Happy Birthday Freddie!!!!!!!!!!!

If you have been following this blog, for half a second, you'll know that I'm a bit of a Take That fan. If you have been following this blog, for 2 seconds, you'll know that even though I'm a huge Take That fan, my heart lies with Queen. They are in my humble opinion the one of the most innovative and creative bands to grace this earth. They are untouchable.

And Freddie Mercury was something special. Sadly as you all probably know(unless you live under a rock) Freddie passed away almost 25 years ago from complications from Aids. If I had a time machine one of the many things I would do is go back and see Queen live with Freddie. Anyways enough sadness, today is Freddie's birthday! So let's all have a drink for him!

This is actually a manicure I did back in November that I liked but I thought could have been done better. So with a better stamper and my MoYou Roxy Collection plate in 06 at hand I gave this mani another go!

Freddie Mercury- September 1946 – 24 November 1991

I was actually going to FINALLY post my A-Z Challenge today, as it slipped my mind and I totally neglected to post it to the blog. But I'm am pushing that back a day as this is somethiing I really want to post today.

So this is my Freddie Mercury mani. As it has been 23 years since he passes away. If you have been following me for a while you will know of my love for boy bands. You will also know that my love of Queen trumps that(and all other music for that matter). All them members were extremely talented, especially Freddie. Even though I am not in music I still look up to him as a writer.  I'm sad I never got to see Queen in their original lineup and if I ever invent time travel, that will be the first thing I do.

Pardon my stamping. I'm still a noob.



Plate is from MoYou London's Rockstar Collection and it's #8.

Simple Freddie Mercury? + Important Question

If you've been following this blog you'll notice that I think Take That is an okay man band. They're decent and I think with a bit more time they can be stars. But when it comes down to music there is one band that reigns.

Queen.

You can not get better than Queen.  I either have, or have heard every single Queen song.  If there's a concert bootleg out there, I've heard it.  For the most part I could tell you 1) What song was being played at a concert recording within the first few seconds 2) Even if I have 20 versions of one song I can tell you exactly where that specific version is from.

I especially love Freddie Mercury.  I think he was an AMAZINGLY talented musician and writer.  And the way he could hold an audience in the palm of his hand was just mind blowing.

Today I did a simple Freddie Mercury manicure (But I should make it clear that I would never describe him as simple.  Fabulous diva would be a good jumping off point).  I used some of his outfits as inspiration.  Can you guess what outfits I used(The index finger can be a few)? And if you like Queen what are some of your fav songs? Mine are Seven Seas of Rhye, Don't Stop Me Now, The Prophets Song,  I Want It All and Barcelona (Technically not Queen just Freddie), to name a few.  I could go on.


Random Freddie Story!

When someone found out I loved Freddie they said "You know he's gay?".  Yes good Sir. That's the problem.  He will have no interest in me because he's gay.  We can get past the whole he's been dead for 20 years thing though.

Question:  What nail polishes can I buy at Charles De Gaulle Airport? This is clearly important.

Ps. Freddie's outfits from thumb to pinky in case you want to know.  1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
