Freddie Mercury

“I would have loved to have been on the Band Aid record but I only heard about it when I was in Germany. I don’t know if they would have had me on the record anyway, because I’m a bit old. I’m just an old slag who gets up every morning, scratches his head and wonders what he wants to fuck. As quoted in "Blame it on Rio" by Robin Smith, in Record Mirror (26 January 1985) .”

“Hello everybody! Hey hey hey! Okay! Do you know it's not... it's not very often that we do shows in daylight. And I fucking wish we'd done before, I can see you all now. And there's some beauties here tonight, I can tell you! Live at Milton Keynes Bowl (5 June 1982) .”

“Listen, if you guys wanna move around and shift your asses a little, it's okay. It's okay by us, right? You can take all your clothes off if you like too, doesn't matter... Fuck off! [laughs] During a concert in Montreal, Canada, (24 or 25 November 1981), first released as videotape We Will Rock You (1984) , and later on DVD as Queen Rock Montreal (2007).”

“The Man Who Would Be Queen”

“For A Song : The Mercury that's rising in rock is Freddie the satiny seductor of Queen”

“Queen's Freddie Mercury Shopping For An Image In London”

“I hate pockets in trousers … By the way, I do not wear a hose. My hose is my own. No coke bottle, nothing stuffed down there. As quoted in NME (2 November 1974) .”

“I'm as gay as a daffodil, my dear!”

“Standing Up For Queen”

“It all began with the three wise men, followed a star took them to Bethelehem, and made it heard throughout the land”
