Happy 65th Freddy Mercury!

Thanks to Google
Web search engine giant Google honors and pays tribute to Freddie Mercury on Freddie Mercury Day on what would have been the Queen singer’s 65th birthday with a special and interactive google doodle.
In the animated Google Doodle, Mercury is shown singing on stage in front of screaming fans, sat on a throne wearing a crown and dressed as a woman, and strutting about with a hoover. The over 100-second long animated short even features Freddie Mercury wearing a jumper and a crown and flying down to sit on a throne. The second longest doodle by Google after Charlie Chaplin’s google doodle, is designed by Jennifer Hom and Google Doodle designer Ryan Germick. Germick added: “The Freddie Mercury doodle video has a lot of fun, goofy stuff to celebrate what an incredible song writer, fashion icon, and musical innovator Mercury was.” Previously, Google featured rock legend and e-guitar designer Les Paul in another interactive doodle, that attracted interest in immense amounts.
