Oh, sure, I know Queen. Here's a nifty, not-at-all-devastating fact for you: Brian just wanted Freddie to be loved. It's everywhere.

It's in his dislike for Don't Stop Me Now, a song that—in Brian's mind—represented drug use and intense partying that was leading Freddie away from the band, toward people who didn't care about his wellbeing. It's in Brian saying he regrets not looking after Freddie better.

It's in his writing Save Me to give Freddie an outlet for his heartbreak, but also subtly tell him, "Hey, you're a loving partner. You deserve one in return."

It's in Brian helping Freddie write It's a Hard Life, with expressing his heartbreak once again. It's in Brian watching the video for that song and interpreting the setting as a depiction of Freddie's emotionally unfulfilling personal life during the Münich era.

It's in Brian stressing that Freddie was always in serious, monogamous relationships, searching for the right person. It's in Brian defending Freddie's relationship with Jim and calling it loving.

It's in Brian having a soft spot for Don't Try So Hard, a song representing Freddie finally securing his dream relationship.

BRIAN JUST WANTED HIM TO BE LOVED.

My favorite thing on this earth is how in almost all the music videos for The Monkees Mike is just standing there looking like he is working the longest customer service shift of his life and his boss just told him he has to stay overtime again

HAPPY FRIDAY! ENJOY THE TUNES.

you know... in my opinion, talent is being able to name the queen song by listening to the first 2-3 seconds of the track.

you can tell paul had it from the very beginning. he was on the ed sullivan show about to perform in front of millions of americans for the first time. the others still seemed reserved but paul mccartney came out fucking bouncing bobbing his jelly round head long anime girl legs giving disney knees before either of those concepts were a thing singing oh yeah i'll tell you something. and he did. without care. through grainy static filled screens he captured the souls of thousands of women so fast that 60 years later i am typing this on tumblr. just raw star power.

i don't think innuendo by queen gets the love it deserves from people. it's so good. it's like a play in 3 acts. it's 6 minutes and 33 seconds of the most banger drums and glorious vocals from freddie mercury. but nobody talks about it. it just changes vibes midway through and it's glorious. it's inexplicably jesus christ superstar coded. what is there not to love

john, paul and george in every beatles movie:

oh man i love my little hobbies and getting into shenanigans

ringo's subplot:

everyone in the 80s was like fuck ending this song

if I could bring back john lennon for a day and spend a few hours explaining what the internet is and what tumblr is and what rpf is and then tell him him and paul are beating jesus and judas at a who's gayer competition I think he'd find it the funniest fucking thing on earth especially given that he literally was killed over the jesus thing. which is why they have to obliterate jesus. for him.

My current mental state: Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. No I will not elaborate.

the early 70s are just called Brian May because this was HIS era oml

beatles lore is so crazy because. people will be like "wait you don't know about the time ringo got stuck in an interdimensional rift for 2 years??" and you just have to assume they're telling the truth

i think the funniest thing about the Paul Is Dead theory is that Fake Paul still had that homoerotic relationship with John. imagine being John Lennon and your best friend since you were 16 whom you are also in love with dies in a car crash and is replaced with a lookalike and you’re like. whelp. i guess i have to be in love with Fake Paul too. and then you go through one of the messiest divorces in music history.

You guys... it's here.

Very happy to get a definite answer before the Queen I (2024) boxset comes out. Drumroll pls... the person in the picture is.

✨️ John Deacon! ✨️

Welcome (back), following that time I randomly posted this picture which accidentally re-kickstarted the hunt for answers, and after failed efforts on my end to get some concrete answers, we're here.

I suddenly had the idea of begging asking a friend who is personally in touch with Brian to ask him about this photo whenever they get the chance. They graciously helped me and was able to ask him in person. ❤️

They allowed me to quote them on how Brian responded in person when he was asked about this photo, which was this!

However, they requested to remain anonymous and I will respect their wish. I do realize that puts the whole source of this post to "trust me, bro". If I were my follower I too would side-eye my own "trust me, bro".

But I hope I have a long and good enough track record to earn you guys' trust that I'm a stickler to sources (to the point of being bitchy about it, very often) and wouldn't make up sources (hell, the one time I sourced it so hard (Jim Jenkins who posted about this picture) people pointed out I was wrong!). So this time, it's direct from Brian who put together the back album collage, and just this one time - trust me, bro. 🙏

Bri said "Ah, that's John!"

Sounded very sure of himself.

[...]he instantly confirmed it was John - no hesitation or doubt whatsoever. Then he went on about where he shot it, etc which you already know.

I asked them how I should go about sharing this information and asked if I'm allowed to quote them on this, they said yes:

After putting on his glasses, he looked at it and went "Ahh, that's John!" then went into talking about everything else you already know about it. Given Brian's questionable memory sometimes I would let you know if there was any doubt or hesitation there, but there really wasn't.

So there you go! Happy Queen I (2024) week! My sincerest thank you to them who was very considerate and squeezed in my request when they were able to meet Brian.

forever the funniest quote in the world ever

my meloncholic nature and depressive tendancies are great paired with my ecclectic fashion sense because i will be taking a quiet and lonely walk in the rain in platform cowboy boots that have planets on them

as a phrase, “she [x] on my [x] til’ i [x]” only is funny if on either side of a spectrum. either the phrase ends so specific to a sexual action it’s a smart joke (for example, “she strogan me off til i beef” uses the word “beef stroganoff’ but also makes a “stroking off” joke, making it clever wordplay.) or it makes so little sense that it ends up funny from the absurdity of deciphering what type of sexual action could even be taking place. (example: when my roomate the other night asked to hand them a sanpelligrino and then said “she san on my pelli til’ i grino” which begs the question of what ‘sanning’ is, what a ‘pelli’ repersents in terms of human genitalia and what ‘grinoing’ could possibly be.)
