20 years since the death of a legend

And I mean, a public icon who was privately a humble, even shy person AND was actually incredibly, mindblowingly talented. How many of those do we have these days, as opposed to posers and celebrities without real abilities?

I always found watching interviews with Freddie really fascinating. Away from the stage, he sounds and acts like a complete opposite of his stage persona - so much so that sometimes I wondered if it was even really him. And then he'd sing...

RIP Freddy

Just imagine how many great records we missed due to his early death...

On a lighter note:
Am I the only one to noticew that the OP did a series of "20 years ago" some time ago?
Does the Slovenian independence and Mercury's death have a connection? Did the Slovenian Mossad kill him because he looked like Tito?:
