Don't stop me now, I'm having such a good time, I'm having a ball
Freddie Mercury
Does it mean this, does it mean that, that's all anybody wants to know. I'd say what any decent poet would say if anyone dared ask him to analyze his work: if you see it, darling, then it's there!
Freddie Mercury
What you must understand is that my voice comes from the energy of the audience. The better they are, the better I get.

Freddie Mercury
Excess is part of my nature. Dullness is a disease. I really need danger and excitement. I'm never scared of putting myself out on a limb.
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
One night Roger was in a foul mood and he threw his entire bloody drumset across the stage. The thing only just missed me - I might have been killed.
Freddie Mercury
They wouldn't let us into Russia. They thought we'd corrupt the youth or something.

Freddie Mercury
