I'm really enjoying these because they dive into more depth detail of Freddie and how can you not love him more and more every time? He was the consummate professional but loved to have a good time while putting out a stellar product. Thank you, David Mallet, for your wonderful narration of the videos you directed Freddie at. You two were made for each other like peanut butter and jelly and put out excellent videos which will be enjoyed by generations to come.

@Joe Al "My Love Is Dangerous" is amazing!!!!!! 😍♥️💙💚💛💜💕 Freddie wanted to get experimental in other musical rhythms in his solo album besides the rock, opera, glam rock, hard rock or disco with Queen.

[@KingstonHomeMaintenance]

It's a shame that most people believe that Living on My Own was a 90's dance song after Freddie's death. Much prefer the original on the Mr Bad Guy Album.

[@lumaalessandra7535]

@@KingstonHomeMaintenance That's true, "Living On My Own" is from 80's before Freddie's death.

[@Bibiana862]

Yes, and there is a name for this, it’s called OFMD. “Obsessive Freddie Mercury Disorder” and there is no cure, because we don’t want one. Freddie was not just another singer, he is a feeling. Freddie gets into your heart and into your soul, and once he’s there he’s there forever. There is something so incredible about him that we don’t think of him as gone, because his presence is still very much alive. So your not alone, millions of people have the same disorder. If I’m going to have any kind of disorder this is the one I want. We genuinely love him
