1980 Tehran, Iran. I'm 8 years old and I see Freddie Mercury and Queen for the first time in my life at my aunt's place. She had bought a brand new Sony Betamax C7 video recorder and was playing nonstop music all day. This song came up and when Brian started playing my dad yelled at me "Turn that noisy music down!!!!" I did as I was told and watched the rest of video without sound, of course. But I committed it to my memory so that one day in the future I would go back and watch/listen to it again. I had no idea who these guys were, but I really liked the beginning of the song and I only watched the video that one time......Flash forward to 1986 Wuppertal, Germany. I'm 14 years old and my dance teacher is playing "We will Rock You" to which he is choreographing my dance steps. I ask him, what song/band is this, he said "the Greatest Rock Band of all time, Queen". He then handed me their Greatest Hits Album coverā¦ā¦and my heart skipped a beat when I saw Freddie's picture. I instantly knew who he was. I cannot describe the euphoria and exhilaration in that moment in time, when I discovered this band. I couldnāt believe my luck. Yes, luck!!! I was lucky that I discovered this band at that moment in my life. They reshaped the rest of my teenage years/life and I have been a fan ever since. I will listen to their music till I die, and even beyond grave, because Iām sure their greatest hits are being played in both heaven and hell.

My dad saw Queen live during The Game Tour at the young age of 10 with his brother back in 1980 in Vancouver he remembers Freddie asking people what he thought of his moustache and people cheered and booed at the same time
to which he replied āi donāt give a fuck, itās my moustache and Iām keeping it the way it isā

2:07 Freddie singing. Brian singing. Roger singing. Deacy is way too cool to sing.

Things I love about this video:
1) Brian, John, & Roger are dressed nicely and Freddie is dressed in a t-shirt
2) at 2:10 Deacon refuses to sing & continues silently playing his base guitar
3) Freddie jumping onto Taylor's drums
4) Freddie stealing May's guitar & throwing it back at him

You know when you thought you found your favorite queen song of all time only to find another great song from them and only to find another great song from them and only to find another great song from them......
