“All rock musicians are deaf… Or insensitive to mellow sounds.”
- Marc Bolan
I’ve often wondered if that’s the case with a lot of music genres 
Nice of mister Bolan to clear it up!
Haha, I often wonder that myself!
And yet many rock musicians such as Bolan himself were more than capable of producing mellow, lush music. I gotta wonder what it must be like to be in their shoes

“It was obvious that Freddie had not got long to live, but he just wanted life to be normal, and to make as much music as humanly possible. He said, ‘Keep writing for me, let’s keep recording stuff. Then you guys can finish it when I’m gone.’ So he had an amazing acceptance himself."
— Brian May on Freddie’s last days 
That’s a great quote^^!

"Ever since I was a young boy,
I’ve played the silver ball.
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them all.
but I ain’t seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall.
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball!
He stands like a statue,
Becomes part of the machine.
Feeling all the bumpers
Always playing clean.
plays by intuition,
The digit counters fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball!
He’s a pinball wizard
There has to be a twist.
A pin ball wizard,
S’got such a supple wrist.
How do you think he does it?
I don’t know!
What makes him so good?
ain’t got no distractions
Can’t hear no buzzers and bells,
Don’t see no lights a flashin’
Plays by sense of smell.
Always gets the replay,
Never seen him fall,
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball.
I thought I was
The Bally table king.
But I just handed
My pinball crown to him.
Even on my favorite table
He can beat my best.
His disciples lead him in
And he just does the rest.
He’s got crazy flipper fingers
Never seen him fall.
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball!"
- The Who - Tommy
Out of order, I show you out of order. You don’t know what out of order is, Mr. Trask. I’d show you, but I’m too old, I’m too tired, I’m too fuckin’ blind. If I were the man I was five years ago, I’d take a FLAMETHROWER to this place! Out of order? Who the hell do you think you’re talkin’ to? I’ve been around, you know? There was a time I could see. And I have seen. Boys like these, younger than these, their arms torn out, their legs ripped off. But there isn’t nothin’ like the sight of an amputated spirit. There is no prosthetic for that. You think you’re merely sending this splendid foot soldier back home to Oregon with his tail between his legs, but I say you are… executin’ his soul! And why? Because he’s not a Bairdman. Bairdmen. You hurt this boy, you’re gonna be Baird bums, the lot of ya.
