Freddie Mercury Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Freddie Mercury:

I was never too keen on the British music press. They've called us a supermarket hype, and they used to suggest that we didn't write our own songs.

Years ago, I thought up the name Queen. It's just a name. But it's regal, obviously, and -sounds splendid.
