I was too young to realize what "Queen" meant. It would have been great if he was an openly gay singer at the time. But he was quite gifted nonetheless.

As a young gay activist I remember the denials of the early days.

But he made up for that with this:- Queen - I Want To Break Free - YouTube

That was indeed sweet. As one of the comments said, they paid homage to Queen without trying to outdo them. Nice.

I started listening to Queen in '92, actually -- I was 21 at the time. Now I'm 40, and the music is just as amazing after almost 20 years.

While I had no interest in Queen + Paul Rodgers, Brian and Roger have done a great job at keeping the band relevant without Freddie.

I wonder what they would have come up with, had Freddie not passed. He was amazing.

Love me some Queen. Been listening to them quite a bit in the car lately.
