CELEBRITY | 23 Years Ago


23 years ago we said goodbye to Freddie Mercury, although sometimes it feels like he is still here.

Queen continue to tour, paying homage to Mercury with Adam Lambert and previously unreleased tracks featuring Freddie's vocals are now also available.

You can visit You Tube, FreddieMercury.com or many other sites to watch concerts and music videos featuring Freddie at his finest, or interviews with the always outrageous legend.

I remember listening to Queen, my home lit only by candles, on the evening of Nov. 24, 1991 as I cried over the world's tremendous loss. I would cry, laugh and pay my respects shortly later, when a star-studded group of musicians played a tribute concert to Freddie, beamed live across the planet.

Freddie Mercury's persona and success were grander than life and still continue to be, 23 years after this remarkable voice was silenced.
