    The only thing YOU remember about him, you mean. Speak for yourself when you speak of ignorance. Some of us actually recognize greatness.

    I agree with Jessie. Freddie is a legend and was a great musician. When he passed away the music industry lost a great singer. No other musician could take his place as lead singer for Queen. Queen is and always will be my favorite band. One of my favorite songs is Teo Torriate (Let Us Cling Together). It's a very beautiful song. Freddie lives on in his music and his songs!
