@diablo254 my question is can we really describe Freddie Mercury as "from the 80's." He is timeless and should never be associated with that awful decade. True, many terrribly awfully awesome bands came out of the 80's but if they made it in the 70's can we truly say that they are an 80's band.
This was Freddie's second-to-last video and the last one where he was able to take any creative control. It was filmed in February 1991, and he passed in November of 1991. The reason it's in black and white is to hide Freddie's gaunt appearance at that point. Queen stopped performing live in 1986 due to Freddie's condition, so this song was never performed in front of an audience. Too bad, as it's a pretty good song.
who the fuk is john deacon ...dont bother answerein cause i probly wont follow up defnitely in tyhe next month look up jonq666 on youtube big things are planned
Freddie wrote this song out of a fear that he would get AIDS related dementia - a senility that happens in the final stages of the disease. The video is so light-hearted though, and as always, Freddie's great sense of humor comes through, despite his growing physical frailty.
John Deacon is not gay, and why has gay got to be made into an issue anyway, now shall i return a question are all groups from the 60`s 70`s 80`s 90`s and 2000 etc are they all straight. you may wonder why i am asking and it is exactly my point someone`s sexuality should not be an issue.
bouncestep, tell your friend to watch a documentary aboout Freddie's life, and she'll see that John Deacon WAS NOT A GAY, absolutely at all, even Freddy told to a journalist when he was asked about "I want to break free". the journalist tought that this song was for gay community, and he said that absolutely not, it wasn't composed by him, but by John Deacon

John Deacon is married and loved Freddie as a brother....why do u have to make a debate of his sexiality after so many years..ur girfriend is dumb... Freddy never let his private life come before the band....that is why he recored until his death...
Considering the pain Freddie was in at the time, this was quite the endurance test for him. He was actually wearing thermals under that suit. I don't know how he did it, except maybe his love for his craft and his fans.
i really agree with you. i think you can see it in many Queen songs, putting a happy optimistic feeling into kind of a negative issue (somebody to love, my melanccholy blues...)
Boy you could see that Freddy was real skinny in this video. If you couldn't tell that something was wrong with him then, you should be able to tell in this video.
Yeah, I agree! I felt very sad when I saw it, and thought it was more of a good-bye than "Who wants to live forever?" which should say something. I thought about "more like a slight case of AIDS!" and...Thanks for posting a good and sensitive comment.
My freind says that John Deacon is gay and was in love with freddie! i kept telling her no but she insists! If you think John deacon WAS NOT gay plese give this comment a thumbs up so i can show it to her.
Yeah, it's cool that John Deacon does that, that the stairs go, then he goes only leaving his joker hat. I couldn't believe it when I saw that on "Lover Of Life, Singer Of Songs" DVD when they said that all the other guys - Deacon, May & Taylor were all sweating during and after the video, Freddie was freezing cold because of the HIV Aids virus.
Yeah, I saw an inteview by Freddie's stylist, she said he even wore thermal underpants underneath all those clotes, and he was still freezing. Slightly mad or not, you rock Freddie!
