1) Choose a song by queen (any, not ness' a single) 2) think of a concept music video Mine is 'Ride the wild wind'. Roger is racing around a track in a racing car with the uniform on There are clips with all the guys in an open top sports car cruising down a motorway in the sun with freddie leaning back, arms open to the wind. There are also clips of freddie on a motorbike with a girl on the back, wearing full leathers. Where the band perform, they are on a cliff top over looking the sea, and its windy and they all wear black. Mooodyyyyy! How about you lot? any ideas? |

The Hitman. Im going around on a bike with a bazooka on my shoulder trying to blast the likes of Breanna and HeMaTaSiugudiuyglkn....or whatever his name is. |
Matti 07.08.2004 13:27 |
I like that one. |
Pim Derks 07.08.2004 13:32 |
I already see Freddie sitting on a bike, in leather... He barely could walk in 1991, but riding a motorbike wasn't a problem for him! |

I think oppo wants you to "create" a video in an ideal world ie one where Freddie wasn't ill. |

For My Melancholy Blues, I think the band would be onstage, performing to an almost empty bar, with Freddie singing and playing the piano. And then, at the end, they all get up to leave, but nobody really responds, since they weren't focusing at all on the performance. Re-reading it, that seems kind of depressing! |

Brian would have to be at the bar getting drunk for this one ;) |

Oh, this was a serious topic... well then! Yeah, the motorcycling seems a tad unlikely. |

I did this 11 years ago and actually created the video. It's for I'm Going Slightly Mad and is relatively simple. Just me lip syncing the song in 2 different settings, with inserts of me acting like an idiot from other video stuff I'd done. And I used the edited version from GHII to save myself 14 seconds worth of work. I used a broom for my guitar and an upright vacuum for the mic stand. Some wigs and make-up involved too. I do have it preserved on DVD-R now, but no way to rip & share it, not that I would anyway ;) |

I dont like to ask about fact, i think it stirrs things too much for my liking sometimes! |

Keep Passing the Open Windows Freddie wandering through an office building of some sort, starting in the lobby and making his way up using elevators and stairs. Intercut with all 4 members popping into the offices of bored, melancholy employees and encouraging them to follow on their carefree romp through the building. Climax is a performance on the roof and perhaps a big group hug afterwards. |

ok Ogre battle all 4 guys are on horses in armour *dreamy sigh* and they ride out to the mountains. A huge army of knights join them. Then suddenly a drum crash and the ogres come streaming down the mountains. They cant go east so they gotta go south. At the screams there is a massacre as the guys bravely fight swinging their axes and swords heavily. Brian has a bow and arrow but an ogre breaks it and corners him at some rocks. Suddenly an electric guitar falls from the sky, and he plays it. the loudness of it kills the ogre. and it lights up and the riffs explode killing the ogres. But Brian is far away from the other guys, he runs towards them with his guitar but an ogre steals his guitar and the guys are trying their best to slay off the ogres. Then John sees Brian in trouble and swings his axe as it rurns in to a bass guitar and lasers shoot from the strings slaying the ogres that surround Brian. Roger's daggers turn in to drumsticks made of solid crystal which hold powers which shoot ice and freezes the ogres. He uses them and Freddie sings on top of a mountain while this is going on and tells the story. Close up on Freddie on "keep a lookout" bit. After all the screaming they all lay on the ground injured. Everyone had been killed but the four as they rise from the mud and get on their horses and ride off in to the sunset holding their legendary weapons up high. |

Yeh but we cant let Queen die! :P The ogres dont know it cos they are playing dead huahaha |
Adam Baboolal 07.08.2004 18:00 |
Gunpowder Gelatine, I like your idea cause I can really picture it. Nice mood. Can anyone on here animate? Perhaps an animation alongside the song? I wish I'd invested more time in animation when I was young. *Sighs* Peace, Adam. |

Geez I totally missed the point of this didn't I? I did describe my 'personal Queen music video' though. I should start reading the posts and not just the subject lines. |
jasen101 07.08.2004 22:20 |
I would have loved it if they turned QUEEN II into a movie. Wouldn't that be so cool? Plot: set in a strange land of sorcerors and kings. The white Queen's power is fading. The Black Queen has been trying to destroy her. The Fairy Folk have gathered round the new moon shine to think of a way to help the white queen overcome the evil powers of the black queen and free her slaves! There are massive battles involving ogres, victories, and celebrations as the crown of the new freed kingdom is passed from Father to Son. Drama 2004, ****, 90 minutes. |

the way you interpreted this topic is actually quite cool! Maybe we should set up a page where you can upload you own Queen videos- either ones featuring yourself like yours, or your own montages. I often put together collages of different bits of Queen footage to my favourite tracks- sometimes they even look quite proffessional! |

Fight from the Inside: Simple performance video. But when Roger sings "Attack from the rear" you see a shot of freddie in his local gay bar, wearing a black leather suit "attacking" a gay bikers rear. |
Brian's sweet sister 08.08.2004 10:38 |
OK it's the prophets song so it shouldn't be that vague the song starts with a sound like wind, so what i visualise is this.......The screen is all white with thick cloud and the wind blows it so the thickness breaks up and you can see Freddie's silhouette appear in the mist. You slowly begin to see his full figure. He wears a torn white flarey shirt with black leggings and boots. He walks up a mountain where a cottage is in the midst of the deserted land. He walks in and everything is bare but a table; which at sits the seer (Brian) He wears all black; like he wears in the it's a hard life video. The seer is a schizophrenic man who has been driven mad by lonliness and deceat. He is sometimes wise and sometimes mad. Freddie needs answers to the irddles of life which he faces and seeks enlightenment. He has been told to listen to the seer in his dreams. The seer knows who he has been waiting for and nods at Freddie keeping a stern face as Freddie approcahes him and sits opposite. The first verse starts at this time. Freddie begins telling the seer the dream he had. The seer clutches a crystal ball which sits in the centre of the round table. (2nd verse) the screen fades in to Freddie's dream. Freddie is at the foot of some stairs which are white and lead in to the sky. His feet are bare and his soles are black. He is in a deserted place with a dusty ground. An old man clutches a dove and starts to walk up the stair. Just as he walks up them he turns and stares at Freddie . He puts a hand on his heart and Freddie understands his thoughts and feelings. The man lets the dove go and it flies up above as he disappears. The dove returns to Freddie and transforms in to a man which the old man once was........this is Roger. Roger is dressed in white trousers and a white shirt. The dusty ground below them turns in to lush grass. Roger takes his hand and they walk along the grass and see lots of visions that they both share about the Earth. They see trees collapsing, Animals dying from gun shots that shoot from nowhere, people running around screaming in pain. One man stops...John and stares in to Freddie's eyes. Freddie feels his mental pain and shrieks in pain. John walks in to a river and sinks with it. Then everything disappears again. Roger stares back at Freddie. The ground starts shaking and their hands drift apart. The rain starts to fall and animals run two by two like from Noah's ark. Water rises at the ground. Freddie panics as he runs in to the midst. "Flee for your life" Freddie just keeps running while singing. His hair moving with the motion and the wind. and his white clothes beating against his body. He stops running when he see's a blast of red fire in front of him. Out of it appears Brian; the seer. Freddie flinches out of telling the seer his dream. Brian (the seer) is now clutching Freddie's hand like Roger was. Freddie's eyes widen as he swiftly lets go in shock. The seer smirks as his eyes have a glow of red and eccentricity in them. Freddie appears scared and flees from the cottage. He realises his feet are bare. He stops and cautiously turns back. Brian stands there at the foot of the hill which the cottage stands with a morbid look on his face. Freddie doesn't know where to go. The seer urges him to return. The seer holds out his hand to Freddie. Freddie decides to take his hand once again. He slowly walks to him and clutches hold of his hand. Brian transforms in to the old man. The old man holds a dagger. He drops it and withers away in to dust. The screen cuts in to blackness. Freddie is lying on the ground now. He stands up. He is asleep in an orchard. He grabs his head and starts shaking then he laughs. He had a dream within a dream. He walks out of the orchard. But still I fear and still I dare not Laugh at the Madman across the road outside the orchard stands the seer; Brian looking at him. He speaks something to him. No words come out his mouth but Fre |

I can sort of imagine She Makes Me, with Brian singing, not really looking at the camera, as the colors begin to shift and blur until they fade to black, after which all you hear is breathing. |
Pim Derks 08.08.2004 14:22 |
Body Language. Just 4 and a half minutes of big cocks, asses and moustaches. No Brian, Roger or John in this. Just Freddie and 49 look-alikes with moustaches, sunglasses and lots of body-hair, all doing "things" with each other. It ends with an "I do everything with everyone" quote or something on the screen, after which there is a 10-second flash of all kinds of news-items of Freddie's death. Now that would be an "Stop Aids Now" commercial! |
