    Freddie is very particular with how he expresses his thoughts. It’s deep. Meticulous. He’s a lyrical genius. The world was not ready for him. In some ways I don’t think the interviewer was really listening to Freddie. I mean like really listening. It’s as if he just wanted to ask the next question instead of having a genuine conversation. Regardless, amazing to see this man think and express himself.

Gentleman indeed!

    Modest and kind.
    He is a mysterious man.
    He was very, very loyal to the band
    He put all his talents into it.
    He was much more than a rock star.
    Freddie didn't like interviews.
    He was nervous about the stupid questions.

    There's such a difference between 70s Freddie and 80s Freddie in interviews. In the 70s, he was reserved, distant, more soft spoken with a quiet arrogance in his demeanor. In the 80s, he was more relaxed, outgoing and funnier...the hubris was still there, but it was more playful and endearing.

    Great to see this regarding the Sunbury gig. In the mid 2000's, I worked with a guy in Melbourne, who was at that gig, and he told me how Queen were literally booed off stage, things thrown at them etc. (you can see it in Freddy's initial reaction when Molly asks). He also said that Freddy said, they'd be back to be the greatest band in the world.
    Only took 'em six months, too 😉

    Personally, I loved Freddie's complete transformation as to his physical appearance.He looked very handsome and yet, he was still Freddie Mercury that his fans always loved. And his music and control of himself. And his millions of fans.
    He loved them singing and being involved with his Songs!!

I think is taken from the television site or app, because the left side is cut, when the titles come up in the beginning. Nevertheless is great.

    To this day, I'm still blown away by the fact that Freddie was Indian and lived a significant part of his childhood in India during the '60s. As a 1st generation Indian American growing up in the 80s and 90s, I didn't have many people to look up to that looked like me. I still remember that it wasn't until about 1999 that I found out that Freddie was actually Indian. So you can imagine my amazement about him being who he was and achieving all that he did, 30+ years after he left this earth. Even though he never spoke openly about being indian or growing up as a child of indian immigrants or made it part of his public persona, I still do look upon him as an inspiration. You can do anything you want and be whoever you want so long as you love what you do. To this day am enamored by him. Long live Freddie....

      So, whatever I read about him always says that the only music he ever listened to was western. No mention of Bollwood. Of course we’ll never really know the whole story unless someone who knew him well tells us. Just appreciate him for what he made out of his life. Long live, Freddie!

      ​@@scoobz4177I think he was born to be a showman in his own right, not particularly influenced by anyone. He was absolutely loaded with talent, charisma and the IT factor. His performances are unequaled. I think perhaps people who came along afterwards may have tried to be influenced by him.

    Freddie was so charming handsome boyish smile. The actor that played him in BR looks scary and always angry , opposite of the real Freddie. Adore and Love Freddy so much.

    I know he hated interviews. So like alot of us he talks alot with his hands. You can tell he is not comfortable. Freddie was A master in the music industry.
    Funny I woke up to A Queen song ln a commercial just today. 2022 Aug.
