“QUEEN
Wed 27th Nov 91
3.00 Early Morning
Dear Folks
This time I am putting pen to paper for the 3 of us, John, Roger and myself. We have spent many hours together over the last rew weeks and especially the last few days, and I think we feel very closely the same. We couldn’t let this special magazine go out without a very special message of thanks to you, our wonderful friends (‘fans’ has never seemed quite the right word for you guys, (by which I mean Ladies and Gentlemen) who have been so incredibly understanding and supportive to us over the years). As you know by now, Freddie was fighting the terrible AIDS disease for many years, and for much of the time even we didn’t know. For Freddie his Art and his Friends were everything. He poured himself with huge vigour into both. He was determined that no hint of frailty should mar his music, or our music, or make life difficult for his friends. By refusing to concede anything to the illness, his amazing strength and courage enabled him to continue at full strength in making albums, videos etc, even though it cost him more and more in private pain. Life was already almost impossible for him while we were making the Innuendo album (after pacing himself very carefully during “the Miracle” he hardly expected he would be alive for another). By the time “Days of Our Lives” was being shot on video, he could barely stand. He never in our hearing complained about his lot, and never let despondency creep into his work. His voice seemed to get miraculously better and better. And he died without ever losing control. Freddie never wanted sympathy – he wanted exactly what you, Queen fans, gave him : – belief, support and the endorsement of that strangely winding road to excellence that we, Queen, have tried to follow. You gave him support in being the outstandingly free spirit that he was, and is.
One final word. Whatever the despicable press may have made out, Freddie had nothing to be ashamed of. He lived life to the full, and was generous to everyone he came close to. His announcement, made by his own will only when he knew his fight was over, will, with our help and yours, be a major factor in persuading the public that AIDS is now EVERYONE’S problem. But Freddie, his music, his dazzling creative energy – those are for ever.”
Thank you all so much from us : –
Brian +, Roger,
+ John.”
