Y’all should make a top ten Queen moments list
@Jeremy Brookes John Lennon's life wasn't heart-breaking. Neither was Elton John's. John Lennon got those bullets because his music makes people lose their minds. He is singing about love and world peace while hitting his wife. Elton John turned his back for everyone who supported him. He is also constantly hating Christianity and telling lies how Jesus was gay. No videos about those assholes, thank you!
@@anniesanta4328 ?
😭😭😭😭 I almost cried. To think almost 29 years ago he passed away. BTW can I just acknowledge how crazy it is that Rami Malek looks so much like him in the clips I've seen. Yeah their music will never die. My sis has been a major fan of Bohemian Rhapsody and I kinda joined that train too. At first I found it silly the way my sister sang it but now I see it's importance. Also for a long time until a few years ago I didn't know that song in Ella Enchanted was a Queen song.
Fabio Gritti I meant to say a top ten moments
*Freddie's the only guy I've ever heard say "I'm not gonna be a rockstar, I'm gonna be a legend." and actually doing it.*
Y're absot right!
damn u are righhht.
You said that in we are the champions
He's the only guy who says "I'm gonna be a legend" and makes it an understatement.
What about laser beam
"There is one Freddie, it's impossible to replace him"
-John Deacon
Bassist of Queen
Freddie really made it. He is a legend and very much alive for all of his fans. And yes, he’s irreplaceable! ❤️ 👑
Exactly cause legends never get replaced theres only one version of fred just like theirs no tupac and just like theirs no jim Hendrix.
You mean Adam Lambert? Deacon never said that Adam did.
This is so true. He was MAGICAL.
Anonymous I think mostly everybody else said it to because Adam Lambert sucks
This man died 28 years ago and he's still the greatest singer of all time....
Elvis is better
Elvis is the most famous singer ever for a reason
Stevie Wonder
@@ryanm8512 Elvis is for sure one of the greatest and super talented but he aint got shit on those Freddie vocals my friend. Science doesnt lie
Serj Tankian is the best
Freddie was one of the best singers to ever live
that pfp
He's aiite
I'm sorry but what is that profile pic?
The best!
@@benbaer4697 Michael Jackson
Idc for his sexuality. I love how he puts his heart and soul into his music and I respect him for that. Glad my mom introduced me to Queen.
your mom is a Champion
Indeed, Freddie's Sexuality doesn't, and shouldn't, define him. He's remembered for his striking impact on the music world! 🎶😁🌎
And thanks radio for me haha
💗
Tell that to the millions of people who only see him as a gay icon (he was actually bisexual) and not for the talented, charismatic, caring, funny, witty, (sexy), and strong willed man he was. On several occasions he had said he only really wanted to be remembered for his music and that played a big part in why he didnt publicly reveal his AIDS diagnosis until 24hrs before his death. But now it seems like his wish was ignored because, especially after the movie Bohemian Rhapsody, when millions of people think of Freddie their first thought is that he is (incorrectly) gay. Such a disrespect to such a legend. RIP Mr. Farenheit👑
Freddie is the greatest showman. sorry hugh jackman.
Lol 😂
Got em
I love Hugh Jackman, fantastic actor, singer and all-rounded gentleman
@@freddiemercury2075 oh look xD
Nah
Would’ve loved to go to a Queen concert
Same here, it'd been something else to see a Queen concert when Freddie was still with us
I was lucky. 16 July 1986 Maine rd Manchester. It's a kind of Magic tour. My brother had to drag me, I was 15, best day ever.. So glad i went.. God Bless..
My people skills are rusty my son who is 9 tells me that all the time. The kid is such a huge Queen fan, as am I.
Me, too. Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor, and John Deacon are still as legendary today, as they were in the 1970s. Even though, we have loved, and lost Freddie Mercury, and John Deacon has since retired.
Especially live AID
He was one of a kind. One of the greatest musicians that ever lived
He was! He had it all: a phenomenal voice, musical talent, charisma, intelligence, elegance, sense of humor and so much more...
Hello dear
@@catherinevaz6139 hi
I honestly believe he is the best singer to ever walk the earth
@@Wirralspotter Same
I can confidently say, he would looooaaaatthe to hear you've said he had a heartbreaking life. Whether it was or wasn't, he REFUUUSED to be a victim ever, especially after being diagnosed.
I came to the comments to say exactly that. This man conquered the world, nothing “heartbreaking” about that.
His story is inspiring. He did what he loved up until the very end. He played his music and sang until he was no longer able to. I admire that.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with using the term. To those who loved Freddie- both personally and through the music of Queen- it *was* heartbreaking.
💚😢😢💚
Agreed. Freddie sought to live life to the fullest. His death is heartbreaking to me...not his life.

When you say concur, it’s like saying “agree.”
''I won't be a RockStar. I will be a legend.''

Why should Freddie, anyone indeed, give any kind of answer to the press about their sexuality?
No need to hide it. Not coming out is a personal failure.
@@mr.x8259 if you were alive and experienced life in the 70s and 80s, you wouldn't have made that remark. No way.
Mr. X You judge too harshly, probably because you weren’t around in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s.
Mr. X it was a very homophobic time.
@@mr.x8259 it wasn't just a different time... but like a whole different plant. in the 80's people where terrified they would get AIDS from sitting on a toilet seat. If you said you were gay, you were likely to get fired from many jobs. My friend was a restaurant manger, and was told NOT to hire anyone, even suspect of being possibility gay. Mercury was a million times more ballsy, than many people today could ever fathom.
Rami Malek played the hell outta the Freddie Mercury biopic role. Glad he won an Oscar for playing Freddie in the biopic Bohemian Rhapsody.
He was pretty much born to portray Freddie.
After watching at the movies, I came home and told my wife,that was the first time I have ever teared up in a movie theater in my life.
shit movie tbh
@@Lmclean89 no way
Honestly he looked like a younger puny brother of Freddie, like a kid version of him.
I bet a outgoing, flamboyant (in real life not just stage and also shy as people say) and energetic person like Freddie would hate for playing him but appreciate his efforts...
The only "heartbreaking" thing about Freddie Mercury was that he couldn't love himself as much as everyone else did.
Well, not many people can. Only Ron Jeremy and John Holmes are known to be capable of such a thing.
@@travis5125 yea true
Very true. When are unable to love yourself how can you truly love someone else?
@Benjamin Chen I think that he mentions the fact that he may not be straight. In that era people were a lot homophobic, so y'know...
Nice pfp
The song “The show must go on” is one of the most inspiring songs they have created, it literally puts that message in your mind every time something goes wrong and this encourages you to carry on
every time I hear about "The show must go on" i think of the ICP version, lol

Makes me cry when he expressed that he was lonely and no one would love him.
Thankfully his last relationship with Jim Hutton was loving. Although they could not legally marry, they wore rings and Freddie's close friends state that he called Jim his husband.
I know how he felt
Life is complicated, confusing. For me, over-analyzing life makes it too complicated to make sense, to keep things simple, to see things the way they are, not as we fabricate them.
@@tennisbum3686 what do you mean and how does that relate to this comment?
His life was not heart breaking. He died early at 45 , but Freddie was full of fun and games, he always had a twinkle in his eye. He himself said many times "he had a good life and had really done it all" "I have no regrets" He had his lonely moments but who doesn't.
the song Was it All Worth It says it all
@@JUICECAT187 yes it does.
I don’t
@@therealmohammad Good for you.
He had alot of lonely moments. So do I.
It was honestly touching that Mary Austen stayed close to Freddie for the entirety of his life after they met. She even helped cared for him when he was dying from HIV.
Hello dear how are you doing
You don't die from HIV. You die from AIDS.
Poor guy. Feeling alone you're whole life with so much that he's given. Rip big guy
He's ungrateful

Freddie is a queen??😳😳
@@sainandhana8828 the band is called queen so...
Every interview with Freddie always makes me laugh, man knew how to ease the tension, and make everyone have a good time
Seemed like a kind individual , sensitive towards others. That's where the true happiness comes, Willing to step outside yourself.
"Nobody wants to share their life with me."
I'll share my life and love you until I drop. I love him so much....

My teeth are the same as Freddie’s and it just makes me happy that there’s someone else who’s famous like that
Can you sing? I believe that because of that, his ability to hit those low bases and high tenor was certainly an asset to his fame.
Ewww get braces

His speaking voice was so different from his singing voice, his accent was so thick.
I left india years ago and many of my friends still say that i have an indian accent
He had an English accent. I’ve never heard a thick accent.
@@Nina5144 I'm American, my opinion is that it's thick, it's just my personal opinion, I was pointing out how different his speaking voice is compared to his singing voice, that's all
Hello dear
@@Nina5144 I definitely hear some form of Indian accent in him. Also, his British accent sounds like he learned how to speak in a British accent. They might have taught him that at his school or he learned it on his own to fit in better. You can hear it in their songs too. Listen to words that start with “V”. He sings it more as a “w”. So “very” becomes “weary”. Spread Your Wings is a good example. “Won’t get weary (very) far.
the title shouldnt be like that, yes he died too young but freddie live his life to the fullest with his friends, family and loved ones
Hello dear how are you doing
@@stanleydaniel3551 ...

Poor Freddie, he was certainly a champion of the world ahead of his time. It's amazing how much of his life was omitted from "Bohemion Rhapsody", but then again, you can't cover EVERYTHING in a biopic! 😊🎸🎵
The kids that bullied Freddie must feel stupid right now
@@kaproskarleto5136
I don't keep grudges, I wish them well
Surely you mean "You *can't* cover everything in a biopic," yes?
It WASN'T a 'biopic'!
@@DMSProduktions That's what they ALL say
Freddie is a legend and a god of music. No singer will ever have his talent. We all love you Freddie.
Actually Micheal Jackson was
Michael could dance but Freddie had vocal skills no singer ever will have.
Toxic Samarai please dont compare michael to freddie... they are such different musicians, i love freddie more but that doesn’t mean to say i compare them, especially when this video is about freddie

Freddie is the perfect example of still feeling depressed even though you have many great things. And it’s heart breaking that he felt that way about himself. Freddie Mercury is the greatest rock star that ever lived and he inspires me and many others all over the world.
Hello dear how are you doing
@@stanleydaniel3551 hm? I’m doing okay
Nice so tell me where are you from and where do you live
@@stanleydaniel3551 wtf
Oh' I'm from Romania but I work here in North Amsterdam as a civil engineer
*He was and he is a true legend! I miss him so much*
Best singer in the world: Freddie Mercury. Singing isn't just about the notes that you can hit; it's about the way you use your ability.
This man has inspired me in many ways. He is one of the few people in the music industry who showed so much passion in everything that he does. He is a musical genius and it's really amazing how he incorporated stories through his stanzas. He also was (for me) the greatest vocalist having that tenor voice (and he also sang so good in baritone) and the way he radiated this incredible aura and energy on stage, no one compares.
I just don't like how sometimes he is being portrayed as a lonely man, if you've read books about him and watched documentaries and people talked about him he was showered with love by so many people. He has lived his life to the fullest and literally enjoyed everything that the life has to offer. He was surrounded by loyal friends even until his last breath. His relationship with Mary Austin alone is something only few lucky people can have. Him entrusting her with his ashes only goes to show how much he trusted her.
I am, and forever will be a fan of Freddie Mercury.
There's an old saying,
You can be lonely in a crowded room.
I have been a long time Queen fan. I grew up listening to their music.
Freddie Mercury was a true legend
Live-Aid Queen concert is one of the greatest rock n roll preformances of all time.
Now that is something everybody can agree on.
It’s heartbreaking that most of us will never get to see him live.
Without question if there is one performer I could bring back it would be him.
someone pass me a tissue please, I can't take this anymore :'(
Freddie Mercury was A LOVELY MAN! May his soul Rest In Peace.
I love Queen! Freddie Mercury was an amazing singer and he left such a lasting impression. RIP to a true legend!
Freddie Mercury was truly a CHAMPION!
That's why even to this very moment, winning teams worldwide still use his classic track as a victory song.
“I'm just a musical prostitute, my dear” - Freddie Mercury
Freddie had a naughty sense of humor 😉
Gotta love the one liner's Freddie came out with..Very quick witted man..❤
That was funny
Whts the song playing in the background at 8:15
Honestly, Freddie was the First Indian to be a Rock Star as well as a legend....there are many controversies that either Freddie is Indian or a Parse-Indian...well, if according to Freddie's parents, they were born in Gujarat,India, which makes Freddie an Indian. Thousands of year ago Parsees fled to India. Looking at this POV He's a Parse-Indian...No matter where he born or what his nationality is....I am proud that I was born in the same country where his parents were born and his childhood flourished.. Love you Freddie
Yep
@Arindam Kar that's true. He was an Indian Guy who became a legend. But the Indian Media's don't know Freddie . No coverage, no discussions.....I totally agree with you . They don't even know the songs....leave the songs...they don't even know Freddie, so how the hell will they know about their songs.
I am glad I studied in the same school as him in Panchgani
@@arldsouza8463 Congrats darling ♥️
How are you doing
Freddie Mercury has the voice of an angel 😇
I miss Freddie Mercury
Worked his behind off all the time just to give everyone a good show
The world lost a great friend when Freddie died
I understand that pain I wanted to be in the perfect relationship most people can dream about 😭
My mom loved there concerts and she got me into them at a young age
Nice, your mother has excellent taste in music! 🎶💕🎼

That's what I'm going to do with my kid/s
I wish I was born on his days. I'm dying to see him in person and watch his performance in every concert 💋💞 Freddie is such an amazing person and the great front man. He really is a legend. Love you Freddie 💕
Freddie Mercury is really one of a kind.
I think what made Queen stand out over any other band was the fact Freddie played piano soo well and could sing. They all were very talented, and still singing. I would love to have an autograph sooooooo Bad. But I want John's too. YEAH QUEEN.
Freddie’s voice was so good it wasn’t human
Freddie's birthday tomorrow and I just hope he'll be celebrating up there with his loved ones🖤 we still love you Freddie✨
I’m glad That Freddie’s in a happier place now with his mother. R. I. P Freddie.
"no one wants to share their lives with me" so much pain 😭
Funny how the most iconic ppl in the world are the ones the media view as “weird, confusing, off, or/and strange.” 🤔🤔🤔
ikr!! another media target was MJ.
Different, unique that my friends is the x factor that's why the iconic people are legends.
yup Michael jackson
Micheal Jackson is most famous,media always want money
It would’ve been so cool to seen Queen in concert.
Freddie was the best and had the most powerful voice in the world, it does not matter what sexuality you are he was the king

@@jennydunn340 and why he would support them? I am sure even Freddie would not never go on gay parade
@@Bibiana862 no one said anything about parades ... i was just asking why they didn’t support lgbtq people
Freddie, we thank you for your iconic songs that we know and love today. Thank you and Queen
"In My Defence" captures all this perfectly.
I can only say that life is fragile. You will always be my favourite singer. Love u 'Sir' Freddie Mercury. 💛🖤
Freddie lived his made to measure life and will always be 💯👍 remembered and loved. 🎶🎬💜
RIP Freddie. We will miss you forever. 🐱
It’s quite amazing, really. This Rock God who has been gone since 1991 is still influential, even during these dark times. A very modest man, who was larger than life and still regarded by so many people as the greatest of all time.
Not to mention all the content, talk shows, movies, documentary, etc. where he's been talked about, Freddie's story is never and will never be less heartbreaking. People just can't stop taking about him. He will remain a legend in human history.
Rest In Peace Freddie..we will never forget you! ❤️💕❤️💕
Even after you die?
I got to know Freddie when i was 16 years old,last year.It's really wired to miss someone whom you haven't known when he was alive.
May the king of Queen live on forever with his legendary four octave vocal range and his masterful lyricism.

Poor Freddie, he's at peace now thank God. RIP sir.
Freddie was an amazing musician who we lost too soon. Such a gift our world was granted. Seeing the group perform last summer was special (even without Freddie’s physical presence) as you could hear all the love Brian had when he would speak to the audience & we even had projections of Freddie which made us all tear up
Freddie..we'll remember you forever
Your name won't never forgot
Such a nice human being he was. So adorable and kind, I wish to get a lover like you freddie, it would be pleasure for me and a blessing.
