    Great lens-great band.

    Best live band ever - they won me over at Live Aid.

    I absolutely love Queen. Freddie is deeply missed. Have you seen Adam Lambert sing with Queen? He did an MTV awards show and signed on to do some shows this summer. He is the only one who can pull it off in my opinion. Look for it on You-Tube.

    Definitely a fan of both Freddie Mercury and Queen, one of the biggest disappointments of my "must see live in concert" list is that I'll never get to see them. There is however a band called Dios Salva a la reina (God save the Queen) a tribute band from Argentina and they are the next best thing, the band is incredible, check them out on YouTube. Thanks for the lens I enjoyed reading.

    I love Queen and Freddie Mercury. So tragic that we lost him.

    Love Freddie and this is a wonderful tribute to him. His legacy will certainly be with us for generations.

    An amazing vocal range. I never get tired of hearing his voice.
  • ThriftyTuscany Feb 5, 2012 @ 8:15 pm | delete
    I often think, what would he have done hadn't he died so young? I love almost everyone of Queen's songs, and his voice is unheard of these days...gee what a pity he died so early.

    i love the title of your lens. Freddie is the best ever; I absolutely love his music. What a personality! Fantastic lens. Blessed.

    I like "Bicycle Race" and played it at a piano recital...
  • ana_nimoss Oct 4, 2011 @ 6:11 pm | delete
    Absolutely! My very first vinyl album I bought (with my own money) was Queen's Another One Bites the Dust. Freddie is definitely another legend.

    Freddie got his wish, he is indeed a legend in the world of rock music! there is no denying that he was a tremendous performer and blessed with a great voice. Thanks for all of the additional info!

    I'm a bit blown away. I've never looked into Freddie Mercury, and as already said...wow! That live aid concert was beyond words. Thanks for this.

    Wow! This was such a comprehensive lens. Freddie Mercury was a true performer. Blessed by a music loving SquidAngel.
  • jaimepuxxle Feb 19, 2011 @ 1:27 pm | delete
    Probably the most charismatic performer EVER! Other musicians may have other talents, but nobody can compare to Freddie for his energy on stage. One of a kind. A great loss to the world.
  • EuroSquid Jan 20, 2011 @ 12:38 am | delete
    Freddie was one of the most talented singers who ever lived. This is excellent tribute. Blessed

    Queen is nothing but the greatest rock band ever! Did you know the mystery of bohemian rhapsody? The mystery behind the bohemian rhapsody

    Freddie Mercury and Queen were possibly the first band that I really started to follow back in the 70's and I recently started a music blog with Bohemian Rhapsody as my first post in recognition of a really great band.

    My daughter made her first webpage about her hero Freddie Mercury when she was 13 years old and his glorious voice blasted through our house at top volume. Thanks for the memories!

    I love Queen and I'm passing that legacy on to my kids. My 14 year old son even got up at a karaoke night and sang all of Bohemian Rhapsody all the way through. Great lens and congrats on the Best Celebrity Lens 2008.... you deserve it!

    Beautiful voice. "I Want To Break Free" is my favorite. Have watched the video on YouTube quite a few times. I miss Freddie and can hardly believe it's been 17 years... No time to watch the documentary right now, but I will get around to it. Thank you for this wonderful tribute.

    Hi Kathy:

    I miss Freddi. On our honeymoon, my wife and I came across a Queen Tribute Band almost by accident. It was a wonderful time and a wonderful surprise. I felt like I had actually attended a Queen concert. One of the many highlights of the trip.

    Congratulations on a wonderful trip to Freddi and Queen. It is a 5* lens and it got my vote for best celebrity lens!

    Great tribute to Freddie Mercury! When I was in London I went to see the play "We Will Rock You" and it was a great show. Definitely worth seeing.

    Freddie was one of the greatest rock singers ever. I always cringe whenever those American Idol wannabes try to do his stuff. It just don't work! Great lens . . . 5 stars for you.

    Freddie's singing literally touched me and saved me. In 1984 I was suffering from depression and thinking of suicide. It was the chance hearing of Radio Ga Ga of all things that sparked the first interest I'd had in life outside my head. It wasn't a kind of magic, it didn't happen overnight but I did start on the upward track away from depression once I started listening to Freddie's and Queen's music. Strange but true.

    In these parts, one or two Queen songs are played by the stations here practically every afternoon! I say this lens is ready to be on Top 100! faved and 5* of course! Hope to see you in my carnival glass lens!
  • GrowWear Jun 13, 2008 @ 12:22 am | delete
    More Freddie Mercury. My favorite is "I want to break free." Back in the day, I played it over and over and over... Great tribute.

    I love Queen! ***** for immortalizing Freddie Mercury on Squidoo. My favorite - Another One Bites the Dust. I remember roller skating to it as a kid!!

    I was one of the lucky few to be there at the Live Aid performance.
    Something magical happened that night. It was truly amazing!

    No way can I remember school without thinking of Queen and Freddie Mercury. You've made a great lens here!
