Freddie Mercury - The Untold Story - Part 05 (05/12)

This 2 hour special is absolutely excellent! It was created by the same people that made the 'Magic Years' series and the 'Champions of the World' video. There are interviews with his mom, sister, aunt, cousin, Brian May, Roger Taylor, Peter Freestone (his personal assistant), Mary Austin (love of his life and life long best friend), Jim Hutton (his last live in lover), a member of his 1st band The Hectics, several of his close friends.
Have the tissues ready, as you're almost guaranteed to shed a tear at the end of it!

he wasnt gay, he was bisexual actually

Isn't great that Tim isn't bitter but a true music lover.  Other artists who leave a band early and then the band goes on to become huge are often bitter and twisted.

Unwavering belief - you NEED that.

[Gooner7001]

So we have to thank Freddie's mother for giving birth to 'Farook' and thank Tim Staffell for self confessed "stepping a side" and giving us Queen -Wow!

"I didn't have it in me to do what Freddie did." "I was never a showman... I really wasn't the writer that Freddie was." Tim Staffel seems like a very humble and cool guy who knows and admits that he couldn't have done what Freddie did. He knows Queen/Smile would never have achieved what they did had he remained in the band. I dunno why some are bashing him, he seems very humble and honest about things. And I would also thank him for moving aside and giving Freddie his chance to shine. :)
