Who Wants To Live Forever Lyrics
i think this song is quite optimistic.
at the start the song acknowledges the brevity of our lives and ultimately death takes it away - how unfair - there's no chance, and who doesn't want to live forever. but then...
you CAN 'live forever' - but only when there is no future or past, living in the present (touching lips and fingertips).
the lesson in the lyrics: don't dwell on the past, don't worry about the future, be here in the the now 'forever is our today'
change the focus of your mind and you can live forever...
Over analysis on this one. It was written for the film 'Highlander', Connor Macleod id immortal, Heather his woman isn't, he has to watch her grow old and die, and the song reflects the melancholy of his position. Clever beautiful song, but wholly commercial.
Surely it was written for the movie, but the sharpest lyrics always carry the possibility to be intepreted in many ways that can bring to deeper meanings.

illninofan, if you had actually read Romeo and Juliet, you would understand.
So, in your own words "Dont try to analyze something you know nothing about". ;)
This is the soundtrack of the film "Highlander".
what a great song :)

I wish people would make comments worth reading. Most of these are not worthy of typing out and pressing the button to "Add." "Save Me" from this stupidity.
Back in '91 or '92, not too long after Freddie died, the rest of the band did a benefit concert, with all sorts of other musicians joining them. Seal (who I didn't know anything about at that point) did an incredibly moving rendition of this song.
One of my favorite Songs from Queen, Freddy's Voice is so powerful, too bad he had to leave this world behind so early!
It's opera-like. It's extremely beautiful. I can't think of an interpretation of it, but I hope that someone here can try.
