"Freddie came to me looking a little nervous; 'Mum, I'm not quite sure how to tell you this but I'm not going to be Farrokh Bulsara anymore. From this day on, I'm going to be known as Freddie Mercury, but I want you to know that this is the name I'll have on stage, and back home, I will be the boy you always knew. Are you okay with this?' And I said to him, 'as long as you love me and respect me, everything will be alright.' He said, 'That will always be mum!'" - Jer Bulsara ❤️ #FreddieMercury ❤️

At Freddie’s birthday party 🤗 "My heart sank when I got to the flat and saw all the expensive birthday presents that Freddie’s friends had provided. I hadn’t been sure what to give him. I didn’t have much money to buy him anything, so I decided I’d give him a pressed four-leaf clover. It wasn’t a real one, of course, but it had been given to me many years ago by a friend’s father who had made it himself. I was too embarrassed to give Freddie his lucky clover in front of everyone, so I called him into the bedroom. 'I’m sorry, this is all I can afford to give you,' I said, passing him a small folded piece of tissue paper. When he opened it up he was thrilled. He kissed me then ran into the sitting room with it. 'Look at the gorgeous present Jim’s giving me,' he told everyone, and I blushed. Freddie seemed delighted with it because he knew I had given him something from the heart." - Jim Hutton ❤️ #FreddieMercury 🍀🎁

Freddie Mercury's final performance in the US 🇺🇸 This is a legendary moment from Saturday Night Live (SNL) on September 25, 1982. This iconic broadcast marked Freddie Mercury's very last live performance in America as the frontman of Queen. Despite battling severe vocal strain after a grueling tour, Freddie delivered a raw, powerful, and mesmerizing performance with pure grit and charisma. ⚡️👑 A heartbreakingly beautiful piece of rock history that still gives me goosebumps every single time. 💖✨ #FreddieMercury #Queen #SNL #SaturdayNightLive

"When we made the record, then it was 'all we hear is radio caca,' because Roger wrote it. D'you know what 'caca' is? If you have any French friends, 'caca' means 'shit,' so Roger wrote it because his little boy was saying, 'it's caca, it's caca,' because he'd heard some grown-ups talking, so it was called Radio Caca. But our record company said, 'you cannot do this! It has to be Radio Ga Ga,' which is the later lyric, so we changed the title but we didn't change the record, so if you go back and listen to Radio Ga Ga, you'll hear 'all we hear is radio Caca.'" — Sir Brian May 😅😂📻 #RogerTaylor #Queen

Ohh Freddie… 🥹 I love U 🥲 "Freddie was very weak for the filming of the video for 'I’m Going Slightly Mad.' He had to be caked in make-up and wore a thick black wig.There were also some penguins there for the shoot and in quiet moments Freddie took himself off to be with them and give them water. Under studio lights they were baking and, ill as he was, he was only concerned for their welfare. 'It’s far too hot for them,' he complained. It was really a distraction to keep his mind off his own problems." - Jim Hutton #FreddieMercury 🐧🐧🐧

Freddie infused the rich, powerful spirit of Aretha Franklin's gospel into "Somebody to Love," yet it's the raw, stripped-back loneliness of his lyrics that truly hits hard. When he pours his soul into a line like "I just gotta get out of this prison cell,"—it completely wrecks me. A timeless masterpiece born from pure vulnerability… ✨💖 #ArethaFranklin #FreddieMercury #SomebodyToLove #Queen

Sobbing… 😭 "Did we know it would be the last time? No. Freddie said something like, 'Oh. I can't fucking do this anymore, my whole body's wracked with pain!' But he normally said things like that at the end of a tour, so l don't think we took it seriously, really." - Dr. Brian May #FreddieMercury ✨✨✨

"I often saw Freddie preparing to go on stage. Swigging down a few vodkas, he'd warm up his voice with a run of vocal exercises. His valet would have his stage clothes laid out for him. After one last puff on a cigarette, he would rush through his door to the stage to the cheers of Queen's adoring fans. He was like a hurricane. 'When I'm on stage, I become very different,' he said. 'There are no half measures. You have to be resilient to be a rock star, you can't falter once.'" - David Wigg #FreddieMercury 💛

"'We Are The Champions' isthe most egotistical and arrogant song I've ever written. I was thinking about football when I wrote it. I wanted a participation song, something the fans could latch on to. It was aimed at the masses. I wanted to write something that everyone could sing along to, like a football chant. And at the same time, I thought it would be nice to have a winning song that's meant for everybody. We said We are the champions, but that doesn't mean it's Us: it's for everyone. I can imagine people going to a game and, if their team wins, they can sing it - a winning song for everyone. I thought we'd see how they took it. It worked a treat." - Freddie Mercury 😊🏆

"Genuine Contact": The Night Everything Changed 🥹🤝 Sir Brian May said: "Freddie and I learnt this Hungarian folk song, we spent three days learning the bloody thing, and that was the turning point of the gig. The fans hadn't known how to react, but then they realised we were serious: they knew that we knew where we were, and that we really cared where we were. The genuine audience reaction was deafening at that point but that doesn't really come over in the film. It all changed then it was genuine contact." 💖🌹 #Queen #MagicTour 👑✨ #FreddieMercury #BrianMay

Q: Was the call-and-response vocal which Freddie did with the audience at Live Aid pre-planned or did it happen spontaneously? 🤔 Bri: We didn't plan it. It was always up to Freddie, whether he wanted to do it, and he just felt confident that it was the right moment. ✨ Freddie did have an aptitude, it has to be said—he just could connect. He connected with everybody. 💖 As soon as he went, "Ey yo," that was it—the place imploded. 🔥 I can remember looking over at Roger, thinking, seems to have worked! 👑 #Queen #LiveAid #FreddieMercury #BrianMay
