You are about a year and a half behind the times.
This video is just a bit of fun that neither Brian or Roger seemed to have minded at the time it came out. But no doubt this thread will bring up the same tired old trite that was getting banded about when it was first discussed on here all that time ago.
Meanwhile you can play this game at their site - its called Jetset Freddie

Oh Jeeze not this thing again! :P Hopefully no one cares about it anymore.
My opinion of this remains the same. It's not offensive - it just shows the video director knows nothing about Freddie Mercury (he liked CATS, I didn't know he had a thing for poodles - and also, wasn't he cremated??)
Furthermore... Radio Ga-Ga, despite it's awful synth sounds, has a really beautiful (if simplistic) melody when you get down to it. This guy shits all over the song in buckets, it's terrible to listen to.
He should've covered I Want To Break Free, if we're looking at Works songs.

I never saw this, this band is funny, and that was cool to watch. Hell he must be fan seeing how he wore that red leotard that he did for a while
Lighten up!! It's a bit of fun and better than other covers we could mention.............Why does it seem to be OK and accepted for Queen to do live covers of songs but not OK for bands to cover Queen?? It's called homage, respect, influence (OK with maybe a little money making and exposure thrown in haha)
I really really love this... It made me feel sad and happy at the same time when I first saw it.
Here we go again...
I may be mad but, I quite like it.. Damn good cover in my opinion.

take cara freddie,stay safe!we love u
Appreciate it is an affectionate tribute.
Radio Ga Ga well wish freddie came back when i saw it i thought gosh he back but shame it wasnt the real him and like others says it a tribute and people have different ways some cool some silly but end of day it still Queen music and mind you member of the band was cross about the Grave busniess Peace
Hey, I like a good cover. This one just isn't! :P
Granted its not very good, mysically or video-wise, but I'm pretty sure they were aiming at making a crappy cheesy video.
I dont think they were trying to be "offensive" just silly, cheesy and stupid"

I think it was funny. I believe someone mentioned that the poodles were a reference to Brian's hair or something like that. No need to get mad. It was almost two years ago and it was fun to see. I don't understand how some people take more offense at this mock ups than the band themselves. At least they spelled "Bulsara" right in the video, hehe :).
