Live Aid turned our world upside down.

Queen has taken the all of our time for last four or five years, you know.

Our albums just tend to be collections of songs really, because we all write in the group, all four of us.

Four personalities are bound to clash.

I didn't actually realise what apartheid meant. I'm probably a bit naive, but I thought it was more of a vague segregation, like on the beaches and buses.

No, we have our ups and downs, but we're all very up at the moment.

There was always a lot of American music in England until, obviously when the Beatles came around, then there was a shift towards English music, but before then American music was the main thing.

Then we did what we called basically I suppose a club tour in England, which was the time I think that our second album came out, we club toured around the whole country where the venues were hold to five hundreds upwards to that sort of thing you know.

Freddie and Brian tend to write the majority of the material.

In a way it costs thousands dollars before you could actually go out to put the show on because you'll need equipments, all the lights you know, and that's more just going out and playing you know.
