Innuendo
Queen Lyrics
One two three four
Ooh ooh
While the sun hangs in the sky and the desert has sand
While the waves crash in the sea and meet the land
While there's a wind and the stars and the rainbow
Till the mountains crumble into the plain
Oh yes, we'll keep on trying
Oh, we'll keep on trying
Yeah
Just passing our time
Oh oh
While we live according to race, colour or creed
While we rule by blind madness and pure greed
Our lives dictated by tradition, superstition, false religion
Through the eons and on and on
Oh, yes, we'll keep on trying, yeah
We'll tread that fine line
Oh oh we'll keep on trying
Till the end of time
Till the end of time
Through the sorrow all through our splendor
Don't take offence at my innuendo
Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh
Duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh
You can be anything you want to be
Just turn yourself into anything you think that you could ever be
Be free with your tempo, be free, be free
Surrender your ego be free, be free to yourself
Oh oh, yeah
If there's a God or any kind of justice under the sky
If there's a point, if there's a reason to live or die
Ha, if there's an answer to the questions we feel bound to ask
Show yourself destroy our fears release your mask
Oh yes, we'll keep on trying
Hey, tread that fine line
(Yeah) yeah
We'll keep on smiling, yeah
(Yeah) (yeah) (yeah)
And whatever will be will be
We'll just keep on trying
We'll just keep on trying
Till the end of time
Till the end of time
Till the end of time

"Innuendo" was pieced together "like a jigsaw puzzle." The recurring theme (with the Boléro-esque beat) started off as a jam session between May, Deacon and Taylor. Mercury then added the melody and some of the lyrics, which were then completed by Taylor.
The middle section was primarily Mercury's work, according to an interview with May in October 1994's Guitar Magazine. It features a flamenco guitar solo, followed by a classically influenced bridge, and then the solo again but performed with electric guitars.

The middle section was primarily Mercury's work, according to an interview with May in October 1994's Guitar Magazine. It features a flamenco guitar solo, followed by a classically influenced bridge, and then the solo again but performed with electric guitars. This section is especially complex, featuring a pattern of three bars in 5/4 time (reasonably uncommon in popular music) followed by four bars in the more often used 3/4 time.
The "You can be anything you want to be" section features a very sophisticated orchestration, created by Mercury and producer David Richards using the popular Korg M1 keyboard/synth/workstation. Mercury had arranged and co-arranged orchestras in his solo career, and closed the previous Queen album with "Was It All Worth It", which included a Gershwin-esque interlude also coming from an M1 synth. The bridge section in "Innuendo" is in 3/4, showing once again Mercury's affection for trinary metres: "Bicycle Race" is another one with main sections in 4/4 and middle-eight in 3/4, and some of his best-known pieces (namely "We Are the Champions" and "Somebody to Love") were in 6/8, as would be his last ever composition, "A Winter's Tale".
Steve Howe and Mercury had been friends for several years, since they ran into each other quite often at the Townhouse Studios in London. Yes had been recording at Mountain Studios in 1978 shortly before Queen bought the Swiss studio, and Asia's debut album was produced by Queen's engineer, Mike Stone.
Paul Sutin had released his debut album in 1988 and began recording the second. Steve Howe had played on the first as guitarist and bassist, and Sutin asked him to produce the follow-up, which Howe agreed. This time Howe didn't play bass, only guitar and keyboard, but all of the drum parts in 'Voyager' were recorded by his son. Howe travelled to Geneva to lay his parts down in early 1989. On a break he drove to Montreux and stopped to have lunch. There he ran into Martin Gloves (who had worked for Yes before and then was Queen's equipment supervisor), who told him that Queen were in the studio at the moment.
As soon as Steve Howe went into the studios, Freddie Mercury asked him to play some guitar (according to producer David Richards, who had worked with Yes in the past as well). Another version is that Brian May was the one who asked him to play the flamenco bit. May admitted in a 1991 interview that he couldn't play the bits Howe recorded.

Mientras el sol cuelga en el cielo y el desierto tiene arena
Mientras las olas rompen en el mar y se encuentran con la tierra
Mientras hay un viento y las estrellas y el arco iris
Hasta que las montañas se desmoronen en la llanura
Oh, sí, seguiremos intentándolo
Pisa esa línea fina
Oh, seguiremos intentándolo, sí
acaba de pasar nuestro tiempo
Mientras vivamos según la raza, el color o el credo
Mientras gobernamos por locura ciega y pura codicia
Nuestras vidas dictadas por la tradición, la superstición, la religión falsa
A través de los eones, y así sucesivamente
Oh, sí, seguiremos intentándolo
Pisaremos esa delgada línea
Oh oh, seguiremos intentándolo
Hasta el fin de los tiempos
Hasta el fin de los tiempos
A través del dolor a través de nuestro esplendor
No te ofendas por mi insinuación.
Puedes ser lo que quieras ser
Solo conviértete en cualquier cosa que creas que podrías ser
Sé libre con tu tempo, sé libre, sé libre
Entrega tu ego, sé libre, sé libre de ti mismo.
oh oh
Si hay un Dios o algún tipo de justicia bajo el cielo
Si hay un punto si hay una razón para vivir o morir
Si hay una respuesta a las preguntas que nos sentimos obligados a hacer
Muéstrate - destruye nuestros miedos - libera tu máscara
Oh, sí, seguiremos intentándolo.
Oye, pisa esa línea fina
Sí, seguiremos sonriendo, sí (sí, sí)
Y lo que sea será
Seguiremos intentando
Seguiremos intentándolo
Hasta el fin de los tiempos
Hasta el fin de los tiempos
Hasta el fin de los tiempos.
Maribel Fandos

This is the voice of Farrokh Bulsara
This... is the voice of Freddie Mercury.

I ´m sorry, my english is not so good, but I have to say it; Freddie didn't stop singing because he was dying. He died because he could no longer sing. This was, this still IS one legend and legends never die. my dad loved him, I love him and my children love him too. Freddie and the queen never dies❤

Don't let it make you sad darling ( as Freddy might have said ; ) ) We will all have our last weeks, in a way maybe it's a gift to know that, like he did. He is also a great inspiration to me as well. The Show Must Go On.
