Yes, cannot resist the Roger. Oh, Morrison has to share it, damn it, there's only about fifty Greek Gods and only one for wine and merriment. I could have said 'Pan' but it didn't really fit the mood. And I *loved* his little smile there at the beginning of that clip, absolutely classic. So it was iconed. And if you had a primary school teacher that looked like that, that's pretty fucking funny!
He only looked like Freddie cos of the beard, which was exactly like that one. I remember sitting reading a book about Queen once in the car and actually doing a double-take because in one he so looked like Mr Goodman (who was almost as cool).
And I've been thinking about it, but in some ways, Freddie is as Dionysian as Jim, he just didn't necessarily make such a big deal out of it. Hey! Maybe Jim is Dionysus and Freddie is Bacchus. Am I now looking Too Much into it?

Date: 2004-01-06 02:37 pm (UTC)I don't know about the Dionysus one so much cos I hear Dionysus and think Morrison! I'm getting me that 'Hello Darling' one, man!
And I've just realised that the 'Freddie Mercury' one reminds me of my headteacher at primary school. Mr Goodman had a beard just like that.
