Just to be clear, Freddie never came out publicly as gay until just before he died. Even though it was pretty obvious that he was as camp as a row tents. A lot people by default associate this song with his sexuality, when it’s really about someone who wants to leave a negative relationship. Also it’s important to point out that John Deacan wrote the song, not Freddie.

Freddie didn't hide himself away. He often went to gay clubs in the seventies and eighties, chatting with friends, and seeming completely relaxed. People left him alone, there were no star-chasers that I could see.

The full video, not this lyric video is one of the greatest and really iconic. This 1984 hit was massive EVERYWHERE but in the United States because it fell foul of the radio stations ( and MTV) not understanding what the video was about. It was NOT promoting 'unnatural behaviour' Street. It effectively killed Queen in the United States at that time. In the video, Freddie at the last minute decided to keep his famous moustache. Of the remaining members, Roger Taylor was very delighted to be the 'schoolgirl' Brian & John were encouraged to be the 'battleaxes'. Just having the lyric video removes the full impact of the video. The alternate part was Freddie performing with members of the English Royal Ballet. FREDDIE had a long association with the royal ballet including a memorable 1979 performance that merged rock music and ballet.

The video for this 1984 song parodies a popular British television soap, . The opening sequence features all the band members in drag (Mercury as a housewife, Deacon as grandmother, Taylor as a schoolgirl, and May as a housewife). This confused many people who didn't catch the reference. Brian May was asked in an interview with magazine March 2011 whether each band member's character in the video was an accurate reflection of their personalities? He replied: "Of Course! Everybody thinks that was Freddie's idea because it looks like something that he would love to do but it actually came from Roger's girlfriend at the time, strangely enough. It was her idea to pastiche the women." Freddie was all set to shave off his trademark mustache for his turn as a woman in the video, but director David Mallet put a stop to it. He told the documentary series ditch the 'stache for a later segment in the video, where he is surrounded by the Royal Ballet in a nod to the French ballet and its clean-shaven Russian star Vaslav Nijinsky.

Deacon’s songs tended to be heavily R&B influenced which Freddie had an appreciation for and enjoyed recording, performing and interpreting John’s music.

Montserrat and Freddie first met in 1987 after mentioning he was a fan of hers in a 1986 interview. She was asked to help with the music for the opening ceremonies of the 1992 Summer Olympics and she picked Freddie for the task. He wrote the song and recorded a demo with overdubbed vocals singing both parts of the duet himself, using his falsetto range for the female parts. She learned her part by ear listening to Freddie's falsetto track, which was then replaced in the mix with her vocal track.

Ironically it was the huge increase in profile that Queen received as a result of Freddie's death that made me, aged 12, get interested in their music. As soon as I listened to the tape it was that song that stood out for me above all others. And I've still, genuinely, never found another that can top it.

Aww you should've watched the normal music video. You missed alot that they didn't show when they showed the lyrics instead. This song has nothing to do with sexuality or people not accepting Freddie. It was written by John Deacon, the bassist. Straight with a wife and 6 kids. They all wrote songs, not just Freddie. Roger Tayler's(the drummer) then girlfriend came up with the idea for them to dress as women. They're basically dressed as characters from an English soap. The song is said to be about the women's liberation movement, or at least inspired by it. The music video got banned from MTV in America and people bashed Freddie(of course 🙄) for doing drag. After that he refused to come back to America to perform.

I loved it when I first saw it. I loved the video even more and it is a very significant video. I suppose if you are a Queen fan it is natural to love this one.John Deacon wrote the song and it was Roger Taylor's idea to do the official video. It was done as a spoof on a UK soap opera show. I adore this one. Elements of this video are seen in The Show must Go On that are important. Such as when Freddie closes the closet door. I find that significant. A beautiful song and video.

JRR Tolkien (Lord Of The Rings author) talked about applicability vs allegory. He dislike the latter, often because it felt manipulative and lazy, but almost all good stories are applicable in that people will find their own meanings in them. I don't think this song directly referred to anything, but many people inferred their own meanings in to it

Thank you for doing this tribute to Freddie. I've never seen this version where it was broken up with lyrics and visuals. It's nice sometimes to focus just on the words and music. I can understand your reaction completely in hindsight. The words seem so relevant to what we know now. The song "Who Wants to Live Forever" was not written for Freddie but it became more meaningful later in time.

“Don’t Stop Me Now” HAS to be next. But I have a feeling you’ve reacted to it already.

I’ll recommend “No One But You,” a heartbreaking tribute to Freddie that the band wrote/recorded not long after his death.

Thank you for honoring Freddie. Now I gotta get my vintage Vikings hat on to watch with ya. This song was written by John Deacon loosely based on Coronation Street and housewives who want to break free. Wish u could watch the official video with the guys in drag... Roger Taylor's idea btw.

They did tested on vocalists, Freddie was on list and they found that his voice is perfect pitch for the human ear. That’s why majority of people love his voice right off the bat. Then add the talent and well, just the man and you have the greatest voice!

There was a movie in the 80s called Highlander, well worth a watch. Queen did part of the OST, including A Kind of Magic, Princess of the universe and Who wants to live forever amongst others.

The Time has now come. You have experienced Queen in many fashions. Now you need to see many, if not all, the songs you reacted to performed Live at LIVE AID. They pack in so much in only 20 minutes, and owned the show. Seeing Freddie interact with the crowd, and the sheer size of the crown, will blow your minds. Even if you don't do it as a reaction; it is one performance that any Queen fan must watch. I'm going to watch that right now in Fact. Happy Thanksgiving to the Robinson Family, and the Rob Squad Family.
