The name of Freddie Mercury is very well known not only to fans of the Queen group, but to all lovers of good music. He has not been with us for almost 30 years, but it does not prevent him from remaining among the world’s most popular performers. He was the real idol of millions.

Freddie Mercury is known as the author of many compositions of the Queen group, of which he was a soloist for many years. In 2008, he was named one of the greatest rock performers and the owner of a unique voice in the history of modern music.

He was the best of the best. Freddy was seriously addicted to tennis, ice hockey and boxing.

At the age of twelve, Mercury became the organizer and member of the «Psychi» group. They performed wherever they could, including all school activities.

Every year, Mercury expanded his repertoire, using the compositions of other groups for it. In 1980, Freddie radically worked on changing his image. He cut his hair as short as possible, but grew a lush mustache. The musical direction of his compositions also changed, he began to work in the disco-funk style.

The peak of the musical career of the Queen group and its soloist came on July 13, 1985, when they were included in the list of artists who were honored to perform at Wembley Stadium. The audience warmly greeted Paul McCartney, Elton John, Sting, David Bowie. But after the performance of Freddie Mercury, the audience had a real euphoria. The stadium gathered 75 thousand people who were waiting for the performance of the famous singer. This concert made Mercury a legend in rock music.

The last composition of Freddie Mercury, which he recorded before his death, was called «Mother’s Love». He understood that there was very little left to live, and in his work he used a drum machine. The last verse of the composition was performed by Brian May. In 1995, the group «Made in Heaven» released a new album, which included the farewell composition of Mercury.
