OK everyone!

Well, it's time to get those thinking caps out and dust them off again. If you remember, in June we had a CD to commemorate the birthday of Freddie and now, due to popular demand, we are going to try for another!

As a refresher for the family members and for our newbies that have joined us since, this is how this works. You think of a song that reminds you of Freddie. It can be a message you want to send him, a song to describe how you feel about him, or just a song that reminds you of him. Your choice! Everyone gets to choose one song and then we have our tribute CD!

If you want, you can post the title and artists along with the lyrics, but please tells why you chose the song. Thanks for reading and best of luck finding the perfect song!

I want Good lookin man sung by Leann rimes!
If that song doesn't fit which one will? LOL

victorianscribe · 10-23-2003, 12:01 AM

Okay, I'm going to be morbid, I guess; starting back in '78, the song "Even Now" by Barry Manilow always reminded me of Freddie.

Danisel331 · 10-23-2003, 03:59 AM

Here are the lyrics to your song victorianscribe.

Even Now
When there's someone else who cares
When there's someone home who's
Waiting just for me
Even Now
I think about you as I'm climbin' up the stairs
And I wonder what to do so she won't see and
Even Now
When I know it wasn't right
And I found the better life than what we had
Even Now
I wake up cryin' in the middle of the night
And I can't belive it could still hurt so bad

Even Now
That I have come so far
I wonder where you are
I wonder why its still so hard without you
Even Now
When I come shinin' through
I swear I think of you
And how I wish you knew
Even Now

Even Now
When I never hear your name
And the world has changed so much
Since you've been gone
Even Now
I still remember
And the feeling's still the same
And this pain inside of me goes on and on
Even Now

Even Now
When I have come so far
I wonder where you are
I wonder why its still so hard without you
Even Now
When I come shinin' through
I swear I think of you
And God I wish ya knew
Somehow
Even Now

Here are your lyrics Ms Angie.

I've been catchin' a glance, do you like what you see?
Even across the room, your eyes been talkin' to me.
Easy to tell you've turned some heads
In your day
Hopin' you'll choose the next slow dance
To walk my way

Nothin' like a good lookin'.
Good lookin' man.
More 'bout you than meets the eye.
I wanna know first hand.
Baby I've got this strong feelin'.
Strong as a woman can.
I'm lookin' into the face of love,
And it's a good lookin' man.

How did you get sweet fit
Right in each of those arms?
Talkin' as if we're all alone,
Workin' your charm.
I'm likin' that edgy temper,
You try not to show.
Notice the shyness in the way,
You smile real slow.

Nothin' like a good lookin'.
Good lookin' man.
More 'bout you than meets the eye.
I wanna know first hand.
Baby I've got this strong feelin'.
Strong as a woman can.
I'm lookin' into the face of love,
And it's a good lookin' man.

Come a little closer ...
Closer yet ...
The longer and longer I'm with you,
The better and better you get!!!

Nothin' like a good lookin'.
Good lookin' man.
More 'bout you than meets the eye.
I wanna know first hand.
Baby I've got this strong feelin'.
Strong as a woman can.
I'm lookin' into the face of love,
And it's a good lookin' man.

Come a little closer ...
Closer yet ...
Oooooooh, Closer yet ....
Closer yet.

My vote is Everybody Plays the Fool by The Main Ingredient. I'm sure since Freddied liked the Main Ingredient that he remembered this song & liked it. To me it fit him. I found the lyrics online. Here 'tis:

Everybody Plays the Fool by: Main Ingredient, The
Lyrics by: Jim Bailey/Rudy Clark/Ken Williams
Peak: 3
Year: 1972

(Spoken)
Okay, so your heart`s broken
You sit around hoping
Crying and crying
You say you`re even
Thinking about dying
Well, before you do
Anything rash, dig this

Everybody plays the fool sometime
There`s no exception to the rule
Listen, baby, it may be
Factual, may be cruel
I ain`t lying, everybody
Plays the fool

Falling in love is such
An easy thing to do
And there`s no guarantee
That the one you love
Is gonna love you

Ooh, loving eyes, they cannot see
A certain person could never be
Love runs deeper than any ocean
It clouds your mind with emotion

Everybody plays the fool sometime
There`s no exception to the rule
Listen, baby, it may be
Factual, may be cruel
I wanna tell you
Everybody plays the fool

How can you help it
When the music starts to play
And your ability to
Reason is swept away

Oh, oh, oh, heaven on
Earth is all you see
You`re out of touch with reality
And now you cry but
When you`re through
Next time around
Someone cries for you

Everybody plays the fool sometime
They use your heart just like a tool
Listen baby, they never
Tell you so in school
I wanna say it again
Everybody plays the fool

Listen to me, baby
Everybody plays the fool sometime
(No exception to the rule)
No exception to the rule
It may be factual
May be cruel sometimes
Everybody plays the fool

Listen, listen, baby
Everybody plays the fool

Also Freddie's Dead by the late Curtis Mayfield Mayfield reminds me of him. I know it was about a drug abuser/dealer etc & Freddie wasn't that but it has a line in the beginning of it about how his woman was his trouble & that so fit our Freddie plus our Freddie died...

Pitooey · 10-23-2003, 08:57 AM

YAY.......... I love this..... I'll go put on my thinking cap now.

MariposaLKB · 10-23-2003, 09:44 AM

This is a song by the group Survivor (probably best known for the song "Eye of the Tiger" from one of the Rocky movies).

I See You In Everyone

Every night, a fleeting glimpse of candlelight
Chases 'cross the atmosphere -- but you're not here
and I see the shape of moonlight on the cityscape
But now the skyline wears a shroud
I hear your voice in every crowd
Listening for your footsteps in every hallway
Watching for your headlights around the bend
I can see you standing in every doorway

Out in the street, in every glance
I see your reflection, I fall in a trance
Can't you see what I've become
It's making me crazy, I see you in everyone

Day by day, I watch the moments slip away
And traces of reality come back to me
Then I see your face, somewhere in a distant place
The fantasy has gone too far --
I close my eyes and there you are
I can see you standing in every doorway
I can feel your heartbeat -- I hear your voice
And hiding in my shadow you're with me always

Out in the street, in every glance
I see your reflection, I fall in a trance
You can't know what you have done
I see you in everyone, in everyone
In the night I see your eyes
From every direction a different disguise
Can't you see what I've become
It's making me crazy, I see you in everyone

Pitooey · 10-23-2003, 10:24 AM

Okay.. I came up with my song for Freddie.

The reason I chose this song is because I loved him so much in my youth. As the years go by I still miss him. He would've been my age now if he were still with us. When I hear this song I picture Freddie..... He would be getting older too. He's looking into my face as this song is being played.

Here it is..........

Landslide from the Dixie Chicks

I took my love and I took it down...
I climbed a mountain and I turned around...
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills...
Well the landslide bought me down...

Oh mirror in the sky
What is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life

Well I've been afraid of changing cause I built my life around you...
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older too...

Well... Well I've been afraid of changing cause I built my life around you...
But time makes you bolder
Childen get older
I'm getting older too
Well I'm getting older too

So take this love and take it down...
Yeah and if you climb a mountain and ya turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide bought me down
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well maybe.....
Well maybe.................
Well maybe the landslide will bring you down.

The END - Dedicated to Freddie and his fans...
From Jenny Lee...................

I know i am going to love this cd I love all the songs!!!!

victorianscribe · 10-23-2003, 11:59 AM

I'm sitting here getting tears in my eyes, but I'm also happy, because I've finally found a group of friends who feel the same way about Freddie as I do.

Prince · 10-24-2003, 01:57 PM

JennyLee,
Not sure if you realize this or not..but there are two versions of the song "Landslide." The original is by Stevie Nicks and then there is the version by the Dixie Chicks. Do you have a preference?? I have both versions.

WoW I knew that Stevie Nicks wrote the song but, I never heard her sing it. I've only heard the Dixie Chicks version. So I guess I pick them...

Luckymama58 · 10-24-2003, 09:26 PM

I would like to see "Superman" by Five for Fighting on the next CD. I can see Freddie in this song, because I think everyone thought he could handle everything, and this song speaks about the fact that even a superman is vunerable.

"Superman" by Five for Fighting

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird, I'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train and
It's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd, but don't be naive
Even Heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed, but won't you conceed
Even Heroes have the right to dream but
It's not easy to be me
Up, up and away, away from me
It's all right, You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy or anything.

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

It's not easy to be me.

Prince · 10-24-2003, 09:30 PM

Great choice Luckymama. I almost picked that song for the last CD...I think it suits Freddie to a tea.
