They all Want to Break Free...

It's a pretty memorable image isn't it? Freddie Mercury with his vacuum cleaner & heels, the other members of Queen dressed in women's clothes for the I Want to Break Free video (1984). A concept that was reportedly proposed by drummer Roger Taylor, the video parodied the long-running British soap opera Coronation Street.

It's a look that's often imitated, with varying levels of success. Sometimes in public, sometimes in the safety of people's homes. Through the wonder of social networking, many people have shared these images or been cruelly exposed by their "friends". Here follows some of my favourites...

Ming the Merciless mustache!
You hardly notice the mustache...
Check out his dual cyclone!
About as tidy as my kitchen...
