Freddie Mercury only lived 45 years, but like Elvis Presley (42) and John Lennon (40) before him left behind an incredible legacy in such a short time.
The Queen singer, real name Farrokh Bulsara, lost his battle with AIDS on November 24, 1991.
A few months later, the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert took place, led by Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon.
Three years on, Queen would release their final album, Made In Heaven, featuring Freddie’s posthumous vocals.
Today, it’s been over three decades since the British icon died, but he still has a special part to play in the middle of Queen and Adam Lambert concerts, with an emotional on-screen performance of Love of My Life.
