HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRIAN AND MANY MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Favourite Brian May song is either Save Me, Too Much Love Will Kill You, or Who Wants To Live Forever? Though I also love '39.
AND OF COURSE WHO COULD FORGET FAT BOTTOMED GIRLS, my own personal anthem lol.
My favourite Brian momen? Hmmm... I'm not sure but I love when he and Freddie were in concert performing Save Me and Brian was playing a little on the piano while Freddie was introducing the song but as soon as Freddie started singing, Brian forgot to play the piano. Which was ironic cuz the lyrics to the beginning of the song are It started of so well, then once Freddie finished the line, he turned to Brian and yelled "It didn't start of so f***ing well, now did it? Lol. Then Freddie counted out, 1 2 3 4 and started the song again with Brian.

Best moment was seeing him live and up close in 2006. I took my two sons to see Queen & PR because I wanted them to see one the the best guitarists in the world. We were 5 rows from the stage on Brian's side and 3 seats away from the catwalk. Heaven!!! OMG! See many great moments! When he sang "Love My Life" which was his favorite song written by Freddie tears just streamed down my face. It was so beautiful! You could really tell how much he missed he dear bandmate (and friend). The best part was when he played "Last Horizon". It was extraordinarily beautiful and it was as if we were transported through space and time. My youngest son at the time had a royal blue mohawk with a devil's lock that came past his chin. Brian saw him in the audience and smiled and nodded. When PR saw him he smiled and gave a "thumbs up". Pretty cool!
This is my favorite pic of Dr. Bri I took that night!

During Live Aid when Freddie sang, "Is this the world we created" Brian played the Guitar so beautifully ... The song and Brian with Freddie made the moment beautiful ..
Oh and Happy Birthday Brian May.. My Grandmothers Birthday is today too!

My favourite song is '39 from "A Night at the Opera." It's so cool that he made a song about time relativity so fun and catchy.
My favourite moment is when Brian May played the Brit anthem "God Save The Queen" from Buckingham Palace in honor of Jimi Hendrix's version of the American anthem "Star Spangled Banner."
