ROLE MODEL
By Nikita Markin, 8c

I think everyone have ever heard about such person as Farrokh Bulsara. Oh, you haven’t? What if I tell you that this is Freddie Mercury? I predict you have heard something about him and his world-famous group “Queen”. Now I’d like to tell you about him, his life and why his a good role model for everyone without exception.

From young age Farrokh began to call himself Freddie and took a fancy for rock’n’roll. However no one could think that this hobby would make him world-famous. After revolution in his native Zanzibar his family moved to England. Despite the move Freddie continued to take fancy of rock’n’roll and began to draw. His family didn’t have enough money, so Freddie began to play in different groups until he met such group as “Smile”. On the initiative of Freddie group was renamed as ”Queen”. Freddie also drew the logo of the group. Since then their exciting career began. Farrokh wrote the most of “Queen’s” famous songs like “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “Seven seas of Rhye” etc. After some tours “Queen” was giving a concert in Japan. Japanese fans showed to the guys how popular they were. Freddie understood that he was famous as he had dreamed in childhood. However it was just the beginning.

After realizing that he was as popular as “The Beatles” Freddie began to take alcohol and drugs. But he was strong enough to fight this addiction and defeat it. In 1984 the group began their new world tour. Apotheosis of tour was in 1985 when in Sydney group gave a concert in front of 2 million people. For long time it was the biggest concert in history. However in 1986 there was first information that Freddie had HIV. He understood that this was the end, so he tried to write and record as many songs as he could. On the 23 of November 1991 he officially said in the public that he had AIDS. And on the 24 of November he died was. At age of 45 the legend died. The world was mourning.

To sum it all up during of his quite short life he was doing what he really loved. He was really purposeful. Moreover he achieved all by himself and I think it’s really important to know. He started his career because of his family, to feed it, he is really caring. When he had alcohol addiction he fought it. It also shows his strong will. Money and fame didn’t change him he still was a little bit expressive and simple man. After his death he left a lot of money to AIDS and HIV foundation and his family; it shows that he is charitable. I think people should follow him, because he is really caring, purposeful, strong willed, charitable and he was just simple person, even when he was famous.

Rest in peace, legend.
