no relevance to another. That statement denies that there could objectively be a best singer of all time. Which can be a very dangerous slope to go down, for if one claims that no one could ever be the best, they are denying the fact that Freddie Mercury is indeed that greatest singer of all time. With his 4-octave vocal range to his vocal transparency, and with his vocal dynamics, proves that he is in fact the greatest of all time. “A killer queen” and “dynamite with a laser beam”, perhaps…

Mercury is a rocky planet and is the closest celestial body to the sun in our solar system. The planet is covered in many craters, boulders and pulverized dust. The planet lacks an atmosphere to help dictate temperature changes throughout a day, so the planet can experience many temperature swings multiple times per day. After a number of observations, it has been inferred that the planet has been geologically inactive for billions of years. There are no signs of dust storms, clouds, rivers…

This essay will endeavour to identify the classical influence on rock music within this genre (Lowe, G 2014) and look at other influence on the band Queen, such as,…

consideration, the new piece I chose to write about is Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. Bohemian Rhapsody has plenty of dramatic contrasts, frequent shifts in tempo, and changes in rhythmic character from section to section. The piece was written by Freddie Mercury in 1975 for the bands album: A Night at the Opera. I believe everyone should listen to Bohemian Rhapsody at least once in their lifetime. The song has more variations and contrast than most songs we listen to today. Even though this piece…

Mercury or Drake was always trained to treat people in a terrible way by bullying them and annoy them, so the other person would faint. Drake was poisonous because it was a naturally occurring element and that it is found in air, water and soil. It is also highly toxic form (methylmercury) which builds up in fish, shellfish and animals that eat fish. Now when Drake meets gold or Ivory his life may or may not change. That you will find out as you read on. One day Drake was at his house, when he…

Mercury:The surface geology of the planet Mercury can be very easily described as - Rocky. Because of this it bears as strong resemblance to the earths moon. This is due the the heavily cratered surface which has been caused by asteroids which has caused these giant craters in the planets surface, leaving pulverized dust and boulders behind. The reason all of the asteroids were able to hit the surface of this planet is because its magnetic field is not strong enough to deflect or slow them down…
