Brian and Roger - One Week Later, Part 1

Brian May and Roger Taylor appearing on a British morning TV show, one week after the death of Freddie Mercury. I think it's an important interview, with sentiments that need to be heard over and over.

For everyone who thinks the 80s contributed to nothing-think again.

The press who stalked Freddie til' the end should be ashamed of theirselves, they can fuck off. Freddie was the greatest man ever, no one will ever be as good as Freddie..

Oh god they look so awful. I can't image what it was like to lose someone so close. Freddie was a part of their family.Brave of them.They knew they had to do it sooner or later, the British Bastards of the Press being what they are, they would've hounded them day and night and then probably made a load of shit up. I HATE THE PRESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND GOOD GOD MAN...STOP SMILING!!! The greatest rock entertainer and their best friend has just died...show some GOD DAMN RESPECT. MOTHERFU**ER

@neintoten Oh my god. People like you are the reason the world is going to hell. Freddie Mercury did NOT deserve to die from this illness, no one who is infected with it deserves to die (No matter how they contracted it) It isn't a "faggot" disease as ANYONE can get it, in fact more Heterosexual people contract it now than homosexual people. You are evil and vile. You are an ignorant homophobic bas*ard and Freddie Mercury was a more decent human being than you will ever be.

Sadly, all these years later, the press is still as ruthless as they were then. Now with the internet, ordinary folk can spew the vile and ignorance that I so often read here on Youtube. The hateful comments I've so often read about Freddy here make me sick to my stomach. Freddy was one of the most talented musicians off all time. More importantly he was a kind, generous person who did NOT deserve to die a premature and painful death.

God bless Freddy's loyal family, friends, and fans.

You can see that the host of this show is just eating this up.

@shariotoflove Glad to be of service.

[shariotoflove]

@TheGenesisThing that's a good point, cheers for answering the questions.

[TheGenesisThing]

@shariotoflove I think he found out in 1987. No one could have done Live Aid or Wembley with such enthusiasm if they knew they were living under a death sentence

[shariotoflove]

@TheGenesisThing oh ok, thats pretty sad. so do you think he knew about being infected with HIV before 1987 or was it all announced in 1987 as AIDS.

[TheGenesisThing]

@shariotoflove oh yeah he had full AIDS in 1987 so he got infected in say 1984

[shariotoflove]

@TheGenesisThing yea but if you listen to the interview, Brian indicates earlier than that. Did the doctors diagnose AIDS or HIV in 1987?
