Extra stories from Freddie Mercury The Great Pretender

[@JD-qi1fx]

‘Genius coupled with his kindness’ … what a beautiful description of Freddie .

[@koukleum]

Man I wish I could have had the chance to sit down and have a conversation with David Richards… such a gentle, eloquent man.

[@vn8897]

Queen begins and ends with Freddie. He embodied the band's identity, it's triumphs and failings and he was the psyche whose loss it couldn't survive. He was more than just a singer. He was a charismatic genius, not afraid to go after what he wanted. He inspired not only as a writer and as a musician and as a performer but ultimately as a man. He died young, he lived his life to the full and he crammed in an amazing amount of music. More than most people could in five lifetimes. What a brave and courageous man. He never dies because he lives in his songs and our hearts. Love you...Xoxox ❤

“Miss Freddie.” We do too Dave! 😢💛👑

[@flora3177]

Freddie Mercury was much more than a rock star. He was a huge talent, a musical genius. Charismatic, sensual, sexy. He was an extremely creative, educated and interesting man. Wonderful voice, Genius, Irreplaceable!

[@edrooney9580]

Mack seems like a really good guy...Legends, all of them

[@Gardenlodge4691]

“Audition?!” I laughed out loud on that part. Can just picture Freddie saying that with his how dare they attitude and that smirk of his. Makes me think of that video of them in Budapest......”Interview? Oh don’t be ridiculous!” 😂😂

[@jmart9414]

Marie Grimes:: excellent statement! My view of the 'audition' question asked of him. I laughed! Never another remotely close to this exotic human. Ever.

[@Yo1969Yo]

It was turned down on two points, one "he asked me to audition"....Hahahaha You gotta love Freddie. I can picture Freddie saying that line.

[@Jan-if9vw]

Wonderful video of insight into Queen by those who knew and worked with them. Brian, Freddie, John and Roger are truly 4 very unique and talented individuals who came together to create pure magic. They are immortalized in their music which we are all so grateful to enjoy. This is a once in a lifetime occurrence!

[@georgiehollander2199]

HE WAS THE GREATEST !!!!

[@MargotRecabarren]

24th november, Today it’s a sad day..., but we have the gift of your legacy.., your music to give us some consolation .... thanks for this, FREDDIE MERCURY. And because a legend never dies..., you will live for ever ..., your life has been saved, by your music !! 💔💔💔💔 We all still love you...!!!

[@shonacole2124]

So neat hearing first hand of what he was truly like by his dear friends...thankyou

[@Gardenlodge4691]

David Arnold.....could not have described the overall genius and brilliance of the one and only Freddie Mercury any better!!

[@graceantonio3573]

I think the last part spoken by Richards (producer) jus about sums it up! Yes indeed, Queen was like the whole planet - the convergence of north south east west. They were the genuine article. In a word like... supercalifragelisticexpiallydocious! 😀😎😚💜👏👏👏

[@christineoneal666]

Freddie would've made a great phantom from Phantom of the Opera

[@yasminmont.6067]

I've always thought so...

[@divinefreddie4ever341]

YES!!! YOU CAN SAY THAT AGAIN❣️❣️❣️💛👍🏻🧖🏻‍♂️

[@lucasr621]

Speaking as a die-hard Freddie and Phantom fan, I think it would take a lot of work for him to “sound” like a phantom. His vocals were so gritty, especially by 1986 (phantom’s premier). The phantom should sound very light ethereal, and controlled (except when he’s having a breakdown in the finale) in my opinion. Freddie’s vocals had a lot of weight and ferocity by this time so idk... although he would be brilliant as far as the stature and gestures go. I would’ve absolutely loved to have seen him in Pirates of Penzance, though he struggled learning choreography and there’s a lot of that in that particular show....

[@Gardenlodge4691]

I like John Reid’s recollections about Freddie. Athough at first i thought he said “his genius coupled with his gayness” and then realized he said “his kindness.” 🤣😂 Also a very endearing story about him and Freddie shopping for Japanese art. I often wonder what happened to Freddie’s beautiful collection after he died. I hope it didn’t get trashed and has either ended up in a museum or someone else’s loving hands. 💛👑

[@laurabredo5362]

freddy um nome una leggenda 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@imputaniumAAQF]

RIP David

A GOD WALKING AS MAN THAT'S WHAT FREDDIE WAS.

[@hectorherrera3597]

aca' por fin encontre este documental en dvd en la pagina identi

[@Gardenlodge4691]

I’ve seen the full version of Freddie Mercury the Great Pretender - it’s fantastic! There’s a lot of footage about his work with Montserrat Caballé - how they met and started working together. Great info and stuff i had not heard about before. My only criticism is (just like BoRap, which i loved BTW) they don’t mention that the other guys had solo projects before Freddie did; i don’t know why that gets left out. Even so the documentary is a must watch! 💛👑

[@ravimusicuk]

Yeah, I knew that. From what I heard, they didn't have any time in their schedules for new, extensive interviews. Plus there was so much surplus material that Rhys Thomas had a tonne of interview clips to choose from. Have you seen the whole thing yet? What did you think of it?

[@marthanavarrete13]

Por favor entrevista en español el asistente personal estuvo toda la vida con FREDDIE MERCURY Y muy querido para nosotros los FANSS

[@hectorrodolfoherrera7901]

mercury Could you upload this documentary in Latin audio and HD 720p??, so I download it and it can be seen without problems or leave me links okay??, don't forget

[@patriciabilinkas3911]

Freddie was Godfather to Mack’s son, as was John Deacon.

[@ravimusicuk]

I thought so, somehow. Poor guy had no clue of what was going on, either. He thought that Freddie was suffering from cancer or something. He's sold [the whole of, or his stake in] Montreaux studios, as well. It must have hurt him so much to have to talk about Queen and Freddie all again. This is clearly from the same interview as Days of Our Lives, too. I wouldn't be surprised if he declined to be interviewed again.

[@metalmadtom]

Why not put this on the Blu-ray :/

[@hectorherrera3597]

holaa pido un gran pedido a queeneros y queeneras que me pasen links o torrent para conseguir este documental en dvd full ok?,saludos

[@hectorherrera3597]

espero novedades

[@scorpyaforever]

Dave...is just affected about the fact that Freddie isn't still with us, and he knows what an amaizing and unique artist Freddie was/is/forever will be. Shame on Roger & Brian for not doing some interventions...busy schedules??? Is not like Freddie was just another artist...and they have time for things like lambert and that jessie???

[@hectorherrera3597]

por favor no se olviden de dejarme links o torrent para conseguir este documental en dvd full dejo la foto,si puedo,jeje

[@hectorherrera3597]

esta es la foto del documental en dvd full the great pretender

[@kelabell6330]

Why wouls someone ask him to audition, no such a thing lol............

[@ravimusicuk]

As much as I love Dave Richards contribution to both Days of Our Lives and The Great Pretender I can't help but wonder... is he drunk? He just... seems to be slurring a lot of words and saying quite a few things in a way that don't exactly make sense.

[@delainepep22]

Dave was a great man. He was so crushed by Freddie's death. Watch other interviews this guy is a sweetheart.

[@Ild100]

Please subtitules!!!

[@patriciabilinkas3911]

Freddie audition? Don’t make me laugh.

[@hectorherrera3597]

no necesariamente tiene que ser queeneros y queeneras,jeje

[@gaftonbogdan]

Are you serious? The guy cant tell a story...he has no charm
