I don't talk to everybody, so they don't really know the real me. I don't think anybody will...
When I'm dead are they going to remember me ? I don't really think about it, it's up to them. When I'm dead, who cares ? I don't.
I think Queen songs are pure escapism, like going to see a good film.
I'm very emotional; I think I may go mad in several years' time.
You can be anything you want to be, just turn yourself into anything you think that you could ever be.
I'm not afraid to speak out, and say things that I want to do, or do the things that I want to do, so um, I think in the end, being natural, and being, being actually genuine is what wins.
I think my melodies are superior to my lyrics.
Oh, I was not made for heaven. No, I don't want to go to heaven. Hell is much better. Think of all the interesting people you're going to meet down there!
But, you know, we spent two years putting our act together.
The concept of Queen is to be regal and majestic. Glamour is part of us, and we want to be dandy.
You're headed for disaster cos you never read the signs Too much love will kill you every time
One night Roger was in a foul mood and he threw his entire bloody drumset across the stage. The thing only just missed me - I might have been killed.
I have fun with my clothes onstage; it's not a concert you're seeing, it's a fashion show.
The lavish presentation appeals to me, and I've got to convince the others.
