I was driving home this morning after dropping the kids off at school and one of my favorite stations played back to back Queen songs... I was transported back in time to the days when I was in junior high school and my 7th grade glee class sang We Will Rock You - while stomping our feet and clapping our hands....
In high school in the early 80's I was a true fan.... Freddie Mercury was an amazingly talented man - his last concert in 1986 and his death November of 1991 left the world mourning his loss...
First song on the radio this morning was...
This song Bohemian Rhapsody was a hit when it first came out in 1975 AND right after Freddie's death in 1992.. I truly don't believe another band is capable of playing this song... this good..
Second song today was....
Fat Bottomed Girls.. Haven't heard this in forever - so hearing it this AM - made me smile..
I love Queen. I think Freddie's death was the first time I had ever cried over the death of a celebrity.
ReplyDeleteWe will rock you is certainly one of the timeless ones! How fun is that??????

Fun to think back...
