It's amazing how many people I know have depression issues (including me, of course). And FWBF has been pretty much overlooked since its time .... I like it too … and for Freddie it was something quite important … at the time of writing it he was also in a very sad place. I don't think Freddie suffered from depression as such, but he was in a lot of emotional pain, and in this song he was determined to make something that would have some power to cheer people through bad spots. The verses are very original, I think … little anecdotes which are pure Freddie, but the chorus, which in a way might seem the simplest part, gave him much pause for thought. And we all chipped in ideas, when asked! I think my most notable contribution was to turn the words around at the end, so that “FWBF” comes last instead of second to last.... Freddie was tickled by that. But Freddie definitely saw this as something like Champions - something that could be a uniting force for our listeners.
