Il 26 ottobre 1981 i Queen, insieme al leggendario David Bowie, pubblicano a sorpresa Under Pressure, brano destinato a diventare uno dei più grandi successi nella storia della musica rock degli anni '80 e inarrivabile esempio di collaborazione tra due delle più influenti menti musicali e di stile della seconda metà del 900.
La storia di questo brano è degna di un film, l'incastro perfetto tra occasione, genialità e lungimiranza che i Queen e Bowie non si lasciano scappare. I Queen sono ai Mountain Studios di Montreaux in Svizzera (che hanno comprato nel 1979) per registrare l’album Hot Space. Il loro ingegnere del suono Dave Richards conosce David Bowie, che in quel periodo vive in Svizzera e sta registrando il singolo Cat People (Putting Out the Fire) per la colonna sonora di un film horror di Paul Schrader e lo invita a passare in studio.
Bowie ha confermato la storia raccontando: «Certe cose succedono per caso, all’improvviso stai scrivendo qualcosa insieme in modo totalmente spontaneo. Under Pressure è nata così». Roger Taylor ha svelato che i Queen e David Bowie hanno iniziato a improvvisare alcuni pezzi dei Cream e altri brani rock e che ad un certo punto Bowie ha detto: «Perché non scriviamo qualcosa noi?»
È in quel momento che è arrivato il colpo di genio di John Deacon, uno dei riff di basso più riconoscibili di sempre, l’intro di Under Pressure che il bassista dei Queen ha iniziato a suonare a ripetizione. «Poi però siamo andati tutti a mangiare una pizza e quando siamo tornati in studio John se l’era completamente dimenticato» ha detto Roger Taylor, «Sono stato io a ricordarglielo». Intorno a quel riff di basso nasce una canzone straordinaria, con un’atmosfera cinematografica, un crescendo musicale emozionante, un suono indefinibile all’incrocio tra rock e pop e un intreccio di voci unico tra Freddie Mercury e David Bowie. Brian May ha detto che Bowie aveva una visione in mente e che è stato molto interessante vederlo lavorare sull’arrangiamento, lasciando allo stesso tempo Freddie libero di spaziare con la sua incredibile estensione vocale:

David and Freddie are singing this in heaven
True legends RIP David and Freddie
F yet m8
Heaven doesn't exist moron
Can’t believe two of the best both gone - but never ever ever forgotten. They live on through their music every time we play their music xxx
Freddys Stimme ist wie ein Ochester
2024 and we still here💙
...and they are still here!!!! Fredie and Davis are/were star who never dies!
손가락을 튕기면 그가 다시 살아 날것 같아요....
And now April 2024 the world is under so much pressure
Oh yea we aer
Wish i could've experienced this era 😢 born in 89 and i love everything about the 70s and 80s... here i am in 2024 enjoying these legends
Same for me!
Thé 70 and 80 s were just as bad as the later years.
I was born in 78 and feel the same. Wasn't really aware of Freddie until he was gone. I've always felt torn generationally, I've felt like a child of the future, trapped in a world of the past, but love the songs of the past, yet stuck with the songs of the future.
lucky me I'm 60 ! no doubt Freddie Mercury Einstein of music !
Sei froh dann bist du noch jung.
Two of the greatest vocalists of the 20th century!
It's crazy they apparently never met
@@shethingsd they're literally singing together
Oh how I wish they could still be alive to give us anothe collab 😂😂😂
If you’re ever sad, just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie and Freddie Mercury
wise words indeed sir. May you best day be your future worst
Freddie actually died almost 20 years before I was born, but I was still alive at the same time as David
He died in 1991, so... are you like 12?
Holygriever 13 actually

Hard to believe this song was released nearly 42 years ago. It still sounds as good today as it did in 1981.

You are right about that Bowie as well
My favorite, David and Freddie ! ♥️♥️♥️♥️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻, Love this song ! True Legend’s !!!!!
Bowie and Freddy were both geniuses, was privileged to live in the 70s and 80s and watch such talent..
We had it all back in those days...Oh to go back just for one week!!
Struggling to define what felt different then.. our musical talent - were powerful influences- their reach was global, just with words and music. We had hope.
True!
Freddie no freddy
@@markymark9176 What changed is delusion ended. Everyone in the 60s thought music would be some revolution in and of itself so they never brought actual solutions to the problems they were yammering about. As the words proved empty over time, things got worse. Also Nixon and Reagan happened.
They did record this song, vocals only, at Queen Studio, in Montreux, Switzerland, 1981. Two gods of rock joined their powers and made an epic version of this song. RIP and thank you for the irreplaceable music you made. Long gone, but never forgotten and surely missed.
My Boys....I miss Bowie and Freddie so much. But at least we still have Queen. ❤
I miss this TIME
@@barbel6166 навсегда 👍
All they needed was Elton John in their group.
@@glencoe6305 If you are into Saxon, Elton John played the piano in their song "Northern Lady"
The one and only David Bowie. The one and only Freddie Mercury and Queen. Forever famous, forever loved, FOREVER legends. NOTHING COMPARES.
YES!!!!!
Two Magnificent LEGENDS SINGING TOGETHER!!! GOOSEBUMPS!
Freddie Mercury and David Bowie, 2 of the best voices to ever exist!
Hello. How are you doing Julie 🌹🌹
Bowie le da un repaso brutal a Mercury...
@@noestahechalamielparatubocaen voz? No. Tal vez como intérprete, pero Bowie ni intentó ni fue tan virtuoso como Freddie
@@noestahechalamielparatuboca❤❤❤
Both gone far too soon.
I miss them both terribly 😢😢 The world has never been the same without them.. True legends they were..🙌🙌🙌
❤️
for me its been the same, but I know them and I know they both died, thats called life.
I agree with you. Been listening a lot of Queen songs recently ( Son in we will rock you show) I can't stand anymore the songs that plays on the radio lot of rubbish....
❤so true
I completely agree
Freddie Mercury. A once in a millennium talent.
This gave me goosebumps. Two of the best performers!
Yesss, Freddie singing in his high pitch,Chills,Chills,Chills ✨ He had an Amazing stage presence. David Bowie and his deep toned voice resonates within my Soul. Two Musical Icons singing in Heaven. Under Pressure ❤❤
One of the best duets in human history! Sooo powerful
The other duet îs with Michel Jackson
It never happent in real life...
totally agree awesome
Exactly what I was thinking
I'm 54 and grew up playing this song over and over...it still makes me tear up.
RIP Freddie Mercury (September 5, 1946 - November 24, 1991), aged 45
And
RIP David Bowie (January 8, 1947 - January 10, 2016), aged 69
You both will be remembered as legends.
69. Nice.
@@CarolBaughman🤡
My sentiments exactly.
Both broke my heart, but so very much love both of them, still!
So so young for Freddie, not too old for David either but I have the feeling that they probably lived as much as 3 lifetimes to our one while they were with us😉
I am born in 1967...and there was so much between, but I still love this music...I grew up with that stuff...I ,ll never forget...thanks for all younger people, they hear that energie...
How did the world not explode when these two legit demigods made this fucking masterpiece
Two of my all time favourites. Not many can go toe to toe with Freddie at vocals but Bowie is more than comfortable there. Loved them both
FREDDIE HAD NO EQUAL. HE'S A PRICELESS GEM. CLEARLY HE SANG WITH MANY AND WAS NEVER EQUALLED
Love them both 💕
I don't think Bowie tried to go toe to toe with Freddie, they complemented each other.
It was a synergy.
Almost 35 years ago to the day, I had the historic honour to watch this legend live with Queen at Madrid, Spain. A 15 yo girl, with a couple of my best friends, without our parents knowing. Still one of the best memories of my life! It was more than worthy the consequences when they learned about it. I cried oceans when Freddie left us, I still think of him when I play his songs. Such a voice can never be replaced and he will live forever.
That's beautiful

👍👍✌️
He was so talented both were Freddie & David best mix of voices!!! Now sadly both are gone,but never forgotten!!!
Funny but similar for me with David Bowie except it was not my Mother that found out (initially) It was the Nuns at school. It was worth 3 cuts of the cane to see that concert!
I will never forget this song. Only David and Freddie can sing this. No one else can, that is the way it will always be!!
And Diva Plavalaguna of course!
@@adamkrauze4411, who is that??
@@lindatoten6452 Did you try to google her? ;-)
Keane kommt nah ran.
The greatest arrangement in the history or rock, and just maybe the greatest rock song of all time. It gets me every time.
I´m 34 years old, so I never had the chance to see this live. These two were absolutely amazing.
Im 15 and I just feel in love for this music, i mean 70's, 80's and 90's. This is just awesome, sad i couldn't do fan's things or be a part of the crowd on stages, if i was just a little older :')
I enjoy how sweaty Freddie jumps around the stage, rocking it while bowie stands to the side in a pastel suit clicking his fingers, cool as
Freddie lost/was losing someone he loved, which makes the line can't we give ourselves one more chance? This is our last dance Very poignant ❤ always loved, never forgotten.😢
La base !
@@mity8041c’est la base les deux là ! Les meilleures années
Tears rolling down my cheeks, listening to two magnificent men with mighty voices.
Gone but never ever forgotten.
It's so sad they're both gone isn't it?! 💔

🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
Crying too
Tears and joy … listen it again in 2022 Christmas time …
This song is GOLD
It's 2024 and so missing them amazing together ❤
Two legends with one legendary song....great 80's songs!
これはスゴすぎる。僕は初めて、ボーイ見たけど、明らかにふざけてないね。フレディ、まじでリスペクトしてる。
They are not playing in the same stage simultanously. Good camera editing.
Can’t beat the 80s
Bowie is one of the few that could hold his on with Freddie. So glad they did this!
This song has always been simply amazing, best played loud.
Какие они красивые, классные и талантливые!
Two of the most talented musicians ever. Nothing like them exists today.
Miss them terribly.
Miss them………today we have Raul Malo/Mavericks. If you haven’t been fortunate enough to find him just give him and his orchestra a listen. You may be very surprised. Your Welcome.
Go to learn YOSHIKI from X Japan.He’s a distinguished musician.
Love both especially Bowie. This song is one of my all time favorites and I wish they had done more together
Unfortunately yes my friend...Who can perform like this today...
I'm unfortunately 13 so I was born too late to see this masterpiece in person, but it will always be one of my favorite songs. If I'm alive for time machines to be invented, the first thing I'm doing is going to the 80s and buying tickets to a Freddie Mercury concert
Age is a number
When time machines are invented can I go to the concert with you? I'll also get some David Bowie tickets if you want to come too :)

Che duo immenso….due voci inconfondibili…due artisti fantastici
Two legends, gone but not forgotten
60's, 70's, 80's were the time for true music. True legends 😢😢😢😢😢😢 I can't imagine how much we miss those time and legends today. Tired of today's fake auto tune artists 😏😒😏😒😏
True true
Yesterday's music was fantastic, it was for us, those who were part of yesterday, today's music is for the youth of today and they like it, so how about we don't shitcan the music they want, as the older generation shitcaned our music of yesterday.
Not a big fan of Bruno mars but I gotta respect him cause he actually has a real voice.
Im 24 and I like this old music way better. Didnt talk about sex drugs or violence in every single song. Todays music is shit but we have no better stuff to listen to because holywood controls who becomes famous. @itsamemario8014
I could listen to them a million times and be in absolute awe every single time! ..Such Incredible talent and sadly missed!
Me too. I just find this so amazing
❤️
This performance is a masterpiece of music.🎉❤
One priceless performance !
I can't believe how amazing and talented everyone on that stage is. Everything is perfection. From Mercury and Bowie's vocals, their performances, to the amazing band behind them
It's making me so sad that I will never be able to see either Queen or David Bowie live in concert. RIP to both of them, the impact they had on this world will go on forever.
hahah in this times buddy.... nobody can ^t even imagine what they did on stage.... but you know fuck it. This Kids from today thinking TictoC and Insta is plus Ultra... XD
They're not on stage together, interestingly. Somebody spliced together two different concert performances.
@@jamesxenophon9505 really? That's so cool! Whoever did it props to you because I had no clue
@@InsertTopicsomeone combined two concerts,one of queen and tthe other is the Freddie Mercury Tribute concert after his death, David Bowie was one of the performers with queen
I had the good fortune of meeting David twice but sadly no meet with Freddie, and for those that say never meet your idol as it could turn bad from your point of view, don’t believe it Bowie was so much more than I could of dreamt of in fact the first time was that David and co star were making a swift exit from the world premiere of Just a Gigolo in London and I was outside smoking and I didn’t know they had left until a limo pulled up next to me and window opened and Bowie leaned out and said can I get a light mate! OMG I was in shock so much so that I told him to keep the lighter! 😂 He said thanks and asked was I leaving early and I said no just have a smoke break to which he said do yourself a favour and leave now only it really is crap!!🤣 He was actually quoted on being interviewed about the movie as saying “Let’s just say it was all of my Elvis movies rolled in to one” He was probably right!
We will never see this kind of us music again. David Bowie and Freddy Mercury are irreplacable.
did you mean Freddie
No

Freddy’s voice has to be one of the greatest . His level is higher than many opera singer !!
Have you heard him sing, Barcelona? Truly fabulous.
Yes I think he could of sung anything with anyone and matched them completely he was so talented what a voice!!
A scientific study explained why their vocal range is almost inimitable. What are the singularities that return to your unique voice?
To prove his vocal genius, there is nothing more convincing than listening to one of his songs. "Don't stop me now", one of Queen's anthems, in which Mercury shows off his unmatched variety of tones...
He was right up there with Minnie Ripperton on his vocal range. 3 or 4 people have in moden times been blessed with this vocal range talent.
He did study opera.
We are so lucky to live in a time so their voices are never silenced
Why would their voices be silenced? People didn't really believe Freddie Mercury was gay, until he was dying of AIDS, by then it would've been to late to silence him, David Bowie was married to a supermodel with Children, umm Freddie Mercury said when he was dying, that the only person he ever truly loved, was his wife, who took care of him while he was dying
Love love this song. Love you both. You both were a great loss to the world. ❤❤
I miss them and the 80' everyday! ❤
This has to absolutely be the best bass riff of all time, and there for DAMNED sure won't be any more like Freddie and Bowie. These guys are the GOAT's...
RIP David, Freddie, Taylor, Sinead, Adam, Dolores, .....
40yrs later, je viens de vivre l'expérience émotionnelle qui a donné vie à cette chanson... Magnifique... tellement subtile, juste et profond ! ❤
Gives me chills listening to these 2 great men sing. Im sure they are still singing together in music heaven now!
God didn’t make Adam and Steve, something to think about. God doesn’t believe in sickness.

Can't believe today, 24 Nov 2023, it's been already 33 years since the genius Freddie Mercury's died of a big disease with a little name as the other genius Prince sang. I feel lifted up in the air every time listen to this 'out of space' song. This song may seem old but in fact it's a piece of art and it's without age!
"I dont care what you do with my music. Just don't make me boring."

Freddie Mercury died of the AIDS treatment not of any dis-ease. Sadly
Incredible blessings and gratitude to have lived when THEY lived and to have shared this amazing moment in time!!!!

本当に音楽が好きだからというのが、伝わるね。
My brother was in the military and was able to see them live...imagine that....I love them both still....I'm glad I was born in 1959....went through eras of great music...
This song is still so relevant today as it was when it was released! Love it!
My 5 year-old daughter is obsessed with this song, and I get choked every time I talk to her about the impact these two legends had on music and culture. This song is in my top-10 canon of music-pure alchemy!! Never a better singer or frontman than Freddie. Never a more inventive songsmithing chameleon than Bowie.
You are so right
You just made me choke up reading this while the song played, thanks my friend

Still to this day, Ive never heard someone do David Bowies part remotely close, even Freddie. Their voices were just so unique and perfect ❤
Así es voces perfectas, al millón que ningún cantante podrán superar ahora en 2024
I saw Queen live nearly 36 Years ago in Germany. Just a great concert, no samrtphones, no cameras , just the audience and the Band. Gorgeuos.
one beautiful high voice, the other the same but down. A wonderful time of analog life where such a concert was a wonderful experience for thousands of similar souls. My God, how I miss those times😢
Most likely the greatest pop rock song ever made. Bowie's vocals alongside Mercury's has got to be one of the bravest perfomances in music history.
This song got a few of us thru the agony of being in a detox clinic & detoxing. David Bowie died while I was in there. His death brought addiction & recovery into the media again. He worked a tight 12 Step program himself. Forever Grateful ❤️🙏🏻
Thanks ❤️
The best performance ever with David Bowie and The Queen.
Absolutely one of the best songs ever recorded
I never really realized how relevant this song is ! Both Queen and David Bowie are geniuses ! Thank you !! I love this song and I wish I could have seen this live !
Sadly, they never played this song together live on stage. This video simply has great editing from different performances to give it the appearance.
I cannot get over how beautiful both of there voices are!❤🙏
Two classics that are dearly missed. I grew up with them both and listening makes me cry. The greats are always taken soon.
So glad I got to grow up listening to both of these monster talents as it was happening. Still listening today. I miss Freddie, David, Lou Reed and all the rest. RIP. Thanks for sharing your talents❤❤❤
One of the most amazing songs that will never happen again 💕
I wish I could go back in time and see David Bowie and Queen preform this live. As of now, this is my favourite song of all time, with two of my favourite artists.
totally agree just iconic
I don’t think queen and Bowie ever performed this unfortunately 🙁
Ditto!
Preform anything...live
They never perform at the same stage together, they hate each other.....
Brought tears of joy to my eyes. My breath literally stopped watching this . Just Wow!!🎉🎉🎉

Here it is 2021 and I’m watching these magnificent artist who have both left us. Saddens me. Thanks for the memories guys! Takes me back to high school and those outrageously awesome years past. What a life
What they are trying to say is these people are still alive. Out of witness protection. Prince, Bowie, Mecury, Elvis, Marley, Jackson, Joplin on and on and on. Due to turning in the Illuminati for their fame to secrecy of worship to Satan. Praise God. I wouldn't doubt Lennon and Harrison. We'll see!
