I literally think my husband thinks I’ve lost my mind - he accepts my obsession with Freddie Mercury, but I now play this to fall asleep every night and I think he is starting to think I’m creepy 🤣 oh well once you love Freddie there is no turning back he’ll have to deal with it.
Freddie was SO beautiful in mind, body and spirit. He was unbelievably intelligent, gifted when it came to music, and such a sweet and sensitive person. So articulate. And so physically gorgeous. Just beautiful to look at. But his soul - it’s apparent when you listen to his songs or his interviews - he was so emotionally deep. He was a very evolved soul. I so wish he was still on earth delighting us with his musical brilliance. There will never be another Freddie. Wish he was still with us.
Well articulated. You perfectly summed up Freddie. What a man ! Emotionally deep - very evident from the songs, sophisticated, intelligent, what not. I so wish he was around gifting us lesser mortals more of his music. In fact, I am amazed at some of the lyrics of the songs he has written very early on in his career. To have that kind of depth from a 20 something year old is nothing sort of amazing. There will never be another Freddie - truer words have never been spoken !
maridepp53 He actually wasn’t around his family that much. At the age of around 7 or 8 he went off to boarding school in India and had to fend for himself... Jer was such a sweet lady though that I don’t doubt she would’ve taught him well
vramakeup44: Yes, he said he often felt lonely as a young boy because he was sent away to school at that age. I think that is where the common theme of longing and rejection come from that he sang about. He loved and respected his parents but held some resentment that is totally understandable imo. He didn't even get to know his little sister until they were young adults.
Freddy was a package, wit, drama, intelligence, actor, musical genius, and molded himself into an icon for the ages. He also created this handsome exotic desirable man, who everyone {man, woman, teen and Grandmas) wanted.He, along with his band mates were an enigma. Something that can't be copied. We can all tell certain songs by hearing the first 4 bars and there are several. No matter where you are and hear "YEAH" OVER THE SOUND SYSTEM YOU AUTOMATICALLY KNOW WHO IT IS. Love ya Fred.
He had such a calm, soothing, friendly speaking voice.....sooooo different than the MONSTER he is on stage. It's amazing to hear. He was a 💎...he really was.
All four members of the band were so soft spoken and so classy! I just love that about all of them. It needs to be said that Freddie's Annunciation of every single word in a song enabled people to actually understand rock songs in a way that they could never understand some of the screeching bands. Every word Freddie Mercury sang was pretty much understandable. Impeccable english, and my theory is that allows people from other countries to listen and appreciate Freddie because he speaks textbook English not slurring the words together and trying to sound cool.
I'm 74 and just discovered Freddie and Queen. Sexy men - especially Freddie! I watch and listen ALL day long. He really brightens my day! Sad he died but he lived his life as he wanted and he was happy up until about the last year. Thank God he lived. He's singing in the spirit world now. What a man!
I agree with all you said!! I watch and listen to him every day!! Very sexy man! There is no one like him❤️💛 He brings me a lot of peace and comfort! Thank you for all the pictures and music you put together!! He’s an excellent role model! No one like him❤️❤️💛
It’s always such a pleasure to see and hear his voice once again! Extraordinary Maestro in more ways than his voice and music even! Gift from God to leave with us in consecutive generations! ❤❤
His voice is so different here vs. just 4-5 years later. Maybe his smoking and all the strain of constant singing? If you listen to his voice in 1985---his voice is deeper; here a lot lighter. I like how he answered questions in these early interviews; I think in later ones, he seems a bit flippant and comedic. He's so calm, intelligent and respectful. So charming. Even when cursing, he doesn't sound offensive.
Freddie was more confident as yrs. went by,still a little gullible ,I think but More Confident!!Yes he smoked like a tilt😅 but Soo do I!!I wear my smoking gloves,I have to go outside!! Getting chilly but a Beautiful Day 🌞I went out earlier to the store & picked up myself an early B-day gift,I thought I'd treat myself for once!!❤ Myself 🎁
This is ASMR goals. Intelligent talk in the softest, sweetest spoken voice ever. ♡ Gosh I absolutely love his accent, his "hmm"s, "uuh"s & "T"s, his mumbling, stuttering & swearing; even when he eats and drinks and all his little lisping. All of it gives me tingles. Lol
@Sittie Madale Don't care about his choices or orientation, He was one of those people who fascinate and mesmerize anyone they meet , nothing to do with who he prefers.
This is the most relaxed I've ever heard Freddie in an interview. He seemed to actually enjoy it. I would see them about a month after this interview. To say their show was amazing is an understatement.
Interviewer spoke almost exclusively about their work. And he knew what he was talking about he had been to see multiple Queen concerts. So it definitely quickened Freddie's interest.... And he was very relaxed because he wasn't being challenged on his personal life and dragged over the coals. Bravo to this interviewer!!! You got one of the best interviews because you weren't looking for a cheap score on gossip.
Fragile Family Tree Huh? I’m 50. Been a fan since before 1980. So any post-Bohemian Rhapsody movie comments don’t carry any weight? WTF are you talking about? I wasn’t aware there were any time restrictions on becoming a fan. Hopefully I am grandfathered in. ffs
Let me say this Bohemian Rhapsody movie brought so many new fans younger, different races, it's an amazing thing to watch. I was a fan since 70s. But since the movie I have been on a beautiful Queen and Freddie journey. So your comment means nothing. Makes me smile seeing and listening to new fans. Freddie would be smiling.
Fragile Family Tree well it’s not our fault we were born after Freddie died and are only now old enough to truly understand. Just stfu with your shitty opinion.
This interview is a strong indicator of what a professional Freddie was; fully aware of the business aspect of the music world. Not just a musical genius but a highly intelligent guy as well. Look at the knowledge he had about plays, books etc that shows in his lyrics.eg Bohemian Rhapsody
He was very patient and kind and never contemptuous. He even kept his cool when he was offended. He proved his point in a very confident way. Not allowing the wrong opinion to continue. I adore his mind and humor... he’s so delicious, my God. I love his flair his energy and his thought process, etc etc
I am 63 and adore freddie i can listen to him every day so intelligent..very witty didn't care what he said his vocals magnificent writing out of this world...he grew and grew to become legend of all time so sweet to
Even when he speaks softly you can hear how strong his voice is coming from his diaphragm. He knew and felt he had a special singing gift. Thank goodness he had the drive as well to do something with it and succeed!
Just when I thought I couldn't love him more... that beautiful voice, yup love him more!!!😭♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Freddie is so articulate when talking about the band's experiences and the business aspects. This interview is just more proof of his brilliant mind which i think many people overlooked because of his stage performance. He is also so polite, patient and engaging with the interviewer (asking him how many shows he's seen LOL). It's also funny to compare this to his later interviews when he gets a bit more cheeky with his responses! :)
Freddie is very kind to the interviewer. He gives nicely thoughtful answers to some lame questions, however there are some interesting questions asked as well. Thought provoking. I could listen to him talk all night long. The sounds of sipping tea & perhaps nibbling biscuits is quite endearing. Freddie does a lot of laughing in this one. Nice.
@@DonnaleaSpencer I love it! I give the interviewer credit for a lot of it because he was asking a lot of musically interesting questions and Freddie loves talking about his work! Freddie was really picking the guy's brain when he started talking about the fact that he had seen their shows multiple times. What absolute geniuses all of them were, business geniuses but more importantly musical geniuses! Because the guy wasn't obnoxious and prying Freddie relaxed and actually enjoyed the interview. He had an actual fan interviewing him and he seemed to love that. The guy respected the boundaries and didn't try to take it into an inappropriate area because that's often times what touched off Freddie's saucy remarks later....(which were awesome and unforgettable 😂🤣)
Freddie has such a beautiful singing voice and speaking voice. He could read the phone book and make it sound melodious. The world was left tuneless and devoid of brightness when he died. He was so special. He would be in his 70s now and he may not be singing due to a lot of vocal cord damage but I know he would be writing some beautiful music. Goodnight sweet Prince.. ...............We still love you too.
What a wonderful interview! Freddie is so intelligent! Love his voice!! I have listened to this interview many times and love it more each time !! Thank you God for him and I’m so thankful we have these interviews to listen to! Love him!!
I like these older in-depth interviews. I love how Freddie explained how Queen developed their now legendary music/shows, awareness of their competition, also how they learned some hard lessons from the music industry! He was smart, funny, personable, his voice was calm and 'propah'. I liked how he asked for tea and offered the interviewer tea...❤
This is the most relaxing voice I have ever heard. I could listen to him forever (and I'm sure I will). Love hearing about the business aspects from their view.
@@giegiebee1959 Just a note for you. I had them for years many moons ago. Not fun. O finally realized I needed to get up, walk around, take a shower. I wish I had thought of listening to soft voice like Freddy's. Hang in because they can go away, mine did and I'm very grateful for that
Yes, his voice is sexy in almost the opposite way of some of the songs he sings in which he exudes such power. In interviews his voice is thoughtful and shows such a genteel and gentle spirit; it's a real conversation. He's as present in interviews as he is in his singing.
I love how personable this interview is. Like it’s right in your own living room. Freddie was just magnificent in all presentations of his life. I only wished we could enjoy him now like Brian, Roger and John still being here with us. However, the enigma that Freddie was it’s what’s going to keep him here with us in spirit forever.. Miss you Fred..🙌🙌
@Fancy Winnie the Pooh I THOUGHT I hated people speaking while chewing, or hear them sip or their sniffles... With Freddie - anything is just lovely, makes me feel he is alive. And HIS British accent is not a bit annoying, unlike with many many other British talkers. Ok, I do love American English more. But with Freddie - any British who-cares-what-origin person is dear to me bcs. of his Freddie-like talking ( if he would be as intelligent and interesting and kind and charming...... as our darling Freddie !)
I’d like to know who the one person is who disliked this? Moron. This is one of my favorite Freddie interviews! He’s well spoken, honest and sweet. His voice is very calming. And I think the interviewer asked some really great questions. This is a gem.
I love this interview of Freddie, at a time when punk music was pushing & critics take a shot at QUEEN. It shows his beauty as a person, his well grounded & honest view of the band's understanding of their place in the music business & their art.
Freedies voice is so soothing addicting He is so sweet n expressed himself so crisply ,wits He is so lovable Love him n keep him happy wherever he is born again Wonder where he would be ?
and freddie opted not to take his meds on the last few days before he succumbed..i assume it was too painful, the reason he was comatosed, dosed off and on😭my heart goes out for him. and i read somewhere that he even lose his sight hours before? And my respect to those loyal people around him at the time of his passing...Peter ( Phoebe) among them❤️
I've been loving the longer interviews with each band member. Whoever chose this photo for Freddie's interview made a grrrrrreat choice! (I'm embarrassed, but so be it). All part of Queen's Legacy.
Listen carefully you can hear him chewing gum and he has a hold of his necklace and he's pulling it back and forth and his necklace here next to the microphone and you can hear the necklace sliding making noise how awesome it's like you're right next to Freddie. He is so sweet after he wanted tea, he offered the interviewer tea!!! His voice is so call me in the seventies I could listen to this every single hour especially before I go to sleep!!!!. Love him so much 🖤
I was at this concert in Detroit 😁 I was so lucky to of seen Queen with Freddie twice in my life! I still can remember some of the concert even to this day... Freddie Keeps You Captivated In EVERY Moment.
Still missing Freddie in the middle of the Coronavirus Pandemic. Freddie would be a secret weapon. He could calm the masses who are upset about the virus. It is not good with Freddie gone and the Corona virus here too.
@@CertainlyCaro.. I thought it a massive missed opportunity , and I also think that Brian & Roger come across as desperate to be seen as equals. The historical lapses are rediculous and pointless and extremely irritating. Freddie's speaking and singing voices changed and developed as he started smoking heavily around 78 79
P. I never said it was perfect. I just said they did a great job. I implied that despite the flaws and such, Rami did a great job portraying Freddie Mercury in this film, something that I believe few people would be able to accomplish, maybe Sasha Baron Cohen would have been better in the role, but we'll never know. Personally, I wasn't bothered by the portrayals of Brian and Roger. As for the changes in Freddie's voice, I could *imagine* (because maybe it is possible) that it'd be difficult for Rami would be able to get the aging and weathering voice for the jump into the 80's. The historical inaccuracies do seem pointless to me as well, but I can tolerate it.
@@p.5557 If you know Queen history Brian and Roger started the band. Freddie came into it and TOGETHER they formed Queen. All were a major part of the band. Freddie hated that people would not include Brian and Roger and John. It's all 4. The movie wasnt done in a certain order because time was the issue. Rami played Freddie to a T. It's like Freddie stepped into his body. No one will ever take Freddie's place and he wasnt trying to.
OMG the beautiest interwiev i’v ever heard ❤️ now i now what i shall do if i feeling down or things like that......he’s my «tablet» thanks Freddie for youre wonderful realaksing voice 💋 you put me in an anouther world......youre amazing, with all you do. You have a calm way to do things, all you doing is soft and calm wooooow 🔥🔥😘😘💋
I do not quite know how to say it but sometimes he seems contradictory to a point when he even radiates a sense of insecurity and I assume that is due to his intelligence because if one is as intelligent as him there never really is one version or one answer to something. I like that so much about him because it shows humanity and a kind of independence. It also shows humility and a humble self-projection. By no means is this supposed to be criticism. I don't know if its just me who feels that way
If he was still alive thered be no need for a different singer. Adam would be carrying on his own separate career as he'd started to . Freddie would still be with Queen if he chose to be , or perhaps working more in the opera mode,as in Barcelona. ❤❤
Where did it come from? Was it made for a local adio station during an US tour? A nice series of long interviews given by Brian, Fred and Roger in Detroit.
Я не понимаю о чем говорят, я просто слушаю голос Фредди Меркьюри... Хорошая запись, так хорошо слышно голос Фредди, его дыхание, как будто совсем рядом. Хотелось бы перевод
Я тоже не очень понимаю о чем они, но его голос такой😍😍 он где-то попросил стакан воды, и где-то спросил у того кто задаёт вопросы хочет ли он немного чая😍 так мало😊
Ohh Freddie dahling, all youre sounds you make, and youre voice makes me go to wonderland 🥰 you makes me smooth and, Ohh you now.....sexyest man on earth....ever LOL 🔥🔥🔥🔥👑🎤💋💋💋💋
