Queen‘s Brian May has opened up about Freddie Mercury‘s last days and reflected on how he “never ever saw him cry”.May appeared in a new interview with AXS TV, and discussed the legacy of the band and how the group essentially gave it up after the passing of the iconic frontman.“We’d always said that if one of us goes, that’s it.
So Roger and I both went out kind of grieving to the max and saying it’s over, we don’t even want to talk about it for quite a long time,” the guitarist shared.He then went on to speak about Mercury and what he was like during his final days. “We made the last album, the ‘Made In Heaven’ album with the tracks that Freddie had left us to play with and it became a real labour of love because he left some lovely little bits and pieces.“He was very undramatic about it,” May shared, adding: “I never ever saw him cry or go you know self-pity.
He never did that, he was like ‘Let’ just do it, lets keep doing stuff. Freddy was always inspiring. If he was here now, we’d be doing what we always do I’m sure.”May also discussed Adam Lambert’s role within the band and added that the singer always provides a fresh view on things and is not afraid to be vocal about things they should try. “The songs are not fossils, they’re alive and evolving with Adam which is great.
Sometimes he blows my mind,” May said.In other news, Queen Extravaganza, the official tribute band of rock legends Queen, have announced that they are set to embark on a UK and Ireland tour in 2025.The tour, which will see them visit 25 venues next year, will mark the 50th anniversary of ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’.
