  1. Freddie Mercury-If i'm still alive i'll come back(to Hungary)

    Unless he was living deep in denial, he must have known in 1986. I'm sure by that time many of his lovers had already been diagnosed or had died and how would that not tip him off? That being said, I think he was drun...

  2. Freddie Mercury Biopic With Sacha Baron Cohen Set To Shoot Next Year

    As unpopular as it is to say this, I can't wait to see the finished product. I do think it's kind of weird that the script ends with the Live Aid concert. That wraps it up with a nice albeit unrealistic Hollywood endi...

  3. Is anyone else a little skeptical about the new album?

    I'm a little skeptical, but mostly because MIH is such a hodgepodge of scraps of Freddie's vocals and bits and pieces of whatever else they could salvage of his years of vocals. I have to think that they used the best...

  4. Queen at the EMAs

    Wow, do you have perfect pitch? I could tell the notes were off, but only because it sounded awful, and as if he was using the vibrato to cover it up, but even with years of music lessons, I couldn't tell you off the...

  5. Queen at the EMAs

    why is it negativity to have the opinion that freddie is a better singer, performer, and artist and adam cannot fill those shoes? If you want negativity, though, I can give you that as well. His most successful days a...

  6. Queen at the EMAs

    I agree with pretty much everything Grateful has said in this thread, but I'll add that I find Lambert incredibly annoying , not just for his contrived modesty act, but also because he's such a blatantly poor copy-cat...

  7. MIH Track 13 question

    Probably the creepiest song I've ever heard, and also one of my favorites. If it does correlate with events in his life, I'd love to know how so and what each part means. That creepy part in the middle with the chimes...

  8. Queen Close the Night by Rocking Out With Adam Lambert

    Adam was atrocious. Why does he have to scream, attention whore, and goat vibrato his way through every song? I can tell he has a great voice, but he's just so offensive and difficult to watch otherwise. Wish we could...

  9. Queen at the EMAs

  10. Queen at the EMAs

    Fairyking, Freddie's version IS over the top, but it works because it makes you feel something, at least it makes me feel something. TSMGO conveys a lot of emotion and raw feeling, but I don't think Lambert showed any...

  11. Queen at the EMAs

    It's not that he can't sing, he over sings everything. If I had never heard TSMGO before, I might have thought it was a good performance, albeit too showy and over the top, but having heard Freddie's version, it sucke...

  12. Queen at the EMAs

    The singer was Adam Lambert. Right now his fans are going ape shit all over the internet about how he's the new Freddie. Personally, I think his version of TSMGO was atrocious. Too much screaming, too much vibrato, no...

  13. Your top 10 Queen songs/The ultimate Queen top 100

    I want it all Innuendo The Show must Go On Killer Queen Save Me Radio Gaga Somebody to Love You're My Best Friend Old Fashioned Lover Boy (I know, simple song, but so so good!) Don't stop me now Fat Bottomed Girls Sev...

  14. Freddie Mercury's HIV Diagnosis – Some Insight – 1985 to 1987

  15. Freddie Movie

    I disagree that few people would watch the movie. If it is well done and gets good reviews it might catch on. I do not like the Doors, but went to see the movie because I heard it was decent. I think Freddie certainly...

  16. Science hails 'We Are The Champions' as the catchiest pop song ever

    Really? That has always been one of my least favorite Queen songs. "Killer Queen" is so much more catchy to me.

  17. Freddie Mercury's HIV Diagnosis – Some Insight – 1985 to 1987

    He was not infected in a hospital, lol. While I agree with Z, that we are making a lot of assumptions and we likely have no idea of the exact date (my throwing out the 1982 SNL date was more of an off the wall guess t...

  18. Freddie Mercury's HIV Diagnosis – Some Insight – 1985 to 1987

    Eh, I think it's more human nature than anything else. For me, and I'm sure for a lot of other Queen fans, Freddie seemed almost super human, a larger than life figure. I'm sure the last few years of his life included...

  19. Freddie Mercury's HIV Diagnosis – Some Insight – 1985 to 1987

    Thanks. like I said, those are all my opinions. I worked with AIDS patients in the early 90's and saw quite a lot with how the disease works, progresses, responds to various medicines. The Freddie time line has never...

  20. Freddie Mercury's HIV Diagnosis – Some Insight – 1985 to 1987

    I agree with a lot of the insight in the original post, but the time line of Freddie being infected in 1985 does not fit well at all. If he was infected in 1985, it would be extremely unusual for him to have already p...
