Rhapsody Song of the Day

Song: Who Wants to Live Forever
Album: A Kind of Magic
Artist: Queen
Selected by: Jen Guyre
Date: November 24, 2008

Scribed by Queen guitarist Brian May for the 1986 movie Highlander, this poignant power ballad fittingly commemorates the untimely death of Freddie Mercury, one of rock 'n' roll’s most prolific and influential frontmen. He left this world on November 24, 1991 -- just one day after announcing to the world that he had AIDS. The memory and unparalleled work of this extraordinary vocalist/pianist indeed still lives on.
