Hi all

I have just added this interview from 1985 on my new Youtube page.

Enjoy!

Thanks for the share! :) Could you also please post the raw file (pre-youtube) in the Announce section? I could try to improve it to make it look better. .

^ Damn.

How do you restore those natural colours to Deacons face? It doesn't look like there is much information for the software to gather from the footage itself - do you put it in by hand?

Some certain Avisynth scripts and colour correction :-)

Look more closely Oscar, it`s a complete restoration. The Wall for example has the same incorrect colours imo.

Very nice - thanks !

Nice

Thank you very very much indeed!!

Thank you very much!

Thank you so much for this upload!
This is just wonderful, it is the best interview i´ve seen Freddie give on TV. Almost 40 minutes of pure honesty from the genius. There are lots of great things to point out from this interview, but i will let others discover it for themselves.

But i really feel that the minute 19min until 20min is one of the deepest things ever said about music by a composer:

"I never let a song down! The song comes first".

Absolute genius!

Thanks for this. I agree, it's one of his best interviews.

As a side note, the Japanese man's "mmmmm"s from 15:03-15:14 are quite funny.

Thanks. Very good interview indeed. it struck me though that he talks so much about message songs and how he can't write them, almost forgetting that just a year earlier he released one with Queen. "Is this the world..." was probably the closest he ever got to writing a message song.

Many thanks for all your comments and sorry for the late reply but I have someone very poorly in hospital at the moment. I agree it is one of Freddie's best interviews and he was very open. Hope to upload some more vids soon!

I hope that the person in the hospital recovers and that everything will be alright for that person and the family.

Thanks. That was great.
