      It’s his extra teeth. People recommended he have surgery to have them removed, Freddie was worried it would effect his embouchure (the shape his mouth made when he sang) so he never did anything about them.

    "His voice...so smooth!"
    He's got the vibrato dialed down for this one, but you can hear it in his long "I" sounds a bit still...it's like part of a "voiceprint" that's unique to everyone. It's a minute "vibration" within a range of frequencies that help add some "grit" to his voice. A typical one is from 5.4 Hertz to 6.9 Hertz. Freddie's was measured as high as 7.04 Hertz, meaning his "vibrato" covers a wider range and was more irregular than others, too. It means it really helps his particular voice "stand out in a crowd" as if he needed the help. The world will always treasure his voice.

      Well that’s cause everyone’s voices are unique. They were both out-of-worldly talented and skilled but if you wanna talk about vocal RANGE then I can tell you that Michael had a wider range than Mercury and could hit far more notes, but chose not to show that in his songs, staying on certain keys for most of his career. While Freddie was all about showing his range in every song and that’s probably why people think he was a more “skilled” vocalist or whatever when in fact Michael’s range was up to 4 octaves while Freddie’s was up to 3. Do with that what you will :)

      @@ashfreddyjason8109 Agreed. So many Americans think it was an Aids concert because it has the word 'Aid' in the name. For those Americans the concert was a follow on from the 1984 Christmas hit "do They Know It's Christmas?" by 'Band Aid'. (before USA for Africa) A play on words by Bob Geldof. In the UK a band aid is called a 'Plaster' and plaster aid or Band plaster just doesn't sound right. It was 'Bands' giving their time for free to help the 'Aid' efforts in Ethiopia in 84 (google it). Hence the name Band Aid. In 85 Bob got the idea for a live concert so the name 'Live Aid' came about. Now PLEASE STOP saying it was an Aids charity concert.
