Freddie Mercury
They wouldn't let us into Russia. They thought we'd corrupt the youth or something.
Freddie Mercury
I don't talk to everybody, so they don't really know the real me. I don't think anybody will.
Freddie Mercury
Gay as a daffodil.
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.
