I've always lived in that guitar world. I have noticed kids being more into the real essence of guitar music now.

I was an incurable romantic then, same as I am now. I was always pining away after somebody

I spent 20 years of my life building up Queen, and now Im spending years of my life trying to get away from it.

Doing Made In Heaven was like assembling a jigsaw puzzle, but I wouldn't have put my seal of approval on it if I hadn't thought it was up to standard.

I'm into paradoxes. I wanted to make an album about them, but the group told me I was a pretentious fart. They were right.

My mum says I wanted to be a surgeon, but I don't remember that. I think from the time I knew what was happening, I wanted to be a guitar player.

When I'm gone, people will no doubt remember me for Queen, but I would much rather be remembered for attempting to change the way we treat our fellow creatures.
