I Was Born To Love YouFreddie Mercury1rank/position

Queen is a rock band still beloved around the world.
Among them, vocalist Freddie Mercury continues to radiate a charismatic presence despite the time that has passed since his death.
In fact, there was a period when Freddie pursued solo work under his own name.
A signature song from that time is “I Was Born To Love You.” Many might be surprised, thinking, “Wasn’t that Queen?” It’s a masterpiece by Freddie—more powerful and overflowing with love than anyone.

This is an alternate version of a song the late Freddie Mercury recorded in ’86 as the title track for the smash-hit musical Time.
Since it was originally one of his major hits from the ’80s, it carries the flavor of that era.

And I am simply, utterly overwhelmed by his vocal prowess.
