00:00We had only one goal with this film, to pay tribute to the memory of Freddie Mercury.
00:06Honestly, Roger and God were reluctant to approach this type of story,
00:11but if we hadn't done it with the right people,
00:14then someone else would have done it, maybe even badly, without doing justice to Freddie.
00:20We wanted Freddie to be portrayed as he deserved, and so we got involved.
00:26It's a wonder, there is only one Freddie Mercury,
00:31and nothing could prevent us from giving him the affection, tribute and admiration he deserves.
00:37It's a peak worth conquering, yes.
00:44He was a showman par excellence.
00:47Of Parsi origins, of an unconventional beauty, openly gay,
00:52eccentric and sparkling on stage.
00:55A showman.
00:56Freddie Mercury was all of this and he didn't hide it.
01:00Many consider Freddie to be the greatest voice in rock and roll,
01:04and they're probably not wrong.
01:08Led by frontman Freddie Mercury,
01:11Queen have been able to renew themselves and remain at the centre of the scene,
01:15writing some of the most beautiful songs ever.
01:22He would have won her over even if he had played
01:25one of Cinderella's ugly and wicked stepsisters.
01:31When I perform, I am aware that certain attitudes of mine
01:36will elicit certain reactions from the public.
01:49Despite being an icon of English pop culture,
01:53Freddie Mercury was born and raised on another island on the other side of the world.
01:58There is something that many people don't know.
02:01Freddie Mercury was born in Zanzibar.
02:04And his name wasn't Freddie Mercury.
02:07And his real name was Farrock Bulsara.
02:11Young Farrock spends his childhood in exotic Zanzibar,
02:15the spice island.
02:16At the age of seven he was sent to study in India
02:19in an exclusive English boarding school for boys only.
02:23Learn to play the piano here
02:25and begins to be called Freddie by his classmates.
02:28At the age of 12 he founded the school band, the Actics,
02:33featuring covers of hit artists like Cliff Richard.
02:38When Zanzibar gained independence in 1964,
02:42Freddie's family is forced to leave the former colony
02:45leaving for the United Kingdom.
02:46They settle in Feltham, Middlesex.
02:50With his neat and tidy schoolboy appearance,
02:53At 17, Freddie hasn't yet been run over
02:56from the hippie culture of Swinging London,
02:58but soon enrolled at Hilling Art College
03:00and begins to cultivate a look all his own.
03:03Meanwhile, even the young Brian May
03:06he moved to London to study.
03:08In college, Freddie stands out
03:10for her extravagant wardrobe.
03:13At the end of the 60s he moved permanently to London,
03:16where he opens a second-hand clothes stall in Kensington Market.
03:19This is where she meets Brian.
03:22Brian plays in a band, Smile,
03:25along with fellow students Roger Taylor and Tim Stufel.
03:29In the original lineup, Smile,
03:31There was neither Freddie nor John.
03:33Judging from Brian and Roger's photos,
03:36It was a very hippie-style band.
03:39Freddie begins to collaborate with various bands,
03:42but with poor results.
03:44He assiduously follows Smile,
03:47carefully observing frontman Tim Stufel's moves on stage.
03:51It's funny that it was Freddie who chased Smile.
03:58He was convinced that this would become his band.
04:01and so he immediately made himself available
04:03when Tim Stufel left them in the lurch.
04:07Tim made a big mistake.
04:09Freddie's arrival was not long in making itself felt.
04:12First he changes the band's name and then his own.
04:16Farrock wanted to be called Freddie.
04:19Freddie, who was interested in music since he was a child,
04:23he knew there had never been a pop star named Farrock.
04:27So Farrock Bulsara gave way to Freddie Mercury.
04:32Mercury as Mercury, the messenger of the gods.
04:35A great stage name.
04:37Freddie performed an extraordinary act of transformation.
04:41It worked great.
04:47I've always been curious about artists
04:50that become one with their own image.
04:53One of these is Brian Ferry.
04:56He was born near Newcastle, into a poor family,
05:00and with Roxy Music he changed his image often,
05:04one a year.
05:05And in the end he chose the role of the refined English gentleman.
05:11And it became.
05:14So much so that he received a high honor from Queen Elizabeth in 2011.
05:20Brian Ferry became the character he played.
05:25Freddie is one of the most curious cases of form becoming substance.
05:29He invented himself.
05:31He couldn't have chosen a more fitting surname.
05:35Mercury, the messenger of the gods, is regal, divine.
05:39It encapsulates everything Freddie Mercury would become on the world stage and in popular culture.
05:46Not only in Queen, but also as a soloist, even after his death.
05:52In the music world, everyone called him Freddie.
05:56When I met him, he was already Freddie.
05:59Only later did he learn his real name,
06:04because he kept an old passport.
06:07He lived in his character.
06:12He was Freddie Mercury and he didn't want to be anything else.
06:25Queen, the choice of the band's name, is controversial.
06:29At first, to tell the truth, that name didn't make his life easier.
06:34It's a term whose double meaning is a bit misleading.
06:38But it also gave him something aristocratic.
06:42It was Freddie who chose the name of the band.
06:46He cared about noble connotations and always answered questions.
06:52“Why are we royals, Mick?”
06:55When I met Freddie, he lived in central London, in the Kensington area.
07:00And he didn't like to talk about his past, not that he was ashamed of it,
07:07but he had turned the page.
07:09Even though he cared a lot about his family of origin and was affectionate with them.
07:15Occasionally he talked about life abroad and his childhood idols.
07:22Freddie grew up very quickly, especially after his first hit.
07:28He was already very sure of himself.
07:32He fit perfectly into the music business and the role of a star.
07:38Although he was actually a shy and very reserved person in private.
07:45Shirley Bassey, who would have thought that a girl born in Tiger Bay in Wales
07:51she would have become a world-class diva.
07:55But Shirley Bassey did it.
07:57He had an elegance and style that was almost unprecedented.
08:18In show business you learn quickly.
08:21Or is it better to do something else?
08:22People only see the public figure.
08:26There's no point in convincing them that you're different inside.
08:28He doesn't care.
08:30It can also be liberating to know that the public
08:34will only understand what you choose to show.
08:37So you can be from Zanzibar and have buck teeth.
08:41But if your public image conveys dignity and authority,
08:46then that's how you'll be perceived.
08:48Freddie is the real driving force behind the band.
08:52May and Taylor, when they took him as frontman,
08:57they didn't imagine what it would become.
09:00No one before him had been able to combine theatricality and rock.
09:07I feel like many people associate the word camp with your performance.
09:12I read that the pop press described your show as over the top.
09:17No, I don't agree.
09:19Rock must also have a visual impact.
09:23And there's a lot of grit in our rock.
09:26This is a very diverse album.
09:28And we try to express this variety on stage.
09:32Each song has a different meaning.
09:34Let's call it rock and roll, if we want to give it a generic label.
09:38But each song has its own atmosphere.
09:40Is it a form of rock theatre?
09:42Yes, why not?
09:43It's difficult to classify it, because each song is different from the other.
09:48We range from 1920s vaudeville to levy rock, all the way to romances.
09:52Yes, we can also call it rock theater.
09:56Queen have a new identity and are starting to cut their teeth on the college music circuit.
10:03I heard that there was a very good band at Imperial College.
10:08I went there with some friends from EMI, without any particular expectations, and was amazed.
10:15I've never seen a fledgling band play like this.
10:19The place was very crowded.
10:22People were like hypnotized.
10:24We stood there, speechless, thunderstruck.
10:27The stage was microscopic.
10:30However, Freddy moved as if he were in a stadium.
10:34He was big and thought big.
10:37They were great songwriters, with captivating lyrics and melodies.
10:41Overall they were far ahead of other young bands on the English scene.
10:48Finding the right bassist is not easy, but in February 1971,
10:53Queen find Ingindi with the missing piece.
10:56Thus began the rehearsals for the debut album.
11:00A friend of Brian opens a recording studio, The Lane Lee,
11:04and asks for Queen's help in testing the new equipment.
11:07In exchange, the band will be able to record their demos for free at night.
11:14Queen recorded four quality songs and began to perform them.
11:24Record companies don't always have the enthusiasm to listen to new proposals.
11:30And that's why so many demos end up in the trash.
11:35Only heroes like John Peele listen to everything.
11:38So it happens that a long time passes before the demo has any effect.
11:47Queen continue to make music and rehearse at night.
11:51One day, John Anthony and Roy Thomas Baker, two producers at Trident in London,
11:57visit The Lane studios.
11:59They hear the band playing and run to report to their bosses that they have found a talented group.
12:04Queen sign a management deal with Trident,
12:09but they still have to find a record label.
12:11Their manager approached EMI and offered the band to Roy Fetterstone,
12:17my boss, the general manager of the pop division.
12:21We found ourselves with a series of tapes in our hands.
12:25We weren't sure what to do with it.
12:27It was difficult to focus on them.
12:30They didn't fit into the prog genre, nor the nascent glam rock.
12:35Queen were a bit of this and a bit of that.
12:39They frequented a niche territory that interested us,
12:42the one by Roxy Music.
12:44But initially we were perplexed.
12:48The band shows promise, but EMI doesn't know how to market them.
12:53She needs a promoter.
12:55Roy Fetterstone knows just the man.
12:57He told me, if you believe in the band, it's your duty to push them to success.
13:04I had to go around all the radio stations, one by one,
13:08and persist until they would broadcast their music.
13:12I accepted with pleasure.
13:13Eric Hall begins promoting Queen,
13:15but it's more difficult than he and EMI expect.
13:19The first single, Keep Yourself Alive, is released.
13:21and I get busy.
13:30Queen's first single, released by EMI, was Keep Yourself Alive.
13:34To be honest, listening to it again today,
13:37everything makes you think, except Queen.
13:40It's a rock song with no personality.
13:43There is no trace of Freddie Mercury's extraordinary vocal range.
13:48The guitars are not very incisive.
13:50It is an anonymous, very modest track.
13:55I got some radio play, not many,
13:59and they were not enough to place the song in the charts.
14:02A failure.
14:03I said to myself, Eric, you're incompetent.
14:06EMI then proposes a tour.
14:10We sent them on tour with Mott de Hoople.
14:13Mott's manager wanted £2,000.
14:16Queen were the ideal support group.
14:20Queen and Mott were a solid pairing.
14:25We were very satisfied.
14:27You know, when a support group comes on stage,
14:30if it doesn't work, the public will go to the bar.
14:32And we feared this.
14:34But with Queen, that fear proved unfounded.
14:37There were many sighs of relief and handshakes.
14:40The band had a future.
14:44It wasn't yet clear that they would explode.
14:47Why?
14:48Because they hadn't yet understood how special they were.
14:54It was at this stage that Queen met photographer Mick Rock.
14:59They hit me.
15:00In short, they had charisma and good melodies.
15:04Mick listens to new Queen tracks.
15:07Cool! It's a cross between Ziggy Stardust and Led Zeppelin.
15:10The cover of the second album needs a more incisive image.
15:15They wanted a glam image.
15:17They wanted a black and white photo of the band.
15:22They hadn't yet made the label cash in a penny,
15:26but Queen were already laying down the law.
15:29At the time, the emerging photographer Mick Rock
15:31It is inspired by photographs of Hollywood stars from the 1930s
15:35and shows Freddy some pictures.
15:38I would show him a picture of Marlon Dietrich
15:40to explain to him the effect I wanted to achieve by photographing the band in black and white.
15:46Freddy was thrilled about it.
15:48Perhaps seduced by the glamour or perhaps by Dietrich's idea.
15:52I'll be Marlene, she said.
15:54In short, it was an unconditional yes.
15:57Keep Yourself Alive receives little acclaim,
16:00but the first single from the second album,
16:02Seven Seas of Rai enters the top ten.
16:05It all starts with Keep Yourself Alive,
16:08the song gives the band confidence,
16:11encouraging them to write Seven Seas of Rai
16:13and Queen take off.
16:23The second album, Queen 2,
16:26it was written in the wake of the first successes
16:29and between mouths of enthusiasm.
16:31They had so many ideas
16:33that they could have made a double album.
16:36The album is sensational and stylistically varied.
16:42In my opinion it's one of their best albums.
16:48While promoting the band,
16:51Eric Hull discovers he has some passions in common with Freddy.
16:54Freddy realized that when it comes to music
16:57I went from Sinatra to Josephine Baker songs.
17:01And well, I didn't have exactly effeminate tastes,
17:05but decidedly eclectic,
17:06like Judy Garland.
17:08And I don't just mean The Wizard of Oz.
17:10He loved all of this too.
17:15The two become great friends
17:17and they hang out on tour.
17:19I'm staying in my hotel room in Luxembourg.
17:23It's three in the morning.
17:25There's a knock at the door.
17:26Who is it? I'll do it.
17:26Eric, it's me, Freddy, your dear Freddy.
17:30What do you want?
17:32I'll steal a moment of yours, let me in.
17:34Okay, I'll open the door for him.
17:35He comes in and I go back to bed.
17:37Freddy, what's the problem?
17:39It's three o'clock.
17:40We have to catch the plane to London at eight.
17:43No, no, I want to spend some time with you.
17:46And me?
17:46But we can be together on the plane tomorrow.
17:49I'll sit down next to you and we'll talk about it.
17:51No, he wanted to talk right away.
17:53I know you have other tastes,
17:55but can I hold your hand?
17:57And I...
17:58Well...
18:00If you limit yourself to the hand that's fine,
18:02but only that one.
18:04And in the end he just takes one of my fingers.
18:07Or at least I think it was a finger.
18:09I'm not sure.
18:12Not even a year has passed
18:13and so they are already ready with the third album.
18:16Sheer Heart Attack.
18:17It will be their first commercial success
18:19on both sides of the Atlantic.
18:23Mick Rock had already made
18:25the legendary cover of Queen 2,
18:27but for me this one is even more beautiful.
18:30This time they had clear ideas.
18:33For the cover they wanted to be portrayed
18:35like castaways pushed by the sea current
18:38to the shores of some desert island.
18:41My job was to make them look worn out and extremely worn.
18:45There was something very liberating,
18:49very decadent
18:50and very emancipated
18:52in that sexually disturbing cover.
18:55It showed the members of the group
18:57in various states of abandonment.
18:59The discomfort I subjected them to
19:01during the shooting it's my work.
19:04The idea is all theirs.
19:06The album does not shine only on merit
19:09of the graphic design.
19:11The song Killer Queen
19:12represents a turning point for the bandage.
19:15Killer Queen
19:18It's Queen's first great classic.
19:21Freddie
19:22he found his poetic vein.
19:27The lyrics of the song are brilliant.
19:30And then there's the counterpoint
19:37of Brian's scratchy guitar.
19:43And they understood
19:44the effectiveness of high harmonics
19:46by Roger.
19:49It's thanks to Killer Queen
19:51who conquered America.
19:53Killer Queen
19:53It's a runaway success.
19:55Freddie's lyrics
19:56they strike and disorient
19:57almost everyone.
19:59Killer Queen
20:00has multiple interpretations.
20:02It is said that the text
20:03refers to a character
20:05of management
20:05little loved by the band.
20:07But who knows?
20:09He heard me
20:10of cooked and raw
20:11over the years.
20:14The story is this.
20:15Freddie
20:16he comes to me.
20:17He wants to play me a record.
20:19He tells me
20:20Eric
20:20listen to this
20:22and puts on the record.
20:29I tell you I like it
20:31that will be a success.
20:32Eric
20:34didn't you listen to the words?
20:36But yes!
20:38Ninth
20:38listen to it again.
20:40She holds
20:40Moët Shandon
20:41in his nice little cabinet.
20:45But you don't listen.
20:47Talk about yourself.
20:48About me, Freddie.
20:50I am the queen
20:52Freddie tells me
20:53and I can't have you
20:55and I feel bad.
20:57I am the queen
20:58and you kill me.
20:59Listening to the song again
21:00he was right.
21:02I had
21:02a cabinet
21:03to Amy
21:04and I cared
21:05Moët Shandon
21:06as the song says.
21:09Hair
21:09to Marie Antoinette.
21:11At the time
21:12you wouldn't say it
21:13I used to go to Sweeney's
21:15a Beach & Place
21:16in London
21:17and I did it
21:18the permanent.
21:21I was a crossroads
21:22between Kevin Keegan
21:23and Marie Antoinette.
21:29Oh yes!
21:30You always learn
21:31something new.
21:33I have witnesses.
21:35Killer Queen
21:35talk about me.
21:38Oh my!
21:39I really had no idea
21:41that Freddie
21:43could have
21:43a crush on him.
21:45Every time I saw him
21:46he told me
21:46Eric
21:47I would eat you up with kisses.
21:50it is possible
21:51but
21:53they would have been
21:54an odd couple.
21:56The fact that he had
21:58a weakness for me
21:59was
21:59an honor.
22:00What can I say?
22:01the usual Eric.
22:05The performance
22:06of Mercury
22:07Top of the Pops
22:09in 1974
22:10made history.
22:13It's unforgettable.
22:14We are
22:15at the peak
22:16of the genre
22:17glam
22:17that shortly thereafter
22:19with death
22:20by Mark Bolan
22:21will lose its relevance.
22:25Freddie Mercury
22:26it has a look
22:27androgynous.
22:28It has the enamel
22:29to the nails,
22:30long hair,
22:32wears a fur coat.
22:34Hers is a beauty
22:35exotic,
22:36unusual.
22:37In almost all
22:38male icons
22:39glam
22:40the key
22:41it's the doubt.
22:42He will be heterosexual
22:43or not?
22:44Mercury instead
22:45it is blatantly
22:47bisexual,
22:48if not homosexual.
22:49His performance
22:50redefines
22:51many clichés
22:52of gender.
22:53Nobody
22:54had he ever pushed himself
22:55so far away
22:56Before.
22:57They were exceptional
22:59because they were
23:00ambitious
23:01and self-confident,
23:03especially cold ones.
23:04Queen
23:05they captured
23:06attention
23:07of all
23:07but the criticism
23:08he can't do it
23:09to focus
23:10the band.
23:10Naturally
23:11the spotlights
23:12they are pointed
23:12on cold ones.
23:15The clothes
23:16and the attitude
23:16of the band,
23:17particularly
23:18those of cold ones,
23:19they provoke criticism
23:20and derogatory comments.
23:21So in 77
23:22the New Musical Express
23:24title
23:24"This man is an idiot."
23:26Cold
23:26he had decided
23:27to bring
23:27the ballet
23:28to the masses.
23:29The press
23:30had become
23:31aggressive
23:31to the point
23:32that Queen
23:33they have drawn up
23:34a list
23:34of journalists
23:35unwelcome
23:35to the band.
23:36They used
23:37any pretext
23:38to take it
23:39with them.
23:39Despite
23:39they did
23:40beautiful music
23:41mostly
23:41the people
23:42he stopped
23:42to appearances
23:43accusing them
23:44to be
23:44presumptuous.
23:45While the others
23:46three Queens
23:47they were worried
23:48cold
23:48he didn't do it
23:49what to repeat
23:49"Yes,
23:50we are presumptuous,
23:51moreover,
23:52we are fabulous."
23:53Cold
23:54he was putting on a show
23:55even if it seemed so
23:56one of the
23:56stepsisters
23:57ugly and bad
23:58of Cinderella.
23:59Excuse me,
24:00Cold,
24:00Mary Bruttino.
24:01He didn't have
24:02the features
24:03of a pin-up.
24:03With those teeth there
24:04it didn't look like
24:05of course to Brad Pitt.
24:07The incisors
24:08superiors
24:08protruding
24:09they were
24:10a trait
24:11distinctive
24:11by Freddi
24:12and if you notice
24:14in all my photos
24:15he holds his mouth
24:16closed.
24:17This defect of his
24:18he created for him
24:19a certain embarrassment
24:20Like this,
24:20before shooting,
24:21I made sure
24:22Always
24:30he had four
24:31extra teeth
24:32back here.
24:33It was enough
24:34that he did them
24:35extract,
24:36but he answered me
24:37who feared
24:38That,
24:38modifying the palate,
24:40would have compromised
24:41its extension
24:42vowel.
24:42If this fear of his
24:44was founded
24:45or less,
24:46I couldn't tell you.
24:47What is certain,
24:49however,
24:49is that he
24:50he feared us a lot
24:51to his voice
24:52And,
24:52given the extraordinary
24:54qualities he had,
24:55Perhaps
24:55he wasn't wrong.
24:57Cold
24:57he loved to put on a show.
24:59In many ways,
25:01almost all of his life
25:02it was a show.
25:04His secret
25:05it was the charisma.
25:06He defined himself
25:07a peacock.
25:08He wanted all the eyes
25:09on himself.
25:10He had an attitude
25:11magical.
25:12It was sparking.
25:13Now Queen
25:14they are in great demand
25:15and so
25:16they undertake
25:17a world tour
25:18that brings them
25:18for the first time
25:19in the United States,
25:20in Canada and Japan.
25:23But behind the Queen
25:24there's trouble ahead.
25:26The contract
25:27with the Trident
25:28it reveals itself
25:28a financial suicide.
25:30Those were days
25:31in which
25:32many artists
25:33they were under
25:34to contracts
25:35that today
25:35we would define
25:36decidedly unfair.
25:39They didn't have
25:40then so much money.
25:42They lived
25:42in apartments
25:43rather modest.
25:44At the level
25:45financial
25:46they struggled
25:47long.
25:48Much more
25:49than you might think.
25:52There was
25:53a moment
25:54which I would define
25:55topical
25:55in which
25:56the paradox
25:57it has become evident.
25:59Roger
25:59he saw one
26:00of managers
26:01of Queen
26:01buy one
26:02Rolls Royce
26:03while they
26:04they struggled to disembark
26:05the Almanac.
26:06This
26:06he opened his eyes.
26:08Dazzled
26:09from the possibility
26:09of success
26:10they signed
26:11a contract
26:12without paying attention
26:12to the clauses
26:13contractual
26:14at the bottom of the page
26:15and the consequences
26:16economic.
26:17Sign a contract
26:18it meant making a record
26:19and to them
26:20that was enough.
26:20they hadn't taken into account
26:22the fact that
26:23that same contract
26:24would have forced them
26:25to make exhausting rounds
26:26without any percentage
26:28on profits.
26:29It was a thing
26:29which they had not foreseen.
26:31And so
26:32he was left with
26:32very bitter
26:33in the mouth.
26:35Their manager
26:35Jim Beach
26:36insists that
26:37the band
26:38you sign a contract
26:39with Peter Grant
26:40manager
26:41by Ela Zaplin.
26:42For Queen
26:43the proposed clauses
26:44from Grant
26:44they are unacceptable
26:45and so they decide
26:46to turn to
26:47to the manager
26:47by Elton John
26:48John Reed.
26:48In 1975
26:50Queen
26:50they publish
26:51the fourth album
26:52A Night at the Opera.
26:53Afterwards
26:54the album will be defined
26:55from the public
26:56and from critics
26:56as one of the best
26:58album
26:58of all time.
27:00I was there
27:01when they presented
27:02preview
27:03A Night at the Opera.
27:05We were there
27:06to listen
27:06a nice album
27:07when suddenly
27:08part
27:09a musical interlude
27:10very unexpected.
27:20We were in shock
27:21never heard of it
27:22nothing like this.
27:26There were those who thought
27:28that it was brilliant
27:29and who is crazy.
27:32The song
27:33And
27:33Bohemian Rhapsody.
27:35After listening to it
27:36John Reed
27:37and Amy
27:38they're starting to worry.
27:41For John Reed
27:43Bohemian Rhapsody
27:44it's a trace
27:45too long.
27:46At the time
27:47the BBC
27:48did not transmit
27:49the songs
27:49that they overcome
27:50the three minutes.
27:51To Amy
27:52we discussed it at length
27:53but what do they think?
27:55to do?
27:56They wrote
27:57a trace
27:57too long
27:58there will be three singles
27:59in one.
28:00And instead
28:01it was a stroke of genius.
28:06Still
28:07I don't understand it
28:08Really.
28:09Mom
28:10I just
28:10killed a man
28:11I pointed at him
28:13the gun
28:13to the head
28:14I pressed
28:15the trigger
28:16listening
28:16I like
28:17it's sad
28:18but I'm not coming
28:19at the head
28:20I don't understand it
28:20be that as it may
28:21I say
28:22Freddy
28:22I love it
28:23but they won't pass it
28:24never on the radio
28:24it lasted at the beginning
28:25almost ten minutes
28:26it was too long
28:29I am
28:30the idiot
28:30gone down in history
28:31for asking
28:32of the cuts
28:33on Bohemian Rhapsody
28:34their reaction
28:35two words
28:36scurrilous
28:38And
28:39naturally
28:40the rest
28:41it's history
28:42the band
28:43he doesn't give in
28:44and thanks to the support
28:45of the producer
28:46Roy Thomas Baker
28:47entrust the song
28:48by ears
28:49more sensitive
28:51Kenny Everett
28:52of Capitol Radio
28:53he is convinced
28:54that the song
28:54it's a bomb
28:55he deserves recognition
28:56the merit
28:57to have transmitted it
28:57on the radio
28:58because he believed in it
29:02after having checked it
29:04on the length
29:04of the song
29:05Queen
29:05they want to turn
29:06the video too
29:07in their own way
29:09at the time
29:10we produced clips
29:11promotional
29:12continuously
29:13the song was sent
29:14and the artists
29:15they sang playback
29:16the industry
29:17of the video clip
29:18it was still
29:18at this stage
29:22with Bohemian Rhapsody
29:24Queen
29:25on their own
29:26they decided
29:27who had come
29:28the moment
29:28to do something
29:30of innovative
29:34a decision
29:35dictated
29:36from practical needs
29:37they knew
29:38that with that song
29:39they would have been given to him
29:40precluded guests
29:41like that one
29:41Top of the Pops
29:42as a rule
29:44at the BBC
29:44they made available
29:46of the artists
29:47a study
29:47to engrave
29:48of the bases
29:49on which
29:49sing
29:50in playback
29:51most of the time
29:53they discarded the tape
29:54and they put
29:55the original base
30:00we knew
30:00that the only thing
30:01to do
30:02was to send
30:03at the BBC
30:04a video
30:05so strong
30:06that they would not have
30:07could have refused
30:08to transmit it
30:09creative merit
30:11everything is fine
30:12to the band
30:12Like this
30:13like the choice
30:14to have it directed
30:16to Bruce Gowers
30:19Amy
30:20tries to impose
30:21to the band
30:21a director
30:21of trust
30:22of the label
30:22but the Queen
30:23they oppose
30:24strenuously
30:25no no no
30:26Mansfield
30:27it's not good
30:28we want
30:29Bruce Gowers
30:30No
30:31I say
30:31I have an agreement
30:32with Mansfield
30:33he makes all the videos
30:34of Amy
30:35from Olivia
30:36Newton-John
30:36to Cliff Richard
30:40Mansfield
30:40he took
30:41400 pounds
30:42on video
30:43but Freddy
30:43he tells me no
30:44nothing Mansfield
30:45then let's discuss
30:46we have decided
30:48Freddy tells me
30:49without me
30:49decide how to spend
30:51my money
30:51without consulting me
30:52and he
30:53we have chosen
30:54Bruce Gowers
30:56it will cost
30:574 or 5 at most
31:00In short
31:00400 or 500 pounds
31:02like Mansfield
31:03I say
31:04No
31:054 or 5 thousand pounds
31:07he does it
31:07What
31:08but you're crazy
31:09with that figure
31:10let's turn away
31:11with the wind 2
31:14we had a shock
31:15we remained
31:16out of breath
31:18I remember
31:18the anger
31:19after the argument
31:20with Freddy
31:20in the end
31:21he won
31:23it was money
31:24well spent
31:25that video
31:26transformed the sector
31:27Freddy
31:28he told me
31:28that the day before
31:29they had turned
31:30a video
31:31with Bruce Gowers
31:32Well
31:32yes from the case
31:33that video
31:34has revolutionized
31:35the way in which
31:36music is enjoyed
31:37without
31:38that short film
31:39they would not have been born
31:40nor MTV
31:41nor VH1
31:43In short
31:44I was wrong
31:45I didn't understand anything
31:46the video
31:48it caused such a stir
31:49at the top of the pops
31:50which remained in first place
31:51for nine weeks
31:52every morning
31:53we were checking
31:54sales data
31:56ready
31:57I'm Eric
31:57how many discs
31:58we sold
31:59Yesterday
32:00Queen

32:05I knew it
32:06I knew it
32:06the thing I feared most
32:08let it come true
32:08the boys
32:09they don't buy it
32:10because it's too long
32:1160 copies
32:13I knew it
32:13it's the end
32:14Eric
32:15there are 60,000
32:1760,000
32:1860,000

32:22by Celia Black
32:24to the Sex Pistols
32:25up to Elton John
32:26but nobody
32:27he sold
32:28How much
32:28Bohemian Rhapsody
32:29we were selling
32:30between 60
32:31and the 80,000 copies
32:33per day
32:33if today
32:34do similar numbers
32:35stay on top
32:36to the ranking
32:37for 12 weeks
32:38at the apex
32:39of success
32:40that record
32:40he came to sell
32:41130,000 copies
32:42in just one day
32:43that single
32:44so controversial
32:45he made of
32:46A Night
32:47of Opera
32:47an album
32:48exceptional
32:49and projected
32:50Queen
32:50in the stratosphere
32:52Bohemian Rhapsody
32:54in crazy
32:54on the radio
32:55and on TV
32:57Queen
32:58they enter with full rights
32:59among the heavyweights
33:00they revolutionized
33:02the music scene
33:03and the language
33:04of video clips
33:05in a short time
33:07many other musicians
33:08they would have followed
33:09their footsteps
33:10many musicians
33:12they learned
33:13the lesson
33:13and they decided
33:15to do something
33:16similar
33:18Bohemian Rhapsody
33:19remains the greatest
33:20success
33:21of the Queen
33:22it is still being discussed
33:24on what he has
33:24inspired by Mercury
33:25and who they are
33:26dedicated
33:27his verses
33:27the artist
33:29has never
33:29provided clarifications
33:30limiting himself to saying
33:31that the song
33:32talks about human relationships
33:34the melody
33:35it's unusual
33:36and the verses
33:37impenetrable
33:38but who cares
33:42according to the lyricist
33:44Tim Rice
33:45it's an attempt
33:46to process
33:47his own
33:47homosexuality
33:50and say goodbye
33:51in the past
33:55interesting
33:56but Freddy
33:57cannot confirm
33:58the text
33:59it's irreverent
34:00but guys
34:00what a piece
34:04with Night at the Opera
34:06it seems to me
34:07that you have achieved
34:08the highest moment
34:09of your career
34:10In my opinion
34:11it's the best album
34:12what have you ever done
34:15Thank you
34:15it's the album
34:16who had
34:17more successful
34:18up to now
34:18but
34:19we plan to do
34:20even better
34:22although
34:23beat Bohemian Rhapsody
34:25it won't be
34:26a business
34:26simple
34:27he wrote to me
34:28a student
34:29of occultism
34:29he wondered
34:31why do you quote
34:32Beelzebub
34:32in the song
34:34it's a question
34:35legitimate
34:37why he asks
34:38the people
34:39too many films are made
34:40I don't deal with it
34:42of occultism
34:43but it's a word
34:44that sounds good
34:47Beelzebub
34:50funny huh?
34:51interesting
34:52at the bottom of the letter
34:54there was a goat's foot
34:55No
34:55What?
34:57has the same sect
34:58there were also
34:59some pins
34:59in the letter?
35:00the next single
35:01excerpt from
35:02Ennaetat of work
35:03will be
35:04You Are My Best Friend
35:05a song
35:06much more linear
35:07by Bohemian Rhapsody
35:08but it's really
35:09this variety
35:10to make it attractive
35:11John's work
35:12the writing John
35:13Yes
35:13it's the beauty
35:14of the band
35:14we all write
35:16because of this
35:17I think the albums
35:18are so rich
35:20some songs
35:21of your albums
35:22they talk about death
35:23and difficult topics
35:24it's a case
35:25or?
35:26It's Freddy
35:27which is morbid
35:29only when I am
35:30in a good mood
35:38the first time
35:39that I went to his house
35:42Freddy lived
35:43in an apartment
35:44in the Kensington area
35:46with his girlfriend
35:47Mary Austin
35:49they had
35:50a relationship
35:51particular
35:52that went beyond
35:53to the simple bond
35:54between man and woman
35:56the house was beautiful
35:57but very small
35:58it was cramped
35:59they had invited me
36:01from them after a concert
36:02I remember we looked
36:04Bohemian Rhapsody
36:05Top of the Pops
36:06this before he
36:07came out
36:08Freddy lives together
36:10with Mary Austin
36:11for six years
36:12but in this period
36:14their relationship
36:16it cracks
36:16it was a phase of hedonism
36:18and experimentation
36:19between chemical substances
36:22sex
36:23and a style
36:25of life
36:25exaggerated
36:26inside him
36:28was raging
36:29a battle
36:31he was with Mary Austin
36:32since before we knew it
36:33despite the separation
36:35Mary and Freddy
36:36they remained
36:37very close
36:38their relationship
36:40he didn't change
36:41if not for the fact
36:42that Freddy
36:42now he had
36:43other relationships
36:45he frequented certain clubs
36:46in New York
36:47in London
36:48in France
36:49in Italy
36:50full
36:51full of young gays
36:52everyone
36:53adults
36:55naturally
36:55I have some photos
36:57of the type
36:58who frequented
36:59he already had
37:00a relationship
37:01with him
37:02even if not
37:03he still had it
37:04confessed to Mary
37:05she knew him well
37:07Freddy
37:08him of course
37:09he didn't hide
37:10or if he was hiding
37:11it was really a landslide
37:12for her
37:12it wasn't a problem
37:13when he greeted her
37:14Hi sweetie
37:15I'm going to the sombrero
37:16around Kensington
37:17it's interesting
37:18Usually
37:20in these cases
37:21the script
37:21provides that the woman
37:23gripped
37:24from doubt
37:25that the companion
37:26both gay
37:28finally
37:29discover the truth
37:30and come out of it
37:31out
37:32destroyed
37:33in case
37:35by Mary Austin
37:35it happened exactly
37:37the opposite
37:37when Freddy
37:39he confessed
37:39she tried
37:40relief
37:41he always had
37:42suspected
37:43that Freddy
37:43he was gay
37:44and when he understood it
37:45him too
37:46for her
37:46he was a great
37:47relief
37:48from that moment on
37:49their relationship
37:50it would have improved
37:51until it becomes
37:52one of the strong points
37:53in Freddy's life
37:55New Year
37:57new album
37:57will it be another success?
38:01not all the shots
38:02they hit the mark
38:04sometimes
38:05it happened
38:06that they churned out
38:07not exceptional records
38:08the album
38:10which followed
38:11A Night at the Opera
38:12And
38:13if we want
38:14derivative
38:15starting from the title
38:17A Day at the Races
38:18the quote
38:20again
38:20of a film
38:21of the Marx Brothers
38:22but
38:23also the first
38:25single extract
38:26Somebody to Love
38:27it is clearly
38:28son of
38:28Bohemian Rhapsody
38:37The criticism
38:38he thought they wanted
38:39to propose again
38:40the tested formula
38:41with Bohemian Rhapsody
38:43it's a question
38:44of perspective
38:45if for example
38:46they had published it
38:47in a collection
38:48passing through
38:49enough time
38:50between the two singles
38:51the song
38:52would have received
38:53the right tribute
38:54from critics
39:01But at the time
39:02it didn't have the impact
39:03which has today
39:08Despite the fiasco
39:10Queen
39:10they don't get discouraged
39:12and they return to the studio
39:13in 1976
39:14they affect one
39:15of their classics
39:16News of the World
39:18One thing
39:20it's undeniable
39:21Queen
39:21and Freddie Mercury
39:23they had an instinct
39:24commercial
39:25out of the ordinary
39:27Every year
39:28they were able to create
39:29a hit single
39:31which eclipsed
39:32the previous one
39:34One year was
39:35Killer Queen
39:37The one after
39:38Bohemian Rhapsody
39:39and then it arrived
39:40We Are The Champions
39:45When he heard it
39:47for the first time
39:47I was behind the wheel
39:48in Vermont
39:49in America
39:50They went on the radio
39:51We Will Rock You
39:53and then
39:54We Are The Champions
39:55exactly the same sequence
39:57which opens the album
40:03The meaning of life
40:05five-minute summary
40:06that's what that song has
40:08it's a compendium
40:09of elements
40:10that make it big
40:11a rock piece
40:18Brian put his heart and soul into it
40:20and Freddie too
40:27Brian unleashed
40:29all its power
40:36That only final one
40:37Brian's guitar
40:38it was really powerful
40:41dispelled all doubts
40:42and he threw you
40:43in the arms
40:44by We Are The Champions
40:45whose sung incision
40:47it's powerful
40:48as much as May's guitar
40:53in the text
40:56in the harmonies
40:57the declaration
40:59convinced
40:59and ambitious
41:00We Are The Champions
41:08And to this day
41:11if you are at the stadium
41:13and you feel
41:17and you know it is
41:18We Will Rock You
41:19and everyone sings
41:26Two hymns
41:27from the stadium in a row
41:30What a feat!
41:31As far as I know
41:32Freddie
41:32he had never gone
41:33at the stadium
41:34to watch a match
41:35but he looked
41:36the legs
41:36of players on TV
41:38They were very good
41:40to write hymns
41:40which involved
41:41the public
41:42they dragged him
41:44exciting him
41:45and freeing him
41:46from inhibitions
41:47During the concerts
41:49the fans
41:49they could unleash themselves
41:53At the start
41:54of the 80s
41:54everyone wants
41:55see Queen live
41:56The band beats
41:57all the records
41:58No concert
41:59had ever recorded
42:00such a number
42:01of tickets sold
42:04In Sao Paulo, Brazil
42:06131,000 people
42:07they assist
42:08at a show
42:09exceptional
42:12On every tour
42:14Queen
42:14they always added
42:16something new
42:17and irreverent
42:18for joy
42:18of the fans
42:20Without fail
42:21the public
42:22he was going crazy
42:24Freddie was
42:24a showman
42:25par excellence
42:26At the dawn
42:28of popular music
42:29or pop
42:30the two stars
42:32most famous
42:32they were
42:33Enrico Caruso
42:34and Al Jolson
42:35And that's why
42:37the voice of both
42:39it resonated
42:39strong
42:40and clear
42:41until the last
42:42theater files
42:43without amplification
42:54Freddie had
42:56that kind of voice
43:04He went up on stage
43:05and held in his fist
43:06the public
43:07he had something
43:08special
43:09all the more so
43:10When
43:11afterwards
43:12their songs
43:13they became
43:15of the hymns
43:15I don't know
43:17Nobody
43:17that he came out
43:19disappointed
43:19from a concert
43:20of Queen
43:21Certain
43:22I am
43:22a little biased
43:23because in the end
43:24I became
43:25a fan
43:26it's hard
43:28remain objective
43:29they wanted to give
43:30the best of oneself
43:31and the longest
43:32possible
43:33and I believe
43:34that they succeeded
43:35I'm sure of it
43:38the sober
43:40Freddie Mercury
43:41does his job
43:41timid entrance
43:42on the scene
43:47seeing Freddie
43:50shine
43:52like at Live Aid
43:56it made you think
43:57That's good
43:59who uses his power
44:00for the greater good
44:02think
44:03if it had been
44:03a Hitler
44:04a populist leader
44:06a demagogue
44:07with a similar charisma
44:09and a crowd
44:10of 72,000 people
44:12that hangs
44:12from your lips
44:13you can get everything
44:15think
44:15to the famous
44:16clap your hands
44:17by Radio Gaga
44:34or you have a blow
44:35and answer
45:03he commanded her
45:05a wand
45:05he said
45:06standing
45:07and everyone obeyed
45:09they didn't think
45:10they performed
45:31Freddie was a person
45:33very affectionate
45:35and very kind
45:36he always made sure
45:38that his acquaintances
45:39they were well
45:40he was very thoughtful
45:42he loved children
45:43he loved people
45:44and if you were a friend of his
45:46or a relative
45:47then it was wonderful
45:49as it was wonderful
45:51with his fans
45:53with the fans
45:55he entered immediately
45:56in tune
45:56and that's why
45:58who enjoyed
45:58of such an ascendant
45:59on the crowd
46:00he loved
46:01the public
46:02and the public
46:03he reciprocated
46:06she on stage
46:08he is more than fluent
46:09as long as it will continue
46:11In short
46:12I strut
46:13just a little bit
46:14despite an agenda
46:15packed with concerts
46:16Queen
46:17they continue to work
46:19in the studio
46:19experimenting
46:20new sounds
46:21for an audience
46:22increasingly numerous
46:23Another One Bites the Dust
46:25It's taken from the album
46:26The Game
46:28it wasn't supposed to become
46:30a single
46:31it was already there
46:31Crazy Little Thing
46:32with Love
46:35but as he said
46:37Michael Jackson
46:38has the strength
46:39to become
46:40a single
46:47the song
46:48dominates the charts
46:49Americans
46:50for 31 weeks
46:51sells
46:52several million
46:54of copies
46:56for six months
46:57rampant everywhere
47:02for a brief moment
47:06Queen
47:07they reigned
47:08on prizes
47:08in the world
47:09of rock
47:13on the wings
47:13of success
47:14Queen
47:15they continue
47:15to experiment
47:16then there was
47:18the disaster
47:19by Hot Space
47:25Hot Space
47:26it's the proof
47:26that inside
47:27of Queen
47:27there are some
47:28musical divergences
47:29the band decides
47:30to take
47:31a break
47:31of reflection
47:32and everyone
47:33he dedicates himself
47:34to their own projects
47:35solo
47:36the occasion
47:37that brings them back
47:38together on stage
47:39Live Aid
47:40in 1985
47:41it's a performance
47:42that will pass
47:43to history
47:43at the time
47:44of Ive Aid
47:45I had children
47:46small
47:47and I remember
47:49to have brought them
47:50at school
47:51for a refreshment
47:52at the end of the year
47:52they had organized themselves
47:54with many chairs
47:56and a television
47:58to watch
47:59Live Aid
47:59otherwise
48:00he wouldn't have gone
48:02Nobody
48:03when it touched
48:04to Queen
48:04everyone stopped
48:07to watch them
48:08I confess
48:09that I poured
48:10a little tear
48:11Why
48:12they were
48:13amazing
48:14the Freddy
48:16of Live Aid
48:17it's probably
48:18the frontman
48:19more compelling
48:20that I have ever seen
48:27we were wondering
48:28amazed
48:29but did you see
48:31what a thing
48:32incredible
48:43they steal the scene from us
48:45the other artists said
48:47wounded in their pride
48:48a classic
48:50they steal the scene from us
48:53and it was true
49:00the crowd was invisible
49:02And
49:03on the monitor
49:04we saw
49:06Freddy
49:06improvise
49:08a duet
49:09with the cameraman
49:10of the BBC
49:26they stole the show
49:27to everyone
49:28live
49:29Nobody
49:30he was able
49:30to stand up to him
49:32Queen
49:33they seem to have returned
49:34those of the past
49:35but unfortunately
49:36it's not like that
49:38it was a moment
49:40key
49:40of my life
49:42in my relationship
49:43with Freddy
49:44and as a homosexual
49:49I was just
49:50returned
49:50from the United States
49:52we met
49:53in a place
49:54I asked him
49:55if it had been given
49:56a calm down
49:56to the light
49:57of the new disease
49:58that at the time
49:59it didn't have a name yet
50:02he smiled at me
50:03in a theatrical way
50:04and he said
50:04Dear
50:05my philosophy
50:06and I don't care
50:07I do everything
50:08with everyone
50:12and I
50:13I had
50:15a bad feeling
50:17a strange feeling
50:19it happened to me
50:20only twice
50:21in life
50:25he understood that we would have
50:26lost Freddy
50:35to look at it
50:37he seemed calm
50:40but maybe he had understood
50:44it was already too late
50:55I believe
50:56that many knew
50:58who was sick
51:01no one knew
51:02the details
51:04Exactly
51:06what he had
51:07and how serious it was
51:09if not
51:10in the end
51:13we sensed that something
51:15it didn't work
51:15but we didn't talk about it
51:17he told us
51:18just a few months
51:18before dying
51:22I know that Freddy
51:23he took the test
51:24only at the end
51:25of the 80s
51:25and showed
51:27the first symptoms
51:28only in the second half
51:29of the 80s
51:31but
51:32the period
51:33of incubation
51:34it lasts ten years
51:35on average
51:35between the contagion
51:37and the demonstration
51:38of the symptoms
51:41Therefore
51:42if Freddy
51:43he had the first symptoms
51:45in the end
51:46of the 80s
51:46and if his
51:48it was a case
51:49average
51:49it means
51:50which he had contracted
51:51the infection
51:52in the end
51:52of the 70s
51:54a period
51:55in which
51:55had shown
51:56a great exuberance
51:58and longing for life
52:02think about
52:02Those Were the Days
52:04of Our Lives
52:05the video came out
52:06and everyone said
52:07that's not Freddy
52:11he knew it
52:12who was dying
52:14it was heartbreaking
52:18it's difficult
52:20watch
52:20those last videos
52:21Why
52:22the beauty
52:24by Freddy
52:24it was fading away
52:25in the end
52:27of the video
52:28Of
52:28Those Were the Days
52:29of Our Lives
52:30Freddy
52:30look into the lens
52:32and says
52:32I still love you
52:42we searched
52:44to support him
52:45at that moment
52:46and he was
52:48incredibly
52:49brave
52:50at that time
52:51the paparazzi
52:51they followed him everywhere
52:53and the tabloids
52:54they were churning out conjectures
52:55on a weekly basis
52:56every time
52:57which appeared
52:58in public
53:00the strange thing
53:01is that
53:01I didn't speak
53:03with Freddy
53:03for about a year
53:04but the news
53:06they were filtering
53:07I had
53:08AIDS
53:09he was dying
53:10he was in bed
53:11I decided to go
53:13to find
53:13but I postponed
53:14and it was too late
53:16in the week
53:17where I had to
53:18seeing him die
53:20November 23rd
53:221991
53:24when it spread
53:25the news
53:26that Freddy Mercury
53:27he had AIDS
53:28it didn't surprise anyone
53:30more than that
53:31why its decline
53:32it was obvious
53:33the thing that hit
53:35more consciences
53:36I believe
53:36is that everyone
53:37they realized
53:38that this disease
53:39he didn't look
53:40in front of no one
53:41he made no exceptions
53:43of any kind
53:43he also got sick
53:45who was rich
53:45and famous
53:46it was terrible news
53:48all the more so since then
53:49Freddy
53:49he died the next day
53:50the death of Freddy Mercury
53:52it shocks the world
53:54of music
53:54Freddy's death
53:56it was a real tragedy
53:58he was gone
54:00a gifted man
54:01of a talent
54:03extraordinary
54:04the people
54:05he left flowers
54:06in front of his house
54:07I went there too
54:08in the middle of the crowd
54:10and I poured
54:11a few tears
54:13I left a bouquet
54:14of flowers
54:15the ticket
54:15he said
54:16I miss you
54:17with love
54:18Sophie
54:20he would have understood
54:21it was a moment
54:23very sad
54:23we all thought
54:25that it was a loss
54:26immense
54:26he still had
54:28many things
54:29to say
54:30he still had
54:31so much beautiful music
54:33to give to the world
54:35he's gone
54:36too soon
54:40when Freddy
54:41he died
54:41we realized
54:43than it was
54:44famous
54:44and loved
54:45all over the world
54:46because there wasn't one
54:47one country

54:50when Freddy
54:51he died
54:51it was the end

54:55before it happens
54:55they put them back to work
54:56Paul Rogers
54:58it was a choice
54:59interesting
54:59for the band
55:00the voice was beautiful
55:02and the concerts
55:03they were fine
55:04but he didn't have to
55:05to be someone else
55:06Freddy
55:07it wasn't that
55:07the intent
55:08it closes
55:09a chapter
