| goinback 19.03.2004 04:04 |
"Son & Daughter" always sounded so androgynous to me...about someone trying to figure out of they're a boy or a girl. Interestingly I think Brian wrote it though. "Tried to be a son and daughter rolled into one...." "I want you...to be a woman." |
| runy 19.03.2004 04:10 |
"Tried to be a son and daughter rolled into one...." "I want you...to be a woman." wow, never listened to it so carefully. It's interesting. :) |
| Lawyeris 19.03.2004 04:43 |
Due to it's lyrics "...I want to be a woman..." I've read in some russian book that "I want to ride my bicyle" means "I want to shag bisexual" |
| YourValentine 19.03.2004 05:17 |
I am more and more amazed about what people read in books here :) As far as I know there are various "comical covers" of "bicycle" with other lyrics containing "bisexual" etc. |
| Daburcor? 19.03.2004 05:21 |
Why does EVERYTHING here have to turn into (or start as) a conversation about sex/sexual preferance!? There ARE other things in life to think about. Try it. You may surprise yourself. |

"Queerest" video? "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" "Queerest" Freddie song? "Body Language" Freddie never really came out and SAID "I am gay", but I feel that around the time of "The Game" and "Hot Space" he said "fuck it, I'll do what I want". I think he figured he would dress and act the way that he felt and let the people think what the want. He was doing that in the 70's, but it was still ambiguous. In the 80's, especially the early 80's, he really swung over to the homosexual style of dress and life. If you went to a gay club in the early 80's, you would have thought that it was Freddie in a house of mirrors; every man in there had the short shorts, bushy mustache and leather. Not everyone who had a mustache and wore leather in the 80's was gay (take it easy, Tom Selleck), but you do not have to be from Fire Island to figure out where Freddie was coming from. Also, check out the "Living on My Own" video. |

| Rich Tea 19.03.2004 15:57 |
Funny never really thought of any Queen song as being homosexual although the lyrics to "DREAMERS BALL" always puzzled me! |
| MercuryArts 19.03.2004 16:02 |
I have been listening to Fight from the Inside since 1981 when it was the first Queen album I got. I have never thought of it in any homosexual way. You people have a vivid imagination. |
| Daburcor? 19.03.2004 16:03 |

| Chancellor_Amethyst 19.03.2004 16:11 |
While not exactly "homosexual", "White Queen" had very wandering and andryognous type lyrics. Roger's "get a grip on my boy racer roll bar" was fine on its on, but the line before it "when I'm holding your grease gun" made you think, 'specially since every live performance of it I've ever heard had him change the line to "holding YOUR grease gun, (honey)" Tear it up, Dragon Attack, Sheer Heart Attack, and those ones were always odd in a "homosexual" way for me. Obvious ones were mentioned first, with GOFLB, BL and did someone mention Don't Stop Me Now Dreamer's Ball has to top my list too. Along the confused "Son and Daughter" what am I? idea, Save Me, It's Late and all those other "what did I do wrong? What should I do?" Brian songs. Mainly, it's Freddie songs that are camp and Brian songs that are confused, Roger's are about partying, feelings and, most of all, sex, which is bound to come off as "anything goes" at some point--and, come on, we are talking about ROGER. And John... well, the closest he got to homoerotic (which is probably a better word to use than homosexual IMO) was Misfire. -Amethyst |
| Big Black 19.03.2004 16:30 |
In an interview in Circus magazine in 1975 John did admit to Misfire being about premature ejaculation in the homosexual community. Good call. |

| chancelloramethyst 19.03.2004 17:40 |
BTW Both Brian and Jimmy May (who are heterosexual to some extent in that they are apparently with women) both refer to their women as "partner". But as for Dreamer's Ball, "you used to take me dancing just like any other boy" is something of a dead giveaway. -Amethyst |
| deleted user 19.03.2004 17:43 |
Big Black you reacted the right way with your response(LMAO!!!) I really cannot believe I would read such answers in a DAMN QUEEN FORUM!!! And I am not offended by someone telling their opinion about the nature of a song(body language HAS a (homo?)sexual "taste" to it btw). Some answers here really don't make sense and I can describe them at least as ridiculous. I am really sorry for people who regard music(music for godshake!)that way. |
| chancelloramethyst 19.03.2004 21:18 |
It's not really about it regarding it "that way" at least, it's not for me. It's more about how you feel about the song, how you relate to it and what you see in it. And, for the most part, these posts and questions are so much better than fave Queen song and the like. -Amethyst |

"But as for Dreamer's Ball, "you used to take me dancing just like any other boy" is something of a dead giveaway." I have no idea what dead giveaway means, but I assume that that post is saying that that line is gay. I have always understood that line the other way around - Freddie is the boy. The girl took him dancing just like she took any other boy. What comes to the most gay Queen song, my vote goes to See What A Fool I've Been. It's terrible and Freddie's voice sounds awful! |
| chancelloramethyst 20.03.2004 17:18 |
I liked the "like any other boy" part because then you don't know who is the boy. It's better that way. -Amethyst |
| Oberon 24.03.2004 07:45 |
"The other boy" thing is meant to be ambiguous I suspect. Generally a boy takes a girl dancing. It's the same as Good Old Fashioned Loverboy and "you will pay the bill, I'll taste the wine". Both of these are generally done by the male. Son And Daughter - don't know if the post on this one was a joke, but I always presumed this was because Brian's an only child and felt he had to fullfil both roles as a son and a daughter. Ties in with Sail Away Sweet Sister. |
| The Real Wizard 24.03.2004 12:06 |
Right on, Oberon. I believe that's the truth. |
| Brian_Mays_Wig 25.03.2004 11:44 |
If I could only reach you, If I could make you smile... Im outta control, Im gonna rush headlong into this extacy.. Honey your starting somthing, deep inside of me.. Not homosexual, but quite horney. Infact, im gonna play it now and Tommy Tank. *blushes* |
| Bohardy 25.03.2004 16:35 |
...except that the actual line in GOFLB is exactly opposite to what Oberon said, and traditionally men pay the bill, completely negating the theory of deliberate sexual ambiguity in that song. (Although I don't know which sex traditionally tastes the wine, not being up on my social etiquette. If men do, then my above statement is completely negated, which would be suitably ironic). |
| Penis - Vagina 25.03.2004 16:57 |
I always thought "I'll taste the wine" was very gay and meant oral sex with climax (the 'wine')... a similar lyric comes in 'Khashoggi's Ship' with "Everybody drank my wine -you get my drift" which kind of speaks for itself. In the same song, Freddie writes: "This big bad sucker with a fist as big as your head Wanted to get me, I said go away" Um, 'fist' has a meaning in the gay community which I can't really explain in a nice way at all - you get my drift? :-P Combining that with 'sucker' in the same lyric.. well, I rest my case. |
| Dasenka Keglevic R. 26.03.2004 10:41 |
I think...Son and Daughter, the March of the Black Queen (..I'm lord of the darkness I'm Queen of the night"), Don't stop me now, in ther part that "I'm going to make a supersonic woman of you" and then he said "I'm gonna make a supersonic man of you"....maybe I'm just thinkin in the wrong way...but the first time that I lestened that, That was what I tought.... |
| chancelloramethyst 26.03.2004 14:44 |
There's a lot of that in Brian's songs, saying something about one gender, and repeating it for the other, giving his songs this interesting wondering capacity. Like in Polar Bear, "To see him as you'd see a star Love him from where you are He's not for, not for, not for sale" then "To see her as I'd see a star Love her from where you are She's not for, not for, not for sale" And then ties it up with both, "I love her from where I lie He's not for,not for,not for sale Not for sale" And... temporarily forgotten the other one that stuck out besides Son and Daughter and that other one... oh, right. Now I'm Here, about "random groupie" Peaches "Don't I love her so" and then about Hoople, "Don't I love him so". Not to say there's anything to read into that, however I think what is the read into bit would be the fact that lyrics were changed when sung live. ie. "Don't I love him so" was either not sung or changed to the later "don't I love you so" and "when I'm holding your grease gun" was always sung "When you're holding my grease gun, honey." Also, when Freddie performed "Big Spender" he always fuzzed over "guy" to kind of sound like "gal" and barely sang the word man. I can't believe I forgot about all the M of the BQ stuff, especially the line "Now I've got a belly full" and all the painting nails and "rub-a-dub-a-baby oil" bit. Not to mention "put them in the cellar with the naughty boys" and the whole sugar baby thing... Even though he does say "she" that's not necessarily the person's gender, as we are talking about a belly full here. Freddie and Elton John commonly refered to each other as "she" in interviews, after all. So... yeah. A few more cents from the Chancellor. -Amethyst |
| brianburnsdavid 26.03.2004 15:04 |

| Harpo_the_taylorette 26.03.2004 16:01 |
I think Misfire...it sounds to me like that song's about gay sex "Don't you Misfire, fill me up" |
| spreadurwingz 26.03.2004 19:35 |
How is "Get down, make love" Homosexual? He is talking about having sex with a super hot girl. Boy and Girl is straight, people. And I am ashamed about how many people are replying to this. Freddie couldn't help the way he was, and he was free to incorporate his feelings and such into his songs. |
| spreadurwingz 26.03.2004 19:39 |
"If you went to a gay club in the early 80's, you would have thought that it was Freddie in a house of mirrors; every man in there had the short shorts, bushy mustache and leather." And you would know this HOW??? |

XD Im loving this topic. I gotta say "See What A Fool I've Been"...apparently it's so queer it makes my mother's stomach turn. I think its overly-camp performance Gotta say I love Son and Daughter...I really really really do... I suppose it fits well into my friends and my lifestyles... Hope to perform it some day with my current group (or make a japanese version ^_^) I also agree with "March of the Black Queen" not ONLY because of the lord of all darkness part as well and also the reply ^_^ the songs sexy none the less. |

Have you gyus forgotten We Are The Champios?? It’s not a song about a football club winning a championship, it’s about a gay community that has truly’paid their dues’ and ’done their senrence but committed no crime.’ Try and listen the song in that context. It makes perfect sence in that way, too. When it comes to Freddie’s song, i think, he wnted to write songs that could be interpreted in so meny ways. Well, that’s what poetry is all about, isn’t it? Yes, many Queen songs can be interpreted as gay songs, but remember what Freddie said in an interview about tha name of the band (that is, Queen) ’I was aware of the gay connotation but that was just one face of it.'’I think he loved it when people couldn’t tell what his work was all about. |
| Azmandaman 27.03.2004 05:29 |
the best thing about good music is that it gives of good vibes for free thinkers.. the worse thing is when one of the many free thinkers starts publicising to the world that this song is about one certain thing. As a fan I believe in all of your thoughts about Queen music yeah that suits very well the we are the champions vibe it CAN be so so so true in many ways and that certainly is one, and Freddie would be proud if you saw it like that million might even already think so... but doesnt make the billions of others wrong in their image of such a positive vibe. |

| viktoria 28.03.2004 06:19 |
You know what I think? Most of the songs you've quoted arent primarily gay or bisexual, they're just "sexual" . It's just that people know that freddie was gay and therefore start rethinking the lyrics.. Which does'nt mean that some songs don't make you think- dreamers ball, millionaire waltz... I like the diskussion though, very much indeed! Seems everbody is having fun on the topic! LOL, Vika |

good olf fashioned lover boy! of course! and you take my breath away, always thought this song was dedicated to a man... |
| Sonja 28.03.2004 15:51 |
"I Want To Break Free" sounds gay-ish! Not the lyrics and it doesn't have anything to do with the video either. It's just the beat that sounds gay-ish to me! In "I Was Born To Love You" he sings "You are the ONE for me, I am the MAN for you" and he doesn't refer to either man or woman and that's why I always thought it's dedicated to a man. Pointless maybe... but just what I thought. Where as in other songs he did sing about women e.g. Mother love "...that my woman gives me sweet mother love" and in "7 days" he sings about a girl, but that one was written by John anyway. And I love "Tear It Up", I think it's one of the sexiest Queen songs ever! |

Well, that makes sense, but I don't think John would intentionally write a song that sounds like it belongs IN a gay bar. Who actually came up with the music for that one? |
| bean_the_queen 29.03.2004 18:49 |
'One Vision' Although not conventionally a homosexual song. How could you ignore this line? 'One man, one man, One bar,one night,one day, hey hey Just gimme gimme ... |
