A very peculiar song on 'Innuendo', the last album of Queen released before Freddie Mercury's death. Delilah was the name of Mercury's beloved cat. The song features Queen members... meowing! When Roger Taylor had first heard about the idea of the song, he hated it, but considering Freddie's deteriorating health and the fact that it might have been one of his last wishes - he agreed to do the song.
I wonder what happened to Delilah, is she still alive? What happened to her after Freddie passed away? Did she miss her owner as much as thousands of people do...?
During the first part of the song you can see the picture of Delilah herself. The second cat is my own one, who was the joy & happiness of my life. He was put down on 23 November 2011, just a day before the 20th anniversary of Freddie's death...
Lyrics:
Delilah, Delilah
Oh my, oh my, oh my
You're irresistible
You make me smile when I'm just about to cry
You bring me hope, you make me laugh and I like it
You get away with murder so innocent
But when you throw a moody you run claws and you bite
That's alright!
Delilah, Delilah, oh my, oh my, oh my
You're unpredictable
You make me so very happy
When you cuddle up and go to sleep beside me
And then you make me slightly mad
When you pee all over my chippendale suite
Delilah, Delilah
You take over my house and home
You even try to answer my telephone
Delilah, you're the apple of my eye
Meeow, meeow, meeow!
Delilah - I love you, Delilah
Ooh, you make me so very happy
You give me kisses
And I go out of my mind ooh
Meeow, meeow, meeow, meeow
You're irresistible - I love you Delilah
Delilah - I love you
You make me very happy...
Oooh - I love your kisses
Oooh - I love your kisses
I love your kisses
I love your kisses
I love your, your, your kisses
I love your kisses...
