Google's Doogle of Freddie Mercury Generates Excitement

Today Google is celebrating his 65th birthday, which would have been yesterday, and was celebrated internationally yesterday. Mercury died in 1991 of AIDS related bronchopneumonia. But like all famous musicians and artists, he lives on in his music. It looks like Google is a big fan of Mercury’s work and chose "Don't stop me now" as the song to accompany its tribute to the man.

Once in awhile Google will produce a video to commemorate a legend or an historical figure of importance. Google has a wonderful Doogle up today, celebrating Freddie Mercury, who was the lead singer and one of the creative forces in the band Queen. Queen had such famous hits as “Another One Bites The Dust,” “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Killer Queen” and many more.
