In a big Queen mood. The boys in Japan, we was glam.
John Deacon playing the bass line of ‘Another One Bites The Dust’ while the rest of the band argues around him is the epitome of staying in your lane
John casually playing his bass while Roger and Freddie scream at each other and Brian is the dad friend trying to break it up is a whole mood
I love Queen because half of their songs are mind-blowing pieces about life and death and love and humanity’s inability to live together without destroying ourselves, and the other half are like “I love my bike”
actually there’s a third kind and it’s called “I’m Freddie Mercury And There’s Nothing You Can Do To Stop Me”
Elton John on Freddie Mercury.
(I’m not posting this less to correct the timeline portrayed in Bohemian Rhapsody, which I mostly really enjoyed, than simply to share a beautiful story that shines light on who Freddie actually was, up to the very end.)
Singer, songwriter, rock star, cat lover, and fashion icon Freddie Mercury was born on this day in 1946.
Fun fact: the vest in the last picture is one-of-a-kind. It was hand-painted by Mercury’s friend Donald McKenzie, and the cats on it are Mercury’s actual cats.
