I love when he calls people darling and dear
Oh hell yes! I don't know why I love it so much but those parts are my favorite.
and sweetheart
Love him!!
You know me too
Oh, if he only could’ve called ME honey, darling, or dear!!! I could die happy!!!😍☺️😛😁
From the little I see, I find a nice and funny person, although people said he was shy, I think just to protect himself.
It's crazy how much I miss a man who died nearly a decade before I was born
Blue Rain smh I know right!
saaame
Blue Rain i feel the same way 😢😢
No.
SAME
“So ask me about my solo album”
“What about your solo album”
“Oh it’s great!”
Oh god I love you freddie😂
catie And it IS great, no matter what some critics say!
Freddie I love you Forever
Maybe the original version of Robert Downey.
Good example of how not being nice at first is not the end of the world
I NEED TIMING
Man he is totaly the opposite of selfish.He said the four of us individually are strong,that's what keeps the band alive!
Yeah beacause he allways held his head cool and down to earth... But he knew He was the Queen
It's funny because talking to the rest of the guys, they all understood what they were. Queen was all of them. He was so real, honest, and appreciative.
@@smileysatanson3404 I don't think Queen is possible without Brian's guitar sounds or Freddie's unique voice.
@@krypto_9872 or deaky's basslines and roger's drumming
не капли эгоизма и высокомерия в нем не было!
Freddie 5:20 "When the fans quit buying our records, I'll quit and become a strip artist.."
*Well, unfortunately, the fans will never quit buying Queen albums*
About 36 years after this interview,the fans are still going strong and buying Queen vinyls and CDs.
Props to the interviewer “and what songs would you strip to?” Quick wit.
very very sadly 😂
*i mean him not becoming a stripper not people buying queen records
Becomes an ash strip dancer lol
Never
I LOVE his "who cares" attitude. It's a whole ass mood.
12:59 I'm just a musical prostitute, my dear ❤
Tasmary Shawlin oh thanks!😂
Thankyou lmfao
Me too
oh, thank you my dear ^^
Tasmary Shawlin did you say my name?😂
I love listening to his voice.... so calming and relaxing......
Azalea 1975 Freddie Mercury ASMR
Agreed
Yes, it's beautiful
freddie: hello darling welcome freddie asmr 😂😂
OH GOD HE WAS A BEAUTIFUL MAN !! I'm in love with eyes his voice his face his everything.. He's just so captivating 😍
Maribella Rami his nostrils are very uneven though...
Richie Toaster who gives a shit about fucking nostrils ?
iloveu freddie mercury
I'm in love too
Richie Toaster You’re an idiot!
I miss his wit, his charisma and charm... There will NEVER be another like him.
Rest in paradise, Melina 😘
The real Queen fans know what I mean!
I know. True fan of QUEEN till the ends of time ! Janique from France
Can you please tell me what it means? I'm a new fan
Im also curious
Venus Yay it was Elton Johns nickname for Freddie. Elton called Freddie “Melina” and Freddie called Elton “Sharon”
Cameron Melina Mercouri - a Greek actress
Freddie had such magnificent brown eyes.❤️👀
His eyes are glowing....
Jennyfer Free cocaine
Jennyfer Free More like coking, not “glowing”..😉 This is coming from someone, who was once refered to as, Michelle phifer (Scarface).😜🕺
@@joepetch308 no u
Michael oh Michael here you are again 😀 no one tells boys and girls they should “go suck cock” as YOU put it. But I’m sure you have no problem with it when a girl becomes a woman and does it, right? Get off your high horse and realize that people are going to do what they’re going to do and you have NO right to judge them and you know it. Try using your religion for love and you’ll get much farther.
LMAO they are glazed over aka "glowing" bc he's high as hell.
What an intelligent, spunky, funny, real person!
Breaks my heart when I see him covering his teeth🥺 His smile was so beautiful!
Yes....I agree....I love his smile❤️ BB.
Nika ! mee too
He's totally mesmerising. So theatrical and witty.
At 9:58 look his face when that clap near to him. He is like “if you do it again I will send you to the Mars” 😂
Lmao they clap in the beginning too and he looks pissed 😍
I agree !! For just a moment he looks so pissed.
Lmao...after the first slap, he looked liked he wanted to slap the shit out of him!!🤣🤣😂😂😂
Spoiler Alert to Mercury
Why they do it?😅
His giggles I can't, I just- he's so genuine and purely himself
A very Good sense of humour
And no BS political correctness, either 👍
He drank beer, smoked cigarettes and sang like a GOD. No, he really doesnt look like he is 37 :-)
with the amount of money he made at that time, of course he doesnt look that old.
If your god had a voice ...more like angels perhaps.
He also had sex with men. Maybe this was his secret to look good?
Hugh Janus That is why I have sex with men. Helps me keep my youth ;-)
Lenka Stehlíková LOL
What a funny self effacing man. He’s so genuine. How many “stars” today can laugh at themselves and not take themselves seriously. The fact he’s got no one there telling the interviewer what questions they can and can’t ask speaks volumes. Total respect.
Michael are you going to comment on everything?
@@Michael-eo5nf Fuck you
Michael jealous
"that's an asshole question to ask anybody" iconic
More people these days could learn from him.
He is just freakin adorable, and exotically beautiful. RIP DARLING!
People have this inaccurate preconception about Queen that Freddie was a diva and the other boys were shy, boring people who meant nothing to him but it's not like that. Freddie needed them as much as they needed him. They were 4 individuals and 1 family of equals.
that stupid movie just was so wrong.,
Nina I had higher expectations for it, but oh well.
jessica all four of them were geniuses and even their individual work was not as good as the work that Queen did together as a quartet. Freddie did Mr. bad guy and did the Barcelona work with the soprano, & yeah that’s better than the other three that did individual work but it still was absolutely nowhere near as good as QUEEN With all four bandmembers together. The harmonies and musicians ship!! Freddie and Roger is a voice along with Brian’s and that darn guitar!! Ahhh.. Deacy spin on the bass jamming away. I have never seen a bass player do the Deacy. Spin. Roger Taylor on the drums and singing his heart out alongside Freddie. They were magic and I think it was interesting that their last tour together as a band and quartet together was “ The magic tour”.. kind of sad to think about but it’s really the truth because those four guys were pure gold and magic together. People can say ugly things all by one but everybody’s not gonna like you because so many people are envious. People choose to hate what they don’t understand. I miss seeing him and John Deacon so much. I love to watch the videos where Freddy is singing and prancing around, & John Deacon was wearing shorts and playing the bass. All of a sudden he was playing his bass and he did a one leg spin. WTH?? Did that all the time and I’ve never ever seen other guitar player Do that before or even since. I don’t know if anyone is aware of what I’m speaking about but John Deacon had this ultimate one leg spin , and it was awesome!!! He would play the bass wearing shorts and spin on one leg and continue on playing the bass. freaking amazing❤️❤️ i’m glad that Roger and Brian are having fun out playing gigs and touring. Even Freddie said in 1989 but the other three would love to tour after they released “ The Miracle” but it was him that didn’t want to tour. Of Course he couldn’t because he was very sick. I was watching some silly psychic say that the bandmates didn’t know he had aids until weeks before his death and that’s horse crap! Mary was the first want to know because she took the call from the doctor that Freddie wouldn’t answer. The household knew & I am pretty darn sure the bandmates knew within a year and a half and by the time they were discussing doing the miracle album. There was no way he could tour in his condition and under such treatment.
It's so obvious from his words that he admired the other three as musicians and men, he knew Roger, Brian and John were extremely smart and well educated and he felt constantly challenged in a positive way. Freddie hated to be bored, but with them he couldn't relax that much. He felt a kind of good competition and he encouraged it in first place.
@Betsy Mills I have no objection to cutting things and keeping it PG, but to paint Freddie as this whiny depressed selfish diva who broke up the band was just wrong.
I love that first you see the hard side of Freddie, but then you hear him talking and his soft side and cuteness come out ❤
Love his dimples
With Freddie there is No hard side.. that is just an act and role He played
Damn, he’s HONEST.
Love him! Freddie just lays it out there.
Political correctness didn't exist then
I’m so lucky. I was two when he passed away. I lived on this planet when Freddy did for two years. As I look at my framed autograph of his, I realize how truly special he was. How much I miss him. Queen will always be my favorite, but having shared this world with him is just…. Incredible to think about.
There will NEVER be another Freddie Mercury‼️RIP FREDDIE MERCURY🙏💔🫅🙏💔🫅
Isn’t it amazing to think in retrospect that this interviewer had Freddie mercury there in front of him.. before he is lost to the ages.. and he asks him about Michael Jackson and about if he likes being interviewed or likes touring. How asinine when looking back. We should appreciate the artists while we have them - rather than gossip or tear down or belittle.. just a thought while I watch this wasted opportunity..
He was so handsome
In a weird way but yes he was
I did not realize how bright, sharp, and loving Freddie was! Listening to his interviews, he was a very decent person who was taken way too early by an awful disease.
What a beautiful, sweet, charming man! If I were to fall for a guy, I'd hope it would be someone like Freddie! Gay, straight, bi....how could you not fall in love with him?
I'm a lesbian.
SteevDragon67 thats what im saying.
IKRRrrr
SteevDragon67 I did from afar I still am I will see him someday
Im in love how many years later lol so sad he passed away
Freddies so cute I love him
Gorgeous eyes, beautiful dimples, wonderful voice, outstanding performer. Man was unreal.
gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous.
Iconic moustache?
What a gentle, soothing voice. Love hearing him talk, and just looking into that handsome face - everything about that face, his complexion, full lips, intense beautiful brown eyes, that nose and love those white definitive teeth. The whole package.
@jen thompson Yes, it must have been tough to lose him that way. Who knows what would have been for them if things were different.. I wonder if Mary ever found real love again, or if Freddie was her one true love. We'll probably never know.
@jen thompson I read somewhere that she did want a child, but he did not. I guess with him being gay in the '70s, he felt it was not feasible. Maybe that is why he loved his cats - who knows.
@@barbararene4200 When Mary mentioned children to him (she was worried about her clock - mid- thirties) he told her he couldn't and joked he'd rather get another cat. By then...he was pretty sure that he had been exposed to HIV and knew that he couldn't expose Mary or a potential child. Actually, he saved her by turning her down. She then married and had two children ( born close together). Freddie was Godfather to first boy and she was over 8 months pregnant with second son when Freddie died..Mary had two fairly short term relationships, but she couldn't let go of Freddie and basically has remained single for years.
@@susanb9717 Thanks for the reply. I do believe Freddie saved Mary knowing that he had been exposed. Mary probably did want children with him, however, I don't think it was due to her biological clock, as Mary wasn't in her mid thirties until around 1985 (she was born in 1951). I guess she keeps a low profile nowadays; I truly hope she is happy and living a decent, well adjusted life with her two sons. I wish her many blessings.
@@barbararene4200 Well....I read that she asked Freddie in the mid 80's. She then found her husband and had her first baby around 1983. Freddie was Godfather. Second born in 1985, after Freddie's death. Mary asked him.around 1981. I'll have to locate the newspaper article about all of it 👍
"I looked ridiculous then but it worked"
love that moment
Susanna Babayan me too.he makes me laugh
His adorable dimples. Beautiful Freddie ❤❤❤❤
I've always loved this interview. Freddie is such an inspiration, not to mention a total badass :)
@reilly eddy could not agree more
his charisma never disappoints me
7:30 - “Of course we can’t do ALL the songs from 13 albums, we’d be there for two days-“
I’d gladly stay for two days to watch them do everything !!
Same 😁
Me too! I wouldn’t eat, drink or pee, I would literally just stand there and watch them for 2 days straight 😍
"Of course we couldn't do ALL the songs from 13 albums...we'd be there for 2 days!"...
I LOVE this incredibly funny, sexy, awesome Man!
They definitely would be there for 2 days if they did all there songs
I just love this interview with Freddie. He is so funny. Love the answers. He is so very handsome. RIP dear Freddie we will always love you.
I just watched the video and noticed that Freddie NEVER blow's out any smoke after taking a drag from his cigarette. Does anyone know why.
His face when the guy clapped near it.. Freddie was hilarious in his interviews...rip my love🌹🌹🌹
😂😂😂😂
It’s literally impossible not to fall in love with Freddie his voice his smile his mannerism everything…he was/is just everything he always will be! A true legend, a beautiful soul gone to soon♥️
He is so attractive, funny, sexy, sweet, honest, gorgeous, direct...
Wonderful man and singer, we miss you darling
Totally agree
9:57 You can tell Freddie was kind of pissed when that guy clapped in his face. I would be too if someone was that close to my face! But Freddie's face was hilarious lol. 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm thinking it was more the point of surprise than being pissed with the clap.
Honest and straightforward person. We need more musician like Freddie.
I love how Freddie is so real. He says what is on his mind. This wonderful man is so talented.
Probably one of the GOAT lead vocalist ever in rock and roll. Untouchable
You'll probably get the best interview darlin.
Freddie poured Charisma in every single word he spoke.
What a fine speaker he was.
14:12 Freddie's bit of poking fun of himself is so beautiful
Amazing how uncomfortable he looks being interviewed, by one person, but completely at ease in front of thousands of people
It's far more intimate. I'm also more comfortable as a musician divulging all of my most personal feelings in front of a large crowd rather than when answering personal questions from a stranger 1:1 but people never expect that.
I always heard Freddy Mercury sing , but never heard him talk in an interview until now , it's just like okay you know how he sounds when he sings but how about when he talks just the sound of his voice
Same
OMG Freddie looked so well here, he was also at his most gorgeous too!!! we will never forget him!!
He is such a kind and genuine person you can relate to
@JORDAN SMITH HAHAH Hello again I’m here yet again 😁
I love this man. It remains such a terrible loss. 1984 Queen at the NEC Birmingham, the energy on stage he transmitted to the audience. It will always be the best concert I ever attend.
I cant stop looking at him,he is so charming
I love his songs! I kept on listening them when I am free. It makes me so happy. His voice, songs and style are unique and fantastic ❤️
About half of the people with HIV develop AIDS within 8 to10 years. So, he was most likely infected at the time of this interview. This just breaks my heart... So many years ago, but it seems like yesterday. Miss you Freddie, you will always be loved and remembered. Your legacy will always be celebrated.
His smoking also didn’t help.
Asa Mattson he dont smoke in the usual way, did you see snoke come out of his mouth, no his only piffing.....
@@melinakristinmercury9586 love the word 'piffing' I've never heard it before.
Charlotte Bruce Ohh I thouth that was international, Wel we said that here in Norway if you dont really smoke. But can you see in every interwiev when he smoke, never coming smoke out, I have been smoking for many many years so I now. He start smoking when he was 30. And he started beacouse he never now where he should held his hands in interview etc, so he «smoke» for have somthing to have betwine his fingers......and somthing to drink 🤗 I love him so much, have been fan since -77.......lol 👑🎤🩰🎸🪕🥁♥️
And now in 2020 we can find out if you have Aids with a simple blood test
How can I love a man who I never met,died before I was born
It must be his spirit is somewhere in my soul
13:02 ❤️his smile is so cuute😭❤️💙
The sparkles in his eyes *-*
“4 little solo projects side by side
All 4 members write songs
4 old ladies are still rocking away
4 cocks fighting”
Queen is the 4 of us, 4 strong different characters
This man is so beautiful ❤️🇿🇦❤️
Omg he is so cute
I love the way he talks and calls people dears and dahling
Oh how we miss you Freddy!😢😢😢
He was just s a really nice normal down to earth person.
I don't think Freddie would have thought that 35 years later, someone from Singapore would be watching his interview here XD
Or a 68 yr old grandma here in Alabama. What a persona.
@@jojolanders or a 40 years old woman here in Italy...
A 15 year old girl from Scotland XD
Or a 19 yrs old from New Zealand
Tan Siying 54 yo from Colombia.
I will never get tired of watching this interview.❤😚😴😩
❤️😘😍😛
You know you love someone if they make u smile when they smile 😊
It's so funny the look he gives when that guy claps in his face! LOL!
His eyes ...😊😊 wonderful musician and human being.
God...he looks so amazing in this video.......what a beautiful man😍😍😍😍😍😍
I always knew about Queen before but never got hooked onto their music until a few months ago when I listened to "Show must go on" and Freddie's fun video "Living on my own." Now I'm hopelessly addicted and can't get enough of Freddie's AMAZING voice. I agree with above comments, I MISS YOU FREDDIE. Thank You for your incredible talent. God bless
best Freddie Mercury interview
I was 6 when he died . Both my parents were crying so much and I didn’t understand why . Now I do .
Me too. He died on my 6th birthday.
I wish Freddie was still alive. Queen would still be rocking and kick today's music right up the arse. Miss you Freddie.
Good thing Queen is still rocking. :)
Those eyes, that smile oh my heart🥰❤
How could anyone not love Freddie
Freddie Mercury remembered by people forever by his songs, performances and sweet personality.
I wonder if freddie can see how adored, admired and respected he still is in 2020! I have no doubt he is still playing music up in the clouds above... the colaborations are limitless!!!! Just humble as apple pie and raw...it is what it is! I adore this man to pieces even, his music is sheer brilliance and i will rock queen until i see him at the pearly gates! 😊
This is my first time seeing him talking. I didn’t expect him to have this voice. His eyes looks very sad. It make me sad. May he rest in peace
THE MORE I WATCH THIS THE MORE I START TO LOVE FREDDIE OMG. HIS VOICE, HIS HAIR, HIS ATTITUDE, EVERYTHINGGGGGGG
He is so charming
In the end- Freddie's own comments are who he really was- " A very loving person"....You made it easy for us to love you back.
Freddie was really handsome.
Omg the most gorgeous man then and 29 years later . I have not changed my mind . Wow
He had so much charisma!
This interview is like a good movie, I could watch it again and again, it's still mesmerizing.
Yes... mesmerizing is a good word to describe it.
Love him so much
His interviews are so hard to turn away from! His aura just draws you in and holds you there!😍
Those eyes i love him forever
He was so handsome. God bless you Mr. Freddie... Yes, when people ask me... I don't regret the things I did..just like he said here that he does not regret at all. The past is the past.
Very captivating.
Gorgeous in every way
I LOVE FREDDIE MERCURY.
I like it when he calls people darling he said that alot and Freddy will always be queen
I Love the way he talked 💞💞💓
Great interview with Freddie Mercury! I grew up listening to Queen back in the day. I really miss Freddie Mercury. He was an amazing vocalist! Not only could Freddie sing Opera, but he had the ability to go high & low with his voice. We miss you Freddie Mercury!
I love your pic long live the Lizard king as well
This is my favorite interview with Freddie .It shows every facet of his personality.A truly wonderful human being with talent unmatched in the history of music.And never will be.
i never met freddie in person , but hes the sort of person you love like hes your brother , he had that pure love aura about him ,
I can’t explain how I feel about Freddie Mercury. It’s a very strange thing. He seems like he was very generous and kind. His theatrical personality speaks to me in an ethereal way. It goes to my heart. Been listening to his music from the beginning, and now I have to give Rami Malik props for doing a great job of representing Freddie with total respect. ❤️
I feel the same way about freddie, i cant descirbe the feeling. I'm 25 and I have a special place for him. Love freddie
@@HannahSturgeon-sw5tuyou're beautiful
Did anyone get the feeling that Freddie was nervous during the interview? He said he didn't like to do them.Freddie speaks of relevance & he is right. Everything is relevant when it happens.We are just unaware of our surroundings at times. Freddie was a good looking man, I'm pleased he found somebody to love! R.I.P. Freddie, you magnificent Queen! 😊❤
He was taking a lot of cocain at that time.
@@gillesleroux2434he was nervous talking to new people every who met him was surprised and he took ectasy at party’s and sometimes on stage 👍
Okay, so I am watching this again. He just is so darn good looking. What a HUNK.
Even when he just talks, the speech sounds like music
