Still, Mercury was clearly self-conscious about his teeth, frequently covering his top row with his upper lip or hand while on camera. He refused to get his teeth fixed, despite having four extra molars in the back of his mouth, for fear that doing so would alter his singing voice. Mercury’s voice was said to have had a four-octave vocal range and was the subject of a 2016 study that sought to better understand it. Queen’s last album was also recorded there. Today, a giant statue of Mercury overlooks a lake in Montreux, Switzerland, where Mercury moved after buying Mountain Recording Studio. He began writing Queen’s most famous song, “Bohemian Rhapsody,” while he was still in college, calling it “The Cowboy Song” at the time the few lyrics he’d come up with: “Mama, just killed a man…” His favorite artists were Aretha Franklin and Jimi Hendrix. Ten of the 17 songs on Queen’s 1981 “Greatest Hits'' collection-the band’s bestselling album-were written by Mercury. Hutton was with Mercury for seven years before the star’s death Austin, Mercury’s first serious relationship, was told by the musician where to bury his ashes. He had two remarkable relationships, one with Mary Austin and one with Jim Hutton, both complicated and both long-term. He was both flamboyant and shy outspoken and intensely private. From working as a baggage handler at Heathrow airport to hiding his HIV diagnosis from the public until just before his death, Mercury’s life was filled with adventure, publicity, and perhaps above all a clear duality. To celebrate Mercury’s outsized life, Stacker compiled a list of 25 elements from his biography that many fans don’t know. Queen’s two-night run at London’s Wembley Stadium in ’86 is still universally perceived as standing among the most unforgettable live rock events in history. His band stands as among the world’s most successful of all time, with record sales topping 300 million worldwide. It was like film score - but in reverse.Queen frontman Freddie Mercury was a prolific writer, an introverted empath, and an iconic musician. When we were finished we all stepped back and listened as objectively as we could, imagining what sort of story was being told in order to identify the best places to film. That catalyst came from a piece of classical music - one that had such a "storybook feel" to it that we gleaned inspiration from it: Saint-Saëns' "Aquarium" from his Suite "Carnival of the Animals." It's an incredibly beautiful and transportive piece. When writing a song sometimes you just need a little spark. Īs we began our arrangement of One Direction's "Story of My Life" we wanted it to feel like each note of the music was a word in a vivid story being told.
