Linda, Take heart, I believe that you are a very sane person (although groggy from lack of sleep), but you make perfect sense. I am also a Queen fan. I think Freddy Mercury was one of the finest entertainers ever. With the musical ability of Brian May and the others they had a class-A show. Their references to "mama" do fit in the catagory because it is in the context of mother to child advice. As a guitar player I tend to judge a band strictly on their musical abilities but Queen stood out to me mostly on their stage presence. I first heard Queen when I was in high school and was unimmpressed because of the homophobia thing. I have grown since then and have learned to appreciate the music for what it is. I was sad when Freddy died. I would never live his life style but I did recognise his talant.
