5th September 2021 would have been Freddie Mercury's 75th Birthday. The legendary front man of the legendary band Queen. This was record a couple of weeks ago and I was not planning to play this, but a lady was speaking to my dad and told him that she had watched me all through the pandemic. It was for her a release and escape from the lockdown and she really enjoyed what I was doing, especially my playing at John Lewis when they put out a Yamaha grand piano as part of their Christmas campaign with Elton John.

I played Bohemian Rhapsody as well as some Elton John songs there when I went down. It was my first "big" video, and if you have not seen it, check it out! https://youtu.be/UFvnAhHBX64. You will see that so many things have changed from that first video - the tempo, the feel. I had not watched the movie yet and watching it had helped a lot, as well as just growing up some as well. I think I can "connect" more with the music and lyrics and I play how it feels not just the notes or the music. The bit that gets me are the lines at the end. I did not realise I nod to the those words until now!

"Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters,
Nothing really matters to me"

Also, isn't it funny how life repeats? It's almost like we're in The Matrix! I am in an Arsenal top playing Bohemian Rhapsody at the Elton John piano and there's a boy wearing a Captain America top watching me! Just like the last time, but I am older, and he is younger!
