Queen Nationwide Interview 1982

Freddie, Roger, Brian and John rare 80's interview

[@musiclove4635]

Four men of intelligence with college degrees and a knack for writing hit songs and captivating audiences worldwide.

[@loramiranda8740]

What a great group of 4 men in the world!

[@Jman-lb3qn]

Perfect formula.

[@shobhaupadhyaya880]

Freddie doesn’t have a degree, he has a diploma in Graphic Art and Design from Ealing College of Art.

[@kapuagutchen8171]

Their degree wasn't gonna make them rich as they are now... Its business and music that was gonna make them rich and well off and its proof 3 of them---they are still living it up 2day and their Families. They chose Music over Business and it was a good choice.

[@paultaylor47]

They were not very intelligent with the album they were promoting with this interview. Hot spaces was such bad direction musically that it threatened to end the band . This disco type album was about four years after that trend died

I have a picture of Brian without a torso as my lock screen. Half the people have a double take when they see it and are like wait somethings wrong here...HE DOESNT HAVE A TORSO. he goes from 6’1 to normal human size

[@wynnie_margeaux]

The length difference between John and Bri's legs never fails to make me laugh...

[@pompa04]

Not only are they the best band in modern time musically, the four of them are (were) all humble and nice towards their fans. Queen is such a uniq group and simply the BEST.

[@adriannewest8522]

They are all extremely humble

[@RichWards-Wins]

I agree. The best rock band in the world. I could care less about zeppelin.

[@flora3177]

Freddie is incredible modest and loyal to the band .. He was the engine and the heart ... Freddie was not only a frontman, but a huge talent, a musical genius. - did everything for the queen's success !! It was a great team!

[@lorrainecimino8508]

@Flora All four of them did what they did best for Queen's success. It wasn't a one man band.

[@flora3177]

@@lorrainecimino8508 ..I don't really understand what you write.... Each boy was very talented. The relationship they have working together is absolutely fantastic! However, remember! Without Freddie Mercury, Queen and the boys would not exist on their own. Freddie Mercury would have made a career on his own! Remember; All of Queen's music features the talent and hard work of Freddie Mercury. The lion's share of the idea and implementation belongs to Freddie. Band members and sound engineers working with the band recognize this. Mercury was an absolute genius. This is an indisputable fact.

[@Nina-oi1qk]

I usually can't stop looking at Freddie and Roger as the good looking men in this band but Brian is a real babe and Deaky is just so cute. Unusual to find 4 good looking men in one band.

[@stella82003]

Freddie as always with a cigarette,they four are such a good looking guys,and talented and well educated and,and and .....! I love Queen forever!

[@fernandocoronado3885]

Because he always got nervious during interviews

[@ummiramli6554]

Some people hate to be interviewed. I hate to be photographed except with family members. I DO NOT KNOW WHY.

[@ellenw391]

It was the eara. Everyone always had a cigarette then. I was a kid and I still can't believe my lungs function correctly. By the way my dad died of lung cancer when I was 17. Thankfully people started learning, but a little late In my world

[@kiely4561]

He didn’t really do it in the 70s, he was pretty straight laced and all about the music, he started drinking and smoking heavily as the 80s hit, probably to cope with the intense press interest that a band of that stature had to endure, Freddie was always quite a shy private person despite his on stage persona, he always used to look to Brian to take the lead in interviews

[@wynnie_margeaux]

1:56 OH MY GOD???? JOHN TALKING IN AN INTERVIEW???? I WOULD NOT ONLY LIKE TO THANK GOD BUT JESUS-

[@nanuh9322]

Oh my God! They are so lovely!

[@Myview246]

Roger is all kinds of hot.

[@xs1207]

Interviews in the 80s were awkward for bands. It was as if the interviewer was never on their side and their job was to interrogate the artist. I’d like to have seen Freddie and the band being interviewed with the modern format, where the show is more about entertainment and fun.. they would’ve had a laugh and loosened up. Also 1982 the band weren’t getting on too well hence the 1983 year off. Thankfully they were back in 84 to take on the world again.

[@FreshCreativeFrog25]

IKR! It would have been so fun and cool to see them do an interview similar to Jimmy Fallon’s. Playing funny games and answering fun questions... damn that would have been awesome! 😂

[@rawyld]

Oh the Graham Norton show would have really loosen Freddie up even more. The fun they could have

He was perfection all the time let’s be honest

[@heatherqualy9143]

I’d extend that to 1974-1992. He was no slouch after that, either. 😜

[@littlemissblackdress7587]

So is Brian.

[@nancywinn1349]

Sorry but i love hot space and the fact Freddie did not let anyone stop him from being him

[@BluesChanteuse]

Nancy Winn Agree 1000% I thought Hot Space was a fun album and it would've come of better if Brian and Roger weren't so tight assed about it. IMO?

[@becklee94]

It's definitely a good album. I can understand how a ton of fans, plus Roger and Brian, were turned off by it because they were so used to the previous Queen sound(s), but Freddie COMPLETELY pulled off what he set out to do. His vocals on the album are spectacular and they very successfully created that signature 80s pop sound. Also, any album that has a fucking banger like the song Cool Cat is a top notch album in my book. If Cool Cat was that album's single and not Body Language, Hot Space wouldn't have fallen on deaf ears

[@maridepp53]

Nancy: I love it too. It's good to do something different!

[@YeahDerya]

I agree that Queen songs of the 70's were better than most of the 80's, but Queen's worst song is still much better than most songs of 70's, 80's or anytime. And Radio Gaga was one of their best songs. Maybe you don't like how it sounds, but if you don't like the lyrics you didn't understand them.

[@RichWards-Wins]

I love all of Queen's songs. I prefer the 80s myself. But I love it all.

[@mariocassina90]

Brian May is Newton reincarnation

[@rocon86]

The greatest band of all time, simple as that, no other band comes close.

[@RichWards-Wins]

Fully agree. I always thought they were light years better than the beatles

[@bulsaralinda]

This is the first time I saw this one.I too do not understand much of this interview. However,it makes up with this wonderful footage that shows 'me' HOW good looking and gentil each member REALLY WAS!!!!!!!!!Woh, My heart is racing. I luv Queen xever!!!!! Bulsaralinda

[@stellathequeen97]

Roger is very gorgeous... ♥

[@stevedickson5853]

You can tell Freddie's somewhat nervous in this interview because he can't stop flicking his cig ash into that ash tray

[@user-de1ut1fk1b]

he was often acted this way in other interviews all the time drinking something or smoking.

[@v.b6028]

He looks bored..

[@treintaydiez]

[@neiljones1938]

It is a very good album. I think Dancer would have been a terrific hit single.

[@DavyMackNYC]

Brian wrote Dancer. Roger wrote action this day. Pretty ironic that years later when Freddie is dead and John retired they diss the album and try to throw Freddie and John under the bus for the bad reaction the Album got. And Roger started the whole “queen plays funk/disco” thing in 1978 on the jazz album.

[@tomfloriot8761]

Not saying it was good or bad, just saying it was different from the usual sounds from Queen and I am not saying it was better or not, just very different

[@AtomicExtremophile]

@@DavyMackNYC Brian and Roger were always vocal about not liking Hot Space. I remember an interview in a guitar/music magazine where the Brian said the album was tough because it wasn't where he was musically. I remember the interviewer asking Brian what he thought of Body Language. Brian replied "Oh that..." then went on to say that it was originally more guitar-ish but Fred wanted the song as it mostly was - nearly all synthesisers.

[@AtomicExtremophile]

Becca, Body Language was an abomination, how they released that pile of puss as a single is beyond me. Look at the quality of every other single, so well chosen. Then we have Body Language, that sounds like someone coked out of their head or in a coma mixed it. I saw them at Milton Keynes, they played some Hot Space material, but thankfully they also played great stuff like Under Pressure and the old classic Somebody To Love.

[@PositivelyPam]

Well, I personally love Hot Space and felt it showed the band's versatility, and refusal to be pigeon holed into the same musical category for their entire career. Freddie says in another interview that he doesn't give a s*** what bracket the public wants the band to be in, as he does what he wants.

As with our close loved ones who pass on... every bit of any piece of their life becomes as precious as the finest piece of art, regardless of it's quality, the perception was forced to change by a loss. love grows from the joys and sorrows their sounds provided in each of our ways in their own way. those who loved them will always have that in their hearts that no one can take away from us . =-)

[@kamwrites]

They're all so soft-spoken. Doesn't hold up to the "wild" image.

[@333br]

I'm starting to learn more about them, in knew before that Freddie was wild, but how wild where the guys like i cannot imagine adorable John being like that, the guys forcing them yes...for sure, but not on his own...

[@Gingergryphon]

It's the quiet ones you need to watch ;)

[@333br]

Diane Sciacca He was an awkward, wise old character of course, but what do youmean by that...? Cx

[@Gingergryphon]

+Yummy Sounds : By all accounts, Roger was as wild a partier as Freddie and was usually right in his wake. Brian had his moments, he enjoyed himself, probably because of his emotional nature. He got in trouble a time or two but mostly kept it together. John…heh, the dude's full of surprises :) He has nothing to prove and very married of course, but he liked his tipple. He had a fully-stocked bar behind his amps onstage whenever they played. There's a shot in the Kashoggi's Ship video where he's at a table, drinking it up, getting crazy and then sliding to the floor while his wife looks on worriedly.

[@333br]

Diane Sciacca Oh of course i know about h ow the most of "the quite ones" are full of surprise, and i know about his alcohol issues on their last tour, but got me completely on the kashoggi ship, please tell me where did you saw the footage...? :O

[@danapayne7363]

She pointed out they had degrees because most bands drop out of high school. And the faxt they all FINISHED COLLEGE WAS AMAZING and a lesson to their fans and wanna bees about the importance of higher education. Deaky used his education to create an amp...then got a Phd at some point. So did Brian. I think Roger used his biology degree studying womens' bodyparts😍. Freddie used his art degree to create the bands crest etc. And Deaky used his smarts to handle the bands finances. As they are all so wealrhy...Deaky did well!!!! I wish he coukd have handled mine!

[@susieq9801]

Deaky got an honors degree in electrical engineering, not a PhD. I don't care because he's still fabulous!

[@Nina-oi1qk]

Brian May has a PhD not John Deacon. And Freddie also studied Fashion design during his time at Ealing; he used that to design his costumes.

[@tcbell3694]

Freddie actually got a diploma,not a degree. He states that in an interview.

I think this Queen sound has a strong sound. Staying Power for example, it's a change however, a good one. In 1982 was the time Queen never toured USA however, I didn't miss a thing because my mom was dying of lung cancer and Gemini's are true to their sign. I had to let my job go because the rent was in her name and after awhile wasn't paying so, my sister and I end up homeless. However we did hear some of their music and today all.

Queen did tour the US in 1982. I saw them at Madison Square Garden on the hot space tour that was, however, the last tour they were in America
