how he die
hello
freddie mercury died of pneumonia complications due to AIDs . he was diagnosed some time after Live Aid in 1986 , and he pushed on , not failing to deliver his voice .
is it a metaphor ?
the band queen was originally a rock band called ' smile ' consisting of the following members : drummer roger taylor , guitarist brian may , and lead singer / bassist tim staffell . they released an album and announced their debut in 1969 but eventually tim left the band , hoping to find a more successful band . roger and freddie bulsara were dormmates and even sold clothing at a secondhand stal at Kensington Market . freddie offered to join the band , and they'd gone through 6 bassists before finding john deacon . freddie came up with the name queen and the song ' my fairy king ' inspired him to use the last name mercury , as ' mother mercury ' reminded him of himself . on june 27 , 1971 , queen played for the first time .
\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @readyfreddie is it a metaphor ? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) YES . it was a metaphor . roger states that he wrote the song for a ' friend who loved his car ' . HOWEVER , a PARTICULAR SINGER WHOM I SHALL NOT NAME kept ragging on about it meaning something else entirely .
