Queen - These Are The Days Of Our Lives
[1991]
Album: Innuendo
Written by Roger Taylor
FACTS:
The video was the last Queen video to feature Freddie Mercury in person. Rudi Dolezal and Hannes Rossacher of DoRo Productions filmed the footage used in the video on 30 May 1991..
Freddie Mercury, Roger Taylor and John Deacon were present at the shoot; Brian May was filmed later in the year and added in digitally, as he was out of the country on a promotional tour at the time of the shoot. Following rumours about Mercury's health, the video was filmed and released in black and white to hide the full extent of his illness.
In the video, Mercury wears a waistcoat with pictures of cats that was made for him by Queen costume designer Diana Moseley. With his knowing farewell look straight at the camera, Mercury whispers "I still love you" as the song ends, which are his last ever words on camera.
