Mercury solos again at the end of the song with a loose vocal reference to Duke Ellington’s It Don’t Mean a Thing (If It Ain’t Got That Swing). It is a driving, high spirited and fearless vocal solo. Here, he employs scat singing and the opening syncopated repetition of a single note hints at Ella Fitzgerald’s influence. Mercury demonstrated his versatility, genre crossing and creative exploration on the 1985 song Living On My Own. His vocal timbre could depict a delicate vulnerability, especially with his falsetto, or use dynamic extremes to accentuate lyrics with screams and growls. Strong musicianship, excellent pitch and vocal control enabled Mercury to draw on a broad array of note choices, dynamics, tone colours and vocal effects. These are NOT intentional rephrasing of lyrics, which is called parody.
Misheard lyrics (also called mondegreens) occur when people misunderstand the lyrics in a song. A lyric rock tenor with over three octaves in range, Mercury could belt into his upper register with his signature fast vibrato, or use a controlled pure falsetto with smooth legato phrasing.
