Default Freddie Mercury tribute on his birthday.

September 5th. One year older, missed ten times more.
A star in life, a legend in death. "Lover of life, singer of songs". This is my humble tribute. Took 141 Andreses to do you justice yet I still came up short.

This is the least I can do, darling. On your 66th birthday, this is my gift to you.

Cool

I saw Queen @ MSG on the "We Are The Champions" tour. The roof came down when Freddie donned a Yankees cap to sing the tour title song! The Yanks had won the World Series just weeks before the show.

considering how hard 'Bohemian Rhapsody' is to sing.. with its vocal range and all... check out some unassuming Hungarian guy singing it on a talent show..

FM is pretty popular among current HS students, sort of in the vein of Betty White, Tony Bennett and Frankie Valli

Should be an interesting film about Freddie with Sacha Baron Cohen in the lead role.

I was too young to see Queen with Freddie, but have become a huge fan. I saw them a few years ago with Paul Rogers and can comfortably say Queen is not Queen without Freddie. I sincerly wish I had not seen the band without Freddie. Awesome job Andres. Long live Freddie Mercury!
