Queen - freddie mercurys last days with interview of brian may

[mintyspace]

this video made me very sad :(

[facumixer]

Stop AIDS keep the promise.

[SparkysSparklers]

It's bloody awful that the press hounded him like that, and almost forced him to release a statement confirming he had HIV/AIDS. Why couldn't they just leave him alone???

His talent and that wonderful voice will always go on. Thanks for all the songs <3

[efremch0]

Something got in my eye :{

[juankeny88lives]

makes me cry a lot everytime i see , with his last year

[juankeny88lives]

Freddie Mercury The Best Singer of All Times

[liveMusicRights]

I was just sad and taking in the info for most of this, and then when it said he announced the day before his death, and when he died,...I got really sad. Then, "Farrokh Bulsara was finally home," just made me bawl as if it was my own parent that died. RIP my love, we will love you forever and you are still, in fact, alive to me every single day. <3

[liveMusicRights]

Roger looks so sexy and studious and beautiful in this. :)

[ilovefreddie99]

We need more people like freddie in this world!!

[meownathawan]

I will always love you freddie.....I mis you very much.........

[1A157]

True brotherhood among the band to protect him from the dastardly press!!

[deepblu1000]

Freddy for ever....the best ..

[fabyon]

The final " I still love you" will always make me shed a tear ...... RIP Freddie

[TheHollyberry1200]

Freddie was so beautiful, who gives a damn if he like men or women? I don't! he was a wonderful talent, and a beautiful person, inside and out. We will see you in Heaven!!!!!!

[Trealawking]

he was 45.... get facts right

[KimNight17]

Freddie <3 R.I.P - Return If Possible <3 :')

[0428733]

He was big boned, to see him so wasted is heart breaking

[PINKNESSAPINK]

@0428733 he was big boned??? freddie was never a big person even at full health

[0428733]

@PINKNESSAPINK He was, he had a strong facial structure big hands, and a wide frame, he was never overweight if that's what you mean.

[PINKNESSAPINK]

@0428733 ah ok i get what ya mean now i thought you ment overweight :) 

[vaoks]

@PINKNESSAPINK FUCK YOU BIG BONED!!!

[szorin13]

@0428733 he was always a thin man throughout his career but yeah seeing freddie emaciated in 1990 is super depressing.

[iLoveQueen18]

This makes me so sad! I love you Freddie RIP <3 Also btw he died at age 45.

[Magnusp001]

Freddie Mercury is the greatest musical legend ever to have walked on this earth.. we will NEVER forget you, Farrokh Bulsara

[MsXxXCatXxX]

Nooooooooooooo why freddie he is hot and a perfect singer

[KAYLEIGH4QUEEN]

That vid brought a tear 2 my eye,brian n roger were so brave 2 speak about freddie must have been really hard 4 them,<3 queen 4ev

[akanawha]

I can proudly say that I was a fan from their early days on. When I would play their music some people would say "well the music is good but they're gay aren't they"? As if that had anything to do with the wonderful talent they had. I would just say they will be one of the most respected bands in rock one day. I was right.

[mahaltony]

the best 

[herculeslv1010]

He was 45, not 46, it always bothered me that they couldn't get their facts straight... He was born in 1946. What other wrong info may be there?

[yedriable]

i m so sorry

que dieu te garde cher friddie là où tu es tu sais qu'on t'aime ici éternellement!!!!!

[blitzman64]

OldGreaser666 your spot on!!

And Kuro2Neko.

An awesome talent,sorely missed.

[OldGreaser666]

His artwork, his music, will stay on for a long, long time. All I can say.

[Kuro2Neko]

Who wants to live forever? I wish he'd live forever...

[blitzman64]

Life was cheap in the 80's.

I'm sure Freddie was saying "USE-THIS-CONDOM!"

But one failure and your done.

God bless Freddie.

God bless Freddie.

[TrebleClefRobert]

@blitzman64 you're.

[Queenrock990]

If I could travel back in time, I would meet Freddie, and say "Freddie, to save humanity, USE-THIS-CONDOM!"

[208stroker1]

Greatest entertainer well hed have to be up there surley....jackson, elvis...and lets face it the Man could Bloody Sing.....R.I.P Freddy to have touched hearts all over the world with ur songs and ur kindness.....The world still misses u , you were taken to young.

[Hellsconsort]

@b0njov1 Keep religion garbage out of here please.

[b0njov1]

if you werent at least on the verge of tears watching this then you have no soul.

[moneyquickeasy]

@b0njov1 I was't on the verge of tears but I watched with great sympathy and sorrow for Freddie. And also respect. Do I not have a soul?

[b0njov1]

@moneyquickeasy lol yes it was just an expression.

[TheTeterevMen13]

he was always shining

[kamwrites]

This piano instrumental of "Who wants to live forever"....must have it.

[teddylul1]

One of the best documentary i've ever seen

[docjommd]

Thank you Freddie.

[espnemail555]

It goes "hero's are remember, legends never die, follow your heart kid and you'll never go wrong" The Babe. Freddie is a hero, Elvis is a freaking legend.

[CRBjeep]

@espnemail555 GTFO with that,Elvis doesn't have shit on Freddie!

[Highlander01]

Kept singing and recording until he could no longer sing anymore. A true legend.

[TheMlonon]

yes he was 45, he was born in 1946



[MrGarnetski]

@TheMlonon he would have been 65 now :/

[chitoelchapin]

he had 45 no 46 years old

[intoarut]

So sad... It made me cry...

[PvMHQ]

alittle over 24 hours he died after he told everyone that he actually did have aids?God was waiting for him to tell the truth saying he had aids.

[MonkeyZorr]

What documentary is this from?

[PINKNESSAPINK]

@MonkeyZorr they were doing a classic rock weekend on TV n thats where i got it from but to recall the name of the actual show i cant remember sorry :)

[MonkeyZorr]

@PINKNESSAPINK

That's ok, thank you for replying and the upload too

[Meaninglessphoto]

@PINKNESSAPINK The show was called Legends. This premiered in 98 I think.

[Daburcor]

@MonkeyZorr "VH-1: Legends" I believe was the name of the show.

[dickshine]

@MonkeyZorr Vh1s legends documentary

[ArchEnemy134]

I was born 4 days before he died ... :(

Just love his music ...

Freddy, you're the best...

[gunkittie]

its every country that spreads the disease, there is always someone who thinks it can't happen them, and there's always someone who can't believe it has. I've watched friends of mine young and old deal with it, and I have also watched some of them die. I've also been lucky enough to see some of them live. Its everywhere and it sucks.

[PINKNESSAPINK]

@gunkittie maybe where your from it is we dont hear of it alot here in australia but that doesnt mean its not around i personally have never known anyone with aids so i guess thats a good thing id hate to see anyone suffer n theres nothing i could do about it :(

[gunkittie]

@PINKNESSAPINK I'm in the States. You are lucky if you don't know anyone. Australia has one of the lowest HIV rates in the world and has one of the most successful disease prevention and public health education programs in the world. That is awesome and nice to know that somewhere out there the people are really listening. Kudos to Australia on that one for real! :)

[PINKNESSAPINK]

@gunkittie there is people who have gone to jail here for willingly having unprotected sex and passing on the HIV virus so yea id say thats disease prevention lol well at least its a start anyways cause to do that is rather vindictive and calculating basically its giving someone a death sentance long and painful i could think of better ways to go thats for sure !! :)

[crazedbirdy9]

@PINKNESSAPINK Ever read the book, April Fools Day by Bryce Courtenay? Its a biography documenting the story of his youngest son, Damon. He was a haemophilliac who contracted the HIV virus through contaminated blood product. It covers what it was like to suffer from this awful illness in the mid to late 80s in Australia. Damon Courtenay died April 1 1991. The same year as Freddie.

[PINKNESSAPINK]

@crazedbirdy9 wow no i have never heard of it i am definelty going to have to grab a copy n read it thanks for that :)

[crazedbirdy9]

@PINKNESSAPINK I'l warn you that is isn't an easy read. There are some really touching moments within the book but a lot of the time, you need the kleenex nearby. I've read books of a similar length to it in a couple of days.. But it took me about two weeks to read this. I find the first couple of chapters take a little time. Then his writing style becomes clearer.

[youngbob59]

He died on my 30th birthday while I was cooking Thanksgiving dinner. I'll never forget that day.

[magentamarmot38]

every time i watch this video, i get choked up. :'(

RIP Freddie <3

[Queenrock990]

Brian said that they would be performing more in 1990 and beyond.... Shame that It only lasated until 1991.....Very sad.

[number1cherfan]

age 45 not 46

[lulzyandoli]

@number1cherfan No, he was 46. He died in November, his birthday is in September. He had turned 46 just prior of his death.

[maxrulez]

@lulzyandoli No, he was 45.

[lulzyandoli]

@maxrulez Hah, looking at this now, I counted the year wrong. That was my fault, lol. I take back that previous comment of mine, thank you. :)

[GlitterMeUp22]

he was 45!!!!! FORTYFIVE

[AllTimeAesthetic]

Fuck the press. All he wanted was privacy.

[flappospammo]

very depressing  :(

[redmustang03]

If Freddie say had the HIV virus say in 1992 then he would probably still be alive. I mean by that time they had the drugs to manage it, he still would have taken many pills everyday to stay alive, but he probably would have been alive with those drugs. I mean if Magic Johnson who got the virus in 1991 is still alive due to the drugs and exercising then. Freddie got in 1987 and back then there wasn't much you could do. Freddie may be gone, but we have Marc Martel the closest singer to him.

[Yo1969Yo]

@redmustang03 It's believed that Freddie received HIV around 1984/1985. His HIV developed into AIDS around 1987. Magic Johnson made his HIV announcement about three weeks before Freddie died. I remember Larry Bird crying and so many other NBA legends feeling so bad because back then it was a death sentence.

There are a lot of "if only" and you can't believe how many times I've said those words.

I like Marc Martel. He is not 100% Freddie in vocals but I'll take what I can get.

[redmustang03]

@Yo1969Yom, when Magic got the HIV the only way to manage it was with 40 pills a day .  You can get AIDS even without the HIV virus like chemo, lupus, an autoimmune disease. AIDS is basically someone with almost no immune system. So the HIV virus destroys the immune system. Surprised that if Freddie did HIV in 84 that he survived 7 years without the drugs to manage it. With Marc Martel he's the closest thing to Freddie unless there is someone else out there.

[Yo1969Yo]

@redmustang03 Correct, AIDS is a process that destroys your immune system. HIV has no symptoms but Freddie felt something was not right. From the reports I've read it seems only two people knew he had HIV, Mary Austin & Queen's manager Jim Beach. When his immune system was hit (AIDS) which was around 1987 Freddie told a few more people.

Freddie did take drugs for HIV/AIDS but back then the drugs did more harm than good. A lot changed in 1991 but it was already too late for Freddie.

[plutao]

freddie nerver dies

[sprintbass]

i was 18 - 19 when he died....i dont know much about aids drugs or thier time line..AZT was out then which boosted the immune system...but i think about people like magic johnson who asmited he had hiv 20 years ago..he is still alive and rather plump...when i was 14 i knew a guy who had aids, it really was hard to deal with and sad because in 87 there was SO much ignorance and hatred over it...he was in college at an arts school i went to..really nice guy..i wont ever forget him.

[pandion1951]

the ultimate showman long may he rest in peace. GOD BLESS YOU FREDDIE

[cana973]

Tu resteras à jamais dans Mon Coeur.

[Hellsconsort]

He was hounded by the press before he died. Shamefull.

[Paul8820]

@Hellsconsort Can you imagine with the internet and all the social media in the digital age, how would Freddie be able to fight all the garbage media today.

[Hellsconsort]

@Paul8820 I liked him but he was a bit of a funny one to be honest, very showman and extravogant but very shy and does not want to be there, also when you see him in interviews so I think media today would have hurt him in his privacy.

But to a degree Freddy because he was so well liked and popular helped with Aids awareness and gay rights when he died and people learnt more about his life etc. So media can be helpful too.

[BoudicaSy]

It's not fear

[TheSilvioguerra]

i love freddie

[Erulin68]

people should still fly the flags at half mast on the day of his passing... sadly missed... I'm glad i got to see you perform live, Freddy...

[JaikEEnhieLLe17]

I hope scientists can find a treat or medicine to AIDS...

[djeskolive]

@JaikEEnhieLLe17 its impossible, they can only find good drugs to increase life but no cure because the virus mutates all the time. :/ If you get AIDS, you die.

[sam6350]

@djeskolive

That's not -quite- true... yes they can never cure it, but the anti-retroviral drugs they have now are damn good. They inhibit the virus's ability to replicate inside your body, and that keeps you alive for a very very long time.

These drugs have actually brought people back from the brink of death. Freddie missed the 'Aids cocktail' by only a handful of years. It's really tragic.

[djeskolive]

@sam6350 True, he missed it and yeah the drugs nowadays can keep you alive for a very long time. But not all people can afford the best drugs thats why people still die. Sometimes i wonder why they dont make these drugs cheaper... anyway, its a pity people still die because of AIDS today.

[dmng825]

@JaikEEnhieLLe17 HIV is controlable nowadays, but AIDS is still a real pain the ass.

[marilynr46]

@JaikEEnhieLLe17 They have. AIDS is easily treated today with a cocktail of pills taken everyday.

[PINKNESSAPINK]

@marilynr46 @JaikEEnhieLLe17 It usually takes 10 years or more for an HIV infection to turn into AIDS. However, anti-HIV medications can radically interfere with HIV’s destruction of the immune system and lengthen a person’s life expectancy. With proper treatment, some people now living with HIV may never develop AIDS and can live a normal life span.

[marilynr46]

@PINKNESSAPINK Yes, I know it can take up to 10 years or more for HIV infection to turn to Aids. I read in a recent biography of the band, that Freddie found out he was HIV positive in 1987. He began engaging in in promiscuous sex with other men, beginning around 1980, according to the book. I know that HIV destroys the immune system by using the T3 (Helper Ts) as the host cell. As the virus reproduces, T3 count drops. Aids drugs target the enzymes the virus needs to reproduce, protease, etc.

[lurifaxable]

@JaikEEnhieLLe17 as long as the big pharmaceutical companies makes billions of dollars on the aids medicine i dont think we'll see a cure.... sad but true :( capitalism at its greatest!

[PINKNESSAPINK]

@lurifaxable its countries like africa that spread the disease they cant feed themselves yet they root like rabbits wheres the sense in that !! so many kids are born with HIV over there its sad to think there life is over before it starts they should provide them with condoms first then food and that way they cant mass produce n have more hungry sick kids not thats sad but true !!!!!!!!!

[mykoolaidtastesfunny]

@JaikEEnhieLLe17 See on youtube.........Nobel Laureate Montagnier: HIV Can Be Cleared Naturally - House of Numbers

Also google.....AZT LABEL

That's what they gave to Freddie. Of course he died.

[freddiepug]

Personnaly, yes of course, we can't see no more Freddie's human appearence, but his voice is, and will always be with us, forever, that is "the Miracle". Hi Freddie ! Are you agree with me ? ;-)

[10b23d93c]

What a GREAT loss the music world lost the day this musical genius was silenced forever. Will forever wonder what was yet to come from Freddie over these past 20 years and beyond. RIP Freddie wherever you may be, but I'm sure you're still creating beautiful music and in some way still inspiring future generations of musicians from the great beyond, but of course, THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!! RIP Freddie and keep on rocking Roger and Brian!

[PinballWizard127]

I miss Freddie so much :'(

[Vatch1966]

Hard to believe it will be 20 years come November!! R.I.P. Freddie.

[gkidrhino13]

Does anybody know if this interview was for a documentary about Freddie if u do cam u tell me which it is ?

[Wilderbeast789]

R.I.P x

[Aec1127able]

Love you forever FM. Rest in Peace.

[Zebonka]

3:33, Freddie shouts "SHOE!!!" and Roger lifts his shoe up. Coincidence?

[kimvlachos]

@Zebonka

You are SUCH an idiot...

Freddie does not shout "SHOE", he shouts "SHOW".

I am sure you think you are funny, but you are simply pathetic and nothing beyond that...

But then of course, you might simply be an unprecedented idiot. That certainly seems plausible.

[Zebonka]

@kimvlachos You ridiculous wog.

[kimvlachos]

@Zebonka

"Wog"? How old are you, 80 or something?

Now I get the full picture: You just cannot understand English, that is why you wrote that Freddie shouts "SHOE".

As I said, simply an unprecedented idiot. It is not plausible, it is a certainty. End of story.

You are the world's greatest idiot.

[Zebonka]

I'm not wrong. You fool!

[kimvlachos]

@Zebonka

I'm not wasting anymore of my time with you. You are simply one whopping extra-terrestrial IDIOT. Go back to your alien planet and let us humans be. Or simply go somewhere on this planet and DIE.

[Zebonka]

Bahah, fuckin' retard. It's great watching you lose your mind. "Alien planet"?? Jesus, you're crazy! I like it.

[BananaSandwich1]

stds are from the devil, why would such a thing exist??

[alembicboy]

I love you freddie. R I P

[TheClassica87]

The "I still love you" ad lib on "These Are the Days of Our Lives" is actually an echo of the "I still love you" that Freddie often did in concert while singing "Love of My Life". I think adding the same phrase on DOOL was a message to all the people Freddie loved - the fans, Mary, Jim, his parents/sister, Brian, Roger, John, etc. It was a parting gift - a message of continuing love that death could not (and still cannot) diminish. A way for Freddie to somehow stay with all of those he loved.

[MsSweetunes]

Freddie Mercury was 45 years old when he died, not 46.

[gijsphilip]

@MsSweetunes He was born in '46

[KindredPoem]

when Freddie said i still love you had a message for someone ... it was too expressive

[MsSweetunes]

@KindredPoem Yes, I agree! I'm sure the song was sung for his fans, but when Freddie says "I still love you", I think it might have been for his lover Jim Hutton or Mary Austin, who he always referred to as the "love of his life". Whoever was on the recieving end of those beautiful words surely knew that they were meant for them. Freddie loved making songs about love and being in love! I'm so glad he didn't die alone. Love you Forever Freddie!
