I've seen this quote so many times on Queenzone, and I'm wondering if he REALLY says that.
To me "Fuck today, it's tomorrow" doesn't make sense at all.. I never heard that interview, but it seems to me that the quote would be Fuck today, live tomorrow, or something like that.
Can anyone smart enough confirm this?

Retire today, live tomorrow
Plan today, live tomorrow
Laugh today, live tomorrow
Love today, live tomorrow
Lease today, live tomorrow
Mourn today, live tomorrow

And the one I really like:
Stop smoking today, live tomorrow
Unfortunately a search of "today, it's tomorrow" didn't get me anything but the incorrect use of the Freddie quote.
This seems enough evidence for me..
Now.. this means two things.
1. Freddie was an idiot
2. Some Queen fans are idiots

Great musician. Sh*t philospher.
On the other hand, John Paul Sartre.

Can't have it all ways!

I Really like that quote. When you had a bad day; Fuck today! It's tomorrow
Shouldn't it be "Fuck today AND tomorrow" ?

Well, since you seem to like it so much, I'm sure you can explain what it means then

perhaps he forgot to add "that counts"
Fuck today, it's tomorrow that counts.
Fuck today, it's tomorrow that counts.
I always thought 'Fuck tomorrow, it's today' would be a better saying.
Oh and here's a third option:
3) Fried chicken is an idiot...
Oh and here's a third option:
3) Fried chicken is an idiot...
that was the original text :
Interviewer (David Wiggs) : So do you live for today rather than for the future or...
Freddie: No, I live for tomorrow. Quite different too, fuck today, it's tomorrow. Oh, that's nice...
<studio light blows up with big noise>
Interviewer : That must have been a controversial remark.
Freddie: Somebody didn't like what I've just said ? !
later this part was re-edited with
"Freddie: No, hell is much better. Look at the interesting people that you're going to meet down there" / then light blows up / "Freddie: Somebody didn't like what I've just said ? !", to make the scene even more dramatic (or funny) depends on how you look at it ..

"Fuck today, it's tomorrow and Paul Rodgers is my hero".
Actual quote!
Actual quote!
For those unfortunate beings who fail to understand the importance and meaning behind this quotation read the following and see if it helps.
I translate "Fuck today, it's tommorow" as follows:
I shall only be concerned with how to better myself the following day. I failed today because of yesterday, therefore I should worry about tomorrow instead of distracting myself with today's happenings. If I do distract myself with the mishappenings of today I will only screw myself over again the following day. Also, even if something good happened today, I should not waste time thinking about it and being proud of myself; otherwise I shall screw myself the following day for being too proud. One of the primary things in this world that is important is tommorow.
Many of you might tell me I think too much into this stuff, or that I could have said all that by simply using just one sentence of explanation. But that would have been boring! But anyway, I believe the quotation, for the most part, defines the way in which Freddie Mercury lived out his life. He never got too high on himself, he seemed to always think ahead (on some levels not all). For instance, he did not think ahead when it came to things like collaborations; but he did think ahead enough to plan his own death. He didn't worry about the pain so much; just the fact that he wanted to go out with a bang. He wanted to keep writing music for that final gem we know as Innuendo. He even knew he wanted a follow up which eventually became Made in Heaven.
So there you have it. If you disagree you disagree. We all have our own ideas and opinions.
