The Miracle

Every drop of rain that falls in Sahara Desert says it all,
It's a miracle,
All God's creations great and small, the Golden Gate and the Taj Mahal,
That's a miracle,
Test tube babies being born, mothers, fathers dead and gone,
It's a miracle,
We're having a miracle on earth, mother nature does it all for us,
The wonders of this world go on, the hanging Gardens of Babylon,
Captain Cook and Cain and Able, Jimi Hendrix to the Tower of Babel,
It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle,
The one thing we're all waiting for, is peace on earth - an end to war,
It's a miracle we need - the miracle, the miracle we're all waiting for today,
If every leaf on every tree, could tell a story that would be a miracle,
If every child on every street, had clothes to wear and food to eat,
That's a miracle,
If all God's people could be free, to live in perfect harmony,
It's a miracle, we're having a miracle on earth,
Mother nature does it all for us
Open hearts and surgery, Sunday mornings with a cup of tea,
Super powers always fighting,
But Mona Lisa just keeps on smiling,
It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle,
The wonders of this world go on,
It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle,
The one thing we're all waiting for, is peace on earth and an end to war,
It's a miracle we need, the miracle, the miracle
Peace on earth and end to war today,
That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends

I lived with this song when I was youger..The video was super too. No matter what, Freddie was the greatest. For me, Queen is stil the greatest band ever.

Queen are my personal favourites, and I loved the video to this song, those little boys were so cute, and the freddie one fitted the part perfectly....

Indeed.
"Too much love will kill you", "Show must go on" and "Who wants to live forever" are in my Top 20 of all time.

"Dont Stop Me Now" "The Show Must Go On" "The Miracle" "I'm Going Slightly Mad" and possibly "I Want To Break Free"... oh yeh "Under Pressure" "Innuendo" "The Invisable Man" "Hammer To Fall" "Bohemian Rhapsody".... Damnit, every Queen song ever, I cant choose.... They each have their own specail 'thing' to them.... Farhook Bulsara was the man....

He was born in Madagascar, or what? From Iranian parents, right?

Went to school in Zanzibar (apparently with my english teacher's father, how cool), studied art, switched to fasion design (man could he draw), run a market stall in London, lived in Penny Lane (hehe), met some people, wrote some songs, became my idol....

Some useless trivia.... my brother was born the exact day after the Freddie Mercury tribute concert....

ZanZibar, that was it...
So your brother was born on April 3, 1992? The day after Benny Hill died.

umm.... no, April 21st 1992....

the tribute concert was 20th.... I'm pretty sure..... damn you, you made me doubt myself....

My mistake. April 20th. The day Benny Hill died, Adolf Hitler was born, Freddie MErcury was celebrated (Axl rules) and I met my baby. In different years of course.

How cool, in a weird way, I think, Ummm, yeh......

Yeah...
