This isn't something I would have known if I hadn't, for the fun of it, clicked on Google for another country. I checked several different countries and they all have the same Google Doodle - except the US. I wonder why the US doesn't have it? Odd.

Walking in the Castro in the 80's could be so sad. I remember when the issue of the BAR came out with no obituaries for anyone who died of AIDS. That was a week to celebrate!

The man was amazing.

Sleep well, Freddie.

Here is another favorite YouTube video by Queen....The song "These are the Days"...Love the lyrics! I think it was his last video.

Hmmm...but Canada celebrates Labour Day today too and www.google.ca has the Freddie Mercury doodle.

The one you posted up is the actual video for the single. I'm not really a Queen/Mercury fan but I thought he did an excellent version of The Great Pretender, back around 1987 I think it was...
