Freddie Mercury: Magic Remixed On US TV Tonight

It premiers on VH-1 Classic at 8PM and is repeated later at 1AM followed by the making of A Night at the Opera. Just a heads up!

Is this the same thing that was on the Logo channel?

I have no idea... :|

That's wonderful!

And yes...I believe it is the same as the one on Logo.

Just a warning though, the A Night at the Opera will not be the complete video! They'll take out a few segments, so if you're planning on recording it don't bother. I suggest actually purchasing the DVD, it's well worth the price!

Freddie on US TV?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

It will also be broadcast at 3:00 pm on 6/19 too...

I encourage everyone to watch it! It does Freddie Mercury some justice.

I have to say, I didn't much care for this. I felt that it focused too much on his sexuality. Yeah. We get it. He was gay. What about the music?

Not only that, but the home movies kind of bugged me. I can almost guarantee that Freddie wouldn't want that kind of this shown to the world. Not with the way he always handled his private life.

I agree.

He belongs to history now.

The PUBLIC Freddie yes, but private should stay private. Dead or alive.

Interesting thought Dan. I too wonder how Freddie would be in this day and age with internet access and instant analysis and no mystery about anyone. When he was alive he never courted the press, and always valued his privacy. It's a shame when private stuff is released. I'd hope that he wouldn't turn into an Elton John doing crap sitcom appearances and reality show shit just to keep his name out there. We'll never know.

Of course, before 1991 you HAD to keep things in private that you don't have to today. Today I think he'd hopefully be a lot more comfortable and open about his sexuality IMHO. But that's just my opinion and I haven't seen the show yet.

I totally agree. I did focus waaaay to much on his sexual orientation. It hardly talked about his music. And the home videos (especially the one of him in the bath) were way to personal. As private as he was, would he want this to be shown on national television? No.

And for the record, he had bad taste in men. xD Jim Hutton? Eeeeeeew. :P

I agree with goinback that he would be more open these days....and yes, the show did focus too much on his sexual orientation...and no interviews with Mary.....
