It is no coincidence that precisely today I
publish the second post of significance in this which is our space. And this is
because today one of the biggest voices of the music would turn 66 years old,
if that voice had not been turned off by the arrival of an end that he waited
with such drama.
Bomi Bulsara Farrock, better known as
Freddy Mercury, may be, perhaps, who has sung the most times his own death...
with deeper lyrics every time.
Freddy Mercury, who could be considered one
of the most important representatives of music’s ultrarealism, not only shows
the harshness of reality with a "mother, just killed a man, put a gun
against his head, pulled my trigger and now he's dead ", but also with a
deep "Who wants to live forever? " and reminds us all that the show
must go on.
"Mama, I do not wanna die, sometimes
wish I'd never been born at all", is the desperate scream of a Bohemian
Rhapsody, which along with "too much love will kill you" brings us
face to face with our final destination.
We recall, ironically, the soundtrack for
the film and subsequent television series "The Immortal", a song in
which Freddy Mercury reflects how close each of us is death, and he does it,
incredibly, with huge respect.
Not only nature granted Freddy a privileged
voice, inevitable in rock history of the late twentieth century, but a
sensitivity of someone who can only translate what a dying person feels when
approaches his final moment. A man who lived life with an extravagance only
visible in the greatest geniuses, showing her naked soul within a body in
disguise, and that is not afraid of waiting for the inevitable fate, for he
died as he lived, just wanting to be free. And he naturally screams: I want to
break free!
And yes, Freddy, the show went on, because
the show must go on. But you lead us out. God Save the Queen!
