Queen had a huge catalog of songs, and if anyone knew them, it would certainly be Freddie. Many people speculate that his favorite song was indeed the legendary crown jewel of the band - Bohemian Rhapsody. But that in reality is not true.
Despite this huge catalog of music that includes sports anthems, killer disco tracks, and experimental songs, Freddie Mercury had no difficulty in choosing his favourite Queen song while most of us won't even be able to pick our top 10, let alone the best one.

That Queen song (which was written by Freddie Mercury himself) is actually called 'Somebody To Love' NOT 'Find Me Somebody To Love' as you kept referring to it in the clip.
It was taken from their 1976 UK No1 LP 'A Day At The Races' and also features on their 1981 best selling compilation album 'Greatest Hits'.
No one but no one will ever come close to Freddie’s voice, talent or stage presence
I'm trying to bite my tongue, but can't help feeling offended that Lambert is even included in this video. Adam needs to be his own person, his own talent, make his own mark - not be the wanna-be stage act that insults the pure talent of Freddie Mercury. He's overstayed his welcome imo.
Search for his "clone" then, Marc Martel.
@@igorrodrigues7382 yes, omg! I came to say the same thing about Marc Martel! The voice resemblance is incredible!
@@DebbieBlanke I agree with you.
Robert plant was amazing, legendary vocalist but Freddie is still the best in my opinion
John Deacon is seriously underrated.
Already considered as one of the best Bassists in the world and well known for writing a lot of Queen's hits. I doubt he's that underrated, though one's gotta admire the rich, reclusive, family oriented lifestyle he lives
He a bit fascinated me as a person, but as a bass player, I've always felt he's very inspiring and a true great.
I think Jonn is also ,John join the band 1971 all 4 band members became famous at the same time.
Yep I totally agree about John Deacon everyone constantly talks up the other band members but rarely mention Deaks. He seemed like a really nice guy and a true friend of Freddies. I personally think Deaks didn't like anyone replacing his friend Freddie. He also wrote some great songs.
@@annoneill4102 I think John didn't want to be in the picture anymore
After Freddie died. He wanted a quite life with his family . He has 6 kids. Plenty of money still involved with that part. Brain and Roger weren't ready to stop they loved what they did. They say NO ONE CAN REPLACE FREDDIE. So I understand both sides. I think all 3 of them loved Freddie. Handle it all different. They were all 4 together for 20 years. I dont feel one loved Freddie more than the other. John might have taken it harder. John will always be known as Queen
PS The only reason I wrote this was I watch interview. Take it in your own way.
All their songs. But Freddie cannot be replaced by anybody ! HE'S THE SOUL AND THE VOICE OF QUEEN. He's the King of QUEEN. UNIC
At 67 I am mesmerized by all his music and talent ❤🙌 ..I'm constantly watching his videos. I even have some of his music on my "Funeral Playlist" 😎 ..Call me Crazy About this thing called LOVE!! 🎹🥰🙏
He was part of the Soul that was Queen. All of them mattered. John Deacon left the band shortly after Freddie died because Deacon was broken by Freddie's death. They weren't lovers, but each of the men in Queen loved each other as family. Also, Freddie wasn't bisexual. He loved Mary deeply. So deeply that he left her 90% of his estate. Freddie did not enjoy sex with Mary or women. He only enjoyed sex with men. He couldn't fall in love with men. Sexually, he was gay. Emotionally, Freddie was straight. You can't put a label on that other than sad, because Polyamory wasn't a thing yet. He never found that one person he thought was out there.
Freddie would likely say he was the Queen of Queen, Darling. But we love him anyway.
@@valeriehardylewis9992 It's never late to find the Miracle of Freddie Mercury.
Adore people like you.
No, Freddie cannot EVER be replaced! I don't know about you, but I can't listen to Adam Lambert! I've tried a few times, he sounds terrible to me! I guess I am comparing him to Freddie, but it is hard not to when I only listen to Freddie sings all of these songs! He is FAR from a talent like Freddie! There is NO comparison!
I can´t name my favorite song, it depends on my mood. But Somebody To Love and Who Wants To Live Forever are one of their best songs for me.
You've absolutely nailed that one!
Same with me depends on my mood.
Same her but one of my more consistent favorites I Seven Seas of Rhye❤❤
Who Wants To Live Forever is probably one of the best songs i’ve ever heard.
Mine has to be The show must go on
Love of My Life is my favorite of the tender songs that Freddie performed. He was a genius on so many levels.
Agreed, live performance was so special, not that the studio was bad
Mine too.
Hard to pick one ..but I agree with Jackie. Love of my life was just great....
me 2
❤ Love of my life, favorite, for sure!
All Queens songs are priceless..love them all and no one can, or will ever, replace Freddie Mercury! He was, still is, one of a kind..The mold was broken when Freddie was born..he lives forever..April, 2021..
I really thought roger will say 'im in love with my car' 😂
Ikr me too!
Yeah!
That's what I said😂😂
🙂😂😂👍
I thought Brian was too
Someone To Love is Freddie's favorite song but hell, all their songs are great.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I had no idea we shared the same favorite song
SOMEBODY, not someone :)
My favorite 💗
Rosalie this is the cast of bohemian rhapsody’s consensus fave as well just putting that out there !!
Somebody to love. Your favorite? Know the title, please!
Love “Somebody To Love”. Also “I Want to Break Free”. “We are the Champions” Love them all. Miss Freddy RIP 🙏💙
Freddie**
One vision and princess of the universe for me..... At the gym lol.
The March of the Black Queen is brilliant and beautifully sung. Album: Queen II, 1974.
I Love
Killer Queen And
Bohemian Rhapsody
I love killer Queen but it's very hard to choose from so many great songs
Let's not say Brian May founded Queen... He founded Smile, but it wasn't untill Freddie that Queen was founded!
Well said Nico! 👍
yup ! my understanding is mercury was the one that sugguested Brian and Taylor for them to form queen
That's right ! Never better said before
They all wanted a different name, but in the end, Freddie sort of convinced them that Queen is the right one xD
Your so right! Freddie Mercury changed everything about Brian's and Roger's playing. Mercury named the band Queen; he drew Queen's logo too. I doubt Roger and Brian would of been an International great band without Freddie talents, and John Deacon's Base Guitar playing, and his song writing. I Want to Break Free, Another One Bites the Dust, Friends etc...
I want to Break Free and crazy little thing called love!!! Miss Freddie very much. Queen Fan forever!
Bohemian Rhapsody is one of my favorites. It’s hard to choose because they are all so great and at my age, they all seem to bring back memories.
John deacon is still a member of Queen but just stopped performing. He is involved in all financial and admin decisions about Queen as said by Brian May.
Somebody To Love is also my favorite Queen song. Glad to know it was Freddie's favorite too.
never hear anyone talking about it, but the world we created is amazing. what a wonderfull song.
My favourite song is "the march of the black queen". Choirs, choirs and more choirs, combined with heavy guitars and a lot of tempo changes!
I'm glad there are people appreciating it.
Sameee
I Love so many songs by Queen. I would have to say my favorite Queen song is "The Show Must Go On". I love the lyrics "My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies". Poetic words, written by a man with a poet's soul.
... "inside my heart is breaking , my makeup may be flaking , but my smile still stays on"
Not to mention the vocals that he completely lacerated while staring death in the face. The “I’ll face it with a grin, I’m never giving in…” is ridiculous vocally
My absolute favorite Queen song is "Princes of the Universe". I fell in love with it when watching the Highlander series.
Queen has so many underrated songs! I personally love "Killer Queen" "The show must go on" and "Love of my life" but I still love all of their songs. And Freddie was a literal genius
My favorites are"Don't stop me now", "Somebody to Love", and "Keep Yourself Alive"
Love of my life
Fav song of all time
@@tonyataylor4697 It was meant for Mary, and he said that. Freddie wouldn't have wanted people to look deeper into that, so just sit back and enjoy.
@@Innuend.o NO Freddie never said that. Never! Watch the Queen official video. Freddie had those hidden messages in all his videos. You must be a newbie! Don’t believe anything in the movie 90% not true. Fan since the 70’s and I know everything about Queen and it would shock everyone.
@@tonyataylor4697 And at that time Freddie was a "sex machine" while he still had his relationship with Mary. I think it would make sense that he wanted to end that relationship. Freddie has said that it was "for Mary" or "Mary's song" in plenty of different interviews. He wrote it, he knows. Not us.
I don’t like it how people call the band queen with that new person that’s technically replacing Freddie Mercury Freddie Mercury can never be replaced
I completely AGREE
You got that right...not even close!!!
@@barbaraanne5258 Adam isn't trying to replace the great Freddie Mercury at all, he's just a very good frontmanand thats all he's ever claimed to be.
Sup peeps completely agree to me Adam Lambert will never be queen for me for me Queen will always = Freddie Mercury , Brian , John and roger
@@roxannewilliams5609 are you kidding ? Not even in the same league Freddie could instantly change styles of music had a four octave range from baritone to tenor Adam doesn’t it’s comparing apples and oranges sorry but Adam is imitating someone he can never equal end of !
I love "Is This The World We Created"
Love al the songs ❤
I love them all. But You take my breath away and Mother love make me cry. All the time.
I love anything Freddie sings. Right now its Dont Stop Me Now and In My Defence.
In my defense is really good
Love of my life is one of my fave ballads of theirs along with who wants to live forever and the miracle
@@SeIfishmachines, it's a Dave Clarke song.
Somebody To Love.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
No freddie will never be replaced but adam keeps his memory alive. Im glad my queen is still going on. And if i can someday soon theyll see me again. Ill blow more kisses to them.
My favorite Queen track is "Show Must Go On" because that song speaks greatly to me and it's just so damn beautiful
John literally said his fav song is dragon attack
That is what I remember as well--John loved Dragon Attack
If you are looking for accuracy in this video, keep looking.
Me too
Was it or worth it ? John's favorite too, he literally said that
Crazy little thing called love and Love of my life!!!
Let's hear it for Deaky everyone! Great songwriter and the greatest bass player ever!
My top 3 favorite Queen songs are Bohemian Rhapsody, Love of My Life and You're' My Best Friend
So basically, your favorite album is "a night at the opera" :)
I find the later work of Queen more memorable thou. Especially Miracle and Innuendo, so I dont have my favorite Queen song. There are so many of them that I can listen to every day and every night.
One of my favorites is Killer Queen
In my opinion, you can't get much better than The Show Must Go On
It is difficult to choose a favorite. All of their songs are phenomenal. The two that I listen to most lately are...under pressure and... I want to break free
I haven’t watched the video but I know it’s somebody to love cos he said it himself
My fave is "One Year Of Love" although Freddie is IMO, the greatest singer to ever front a wonderfully eclectic band, I am glad I was a teenager in the 70's!
Me, too!
My favourite line in a Queen song, "is thissss a kind of magic". Vocal perfection!
My favourite Queen song is ‘It’s Late’, a track from the ‘News of The World’ album. Very Powerful!
One of My all time Fav's too!
It added so much depth to my appreciation for its late when I found out the lyrics jump back and forth from verse to verse from his lover to his woman then back to his lover.
Millionaire Waltz is up there too. Love both of them.
Same
Agree with you. "It's Late" was on the album "News of the World " where there is a lot of masterpieces. Underatted album. I love it. In a way it was the beginning of fame & Queendmania ❣👍
I think John Deacon would like “Under Pressure” because of its iconic bass riff
props to Adam for crediting Dragon Attack, criminally underrated song with a genius base line
THE SHOW MUST GO ON.
Bohemian Rhapsody is one of my favorites ❤
May of 2021 , I honestly wish they would play my part of the. World again!! I swear I would sell my favorite grandchild to see May and Taylor play live just one more time!! 😁
John and Freddie wrote the Miracle. John knew about Freddie’s HIV diagnosis right away.
There's nothing to suggest that's true
According to Jim,john questioned the marks on Freddie but was told it was nothing
Actually the whole band contributed to the writing of the miracle although Freddie and john were the main writer's.
@@toddmathers5075 ooh Todd...you have no idea what I KNOW!! Have you ever watched Rock Montreal? Do you think Freddie is crying during LOML over vendor issues. NO
@@toddmathers5075 I always delete my comments!
@@toddmathers5075 i was surprised by John's involvement to as i thought Freddie was main writer wikipedia seems to confirm it was Freddie & John but who knows how correct that is lol
Thanks for the vidio im realy pleased to know especially Freddies favourite helps me to understand .
WoW I've never seen a picture of John Deacon as an old man. (I missed it the 1st time I saw this video. I must have blinked, literally). How ironic how much younger both Roger and Brian look! Maybe staying a performing rock legend keeps you young!
Would so love to see/hear John come back; even for a short time. Reunite.
Somebody to Love is my favorite.
I really like the not the the top ten,I like to dig into every album they made and like the infamous songs,but nobody can replace FREDDY!
Somebody to Love is my favorite Queen song. It is hard to pick because they are all awesome. I do especially like Let Me In Your Heart Again, Spread Your Wings and Hammer to Fall.
I have a thing about "Put Out The Fire" - a hidden metal gem 👍♥️👍
Peace and blessings always! Freddy said even though Bohemian Rhapsody was there hit song, from a writer's standpoint somebody to love was his and his mom's favorite song, my big brother introduced me to queens music we are the champions, and another one bites the dust and Bohemian Rhapsody but I love to somebody to love...FREDDIE.
They’re all such wonderful songs , it’s hard to pick one favorite. I like their “ power “ songs , like We are the Champions, Another One Bites The Dust and We Will Rock You . But I also like the softer side of Freddie Mercury. The Miracle and Who Wants to Live Forever, it shows the softer side. That’s a hard one.
Thanks for another great video 📹 👍 😀 love it take care my friend ❤ 😀 😊
My Bijou!! Tiny , sweet little song.
Ése tema, la voz de Freddie y la magia de Brian en la guitarra ,es lo que hace a My Biju... el recuerdo eterno de un amor sin condiciones.
Te saludo desde Argentina con afecto⭐
Cool stuff ! This band brings back so many memories growing up in the 70s and 80s . My favorites songs Crazy little thing called love , Another one bites the dust, Kinda Magic, Bicycle Race , Headlong and many others .
I actually love all of them equally bUuUuT Killer Queen and Don’t Stop Me Now are just my absolute favorites, followed by Play the Game, Somebody to Love, Under Pressure, Don’t try Suicide, Another one bites the Dust.. and ofc I‘m In LoVe WiTh My CaR and many more
I agree with Freddie on that one. Somebody to Love is Queen at its finest.
Great video thank you! It's impossible to pick just one favorite song from this band. I couldn't do it even if there was a gun to my head. Lol thankfully there isn't.
I love all of Queens songs Long live there Mucic.
VERY nice to know what where Freddie, Brian, John and Roger's favorite Queen-songs. So has every-one his or her's favorite. I have many favorite songs, but the nr. one for me is; I want to break free. 👑💓👑💓👑💓👑
Somebody to love is also one of my favorite song 🙌🏻🙌🏻
It's a hard life and breakthru are still the best songs in my heart ❤
Don't stop me now 🎶 😏 ✨ 😌 ♥
I love Queen and Freddie, and Adam Lambert are doing a great job keeping the story alive with his Amazing voice and personality 😍 No one i have heard can sing Queen songs as well as him - It's a fitt 👍😁 Have tickets to their show in Copenhagen 2022 😍 My favorites are Love of my life and It's a Hard life 😍 Still miss Freddie though - It's not fair that he had to die so young 😟
Show must go on
Somebody To Love was. Freddies's favorite song. Just like mine. It has been my favorite song since 1976. I didn't know it was Freddies's favorite song for a long time. It makes me so happy to know it's Freddie's too.❤️❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑
Freddie Mercury is and has always been my hero and inspiration since October 31,1975. I still love you Freddie Mercury ❤️❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑
Absolutely Love Somebody To Love XOXO No Wonder a favourite for Freddie ❤ True Heartfelt ❤ A classic song that touches heart to this day ❤
Love of my life is my favorite song
I love all Queen songs truly one of the greatest bands ever but if I had to pick a favorite I’d say Spread your wings.
Who wants to live forever. My favourite! Second, Bohemian Rhapsody.
Lmao I'm almost surprised that Roger's favorite song wasn't I'm in Love With My Car😂
Love all of their songs!
freddie isn't dead yet he still lives in our hearts
For my money, Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy is the most perfect pop song ever written. I know Freddie had a special affinity for that one. Criminally underrated song
That's the ring tone for my boyfriend.
And how about "Get down and love"?
1: Under Pressure, rest are all number 2, can’t separate them, We are the Champions, Bohemian Rhapsody, Who Whats to live forever, I want it all, You’re my Best friend, We will Rock You, Princes of the Universe, Find me someone to love, the Highlander sound track was brilliant imo as an album..
Under pressure is my favorite, especially the music. If a few of the lines in the lyrics were better, I think it stands alone in most people's minds. It has a fantastic close though with Bowie's last few lines.
my favorite crazy little thing called love . No one but no one will ever come close to Freddie’s voice, talent or stage presence.
My personal favorite Queen song is 'Was It All Worth It' from The Miracle. Very underrated album.
it’s hard to choose a favourite song but Hammer to Fall is surely one of them 😍
My favorite song is: A kind of magic!!!!❤️
Who wants to live forever is my favorite!
No one can be as good as freddie.Freddie rocks!
No one can ever replace Freddie....or John Deacon
Certainly not Lambert.
My favorite Queen songs are Somebody to Love, and Crazy Little Thing Called Love.
Bohemian Rhapsody of courze!!!! Number#1...**********
Love of my life....love that song
Love me like there’s no tomorrow.... love love this song🎤👑🎸🥁💛💛💛
Queen wrote so much great hits like my favorit Another one bites the dust. I also have a personal small list of more unknown songs that I love … Spread your wings, Who needs you, Cool cat, Need your lovin', Dragon attack, Dancer, My fairy king, The kiss, Millionaire waltz, I'm in love with my car, '39, It's late, Save me.
There is ABSOLUTELY no way I can pick a favorite but I do have 2 favorite lines that are both tattooed on my body. "This World has only one sweet moment set aside for us" from Who wants to live forever and "I'll face it with a grin I"m never giving in" from The show must go on.
My favorites by Queen are both from the same album Queen II, March of the black queen, and Ogre battle they are masterpieces!!!!!!!!!!
Didnt Freddie say that his favorite song of all time was Somebody to love? Brian also said that Somebody to love was Freddie fav song
Under pressure is my top pick
I think if I had to choose I would say " In the Lap of the Gods" or "Somebody to Love" because I know what that meant to Freddie and it's such an awesome tribute to Aretha Franklin who Freddie loved and admired so much! There are just too many to choose from to really say. It depends on how I feel on any given day! As long as I hear the greatest band of all time every day I'm happy!
I love John Deacon's songs! I want to break free, is wonderful. Freddie enjoyed singing Deacon's songs. 🙏❣️🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🌏✌️
I like headlong and one vision Freddie was sick in the one and sounded fantastic. What ever he sung was amazing and can never be replaced. I hope the band knows there greatness us do to Freddy voice and all there writing.
All of their song are my favorite especially these are the days of our lives
