More quotes by Freddie Mercury
I think Queen songs are pure escapism, like going to see a good film.
Freddie Mercury
The lavish presentation appeals to me, and I've got to convince the others.
Freddie Mercury
Jimi Hendrix is very important. He's my idol. He sort of epitomizes, from his presentation on stage, the whole works of a rock star. There's no way you can compare him. You either have the magic or you don't. There's no way you can work up to it. There's nobody who can take his place.
Freddie Mercury
In terms of love, you're not in control and I hate that feeling. I seem to write a lot of sad songs because I'm a very tragic person. But there's always an element of humour at the end.
Freddie Mercury
I like people to go away from a Queen show feeling fully entertained, having had a good time.
Freddie Mercury
We're a bit flashy, but the music's not one big noise.
Freddie Mercury
I never thought of myself as the leader. The most important person, perhaps.
Freddie Mercury
And, we have no such thing as a budget anymore. Our manager freaks when we show him the bill. We're lavish to the bone, but all our money goes back into the product.
Freddie Mercury
We're a very expensive group we break a lot of rules. It's unheard of to combine opera with a rock theme, my dear .
Freddie Mercury
What will I be doing in twenty years' time? I'll be dead, darling! Are you crazy?
Freddie Mercury
Who wants to live forever?
Freddie Mercury
When the whole point of Queen was to be original.
Freddie Mercury
The bigger the better in everything.
Freddie Mercury
One year of love is better than a lifetime alone.
Freddie Mercury
A concert is not a live rendition of our album. It's a theatrical event.
Freddie Mercury
I'm a very emotional person, a person of real extremes, and that's often destructive both to myself and others.
Freddie Mercury
I want to ride my bicycle bicycle bicycle I want to ride my bicycle I want to ride my bike I want to ride my bicycle I want to ride it where I like... I don't believe in Peter Pan, Frankenstein or Superman All I wanna do is bicycle, bicycle, bicycle...
Freddie Mercury
The others don't like my interviews. And frankly, I don't care much for theirs.
Freddie Mercury
In the early days, we just wore black onstage. Very bold, my dear. Then we introduced white, for variety, and it simply grew and grew.
Freddie Mercury
If it's planned, it's boring
