Freddie was certainly one of the SUPERSTARS...along with people like Elvis, Meatloaf, Cher, Tina turner........they all have something special that others can't really match.

Freddie yes...but Meatloaf?!?!

I recall watching an interview with Freddie Mercury once where he said the reason why he smoked was to get a gravelly voice.

I don't think his voice was very gravelly though IMHO.
It was more like awesome.

I love Freddie! And I agree, he had the greatest voice. I miss him.

I actually want to get one of those figurines of Freddie in his Wembely look.

The show must go on!

Have you guys seen this Freddie Mercury impersonator named Gary Mullen? If you close your eyes, you can almost imagine it's Freddie singing.

Wish they'd come to Canada.
