Gosh, please stop it. So it happens in showbiz that they keep changing their mind up all the time. Considering how unique Freddie was as a global superstar, I think it's fair to say no-one knew what really came next. And that's what never made him boring, not the hopeless reissues and interviews from 35 years ago. Sorry to be brutal, but this fucking dementia has to end![/QUOTE]
It’s just a bit of speculation. I’m sorry if you feel so strongly about me wondering these things and sharing them with the community.

No he already said he wuold look ridiculous running around on stage in 1984 1986 I think

Yes definetely

Surely not as Freddie hated to live in the past and rework stuff. Unlike Maylor

Never!

YUp I think so as this was his proudest moment of his career singing with MC
[QUOTE] [b]Metropolis wrote:[/b]- would John still have retired?[/QUOTE]
No as he was close to Freddie and very loyal
[QUOTE] [b]Metropolis wrote:[/b]- would Queen have returned to America? (Possibly from the success of Wayne’s World?)[/QUOTE]
Maybe - but not too sure about it as they were the biggest band in EUrope even if noone wanted to listen to them in the US. I never understood Maylor's craving for popularity over there.

If May became the Diva twat he is now I am sure Freddie would have had enough of him

If Freddie was alive then there were no tribute show 1992, Paul Rodgers, Adam Lambert and Kerry Ellis.I don’t understand why Brian announcing regular concerts with Kerry Ellis he pronounces the phrase "let’s rock".It is unclear why he calls collabration with Ellis as "rock" it is "fuckin' pop" but not "rock".

I highly doubt it.

Probably

The only reason why the album was made is that Freddie wanted them to do something.

Possibly.

I don't doubt that. Check any late 80's interview with John, that guy wanted out.

Probably not. Bands who are not able to find new interests or hate each other break up, Queen were brilliant in avoiding that. It's possible John would retire and be replaced by another bass player.

Wouldn't the general discussion be better for this?

Sorry mate, I wasn't referring to you, I was referring to folk who find snippets of old interviews and quote them like it was some undeniable proof relevant until this day. And people who write elaborate pieces on what "would have been", fantasising about Queen recording such and such albums and doing this and that. It gets pretty tedious at times.

Well there is a certain guy around doing Queen covers with a ladyboy on vocals for years now telling everyone "Freddie would have loved it". Same thing

Further to my Everett - Wheeler model hypothesis, I think depending how far removed this reality is from the one where Freddie didn't get ill there would be some parallels - for example, the timeline of albums and tours would match. The final album and split by 1995, the big reunion in 2005 and another in 2012.
