Mother Love - Queen (Music Video) [HQ]

I suggest to watch the video until the end!

The myth of Freddie Mercury, the charm of the charismatic leader of the London rock band born in 1971, the singer who animates stages and stadiums with his gestures enlivened by sudden thunderbolts full of inner truth. It was all written in the face that it was reality and not fiction. Freddie thought he was what he showed in his performances, he was loaded with trappings as artists do but talent was released liquid conveyed by a desire to be there and live to that extent. "You can be anything you want, just turn into everything you think you can be," he said.

His life, however, made him come across a bad disease that killed him young and withdrew him from the recording rooms while he was finishing his song "Mother Love". It was May 22, 1991 when Freddie, exhausted, decided to stop the work he was doing, thinking of returning in the following days but never returned. He could not complete the recording of the last verse - which in fact is done by Brian May. “He said“ I can't do it, I have to go and rest, then I'll come back and finish it ”… but he never came back,” the guitarist said. As is well known, Freddie no longer had the opportunity to complete his work because shortly after he returned to London in the safe and maternal environment he needed to leave in peace.

"Mother Love" is a sweet and melodic single that with a sense of mysterious foreboding accompanies the singer to define his last will and hope.

"I've walked too long in this lonely lane / I've had enough of this same old game - sings Freddie Mercury with the heartbreaking and moving words of Mother Love - I'm a man of the world and they say that I ' m strong / but my heart is heavy, and my hope is gone. / Out in the city, in the old world outside / I don't want pity, just a safe place to hide / Mama please, let me back inside".

Freddie Mercury, the mythical performer, melts away from his vicious vicissitudes and as in a cry for help and redemption he invokes his mother, the only one from whom he feels the need to receive love. He has nothing to which he wants to cling but her, the only woman and person in whom he has boundless trust and hope of a certain welcome. There is neither success, nor money, nor everything else to which he has devolved his entire existence but only a visceral and plaintive desire for peace and emotional warmth.

Mother Love is featured on the posthumous album Made in Heaven, released by Queen on November 7, 1995. The song was actually written by Brian May as well - as in the case of The Show Must Go On - but the guitarist tried to describe all the sensations that Freddie Mercury could have felt in those last moments.

The world's greatest voice.
The world's greatest frontman.
The world's greatest band.
The world is a much sadder place without Freddie

When Freddie died it was the biggest loss to music ever.

[missiecarroll]

Such a beautiful song. Nearly brought tears to my eyes knowing this was Freddies last song. Brian May did a wonderful job finishing it. Freddie is missed and Queen Rules!

[albrecht]

He was so sick but still had the voice of an angel, Rest In Peace Freddie,

[samantharossiter]

I think this song speaks to all of us about our mortality and the end of life - when our lives are coming to an end most of us take a step back and reflect on our lives our triumphs and mistakes and missed opportunities but all that matters is that we are with our loved ones who love us equally, the holding of the hand; the kiss on the forehead; no pain just complete peace; I know from being a palliative nurse these things are When we are dying we don’t need drama or crying over the bed we just need to be held in those final precious moments - we love you Freddie - your legacy lives on 🌈❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌈🌈🌈

He sang this song, while dying from AIDS, better than most new artists can sing in their prime. Just think about that. He was only a few months away from death and sounded this good.

[Sonneteer]

How did Freddie find the strength to sing with such power and meaning when he was so desperately ill?
His voice evokes a spiritual emotion which soars throughout the soul.
Forever loved.

Спасибо Господу за огромную честь лицезреть его творение

[RXS.]

He never came back to the studio thats why May sang the last verse.

[rozufdn]

Это не человек, а космос! Каждый раз плачу, когда слушаю его песни!

[aaronkoeppe]

Brian: freddie was singing in the studio and then told us I'm not going to be able to finish this. I'm going to go home and get some rest I'll be back and we will knock this out darling. And that was the last time I saw him

Roger: I lived down the street was heading out the door when he got a call from Peter freestone saying "don't bother coming he is already gone." I just broke down crying because I didn't get to say goodbye.

[captainmitchell]

I don't think Brian ever got enough credit for his vocals.
Such a beautiful song

[strawberryjam]

Brian would fill in for Freddie on stage when he ran out of voice. And in this song, also when he ran out of life. ❤

[whatswithgus]

The last vocal Freddie ever recorded, and he still managed to sing with that big strong voice in that tricky upper register at 1:50. Truly amazing! Still sad that he is no longer with us.

[Jan-ifvw]

So sad and hauntingly beautiful, brings tears to my eyes. Brian did a lovely last verse and I know that Freddie is looking down from heaven on all of us. Rest in peace beautiful man, your memory and music is eternal. You are safe in my heart....

[jvstice]

This song, Freddie's last ever sang, is a testament to the legacy he left behind. He performed a ballad while dying, and he died enjoying life to its fullest. Even as we are 30+ years removed from his departure, we still remember him fondly.

[sherryhammerstein]

Freddie done this song beautifully it was written by Roger Taylor but it was fitting for Freddie at his time nearing his death. Freddie Mercury is a Legend. Love you and miss you but you live in your music forever ❤️
