- There are rock n’ roll lead singers and then there is Freddie Mercury. His flamboyant stage persona and four-octave vocal range made his live performances the center of some of the most epic rock concerts in the '70s and '80s.
Queen’s music was highly influenced by his theatrical style, which defied the conventions of a rock frontman at the time, but it’s what set Queen apart from other rock bands.
Mercury sadly passed away in 1991, at just 45 years old, due to complications from AIDS. Since his death, there are still things being learned about the enigmatic rock frontman. Watch this video to find out the details!

Freddie's unwavering love for Mary proves that we fall in love with a person's spirit, not their gender.
59Smythe Mary Magdalene ...
Beautiful way of putting it
59Smythe or...he loved her, and realised he was gay. Bisexual probably.
Amen to that! Same with me, I fall in love with the person...not the gender
A soulmate is not easy to dismiss.. 💖
The last vocal word Freddie recorded was ‘love’
Lukey Luke freddie in one word
Love of my life?!
in mother love, god that song makes me cry
Diane Bays mother love
Freddie is a good man ,,The world need like him....Some people got Hiv and they know that they are positive and but they spread to other ......Freddie is a good man ,,, He also know that love is the important one ,,, Love is everthing ,,that makes our spirit happy ....
I believe he loved Mary so much because she was the first person to really believe in him and accepted him for who he truly was. *True love* 💚
Freddie promised that he would always take care of Mary..........and he did, even after death. RIP FREDDIE..
Mary and Jim were his true love❤️
@@fjkxxx1204 He loved Mary more than Jim.
We all would be so lucky to have someone like that.
Yes he did love Mary and when I heard what he left her .he knows he loved her for him ❤not for money because he was a good man and wanted 2 take care of her and her ❤kids 4Ever and ever HE WAS SO AMAZING WISH HE NEVER GOT HIV 4 SURE.WHAT A beautiful man and a great ❤ im writing you all the way from BKLYN NYC GOD BLESS ❤
I saw a shooting star the other day and the first thing I said was “I’m burning through the sky yeah” RIP Freddie

Ever since I stumbled across Bohemian Rhapsody I have a huge obsession with queen
Edit: the song, not the film
Same here. Non stop listening to Queen or watching the movie or playing the songs on guitar
I was Lucky enough to have been introduced b Wayne’s World around the age of 12 and haven’t fallen out of love with freddie and the boys.... I tried to find everything I could back in the day... I had all the tapes and then the cds etc. a few bootlegs that I found some how and now holy fuck yutube has every god dang concert they almost ever performed! And more information that you almost wish ya didn’t know ha, u know what i mean...but yes queen and their music and their whole existence are super addicting and I know almost everything at this point and I still want more!
Hi I’m Julia same
Same thing I was at a thanksgiving party and this song came on when I got home I asked my mom about it and she told me a little bit but she didn’t know much so we did some research on him and listened to some songs I immediately love him and now Freddie and Queen are my romodels
Aar Kay mee too
They will never be another Freddie Mercury and still so sadly missed
Edward Lancaster there's a band called The Struts, he doesn't sing like him much but the lead singer looks almost identical to Freddie
@@Chronas9.9 kind of but not exactly
There will never be another.... Faithless fools.
Edward Lancaster such a crying shame that he died in his prime… Furthermore, out of all people. The remaining members of Queen decided to have Adam Lambert to be the lead vocalist? Like what the shit?! I mean I understand that Freddie’s last wish was that the show must go on (pun intended). But seriously, the remaining members could’ve and should’ve hired someone with much more talent that would make Freddie Mercury himself go “you’re good”.
Shortguy, da fuck?
That legendary Freddie & Diana night out sounds like a movie idea!
Or at least a part of the movie
sounds like a plot for a pg-13 ep of a disney channel sitcom. lol crazy disguises. ive known about this for awhile but im surprised that he was able to spend a whole night with her. she was royalty so im surprised she didnt have some curfew and constant chaperoning or whatever. glad she had fun and was able to let loose

*Things We Learned About Freddie Mercury After He Died*
#1: He was not immortal
Except he sort of is... Almost 30 years after his death, we're still talking about him.
@@leopold7562With Music like his? Of course he is Immortal
@@paulghencea9037 You have hit the nail on the head Paul. He was absolutely wonderful, and for me he will always remain one of the most incredible singers ever!
@Emanuel Ismerio yep I can guess where that could be.
I died reading this thank you
Who got Queen Fever, after seeing " Bohemian Rapsody "????? I can t stop watching them,on and on,for three weeks!
I've loved Queen since I was a kid (almost 40 now). Welcome aboard :) You will never have a love affair with another band like you do with Queen. If you haven't yet, hit up their official YT channel. So much amazing music. Some of my favorites are Liar, Spread Your Wings, Somebody To Love, Let Me Entertain You, Dragon Attack and Jailhouse Rock (All Live @ Montreal '81), I Want To Break Free, Tear It Up (Lyric Video), White Queen (Live @ Hammersmith '75), Live Aid, The Show Must Go On, No One But You (Only The Good Die Young), Under Pressure (Live @ Wembley '86), but there is so much more! The One Vision documentary (what you see @ 9:06-9:12) is good stuff. There's a great line from Freddie that involves John Deacon in it :)
Happy Queen-ing!!
Don t you worry dear,I am inlove with Queen since i was 12 years old,and now i m 53!... I know every word of their songs, and their music was the music of my first love. I watch every concert, every video, everything was linked to them.But i m sure,that many fans of Queen developed a " fever" after the movie reminded us all about Freddie s life and Queen!
The movie was awful.
Me but before the movie, tho. Still loved bohemian rhapsody tho!
Memememememememememememememememememem
My mate’s dad met him in 82’. He worked in the concert business and apparently freddie had to switch hotels like 5 times before he got satisfied. He also described him as very shy and introverted.
Thats hilarious! Tell us more. Which hotel satisfied him.? Which didnt? Hilarious. Sounds like Freddie
Did Freddie make a pass at him?
Alejandro Mavarez i guess every story is fake nowadays... let him tell his story and move on

cheer up fellas, that just means he'll be back eventually

I don't care what he was, he was and always will be my favorite singer/artist.
I will never forget watching him perform on Live Aid as a teenager. I still can’t find the right words to describe it.
Robert Arthur electrifying, breathtaking... I could go on forever...
dead xo no words could describe how that performance left me feeling.
@Kevin Prima There was also this, though. Audio is clearer and more magical elsewhere, but it's nice to see it. ua-cam.com/video/iEtdqRriHB0/v-deo.html
please tell me more! i’m 18 and i’ve watched that performance more times than i can count. if i could go back to one point in time, it would be that concert!
I watched his performance on it last night. I was only 4 back then.

@@XmanSully it was "do what you want with my music, just dont make it boring"
@@temporel7216 thank you
Don’t make me boring
Freddie was such a strong man. He never complained about that he was going to die. He wanted to make music and did that till the very end, altough he knew he was dying he went to the studio to create one last masterpiece: The innuendo album, what was a goodbye to his fans.
his love for mary is just so precious it makes me sad
I love Freddie's speaking voice as much as his singing voice.
Me too
me too hi speaking voice is so soothing to me fo some reason though he died when I was 6 I feel now as if I have come to know him
"The show must go on" was recorded 6 weeks before he died! He was amazing!
Wrong.
Cheri No, that was “A winter’s tale!”
@@Imsorryman It's at 6:54 they mention it.
@@danijel-ch2gk It's at 6:54 they mention it.
I see now ... But they're very much wrong. Mother Love, the song they correctly said was finished by Brian, was recorded 6 months before Freddie died. A Winter's Tale is Freddie's last completed song.
The Show Must Go On is from their Innuendo album that was recorded in 1989 and 1990.
When it comes to trivia and other interesting stories like that, I find Wikipedia to be far more reliable source. I'm thinking of unsubscribing from channels like this.
EDIT - My bad, they say the song was RELEASED as a single 6 weeks before his death. Still, bad job on this video overall.
Mary Austin must be some kind of woman if Freddie trusted her so completely. Rest In Peace Freddie, we love you and miss you. Say hello to my parents Freddie!
His Sexual Orientation has no baring on the fact that Freddie Mercury was an absolute genius and icon in his own right. Why to this day, do people feel the need to focus on Freddie’s sexual preference, rather than his extraordinary musical abilities. R.I.P. Freddie’s Mercury, you are forever missed!
Yeah but even the bigots sing Bohemian Rhapsody, which I think that would make Freddy Faruk ( not sure spelling) can look down from heaven and smirk his smirk sashy sashy . RIP Freddy
I feel the same way Anita. I just left my comment and I'm heart broken, because Freddie's been gone 31 years, and he's not resting in peace. This infuriates me. There is NO perfect person on this planet!! Blessings to you Anita. From Illinois USA 🇺🇸 July 6, 2022
Bohemian Rhapsody is forever I 👏co👏 ni c👏
@@Queen71373 what are you talking about?
When does sexual orientation matter ever?
Nobody deserves to know exactly where his remains are at,only his one true friend.Bless their heart's.
I think if you guessed correctly you deserve to know... considering you would have to be a true fan/friend to be able to guess that well. Right?
It was his wish for no one else to know and as true fans/friends everyone has to respect that
Well, I'd say his family deserved to know too. It's easier to grieve when you have a place to visit your loved one
@@DS9TREK maybe they do, only they know. Maybe she only said she was the only one who knows, saving his family from nosy fans and paparazzi following and harassing them. Still, if it's in his will...
I think it's fine while Mary is alive but really she should tell someone before she dies, he had and has so many fans and people who love him its kind of selfish to keep it from everyone when he is gone and then she'll be gone. What does it matter at that point?
"I will fu**ing do it, darling" :D
That's so Freddie xD
buteteng laot
Wtf is wrong with you, I know he was gay but that’s not even funny
Bendy the ink Demon
That’s what Freddie said during one of the last recording sessions they had before he died. Brian thought that he was too weak to sing. Legend has it that he threw back a vodka, propped himself up on the mixing desk, said, “I’ll F-ing do it darling” and killed it! And that IS so Freddie, just as bifa said.
LIM 42
No, that wasn’t what I was replying to, someone had a pretty rude comment under this and I replied to that.
Bendy the ink Demon
Oh, I’m sorry about that!
LIM 42
Absoloutley fine mate :))
In the mid '70's at a Queen gig, the power went off and Freddie famously said: "We'll pose and you just look at us".
Best one liner in rock.
He was talented, generous, and funny.
A one off.
PEACE, LOVE & EQUALITY.
It’s sad that I can imagine people goi g to dig up Freddie’s ashes......how rude😡
How sweet and amazing Mary is for keeping his secret❤️❤️❤️
didn't michael jackson bring like a lama or something into the studio and that was the reason the two never did that album
JYZProductions Yup Michael brought his Monkey “Bubbles” and Freddie got annoyed that Michael would constantly talk to the monkey.
Correct.
The worked together and have songs that weren’t finish and still unreleased, lets just say MJ was a perfectionist and felt if songs aren’t complete. They shouldn’t be release
Yes
@@user-jk3ho7uo1s Sorry but it was the Llama

Ella Alcock he looks adorable
You are not the only one, he's the cutest thing ever
Made him more genuine
The first time I heard "Who Wants to Live Forever"; I seriously bawled my eyes out. I was at such a 'bottom point' in my life, and that song turned me around. I can't explain how, be it 'crying hard enough to perk back up' or the song being inspirational... I honestly do not know... Will love Freddie now and forever.
No, Freddie was annoyed that Micheal kept bringing his lama into the studio 😂
lol jesus christ thats just insane. Y did Mike feel the need to bring a WHOLE ASS LLAMA to a recording studio? 😂 hahha gotta love them both
😂😂😂
I was 8 years old when Freddie died, but I still mourn for him at almost 36. He was such a talented musician and amazing human being. There is simply no topping the talent and stage presence of Queen.
He had the greatest voice in the universe..R.I.P Freddie💖
2nd greatest( first would obviously be elvis )
@@abhaysaurav7499 yeah
@@abhaysaurav7499 2nd to Michael Jackson.
I agree 100% Freddy was a genius
Pish, Cheryl Cole is better
He’s brought so much happiness and emotion to so many, the death he had was tragic. I only wished he had been diagnosed when treatment options were available that actually worked. I’m sure all us Queen fans will love them all of our lives!
I will add Brian May is another legend.
One of the top ten best guitar players there is
Bri imo was second only to Hendrix
Ferguson Ferguson John Deacon and Roger Taylor too
@Ferguson Ferguson not to mention he's one hell of an astrophysicist
I will add that, Roger Taylor, and John Deacon are legends, too. As Freddie Mercury said, in the film, Bohemian Rhapsody, "We are all legends".
I cant believe i miss someone who ive never seen live or even live on tv i wasnt even alive when he was alive and i still cry over what happened to him ❤️❤️
Me too. I realized I've been listening to Queen all my life without knowing and how much of a classic rock fan I am tho I was raised on r&b. I'm glad that he had true love. The message I got from the movie was have the courage to be yourself
Saddest part is the fact that those with AIDS back then had to leave the US for treatment. Look in to those who kept it from them...you'll note a familiar name: Fauci.
I can, finally, watch his videos without crying. If I need a good cry, I know which songs to pick because I know what he was dealing with at the time. Peace, out.
Cool about Freddy Mercury befriending HRH Princess Diana and they giving her paparazzi free nights out. Yay!!!
They were both good people, gone too soon RIP
They don't mention the fact that Freddy refused to tell the Medics who he had been with ! So may have condemned a few of his lovers to death !
Apparently this is t true but a myth.
Kevin Prima How naive. LOL
2 of my favourite people both deaths really shook me up.
I feel bad for Freddie having to go through such awful pain and misery... it's amazing how much love he has for his fans, ban mates and his ex fiance. Wish I could give him a hug..
Mary is very Loyal in her love for freddie and keeping his burial secret is so Honorable, I Thank her for that. ❤
I had the honor to have worked moving their stuff all over the World for a couple of years. They were all really great Bosses. The last time I ever say them was at Wembley Stadium on the Saturday show.
The whole band were superior showmen. No matter how tired I was I tired to watch every show.
I still have a doodle Freddie gave me. He was pretty shy until the Stage Freddie took over.
Thanks for the band we call Queen, Gentlemen.
A doodle? Like he drew it himself? Do you mind sharing it? That's fucking awesome!
@@rjcomeaux5461 agreed....I'd love to see what he would just throw out at random....doodles can tell you a lot about someone's mindset
Thank you for sharing those memories
Kevin Prima yeah, they definitely never hired people to help them! Queen only carried their stuff by themselves! Ffs stop trying to be the story police.
kutzbill that's an amazing story! You must feel so blessed to have been a part of the legacy in your own small way. Congratulations, I would feel so lucky to have experienced what you got to live for real. Hats off to you, sir.
I have a whole other level of respect for the song "Show must go on" for him to be sick during rehearsals I got so much respect for this man to push himself to the limit to get it done! Wow!
Never knew the genius of f.m.and queen. After the movie i realized how much that band contributed to the music world. We will never see another f.m. rip.
The greatest front man ever ...
He held every audience in the palm of his hand.
The MJ and Fred fact was not true. Michael Jackson kept bringing his llama to the studio and Freddie got annoyed and decided he couldn't do it
Lmfao
HIS LLAMA. I AM DED.
Actually it was Bubbles his chimp he kept bringing to the studio.
Dang it MJ

But, don’t we all miss him?
R. I. P. Freddie, you’re now a shooting star leaping through the sky...
yeah we all miss him he is legendary...
Yes Catherine my love,u look very beautiful
I feel the same about Mac Miller. It's just all about the sense of security we had listening to their masterpieces.
Catherine Vaz, I feel you completely, Freddie is the only person I grieve for that I've never even met. I still cry about Freddie's death to this day. Totally irreplaceable ❤👑❤
Don't worry. You're not alone. He's been dead for 28 years now...
Tell me Freddie, Diana and David Bowie went out and I will lose myself! Three of my favorite people....ever.
I understand your pain for me it’s my great grandma, Freddie and Bowie.
Freddie isn't a rock legend. He's transcended space, time and mortality itself to become the ultimate rock god. Simply put, he was one of a kind.
"I'll fucking do it darling"
We love you Fred, we'll never forget you.
I like this guy, don't care if i never really new him ...his spirit speaks for him.
I'm very much an older Freddie Fan. I listened to Queen music when I was young but never saw them onstage. After Bohemian Rapsody I bought everything I could lay my hands about Freddie. I became obsessed and still am. Im 80yrs old and I love all things Queen and Freddie. I drive my family crazy playing Queen music. Lol
I know this comment is late but i was busy... People learned that Freddie was more lovelble than ever and more legendary than anyone. He was so happy but so lonely in side.... He just wanted a good life.... I really thank Jim that he sped with him his last days and it warms my heart for so so long .... I am a really dear BIG FAN of Queen and I can't stop crying.... ♥♥♥♥ I hope he's in heaven know....
People tell me, "Queen is touring, you can finally see them!" No no no it's not Queen without Freddie. I've seen countless rock acts and I'll continue to see more but Queen is the one band I never got to see. Not seeing them without the one and only, Freddie Mercury!
I seen queen with paul rogers from bad company now that was pretty close to the real deal about 13 years ago
Yeah Paul Rodgers was idolized by Freddie, the Queen + Paul Rodgers stuff was the closest we'll ever have to queen since the passing of Freddie.
Indeed. The records show it. When was there a Queen hit after Freddie Mercury died ?
Wow: such stupid comments: If you go to see Queen in concert you will enjoy a brilliant show without Freddie. If you are waiting to see Freddie again you may as well hold your breath until you turn blue. lol Both Brian May and Roger Taylor are still around and they bring the music to life. The newest front man, Adam Lambert, does not try to copy Freddie's singing, he interprets the songs in his own way and does a great job. I've seen the show and it is a great tribute to Freddie. If you are such purists, you should never have seen Bohemian Rhapsody either.
So true. No offense to adam! Adam is amazing, he is very talented and is probably one of my inspiration as well but Queen is not queen without Freddie nor Deaky.
1:48 that guy is too awkwardly close to Freddie.
Yeah you can even tell with the sunglasses on that he's like "buddy back it up a few inches"
@@caitloyal lol..if you look at freddie he looks a bit uncomfortable with him being so close to him..lol
You can tell by the way freddie is pressed on the couch and kinda leaning away awkwardly
freddie looks funny lol he's like get Elvis grandpa away from me lol
the man looks like he might aswell start sitting on his lap
Freddie was in love with Jim. It is likely that he left 50% of his income and his house to Mary because she was healthy and she had children. At the time Freddie wrote his will he knew that Jim was also HIV positive. He could not have known that Jim would live to 2010. I don't think him leaving the majority to Mary meant he loved her more. There is plenty of evidence of how much he loved Jim.
juliact This is a good point.
juliact He left a majority to her because to him she was “his lawful wife” So by that it means she got half of everything. Even though they never married he truly believed she was his kind of soul wife. He left the other to Jim to tell him he loved him as well.
@@hallew.k7360 I believe Mary had a legal husband and two sons, by the time of Freddie's passing?
Ginny Hernez that’s why I put quotes around “lawful wife.” He believed she was his lawful wife, and best friend. So that’s the way he saw it.
@@hallew.k7360 Freddie dearly loved Jim at some point in his life; he lovingly accepted Jim's ring and Freddie wore it, ever since.
The amount of trust he has for her is just beyond gold
"Whether or not his voice was really capable of hitting four octaves is something the scientists weren't able to determine" - if only there existed some recordings of him singing that could be checked with a tuning app or by someone with perfect or very good relative pitch... Also, it's not mentioned in the video, but that 2016 study based it's conclusions... by examining a Freddie's imitator. What kind of bullshit methodology is this?
Nice Propaganda - from the GREAT PRETENDER - haa haa
Well, they can't just revive Freddie, and check out how his vocal cords worked. The best they could do to see how it may have worked in real time is to find an imitator who could sound super close. That's typically how that's done. You try your best to replicate something if you don't have direct access to it. The recordings of his voice were likely also thoroughly studied, but that's only going to reveal so much.
I guess you're right, but I'm really confused why they couldn't determine Freddie's voice range basing on the available recordings - even on youtube there are several videos showing different clips from Freddie's lowest recorded sounds to the highest. Perhaps if he had claimed that he can go lower or higher then the recordings show, I would understand that, but the recorded material shows pretty much four octaves. Not to mention unreleased tapes used for layring the vocal harmonies, I wonder if they tried to reach out to the producers to study them. Besides, I wonder how close to the Freddie's voice the imitator could get.
True that 'if we only had recordings' but alas we don't.
Playing it by ear and adapting is an amazing feature even AI can't always do. So an impersonator is about as close as we're going to get like for a remaster of an album. That's essentially what remasters are in the stead of a deceased artist. Problem is (long and short of it) these may still not work.
While vocals and guitars are very different, imagine if you will that guitar playing at its most proficient becomes expressions of the player. The problem with perfect replication, is actually duplicating the _imprefections_.
I can pull off the voices of Beavis & Butt-Head, but there's some laughs butt-head does which I can't replicate.
Matter of fact Mike Judge himself for season 4 doesn't quite sound the same as Beavis did in the 90's anymore.
Check out Barcelona album (2012 Remastered). Song titled Exercises in Free Love. Freddie signs the entire soprano part. In the song Ensueno, it is the same song, but he sings the tenor and Montserrat Caballe sings the soprano. He easily demonstrates his range with these two recordings. It's a treasure!!
What I learned?
Freddie will always be a legend
I love Freddie always
@Jodes Naughties Boomer
@Jodes Naughties not only boomers knew that but also people who listened to his music and/or watching videos on him.
Freddie's talent will never be duplicated, I have no doubt he's rockin' in heaven as only he can!
thank you for interlacing this vid with real facts about HIV/AIDS. Freddie was such a beautiful person...I hope people will remember that and not just the HYPE
Freddie probably is looking down on us and saying, “Don’t worry my darlings. I’m better off up here anyway.”
PPl still think he was gay?? He is a classical bisexual! Attracted to both sexes for different reasons is textbook bi....
Everyone's beautiful darling!
Many people close to him report that he considered himself gay
@Steve johnson He's not gay if he's also attracted to women too...
@Scissor Hanz There's about as much evidence for that as there is for God existing.
Scissor Hanz disgusting. An utterly disrespectful and unwanted comment made by another religious preacher.
Other artists: I feel ill. I can't preform today, cancel the show.
Freddie: I'm dying, let's make more music, THE SHOW MUST GO ON.
Thank you for getting a sense of the full picture, focusing not only on his career but also his personal life and additional info regarding the illness, as well as clearing up the myth about his teeth being the reason for his voice/vocal ability. Great stuff, he was and will remain a legend.
A video about Mercury without a single note of his singing voice? That's sad
Um, copyright issues?
@@marthamattix7683 and @The_Talking_Banana
You can use small segments under free use. Plus, this would be considered an educational video, further protection under free use. It could also be considered a critique depending on what they're saying around the audio clip, further protection under free use.
Not using ANY of the audio is just being scared and not giving the audience what they expect.
@@Richard_Nickerson I completely agree with you, but unfortunately even using a small segment of the track can easily land you a copyright strike on youtube and if you have a huge channel, the risk of loosing a video over few seconds of audio is not worth it.
@@antcare2804
A copyright claim is hardly damning, and far from unbeatable. Most claims are made by automated programs designed to recognize audio and/or video. If you dispute the claim reasonably, the copyright claim will be lifted.
What you're describing is what I already said channels like this are: just afraid.
A video like this could likely dispute a claim for the use of an entire song's vocal track... educational videos and critical videos fall under fair use. This video would be completely fine, even if there was an initial claim they had to dispute. Believe me, I've done it many times. Successfully disputing a claim doesn't affect your copyright record in UA-cam's eyes.
And even if you didn't win the claim? Delete the video and repost it. Channels do that all the time.
Not doing the obvious thing that would both improve the video and please viewers out of fear of the lightest slap on the wrist which you can have taken back? That's being a big old pussy.
Article 13 is already lying in wait.
"Things we learned about Freddie Mercury...". I learned that when I heard the Magic album I should have been listening much earlier. He was one of the greatest showmen to grace this planet.
There will never be another singer like this man R.I.P freddy
NOBODY can stop Freddie ! He's still alive and he's a Legend and legends never die
larger than life man and voice..............RIP you will never be forgotten.....
Think about this: Queen’s 1975 track Bohemian Rhapsody which originally appeared on their fourth studio album A Night At The Opera, has been streamed 1.6 billion times, making it THE MOST STREAMED SONG from the 20th century and the most streamed classic rock song of all time!
RIP FREDDIE MERCURY. YOU ARE LEGENDARY. WE MISS YOU.

@@nellinightshade3358 I loved Highlander!
I’m so happy that people are coming to know Freddie Mercury and Queen through the movie, but I really want people to stop bashing the band’s decision to focus on the music and Freddie’s relationship with Mary Austin. Freddie never wanted his male relationships or his illness to be fodder for the public, so why in the hell would his bandmates/brothers disrespect his memory by putting those issues in a film?! I’m all for LGBTQ 🏳️🌈 pride but Freddie said himself that he never wanted to be a poster boy for the cause. Let his memory Rest In Peace and get over yourselves. His sister and Mary Austin and his Queen family knew him best... so I hardly believe they would dishonor him with lies in a film meant to honor him. Yes, there were chronological liberties taken to accomplish telling the story within the timeline of the film (they wanted to end with Live Aid in 1985) but his loved ones were not trying to make him look bad or themselves look superior to him. I can’t stand it when the public assumes they know more than the people Freddie himself trusted and loved.
DAMN GOOD POINTS. THATS WHY THE BAND WANTED TO TELL THE STORY THEMSELVES
If times had stayed the way they were it would have been a different situation. However times have changed a great deal since Freddie's passing with same sex marriage and the medications for the illness. It's a totally different and much more accepting. Overall the band knew the story was worth telling and they were so right.
Deborah All true, but there are those that say that Brian and Roger had their own agenda with the film,
not just to avoid any riff raff about Freddie's escapades, but to tell the story as THEY wanted to tell it,
not necessarily as it actually happened, which is what the movie was supposed to be...
a biopic about Freddie's involvement! Personally, I would have liked to see a little more in the beginning
of the film about how "Smile" formed and what made Tim Staffell leave, how he and Freddie were friends,
and how it came about that Freddie got the position of lead singer... all that was just too condensed!
The whole film, for that matter, was too condensed, but, all that aside, it was just what I was hoping for!
I agree, on all points. Let the story be about the music, and, as far as Freddie's relationship with Mary, it was clearly the most important one in his life, and I feel like they paid due respect to that, and her.
@@lisamelroy2855 Thank you, and yes I tend to agree with everything here also. Sascha would have played a great Freddie, but he was too tall, first of all, and yeah, he probably would have turned it into a raunch-fest, but if he had done it the way Brian and Roger wanted it, I think he could have played the part well. Malek did a great job though... he really channeled Freddie very well! :-)
RIP Freddy! I hope NOBODY EVER will find your resting place. You haven given humanity such a big package of pleasure in your life, even after your life billions of people listen to your music on a daily basis. One of a kind entertainer, a big treasure for humanity. You deserve to Rest In Peace!
We still miss you, Freddie. :-(
Hi dear, how are you
Freddie had the courage of 10,000 men
No, he just had 10,000 men.....
Issie Puente 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 men.
Yesssss admirable
@@johno4521 who r u disrespectful idiot
@@mohanpremaratne517 ikr, disrespectful and not funny at all
He still has the greatest voice in all of rock history. You will never find somebody else of his equal. Freddy was truly one of a kind.
He was a legend! Love his personality, love his passion and he really was the great pretender.. Queen was in a class of their own and surpassed the Rolling Stones on all levels
“I will fucking do it, darling”
That’s our Freddie! ❤️
No one is entitled to your money but I see how after 7yrs spent together Jim Hutton was disappointed that Mary got nearly everything he had.
Jim deserved more
Charlotte H I mean he still got 500,000 pounds that’s a lot but let him keep the house or something
@@cattherapyandrescue5713 No disrespect to Mary but I think it was a little mean to kick Jim out of the mansion considering that it was also a huge loss for him when Freddie passed.
@@charlotteh2280 but as I know he left with half million :)
@@lurker6918 I read that the will needed to go through legal channels, and that is why Mary had him leave. It was legally mandatory.
He STILL is the GREATEST..💟💜
We learned how much we missed his music, and seeing him perform
I just loved watching and listening to this. It was so interesting. Thanks so much for sharing it!
I grew up with Queen from the age of thirteen. The first five albums defined my life. Queen 1 & 2 are especially important to me and I listen to them often. There will never be a group of musicians who can eclipse them.
RIP Freddie Mercury, The Greatest Singer Of All Time
TJ Fritz Plant?
@@mikehunt9434 his was blues freddies was operatic high pitched that sounded amazing
@@mikehunt9434 what a joke and freddie is the best singer of all time and in history
Greatest Male Singer, perhaps. RIP Aretha Franklin, the other Greatest Singer of All Time.
😂😂This a joke, right?!??
I always loved his music. I"m in my 60's and the movie was great,..thank you for uploading his music..
Loved this video. I’m speechless! In extreme awe.... 😍🥰
One i love about Freddie is this his voice gives me goosebumps from hearing it and he is so funny and shame he has gone.
If you love someone enough you know when to let them go. Mary did this despite her emotional pain at doing so. She knew him before he was famous and she remained his best friend until the end. Hutton and others could not replace her he said that.
She worried where he's was going but she was always there for him. And he loved her for it. I for one cannot imagine her emotional pain as she watched the love of her life distroying himself.
He didn't destroy himself. He had a disease in case you failed to realize this. We're attracted to whom we're attracted to. Back then they were just learning about AIDS and there was no way he could have known what would happen due to his sexuality. He was not self-destructive, and to characterize him as such is wholly incorrect and unfair, not to mention highly disrespectful to the man himself.
Had he been self-destructive he would have held onto the destructive influences in his life, rather than shedding them, which is what he did just in time for Live Aid.
@@dakotaword1913 Laughing. Compared to his peers his drug use was minimal and he tended towards long term relationships.
People were all going crazy im from a farther who had his wife over the rd from us he started to go skinny 91 an was thinking the worst turned out it was type two diabeties freddie would of just been having a crazy time on coke and not caring on top of the world with pain in his heart for mary
Wow! Thanks so much for this eye opener!! RIP Freddie Mercury..
Thank you, for this video. I'm a musician and have a great appreciation for music on many levels. Queen is one of my favorite bands and Freddie Mercury is absolutely one of my most favorite artists. Not just because of how much I enjoyed their music, but because of my appreciation for his absolutely unbelievable talent for writing and singing. I'm very familiar with much of the history, but this video gave me information that I didn't know and was very interesting. Again, thank you!
Freddie Mercury will be a legend for many many years to come, best vocal voice ever, R I. P. Freddie we all love you ❤️👍🙏😤
The Greatest Showman that graced the stage,no other Person can touch him and his persona.Godbless and thanks for the music Freddie 🙏♥️
Actually Michael Jackson was electric on stage. Lets not hero worship too hard. He was quite unique but not the only unique amazing performer.
Mr. Mercury, you will NEVER be forgotten!! Thank you for the legacy of great music you left behind!
Freddie Mercury was one of the absolute best, if not the best, singers of all time.
Excellent video and great commentary. Amazing info re an amazing talent!! Love Freddie more than ever now. R.I.P. Freddie!!
I'm never just a rockstar, I'm a legend - Freddie Mercury 👑❤️ it's sooo true and legends never die 🙏❤️ He's gone, but he never will be forgotten👑🙏 RIP Freddie🥀❤️👑
I admire your work. That is a lot of thought, research, and effort. ThX! D
People who saw Freddie live are the luckiest ever. Unfortunately I was born in the wrong generation. But hey, there will never be another Freddie Mercury and I will always love him and Queen❤️
Trust me you don’t want to be born then. You would have to wait years for the amazing songs
Mr. McBean That‘s also true😂😂 Whatever
I luckily seen the group Queen at Slane Castle they where my first concert i seen they where brilliant along time ago in the mid 80s there music will live on forever the film is brilliant
I love Freddy Mercury and the rest of Queen Genius!
WE MISS YOU FREDDIE....RIP.. 💋💋💖💖😥😥🎵
One thing I recently learned about queen was that Freddie and Brian had sort of a stage war going on about who could be louder, so it would be almost impossible to hear anything on stage.
I just love that fact, because it's sort of like brothers messing around, just on a bigger scale
