  • What would be of us without cats?

  • my female dog's name is delilah ... xD

  • @SamuelLJacksonsFish

    BLASPHEMER! ALL QUEEN'S SONGS ARE PERFECT.

  • su amiga Delilah!

  • @Cziczeko I see your question re: whether Delilah is still alive. I do not know for myself, but just by math she was a full-grown cat by the time of his death so at least 1, and this year marks the 20th year since his passing. So if she WAS living, she would have to be at least 21 years old which is extremely remarkable for even the most well-kept kitty. My guess would be she is probably purring for him in heaven. And hopefully not peeing on his things anymore :-p

  • so Freddy did like pussy as well then!!!?

  • so he did like a bit of pussy as well!!!!

  • 0:54-1:02 Genialne ,wspaniały utwór !!!

  • Delilah went to live with Mary Austin. Delilah lived there at Freddie's home until she died of old age.

  • Thanks, that's good to know. I'm sure Mary took good care of her.

    @charann102

  • Delilah went to live with Mary Austin.

  • the way he holds onto some peace, is gracious, even when dealing with the end, is just inspiring.

  • This song is the funniest song ever written! xD :D

  • wooow

  • I do understand Freddie's love for his cats and his love for Delilah in particular..

    I've had many problems in my life but i am still here , and i have to thank my cats ,they gave me strength every time i needed..Animals like us for who we are , not for our money or fame ....

    I feel happy to know Freddie my favourite singer, was also a cat lover ..and i dedicate this song to my beloved cat TITOUTI who passed away last year..Freddie ,please take care of Titouti in heaven for me ...

  • @patpat76ds Cats are a great support in life. They calm the heart and comfort one with their warmth and deep peace.

  • What a voice.

  • What a great and fun song!....there's another song on the Innuendo album that Freddie wrote for one of his other cats, titled "Bijou", and it is also great. I love it.

  • @1aceves What I know is that Freddie's cats names are Tom, Jerry, Oscar, Tiffany, Delilah (his favorite cat), Goliath, Miko, Romeo, Lily ... "Bijou" is a painful song for me to listen to especially since it precedes "The Show Must Go On". Delilah has such a jovial, playful mood, whereas "Bijou" has a sincere sadness, not making a lot of sense as to why the contrast in tones regarding his cats. I doubt Freddie would put two songs about his cats on one album ...

  • @1aceves Freddie did this song with just Brian May and I really believe this was a song

    saying that they were meant to be to-gether in life, as great friends and band mates and

    that it was sad to have to part. Brian May's guitar was almost crying.

  • when i was listening to this song, i just had to go, catch my cat and hug him :D

  • 13 people hate cats.

  • @96gummyworms I guess they have got a hard allergy.

  • your cats's precious. Is it a siamese?

  • "And then you make me

    SLIGHTLY MAD

    When you pee all over my chippendale suite"

    One of the many things I love about Queen is how their songs refer to each other!

  • im starting to fancy Delilah myself :D

  • This song is so cute <3 I have a cat too and love my cat so much! Only see my cat a few times every year now because he lives with my parents, but I do have an idea what Freddie must have felt, knowing his days with his cats were running out.

    My biggest fear is to get a phone call from home letting me know something has happened to my family or cat.

  • I love this video, same as i love cats, nice to now that freddie loved his too.

  • Only cat owners can truly understand him in making this song! This is a FACT!

    I love my cat Tiger SO much it makes me want to cry sometimes! I'm in the Navy and serving overseas and only saw my boy for THREE WEEKS out of this entire year! Looking at him through a computer just isn't enough!

    I can only imagine the horrible sadness that Freddie Mercury must have felt knowing that he had numbered days with his beloved cats. It'd eat me up on the inside knowing I couldn't see my cat! Poor guy!!!

  • the best love song...

  • when i got Innuendo, i read the lyrics before i listened to the song... i was laughing, when ever i hear this song, i smile and think "i love my cat"

  • 1:37 looks like the cat is ready to do some serious karate chopping

  • What a song! It's so cute!

  • Like..some people today sings about getting drunk and it's sooo fun and they get money and fame for it, but Freddie sings about cats and it's 9000 better <3 Love you Freddie!

  • haha!! a fucking song about his cat!! :)

  • He was amazing unique! My special thanks to this guys.. his music change our lives.

  • The guys in Queen are how band members should be with each other. Too many of them are about the ego and money and tear each other up.

  • What would we all do without our cats? Don't even like to imagine.

  • I think Roger gave in on this song because he loved Freddie - and knew they were going to lose him. This song was important to Freddie towards the end, so the others supported him. Sweet. Freddie could not have had better friends than the boys from Queen who were always so loyal to him and still are.

  • Cats rule, dogs drool... Motherfuckers. Furballs for all, darlin'.

  • @MrChickenman1971 I dunno about you, but cat's drool, too, haha

  • adoro esta canción!♥

  • Apparently the 12 people who disliked this don't like cats.

  • Cats > Dogs

  • Brian May did a brilliant job of making his guitar sound like a cat though..... I used to think this song was the most annoying song ever, then I fell in love with the solo, and accordingly, the whole song!!

  • @honeycombfromheaven to make it sound like a cat, he used a talk box

  • i think bijou was a better cat, sorry XDD

  • I love my cats too! And this song is so sweet! Thank you Freddie!

  • Yeah, I love my cat too! But many think it's weird to love a cat, but if you love your dog, it's totally normal! But I like cats more than dogs, because dogs are always so exaggerating. Especially mine. But he's cute too :P

  • he is fuckiung legend.

  • lovveedddd. x

  • Pussy cats

  • i love your kisses

  • oh i thought this was the more traditional song.

  • I just adore this song with all my heart! I own a cat myself and I can't help but think of him and how much I miss him back home! I'm overseas on duty and I can't wait to get back home to my cat! Tiger, I'll be home soon!!!

    Brian May also wrote a Queen song for his childhood cat who died, it's called All Dead, All Dead - it's SO SAD!

  • What a song for a cat! But a cat can be very special! And so must have been Freddies cat.

  • freddie mercury, the greatest man and singer/writer of all time. I hope his family reads these and knows how much we all still listen, buy his work, watch his videos, read books about him, forever love you Freddie. what lucky cats to have Freddie. No one was nicer. Breaks my heart that today, Freddie would not die of aids.

  • may is god

  • CUUUUUUUUUUTE

  • Freddie was so sweet, he wrote a song for his cat! I'm curious if his cat enjoyed to hear this song :-))) i'm sure she did!

    I have a cat too, and this song makes me cry, becouse i love my cat so much! And i love Freddie so much!! So lovely song! "i love your kisses, Delilah you make me so very happy, i love you Delilah!" such sweet, only a person with feelings can write such song!

  • @harmonymarta Listen to All dead all dead -  Brians cat!!

  • Morrisela :(

  • Aaaaaawwww! That's so sweet! I just want to give Freddie a big hug right now. =')

  • I loooove this song!! And the way Brian makes the guitar "meow", fantastic!!

  • There is only Freddie to write a song for his cat.... and what good song ! ;)

  • Thank you so much for sharing this! I so love the fact that my favorite artist of all time loved his cats!!!

  • do you think that fredde never wrote a song for A PERSON, but he had wroted one for HIS CAT. O.o

  • @jann8lol Haha, nice theory. I don't think it's true - 'Life is Real' is subtitled 'a song for Lennon'; Barcelona (and presumably much of the album) was written 'for' Monserrat Cabelle, 'Love of My Life' was probably written for Mary Austen, and 'Mother Mercury', mentioned in 'My Fairy King' was supposedly his mother. Nonetheless, it was quite a nice thought!

  • @jann8lol Oh, yes! He loved so much his cats and he wrote this song for them.

  • Nice

  • Wow. Brian can make a guitar meow!

  • A truly wounderful man who will forever be missed.He was so brave,when he became ill,he never once complained or tried to seek sympathy.He just wanted to carry on recording.Such a brave man.Love him 4 ever.

  • Cats are capable of such depth and they have such complex personalities... Freddie obviously understood that... yet another amazing thing about him. He is very much missed by us all, cats or humans...

  • I think it's a great song beacuse it's so personal. Freddie sings from his heart, wich I really enjoy.

  • Glad that Roger Taylor relented and let Freddie record this one....Lighthearted and personal, it's a great tune...

  • Wow, of all the things to write about, Freddie writes about his cat.

  • i love cats!

  • I'd say more like millions of saddened fans!

    XD Gotta love a man at the top of the world that writes a song about his cat

  • @amodelqueso i know, right, it's just so amazing that he gave his time to write a song about his cat, the first ever to do that

  • @kronides Not neccesarily. I believe Jethro Tull (not sure about the dates) did it beforehand, their song Jack-a-lynn was a song about Ian Anderson's cat as well.

  • is it wrong that i love to sing this song to my own cats!? they love the meowing part lol

  • When you pee all over my chippendale suite

    hahahahaha

    I love them so much <3 they know how to make simple things beautiful :)

  • It's so weird that he loved his cat so much that he wrote a song for her. I'm sure she misses her, if she's alive. (: Nice song, not amazing, just nice (:

  • ps ; great guitar solo !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • The Brian May's "Red Special" connected with a "Talk Box" was produced this wonderful.

  • a song for his cat... it's funny... He is a great MAN

  • Especially when he says: delilha you're the apple of my eyes...It is exactly how I feel about my kitten.... this song is adorable

  • I don't know what it's wrong with you guys, I fucking love this song, it has a childish and bizzare rithm, just to mimic the funny walk of a cat and the funny things that cats do in houses.From this song I can imagine real Delilah going around freddie's house and making a mess everywhere.You can understand only if you have pets.

    plus it is very sad at the same time, cause delilah was one of the ultimate companies of poor sick freddie,

    It is bizzare and sad at the same time so freddie= genius

  • I used to dislike this song, but it grew on me.

  • a happy song meow

  • A childrens song for grown-ups :)

  • Freddie wrote this song for his cat, Delilah.

  • it's such a sad song thinkin' that freddie in few months had to die.

  • It's like a "goodbye" for his cats, a kind of "thank you for all".

  • i love this song

  • lol, he made this shit sound beautiful!!!

  • Boskie

  • Thanks for sharing that story - I'm a life long Queen fan and didn't even know that one.

    However, I don't agree with those who say this is one of their worst songs. It's brilliant.. and for comparison, just check out some of their old material (from the 70's).. it get's FAR worse than this :)

  • Their seventies releases, for the most part, are brilliant. Their eighties releases were a bit hit or miss; some were fantastic (Radio Ga Ga, Who Wants To Live Forever, I Want It All, as examples), while some were mediocre (Rain Must Fall, My Baby Does Me, Don't Try Suicide).

    I quite like "Delilah", as it's reminiscent of some of their more quirky songs from their earlier albums ("Bring Back That Leroy Brown" and "Seaside Rendezvous" come to mind.)

  • I cant't belive that Roger hated the idea of this song!

    this song is so happy! :D

  • One of Queen's worst songs! And it's still awesome.

    That says alot on just how good they were. Brian May's guitar solo in this is just sublime.

  • Yes, though it's one of THEIR worst songs, it's still kick ass!

  • I find it funny how this charming song is followed by The Hitman on Innuendo. You get blown away lol

    This song is defentily one of the more innocent songs on Innuendo.

  • RIP Freddye Mercury.

  • HAHA too cool! Never even knew this song existed until today..

  • I love Freddie and cats. I understand why he preferred cats than kids haha. I miss him... Meoooow

  • Thank you for posting. I wondered what Delilah looked like and she looks a lot like my T. Judy. Roger, you sound a lot like Judy, too, when she's asking for milk!

    Two things that make life more enjoyable: cats and listening to Queen. Meow!

  • Freddie- you make me so very happy when you sing with your beautiful voice

  • happy birthday freddie, you are so very beautiful , i love you.

  • Another reason to love Freddie... He was such an ailurophile (look that one up kids!)

  • I love this song... it kind of makes me emotional...

  • LUCKY DELILAH!!!

  • why is going to be one of the worst songs if this one has a lot of feelings in?

  • this isnt queen's worst song. Because it made me laugh XD

  • Mój kot jest całkiem podobny :-)

  • what are you talking about

  • I'm just thinking, it wasn't ok for freddie to do a song about his cat but it was fine for roger to do one about being in love with his car? haha!

  • and rodger sung his song to

  • @fairytaleforest why are you comparing between a damn cat and a car LOL

  • @RakHapoelPT I saw an interview about it once- saying the rest of the group were at first very reluctant to do a song about freddie's cats, But with him being so poorly they relented and then in retrospect were very glad they did.

  • @fairytaleforest Yep I remember hearing in an interview that the other members of Queen were not to keen on the idea of Freddies songs about his cats being included on their new album.

  • This song is so sweet and full of love.

  • i love this song soo

  • una chitarra che miagola, mai sentito niente di simile.Semplicemente UNICI :)

  • In some parts, Brian May's "Red Special" is meowing.

  • Cziczeko If you think your life is sad just listen to "spread your wings" every time you need to find an answer to your questions,if you want a better life just fight for it don't let the dark side prevail on you,c'mon you can do it if you want.

  • meow

  • Freddie Mercury...You just have to love him:)

  • I think is't inpossible his cat is still alive, but who knows?

    Freddie stay living is the hearts of his fans!

  • I like it ! its Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Just very beautiful .. love you freddie forever

  • miiiiauuuu miiiiauuuu miaaaaauuuuuu so fun

  • Freddie you are the most special and awesome person to ever have lived.

    This song Delilah is cute, loving and fun; just like you. Did you write Fooling Around for one of your cats?

    Love You Always

  • Yep. just like my Cat Floppiy.

    When he gets in A mood,WOUWIE

  • I LIKE IT!!!!

  • This is so sweet....

  • i funny this song and good at the same time

  • Comment removed

  • freddie baby.

    i love you, your unique in every way

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • Cute song,...

    Reminds me of my cat... :D

  • cats are the best!

  • I disagree with you, in my humble opinion this song is great! Ha! :D

  • only freddie could write a song about his cat....he was so awesome and will be missed forever

  • i think Lennon also would be able, A person with the vocals of Freddie and writing of John - what a PERFECT combo.

  • and Delilah was one of Freddie's ten cats

    there were some funny ones

    like Tom and Jerry:D

  • At the begginig, Roger Taylor thought a song about Freddie's cat wasn't exactly a great idea, but he agreed as it could have been one of Mercury's last desires.

  • well, thats exacly what the poster of this vid, writes in the corner
