(hennemusic) Freddie Mercury has always been considered larger than life, and a 15-foot bronze statue of the late Queen singer has helped add to that perspective for the past eight years from its regular home in front of the Dominion Theatre in London's West End.

The 15-foot bronze Freddie was on the move this week from London to Liverpool, where the Liverpool Echo reports it has arrived in the city to celebrate the hit Queen and Ben Elton musical, "We Will Rock You," which will run at the city's Empire Theatre in September.

The London landmark, to which thousands of fans flock yearly to pay their hero a visit, is sure to turn heads in the famed hometown of The Beatles; it will tower above shoppers on Paradise Street until the end of June to help promote the musical. more on this story
