oh, i wish the rest of the band would accept that
tremendous loss, and it was one, like Robert F Kennedy
in 1968...they should have released each and every
live concert of Queen for us fans...imagine
the Sun City, Superbowl shows of 1984 would
have seen the light of day, every hard working
day would be easier to take...i often fantasized
that Freddie backed out of the society on Nov 24
1991 and died a couple of weeks later which
made this expierence even worse for the band
as guys like Jim Hutton and Magic Johnson really
made it and are still with us, i guess.
There was bad luck for other superstars as well.
Great Black Sabbath frontman Ray Gillen died in
1993 of AIDS, he was performing live until 1991.

If you had died 24 hours ago, you wouldn't have started this thread and I wouldn't call you a moron.
But you're alive and started this thread. You moron.

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.[/QUOTE]
I understand what you're trying to say here, but the way you've phrased it, some of the key words you have used, well it sounds a little callous. I am NOT glad he is dead-I'd much rather he be alive today. Perhaps the band would become an embarrassment (like the Stones), but I loved Freedie/Queen's music enough to be OK with that. On the other hand, there was some good that came of his situation-AIDS awareness in particular, but all the good that may hvae come from his death, as far as I am concerned, is not enough to make it worth never hearing his wonderful voice, music and sense of humor that may have come in the future.

Can't see how anyone could be glad that he died when he did, but in a world where musicians who are no longer important in the industry (see Elton John) become parodies of themselves either by becoming tabloid fodder for their behavior or attacked by a Perez Hilton type for not being perfect, I'm pleased that Freddie will never have to deal with that shit. Look how merciless the press is to Brian, he doesn't seek the spotlight, and he's not anywhere near as well known as Freddie was.
I can see where both sides are coming from. On one hand, obviously Freddie's death is an immense tragedy. On the other hand, the obvious good did come from it in the form of more awareness of HIV/AIDS, etc... But also because Freddie was able to, if you minus the constant press B.S., sort of leave on his own terms. He didn't go on the "woe is me" business, trying to force everyone to like him out of sympathy, yet he didn't stop recording and stop making videos (until after TATDOOL, obviously) and go hide in his house with the curtains drawn for five years. He did what he wanted to do, and I think that shows a lot of his bravery and stamina. He left us with an inspiring show of courage, if you get what I mean? But of course, I would rather him back, rather he and his friends and anyone else had never gotten this horrid disease in the first place :(

It's from a rather obscure little song. Something about having just killed a man, and not wanting to die.

What? Freddie died????
Freddie's dead. It's sad. I've cried my share. Nothing good came from it. That's it. End of thread. Bye bye.
Hoax.
