Obviously an anti handgun text. I love Queen, they're my favorite band especially the earlier work, but Hot Space was their worst album and the message of this song is naive and condescending. I'm not an American citizen, but I carry a concealed handgun legally, and my sons sleep safe at night because I'm here to defend us. My neighbor had a home invasion with multiple bad guys with guns while he was home. He was badly hurt. I'll give up my gun when every last bad guy has given up theirs.
Popcorn is my favorite snack. Don't get me wrong, but there's an old saying, "Ye shall know them by their fruit". Freddie was so sweet, and definitely fruity! I'm a musician and have been listening to Queen since the early 70's. My favorite at that time was the Rock Opera "Jesus Christ Superstar". You can blame Sigmund Freud for the rest. LOL!
"Put out the Fire" is the fire of lust that now they could all quench. A "weapon like a hole in the head", again Freudian; Male genitalia has a hole in the H_ _ d. "Let your sons & your daughters sleep sound in their beds" meaning sons & daughters of the Governments, or Lucifer. The band is "Queen" for Gods sake, & their early lyrics are Deeply Dark sweetened with "Choir-Like" voices.
@lambiziness "I Want to Break Free" by Queen, again meaning free from sexual discrimination, by either government/church/state; when Freddy says "god knows" he could mean either Lucifer, or "Almighty God" with a capitol "G", yet the fruit of his spirit would lean me more toward his likely lord: "Satan". Queen and Freddys lyrics became more radio-friendly with age but if you study Freddys early lyrics: very dark, yet delivered with whimsical style and flair. Succubus/siren style so be careful.
@lambiziness Wow Where the hell did you get all that? First, I want to break free doesn't have any "meaning free from sexual descrimination, by either government/church/state" And Freddie doesn't say anything like that, in fact, he didn't even write that song, John did, the purpose of the video itself is just fun. This is ridiculous, Queen are not a satanic band, stop taking your interpretations of their songs as general knowledge facts. You know nothing about their lyrics and what they meant.
@DILLONSONG really?, i always thought it was about a guy killing someone for not shaking his hand, and about a guy killing his wife and neighbor for sleeping together
Mad Masquerade refers to legislation being passed @ the time in the U.K., France, Netherlands & The Good 'ol USA protecting citizens sexual preference so now they have rights and can come out of the closet. The "Guns" & "Shooting " purely freudian, male genitalia symbolism. "Lover" means "Bi's" & "Gays" of "Tranny" types. Come'on Sheeple; wake up.
Actually that lyric toward the end there is not "Take It that far" it's "Take aim and fire" I believe like the rest of the song it is ironic in that Freddie is actually suggesting that you "take aim and fire" at that old-fashioned gun law, rather than suggesting to the listener that they fire a gun. The Chorus' words and the title "Put Out The Fire" are pretty clearly saying this song is anti-gun and for good reason.
@NearbyPlovis You might be one hell of a receceiver because when I listened carefully enough it's true that's what the line said "Take Aim and Fire"... Way to go man...Simply AWESOME!!!*
