Podcast appearances and mentions of Freddie Mercury

As What Next celebrates Juneteenth, please enjoy this episode ⁠from our colleagues at Hit Parade⁠. What Next will be back in your feed on Monday. Little Richard was rock ‘n' roll's flamboyant architect. Lesley Gore sang that no one owned her. Sylvester was a gender-fluid icon who helped define disco. Freddie Mercury made rock operatic, and George Michael demanded freedom. What all of these LGBTQ artists had in common was bold hitmaking—and fear of being fully out of the closet. For decades, queer acts topped the charts while cloaking their true identities and paving the way for today's more openly queer stars. For Pride Month, join Chris Molanphy as he traces the hidden history of queer hitmakers on the charts—including those that managed to be both out and No. 1, right up through our modern age of Lil Nas X and Chappell Roan. It's a celebration of these artists' quest to feel… mighty real. Want more Hit Parade?

Munich, début des années 80. Freddie Mercury y séjourne régulièrement dans un petit appartement meublé que lui a dégoté son amie Barbara Valentin, star allemande du cinéma, égérie du réalisateur Rainer Fassbinder. Barbara adore faire la fête, comme Freddie qui adore Munich. Il aurait pu, comme David Bowie, aller à Berlin où on connaît le chemin qui mène au bout de la nuit mais voilà, Freddie a atterri dans la capitale bavaroise pour des raisons professionnelles : pour travailler avec le producteur Reinhold Mack qui s'est notamment illustré sur tous les albums à succès d'Electric Light Orchestra. Et donc c'est en découvrant le studio de cet ingénieur du son qui va renouveler le son de Queen en 1980 que Freddie constate à sa grande satisfaction qu'en plus des soirées sans fin, on le laisse tranquille quand il marche dans la rue, s'assoit dans un café. Pas de chasseurs d'autographes comme à Londres, et surtout, pas de photographes d'impitoyables tabloïds britanniques.Et donc ce soir, tout commence dans un grand restaurant. Ambiance chic, couverts en argent, Freddie est invité par des gens qui veulent lui parler affaires. Freddie s'ennuie rapidement. Il soupire. Et quand l'un des convives ose faire une blague sur son look, Freddie se lève, balance sa serviette et sort. Rideau. Le voilà dans la rue sous les lampadaires, habillé en rock star, perfecto noir, lunettes fumées et bottes de cuir, quand au coin de la rue, il entend de la musique. Des rires. C'est une fête, étudiante, on dirait. Freddie sonne à la porte. On ouvre. Le reconnaît-on ? Il n'en sait rien. Son nouveau look cheveux courts et surtout moustache n'est pas encore vraiment connu de tous. Et puis des moustaches comme la sienne, en Allemagne, à cette époque, il y en a à tous les coins de rue. Alors Freddie entre, prend une bière, s'assoit avec les autres, discute, rigole. Puis, il entend quelqu'un jouer sur un piano droit, s'approche, demande si il peut, s'installe et joue Bohemian Rhapsody. La salle se fige, murmure. Puis explose. Tout le monde chante. Freddie monte sur une table, improvisant un récital improbable devant une trentaine de jeunes gens ébahis. Et vers quatre heures du matin, c'est lui qui sert les bières derrière le bar, blaguant, hilare, avant de filer au petit matin en lançant un : Thanks for the party, darlings! C'est ça, Freddie Mercury. Chanter devant dix mille spectateurs ou trente convives, ça reste le même plaisir. Et si cette histoire qui circule et que j'ai enjolivée n'est pas tout-à-fait exacte, quelle importance. Elle a forcément eu lieu. J'ai assez assisté à des scènes de ce genre pour savoir que c'est arrivé et que ça se produit encore, enfin peut-être plus parce qu'aujourd'hui des gens sortent aussitôt leur portable pour filmer. Freddie n'aurait pas aimé car ce qu'il appréciait par-dessus tout, c'était de vivre, faire la fête, pas la regarder. La vraie vie, quoi.

Nothing can beat a charismatic frontman. Then again, there are some Side Players that give them a run for their money. I mean… who is Bono without Edge? Freddie Mercury without Brian May? Roth or Haggar without Eddie Van Halen? Robert Plant without Jimmy Page? Anthony Kiedis without John Frusciante? Bon Scott or Brian Johnson without Angus & Malcolm? Or Mick Jagger without Keith Richards.Of course I would be remiss not to mention the few charismatic Frontmen that are also ripping guitarists. Like Brad Paisley, Keith Urban, John Mayer, Jimi Hendrix, Either of the Vaughn Brothers, Derek Trucks, Prince, Eric Clapton, Chet Atkins, Mark Knopfler, Vince Gill… and lets just say ALL of the Kings.But which is it better to be, a Frontman or a Side Player? Can you be both? Which carries more stress? Which carries more fame? Does one roll have more significance than the other? Who has the bigger influence on the sound? If we could give some advice, what would it be? When I think of a band, which member  comes to mind? And… job security… did I just get fired?Well we will discuss this, and more on this group therapy session with Lloyd, on the Tweed Couch.

Den Namen Freddie Mercury habt ihr wahrscheinlich alle schon mal gehört. Er war der Sänger der berühmten Band Queen. Aber er war auch noch mehr als das. Warum er so bekannt wurde und auch heute noch eine Rolle spielt, das verrät euch Disha.

Few rock bands have had a greater global impact than Queen. The British act, whose core line-up included Brian May, Roger Taylor, John Deacon, and absolutely iconic frontman Freddie Mercury – emerged from scrappy prog-rock band in the early 1970s, to pop-rock superstars in the late 70s, to arena-rock gods in the 1980s, selling out shows on almost every continent. Queen's Greatest Hits album from 1981 remains the best-selling album in United Kingdom history, and as of late 2024, has spent more than 600 weeks on the United States Billboard 200. Queen's set at 1985's Live Aid concert at Wembley Stadium is regarded as one of the greatest rock performances of all time. While Queen's golden age ended with the tragic death of Mercury in 1990, its legacy lives on more than 30 years later, and if there is any justice, will never diminish. So join us as the Great Pop Culture Debate attempts to name the Best Queen Single of all time. Songs discussed: “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Another One Bites the Dust,” “Don't Stop Me Now,” “Under Pressure,” “Radio Ga Ga,” “We Are the Champions,” “Crazy Little Thing Called Love,” “Somebody to Love,” “Killer Queen,” “Fat-Bottomed Girls,” “I Want to Break Free,” “Bicycle Race,” “You're My Best Friend,” “I Want It All,” “Flash,” “The Show Must Go On.” Join host Eric Rezsnyak, GPCD panelists Derek Mekita and Zack Derby, and special guest John Higgins, archivist and legacy consultant for Sir Elton John, as they discuss and debate 16 of the most revered songs by iconic rock band, Queen.

Who is this Dan Orlando guy? And why is his album so good?!It's episode No. 100 - featuring Philadelphia-area piano-playing singer-songwriter & lead singer Dan Orlando! Dan takes us through his musical journey and we break down the songs & the making of his thrilling debut LP Heritage Trail. Dan makes no bones about where he sets his sights."I do feel like there is a closed highway - that if someone can access it, there is an appetite for another 'Piano Man,'" Dan said in our conversation. "I've always chased that ambition and I haven't been shy about it. I think I'm the next 'Piano Man.'"Download Heritage Trail and Dan's other releases and see for yourself why audiences are taking notice - and why they may be hungry for a hero in this genre.Visit Dan's web site for Dan's live schedule, merch & more. Follow him on social media - @danorlandojrhttps://danorlandojr.com/"In addition to his solo career, Dan is the lead singer of The Lords of 52nd Street, a band featuring original members of the Billy Joel band, which tours across the Northeast. His exceptional talent led him to the prestigious University of Cincinnati's College-Conservatory of Music, where he graduated with a bachelor's degree in jazz piano. Here, he drew inspiration from artists like Keane and Coldplay, admiring their ability to prominently feature piano in a way that resonates with everyday listeners.Dan's exceptional talent led him to the prestigious University of Cincinnati's College-Conservatory of Music, where he graduated with a bachelor's degree in jazz piano. Here, he drew inspiration from artists like Keane and Coldplay, admiring their ability to feature piano prominently in a way that resonated with everyday listeners. Additionally, he idolized Freddie Mercury of Queen for his dynamic stage presence and vocal prowess, while the soulful sounds of Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye shaped his musical style.Blessed with perfect pitch and a multi-octave vocal range, Dan has been a professional musician for nearly half of his life. Music is the most honest form of expression for Dan. He often says he gets his emotions out much more clearly through music than through words or body language.Growing up in West Grove, Pennsylvania, Dan's musical journey began early. He knew Mozart before he knew his ABCs and loved his afternoon piano lessons. A pivotal moment came when he discovered Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road in his father's CD collection. A lightbulb went off! He didn't know piano could rock.Today, Dan's unique blend of pop, rock, R&B, and balladry connects with fans of every genre and generation. His goal is to create music with a timeless quality that people of his generation can't wait to show their grandkids someday.In 2016, Dan stepped into the national spotlight, performing at the “Power of Love” 20th Anniversary Gala, celebrating Tony Bennett's 90th Birthday at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. As part of an all-star lineup, Dan took the stage with American Idol Season 6 winner Jordin Sparks to sing a medley of Bennett's hits. He has also supported headliners like Andrea Bocelli, Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds, Robin Thicke, and the Blues Brothers."Thanks for listening, subscribing & telling a friend about the Dan Time Podcast!

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 29ú lá de mí Bealtaine, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1971 dúradh go mbeadh stailc ann de 400 oibreoirí ESB agus dá mbeidís chun an stailc a dhéanamh go mbeadh 140 míle custaiméirí chun a leictreachas a chailleadh. I 1987 bhí ráflaí ann go mbeadh laghdú sa phraghas I bpeitreal agus bhí an Rialtas na hEorpa ag labhairt faoi. I 1997 fuair Bertie Ahern fáiltiú iontach nuair a chuaigh sé chuig Ros Cré. Chuaigh sé ann de bharr go raibh an scairdeán I Rosemary Square ag oscail arís tar éis é a athchóiriú. I 2000 bhí Craobh na Mumhan chun tosú ag an am le Tiobraid Árann agus Port Láirge chun imir I gcoinne a chéile sa chéad bhabhta le John Leahy sa tosaí agus bhí sé sin an rud a bhí gach duine ag labhairt faoi. Sin The Tamperer agus Maya le Feel It – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1998. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1992 bhí daoine buartha go raibh páistí sa Sacred Heart I New Jersey ag aitheantais mar Freddie Mercury, rinne siad an cinneadh gan We Are The Champions ó Queen a canadh ag an searmanas bronnta. I 2002 nocht siad mósáic sa mhúsaem The Beatles Story a bhí 16 troigh a bhí dearadh ag John Lennon. Bhí an mósáic pháirteach de linn snámha John Lennon ina dteach I Surrey nuair a bhí sé ina chónaí ann ó 1964 go dtí 1968. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh amhránaí Noel Gallagher sa Bhreatain I 1967 agus rugadh amhránaí Mel B sa Bhreatain ar an lá seo I 1975 agus seo chuid de amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 29th of May, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1971: strike action by 400 esb engineers a tactic that wouldve left 140,000 consumers without power supplies had been deferred. 1987: a strong hint of a drop in petrol prices currently amongst the highest in europe was given by the government last night. 1997 - Fianna Fail Leader, Mr Bertie Ahern TD, got a rousing reception when he arrived in Roscrea. His visit co-incided with the opening of the restored 120 year old fountain in Rosemary Square, he addressed the gathering from the fountain wall.  2000 – The Munster Championship was a bout to begin, Tipp would face Waterford in the first round with the selection of John Leahy in the forward line, the main talking point ahead of the opener.  That was The Tamperer with Feel It – the biggest song on this day in 1998 Onto music news on this day In 1992 Concerned that some pupils were overly identifying with Freddie Mercury, the sacred heart School in Clifton New Jersey decided not to sing the Queen song 'We Are The Champions', at their Graduation Ceremony. 2002 A 16ft by 6ft mosaic designed by John Lennon went on display at The Beatles Story museum in Liverpool. The mosaic had been built into Lennon's swimming pool at his Kenwood home in Surrey where he lived between 1964 and 1968. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – singer Noel Gallagher was born in the UK in 1967 and singer Mel B was born in The UK on this day in 1975 and this is one of her songs. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

Welcome to our podcast where we discuss and deliberate over memoirs and biographies found in thrift shops. This is a great way to do things as we are not choosing who to read about. We may not be fans of the person, we may never have heard of the person and we never know who we are going to find next...There are only 2 rules to this podcast. The book has to be found in a thrift shop and we are not allowed to talk about the book until we press record, which is sometimes agonising.We have lots of episodes coming up so if you find yourself enjoying our podcast, please be sure to subscribe to be among the first to hear about each episode.

Luis Miguel "Micky" explains how photographer Neil Preston encouraged his pursuit of music. Micky met Preston at a masterclass in Boston, where Micky's enthusiastic dancing on a bus impressed Preston. Preston remarked that Micky had a unique energy he'd last seen with Freddie Mercury and later gifted Micky a signed photo of Mercury after learning Micky was inspired by the singer.

I 1971 dúradh go mbeadh stailc ann de 400 oibreoirí ESB agus dá mbeidís chun an stailc a dhéanamh go mbeadh 140 míle custaiméirí chun a leictreachas a chailleadh. I 1987 bhí ráflaí ann go mbeadh laghdú sa phraghas I bpeitreal agus bhí an Rialtas na hEorpa ag labhairt faoi. I 1987 tháinig an nuacht amach go mbeadh an t-aonad máithreachais chun dúnadh I Cahercalla de bharr gearradh siar. I 1998 tháinig an nuacht amach go bhfuair timpeall 8,500 feirmeoirí ón chontae timpeall 50 milliúin punt I maoiniú ó coimisiúin na hEorpa chun cúiteamh do gach rud a chaill siad faoin pholaisí talmhaíochta. Sin The Tamperer agus Maya le Feel It – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1998. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1992 bhí daoine buartha go raibh páistí sa Sacred Heart I New Jersey ag aitheantais mar Freddie Mercury, rinne siad an cinneadh gan We Are The Champions ó Queen a canadh ag an searmanas bronnta. I 2002 nocht siad mósáic sa mhúsaem The Beatles Story a bhí 16 troigh a bhí dearadh ag John Lennon. Bhí an mósáic pháirteach de linn snámha John Lennon ina dteach I Surrey nuair a bhí sé ina chónaí ann ó 1964 go dtí 1968. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh amhránaí Noel Gallagher sa Bhreatain I 1967 agus rugadh amhránaí Mel B sa Bhreatain ar an lá seo I 1975 agus seo chuid de amhrán.

That was The Tamperer with Feel It – the biggest song on this day in 1998 Onto music news on this day In 1992 Concerned that some pupils were overly identifying with Freddie Mercury, the sacred heart School in Clifton New Jersey decided not to sing the Queen song 'We Are The Champions', at their Graduation Ceremony. 2002 A 16ft by 6ft mosaic designed by John Lennon went on display at The Beatles Story museum in Liverpool. The mosaic had been built into Lennon's swimming pool at his Kenwood home in Surrey where he lived between 1964 and 1968.

And who the hell is holding whose dong on Cloud 8?”Welcome to one of the most unhinged, hilarious, and musically passionate episodes of The Ben and Skin Show on 97.1 The Eagle! With Ben Rogers out on vacation, the mic is in the capable (and chaotic) hands of Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina “Little Baby Cornbread” Ray—and they're diving headfirst into a rock ‘n' roll alphabet showdown you won't forget.Inspired by Loudwire's “ABCs of Rock,” the crew debates the best rock bands for every letter of the alphabet—from Heart to Judas Priest, Metallica to Nirvana, and Van Halen to ZZ Top.

Click here to send us a message!This week we're taking a look at two very different queer icons. Musical geniuses Freddie Mercury and Liberace each got the biopic treatment in the 2010's, and each got very different treatment. Behind the Candelabra starred Oscar winners Michael Douglas and Matt Damon and was directed by Oscar winner Steven Soderbergh. Despite the pedigree, only HBO would release it. Bohemian Rhapsody, by contrast, despite a troubled production and a problematic filmmaker, somehow won four Academy Awards in 2019.

Have you heard of Bryan Johnson – tech centimillionaire turned longevity evangelist? He made headlines when he started getting infusions of his own son's blood as a part of his quest to live forever. And he turned that quest into "Don't Die," a movement he's calling a religion. Johnson is pretty intent on longevity – but he's not the only one. Other tech magnates are bought in, too. But in the words of Freddie Mercury, who wants to live forever, and why? What does all of this have to do with the prediction of an AI takeover, and what does this mean for how we think about what's "human?" Brittany is joined by journalists Michelle Santiago Cortes and Tara Isabella Burton to get into what might be a new religion of longevity.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
