This is a recording of Queen being inducted into the Songwriter's Hall of Fame. It also features a unique version of We Will Rock You which was never performed again
Queen : a cut a bove the rest. No other band has versatility, done any style of song & STILL sound GREAT. Brian May said Queen is better than any one of them (members) & I say Queen is the sum total of GREATNESS bcoz each member is the genuine article that blended into one totaly unique GREATNESS!
I've seen Brian May play this particular song here and at the Rock Hall of Fame induction. (on CZcams of course) If you watch, he does something in both performances. If you didn't know, Brian May wrote this particular song, and Freddy wrote the song they always play after this one, "We Are The Champions". So when you watch this you can see near the end for sure, but it almost looks like he's looking up to the heavens in a way telling Freddy "We Made it!" I get that out of both performances and if you have heard some of the Interviews that have been done with Brian, he said he does at times feel Freddy's presence, so maybe its his way of including him in the performance and telling him what I mentioned. Freddy was obviously quite different from the other band members but they were extremely tight like family despite that. I know you can always tell Brian May misses his friend during Interviews.
First, Brian May doesn’t get enough credit for his guitar talent John Deacon. I understand why he didn’t want to perform again without Freddie. But I don’t understand why he wouldn’t be there for this and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It’s so sad
Brenda AKA The Real Grammy sad. John deacon has composed really good songs, done excellent bass. He should have conquered his depression to get this award
@@dontvoteforanybody3715 I believe John Deacon was the closest to Freddie of the others which is the sole reason why he quietly retired and is not out there with Brian Roger and Lambert.
I too lay under my covers and listened to Radio Luxembourg, Caroline and the other pirate stations. The Beatles, Motown and Rock 'n Roll were not approved by our parents....it was so exciting🤗. Unfortunately, Queen were not around yet.
This was the year I was born I wish I could have been born when Freddie was on this earth but unfortunately I was not but at least his legacy is living on and as will Queen as a whole
Funny. I saw the title, but somehow included part of your username in it. I truly thought that I’d be seeing FM, since he died, so tragically, in 1991. I thought this performance was from 1981. I’m fricken LOSING it! Senior Moments, I’m starting to HATE them! PS. Thank you for the great video!
May be alittle late for this comment just want to correct no Brian didn't write little thing called love it was Freddie's and he wrote it in just 15 minutes in the bathroom and it was for tribute for elvis died in 77 and freddie wrote it in 79 just for the record friend
John Decan really left when Freddie died ? ! Radio Luxemburg. I remember ! Today there is no greatness, None can play to Audiences like Queen and Freddie Mercury !
@@vickiekellner5244 I'm not sure if you mean the Freddie tribute in 1992, but this was the last time John played with Brian and Roger. czcams.com/video/LgROJoX3OYM/video.html
Brian singing We Will Rock You is the most wholesome thing I've ever witnessed, such a gentleman singing it
Roger still kicks some A** on the kit! too.
Have you seen him sing it at Brixton Academy 1993?
Queen : a cut a bove the rest. No other band has versatility, done any style of song & STILL sound GREAT. Brian May said Queen is better than any one of them (members) & I say Queen is the sum total of GREATNESS bcoz each member is the genuine article that blended into one totaly unique GREATNESS!
John really you should have been there all your great songs we miss and love you
Thank you for NOT trying to put a "fake Freddie" into the induction! #Brian#Roger#John #and the immortal #Freddie Mercury..we love you!
For Freddie..
Do the people know how honored they are to be in the presence of Greatness?

Norma Tible I agree. It’s so sad

So glad Roger mentioned Freddie in his acceptance speech.... I know Roger out of the surviving members of Queen, was closest to him.
I think Deacon was closest. They collaborated on many songs.
They were all very close. Freddie had a unique relationship with each one of them.

Wow, that lady really smashed it! ... as did Brian and Roger, but of course, you wouldn't expect anything else from them!
This is a really good version of "CLTCL" she nailed it!
Well deserved award.
I have never seen this, thank you so much for posting it.
Wynonna Judd is a good choice for this--saw her in concert and she has a wonderful blues voice. Takes a real singer to sing Queen!
And Unfortunately Freddie is no longer around. And Wynonna put her own little spin on a classic. I enjoyed it.
Trust Queen to put a different spin on an old classic like WWRY. Fucken amazing version 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I too lay under my covers and listened to Radio Luxembourg, Caroline and the other pirate stations. The Beatles, Motown and Rock 'n Roll were not approved by our parents....it was so exciting🤗. Unfortunately, Queen were not around yet.
Cool, the newer version of we will rock you.!
They did Freddie proud
This was the year I was born I wish I could have been born when Freddie was on this earth but unfortunately I was not but at least his legacy is living on and as will Queen as a whole
Wynonna nailed crazy little thing called love. RIP Freddie and miss you John. Love Brian and Roger Freddie and John

Great video. Never seen this and what an interesting version of WWRY. Great stuff.
I was under the covers listening to radio Luxembourg too !

This performance is just so sad. No sound of John and Fredie at all. 💔
🥰🥰🥰

Where was this?
Is this my life as teenage robot intro letter?
Who's the lady singing?
Wynona Judd
有誰可以告訴我queen合唱團的主唱叫什麼名字，
還有鼓手的名字。3Q
主音: Freddie Mercury: 鼓手: Roger Taylor
No reason that john missed both Hofs
He hasn't been in the public since Freddie's memoral tribute.
