Relationships between Queen memebers/

it is our fans that wish to see Queen as four close-knit BFFs but that is unrealistic.. if we look at relationships with our friends, we all have ups and downs even with the closest friends.. let alone with someone we're not that close to.

Queen got along pretty well when you take into consideration mutual their differences in music and lifestyle.. compared to let's say Pink Floyd who never got along and were always at the verge of a clash until they split up, Queen were the best possible friends in the world :)

It is hard to be involved in a band (professionally) over so many years and always agree on the course of the band and what your part of it would be, and still be friends with everyone.. I would say it's impossible.

I remember once John said that got along great musically with Freddie but that he could never imagine Freddie coming to his house for a dinner with his family and vice versa.. so I think they got along great in the band but privately they weren't friends. Roger and Freddie did get along privately which can be seen in various footage. And as it was already stated, Brian/Roger thing was always love/hate, currently being love. During work on MIH, Roger said a lot of not so nice things about Brian, mentioning that he and John had a completely another idea about how the album should sound, and that the Brian in his opinion ruined the album with his final input.

It seems to me that they all respected each other, and stick together with Freddie until his end. Somehow for me that is the most important thing, as regardless of what John, Brian and Roger feel for each other currently, they never talked much rubbish about each other in press and that's something not many bands can say about themselves.[/QUOTE]

Just want too comment on your Freddie/John comment...about not inviting him to dinner as friends....I could be wrong but wasn't Freddie the Godfather of one of John's Kids? Or was that only Mack?

They were both godfathers to Mack's son. Freddie was never a godfather of John's kids. I remember when John said that it didn't sound mean or anything, he just pointed out they weren't hanging out together privately, outside the touring/recording time.

They didn't tell all to the press or in interviews, of course. That only they know.
Whatever was relationships between them it doestn't much matter, they made a great music and that's is most important.

Yes you're right.

Most people out side the inner Queen circle would have no idea. Even less so if you're a fan looking in from here.

Reading and listening to interviews only tells us what the interviewee wants people to know

As for relationships between Brian and John... have you already seen this photo from the John's birthday party held in August 1985? Well, it's not rare to see together John and Veronica with Brian and Christine, however I didn't find any other group members on this party. https://66.media.tumblr.com/985a473172ab696ad63aba59bc9af361/tumblr_pkx51bhShS1y2ns8io6_500.jpg

Nice photo!

I do feel sad about John Deacon...it is one thing to respect his need for privacy...but lately it seems as if Brian and Roger never ever acknowledge him as a member of Queen...no mention of him even in passing

Do they even like him any more?

pathetic

Really? When asked about him, they've mentioned him, always respecting him as a musician and person. I think some people just love reading too much into things...
