"Mother Love" is the song that has been long rumored that Freddie recorded the vocal track for just a day before passing on from life (Which may explain why the song sounds somewhat unfinished)...The lyrics of the following songs throughout the album are rather depressing: "Heaven For Everyone", "Too Much Love Will Kill You", "Let Me Live", "My Life Has Been Saved" & "A Winter's Tale".

There's something so sad and erily wierd too about an made by someone knowing they were dying and this was for sure their final album. Warren Zevon's The Wind is in the same category.
