Freddie Mercury died aged 45 on November 24, 1991, after losing his battle with AIDS.

Now 34 years on, surviving Queen members have been paying tribute to their late frontman.

Sir Brian May shared a special collage artwork of Freddie zooming out, with his solo track, Just One Life, playing over it.

The guitarist captioned his Instagram post: “The most beautiful memories are the saddest. Remembering the one and only Freddie M. Thank you @nenu_ph. [the artist]. Bri.”

The 78-year-old rock star also addressed the negativity of some fans.

Sir Brian added: “I’m going to say this only once, to you people who think you’re so clever. This has nothing to do with AI. It is the work of an artist whom I was pleased to credit, above. And I’m reminded again that, in commenting, if we have only a negative comment to offer, it’s better to shut up. Bri.”
