“Lover of life, singer of songs” – Queen bandmate Brian May on Freddie MercuryDid you know that Freddie Mercury insisted that his final resting place remain secret, and that the location is a mystery to this day? Born Farrokh Bulsara in the British protectorate of Zanzibar, Freddie’s king-sized eternal talent was matched only by his zest (we kind of hate that word, “zest” but it kind of applies perfectly to Mercery) for life and his flamboyance for forever changing everyone he ever came into contact with. These qualities merged during his career to create absolute musical masterpieces, and also produced some of the greatest live performances on record. His four-octave voice was even studied by scientists in an attempt to unlock the secrets of its intricacies and awesomeness! In life, he raised the bar for what a rock singer could be. In death, he gave voice to the millions who suffered from what was then a mysterious and incurable epidemic.So yeah.
