnic show. It climbs the highest, it rises with the most speed, yet that speed is somewhat camouflaged by its towering height, then it ultimately explodes with the most glorious display conceivably possible, leaving the audience with a suspended moment of silent awe, realizing that the end of the show has arrived, leaving us in insane appreciation of the show, yet, always, always wishing for more.

Freddie has helped me cope with my anxiety and depression through his music, and just seeing him laugh, smile, perform...it's enough for me.
Juanita Pride , God bless you Juanita, keep listening to Freddie 😁🌹
I feel the same way you do
The power of music

Freddie is pure LOVE and life 💕💕💕
RIP my Freddie Mercury. 🙏 🙏🙏
Farrokh Bulsara (Freddie) was and still is The Best. God Bless him😇. He was god sent.
Freddie Mercury wasn't just a show man. Freddie was a genius.
The Queen's heart and driving force.
Who with his talent worked for the success of the band and created beautiful music!
it was an irreplaceable and unparalleled talent!
Yes absolutely! 👍❤️

I saw Queen during their rise in popularity in the US. They were quite successful in Europe and Japan from 1974-1976. They toured the US with Mott the Hoople first and then in 1976 Thin Lizzy supported Queen. In support of News of the World record they toured Canada/US. My first Queen concert (I was a fan from 1974) on November 23, 1977 was in Philadelphia, at the Spectrum. What a show that was!! I’ll never forget seeing them live for the first time.

As a Pink Floyd fan i must say Queen was the best band of all time. Everybody was a hitwriter. Freddie a perfect singer and performer, Brian a genius guitarist, Roger a good singer and drummer. John a gentlemen, true and quiet writer. Thanks a lot for this time.
Yes I agree with you.Queen was the best band and Freddie great performer.
Pink Floyd were also a great band. There is a good reason why bands such as Queen, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin quite remains popular.
@@ZENOBlAmusic I agree with you. That its true.
When you see these videos of queen and freddy mercury they were so young and immature. Later when the 80s came you can see a transformation and maturity especially in their interviews. Bless queen.
Queen is a great band, but Pink Floyd are the best
28 years later and he is probably even more loved and appreciated now than ever before!
❤️
💜💜💜
As he fully deserves. What gifts he gave us. We love you Freddie❤
The sad part is no matter who it is that's dead and gone they're always appreciated and Missed more 😔

_WOW .Freddie Mercury Queen was peerless_ Charisma he's simply just so so so GOoD
They killed him by aids treatment AZT Keymo.
Freddie is one of a kind....never will be anyone like him!!!!
A voice from heaven, so unique, so special....I miss him so much.😥
Yes, Freddie is very special! I miss him so much also 😭
An angel gone too soon. I’ll never forget the day he died. 🙁
@@angij8288 Me too 😢💔
Was lucky to see them come to Vegas in 78. At the time I was in the Queen fan club so at 16 my dream came true to see my heroes!
For another amazing voice check out Marc Martel, it's like seeing and hearing Freddie's brother... if he had one.
Jim Dale I will do that. I never got to see Queen. I was a young gal with an old soul lol! I guess I still am since I’ve held onto Queen as my favorite band since I found them in middle school.
No human can take away the fact that Freddie Mercury was the Greatest Vocalist of all time..n 175.folks here just said they ain't from earth
Freddie ... a fabulous shooting star in the eternal firmament... ☄
30 years almost and still invokes such feeling of loss....Freddie... no words. Your music, the music of Queen, makes me happy every single day - I literally smile and feel a sense of happiness when a Queen song starts...thank you, Queen, thank you, Freddie. Wishing John continued peace. Thank you Roger and Brian for keeping your catalog live! Please continue to tour! Please come to America at least once more -- but even more and more would be appreciated. As long as you're enjoying, we are here to take it all in!
Same here darling
You wrote it very nicely, I agree with you, and I share the same feelings with the Queen group every day I listen to it and every day it makes me happy and gives me incredible positive energy.
I have never seen anyone have as many looks as Freddie through out the years. Just one more unique qualitie of the beautiful Freddie Mercury
I’ve said it a million times ..Dear God we have many good singers we can send to you so please could you send Freddie back. Amen
Only if that was possible :(
Ladypilot Olson it’s sad that we don’t see that type of talent nowadays , with all this technology and music with no meaning , no soul or heart . I might be wrong but i don’t think we will see singers like Freddie Mercury again ( among others from the past )
@@marcusmachado670 It's bc today is easiest through the technology. Companies follow specific formulas and people are used , they don't have something better to do a comparison..
I've watched more Queen and Freddie documentaries than I can count and every time I watch one I'm struck by how much Freddie's friends loved him, and still do. It's a beautiful thing to see and it tells me so much about the person he was.
Freddie was a genius, and I’m always going to love him and his talent.❤️👨🏻
I was born ten years after he died, yet I still miss him.
It's incredible I wish I could have known him.
Oh, Freddie. I hope you know somehow that you left many people very happy after meeting you. It would be several years before I "discovered" you, but now I wish I could reach out and hug you, and help you know that you're loved.
I was Lucky to see Queen in the late 70's great Legends and Freddie Knew we all Loved him such a performer, very sadly missed. Enjoy their music the best in the World. Queen are coming to NZ in Feb next year, sadly i can not afford a ticket . Hope they have a great concert in Dunedin.
@@valwalker6773 You are really lucky! I was at Kerry Ellis 'concert with Brian May of 2016 and Queen with Adam Lambert also in 2016 but I'd give almost anything to see Freddie in concert .

Rock in Peace Freddie ✨️🎤❤
He died when i'm 7mos old.. but hearing Queen's songs.. feels like living at their time.. so pure, eversongs every lyrics is so heartwarming.. I love Queen's forever!! Freddie, roger, brian, deaky❤❤
One and only Freddie Mercury....he made us happy. Thanks for this.
When you're so talented, people still give you awards about 40 years after your death
Finnie Boo Yes that's right , but almost 29 years so far, not 40.
"Bohemian Rhapsody", a song that I sang with my friends in H.S., is now the song that my song my son sings to my 1month old grandson...
And we still love you.......
I saw Queen in Madison Wisconsin in the late 70s. Hands down the best concert ever! They were spectacular ❤️🎵🎶🎤🎼
Wow! You're lucky!
I wish I would have gone to that concert!!
Queen forever
Freddie was and still is a legend. How can you not fall in love with this man?
I still have goosebumps when I see this Live Aid performance. .. legendary
Me too..always.
Find the video of their last concert in 1986: two hours of magic, unmatched by any other band.
Live Aid Queen performance was recreated for Fire Fight Australia 2019. Magical
Me too!!!
The Greatest Entertainer with a Magnificent Voice, what a Queen. Much Beloved Freddy Mercury.
I watched Live Aid 1985 via tv when I was just 10 years old. I sang radio Gaga, bohemian rhapsody etc as if I watched it live. My mother thought i was just crazy at that time, i sang and followed what the audiences did. Aahh...those were the days
All of them were geniuses, and the other guys shouldn’t be forgotten, but when Freddy is on stage, who can see anyone else? He will never be forgotten, NEVER
Best voice, best singer, best music live all times. Legendaries Freddie Mercury & Queen.
Yes!!! 👍🎶❤️
My dear Freddie, thank you for all the joy, love, music and memories, you will live forever in my heart............
I am always in awe of people with such great talent and wonder how many undiscovered talents are out there that never get an opportunity? I found my way here after watching Rocketman first and thinking Elton was the greatest showman......THEN I saw Bohemian Rhapsody........WOW, I never realized what a gift Freddy Mercury was!
FREDDIE MERCURY..... A TRUE GLOBAL ICON LEGEND SUPERSTAR ROCK STAR EVVVVVVVVER
Watching this video, Live Aid & other Queen performances, has left me happy & sad at the same time. Goes to show LIFE is a real GIFT & best lived out loud!
There shall never be another FREDDIE MERCURY......THANK YOU GOD.
The official video footage of live aid brings me to tears each and every time. and when they had it as the end piece for the Bohemian Rhapsody movie...i sobbed through the whole thing. I was born a year before freddie died, but I would have given anything to have been born in the late 70s/early 80s just so I could have seen that performance first hand.
Freddie Mercury is unforgettable with that powerful voice and fantastic gorgeous looks!❤️❤️
Absolutely! ❤️🎼👑
Taaaaak !!!!❤❤❤❤
I consider myself one of the BIGGEST Freddie Mercury and Queen fans..I absolutely love these 4 guy's,and I'm always looking for anything new... Freddie,Brian, Roger and John,you are Rock God's, yesterday, today and tomorrow...Love from Ohio!!!
FREDDIE-the man, the myth, THE LEGEND. He had it all. Perfect.
That's genius. You cannot fathom why
it feels so good to see or perceive it.
Freddie went from a young good looking sexy guy to a big giant man. A real man in him, definitely
Growing up in the 60's and 70's. Freddie was a beast from another dimension. Thankfully.
I grew up listening to Queen and I love everything they ever did. I also love Freddie's solo projects and colabs. The Barcelona album he did with Montserrat was absolutely brilliant!!! It showed how versatile he truly was... priceless.
Rest In Peace dear Freddie...we love you and miss you so much. 💔
RIP Freddie. Freddie Mercury was the greatest male singer who ever lived.
Elvis was
Freddie appreciated his band mates, the fans and MUSIC and performing! I think he loved each of his Queen mates and that gave the world fabulous Queen. He did his best to help them stay together. The band, talent unmatched, determination unwavering, wonderful human beings, those 'boys' great icons for the young, middle aged and any lovers of inspiring music - now proving to be Queen forever.
My god he was so incredibly handsome. So talented. I saw Queen in concert in Montreal. It was fantastic.
Freddie is the best vocalist of all time
there will never ever be another showman and singer of the caliber of Freddie Mercury!
Freddie...I grew up with you. I was a girl 12 years old when mum gave her a cassette of Queen for her birthday. Ever since then I have loved your voice, persona, charisma but most of all I loved the words in your songs. Queen music helped me trough thick and thin too many times. So truly there will never be any greater entertainer than you were. The whole lot of you. So wherever you are I hope you're rocking the stage. Bri, Roger and Deaky...we all love you for keeping Freddie with us still. ❤️❤️❤️
The natural connect with the audiences,the chemistry is unparalleled. Selfless wanted people to be happy. Music in general relieves stress but after watching the performance of Freddie,i firmly believe he turned it into enjoyment.
Queen opened for Frampton. At 73 yo I feel honored to have seen Freddie firsr in his too short career. No one did it better.
Oh my goodness... bawling my eyes out... still cry about Freddy after 30 years. Such incredible talent, a master - musician
Freddie was someone you wanted to see in a concert. He had a power only select artists had in the 70’s & 80’s. Elvis was the king of rock, and Freddie was his Prince of Rock. He influenced countless artists and still influences artists today. Freddie was the greatest of all time and will remaine the GOAT!
I remember my eldest brother listening to Queen, and 'Another one bites the dust' I think was one of his favourites, he played it a lot. Queen have been there throughout my childhood, and still is. Legendary musicians with fantastic music
The band that lives on forever... QUEEN!
These are the days of our lives BREAKS my heart! Freddie is saying goodbye to us! We still love you too💜💜
São Paulo Stadium,1981 - was one of the best days of my life!! I was an ordinary 16 years old girl, no money, living in a city far from the Stadium, but I made it !! What a beautiful day!!
You were so happy to see Freddie in 1981 in Brazil. How I'd like to see him, and so would everyone from Queen.
Group had never before come to Turkey. But there are many fans in my country. It's not possible to dislike Frediee. I know it's too late to see him, but it's not too late to love him. I feel like we've grown up together. Now I'm getting older with him. If this isn't magic, what is it?
Aynur Bas. The same. 👍👑♥️🎵
Aynur Bas I know. Queen had never before come to Turkey, only with Paul Rodgers. In my country with Adam Lambert 2016 and Brian May 2016 again - with Kerry Ellis. I was there. I'м from Bulgaria.We are neigbors.
Yes a Rock God. Love love him still.
I may not have to money to collect a lot if Queen / Freddie Things but I to do consider myself the BIGEST FREDDIE/Queen fan ever !! Even today there is NO ONE LIKE FREDDIE AND NEVER WILL BE !! RIP OUR LEGEND!!
ONE of the best documentaries on the best of men and music and easily the best rock band. Freddie's legacy and music will last into the next century. I haven't met anyone young or old, male or female, who hasnt heard of Queen or their music. It's amazing. His death has left a gaping hole in so many lives.
Freddie is the Persian popinjay that on its way to mars, flew beyond the skies. He is the star that illuminates us with every smile, every gesture. His charisma is a waterfall, we bath in its lake. He lives forever in our hearts with the magic of his songs.
Amen.
Daan Overveld : Amen and Hallelujah!! Forever Freddie ‼️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💔💕🦋😂😂😂👑👑👑
There will never be another person like Freddie, he was an incredible musician, an outstanding performer in the world.
Absolutely!
A comment I heard in an interview with a college GF was, (I paraphrase) " I thought 2 things when he died - 'well you did in life what you said you'd do and now you are on your way of becoming a legend.'" He really had done the musical creations he had a heart for once he had conquered the opera world. He was a trailblazer for others in so many ways in the musical world.
I miss you my sweet Freddie when I look and see that I still love you rest in peace you beautiful sweet man i.miss you Freddie mercury
Beyond the voice, beyond the charisma, his and the band’s greatest talent portrayed through the lyrics was to love ourselves and each other because we are all the champions of the world.
I love love love Freddie, and I'm not even gay, I think that says something about the man.
The King of Queen! Freddie Mercury💜💜👑
Marvelously Done. The most handsome strutting peacock ever
You got that right Freddie was the greatest front man..Love you Freddie Mercury forever.💖🌹💖💖🌹
He was the best ever! ❤️💕RIP I hope you are rocking heaven, can’t wait to see you again!
@Moon Rise there is a difference between imitation and influence.
He can only be described as totally magnificent; he had a once in a lifetime voice. I could listen to his music all day long. You never tire of it; it's as though he is singing directly to you, each individual person. A voice like his has to.go down in music as LEGEND because it cannot be imitated
Freddie will be remembered by every generation; you only had to hear him once and you go back looking for more. The.world really lost a Great singer and showman ; but most of all we lost a great human being.
“Bohemian Rhapsody” proved Freddie was a musical genius! “Innuendo,” the song and album, was another example all 4 members were musical geniuses. They took music to a unique level no ones been able to duplicate or ever will! 😊♥️
He made music that keeps playing inside my soul... Still is, for real! That's it!
Cudowny kompletnie UNIKALNY l głos. Liryczny ale silny. To jak słuchanie poezji...
