Quotation of the Day for November 5, 2018



"Mike Myers phoned me up and said, "We've got this thing which we think is great, do you want to hear it?" And I said, "Yeah." And he said, "Do you think Freddie would want to hear it?" Now Freddie was really sick by that time but I said, "Yeah, I'm sure he will." Mike gave me a tape which I took 'round to Freddie and played to him and Freddie loved it, he just laughed and thought it was great, this little video.

...

"It's a great scene. The funny thing was, we always regarded ["Bohemian Rhapsody"] tongue in cheek ourselves. If it would come on the radio, we would all be headbanging when it came to the heavy bit as well, us as a group. It was very close to our sense of humor."

- Brian May, guitarist of Queen, on the band's song Bohemian Rhapsody being used in the movie Wayne's World.
