Alarm clock on fire? That's a teasmade! You don't have teasmades in America? It wakes you up with a cup of tea. They've been around for decades upon decades!😊🫖
Btw: Look up George Barbier's beautiful drawings for Dessins sur les danses de Vaslav Nijinsky: 1913.
for the basis of the ballet designs!
The first time seeing this video we were in the TV room at the ambulance service I was working at. One of the guys commented how pretty the girl in the kitchen was. The rest of us fell on the floor laughing. Had to break it to him that it was the drummer, Roger Taylor. LOL
He IS a very pretty girl though. 😁
Roger/ Rogerina - he can steal your woman AND steal your man ! 😂
I gotta say if a young Roger wanted to go drag it would be hard to know
So pretty
The dancers in the middle section of the video are members of the Royal Ballet. Freddie wanted to dance with them, so they made it happen. Also, Roger Taylor was stunning in drag.
Freddy was an artist in all different definitions of that word. He was a graphic designer, fashion designer, entertainer, songwriter and one of the most unique voices of the last century if not millennium. He had one of those voices that you recognize the moment he starts singing.
John Deacon wrote the song from the male perspective of the women's liberation movement.
The video was meant as a parody of the ITV soap Coronation Street. Freddie is the housewife, John is the grandmother, Roger is the schoolgirl, and Brian is another housewife. The idea of the video come from Roger's girlfriend.
At some point it was inevitable a band named Queen would do a show or at least s video in drag.
This vid nearly screwed there American chances because they dresed as women.
The band and especially Freddie was never afraid to make fool of themselves for having and giving some fun. 😆 Pls, check out Freddie performing The Great Pretender.
John wrote the song, Roger's partner came up with the idea of the boys being in drag (dressing as characters from long running soap 'Coronation Street '. Freddie had offered to shave his mustache, but was told it would be funnier if it stayed. Oh, and the 'on fire' alarm clock was a device called a 'Teasmade', which was supposed to wake the user up with a cup/mug of tea in the morning.
Queen never gets old. And this is one of my favorite songs
I was introduced to Queen in the 70's... I was working as a roughneck... In South and West Texas... Drilling Oil Wells and Gas wells.. Absolutely love Queen from Day One...
This video was a blast. They took chances and pulled it off, I've never performed in drag, so I've never known how to get comfortable like that. This was gutsy, and amusing.
Now you know why this video is iconic 😁
This video was a parody of British soap opera called coronation street
The alarm clock was not on fire. They were called "teasmade" and supposedly to have cup of tea ready for when you woke up.
Yep my parents had one
Yep, a combination alarm clock/ tea maker.
From what I understand, the original Teasmade machines had a reputation of kettle malfunction… but later models were vastly improved.
@@imweakfordeaky I love a Goblin Teas maid😅😅😅
You really need to see “you take my breath away “ live at Hyde Park.
Amazing singer and showman. I think his vocal range was F2 - E6. Wow!
From what I've seen referenced, this video was the idea of John Deacon, the bass guitar player. It was based on classic British comedies and theatrical traditions. As an example, during the time that William Shakespeare was writing plays, ALL roles were played by men.
one of their funniest videos! the whole band, in their full "glory"! 😅
Maggie, It might surprise you but it wasn't Freddie's idea to dress in drag for the video, it was Roger who suggested it.
I'd heard that it was John Deacon, the bass player.
@@OriginalLictre see other comments it was Roger's girlfriend's idea.
The alarm clock was actually a Teasmade. It was an alarm clock that would also brew a cup of tea, so, that it was ready when you woke up.
I just watched a cover of a terrific Queen song that you will just love!!!! The Tenors "Who Wants To Live Forever" featuring Lindsay Sterling. The guys are dressed like cool vampires and Lindsay's violin only enhances the song and video. Tugs at my heart everytime. Hope you are having a beautiful day!!!!❤
Love this song - they pull in Coronation Street, Nijinsky's Afternoon of a Faun...
Hey , thank you so much for your reaction to Queen and I want to break free . I love and live Queen and Freddy
Very sweet! Thank you! 🤗💟 Hope to see you on my Patreon: www.patreon.com/MaggieRenee
Forget the video if you don't like it (.I think the video is brilliant) and just listen to the song ....as it is utterly fantastic.
Hey Honey!
GUESS WHAT…
In 1985, Freddie DID do a few live performances of this song where he did DRESS IN DRAG ONSTAGE.😂
If you want to see, just look for:
“I Want To Break Free” …
Live in JAPAN, 1985.
Freddie is HILARIOUS!😂
Freddie definitely did a costume change for this number when they performed at Wembley stadium back in the '90s - he came onstage in drag, with the hoover (vacuum cleaner) just like in this video - I can't remember if there was a set change as well, or they may just have shown shots from the promo video on the huge screen behind them, I can't remember
@@stevesoutar3405 (Hi, I'm guessing you mean in the 80s....) I'm just curious: Did this happen in 1984? (Because they did more-than-one show at Wembley Stadium in 1984; they just weren't professionally filmed, unfortunately.) The only video footage I've seen with Fred dressed in drag, was from 1985: at Rock In Rio; in Australia (they're both awful video quality, tho) and in Japan (which was the only decent video footage I've ever seen).🖖
I absolutely absolutely adore you, Maggie. You are incredible and I fell in love with you the first time I seen you. Keep on keeping on you are the best. You have an amazing voice of beautiful face and are a treasure to this world.
The alarm clock was probably not on fire, looks like one of those breakfast-in-bed deals that starts brewing tea when the alarm goes off.
Awesome 😊
Bringing up the fun and flavour as only Q could do ❤
The lyrics are so really heartbreaking, it is so beautiful ❤
I love this video. And I miss Freddie.
I love this song
Maggie an epic song long live Queen and love your reaction
Very sweet! Thank you! 🤗💟 Hope to see you on my Patreon: www.patreon.com/MaggieRenee
Avant garde performance, circa 1984 ;D. Freddie's voice never lets you down, but honestly, it was confusing as heck even back when it was new. Remember, MTV banned it ;P
This wasn't their video that was actually banned by MTV. It had happened 2 years before with Body Language which ended becoming their biggest US hit from Hot Space.
Whenever i see the posts about if you could bring one person back for a concert who would it be. I will always say Freddie. Think of the things Queen would do in concert back in the day, imagine what they would be able to do with todays tech
Freddie could do anything and get away with it, because he was so Loved
Love me some Queen! Mom and I went to see a Queen cover band-A Night of Queen-in Lexington,Ky. They were absolutely awesome. My mom had no idea how many songs she was familiar with and liked that were actually Queen songs😂
love your reactions to their cross dressing and the song...remember seeing this live with you
Love this song! Awesome!
He reminds me of my mother-in-law, it's the mustache. 🤭
That little smile/smirk by Roger Taylor gets me every time.
"Look - I'm also a cute girl."
How hot was Roger?!
As a young man encountering Rogerina for the first time, I spent a not insignificant amount of time examining my own stance on gender... lol
One of my favorites. But, "It's a Kind of Magic" from the Highlander film soundtrack is my all time favorite.
This video got Queen banned on MTV and vh1, they thought it was all Freddie's idea to dress up in drag. It wasn't. Freddie said Roger, Brian and John ran to jump into their frocks but they all had fun.
In the 70's Kenwood bought out a teasmaid you'd set the clock and it would make you a cuppa.😅 So not alarm clock 😂😂
You have an incredible voice..
Freddie shaved his mustache for the middle part. He was interpreting Nijinksy in l'Après-midi d'un faune (Afternoon of a faun).
The alarm clock was a Goblin Teas maid. You set your alarm clock and in the morning you had a pot of tea. Think they are now obsolete😅😅😅😅😅😅
What is happening u ask?
Simply.
A delirium!
tells the story that Freddy Mercury sang Opera in his solo career in the USA.
When you said "what is happening", they recreated all of their previous videos that they made over the course of their career to that point and made it into one video
Mercury's voice was amazing.
The lead guitarist of Queen, Sir Brian May, is a nationally known ASTRO physicist who helped design the international space station
Yeah guys, this is like totally what it's like every day in class, we are totally like so crrrrazy, you like wouldn't even believe it!
Big hit in Australia. The whole soap opera parody was hilarious. No one understood why the US banned it.
Men in dresses 😂
Eu poderia assistir você reagindo ao Queen por HORAS, esse vídeo é maravilhoso, meu favorito depois de One Vision e o de Headlong, e sim Freddie vestiu a peruca e os seios em algumas apresentações ao vivo, sempre se divertindo muito, se quiser conferir você pode ver I Want to Break Free ao vivo no Japão, foi como um bis para o público no final do show, muito divertido ❤
I want that class righr now :D
Brian May said, This video did not go down well in the USA!
Love ur videos
the video was banned in the US they didn't get it we got what the idea was in the UK Fredy asked the producer if he should shave his mustache off for the clip they thought it would be more fun with it on.
The drama of it all.
That was another time in 80 it was shocking and controversial. Many music stations banned that song, and tv stations did not want to show that on TV. The band had legally problems.
Hey, Maggie
In case no one mentioned it, the band were fans of the drama, Coronation Street, which is where they got the idea from. This video, as well as the one for "Body Language" from Hot Space, was banned by MTV
And what they did to the "Bicycle Race" video was unforgivable (if not unexpected) blur mania.
Only Body Language was banned, it's just a myth that this one was also banned.
Another great Queen reaction! Ground breaking as well as entertaining these guys never fail to get their message across. Great job Maggie!!
If you haven't reacted to the album "A Night At The Opera", you're missing out on a masterpiece.
This song was recently used in a cruise line advertisement
100% professional
Need to watch the "A Kind of Magic" music video.
🌹🌹🌹 Well Done 🌹🌹🌹
❤
ONLY GOD KNOWS HOW MUCH FRED WANT TO BE FREE
I really want to see you react to one of Citizen Soldier's songs. A good song to start off with is "This Is Your Sign". Also, I bet after making that video, he would appreciate what women do for beauty.
Hope you can react to “its a hard life" also by queen.
Many a young man [including me] thought that Roger Taylor made a damn good looking young woman! :)
Aside from him & Elvis I would suspend my sexual orientation only in Fantasy, according to some academics all hetero males had theirs suspended at least once,men in drag is the ultimate mind f#&k it polarizes people it's either not taken seriously 😂 some of us get it,but with some others who take all things too seriously or literal it's big turn off others it's the opposite,check out the true story of the Kinks Manager picking up a cross dresser at the Club in stuper went to the crib partied 'til after day break,it became a classic song " Lola" where it splashed on the Charts don't matter!!!
"He makes a better woman than most women I know." Uh...YEAH. That's Freddie F'n MERCURY. lol
I’m not a expert in queen but I believe back in the day there was so much backlash in America from this music video that they never toured America again they didn’t understand the British sense of humour
Thank you, B E A U T I F U L person
got one for you
come on eileen by Dexies midnight runners
will become your new favourite
It wasn’t his idea to dress up. It was John’s song. Based on an English soap opera. Americans didn’t get it and MTV would not play it. What a loss.
Das Video durfte auf MTV & in den USA nicht gezeigt werden!
❤💋
Did you know that Freddie also sang opera
i remember this video being banned i think on MTV in america......
Men in dresses 😂😂😂
Roger Taylor is so sweeeeet !....More or Less Freddie'S "Coming Out " !
Freddie was well out by then.
It was a tongue-in-cheek homage to 'Coronation Street' - a popular soap opera. John Deacon wrote it as a women's liberation anthem of sorts.
The idea for wearing drag was the idea of either Roger Taylor or his girlfriend, depending what you read. Wearing drag in England is a time-honored practice, especially for comic effect - Benny Hill, Monty Python, among many others - so they thought it'd be fun.
The drag got the video banned by MTV, and hurt the bands' popularity in the states. Huge hit in England.
If I remember rightly because of the Drag sequences in the video clip, the US representatives did not want to release this song as the single in the USA. The video clip also tanked on MTV because of the same reason. The drag sequence parody of a UK soap opera was not appreciated by American audiences.
This video is what got Queen banned on American MTV back in the day. When MTV still was a relevant music channel. Queen's status in the US took a hit because of MTV and their banned content. Queen "Are Responsible For MTV's First Ever Banned Song."
In fact, as this song was only censored on American MTV, it continued to be a success in other countries, especially in England, where everyone understood and loved the reference that the video made to a soap opera of the time, Body Language, which was the first song completely banned from MTV. , even entering the record books for this
Super man
Try "I Want it All" if you want
a good Queen rock song.
and ironically it was roger taylors girlfriends idea to have them in drag!!!!
Its a send up.of longest running soap called coranation street in uk
Please do Freddie Mercury - In my defence. He goes all out on that one.
Poor Freddie! :( He so DESPERATELY wanted to break out - to be his true self. To show the world who and what he was. This is his scream. His battle cry. Quit trying to put me in a box. I've had enough and I want OUT!!! But the world (or at least most of it) didn't want to hear it. If only he'd been born 30 - even 20 - years later, it wouldn't have mattered. 😢 We still love you Freddie! You'll never be forgotten!!
This video was the idea of John Deacon, the bass guitar player. It was based on classic British comedies and theatrical traditions. As an example, during the time that William Shakespeare was writing plays, ALL roles were played by men.
Please watch Voila by Emma Kok, 15 year old girl from the Netherlands..
didnt roger write this 1?
Freddie dressed on live stage as a woman in Brazil 1985
There was only one Freddy no one even came close
I thought I read somewhere Freddy wasn’t about dressing up like women but did because of the other band members? maybe I’m wrong….
Reaction Raphael balada triste de trompeta
Listen to The Great Pretender! Freddy Mercury!
This video cost Queen fans amongst the homophobes in the USA. Us Brits really understood the joke, a parody on the British soap operas.
Dressing up was not freddies idea he didn't want to do it and america banned the video lol
British not afraid of our sexuality
