| They had something on Queen on VH1 - on that they said that this song was some kind of mockery or spoof of the English upper class... | |

| thank you metaluna for helping me understand. It's nice to met someone with all the answers, I believe I prefaced my comments, and I know when it was written relative to the DIAGNOSED cases of AIDS. If you think AIDS wasn't around before 1985 you're dumber than you look. I said it can work, like other songs can be made to work AFTER an event if you try. So if you are offended stick it. IF you recall Freddie denied he had AIDS until about the day he died, so It's just possible he may heve been( brace yourself and your sensibilities) lying. | |

| Thanks :) Now see, I do find a couple of problems with the AIDS interpretation, though. First, not all the lines fit. I mean, what the hell is the Bismillah and Scaramouche for? I think mine clicks a bit nicer, but that's just me...many people like the AIDS interpretation... ...so who am I to doubt it ; ) | |

| I think that this is one of those songs like "Stairway to Heaven"...No one knows what it means (not even the author), but it's still one of the best ever. | |

| I really don't think Freddie was talking about the AIDS epidemic: it was 1975, they didn't even know what AIDS was. Once he said the song was auto-biographical, but I really don't know what that meant. | |

| I'm not sure about the details, but I've always thought of this song as Freddy's battle with AIDS. It sort of makes sence, realizing that when he speaks of killing a man, he is speaking about himself, and that he is acting as his own judge and jury. It's a song of self-dissapointment that he had gone and killed himself... Maybe it's just me... | |
