"so you think you can love me and leave me to die?"

the lyric from Bohemian Rhapsody "so you think you can love me and leave me to die"...does anyone else think thats about Freddie having AIDS? or at least HIV. it makes sense...i was thinking about that today and i was wondering if anyone else thought the same thing

I'd love to answer your query but I'm just off to wax my bollocks.

hhhhmmm

whatever you say.....

"all that...crap, again?"

Notice how all the dumb ones don't have a post count or a register date?

erm...*cough*
don't try and read into things too much. Freddie himself said he didn't know what Bo Rhap meant.
Now, if you'll excuse me, it's time for a Russian Roulette session.

Actually I think you're right it must be about having aids, cause in 75 Aids was the hip disease to have. John and Roger both flirted with it briefly before giving it away for the hot space tour.

Good post Miss James,at least you had the decency to respond in a honest and polite way,contrary to the rude sarcasm by some.Anyway,I think Freddie knew what the song was about,obviously,but possibly the reason why he never said what BR was about is probably because it was a personnal thing.And why would he tell us btw?We don't need to know every inch of Freddie's life for god sake.

*the mind boggles*

Ofcourse it's about Aids, It's very obvious,

Mama, just killed a man: Freddie knows he killed a man by having unprotected sex with him.

Life had just begun, but now i've gone and thrown it all away: Freddie was young back than, but knew he threw away his life by getting Aids

Body's aching all the time: His body is getting distroyed by the Aids

and spit in my eye: Ofcourse Freddie doesn't mean spit..but cum, but it was 1975 and you couldn't say cum in a song. Everybody knows that you can get Aids from getting sperm in your eyes.

Oh baby-Can't do this to me baby: He can't believe that his lover gave him the disease.

And in the end he accepts that he has Aids and says Nothing really matters to me

Virtuoso, can I point out I was actually quoting FM.

Right, and &quot;Good Old Fashioned Loverboy&quot; was actually written about a Canadian rock group with the hit &quot;Workin' For the Weekend&quot;
