 Freddie Mercury - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Freddie Mercury's performance at Live Aid, with the song Radio Ga Ga, has recently been voted by various artists, journalists and music industry executives as the greatest live performance of all time in rock music [6].
Mercury composed ten of the songs on the original "Queen's Greatest Hits" album, including many of the band's most creative pieces, such as "Bohemian Rhapsody", "Killer Queen", "We Are the Champions", "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" and "Somebody to Love".
The theme song for the show was Mercury's solo song "I Was Born to Love You" (newer version).

Freddie Mercury´s Bohemian Rhapsody lasted for 9 weeks at number 1 in the British charts; and in 1991, in the year of his death, that song was once again at number 1 in the UK charts!
Freddie Mercury became worldwide famous as a singer, songwriter and instrumentalist (piano) with the band Queen (founded in 1970).
Freddie always tried to give the other band members the feeling to be truly as important to be as he was - which they are/were without doubt- and exactly this is, what held the band together for more than 20 years.

Freddie soon discovered his love for art and music, both subjects that he explored voraciously (he began taking piano lessons around this time), putting his newly found piano talent to use as he played in rock & roll bands with friends.

The authors focuses on the complex emotional balance artists (and freddie in particular) keep with art, love, sex, and life itself, which then obviously influences their relationship and choices of friends and lovers.
