    My best friend Lee Ann died just died. We were best friends for 39 years. She and I are (were) huge Queen fans. I decided to have this played at her memorial service. Screw anyone who doesn’t think it’s appropriate for a memorial service in a church. Love you forever darlin’!

    22 years ago today, my Mom passed away. Cruelly taken at just 53 years old to Cancer. At her funeral, as her final song, her last goodbye, she chose this. It wasn't for her, it was for my Dad. She was saying thank you to him for being her friend. To this day, it remains the purest show of love I've ever seen in my entire life, and perfectly sums-up the relationship they had. If I could, I would love to personally thank Queen, and in particular John Deacon for recording this song. It still lifts me when I'm down, and reminds me of the most wonderful Mom I could have wished for.

      @lucielune5958 Před 4 lety +24

      Freddie was disgust of electric piano, which he would later explain a mediocre cheap-looking (and like stuff) one against grand piano. So Deaky took it home and tried it, leading to creation of this song. While Freddie acknowledged the song's greatness, (Their recording session had never been peaceful. Bri said in every session of it, there's always one who cursed out loud and said "That's it. I quit!" In a band where everyone was genius, all were perfectionists about their album.) he still spoke non-positively of eletric piano, the very origin of their hit. Even during tour, Freddie would play grand piano for this song.

    I used to play and sing this to my big Alaskan Malamute. Every time he heard the opening notes he'd get really excited and dance and Woo Woo Woo along with me, especially during the chorus. It was playing when he passed away at the grand old age of 16, at home, on his comfy bed. I held him in my lap as the vet gave him the euthanasia, I fed him his favorite cookie, and I sang this song to him. RIP buddy, you were my best friend. I miss you every day.

I've found that whenever I'm best friends with a S/O first, it opens up a whole level of communication than what you would get from just meeting someone at a party. There's a fundamental knowledge of each other as you hit a wavelength taking you in a new and beautiful direction. You can be best friends and in love all at once, and it's actually how I prefer to fall in love.

      Yes. I have a friend, younger and having a tough time. When I almost made horrible decisions, she said : "Don't listen to ppl who say bad things. You're not that kind of person. You have a real heart." Now , with my head held up high, I am returning the love. Open heart makes the best friendship. Her son brings me smiles. She has taught me to succeed at being the best man possible. She is also romantic. Gotta love it :)
