flyfisher Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Freddie Mercury only got the Queen gig after Brenda refused to wear her crown and stormed out. Fortunately, freddie has no such misgivings. [attachment=176159:mercury.jpg] And still on the Queen theme . . . .

UglyDog Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Lots of albums feature hidden subliminal messages. If you play One Direction's "Up All Night" album backwards at half speed, it sounds absolutely dreadful. However, if you play it forwards at the correct speed, it sounds even worse.

Japhet Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Freddie Mercury had a vast collection of barometers. The Corrs have a collection of 'top shelf' magazines. Jarvis Cocker collects porcelain spaniels Huey Lewis once fronted a current affairs programme in his native Middlesborough. Jools Holland isn't Dutch but can ride a bicycle none the less.
