This last album from the full line up of Queen was a remarkable album when one considers Freddie Mercury was dying. The lyics of the variuos tracks all testify to a different way of feeling and all demand a closer inspection. "I'm going slighty mad" must have been Freddie's humor coming through in spite of his difficulties and "These are the dyas of our lives" sum up what many people must feel when faced with the end. The most moving track for me must be "The show must go on", the power of Mercury's voice hides his frailty - yet on listening to the song, it never fails to give me goose bumps when I listen to the power behind the lyrics and consider how close to death Freddie Mercury was.
