Another rocker that died young Freddie Mercury (Farrokh Bulsara) of Queen passed away on this day in 1991. A fantastic entertainer with a voice that had a range of four octaves!
Freddie died of Aids complications, something that we all know was controllable only a few years later.
I just listened to "Bohemian Rhapsody" the other day, remembering him. It seems like it
was a lifetime ago that Queen sang that....I'm sure many miss him..
Very talented Man and the rest of the group was talented also. I was listenning to some of their live stuff and noticed how it was as good as the recorded stuff. I dont think many performers can do that today.
The music world lost a great talent when he passed. I would have loved to see him live, I have heard he was amazingly charismatic onstage. He was still young, who knows what incredible things he would have done had he lived, it's such a shame.

I sing Bohemian Rhapsody at kareoke lots of times. I just love that song. Freddie must have written it after he learned he had AIDS? The lyrics are how he got it and a goodbye message to his mother. I get chills listening to it. I have never heard a song with SO much of a singer's "being" and emotions in it. I would have loved to see him perform that one live. Don't agree with the lifestyle but man, oh man, it sure gave us one of the best songs I have ever heard. He was a wonderful singer and performer. Aren't recordings wonderful? That person will "live" forever.
I remember BR being popular in the 70s? Is that right? I think I was still in grade school, in HS is when the "we will rock you" came out because I remember that always was gonna be a sports-event anthem from then on...
1983/84 is when Aids was first hit in America when they all started dying
and no one knew why or what the disease was ... Remember Ryan White - that little boy?
