Poor Roger Taylor. Imagine being just a few hundred yards away, and your best friend's P.A. rang you, and said, "Don't bother coming, cos he's gone". That made me cry, with Roger Taylor.

It still would have been pointless. Someone dying of AIDS, especially in those days was a fraction of the shadow of their former healthier selves when drawing closer to death. I don't even think Freddie was able to communicate properly the last few weeks of his life. Scary disease and terribly sad loss.

Queen are family. How many bands can say that, they are family, after 50 years ?. Not many bands can say that, that's for sure. Brian May, and Roger Taylor love talking about their lives, and times they shared with Freddie Mercury, and John Deacon. Queen are legendary. Even though, Freddie Mercury died, in 1991, and John Deacon retired, after the death of Freddie Mercury. Thank you, for your music, your memories, your humanity, your legacy, and your legend, Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor, and John Deacon, Queen.

[@TheRealTricky]

Actually its trough misery that makes you find out if the people you call "friends" are actually friends or just selfish bastards who may deserve an Oscar for pretending so well to be a "friend". And the more horrible the misery the more clear that becomes. Now I don't envy Freddie for the fate he met, but I think that it *is* clear that the people who thought to be friends actually WERE friends who stayed with him as long as they could up to the very end. And most people can hardly imagine what it must have meant for him as only a few get into the situation they really get to know their friends. And if Freddie is to be envied for something during this horrible story, it's for having friends like that.

This always makes me emotional. You listen how they used to sometimes fight and have disagreements and then when they found out about Freddie, suddenly these issues became insignificant. Great job to all members for allowing Freddie to keep his private life as private as it could be.

"you fucking wankers" - Well said Roger, Well said :) god bless Freddie

[@dominewimbury2039]

What a seriously beautiful and brave man. Bless him

[@MarcAHiggs]

Freddies has and always will be one of the ( if not the greatest) songwriters this country has produced there is NOONE that can come remotely close to him . Freddie was a musical genius who are we to judge his PRIVATE life the world is a much lesser place without him .Freddie you will live forever in my heart and i thank you for everything that you gave us rest in peace .... THE SHOW MUST GO ON

[@KathaWhatever1990]

i don't know how much i watched this video. and others of course all day long. thumbs up for queen, freddies bravery and that special music, which will be always in our hearts!

[@snoopyr1953]

8:43 starting from that part,I started tearing up. When brian said "and he never came back.",I bursted out in tears. First time crying while watching a video.

[@stormbay4652]

He was a dying man and could still hit the notes, what a fucking man

[@happyhorsefan4156]

Ive lost all of my tears during this video. You know what they say Freddie legends will never die! Your legacy will live on forever

[@signeballethorup479]

Such an extraordinary man on so many levels. It's beautiful how he just wanted to spend the last of his life doing what he loved instead of letting people pity him, that just tells us how incredibly strong he was. Freddie Mercury was born to be on that stage. Most importantly the friendship between Freddie and the guys was so heartwarming, and if you ask me, those guys are legends for a reason.

[@patriciacalunniato6872]

I STILL FEEL SO SAD WHEN I LISTEN TO BRIAN TALKING SO PASSIONATELY ABOUT FREDDIE THEY STILL, MUST FEEL MORE LOST THAN THE REST OF US AFTER ALL THIS .TIME THE YEARS THEY WERE ALL TOGETHER JUST LIKE A FAMILY REALLY God Bless you three

[@deathbystereo-]

Always had their friends back. True friendship

[@sophiecat2161]

The last album, knowing Freddie was gone, profound sense of loss. So how it was for his loved ones...so much love and respect to all who protected Freddie. Hope they get some pleasure knowing new fans enjoy the legacy x

[@aldousacas_214]

Queen is not just a band... They’re family...

[@qwertyklopy1631]

My Family for many years

[@rxhx]

And indeed the way he says "I still love you" in the end, is a ray of hope for us all

[@rxhx]

I feel as if that part was his beautiful way of saying a final goodbye

[@FlackoWeasel]

Agreed

[@cyberia7080]

He was a beautiful man till the very end, he had the voice of an angel. Decades later their music still tops the charts. He was amazing and will still continue to draw people in. Even his last video, gorgeous human. RIP to a beautiful man who pushed till the end. So admirable ♥️♥️♥️

[@johnnyromerro]

Just cannot explain my feelings what I have after watching this video for the first time in my life, I never had courage to see it before. Its more than sad to see this and to hear, the part where the Freddie faced the camera for the last time for the video of '' those were the days'' made me cried and cried a lot and I am still crying. I cannot imagine a normal human can have such a strong will power that FREDDIE had, he knew he is on the doorstep of death but he still wanted to do music not for his own self but for his fans and for his lovers. This is the one of the main reason why I love him so much because he told life how to live, how to face worries and not minor worries but worries like death.

[@tigerbloodoneill8783]

If only he was diagnosed with this afew years later. He would probably still be here today

[@djdarckman]

You were not a group, but a family. Respect

[@samhaokip9126]

Thank you Freedie and the lads for giving the world such beautiful music. And I respect you so much for your love for your art by still recording right till your last days.

Legends never die, they live on, in our hearts. We remember them.

[@BirchyTom1995]

When Roger tell us that he had a phone call saying that Freddie has gone,you can see he was emotional and wanted to cry. RIP Freddie Mercury.

[@donjohn4778]

My mum was dying of cancer around the same time as freddie (she died in Jan 1992) and never forget his last few songs..always remind me of that time in my life.

[@yrkanak]

What a strong person, Freddie. "I just wanna make music till the day I'm fucking die. And let's go on with it." Respect, respect, respect. You're great, Freddie!

[@charleymcbride9764]

I can't even listen to These are the Days of our Lives without crying

[@janetwakefield5175]

such a great loss to the world. always remembered rip freddie

[@DIGITALSCREAMS]

such a great singer and band. I remember when he died - it was shocking and depressing. The greatest gift is that we were alive when he worked his magic.

[@bbenjoe]

R.I.P. Freddie Mercury! I've become your fan fifteen years after your death..... you are the best!

[@rubentullenaar2934]

I remember when that grainy picture came out. I also denied it, didn't want to believe it. Told my friends, he's not dying... and then he did. One of the saddest moments in my life.
