    Love your interpretations but the song dates from 1975, well before the AIDS epidemic. Apparently the lyrics were personal to him but he never made the meaning clear. Powerful in any case. Great channel!

A story of a poor boy who fell in love with a girl out of his socioeconomic status, got attacked by the rich boys who were after the same girl, killed one of them in self defense and had to go into hiding

It changes a person, look at what is coming out today, they all sold their soul. Deep down I pray they didnt, but deep down I kind of know they did.

    Freddie looks at the band, takes some vodka's slurps and he recorded the whole song on the first fricking take man.

    This song was about his realisation that he was gay and in a sense his coming out to himself, which in the 1970's was still a social 'death sentence' ('I just killed a man'). In a sense there are two 'deaths' he sung about. The second (AIDS) was 'The Show Must Go On', much later.
