    Lors de sa sortie, cet album posthume de Queen a fait scandale
paraît-il au même titre que  le dernier album des Beatles. Eh bien
moi je vais vous dire une chose : le titre  "inédit" des Beatles a
été composé  par Lennon alors  qu'il avait quitté  le groupe et ce
titre a uniquement été réutilisé dans un but commercial ! Mais peu
de personnes savent qu'au contraire toutes les chansons du dernier
Queen ont été composées AVANT la mort de Freddie Mercury et sur la
demande de ce dernier. Saluons le courage  d'un homme qui, sentant
la mort  si proche, n'a pas  renoncé et repoussant  la mort de son
mieux nous a offert sa dernière et sans aucun doute plus touchante
prestation ! Jusqu'à  présent, seuls les  enregistrements  de voix
étaient complets et il aura fallu attendre quatre années pour voir
enfin sortir le dernier VERITABLE album d'un groupe de légende.


    Retrouver la voix si unique de  Freddie Mercury  tant d'années
après sa disparition remuera certainement tous les fans et je dois
reconnaître que  cela m'a  profondément  ému. Cet album est  d'une
incroyable pureté, on y retrouve des  morceaux typiques à Queen et
d'autres d'influence plus récente (genre  musique religieuse Noire
avec de superbes  ensembles de  choristes). A  noter que  certains
morceaux sont  très courts car Freddie n'a  pas eu le temps de les
compléter  et comme dans  le  titre "Mother  Love", les  dernières
secondes sont remplies par un extrait de concert avec les fameuses
vocalises de  Freddie. Les  morceaux  sont  très  doux, très  bien
composés et  leur  thème  général reste  l'Amour, la  déception ou
l'interrogation face au malheur humain.

    Voilà un album à  écouter impérativement si vous  êtes déjà un
fan de Queen et qui vous fera découvrir - et  certainement aimer -
un  groupe  grandiose  qui  nous  rappellera  toujours  cet  homme
extraordinaire qu'a été Freddie Mercury.

    Je vous laisse avec  les paroles de 3 morceaux  que j'apprécie
tout particulièrement. Avant de vous quitter, je vous souhaite une
année 96 pleine d'Amour, d'Amitié et  de compréhension et je dédie
"I was born to Love You" à  Estelle que  j'aime  plus que  tout au
monde !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 * I Was Born To Love You
   ----------------------
   (Freddie Mercury)

I was born to love you
With every single piece of my heart
Yes, I was born to take care of you
Every single day...

       Chorus :

I was born to love you
With every single beat of my heart
Yes, I was born to take care of you
Every single day of my life

You are the one for me
I am the man for you
You were made for me
You're my ectasy
If I was given every opportunity
I'd kill for you

So take a chance with me
Let me romance with you
I'm caught in a dream
And my dream's come true
It's so hard to believe
This is happening to me
An amazing feeling
Comin' through


     Chorus


I wanna love you
I love every little thing about you
I wanna love you, love you, love you
Born - to love you
Born - to love you
Yes, I was born to love you
Born - to love you
Born - to love you
Every single day - of my life

An amazing feeling
Comin' through


     Chorus


Yes, I was born to love you
Every single day of my life


Go, I love you babe
Yes, I was born to love you
I wanna love you, love you, love you
I wanna love you
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely
Yeah, I want to love you
Yeah give it to me


 * Heaven For Everyone
   -------------------
   (Roger Taylor)

This could be heaven
This could be heaven
This could be heaven for everyone

In these days of cool reflection
You come to me and everything seems alright
In these days of cool affections
You sit by me - and everything's fine

This could be heaven for everyone
This world could be fed, this world could be fun
This could be heaven for everyone
This world could be free, this world could be one

In this world of cool deception
Just your smile can smooth my ride
These troubled days of cruel rejection, hmm
You come to me, soothe my troubled mind

This could be heaven for everyone
This world could be fed, this world could be fun
This should be love for everyone, yeah
This world could be free, this world could be one
We should bring love to our daughters and sons
Love, love, love, this could be heaven for everyone

You know that,
This could be heaven for everyone
This could be heaven for everyone

Listen - what people do to other souls
They take their lives - destroy their goals
Their basic pride and dignity
Is stripped and torn and shown no pity
When this should be heaven for everyone


 * Too Much Love Will Kill You
   ----------------------------
   (Brian May, Frank Musker, Elizabeth Lamers)

I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong

Too much love will kill you
If can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'cos you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you
Every time

I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose

Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you
Every time

Too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won't understand why
You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end...
In the end.
