show must go on

"The Show Must Go On" is a powerful rock ballad by the British band Queen, released as the final track on their 1991 album "Innuendo." Written primarily by guitarist Brian May, the song reflects Freddie Mercury's determination to continue performing despite his declining health due to AIDS, which was not publicly known at the time. Mercury's vocal performance, recorded under difficult physical conditions, is regarded as one of his finest. The song's themes convey resilience and the will to carry on despite adversity. It was released as a single in October 1991 and has been performed live at significant events, including the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert in 1992 with Elton John on vocals.
