Is that it? Because they got on with their own careers and never sang together live, you conclude they didn't get on? Why did Bowie do so much at the Tribute show then? Why has UP been in his set pretty much ever since?

I've notticed from interviews with David he was very uneasy talking about Freddie..it seemed like there was tension around the two of them..it was either competition or a general dislike

You've said that twice now. Once more withour a source and I'll have decided you're a WUM.

Miami Vice wrote: I don't know about personal animosity concerning David Bowie and any Queen member, but they did have musical disputes. David Bowie recorded backing vocals for the song "Cool Cat" and later asked to have them removed because he was not satisfied with the song.

Drowse1 wrote: I always thought they did get along but who gives a toss if they did or not? I can't remember either of them ever slagging off the other in any way so where do you get your idea that they didn't get along? And we don't have to show you a site were it says they got along. You show us one were it says they didn't!

Oh dear. You see a word in a song and assume you understand it. All The Young Dudes was released in 1972. Queen barely had a record contract at that point. Freddie was never in the habit of sticking glitter on his face. That was Marc Bolan. Presumably it didn't rhyme, so something odd like "artistic licence" was used.
