prime minister but it. takes. you cannot reforms. next legendary queen rock guitarist and songwriter brian may want to say for sure in art's about life with the stars he tells us about working alongside front man freddie mercury reveals his alter ego as an astrophysicist. it's great to have you with us today sir thank you for being so recently i was going through the glass bead game and he writes about music and what he says about music is that except it's art it's also true power over nations and human cells and then many people say that exactly why music is compared to exact sciences like mass
12:34 am
. so i never really got that because i finished product conservatory and i always failed my math class now you as a man of music and science can't tell me how music is related with science or exact science like math for example it's a hard question. yeah obviously there are mathematical things in music but ironically i think the most important things in music are the instinctive things so i don't know quite how that works out except maybe it gives you a balance but yes i love pure science and i love music and they're not the same for sure but. certainly throughout history there have been connections and people who were immersed in both of them you know from leonardo da vinci to. patrick moore you know. it seems to be that we maybe it's an obstruction thing maybe people who like these things don't like the clutter of the world don't want the complications
12:35 am
of the world that we live in you know the these pieces of stuff they just like to find the essence of life so maybe pure science is in some way close to be a sense of nature and music is close to the pure essence of human beings at this point do you see yourself as a man of science or a man of music. depends on the during the hour. do you believe in god because i'm. uncle richard dawkins there who is a very strong atheist probably had a little kind of argument with him in a hundred ninety minutes because he he kind of i think he felt that he proved there was no good and my feeling is that's not a very scientific attitude because if you if you make a pronouncement you have to have evidence if you say there is no good where is the evidence there is no god you can say i don't know you know being an agnostic to me is a scientific point of view which is supportable but you know he's a very clever man he has a different point of view to me but in my experience i have felt at times that
12:36 am
there is a god of some kind i don't subscribe to any religion organized religion best of different matter but if your question is about right then maybe there is a god but if there is a god we have very little idea of what that god might be that's inherent in what we are we have very little understanding i think do you think we're alone out there. it's only opinion i have a strange feeling that maybe we are alone i don't know why this is you know but you you've spoken about the loneliness state you experience after each performance. and so i know because i've spoken to a couple of astronauts and been to the moon at for the past three days and they also speak about that fast loneliness that they experience when they're out there in space. say some music in your opinion give you that comfort of loneliness. oh yeah maybe they do for a moment the i'm a bit ironically you can maybe that's what makes you more aware of loneliness
12:37 am
because you limps it's clinton and it's wonderful togetherness we people are with the universe and then the reality is you lose it so maybe that's why maybe that's why we feel lonely i do feel a lot of loneliness but is it a comforting feeling. it's more comforting. but music when you're in it for the moment and science when you're in it for the moment it is all encompassing so yeah you don't have time to think i was going to ask you that earlier in your life you know it's the band and. explore exploration for celebration was it sex drugs and rock'n'roll what was it for fame money it was never for fine because i don't particularly enjoy it was never for money because i was always happy with what i have even if we only had fish fingers. it's just because it was there i suppose it was exciting it was unknown it was a door that you thought you could walk through but then thirty years on you want
12:38 am
back to finish your ph d. that you just dropped out from what you do that it was unfinished business. it's like you have a circle some place in the circle just doesn't quite. make it back task accomplished but it didn't have to do anything with going to go towards your parents because you dropped out earlier on in life and maybe they're a little disappointed in you because you went off to work and we're all you know there was a moment you know your stuff that mean. yeah my dad was very against it in the beginning because he. i think he saw in my education and the place i'd go to the place that he would have liked to have got to he never got his degree so it always held him back in his life so he saw me with this fantastic degree in. science and the whole world opening up to me and it looked like i was walking away from it and he found that just. so yeah he was very upset and we often talk about.
12:39 am
the. various things happened but eventually he came to see a story. he said to me. when. the funny thing was you know he was very against the time i was doing starting off with queen he was drawing little maps and charts of how the record sales were doing and you know he was following with great detail what i was doing so he was always kind of into it he just didn't perhaps one of. say that to me. obviously when you think queen and see you playing next to freddie mercury all those great hits come to my mind and then understand that when you reach that level of success with someone you definitely have a special law and you form a special bond and i've heard you in another interview say that you still see freddie in a strange way can you elaborate on that it's like a family member you lose them but you don't quite lose them because you take the
12:40 am
review. and we were so alone together. you get that closeness from somebody particularly in the creative environment either through framers or think you do. success but in the creative environment you learn to to know what somebody else might be thinking you might not always be right but you have a feeling for them and so i still feel and roger does as well in a particularly good applies more if we're working as queen in this and we think what would freddie say and you probably would say this. yeah he's part of the creative process because he's part of what we are because we really chiseled this thing out all together me pretty and roger so i mean for a while i didn't want to you know i was very. it was a point you know the grieving process where i just didn't want to talk about green didn't want to feel that it was there even the acceptance history but i sort of got through that and now i regard it as part of my life which will never go away and it
12:41 am
shouldn't go away because it's a big part of what i worked to create to question what do you think happens after death after death you know the big questions in there. i don't know. i'm inclined to think that our view of the universe is very simplified and you know in a way that you know beetle crawling over a piece of paper has a very limited view of the universe so i think we also have a limited view so this existence that we know maybe just a very small part of the whole picture you know and i'm excited to think that that may be so. i'm not counting on it because maybe maybe at the end of your life but i don't know. you know one thing is certain you can't use it as an excuse you can't say ok you know this life is really bad but the next one's going to be ok you know
12:42 am
you have to make the best of where you are so i can't not ask you i know that you've been very successful and yet you were on the verge of suicide what stops at that point that fear of death or love life. yeah i've had very bad depression which a lot of people deal with at certain points what stops you killing yourself. i think what stopped me was the fact that i had children and people who depended on me and people who love me. and you just think in a sense is a very selfish thing to kill yourself because you make so much may see you know you do terrible things to the people around you that would have been over for my children. and maybe i would like to tell you that there was a glimmer of hope that there wasn't at that time and now i remember driving and seeing the bridge and thinking i could do this and i just thought it would make you know i had to somehow discover what what is going on.
12:43 am
and yeah it would be a bad thing to do because of the people around me and you come out more empowered that once you actually. i think if you do certain kinds of work you come out more empowered yeah and i did i did kind of chalk my life in and checked myself into a depression clinic which was actually the best thing i ever did because it was a new start it's like restarting your car you know and i had to ditch my preconceptions and that work definitely gave me a new. a new energy and it wasn't instant but it gave me the tools to deal with life in a slightly different way i think you have to get to the point where you throw everything away. because that's the only way you can make a new start i realised that if i did not deal with the depression i was no use to anybody so it's the same kind of logic is not killing yourself you know. killing yourself is really bad for everybody around you but was it staying in depression is
12:44 am
very bad for everyone around you so it's not you struggling and trying to keep doing what you've been doing the whole time because it's it's going to be the same thing you know you have to somehow get outside. and trust that you can come back in as. a person who can deal with things if. you've got all the money you want educated men you love staring at stars would you consider maybe flying as a space tourist you know i don't like being a tourist it's funny that you say that you know if i was flying in there was some reason for it into space i think i would enjoy it more it's like being here. i keep busy in my life and it's quite hard for me to take a week off just to come to turn around and although i love to eat but there was an excuse to come you know i had work to do i had things which could be achieved and i think that's made me and joy the sunshine and and the beach more the fact that i'm sort of part of the life of the sign and i love the sun and anyway and it's because of the really it's not because of being a tourist so you know if there was some reason to go into space if i thought it
12:45 am
would. stop people torturing animals i would do it in. but i would enjoy it have you spoken to some of the brilliant brains our times for the past three days what do you think what you think could be or is high priest of the twenty first century the high priest of the twenty first boy oh boy a boy. maybe nelson mandela. because he has a very important thing apart from wisdom and knowledge. he has the key of forgiveness which i think saved his country completely from a blood. and i think people the people who run these planets studied under nelson mandela then we would definitely get a better planet and i think that would be more than anyone else i think he has the key right thank you very much for this interview him.

tight going into the final round of the gulf's greenbrier classic in west virginia anthony kim has a one stroke lead there over rookie scott stallings kim carded his lowest round of the year and eight under par sixty three to top the leaderboard this way you're giving me out right lead on the whole forty all running one hundred thirteen yards right up to the pin or score schoolings here is just. behind the nine and the overall theory is finding some form after missing the cut at his last thirteen corner it's quick and it's even harder to call it the r.h. open three men share the lead there david how among them after hitting their best round of the day a seven under par sixty four always finding the green jess today he's joined at the top by fellow englishman simon dyson a birdie nicely here. very long so the
12:55 am
strategy is richard green is that without the top setting up his fifth birdie of the day with a great approach on the last hole bad weather though so of course seeing for down the leaderboard he's five shots off the pace. and finally yesterday we showed how n.h.l. netminder bruce gallo was giving up his time to coach youngsters in his home country of russia well we also spoke with him about life in the n.h.l. where he joined the philadelphia flyers to become the league's highest paid goalie and he's looking forward to the challenge. sure they'll feats are very successful i've been using. the heaviest stuff billets video ownership they have always put some highest goal in hockey perspective and always wants to win lose stanley cup or compete for the stanley cup i like this
12:56 am
idea they spend their money and they give it to the players everything they want they want you know they need a result. first of all feeling it's a hard media but i think i'm ready for the to deal with the media and the pressure when they are poor and i signed a contract with the understanding all consequences is could be you know it's i'm i'm ready for this and i want to be a guy who want to carry this team because i bring the phoenix coastwise to play out we're going to have a success it's partially my fault too you know special this year but you know it's it's. snuff it's new for me. when i play i don't think about the money and when you specially yeah when you
12:57 am
signed a big contract it's nice you you know your family and your children you security know and you can relax and just work you know because you know professional sports so. you can be dual boot durable like. car to injured you know where your kind of car you're doing then everything can top and you know and when you ship your date's do you same think like a coach trusting you it will give you more. natural locks this is. more kind of a freedom to play in. the in the media of nine easy one day where just start calling come over to the united states there was they came from the different country right there right now you know and they have a different mentality if they came from the same homes so we union you know when
12:58 am
you don't have anything right and when you came to united states probably would ever feel like. if you want to. dream to find dream if you want to buy some food you can you can buy you want you can buy a car you know you you can you can get whatever you like right. compared to the soviet union and probably some players was not ready for this you know and. maybe some players had a problem with the soup discipline right now is everything good you can have sent them like here you know and when you came right now to the united states most of the players. why they came here. actually. players who was before us and right now who play in n.h.l. they have a good reputation they have no problems with. management brock geez you know. i mean they added you.
