    Its been awhile I listened to an Freddie Mercury and Queen. Back on the 80s, if you listened to Queen, you were gay. It was part of the homophobia that plagues our world.

    But I have to say one thing, the man could sing and put on a performance. I think I like the second video a little better. Listen to the second video 1:02 into it.

    I'm definitely a huge '80s fan, but Queen never really did it for me; especially that song. Some of his songs are likable, but I am certainly not a fan of that one. :p

    I'm a fan of Queen..not a huge fan, but they had a ton of great songs that were huge hits. I'm still building out GlamRockTalk.com and they are certainly a part of the history of glam-style rock. At any rate, I love this tribute video with Elton John and Axl Rose doing "Bohemian Rhapsody" .... just LOVE when Axl flies onto the stage and I get goose bumps when I see the sea of folks just going nuts as the shot of the crowd from Axl's point of view is shown. Check it out....
