Forever The Funniest Quote In The World Ever

bob said it’s MY turn to be the gay monkee

I'm done

I’ll never get over that one interview of Freddie in 1984 when he’s talking about how Russia considered Queen too outrageous and the interviewer was like “but Elton wasn’t???” and Freddie went “no he’s alright, he’s kind of middle of the road” when this was Queen in the 80’s and this was Elton John

These rockstars have the nerv to make seven minute songs🙄 and they're GOOD so you HAVE to listen to them or else Brian May will have to kick down your door

Oh, sure, I know Queen. Here's a nifty, not-at-all-devastating fact for you: Brian just wanted Freddie to be loved. It's everywhere.

It's in his dislike for Don't Stop Me Now, a song that—in Brian's mind—represented drug use and intense partying that was leading Freddie away from the band, toward people who didn't care about his wellbeing. It's in Brian saying he regrets not looking after Freddie better.

It's in his writing Save Me to give Freddie an outlet for his heartbreak, but also subtly tell him, "Hey, you're a loving partner. You deserve one in return."

It's in Brian helping Freddie write It's a Hard Life, with expressing his heartbreak once again. It's in Brian watching the video for that song and interpreting the setting as a depiction of Freddie's emotionally unfulfilling personal life during the Münich era.

It's in Brian stressing that Freddie was always in serious, monogamous relationships, searching for the right person. It's in Brian defending Freddie's relationship with Jim and calling it loving.

It's in Brian having a soft spot for Don't Try So Hard, a song representing Freddie finally securing his dream relationship.

BRIAN JUST WANTED HIM TO BE LOVED.

beatles lore is so crazy because. people will be like "wait you don't know about the time ringo got stuck in an interdimensional rift for 2 years??" and you just have to assume they're telling the truth

Monkee history question for a fic

I'm writing a sequel to my Torksmith fic and I'm trying to remember something that happened early in the series where I think Peter Tork was in the studio and the producers were not nice to him or said something unkind about his singing ability and Peter immediately ran to Mike about it, who was like, "THEY SAID WHAT" and stood up for him. Did I make that up in my head? Something like that happened, right?

I'm going through my Monkees Day-by-Day book to get more details about stuff that was going on during this period, but I don't know if that will be captured in it or not.

Mike's like, I never liked him, but of course I drove to the airport to pick him up and let him live in my house but I never LIKED him, jeez.

The airport-pickup story (and this was months after Peter had moved in with Mike and Phyllis during the filming of the pilot; after filming, he went back to New York):
