UsedCondomCollector actually, him being Indian/Persian brought a lot of representation into the music business, he also brought a lot of lgbtq+ representation, and being a huge public figure who was lost to AIDS (not to mention the charity for AIDS research in his name raised so much money for the cause) actually gave people more motivation to find a treatment. upon this he also influenced fashion and he’s also, of course, regarded my most as on of the greatest frontmen to ever exist. he made the world a more accepting place so for a lot of people including myself, he did, in fact, change the world.
I’m completely obsessed with Queen and Freddie Mercury and I’m 76years old. My favorite is the song he wrote for Mary. But I listen to them all over and over again.
He's said before that was his stage persona. He often said in interviews that off stage he's just a normal human being. One who loves to have fun and hang out with friends and everything and yes, very high energy, but the "flamboyance" was all part of his job as a front man. He also said what people consider "flamboyant" to him is just normal. The man just basically marched to the beat of his own drum in every facet of his life and I love him for that. Enternally grateful to him and to the universe for gifting us with him for 45+eternity years. Long live Freddie 💖
He also said he needed to find something to GRAB people's attention and the spandex and make up in the early days is " What Worked "!! He was a man of very high intelligence and intensity! He just seemed to know what his fans wanted!! His Video's show the changes every step of the way , from the 70's right to the end almost. I so grateful that when asked what he wanted to be filmed , he replied " Just film EVERYTHING, we can edit it later"!! Wow!! For the new fans it is wonderful for them to be able to see that and know he really was just doing his job and that was not who he really was!! It's too bad that in one interview , the one that is mentioned here he also said " I just want people to realize , I'm a Human Being "!! To have to tell people , remind them of something they should have already known on their own is really sad!! I have been a fan for over 36 years and saw the tabloids and the absolutely nasty things being reported about him!! It's all true about Paul Prenter too!! I remember reading the paper when he called Freddie's home " AIDS LODGE" And not Garden Lodge!! What a beast!! 💔💔
Freddie was perfect. He had the body of what a real man is supposed to look like. He has the most beautiful eyes. I loved his personality as well. How I miss you my darling. You will live in my heart FOREVER!
You are so right! And even teenage girls see that he was perfect. He was built just like a man should be and also he had some special radiating energy that he showed in everything he did.
Freddie had something so special about him. Especially when you look in his eyes. It is hard to put into words. His energy was not from this world. Flaws and all, he is/was completely mesmerizing. RIP Freddie. Love to you, wherever you are.
I agree about something so special about him looking into his eyes, like feeling him sensually. He's definitely one helluva sexy man. I prayed & talked outloud for days wanting him to come in a dream & FINALLY, a few days after i stopped, he was in a dream. I love how he's so opposite on stage vs off stage. All 4 guys are unbelievably talented, and comparing to other bands thru out my years...they can't be beat. Queen is one of a kind
Как жаль, что Фредди и ребята из Queen тогда так и не попали в Россию и Китай. Но у них все-равно прибавилось поклонников в этих странах. Мы любим тебя, Фредди и тебя очень не хватает!!!! Твоей светлой и талантливой души!!! 👍🎸🥁🎸🎹🎤🎼🤴👑💓💓💓🌈🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Lord he was a Spirit that definitely had lived in past times an I believe still probably had a couple more in the future an I want him to cross my path again 💯🙏 Thank you for bringing us wonderful Beautiful music love you Mr Mercury an Queen four Legends for Sure . Your music speaks to me an touches my Soul 👑👒🎩🧢💯🔥💫👏🙌😎😍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌞🕊️💞💞🕊️
I love freddie that’s not music i refuse to believe it is. i’m literally 17 years old and i am i dedicated queen fan and can’t stand most of today’s music
He was so damned good-looking and sexy and such a tremendous loss to the world of music and to those who loved him and to his fans. My god, just so terribly heartbreaking that we lost him so soon. No words are adequate to describe the loss of this precious human with all his frailties and idiosyncrasies. I love him so much it hurts. We were all better for having him here.
I'm so grateful that the world had the opportunity to know and love this man and his work. Yes, he and many others were gone too soon, but his gift lives on. Thank you, Freddie.
valley girl Many times amazing singers know changes to their face, mouth, etc, CAN affect their talent & their magical voices. Absolute dedication. I loved Freddie for who he was; never thought anything negative about any part of him. I saw Queen live in ‘82 or ‘83 (can’t remember) and will NEVER forget the ecstasy I felt. Front row in N.J. Billy Squier opened for Queen.
@@maridepp53 all the greats smoked for decades!! Joni Mitchell, Frank Sinatra, Rosemary Clooney i cd go on and on! Trust me! Im not saying it's a good thing! Nat King Cole died of lung Cancer fr smoking at 46! Same age as r dear Freddie!! Rip Freddie!! I listened to your channeling session with Bridget fr the youtube (above life channel) the other day! AMAZING!!
@@erniepianezza8940 , I also watched a channeling with Freddie , but it was with a woman named Emanuel , I can't remember her last name! I thought it interesting when she asked if he was upset about dying so young , he said no , he was done what he had to do here! She asked what was that? He replied , I was on earth to bring awareness to HIV/AIDS!! And I had to really think back through the recesses of my mind , Freddie dying REALLY did bring more awareness to the Rock and rolling bar hopping younger crowd back in that time! I remember alot of young people if the 80's crowd. Still thinking they were living in the sexual revolution!! And after Freddie passed , most of that freedom had deflated from them!! And the foundation Brian and Roger set up in his Honor has raised millions and millions of dollars for reasearch!! In that respect. Freddie really did raise awareness and accomplish what he came here to do!! I am going to go and look for the one you watched , just to compare the 2 and see if anything is the same!!
"I don't want to let anyone down." - Freddie. You never let anyone down Freddie. The best frontman for a band ever. Queen had all three essential elements for a truly successful band. Great performance on stage, incredible musical technical ability and flair, and great songs. Legend.
The world could learn a lot from Freddie’s life He lived it to the fullest he did what he wanted and his kind soul shall remain Legendary just like he wanted to be a LEGEND He’s sexy AF gorgeous brown eyes gay or not he is a beautiful soul
@@orianna9200 to be fair, he didn't know about aids at the time, very few did. Once he processes the possibilities he in his own words "became a nun" But by then it was too late 😥💛
I dont care one second if he was gay or not. I love Freddie for all the wonderful music, love, and what a generous he was. There are no words can describe him, the energy and love was just beyond the universe. RIP Freddie and you are never boring!
How lucky I was to have come up during the live Queen era. I LOVED Freddie’s showmanship & outrageous outfits. Through pure luck, I ended up seeing Queen live - FIRST ROW, front & center!. My memory for dates is awful; I believe it was 1982, in the N.J. arena I’ll always remember as Brendan Byrne or the Meadowlands. My high school friend’s older brother ended up with an extra ticket when his friend backed out.. I asked or was asked if I wanted to go....Hell YES! Freddie & Queen were my idols! Felt like I could’ve reached out & wiped the sweat from Freddie’s face. Best concert I’ve ever been to. I certainly couldn’t have afforded front row tickets in high school! Billy Squier opened for Queen (loved him too). Even tho super loud, the experience was beyond magical. To me, Freddie was a sexy god with a voice that shattered my soul in THE BEST WAY EVER. I was heartbroken when I heard Freddie’s life was robbed by AIDS. Queen as a band was magical. Last year I reconnected with my HS friend via social media. Her brother who took me to the concert was in a NY hospital for cancer related surgery. When my friend asked if I remembered her brother after 39 years, I answered “Of course....J took me to see Queen; first row!” She gave me his # and asked if I’d give her brother a call for support. When she told J I was going to call, his 1st words were “of course I remember K; I took her to the Queen concert, 1st row tickets!”. We had the best 2 hour chat. My long haired rocker friend grew up to be a brilliant man. We were going to keep in touch after he recovered completely from his surgery. My heart broke in pieces when I learned the cancer took his life shortly after the surgery. 2 amazing men taken way too soon. Whenever I listened/listen to Queen, both J & Freddie were/are with me. They always will be, even more so now.
People believe Freddie was taken too young. But as he said in his interview "I can't run around on stage all the time, it would be ridiculous" Freddie loved being on stage, this was him at his best. Anything else would be mediocre to him. I think he achieved exactly what he set out to do and that was to entertain the world and leave a legacy that couldn't be replicated. We were lucky to have known him.
Chris Burton or was that a typo for “rattle on”? Lol im serious! I want to know is “rabbit on” a thing? Haha I mean Is it an expression in the United kingdom or other certain parts of Europe or Australia or New Zealand?
Best male singer of all time and i grew up after the Queen era. He was a musical genius. Imagine had he had all these lost years as time to make music. Incredible.
moodmuzik I used to be a professional vocalist in Chamber Choirs and have performed with the VSO many times. I DREAM of having a range like Freddie. He is truly one of the most talented musician I have ever had the pleasure to hear. I believe he's a musical genius. We have had to sing Bohemian Rhapsody and it is not an easy song to sing, especially the first sopranos! Brian May's falsetto is absolutely brilliant. These guys are the tightest group of musicians I have heard. They're all obviously brilliant.
Freddie did have Persian ancestry through his father's lineage. His mother was Indian, but his ancestry was mostly Parsi. Look it up. Mercury's family were "Parsi" and he was born in Zanzibar and raised in India until his mid-teens before they moved to England. "Parsi" refers to a member of the larger of the two Zoroastrian communities in South Asia and India. The present-day Parsis descend from a group of Persian Zoroastrians who immigrated to South Asia during 8th century AD due to persecution in post-Islamic Iran. "Iranis" are the other Indian-Zoroastrian community with Persian roots but they came from Iran more recently. So Mercury's Iranian lineage needs tracing for some 1200 years. He can perhaps be more properly called of "Indian-Zoroastrian" heritage.
Yes, Freddie was extremely good looking North Indian are a mix, in general, and thats why they are much lighter in skin colour than south Indians. I know many Parsis and their ancestors go back generations in India. They are happy to be Indian. I am a huge fan, but we dont really need him to be linked to our country if he was so ashamed of it and he clearly was.
"I don't want to change the world." oh Freddie, "how far that little candle throws his beams. so shines a good deed in a naughty world." William Shakespeare merchant of Venice act 5 scene 1.
I was not born yet when Queen conquered the world, but I’m still obsessed with him/ the band till today in 2019. Not another single musician has made me listen to his/her songs non stop. Dear lord, He is a true legend and so handsome!
3:00 - i love how Freddie talks about how the concert performances deliver something different than the studio version because that's one thing of the great things about Queen. You get multiple version of songs - the amazing studio version as well as the versions performed live. In my Queen playlist, i have at least 2-3 versions of several songs because each one gives you something unique. An extended vocal or piano intro, Freddie improving with the lyrics, an added guitar section or drum solo, etc. Queen are the first band where i actually prefer the live performances to the studio recorded tracks. :)
He is a entertainer and frontman and the best at it. He is also the greatest singer and does exactly what he is paid for. They all are that way. Fantastic.❤️❤️❤️❤️
I can listen to him for hours too. Even sometimes I don't understand what he is talking about. My English is not very well. I simply love the sound of his voice..
He had a voice from the heavens. So talented. Will never be another. If only he had better people around him when he was truly alone, instead of the bad influencers. He maybe would've still been here. To quote him, " I love you" he told everyone goodbye!
If,I'm in a bad or sad mood I can always watch Freddie Mercury and feel so much better he has that charm to make you feel like a winner love Freddie and would have loved to been his best friend
Freddy said many time that he was Not going to grow old.. When asked about being 70 he said that he would be long gone by then and living the next life or whatever comes next..
Generation after generation are still buying your records Freddie even though you are no longer here. You will never be forgotten as your music keeps you alive. Thank you.
"Who Wants To Live Forever"? While Freddie is no longer with us in the flesh his memory is burnt into our hearts and he will live forever in our souls. He was the greatest Rock Showman ever, his singing/ songwriting and Stage presence was never seen before or since. When Freddie was made they broke the mould and we will never see his like again. In the studio, on stage where ever Freddie was he was one of kind and I am proud to be a massive fan of Queen especially Freddie and so glad I was around in the 70s/80s to witness the phenomenon that was Freddie Mercury and Queen. Rest Easy Freddie thanx for all the Fab music and for filling my life with your glorious presence on God's Green Earth. Rock On In Heaven King Freddie The Greatest Showman EVER!
He was gorgeous!!! One in a billion human being, incredible talent, and put on this earth to bring us love, music, humour and appreciation of life!! I feel lucky to have been alive the same time as him x Will love you forever Freddie x
Queen was the Only band with well educated Smart as hell guys playing the instruments!! But Freddie was the master genius talented lead singer with unbelievable imagination and extraordinary Voice from heaven!! Love his voice and his accent and charismatic personality and sex appeal!!!👏👏👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👏👏
Freddie Mercury wasn't just this showman who ran around on stage wearing flamboyant outfits. That was in the grande scheme a very small part of what he did. A very intelligent man who carefully and skillfully mastered his craft with amazing attention to detail. The sad part is not knowing what direction his genious could have led to. I honestly think that Freddie could have gone onto writing orchestral masterpeces aswell as directing etc. Queens music could have progressed to world domination. If only the cure for his disease was found sooner.
To those who are haters and disliked him on the thumbs down button....oh I know your just jealous! What a fabulous artist and a gem of a man. We all miss him so much. Feel bad for those too ignorant to appreciate such a grand man...a grand band. Queen . RIP Freddie
Loved this interview. He is always so straight forward. I am sure he was a very good guy. Too bad the universe took him from us and back to where he came from.
CR, I agree! Never realized how authentic and unassuming he was. Also his mother said that anytime he was with them, he didn’t want to talk about his work and was always respectful to her and just wanted the normalcy of his family.
I think this is the first time I've ever cried because of this, I just especially miss him today.... You are missed dear Freddie, the greatest singer and songwriter ever, the most talented musician. So gentle and kind.
I love Freddie Mercury I love his teeth!why not he is good looking I really hate what happened to him. He will always live in our memories, he's absolutely wonderful all of Queen was.
Freddie's teeth....if anyone considers them a flaw...just think if he'd had ordinary orthodontically perfected teeth....he would have been unbearably beautiful...I adore Freddie as was....🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I love his eyes I guess I know him for ages through his eyes and smile. There is something in his eyes different, profound, I don't know what it is. Something mysterious, RIP legend 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Freddie, hope you know that Brian does you proud on Love Of My Life live in concert. And that Adam does nothing but show respect for you. ❤️ I wasn’t quite sure how I’d feel going to concert but came out happy at the love and respect shown to you from your band. ❤️ Queen fans, if you can see concert, do. Take it from one who still, and always will, adores Freddie.
'I don't want to change the world'
Yet he did anyways..
UsedCondomCollector actually, him being Indian/Persian brought a lot of representation into the music business, he also brought a lot of lgbtq+ representation, and being a huge public figure who was lost to AIDS (not to mention the charity for AIDS research in his name raised so much money for the cause) actually gave people more motivation to find a treatment. upon this he also influenced fashion and he’s also, of course, regarded my most as on of the greatest frontmen to ever exist. he made the world a more accepting place so for a lot of people including myself, he did, in fact, change the world.
@UsedCondomCollector yes...he did
@UsedCondomCollector I'm sorry, you don't know anything. You must be very young.
@UsedCondomCollector don't be ridiculous my dear.....
Yes he did
The tone of his voice is so pleasant that I could hear it forever
Besides his brilliant singing voice he also had a beautiful speaking voice as well.
Просто смотреть на Фредди,слушать его голос,смех,шутки,видеть улыбку,это как глоток чистой,родниковой,живой воды.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Yes I agree
I’m completely obsessed with Queen and Freddie Mercury and I’m 76years old. My favorite is the song he wrote for Mary. But I listen to them all over and over again.
Freddie said that he wrote that song for the audience...🤩
As flamboyant as he was, he seemed so genuine, humble, and down to earth in interviews.
He's said before that was his stage persona. He often said in interviews that off stage he's just a normal human being. One who loves to have fun and hang out with friends and everything and yes, very high energy, but the "flamboyance" was all part of his job as a front man. He also said what people consider "flamboyant" to him is just normal. The man just basically marched to the beat of his own drum in every facet of his life and I love him for that. Enternally grateful to him and to the universe for gifting us with him for 45+eternity years. Long live Freddie 💖
He lovely guy who also loves cats!!! 🐈
That's what I love most about him.
Conscious Robot that all his honesty. He was a good person.

Hes native language was Swahili and secondary - english.

Even after his death!
He was a humble and kind clean man!

There definitely was something about him; mesmerizing
Yes, mesmerizing
He became even more attractive as he aged. He grew into this talents and matured. Nothing more attractive than that!!
Didn't he, though! He was inscrutably handsome.

Freddie is completely right. Happiness is the most important thing and everyone should live by that
I think that is how he lived and it's what impresses us most.
He ruined his own happiness though
@@awesomeshorts8664 no he didn't

He is absolutely gorgeous and sexy
Lol
So true Abbey!
Beautiful
Brian said it best. He was a lover of life and singer of songs:)
Yes that sums him up perfectly!
Imagine all those songs Freddie threw away as "not worth"... probably had 10x more potential than any song coming out rn.
Shit man. You're so right .
What the fuck is Gucci Gang ?
I love freddie that’s not music i refuse to believe it is. i’m literally 17 years old and i am i dedicated queen fan and can’t stand most of today’s music
It seems our generation has proved Freddy wrong. "Talent is everywhere, opportunity is not".
Stephen Wilson thats definitely still a true statement in my opinion. today’s industry just pushes mediocrity at this point
He was so damned good-looking and sexy and such a tremendous loss to the world of music and to those who loved him and to his fans. My god, just so terribly heartbreaking that we lost him so soon. No words are adequate to describe the loss of this precious human with all his frailties and idiosyncrasies. I love him so much it hurts. We were all better for having him here.
Jan Hunt Ditto
Lived life to the full the world is lost without him a brilliant artist
I'm so grateful that the world had the opportunity to know and love this man and his work. Yes, he and many others were gone too soon, but his gift lives on. Thank you, Freddie.
I like the mustache and his hairy chest.
A real legend!!!
a polished gentleman really, brilliant and obviously kind and gentle inside... articulate and beautiful and truly missed.. I love you Freddie xo
exactly.
Beautifully stated. 👏👏👏👏
What a BEAUTIFUL, LOVELY, AND TALENTED MAN! Who else loves the way he says” Dah-ling”?
RIP, Freddie.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He says my dear so sweet....i love him
I agree with you
Nelma in my defence I completely agree!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Freddie was the best male singer and sexy male in the world, never get another Freddie
No one ever can replace freddie.
Very true
He is actually quite charming guy. Well spoken, intelligent and self depreciating.
Such a talented, beautiful man who was linked up with 3 other incredibly talented guys, they were pure magic together.
Extrodinarily talented and intelligent. I could listen to him sing and talk forever. He is still amazing but one of a kind. Not replaceable.
He was so beautiful. SIGH.
He thought if he fixed his teeth it would mess up his voice. he thought any changes to his mouth would effect his singing voice. That's dedication
valley girl Many times amazing singers know changes to their face, mouth, etc, CAN affect their talent & their magical voices. Absolute dedication. I loved Freddie for who he was; never thought anything negative about any part of him. I saw Queen live in ‘82 or ‘83 (can’t remember) and will NEVER forget the ecstasy I felt. Front row in N.J.

What a handsome guy..he stole my heart!!!
Still missed still loved

We both are not the only in 2019❤
Freddie's Confidence and Security in his own self is what makes him so attractive! Such a real man...
He wasn't so secure in his own self when he was younger, he was attractive too
RIP Freddie, 28 years and we still miss you dearly. You were one of a kind.
From the way he talked and the tone of his voice, i can feel that Freddie was a kindhearted and humble guy.
The world misses him.

Freddie Mercury is and always be the GREATEST ROCK-ROLL in my eyes, I love how he speaks his mind, R.I.P
What a handsome man!
Tulessa Slone That he was!
so true 🙂
He got a magnetic charm!...
Such sex appeal he had!!!
Indeed he was
I am just addicted to listening to him rabbit on. I can't put my finger on exactly why but I just smile the whole time.
Chris Burton rabbit on? Is that a British expression? I’m not trying to be offensive or rude at all, i’m genuinely curious
Chris Burton or was that a typo for “rattle on”? Lol im serious! I want to know is “rabbit on” a thing? Haha I mean Is it an expression in the United kingdom or other certain parts of Europe or Australia or New Zealand?
Chris Burton RABBIT ON! LOVE IT!!!
Angela Longinidis N.O. IT'S CALLED C.L.E.V.E.R
EXPRESSION
Angela Longinidis no offense, sweetie! *changed my name*, fyi. Just gelt this way at the time. PMS, maybe:(
Good looking man!!! Incredibly handsome!!!
Best male singer of all time and i grew up after the Queen era. He was a musical genius. Imagine had he had all these lost years as time to make music. Incredible.
It was the first LP (long playing vinyl record) I ever got - for Xmas from my granny, back in about 1978?
He is one of the very best.
moodmuzik I used to be a professional vocalist in Chamber Choirs and have performed with the VSO many times.
I DREAM of having a range like Freddie.
He is truly one of the most talented musician I have ever had the pleasure to hear.
I believe he's a musical genius.
We have had to sing Bohemian Rhapsody and it is not an easy song to sing, especially the first sopranos!
Brian May's falsetto is absolutely brilliant.
These guys are the tightest group of musicians I have heard. They're all obviously brilliant.
@@kearl3490 One of the best, probably, sure. THE best? That´d be Mike Patton, no question.
Roger Taylor
Even with his four extra teeth he was a gorgeous guy! Persian!
Fahim He was Parsi , which is Persian .
He was actually born in zanzibar!
Fahim his dad was Persian! Look it up his dad changed it because of what is going on now with Muslim very interesting!
Freddie did have Persian ancestry through his father's lineage. His mother was Indian, but his ancestry was mostly Parsi. Look it up. Mercury's family were "Parsi" and he was born in Zanzibar and raised in India until his mid-teens before they moved to England. "Parsi" refers to a member of the larger of the two Zoroastrian communities in South Asia and India. The present-day Parsis descend from a group of Persian Zoroastrians who immigrated to South Asia during 8th century AD due to persecution in post-Islamic Iran. "Iranis" are the other Indian-Zoroastrian community with Persian roots but they came from Iran more recently. So Mercury's Iranian lineage needs tracing for some 1200 years. He can perhaps be more properly called of "Indian-Zoroastrian" heritage.
Yes, Freddie was extremely good looking
North Indian are a mix, in general, and thats why they are much lighter in skin colour than south Indians. I know many Parsis and their ancestors go back generations in India. They are happy to be Indian.
I am a huge fan, but we dont really need him to be linked to our country if he was so ashamed of it and he clearly was.
Freddie raised the bar, opened the door, and gifted us all with great music, love, and memories.
He will always be Forever Young.
"I don't want to change the world." oh Freddie, "how far that little candle throws his beams. so shines a good deed in a naughty world." William Shakespeare merchant of Venice act 5 scene 1.
I love the group Queen 😍. Freddie Mercury was one of the best singers of all time. Amazing!!!!
I was not born yet when Queen conquered the world, but I’m still obsessed with him/ the band till today in 2019. Not another single musician has made me listen to his/her songs non stop. Dear lord, He is a true legend and so handsome!
3:00 - i love how Freddie talks about how the concert performances deliver something different than the studio version because that's one thing of the great things about Queen. You get multiple version of songs - the amazing studio version as well as the versions performed live. In my Queen playlist, i have at least 2-3 versions of several songs because each one gives you something unique. An extended vocal or piano intro, Freddie improving with the lyrics, an added guitar section or drum solo, etc. Queen are the first band where i actually prefer the live performances to the studio recorded tracks. :)
Уникальный, талантливый. Легенда!!!
He is a entertainer and frontman and the best at it. He is also the greatest singer and does exactly what he is paid for. They all are that way. Fantastic.❤️❤️❤️❤️
Such an interesting man. I could listen to him talk about things for hours.
Me too. I love his voice and everything he says.
I can listen to him for hours too. Even sometimes I don't understand what he is talking about. My English is not very well. I simply love the sound of his voice..
He had a voice from the heavens. So talented. Will never be another. If only he had better people around him when he was truly alone, instead of the bad influencers. He maybe would've still been here. To quote him, " I love you" he told everyone goodbye!
:(((
If,I'm in a bad or sad mood I can always watch Freddie Mercury and feel so much better he has that charm to make you feel like a winner love Freddie and would have loved to been his best friend
For me.it's the Barcelona Album.
Freddie Mercury estava lindo nesse vídeo sinto falta dele é suas músicas maravilhosas
Damn, so sad to hear him talk about growing old and writing songs.
Dandymite Gone too soon....I imagine is he still here he will accomplish many projects and songs. Rip
Exactly what I thought. 😥
I'm sobbing 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Freddy said many time that he was Not going to grow old.. When asked about being 70 he said that he would be long gone by then and living the next life or whatever comes next..
Hurry Back, Hurry Back Freddie...we still love you !! 💋
The band members of Queen are some of the most intellectual in rock. I mean, Brian May is a FRIGGIN DOCTOR with a PHD!
Rick Jasper John Deacon is a science and maths guy as well and Roger is a dentist. :)
they’re musical geniuses aren’t they
A literal Rocket Scientist! :)
Now Brian Mays looks make waaay more sense!
Rick Jasper Freddie graduates with an Art major
i could listen to this man speak for hours and hours he has such a calming voice
I love CZcams, it allows me to watch Freddie anytime I want, and it keeps him alive. He was such a lovely talented charismatic man 💞
Generation after generation are still buying your records Freddie even though you are no longer here. You will never be forgotten as your music keeps you alive. Thank you.
I don't give a shit what any one thinks of me. Freddie Mercury there's only one and will never be another. love you Freddie never forgotten 😘
Cookie Mcdaniel That Is A Fact
And what Others Think Of You Don’t Matter. Much Aloha Sweetie
It makes me sad that he didnt live very long.. He was such a talented man and his voice is very iconic😢
Very lovely kind beautiful sweet funny talented man....I so loved how he loved cats so much and adopted and spoiled them xxxx god I love you
He was a beautiful man, inside and out.
"Who Wants To Live Forever"? While Freddie is no longer with us in the flesh his memory is burnt into our hearts and he will live forever in our souls. He was the greatest Rock Showman ever, his singing/ songwriting and Stage presence was never seen before or since. When Freddie was made they broke the mould and we will never see his like again. In the studio, on stage where ever Freddie was he was one of kind and I am proud to be a massive fan of Queen especially Freddie and so glad I was around in the 70s/80s to witness the phenomenon that was Freddie Mercury and Queen. Rest Easy Freddie thanx for all the Fab music and for filling my life with your glorious presence on God's Green Earth. Rock On In Heaven King Freddie The Greatest Showman EVER!
He was gorgeous!!! One in a billion human being, incredible talent, and put on this earth to bring us love, music, humour and appreciation of life!! I feel lucky to have been alive the same time as him x Will love you forever Freddie x
Queen was the Only band with well educated Smart as hell guys playing the instruments!! But Freddie was the master genius talented lead singer with unbelievable imagination and extraordinary Voice from heaven!! Love his voice and his accent and charismatic personality and sex appeal!!!👏👏👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👏👏
He was magic. Freddie forever!!! I love you 😭
"I'm a trooper Honey"..."oh darling" ...sweet words, any woman would love to be called sweet names like these. He's precious.
Freddie Mercury wasn't just this showman who ran around on stage wearing flamboyant outfits. That was in the grande scheme a very small part of what he did. A very intelligent man who carefully and skillfully mastered his craft with amazing attention to detail. The sad part is not knowing what direction his genious could have led to. I honestly think that Freddie could have gone onto writing orchestral masterpeces aswell as directing etc. Queens music could have progressed to world domination. If only the cure for his disease was found sooner.
Dave Annan yep ... if only
To those who are haters and disliked him on the thumbs down button....oh I know your just jealous! What a fabulous artist and a gem of a man. We all miss him so much. Feel bad for those too ignorant to appreciate such a grand man...a grand band. Queen . RIP Freddie
Freddie is gorgeous, it's my opinion and I've held it for 25+ years, I'm too old to change it now🥀
ElleMusic I feel the same. In my case, I’ve held it for close to 40 years!
My thoughts exactly gorgeous, creative, and was and still is a true artist 😊
Age is but a number.... Keep feeling beautiful and you'll never grow old....
And sexy as hell!
I would've let him blow me
He has such a soothing voice
Loved this interview. He is always so straight forward. I am sure he was a very good guy. Too bad the universe took him from us and back to where he came from.
anna baldi the universe does these things some times
Only the good die young... :-)
damn, he was so hot!! I LOVE YOU FREDDIE MERCURY!!
CR, I agree! Never realized how authentic and unassuming he was. Also his mother said that anytime he was with them, he didn’t want to talk about his work and was always respectful to her and just wanted the normalcy of his family.
I think this is the first time I've ever cried because of this, I just especially miss him today.... You are missed dear Freddie, the greatest singer and songwriter ever, the most talented musician. So gentle and kind.
I love Freddie Mercury I love his teeth!why not he is good looking I really hate what happened to him. He will always live in our memories, he's absolutely wonderful all of Queen was.
Freddie's teeth....if anyone considers them a flaw...just think if he'd had ordinary orthodontically perfected teeth....he would have been unbearably beautiful...I adore Freddie as was....🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I love his eyes I guess I know him for ages through his eyes and smile. There is something in his eyes different, profound, I don't know what it is. Something mysterious, RIP legend 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Sahar Ahadi I know what you mean..it's his eyes..
What a loveable man. Creative beyond all bounds.
the beginning of that video reminds me why I absolutely admire this man, the way he thinks about life is how I inspire to live it.
Only yesterday there was Freddie, Bowie, Jackson, all gone. How impermanent is this life ......
George Michael....
Prince
Chris Cornell, Bennington, Cobain Glen Frye and tons more..
Prince chris cornell😭😭
Amy Winehouse was also a force
Freddie Mercury : love of my life ! Even if I'm a woman. Hetero and french. I still love uou just the way u are.💔💔💔
When he sings it just melts your heart am I right?❤❤❤😍😍😍
Kayla House yes you are
Love him he finally found himself
I can't believe all the people mentioned in this interview, except Elton are dead. Freddie was a genius, as was Bowie.
Freddie, hope you know that Brian does you proud on Love Of My Life live in concert. And that Adam does nothing but show respect for you. ❤️ I wasn’t quite sure how I’d feel going to concert but came out happy at the love and respect shown to you from your band. ❤️ Queen fans, if you can see concert, do. Take it from one who still, and always will, adores Freddie.
He will never be Freddie
He was a beautiful man. I'll miss him every day I'm on this earth
The "Simon Ferocious" thing cracks me up every time...
He was so intelligent and interesting not just attractive 😍
The man was an artistic genius and his spirit is as alive today as it was then. I just absolutely love him.
We miss you Freddie! x
Amazing stage performance❣‼
he was so handsome, can't get enough of him
Absolutely a fantastic 👏 artist no other words ....RIP FREDDY WELL MISSED...
How modest sounds this genius. Because he was a genius. How natural! What a difference between him during interviews and on stage!
The best singer in the world
