Freddie Mercury: Living On My Own (With Lyrics)

"Living on My Own" is a song by Freddie Mercury, from the album Mr. Bad Guy.

It was released as a single (back with "My Love Is Dangerous") in September 1985 in the UK where it peaked at no.50. The July 1985 release in the United States had "She Blows Hot & Cold" as its B-side.

In 1993, almost two years after Mercury's death, a remix of the song was released and reached no.1 in the UK, becoming Mercury's only solo number one hit. It remained at the top for 2 weeks and was in the charts for a total of 13 weeks.

The video for "Living on My Own" featured footage of Mercury's 39th birthday party in 1985 in Ottolandia.

On her 2000 Bohemian Summer tour, Hikaru Utada, a number-one selling J-Pop artist, did a cover of the song. She has quoted Mercury as one of her inspirations. She also alludes to "Living on My Own" in her song "This One (Crying Like A Child)" from her album This Is the One.
