A Freddie Mercury appreciation thread

[DinkyDonkeyDooDoo]

Today would have been Freddie's 73rd birthday. I miss you Freddie. I hope you are teaching the angels how to sing properly

Two Three of my personal favourites guaranteed to get me giving it my very best Full On Freddie.

Happy Birthday Freddie! You're a legend

He died on my 22nd birthday, I remember it like it was yesterday.

I’m a music teacher and I’m loving the new generation coming through wanting to play Queen. A true inspiration.

Ahh, is it? I've been warbling "Under Pressure" the last few days.

I'd turned to the "Good Omens" trailer as a cheery change of subject from the Brexit omnishambles... only to realise it wasn't such a change of subject after all...

Anyway. Herewith.

And the "Good Omens" version:

❤ I love Queen. DS's school choir did a Queen concert last year and he didn't have to learn any of the words, having grown up on a diet of Freddie and Queen. I might have been the only parent in the audience wearing a v old Queen t-shirt

What a legend.
The first single I ever bought was Bohemian Rhapsody from he Woolworths on Camden high Street when I was 9. It was for my sister’s Christmas present.

Happy birthday Freddie, can’t help thinking we could have been friends in another paradigm.

Freddie is all I can remember being played at home when I was a child, my mum adored him!!

Great Pretender was her favourite and I have fond memories of her singing it in the kitchen after slightly too much wine

I also remember her being heartbroken when he died.

Needless to say when my mum passed away she got a send off to a Freddie soundtrack.

It's the only music that makes me happy and sad at the same time, but in a good way IYSWIM!
