My favorite memory is...his typical style of middle to late '70s wearing harlequin leotards and drinking champagne, saying "Cheers!" to the audience, though I've never seen him alive and I can see it only in the videos and DVD.
It was, imo, the most theatrical and the most Queenish to me...

i don't have a memory of such seeing as i'm only 13 myself but I think this would be a cool memopry to have - this happened to my friend's mum. On her birthday her friend invited her to her boyfriend's band's lead singer's house for a party. At the party the band sung happy birthday to her. Later on she found out that her friend's boyfriend was Brian May and the band was Queen. Wowza, that would have been my favourite memory of him!
i have to admit that i am only 12 and wasn't around when freddie was alive and the fact that i have only been a queen fan for over a year so it will sound stuped becos i have only seen4 dvd and herd 2 cd so if i had to chose from them i would say in live at wembly dvd (i have seen that!!!!) at the end when freddie walks on in a crown and cape that made my friend Holly burst out laghing because we expecter it to be more like the outher live one that i have seen but cant remember the name .

I wonder if Michael Jackson will use that line as part of his defence?
My favourite Freddie memory, and I make no apologies for being so obvious, but it's got to be Live Aid. I almost fell off my chair (I was sober, don't forget) and immediately realised that Queen ruled the world.
Afterwards I was straight out onto the patio with half a broomstick in my hands, prancing about doing a Freddie and getting a mouldy tomato in the eye for my trouble.
Archie Leach never missed, even back then.
Most Freddie-like memory which I love so much is his stage action. I'm sure lots of fans around the world also love it like me.
I love seeing him prancing around and strutting around the stage like a proud peacock, using his shortened mic stand.
well. My finest moments must be when hearing freddie when we was in really top shape, those moments that you feel like ther can be nothing better, like when he gets the high notes in "save me" and, weel you guys maybe have your own memories. And off course when freddie just gets crazy on stage and runing around. last but not least his dirty and fun speakings between the songs.
"this is my champaign time, cheers everybody. Hello ladies and gentlemen and everybody else. You don't wanna hear it... I like the rain, if you don't like the rain... What do you think about my new mustasch...."
well every moment i saw freddie was in my eyes a finest moment, i lowered my head and had a min where i thought of freddie...he is an inspiration to me and others and his memory will never be gone , it only gets stronger!x oh freddie we all miss you hurry back!x
