Freddie Mercury Interviewed By Lisa Robinson 1983

A nice excerpt of an interview with the ever-delightful Freddie Mercury. If anyone has this entire piece, please get in touch!

[@giegiebee1959]

No matter what people say there is nothing in this word that can make me not like this man. He was simply gorgeous. He had everything, the look, the talent, the intelligence and the depth.

[@yasminmont.6067]

I fully agree.

[@hajnaljolsvai2488]

Madein Heaven word

[@wendyfiolek5914]

I know. Freddie was awesome and such a legend. I think he has the best singing voice of any other musician.

[@mercury_rising]

And don't forget the humour!

[@_labacanitaz]

i'm surprised no one else has noticed or mentioned but: listening to him talk about how much he'd hate staying at home and that isolation would be dreadful and awful for him , how he couldnt/wouldnt wanna' do that made my heart break. because the last 18 months of his life thats exactly what the media and press made him do. even though he was surrounded by people who genuinely loved him , which i'm so happy and thankful for , he still had to feel so trapped and alone in a way as far as not being able to really be him and live how HE lived. this man is one of the most beautiful souls i've ever had the privelege of knowing ( about ) and if anyone deserved to be happy and at peace , IT WAS HIM. but they refused to give that to him. he didnt deserve that. 💔

[@beccaletty]

Imani Dominguez I was thinking exactly the same when he spoke about never wanting to be alone or in the same room for long but that was how he left the world. 😢 his male friend Hutton wrote about it in his book too

[@evasanchez3328]

I don't know if Freddie Mercury knew just how gorgeous and sexy he was and how loved he still is. Combined with his spectacular and majestic vocal ability and performances, Freddie set the musical bar so high that no one has or will ever be able to match him. LOVE of my Life...I miss you,!

[@msmnda1]

Eva Sanchez 100% agree.he oozed sex and masculinity and didn't even know it..And his voice omg..no one will ever touch the legend that is Freddie mercury..

[@Luv2u01]

I’m sure he was aware of his sex appeal and he used it well on stage. Unfortunately his prowess led him down that dark road and to aids that ultimately cost him his life but he was a musical genius for sure. He was a shooting star who burned himself out.

[@lhernandez0315]

I hope he knows just how loved he is & always will be ❤️

[@sandrabrown427]

Eva Sanchez He may be surprised how much he is loved in 2019.

[@cmcclure67]

Freddie was so mesmerizing! His beautiful eyes just drew you in and left you thirsty for more. His voice is soothing, leaving you breathless. His handsome face, with his boyish laugh are intoxicating, leaving you to feel empty once you're no longer able to hear him........ RIP Freddie Mercury, I still love you 💜

They say that the eyes are the window to the soul--and his is a beautiful one.

[@marendenison3550]

“I just like to do different things. It’s like I don’t like to stay in one position for too long. And so that comes out in everything- it comes out in my songs, my lyrics- I just like to try everything once. And I’m not scared of the pitfalls and things, you know. And I’m not worried about like ‘my god, this is not my scene...’ In fact, I _love_ the challenge... I like doing things that are not part of the mainstream for me. And sometimes, if that works, it works in a very big way! Otherwise it’s going to be a very big flop. But I’m willing to take that risk.” He’s so awesome 😭

I feel ashamed that I didn't appreciate him when he was alive. So talented and mesmerising. Beautiful man .

[@Im_so_Retro85]

Jesus he was Hott! Anyone who got to have Freddie as a lover or close friend is beyond lucky. He was perfection. The full package. Looks, charm, sex appeal, talent, personality....my dream guy. Love you forever Freddie! ❤❤❤😘

[@yasminmont.6067]

Nobody's perfect. He broke Mary Austin's heart and he gave Jim Hutton Aids. He was a very talented, hot and intellectual man, but he was also selfish and he cheated on all of his lovers and broke their hearts. He was an imperfect human being like all of us

[@hwozniak398]

@@yasminmont.6067 I'm glad someone can say the truth about Freddie. Sometimes I think "fans" block out that he was, indeed, human. He is not a god, he was a man. A really talented one. I would like to know the backstory of the things he never would talk about.

[@yasminmont.6067]

@@hwozniak398 True. We just need to remember that we are human and love eachother that way.

Excellent interview! She really knows him and what to ask. He does not seem uncomfortable like he does in other interviews.

fascinating man; I could listen to him for hours and hours. RIP

[@successfuldani]

Thank you Freddie for not sticking to the mainstream! All Queen members are legends and you are deeply missed .

Such a beautiful and precious interview. I bet Lisa Robinson has never forgotten Freddie and his elements of sweetness and complete charisma. ..

Beautiful man. I never get tired of hearing him talk. Gone too soon.

[@patriciamcclure9687]

Love his chest hair

[@wendyfiolek5914]

He was really gorgeous.

[@annefinlayson6021]

I am definitely a little bit in love with Freddie Mercury. Apart from his incredible musical talent, he seemed a genuinely lovely guy, with a great sense of humour, and was generally very polite in interviews, when I'm sure he'd rather have been doing anything else. In the words of his good friend 'Sharon', his "candle definitely burned out long before his legend ever will". Love you Freddie, miss you very much, but may you RIP my friend. xx

[@PattiFinn]

He was a stunningly handsome genius. We love you darling.

[@paxcat7865]

Brilliant musician and adorable man.

Lisa’s voice reminds me of Mae West. I love how Freddie was so free here. He seemed more comfortable and free-spirited here. Being free-spirited is difficult for me personally. Unless I’m with trustworthy people.

[@robertacolarette1594]

What an intelligent, interesting man.

[@colinpsykes]

Winni223: Agree! Lisa Robinson, the interviewer seen here, obviously, is a music journalist and editor-formerly at Creem and Interview magazine, now at Vanity Fair, I think. She has done 5,000 interviews with famous musicians, and I think she's really honed her craft. Check out her talks with Keith Richards, Patti Smith, Jimmy Page, and Kanye West. They're great, too!

[@globalcitizenn]

He's so cool. Him and Michael Jackson have the sexiest jawlines

[@sammyjo2852]

globalcitizenn No offense, but in terms of looks, Michael Jackson was no Freddie Mercury. Not even close.

[@yasminmont.6067]

@@sammyjo2852 sorry you're wrong. Michael Jackson had a very intense sex appeal and ooze came out of him all the time. Please look closely at the Bad era....Smooth Criminal video and The Way You Make me Feel. Also: from Dangerous In the closet. MJ had the best smile in the world. He was so loving. Oh you are plainly so wrong.

[@sammyjo2852]

Yasmin ?!!!! It’s MY OPINION, and opinions are not “wrong.” I just don’t happen to see MJ at all the way that you do. I don’t deny his immense talent and musical legacy, but that doesn’t change his looks for me at all.

[@yasminmont.6067]

@@sammyjo2852 Relax Panda with the all CAPS!!!!! Yeah it's your opinion which needs revision since like it or not MJ had the best cheekbones, eyes and smile and set of teeth in the world and yes he was sexy. Freddie was super hot too. They are both beautiful.

[@sammyjo2852]

Yasmin ?!!!! No, YOU relax, darling. Why do you give a flying frig that my opinion differs from yours. I’m not going to revise my view nor do I expect you to revise yours to conform with mine. For the last time, I don’t find MJ attractive in any of his physical iterations and never will. In my eyes, he got more grotesque with every new surgical attempt to try to attain the gorgeous looks that someone like FM came by naturally. We’re done here.

[@winni223]

One of the best interviews, IMHO.

[@debinicholson2279]

I am "HUNGRY" for Freddie!!

[@graceantonio3573]

Freddie is such a lovely personality, Brian May said it before -that there's a lot of humour in Freddie, &this interview is a showcase proof to this apart from being a pretty regular, well grounded guy. Everyone has a character flaw but Freddie's is simply on the side of having a propensity to promiscuity, I guess due to his active single free spirited status as a man.

[@ednapangilamen2706]

I love listening to his song over and over again.

[@desisweeney1510]

Have anyone told him before he changed his look that... “You have a lovely mustache!” Because they should of!

[@annieh2900]

When he is interviewed with someone he knows ,likes and respects,the real Freddie from the inside comes out,I think,because he such a mystery,and hard to figure out sometimes......also,,he's so relaxed on these kind of interviews instead of people he first met or didn't like too much..,,I don't know,just my opinion on watching all his interviews on you tube...

[@Nina-oi1qk]

I agree; he seemed really relaxed with women interviewers and with David Wigg and thats all.

You know when Freddy came out having AIDS it was my very exposure to this hideous disease. And when he died the next day I being very young and inexperienced thought it killed in one day. Ah the things we don’t know. He was also my first exposure to homosexuality I didn’t know what gay meant until Freddy. And despite it being a very taboo topic in my home I still loved and listened to him. I suppose my mom thought I would go to hell for it. But Freddy transcended all it his music broke down walls and barriers and touched your very soul. I wear a Freddy t-shirt to this day. I love you Freddy and thank you for everything you are were and have still yet to be.
