    In truth, it was John Deacon that made the first move to get Queen's money that was owed to them by so many studios- He bought a 40,000 house and the band was so impressed, they saw the side of John who was strong and had such good business sense, they didn't make a move without checking with John. We still love you John Richard Deacon..

    @donttalkcrap Před 5 lety +564

    I often think about Deacy and what he's doing these days.. kicking back, relaxing, and enjoying retirement without the whirlwind lifestyle and all the stresses he once had. Secretly, I wish that he lurks amongst us, reads the comments, and knows that even after 22 years out him being of the spotlight, there is still a huge outpouring of love for him and that he's still dearly missed by millions of fans. I'd like to think that would bring an extra, nostalgic smile to his face.
    I'm sure he's the best husband, dad and grandfather to his wife, kids and grandkids, and I hope they all know how much of an impact he's made on the lives of all his adoring fans. ❤️
    We still love you, John 😘

      It seems many people speak of John as having a history of depression. I truly hope that is not so because it is a terrible affliction and a chemical imbalance just like diabetes and many other illnesses and it's poorly understood. Instead I hope he is simply enjoying life. That is my wish for him. He is loved by so many people.

      @@michaelasquith9791 - I've heard that myself. A shame. People do not understand a true physical/chemical depression but it is a real illness that changes the brain chemistry. I'm not talking about temporary grief or a tragedy but a genuine malady. Such people can be and often are VERY intelligent like Churchill, Ernest Hemingway, Robin Williams, Van Gogh and Richard Prior. A trigger like a friend's death can exacerbate a latent depression. The usual medications try to restore the necessary chemicals but seldom work over the long run and treatment is an inexact science. Sadly, people will avoid a depressed person because they don't know what to do or feel uncomfortable. Break a leg and you get flowers and visitors. Have depression and you get avoidance and even annoyance. Would someone tell a diabetic to pull it together and stop taking insulin? That's what people expect of a depressed person and it will not work because it is a true chemical imbalance. Alcohol is the usual escape "medicine" and only makes things worse. It's a life of hell and something about which others are helpless.
      I am 69 and have been a long time Queen fan. I feel very badly for him.

      @@susieq9801, poor John Deacon, he lost his best friend, who was the lead singer, of such a legendary band. In this case, it was Queen's very brave, and courageous frontman, Freddie Mercury, who took John under his wing, and protected John the most, as he was the youngest member of the band/family. However, you do have to feel sorry for people who have lost people, who they were close to, and that's why they turn to things, such as alcohol, to block that loss out.

He’s a man of a good character the fact that he’s still married to the very first woman he married in his youth shows a lot about him and doesn’t connect to his fame and profession. And he truly loved Freddie , if everyone can be like John Deacon then the would could be a very peaceful place.

    Bassists are they unsung heroes of bands. Success is based off of the talents of a bassist. They have the dirty task of having to bring the vocalist, guitarist(s), and drummers together and drive the band home. When you don't have a bassist that can bridge those bases, the bands fall flat. QUEEN - One of the absolute greatest bands of all time. Mr. John Deacon, thank you for being that underdog and driving force.

      But ofcourse he does have so many other qualities. Incredibly diverse and gifted musician and writer, always loved all his wonderful songs, especially spread your wings...

    I always loved John Deacon. He had such a talent and it showed and flourished as the band grew and became the greatest band on earth. You can see he was quiet and shy but he also let loose and exploded with his playing. You can tell what kind of person he is. He took Freddy Mercury's death very hard and as he said what is the band without Freddy. I really wish him all the best and hope his retirement is what he needed to heal. John just like Freddy you will never be forgotten. I miss you and wish you well. HAIL THE BAND QUEEN. Thank you for being in our lives and giving us all the good memories.

    I love John deacon so much. I always feel 'spread your wings ' was written for Freddie (a shared memory of him slogging away at various jobs to help his family as a very young man). I know it is probably really for everyone who has ever been devalued, stepped on, yearning to find freedom and creativity but I absolutely love that it was recorded without back-up vocals, just Freddie singing with passion and raw emotion. There is such a deep empathy and profound understanding in both the song and Freddie's voice. We will always love you Freddie. Always.

    John is fine and happy, as far as I know -- he wrote the most beautiful song "You're my Best Friend" for his wife... if someone wrote that for me, I would be in heaven :)

    love john.when ever queen was on stage i watched freddie & john. john would bop all over the place. keep time with the music & turn circles on one leg. how did he do that? read some place that early on freddie told john you can write music & i will help you & so john did write some real hits. while brian & roger stepped out on their wifes john married & the pic with his two children speaks volumes about who john was. also have seen a pic of john & one of his children & he is showing the child around the empty stage. john is the lucky one as he is still married to his first wife &has 6 children. do not think john is a basket case as he rolled down his window & singed autographs & if he was so bad off he could have drove off. good luck john & you will always be a member of queen to me.

      I agree.. Of the four of them, I think John is the most fun to watch in the videos, as he dances around the stage with his bass! So into the rhythm! He danced like he thought no one was watching... But we are all watching him now! Glad he is now enjoying his family. He made the right decision when he retired and put his family first!

    John is the swaggist as Freddie is the most fun and flamboyant in the band. They had a real bromance going on, and when Freddie died, John couldn’t live anymore. They were best friends. You could say that Friends Will Be Friends, right till the end.

    Well, I looked through every comment - whew! Can I just say that "Tribute" is used to honor someone, they don't have to be no longer with us. He is greatly missed and admired, however, and this video does a great job of showing that. God bless you, John. You actually introduced me to Queen with your bass line in "Another One Bites The Dust".

      @@michaelasquith9791 Can't argue with that, Michael! I loved George's songs (still do) and "Here Comes the Sun" was always one of my faves. There's one that I never knew was written by him but I have Queen songs running through my head at the moment and I can't remember what it's called. Now I gotta look it up or I won't be able to sleep tonight, haha. Be right back...😊 Okay, so the one I was trying to think of was "If I Needed Someone." Then I remembered two others I adore: "Something" and "Taxman" (which is rather appropriate at this time of year🤣).

      @@reelgirl8544 , imagine if John Deacon, and George Harrison ever did a duet, they may have been the "quiet" members of their respected bands, but the noise would have been electrifying. John Deacon wrote I Want To Break Free, You're My Best Friend, and Another One Bites The Dust. If you mean George Harrison, While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
