Freddie Mercury was, is and will be one of the most famous musicians in the history of mankind. In 1991, he passed away, the reason for this was AIDS. At the time, the singer was almost the first public person to die from this terrible virus. Instead of despairing or leaving his career, as many would have done in his place, Freddie began to work at a feverish pace. One of his closest friends and colleagues recalls: Freddie said to me: “Write to me, write to me anything. I know that I don’t have long left. Write me words, write me music. I’ll sing everything, and then do whatever you want. The main thing is to finish…” Denis Richards, Freddie’s producer, recalls that the musician was in a serious condition, practically dying, but still came to the studio to record a farewell song - “Mother love”. In this song, Freddie hit such an incredible note that listeners still get goosebumps when listening to it. He sang until the last verse, and then said: "I can't do it anymore, I'll rest a little bit and then we'll finish." Mercury never showed up in the recording studio again...
