    This was one of Freddie's more popular singles. It is famous for the lyrics, "I'm just a singer with a song," which became one of the lines Brian May used when speaking of Freddie, calling him the "Lover of Life, Singer of Songs." Freddie originally recorded this for the soundtrack of the 1986 musical Time. The song was written by the show's writers Dave Clark, David Soames and Jeff Daniels. One of my favorites.

    Lover of Life, Singer of Songs is on the plaque beneath the statue of Freddie in Montreux Switzerland where Freddie and Queen recorded a lot. Freddie is said to have stayed there in his declining years to escape the paparazzi In London. He did return to his home in his dying days. It is still so hard to see the montage of this robust, full of life man and then see the video of These Are The Days of Our Life. We all miss him. As Elton John said, Freddie was a one off.

    Freddie made each song he did so personal, so his own that we think they are about him, things from his own life and heart. This was not written by Freddie and was probably not about Freddie (correct me if I'm wrong). He poured so much feeling into everything he did that he often gets the credit or blame for whatever the song says. It was his great gift and burden. The videos and Freddie's story really add to the emotion.

    One of the most beautiful songs ever …. vocally performed by Freddie!! The song is from the musical TIME produced by Dave Clark who was a close friend of Freddie’s (See Janice Duke’s comment). Dave Clark was in a 60’s group called the Dave Clark 5. Also check out TIME sung by Freddie from the same musical. Do the stripped down version with just Freddie & Mike Moran on piano. 🎶🎶🎶

      One of the first people who heard the completed "Time" - album was Sir Laurence Olivier (as Dave Clark played it to him) as Lord Olivier appeared on stage not in person (he was in his late 70's and in frail health by then) but as a giant holographic image. ,ua-cam.com/video/eWXAiLy786A/v-deo.html. When "In My Defence" was over, he said: "What a performance! THIS is a real actor". Indeed. In 1987 Freddie made a one-night appearance in Dave Clark’s Time at the Dominion Theater to support friend Clark ’s musical, one night selling ice-creams 🍦 in the stalls! Can NOT imagine the customer's faces 😲

    This song is soooooooooo good, Freddie's vocals are insane, and the lyrics, OMG-OFTW!!! 💛🥰💛💯🥰🤟
    This one was from the 1986 musical "Time" by Dave Clark, who wrote it with David Soames and Jeff Daniels.
    The lyrics are great, but what brings it to life is Freddie's performance, the vocals reaching so high and the emotion he brings, the way he could and can make the words his own. 💛💯😎🥰🤟

      When Dave Clark hunted out the original track of Freddie solo, and re-leased it a few years back, it was startling to see - as though just done. A tribute to his friend that he thought should be shared in solo form. Rumor has it that there are still some secret treasures out there (Queen + Bowie). Patience is a virtue, I hope.

    Freddie declined to be in his friend Dave's hit show but agreed to record a song for the album. He heard someone perform In My Defense & was so moved he asked to sing it. Of course they loved it. The other song, that he' d been asked to do was Time ( or Time Waits for Noone.) He did both for the album. There's another video of his actual performance , a behind the scenes type thing. I love the one you showed, so many beautiful pictures & memories, but the other is also lovely.

    recorded in 86 For Dave Clarke album (musical)
    they became close friends and Dave visited him until the end
    he met the pianist Mike Moran when he was recording this
    he later asked him if he wanted to work on his solo album which was put to the side for Barcalona album
    I wish he had gone back to the solo though afterwards
    the other track he sang for the album was Time
    he always manages to sing songs as if they were written by him and personal to him,I guess with alot of songs there's something he can relate,connect to
    and he had plenty of practise through Queen!
    but it always feels genuine
    this song,it's surprising someone else wrote it because it feels like a personal message?
    in this video,the blonde woman with bobbed hair he kissed was Mary
    the clip where he kissed another woman was from his solo'born to love you' video
    the guy who put a towel around him was joe his ex from 78/79
    they became friends again in the 80s,he did the tours instead of his pa Peter,Joe was his chef and lived with him and Peter (platonically not relationship)
    they all moved to garden Lodge later on in 85

      The guitars are were played by Paul Vincent who also played the guitars on Mr. Bad Guy and imitated Brian's guitar-sound on "She Blows Hot And Cold". On this cut, he also sounds a bit like Brian.). His guitar-parts were recorded at Musicland Studios, Munich.

But again how very close to home it appears to be for Freddie .. Just as does Time Waits For No-One.
