Freddie Mercury, who was the lead singer and main songwriter of Queen,
died aged 45 from an Aids-related condition in 1991. He would have
turned 60 on 5 September 2006

I think Queen are one of the best british bands and there are lots of things to love about Freddie Mercury.  I saw a Queen tribute band once, they were fab and the "I want to break free" video was one of my favourites as a child though I find the song very sad now.  We used "Its a kind of magic" as the finale song for a school play a few years ago, the kids loved it.

I loved Queen and still play their albums a lot now. They made some really classic songs.

I love the one where he dresses up as a woman. The Americans apparently couldn't handle it and the song flopped over there.

McFly have done several awful covers now, as have Westlife and just about every other boy/girlband that ever existed.

It's a good video. I think Roger Taylor looked great as the schoolgirl!
