I'm just saying, if a man ever looked at me the way Brian looked at Freddie, I'd be picking out a wedding dress

“Orion has to be the strongest, most striking, most beautiful constellation in the sky... it would suit Freddie perfectly!”

Those words made this occur to me somehow...🥺🤧

Let's talk about this more obscure interview from '92:

1. Brian basically admitted that Freddie is in every song in Back to the Light in some way, but he hesitates and says, "I don't like to talk--sometimes it's hard to talk about it because it gets too specific, you know?" So he was (and still is, I suppose, since he didn't mention this during the rerelease) reluctant to talk about every little way Freddie was in the music for BTTL.

2. He says the most direct connection to Freddie is "Nothin' But Blue", unsurprisingly, but he also says that as he was writing this, "I'm thinking about his life, and I'm thinking about how I feel losing him, I'm thinking about what my life means." Brian wondering what his life meant after losing Freddie is something he talked about before, with his quotes that he thought his life was over :(

3. Next is where it gets pretty interesting, imo. He says the previous point relates to the theme of the album, along with the question of how Freddie felt about all this and his way out of dark spots in his life. Brian mentions how he wrote "Resurrection" when Freddie was declining rapidly, but his spirit was getting stronger and stronger. This is the first time I've heard Brian imply he partly took inspiration for the fighting spirit of "Resurrection" from Freddie.

4. He seems to almost choke up at the end of the video. He's asked about the future of Queen, and responds by saying he doesn't see a future for the band without Freddie. He says, "That's how....[pauses, sniffs] that's how I feel about it" while looking like this

So. Ouch.

"Freddie was basically a shy person who really invented this person, this outrageous kind of show etc, etc ...

But at the heart of it all, he was a brilliant, brilliant musician. "
