[@zeusinduce788]

He was never the same after Freddie died

[@grotesquehag2416]

Shortly the story of this song, for everyone that doesn’t know: Freddie was very ill whilst making this song, he only had 3 takes (that’s what I have heard) to do this entire song, he was doing it, but he got really tired and he said he will be back to finish the song. He never came back... he had passed away November 24th 1991. At the time they only had about half of the song finished by the time he died so that is why they put the guitar solo and that’s why Brian had to finish the rest of the song. His last vocal word was “love”. He never got to finish this song...

[@denisebrashears1552]

Yeah....heard the same thing you just said. And anyone that never heard that and heard the song is not a true Queen fan or they definitely would have known that was Brian's voice.

[@delvz5882]

[@NateEMGMusic]

He did 3 takes for every line they gave him

[@caseythompson381]

His last recorded word was love, but his final words were pee pee. What a legend.

[@Slayqueen798]

So what they did was under Freddy’s request to Brian to write him lines and once we r done do what ever u want with this and then once brain was done he handed all the lines to Freddie and Freddie did 3 takes of every line all different so that the rest of the band when he was gone could use the best take oh and on the last line Freddie said he felt sick and not up to it he will just do it another day but that over day never came so Brian sang the last line that’s also y at the end they did little snippets of every queen song they had made… R.I.P Freddie Mercury u r and will always be remembered 😢

[@frostyguy1989]

The album cover is one of the most striking I've ever seen. It's a picture of outside their studio in Montreux, where there's a statue of Freddie Mercury looking out over the Lake. But from this position, it looks like Freddie is leaving the band in triumph, as if to say "I've won, I've fulfilled my purpose, see you guys on the other side." There's a true sense of finality, that this is the end.

[@Vortigan07]

I like your thinking. Heading off towards the horizon, leaving the other 3 on the shoreline with no choice but to watch him leave, knowing that they too will one day take that same walk and find him again out there.

[@miguelpereira9859]

Yeah that bit from Wembley is quite haunting in this track

[@mireya0269]

Miguel Pereira Yeah..but all Made In Heaven Album it's disturbing and haunting.

[@violetaflores1322]

I don't think people know this but the last sample of freddie singing at the very end is from the song, Going back but it is under his first stage name, Larry Lurex. so you are basically listening to his first and last song of his career/ life 💔 😭

[@cynicalwho4039]

When he says "mama please, let me back inside" it sounds like it's young Freddie from the 70s singing. At 02:00

[@think266]

Cynical Who Yeah 😭

[@dancrocker9318]

It probably is. As Freddy died during the production of this track, they completed it by recycling pretty much any and all recordings of his voice they had

Hello

[@saptakghosh4073]

This song makes me cry. Makes me cry and Freddie's face surfaces every single time. I get goosebumps when I think that this was his last vocals. No one can ever replace Freddie Mercury. Ever! AIDS destroyed Freddie but it could never wipe out his passion and love for music. Most importantly, it could never take away his unparalleled voice. You were truly one of a kind, Freddie! :)

[@jamesm2304]

I ignorantly / naively mused in my head a few times ‘surely he could have made it back just to sing that last line...’ Docos like Silverlake Life (on KZbin) reveal up close the nightmare of aids, and how for him to sound this amazing 6 moths before death is a miracle.

[@barbaradeluca3257]

Can't listen to this without tearing up at the end. Lots of credit to Brian for finishing it off. He has a beautiful voice.

[@COLLEENAPIKOS]

OMG , amazing still his voice while dying- better than most who are healthy!! Such a loss what a shame

[@thejayinator585]

Just imagine a life where Freddie was still with us. Would he still be touring? Would he still be in the public eye? Would John still be here? So many questions we’ll never get the answer to. We lost Freddie far too soon. Now all we have is the memories, and to us who weren’t around while he was alive, all we have are the haunting vocals and the stories he’s left behind. It’s up to us now. We have to keep Queen alive, we have to keep Freddie alive. Sharing their music, watching videos of Freddie, learning the stories of this man’s beautiful yet tragic life. I still love you, Freddie.

[@TopHat78]

John left since Fred died if he was still alive John would have probably stayed in Queen Freddie kept him stable

[@dakota3718]

I think they would have made a million more great songs, Freddie loved the audience so much, he would never stop, just like he didn’t stop till he couldn’t anymore, that’s dedication, and I bet John would have stayed, they were all good friends, it’s hard to find that in a band - these guys were and still are amazing

[@kazabushy]

The last Freddie ever sang. God, he sounds so strong and as perfect as always. I can't even get through the first verse without weeping. Freddie began recording his sections in May 1991. It took Brian 2 years to go back and finish it. It must have been so sad for them.😥

[@tamaraw.3036]

This song Mother Love was recorded at their studio in Montreaux....They started recording with Freddie in the summer of 1991, then Freddie left Montreaux to go back to Garden Lodge on November 10th 1991. I remember reading about it, and it is the same day as my birthday.

[@user-cm8so2tt4t]

Immensely powerful song, this legendary man was close to death when he belted out this fantastically touching vocal, so much so that, I believe, Brian May sang the final verse. His band mates were reeling from the reality of his approaching passing and holding it together, performing perfectly. I read somewhere that, towards the end, this song contains a fraction of a second of every Queen record released. Queen = all legends.

[@Viroh]

Oh, so that explains the end

This song is Freddie's last song. Recorded equal to 30 years ago, on May 16, 1991. It was the last time Freddie Mercury sang in the studio and possibly in his life RIP FREDDIE MERCURY (*)

What makes this especially sad is the fact that Freddie knew that his death was now ineviatable. The miracle album in 89 was full of hope and a sense that a cure might be found in time. This song is really about acceptence and preparing himself for the spritual world. What a brave brave man Freddie was. It must have very hard for all those associated with these final recordings to keep it together through such tragic circumstances.

[@mikshin9825]

Beautifully said. I think there was also an underlying sense of guilt that he's leaving the band without a leader. Probably that's why he was so active in those last months, so that they could still get some money after he died.

[@emilybailey4457]

Freddie was very giving.

[@Karen-gh8gv]

@@emilybailey4457 I just read a beautiful comment from a lady who met him back in the 70s -- she and her friend as teens had been taken to a concert by her friend's mom. They ended up face to face with Freddie and the band and the mother said, "All my daughter talks about is Freddie, Freddie, Freddie!" and Freddie just looked up shyly and said, "Really?" like he couldn't believe it. Later he gave the mother a small prize he had gotten out of one of those machines to give to her daughter. That's the kind of man he was... kind and generous and surprisingly modest.

He was so close to death when he sang this song, how did he find the strength? I take to my bed for a headache and he’s enduring such pain, such weakness yet he keeps going. How did he do it? What love and dedication it took. Also, Brian May, you are an extraordinary person and friend to help Freddie with his last wishes to record such a beautiful song, to finish the song alone. For the band to complete this the way they did, including a few seconds of every song Freddie recorded, ending with a baby’s cry. Beautiful, hauntingly beautiful. ❤️
