I love, love, love it. It is so well made and funny. I love the black and white scheme, the bananas, the kettle, the big hairy gorilla, everything! Does anyone else love it as much? If not which Queen video do you like the best?

Yes, poor Freddie. It is so sad at the same time. He did fabulously in the video, so funny, yet he moves me to tears as well, and some of his other songs do too.

It was The Miracle video with the young children as mini Queen.

Poignant, deliciously funny summing up of the band's career, Freddie's predicament, and the spirit of the album, while also showing typical Queen innovation and style. Top stuff by any standard. But as others have said, Queen never really made a bad video - from pioneering the art form with Bohemian Rhapsody, they always had something new and challenging and often very funny to offer - I Want To Break Free was something special, with them all becoming gemale stereotypes, The Invisible Man (I think) with young fans as mini-Queen members, the joyfully "Dan Dare" style and scope of Radio GaGa, the spare look of "We Will Rock You" letting the music speak for itself, and even the deliciously baffling video for "Breakthru" with the runaway train - they always had a style that was unique to Queen.
Best ever? I think either I'm Going Slightly Mad or Radio GaGa.

I like the video but not really love. I think it is a very sad video, the last real thing he did. He says goodbye in a great way. I always get a bit of a sad feeling when watching this video clip.
How they shot the video is remarkable, in black and white. In this way less visible what Freddie's state was. You should imagine yourself so sick and then still work for hours to get this video done.
Though it is a hilarious video with all kind of funny things. Favorite part is Brian May with the pinguins. Great footage.
I have a making of somewhere of this clip, quite interesting to see how they shot it. All small little sets and quick takes.

Yeah, it's cool, but as another answer here has said, poor Freddie was suffering at the time; I don't think Queen ever made a bad video, let alone a bad single. For me they were the greatest British rock-band there was or ever will be and Freddie?
Freddie was the greatest show-man ever; If you ever saw Queen live, you know what I mean.
Oh, and my favourite video? It's got to be 'A Kind of Magic'.

yes, it's fun. Brian May with that tiny guitar. But, when you think of what Freddie was going through at the time, it makes me sad too.
My fave vid of theirs is 'I Want To Break Free'. Good fun too.
