Queen's upcoming album, The Cosmos Rocks, is the first the band has recorded without the legendary Freddie Mercury, who passed away in 1991. “I feel like he’s still very much part of the band,” May told Rollingstone.com. “We reference him every day. He always really enjoyed Paul’s work. He used to have a go at me in the studio when I tried to have him sing bluesy stuff. He’d say, ‘Brian, you’re trying to make me fucking sound like Paul Rodgers, and I can’t do it!’”
