Wow, they all inspire me so much! Not only as musicains, but as people too. Roger is incredibly outgoing and funny, Brian is so caring and modest, John is so shy and sweet. But the one who inspires me the most is Freddie.
Freddie is just, as Brian once put it, one of a kind. He had the most beautiful, magnificent voice ever heard! He's strong, brave, talented, charming, smart, stubborn, humble. He had the most incredible sense of fashion! Flamboyant clothing, leather, feathers, leotards all sorts of colors the went beautifully together! He is the only person I know who can actually pull off leotards, and still be respected and amazing! He wrote such marvelous songs! Composures, actually. Bohemian Rhapsody, Seven Seas Of Rhye, and Somebody To Love, just to name a few! He could write songs that are virtually a fairy-tale (Fairy Fellers Master-Stroke, Ogre Battle), some heavy-metal sorts, (Death On Two Legs, Princes Of The Universe) and then such intimate ones, (Bo Rhap, Nevermore, In My Defense). I couldn't write something half as good as that. Actually, I do write songs, and some of mine are inspired by him.
He had a great personality too. He loved to have fun, and I heard he was incredibly caring.
Some of my personality and mannerisms are based on him! I like to say 'dears' and 'lovies' and my dance style is sort of like his. In a way, he's a friend (like liberiangirl_mj said) and a teacher. He taught me to let go of my pride and perform, to dream big and know that anything's achievable! He made me love singing more and try and be as stubborn as possible until you get to the top! All the while, he's charming and handsome! Also, he's the main reason I love moustaches now!
He's been like my light in awful times. He's been there for me, not just his voice coming out if the radio, but I feel a connection to him. I think he's one of the very, VERY few people who everyone can feel a connection to. I sometimes talk to him, tell him I love him. Whenever I feel totally scared, or betrayed, or angry at the world, I know Freddie is there for me. I imagine him telling me to not be afraid, and everything is better. Who knows? Maybe he's really there.
I love you Freddie Mercury, with all my heart.
