Songs written about Queen
The following songs have been written about Freddie:
- The Cylinders "Freddie Mercury" (release details unknown)
- Ian Hunter "Now Is The Time" (from UK/Norwegian CD/CD5 "The Artful Dodger")
- "Freddie was a wonderful man and crazy as a loon, the archetypal
rock star - shy really, but when you knew him you could see that people
aspired to be what Fred naturally was. People show off and pretend in front
of the media, but Fred was the real thing. He was outrageous - morning, noon
and night. Queen opened for Mott The Hoople and were lovely blokes and it
really upset me when Fred died even though I hadn't seen him for a while, so
I wrote 'Now Is The Time'. I still keep in touch with Roger and Brian."
