MUCH love, Sinead. Thank you very very very much for visiting this pre-auction exhibition. Just how beautiful Garden Lodge is. A green oasis in the middle of all those grimy looking buildings. Plus, Fred's stunning taste in everything from art to fabrics. Fantabulousa.

[@ToursbyFootLondon]

Glad you liked this one!

[@loritrainor7052]

Oh, Sinead this brought tears to my eyes. What a magnificent collection of Freddie’s personal things. I can only imagine what it was like for you to see them in person. I am very aware of his need for privacy, but I am hoping and praying that some million or billionaire buys most of his more public items, costumes, gold records, crown etc and donates to or starts a Freddie Mercury/Queen museum for all fans to see and enjoy. Thank You so much for showing us these fabulous treasures. 👑🎤🎼🎹💜

[@colinpratt3399]

Thanks Sinead for allowing us through your video to visit this exhibition of one of the greats. I was lucky enough to see Queen twice. Freddie was such a brilliant front man, he knew how to get the audience in his hands.

[@ToursbyFootLondon]

SO lucky, Colin!! We are envious.

[@bdewar6837]

That was an amazing tour, thank you Sinead. Freddie had the most incredible voice I've ever heard.♥

[@matt2322]

​@@jeanettenfreeland1408why do you need to compare? It's not a competition. Plus, in my opinion, that's like comparing apples and oranges. For the most part, they were producing completely different types of music.

[@alliekuma4234]

There will truly never be another like him. I'm glad he is still so loved and appreciated. I got goosebumps when I saw the Bohemian Rhapsody piano. ♥ Thank you as always Sinead!

[@ToursbyFootLondon]

Glad you liked this one, Allie!

[@aairsick]

The curation was exquisite! It was presented as a museum rather than an auction lot by lot tour. Seeing all these things together just makes one sad that Freddie didn’t live long enough to benefit from the medical triumphs over HIV we know today. He was a gifted man. We were lucky the world loved him as big as they did while he was alive. Very sad for Mary I’m sure to part with these things but it is certainly understandable. I’m curious what she might have held back for herself. Thank you for the update.

You deserve a medal for standing in that queue Sinead, well done !

such a great tour you took us on today

[@debschmitt761]

Omg Sinead, what an experience! I've been watching everyone's videos and I think you are the first I've seen to show the mustache comb. He certainly did surround himself with beauty. Sothebys did an extraordinary job creating the displays. I opened an account to be able to bid but most items are now beyond what I would pay, still going to watch the live auctions. this is going to be record breaking.

[@jonriley8342]

Stunning video Sinead as usual, you have captured his spirit in this video. Can’t thank you enough, I loved you showing his quote how he wanted to bring happiness to folk and my favourite piece was the juke box. Excellent work my darling xxx

The love of his life awe they stood by each other in their solid friendship and soul mates how wonderful. Freddy would support what she's doing I'm sure and she has all the memories she wants of Freddie that's for sure. Wowza you surely come up with the good Sinead you seriously know your stuff. If I ran a show I'd want you to be the top presenter in it!!

History is beautiful to us...mostly ;)

[@beneditocrispim9554]

I liked so much to see this fantastic collection of one of my favorite singers. I remind when Queen came for the first time in Brazil, I was going out of college on night of beginning of show. Freddie Mercury simply brought all to delirium. Your performance was amazing. Nobody can substitute your way and your voice, he's unique. Till today the musics are ahead of your time, as when used in Flash Gordon movie. Thanks you Sinead for the amazing tour 🤩👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
