At least you had that. I had many I thought were friends, dozens, but they really weren’t, or aren’t. I’m only 50 and I know that when I kick the bucket, there’s probably a maximum of 4 people going to be at the funeral. Maybe I can revive some old friendships, I’ve tried over the years, but everyone’s so caught up in their family or job - they just don’t care anymore. So you may be sad about your friends passing, my father feels similar, but my parents are out and about, meeting new people, making friends. Since you were able to have such wonderful friends, even seven of them, you might just find ONE more? Don’t give up. I hope you’re still around, not dead and gone. You carry a spark I envy you for.

Oh bud Im so sorry for your losses... My thoughts are with you...

That keyboard intro, after nearly 51 years of life, is still one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. And another is the instrumental orchestral harmony in the middle section. Brian is somewhat embarressed (I think) about this song being about his pet cat. But I happen to think that pets of all kinds are to be valued just as highly as familly and frends. They ARE are families. Beautiful cats, beautiful dogs, beautiful birds. And all other pet animals.

All I noticed: -Depressed and full of story song -The lyrics composed by Brian plus the childhood cat -4 birbs which is them, later they are 2, reminds Freddie died and Deacon retired. -Plus above, the scene of 4 is the part where they raise to be legends, and then the 2 is lost -The giant robot means they were fallen champions

I just lost my pet and this song helps me to find comfort. Thank you.

I listened to this song so many times without any context, and I realized what it was about when my first pet, my beautiful female dog, past away a year ago. I was just grieving her and listening to some songs while working at home when this one came up, and it hit me... then I made a video about my lovely friend and used this song for background music. After uploading it i read about the story behind this song, and it amazed me it was about a kitty that passed away. What a kind warm song. I love Queen, it gave me hope in my teen years, when I was so depressed I wanted to commit suicide, but I kept listening to all the albums my father had at home, he had most of the Queen vinyls, but I bought the ones he didn't had at fairs and music stores with the money my mother gave me for lunch... Your songs and my dog friend gave me hope, gave me reasons to be alive. You even have songs that try to prevent suicide in the title, like "Don't try suicide", also another song that helped me when a girl left me in high school was "Jealousy", and a lot of Hot Space songs were really good for my psyche. My family helped, but I really had a lot of self esteem issues... Time changed me a lot, but now I am in a race for stopping self esteem, I don't care about my looks, but my health either... I stopped doing exercise... and I only work and study all day... I'm 31. I have to start listening your songs again, I don't make myself time to be happy... Well, I love this video :)

This song makes me remember my ex-girlfriend former cat, she decided to return him because he was clawing all her stuff, and when she did, I broke down in tears completely, because I couldn’t bring him home since I live with my parents. I still miss that little furry black dude a lot... Everytime I sat on the couch he jumped on it and sat on my lap to be cuddled. I love you, Zyon, and I am so sorry I couldn’t bring you with me 😭

Lyrics ~ She came without a farthing A babe without a name So much ado about nothing Is what she'd try to say So much ado, my lover So many games we played Through every fleeted Summer Through every precious day All dead, all dead All the dreams we had And I wonder why I still live on All dead, all dead And alone, I'm spared My sweeter half instead All dead and gone All dead All dead, all dead At the rainbow's end And still, I hear her own sweet song All dead, all dead Take me back again You know my little friend's All dead and gone Her ways are always with me I wander all the while But, please, you must forgive me I am old but still a child All dead, all dead But I should not grieve In time it comes to everyone All dead, all dead But in hope, I breathe Of course, I don't believe You're dead and gone All dead and gone.

I always thought Freddie was singing it. Surprised to learn that one just now. makes the song much better in ways that makes them Queen.

The way Brian sings the 'while' at 2:19 gets me everytime

News of the World has to be one of the most eclectic albums ever released. From the aggressive punk of "Sheer Heart Attack" to the bluesy "Sleeping on the Sidewalk," to "Who Needs You" with its Latin maraca theme, the complete raw weirdness of "Get Down Make Love," this incredibly sad ballad sung by Brian, and the lounge lizard finale "My Melancholy Blues..." And who had ever written a song like "We Will Rock You" before that? They really pulled out all of the stops on this album.

I just realised it's Brian who's singing. This song is so beautiful, calm, but profund at the same time. I love the piano instrumental and the sudden drums. Queen has seriously and definately changed my life with their songs. If Roger or Brian happen to read this, thank you so much for all you've done guys. You have left a legacy that will never be forgotten. May Freddie rest in peace and I hope John is alright too. Thank you!!

This has to be one of the most beautiful and touching songs I know. My childhood cat, of which I lived with for as long as I can remember, just passed away, and this song speaks every emotion I feel. I have been listening to this song on repeat, tearing up at every lyric. The line 'of course I don't believe you're dead and gone' is so powerful; in every corner of my house I can still see my cat curled up asleep, his spirit will never be gone. He gave me unconditional love all my life, and always knew when I needed his comfort. I will truly miss him.

Every time I hear it it floors me. This song never disappoints...😢😢😢

Pixie is now my favorite member of Queen.

This made me cry harder than I've ever cried. And to hear that this was Brian singing this? Woah..

It all connects, guys. The cat is Brian’s (ofc because the songs written about the cat). The Robot is Freddie because he does sing in the song, but the animation wasn’t made until MUCH later. Which means Freddie passed away before the animation was made. The birds at first, are Freddie, Roger, John, and Brian, but then at the end of the video, just the two birds represent Roger and Brian. That’s because Deaky retired, and Freddie died. It all CONNECTS GUYS.

All Dead: Reminds Freddie And Gone: Reminds John I LOVE THIS SONG

QUEEN FOREVER!

This song has touched my heart since the moment I heard it back in 1978. Knowing it is about Brian's childhood cat makes it that much more special. Amazing how close we can become to our furry friends, and how sad and empty we feel when they leave us. Bravo, Queen! This is a song for the ages, love the video. "But of course I don't believe..."

Everyone in this fucking band can sing better than I could ever sing, seriously, a band full of great singers and great instrument players...what a blessing

This song makes you plunge into Brian's sadness and feel his pain. This is the power of music and song

I listened to this song over and over after my older brother died. When we were kids, he and I made a $5 bet about "We Will Rock You" and "We Are The Champions". I said they were one song with two parts. I didn't know enough about music to call them "movements". As they were always played back-to-back on the radio when the song debuted (and still are usually), I figured the second part was like a lyrical response to the first song. Years later, sports fans would make that observation by singing "We Will Rock You" to taunt their rivals, and "We Are the Champions" in declaration of victory. Of course, my brother had it in the bag before we even made the bet. He'd been to the department store previously and saw the 45 (For younger readers of this comment, a single used to be released on a small record with a quarter-sized hole in the middle that spun at 45 rotations per minute or "RPMs".) To settle the bet, we had to go to that same department store, our mother obliging. When we got to the store, my brother went right to the single, showed me the songs' titles on opposite sides of the record, and demanded payment. Five dollars was a fuck ton of money for an eight-year-old kid. For younger readers, a "fuck ton" is 2,000 pounds of sexual intercourse, measured by teaspoons of....nevermind. Anyway, he took my money, bought the 45 with it, and we listened to it over and over at home on the phonograph. For younger readers, you could not play 45s in a car. He would have had to buy the 8-track tape, which would have been silly since we didn't have an 8-track player in our car. I miss you, John. 30 years now you've been...all dead...and gone.

My cat just died, she looked exactly like the one in this video. She was curious, playful and a ray of sunshine in my cloudy life. This song is making me cry buckets right now. RIP my little angel. ❤️

Who but Brian would imagine a chorus with a catchy "all dead" repeated often? And it really works too. I love this song. Yet another favorite now.

News of the world is my mother's favorite album-the first time I saw the cover from the record I freaked out with the scene of the robot killing people in a rock concert.

I'd like to share a short story here that happened to me. First, you should know that Queen has been my favourite band from since I was young. Intrigued by seeing Queen on TV when I was a small child, I listened to all their albums/CD's as I grew up, bought their Greatest Hits LP at the age of 12. You should also know that growing up I had a pet cat. It was the type of cat that was more like a dog, very affectionate, my best friend. It would wait for me coming back from school, stay with me the whole evening & sleep on my bed at night. Then, at the age of 20 I one weekend came back from university and my cat had died that week. I remember that I immediately played this song to seek comfort in my loss and grieve, allthough at the time I did not know what the song was about. 30 years later, this video clip was made for this song & it became clear to me that Brian May had written it for the same thing that had happened to him.
