Do you ever REALLY miss Freddy Mercury?

[ChefBilly]

Absolutely.
I'm a Queen fanatic. HUGE fan of the stuff you never hear on the radio. 'Fairy Feller's Master Stroke,' 'Jesus,' '39,' 'Teo Torriate,' 'Ogre Battle,' 'March of the Black Queen...'

What an amazing band and what an unforgettable voice.

My wife and I were going to have 'Seaside Rendezvous' as our wedding song, but the fast dancing was killing us.

Freddie Mercurys death was traumatic too me... He anounced he was HIV pos one day,he died the next...I heard at the time that he had tested positive 2 years before in 1989..I was infected 1 year later... I was looking at 18 months or so at the time,or so I was told,because my Tcells were low..I still wonder why freddie died so quickly,and I'm still here almost 15 years later..His being so silent about it was part of what motivated me to be open about it

DH and I both do-

We play Queen all the time on the road (we drive to WDW). It helps to make the time pass quicker, and I love to sing along with Freddie!!

All you Queen fans, can you answer me this question?

What was that one song about, anyway, the one where "Mama, just killed a man. Put a bullet in his head. Pulled the trigger now he's dead." Did that have anything to do with his having AIDS or was it just a song? I've always wondered, but he was a little before my time.

I really loved Queen music, but didn't really learn to enjoy Freddie's performances (just never paid attention) until it was too late. He was truely a showman.

That was me too.

That was Bohemian Rhapsody and it came out in 1973 or so..Well before he got AIDS
