Freddy Mercury on Prime (22 September)

[ynot slow]

Think I have seen this before but what an amazing doco,the guy was a genius,and the band were totally brilliant complementing each other in harmony etc.Nov 1991 was definately the day music died.Way to young at 41 he was along with many others.

I miss the man - great loss to music I reckon. Had Queen rammed down my throat as a kid and got sick to death of them but now I haven't had to hear them for soo long I'm all nostalgic and want to get hold of me mums cds.

I like the comment from a debauched partygoer at one of FM's hedonistic events ... "I'm going straight to hell just for that weekend!":devil2:

Great doco..didnt know he was born in India....might put a cd on now.....think he was 45 when he died......

[Bullitt]

5 September 1946 – 24 November 1991 so yup 45

Ithought he was 45 too,but the doco said 41,who cares way to young.

[marioc]

ah yes does anybody remember where they were when they heard the news?
I was out on lake Rotorua in a paddle boat drinking beer!

Great doco..didnt know he was born in India....

He wasn't, Zanzibar (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zanzibar) is an island archipelago off the coast of Tanzania - Africa.

A candle flame blew out the day Freddie left us. Such a life force, such a talent. Queen were part of the sound track of my life and some of his later songs are guaranteed to bring a Lil tear to my eye, Damn shame. :(

[MIXONE]

Anybody else lucky enough to see him at Mt.Smart many moons ago.Hell of a show(I just wish I could remember it!)

Yeah saw it, and along with the comments here, think what a damn shame, a guy with such a zeal for life, and gave us all that in Queens music.

[icekiwi]

Fuck I love listening to him...my kids love listening to him..
Gone but will never be forgotten thats for sure.
Robbie who?

[fire eyes]

On my way down here to Welly I had music full ball Bohemiun Rhaspody .. one of the all time greats amongst many ... I love that song .. surprised my head didnt break off with all the headbanging I was doing hahahaha .. ohh and you know when you sing to that, you just cannot help doing all sorts of facial expressions, lucky for my children's eardrums they were already down here before I got here .. at the lights in Waikanae I got some funny stares from people in the next lane .. you rock Waikanae Funny Looking People!
