Brian May’s moving performances, which included a ‘hologram’ of Freddie Mercury, especially when they performed ‘Love of My Life,’

have been a moving remembrance of Mercury’s renowned presence as well as the ongoing friendship amongst the Queen bandmates.

Since the ‘We Will Rock You Tour’ in 2012, May has incorporated this poignant moment into his live shows.

May usually opens the format with a solo acoustic rendition of ‘Love of My Life.’ A holographic version of Freddie Mercury seems to take over the vocals as the song draws to a close.

A sense of Mercury’s spirit returns to the stage as this moment forges a strong contrast between May’s more meek singing and Mercury’s aggressive vocal style.

An Emotional Bond That Transcends Space A very touching image of May appearing to reach out and grasp the holographic Mercury’s hand represents their enduring friendship and artistic collaboration.

It’s a moment that strikes a chord not only with May, who frequently displays obvious emotion, even to the point of tears, but also with the audience who followed Queen and its members on their journey.
