Thoughts on Thor Arnold and Lee Nolan's eleven year friendship with Freddie

Thanks for the book suggestion Doughnut...I think I will definitely check it out and I even have the Kindle app!

Doughnut there may be a Thor/Lee Back Chat story that I don't remember - but I DO remember his story about Body Language. He said they did NOT like that one and if one of them was talking too much the other would say "Don't Talk" like Freddie does in Body Language. Hee Hee I can totally picture it! They may have teased Freddie with it too, I can't remember

What is the name of Rose Rose's book please?

Get Down Make Love is sooooooo good!! That kiddo's got taste! The Milton Keyes Live at the Bowl version is STELLER! Same with that concert's version of Dragon Attack and Action This Day. Hell that whole concert is the best.

I've also been into repeated listening lately of "Stealing" - the long version. Freddie is amazing in that song imo

At work I use my phone and a blue tooth speaker to stream Amazon music (we have bad radio reception in the building). I usually have a playlist filled with Queen blasting away in the lab. I've had several people who work in the building tell me that they really like my music. :0)

Hey Shilling......believe it or not....i have Never heard the Hot Space Album. Sure, I've heard a few singles from it....but in my time it was soooo poorly recieved....that I put that album on the bottom of my wish list. Now I'm moving it to the top......as so very many fans rave about it!!

Hey....Thor n Lee (Shaun, too)....could u guys just give us a quick post to let us know you're still here?????????? Miss you guys!!!!

Typically repeat plays for me are live versions of ‘My Melancholy Blues’, ‘Save Me’, and ‘Dragon Attack’. All too good to hear only once.

Repeat plays depend on my mood of the day and Queen can satisfy all

Recent repeats: Spread Your Wings, Melancholy Blues, Good Old Fashion Lover Boy

Thor and Lee: Still patiently waiting for the good news

Shaun: hope things are well with you!

She finally shouted at him, 'You've got mud on your face, you big disgrace!

@katydyd, OMG, I cracked up about that story about your granddaughter. She sounds adorable - and clever! I remember when my nephew was in early elementary school, he heard "Fat Bottomed Girls" on my car stereo and commented that the lyrics were "mean." Apparently, it's rude to call out girls' bottoms as "fat." LOL

@mika, when my nephew was 3, the age of your daughter, I would play B.B. King's version of "The Thrill is Gone" in my car. The lyrics may not be the most appropriate, but it's an easy song for a preschooler to learn, because the line "The thrill is gone" repeats 9x. Plus, it's a rock and roll blues classic. Start 'em young. As I drove, I'd yell out, "I forgot the lyrics again. What's the next line?" My nephew, strapped in his car seat in my back seat, would bellow back, in tune to the music, "The thrill is gone!" Those were the days.

Blenkolove and katydyd, enjoy your grands when they're young and you're the Master of the Universe over your car stereo. I'm no longer in control. My teen nieces and nephew resent it when I try to force my beloved classics on them, esp. when they're captive en route. They have Spotify and have managed to pair their iPhones to my vehicle's Bluetooth. I'm forced to endure their Post Malone, Beyonce, etc. What ever happened to respect for their elders? I try to teach them that proper etiquette demands that the driver/owner of the vehicle has the ultimate say in the music selection, NOT the passengers, but they don't heed me.

For me, I don't hate "Hot Space" but I'm not enamored by it, either. It's tolerable.

Thanks a lot for recommendation. She listens a lot to various English nursery songs and starts to repeat the verses even she doesn't understand what she is singing about. The same goes to Queen songs. Mamma Mia mamma Mia in BoRhap was the first thing she sang :D
I really hope English will be for her as natural as her mother tongue.

Good Thursday everyone

Jo t my girls moan about my music in the car . I Bluetooth my Apple playlist . Yesterday my oldest asked how to connect her phone .....ummmm......I can't remember he he he

Good Morning

Hope everyone obpn the thread has a great Thursday.

It's cool and drizzly here (again)

I too love Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy, I also adore Seven Seas of Rhye. Of course Somebody To Love (especially live) I'd be happy to have on permanent loop!

I love the Dragon Attack firm Montreal. That growl in Freddie's voice when he sings "Yeah, yeah, yeah" is superb. He doesn't do it so full-throated often, bit this might be dud. Either he was entirely confident in his voice that night, or it was aggression/frustration coming out in him over the whole Saul Swimmer fiasco. Whatever it was I love it.

Love all the tales of the kiddies singing along! Cute!

Missing ourThor and Lee, but apparently the boys are busy with the book so that's all good! :-)

My Little Freddies rocking chair arrived yesterday! He loves it! Gonna try to post a piccy.

Have a good Thursday, peeps!

TTFN

And here's another one of him in a calmer mood!

Note Oscar sitting on his lap.

This is my Freddie 5D Diamond painting pictures so far....... Only a few thousand resin tiles left to apply! :-

Typos as ever! *Sigh*

Should have read "this time he did" Freddie was NEVER "dud" !!!

I found this time elapse of constructing a Freddie sculpture totally mesmerizing.
