Being forced to leave a country by definition makes you a refugee, it doesn't matter if you are independently wealthy or have legal rights to be elsewhere if you leave because you were forced to by matters outwith your control then you are refugee.
      Nether the less there is no record of Freddie ever being in the UK before he was 18

    Brian May is a man of many talents but his guitar work with Queen is simply awesome. I didn’t know until very recently watching Queen’s live performance of “Save Me” in Montreal that Brian can play the piano also. Musical genius!

    Love your music! Being married to a pro musician (deceased-cancer) for 30 plus years, I know grand music when I hear it, and yours is grand. Our two sons are also accomplished musicians so again your music gets an A plus from them. I’m a writer/school teacher so I notice a gifted writer when I see his/her words and yours is awesome. I didn’t start listening to Queen until just a few months ago because I am a late bloomer (six children) and started college and graduated. It wasn’t easy with a husband on tour during that time and having my sixth child a couple of months before I graduated. I am going for my doctorate and writing my desertation on Queen so I read a lot on you all. The reason I am just getting acquainted with your music and Queen is because I was studying nonstop. So, am so glad that I discovered the music of Queen. With that and your album I am pretty much into the music. I am sorry for writing so much, but that’s what I do…write. Thank you all for giving me such an interesting subject to write about. “Better late than never.” right?
