    it is really a pleasure to hear the 3 of them talk together about our beloved Freddie. they are really relaxed and it almost feels like we are all at garden lodge around a glass of champagne talking ! Mike Moran is such a nice guy, he's brilliant artistically, he's funny and seems to be very kind. Peter Straker is what he's, he can annoy a lot of people because he talks loud he's always laughing and tries to answer all the questions but in the end despite what happened at the end of Freddie's life in their friendship, I think they really loved each other. and then you have Phoebe, everything has already been said about him, he was maybe the most loyal friend Freddie never had. So I hope that these 3 amazing guys will meet again on a stage and do the same thing soon!!!!

    What an Extraordinary group of friends of Freddie remembering & enjoying their times with him giving us insights to him in a personal level. I must say I absolutely loved this session & also so regretted that on Freddie’s memorial concert the band did not ask P. Straker to perform but brought people who were Not close friend on stage🙄😡Frankly it was just treated as another concert for the band I always thought. Some of those people couldn’t care about him they just did it for publicity for sure🙄others much closer to him & friends of him would have done it from their ❤️ 🙄🙄😡😡👎That has Always been my critic for that so called send off of Freddie by his 3 band members😡🙄Thank you for uploading this Absolutely delightful gathering of friends talking about Marvellous Freddie!👏👏👍👍

    I nearly stop breathing listening to it. Had never heard anybody sings like that. It brings tears to my eyes. I love it so much.
    "While Floating High Above" from Phantom of the Opera was another masterpiece.
    No wonder Freddie admitted Peter's work and they were such good friends.

    @mercuryrising4323 4 года назад +4

    Lesley Anne Jones wrote a Biography on Freddie Mercury in which she explained Straker's relationship with Freddie in which she explains why they fell out and I suppose why he was not invited to his funeral and his Tribute Concert. Fred was always bailing Straker out financially and once he needed some money to renovate his bathroom, Fred apparently gave him the money but he dissapated it (probably on champagne as someone else was paying as in this interview). Fred felt let down or taken for granted or manipulated so they stopped speaking. Straker was not a true friend to Fred as Fred was with him. When Fred passed Straker made dispargaing and belittling comments about Fred's ethnicity/ heritage and scoffed that Fred pretended to be Persian when infact he was just Indian. He says this with such pleasure, revealing Fred's achilles heal I suppose. Not the actions of a true friend but a a self serving jealous sycophantic Frenenemy. Straker was a user and he used Fred like a Remora fish. Fred only came to that realisation far too late. A Salieri to Mozart. What a bastard thing to do. Sad it took Fred so long to recognise Straker's real colours.

      while I love Peter Straker and his humour I think that part of what you said is sadly true...but please be careful, Leslie Ann Jone's book is NOT reliable at all, she pretends to have met Freddie and all but she doesn't know him and it has been proven thousands of times that her book his full of bullshit. instead you should read books from ppl who really knew Freddie such as Jim, phoebe, Peter hince, etc...

    Straker likes to talk about & promote himself a lot. Hard to believe anyone can be in the theater like he is & not know what "acapella" means? I'm not musical in any way--or theatrical & I've known what it means since childhood. Plus that annoying cackling laugh.....Plus you can't hear what most of the questions are. However I love Freestone, he was a fantastic addition to the Mercury household-- & hearing any bits about Freddy.

His remarks are consistantly over the years, unlike changing remarks from other so called close coworkers of Freddie.

    Queen is one of the best bands of all time in my opinion and in many people’s opinion.. screw the critics! The critics don’t pay the bills!! The fans are the ones that love & pay for the artists; & their work, regardless of the particular style of music, literature, or art they do. Everybody has their own distinct tastes. For example, I prefer Rock and pop rock; however, if someone comes out with a terrible pop rock song and Carrie underwood comes out with an incredible country song, i’m going to get Carrie underwood even though I don’t really like country music.
    Hot space was Queen’s worst album allegedly, but I actually like about four songs or so off of that album. I think if a person likes at least four or five of the songs they should definitely get the album because the 45s used to be $2.00 back in the 1970s and early 1980s and the albums back then we’re about eight to $10.

      According to Phoebe Peter Straker was a bit of a taker. He borrowed a large sum of money from Freddie to remodel his kitchen and never paid it back. He says he mentioned to Freddie that Straker's friendship was one sided and he felt he took advantage and Freddie admonished him that he was aware but he would cut ties when HE decided to.

    Mercury Rising, lo que tú cuentas lo leí en el libro Mercury and Me, de mi querido Jim Hutton, que tan criticado parece ser que fue en su día, Kim comenta que Freddie y Peter eran buenos amigos, pero este último traicionó, o así lo tomo Freddie, según cuenta Jim, parece ser que quedaron en un restaurante para comer, en la que Freddie ya enfermó, trataba de no llamar la atención, y Straker apareció tarde y bastante “ pasado “, por le Freddie se sintió muy dolido, y se marchó dejando de relacionarse con él , también he oído que Freddie le produjo algún proyecto, que no debió terminar bien, por lo tanto a Mike Moran, mis respetos, es un magnífico músico, pero los otros dos peter, sinceramente no se cuando van a dejar de vivir del cuento, quiero decir, vivir a costa de mi queridísimo Freddie. Nos podían hablar de la …Meri y porque se llevó todo la pasta, realmente la quiso, o fue un acuerdo económico a cambio de aparecer públicamente cuando Freddie lo necesitaba ?? , o porque el otro Peter no nos habla de si es verdad que tanto se querían Freddie y Jim, yo creo que si, pero ?? Phoeebe en una ocasión dijo que Freddie le quería a su manera ?? Saludos, siempre Freddie ❤️❤️

    I could never warm to Peter Freestone. I've always found him a bit of a poser, a hanger-on, insincere. Loooove Peter Strakers laugh! (and singing voice!!)

      You have to remember that Peter was never a star, performer or actor. In the beginning he was just an employee who grew into one of Freddie's closest friends. He doesn't dine out on his position, but he has the knowledge to give an insiders view. He does that whilst also showing the utmost respect for Fred.

      Peter Freestone (Phoebe) and Freddie also shared a special bond/connection because of their childhood and youth spent in boarding schools in India away from their respective families. It forged something between them. Also, just because somebody isn't a famous talent doesn't mean they are "hangers-on". Sometimes, those are the people Freddie needed the most in his life - witness Mary Austin, Jim Hutton, Phoebe, and Joe Fanelli -- all four "normal people" who cared for Freddie right up till his very last moments.

      Why do you say that? Peter Freestone, (Phoebe,) was one of Freddie's closest and most loyal friends, even through Freddie's dying process. He is one of the few people Freddie left anything ($) to in his will. I don't find Peter Straker appealing at all in this interview. Mike More on the other hand, seems like a wonderful friend. There's a nice interview with him alone, speaking about Freddie. ruclips.net/video/RBmMAj1E2jk/видео.html

      @@sherrys7854 Agree. Peter tried to make everything about himself. Very unappealing. I'm sad to say but I sort of now understand possibly why Freddie cut him off towards the end. Seems very self interested.

    Brian May says Freddie was a Very Good piano player, yet stopped playing after being with Mike Moran because Freddie compared himself to Mike & found himself disatisfied with his own piano playing.

      Freddie was a good pianist but not on the level of Mike Moran, not close.

    I don't like Straker. He's too self involved. I want to hear more about Freddie, not Straker as an "actor". Never even heard of him.

    My goodness Peter Freestone has put on some weight. I thought he was pregnant when he walked out!
