More quotes by Freddie Mercury
We're a bit flashy, but the music's not one big noise.
Freddie Mercury
I think my melodies are superior to my lyrics.
Freddie Mercury
The bigger the better in everything.
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
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
I love the fact that I can make people happy, in any form. Even if it’s just an hour of their lives, if I can make them feel lucky or make them feel good, or bring a smile to a sour face, that to me is worthwhile.
Freddie Mercury
I never thought of myself as the leader. The most important person, perhaps.
Freddie Mercury
You know, I designed the Queen crest. I simply combined all the creatures that represent our star signs-and I don't even believe in astrology.
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'm a Freddie Mercury fan. (In response to an interviewer backstage at a Queen concert at the LA Forum, who asked: Can I tell my viewers that Michael Jackson is a Queen fan?
Freddie Mercury
Is Billy Idol just doing a bad Elvis pout, or was he born that way?
Freddie Mercury
I don't like the way my teeth protrude. I'm going to have them done, but I just haven't had the time. Apart from that... I'm perfect.
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
If I didn't do this well, I just wouldn't have anything to do... I can't cook, and I'd be a terrible housewife.
Freddie Mercury
If it's planned, it's boring
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
I like people to go away from a Queen show feeling fully entertained, having had a good time.
Freddie Mercury
Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide, No escape from reality. Open your eyes, Look up to the skies and see, I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy, Because I'm easy come, easy go, Little high, little low, Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me.
Freddie Mercury
Can you imagine how terrible it is when you've got everything and you're still desperately lonely? That is awful beyond words.
Freddie Mercury
They wouldn't let us into Russia. They thought we'd corrupt the youth or something.
Freddie Mercury
