Noticed that Brian said Freddie didnt really mean it when he said his songs were basically crap and should be thrown away like bic razors
Anyone know of anymore things Freddie said that were flippant THAT have later been explained and LUCIDATED on by Brian or anyone else?

Fuck of jones no one gives a fuck!
There is a real discussion in here somewhere. People seem to have ascribed a lot of weight to that remark of Fred's but I always saw it as self conscious and defensive, and more useful in rebuffing closer examination of the emotions, motivations and accomplishments of a shy and private man than it was in accurately describing the value of his work.

I like how people see jones' username and instantly start writing immature shit when, really, not only is this a real discussion topic but it's written in a somewhat coherent manner. In this case, those people are trolls more so than jones is.
I seem to remember Roger saying something along the lines that when Freddie say his songs don't mean anything, that he's not always telling the truth. So, yeah, he says some stuff, whether due to modesty or artistic integrity, that he doesn't really mean.
Jones,
Freddie would have hated you and you would remind him to make sure he pays his home security bills.

I agree. Medusa certainly is a lunatic, but that doesn't mean there can't be merit to something he brings up for discussion, such as this.
What GF said about it being a sort of defense mechanism sounds pretty plausible, I know people who do exactly the same thing when asked about their work.
