Everyone here talks about Freddie Mercury's death as thought it was a completely negative thing, but I like to think of it as a good thing in some ways. Nothing can last forever, and the band would have started declining in quality over the years, so Freddie went out strong with Innuendo and ended like an explosion rather than slowly fading into obscurity and eventually the sad tiredness of old bands like the Rolling Stones. His death sealed his place in our hearts and the history of music on a high note rather than growing old and forgotten. His death was the best thing that could have happened to his legacy, and wherever he is now, he is glad it happened.

Oh, yes. I'm so glad Freddie is dead. Just imagine how many less fans they'd have if HE was the one touring with Queen instead of that Paul Rodger's guy.
(that was sarcasm, by the way)
Anyway, more seriously, I think that he became more famous because he died, but I honestly can't imagine that he's happy to have died. Knowing Freddie, I think he'd like to still be alive making music with his old pals from Queen. And even if their music did start declining, who really cares? I mean, it's Queen.

Oh, yes. I'm sure Freddie is so happy he died. And we're all very happy the greatest frontman in all of rock 'n' roll died, too!
XDDDDDD
freddie isn't dead.i saw him at carnoustie yesterday
I agree, I'm glad he's dead. I sometimes wish he had never been born at all. Oh well, easy come, easy go.
He said in an interview, that he doesn't want to grow old and boring. Well, he didn't :(
But he sure is dead, so it's useless to discuss is it a good thing or not.

You did too?!?!?!?

if Freddie didn't die, hundreds of fans could have ended up with HIV/AIDS, but his death raised their awareness, and kept them well. Much like a certain son of a certain deity, Freddie took one for the team, so what? I mean it was a tragedy, but think of the effect it had on health of rock fans.
Good point. Btw, you're my other Roger...

I wanted to put "the other white roger" but that would be over the name length limit.

Haha, lol. Good night :-).
Freddie's death!! Pass the popcorn.
Musicians and most other artists should die at the summit of their creativity, or else retire gracefully. However, since the latter often proves very difficult, Mick Jagger should have died in the '70s.
