How did you manage, to stay together for 15 years without any big trouble…?
JOHN : We fight a lot and hard, we all are pigheaded, no one does give in, most of all Roger and Freddie roar at each other over and over again. The new single brought a lot of fights, so we released Roger’s song in Europe and in the States Freddie’s song “Princes of the Universe”. We will see who will win :)

“Rod Stewart, Elton John and I were going to form a band called Hair, Nose & Teeth after the three of us. But it hasn’t happened because none of us can agree on the order of the words!” - Freddie Mercury
Freddie Mercury saw the stage version of The Rocky Horror Show at the Royal Court Theatre, in Chelsea, London, and went to see the film version of the cult classic, which starred Tim Curry, in 1975. Mercury loved its choreography, fluid sexuality and atmosphere of total excess. Curry and Mercury became friends, and keen horticulturalist Curry later told House And Garden magazine about designing a garden for the singer: “Freddie came back from a tour and said, ‘The garden, dear, it’s dead.’ I said, ‘What? Did you water it?’ And Freddie said, ‘Water it, dear?’”
