This is a 1st time listen and reaction so folks please remember my reaction is done on the spot. No script, no pre-recorded stuff. I am bringing you a real and raw honest 1st time reaction
Only a free and pure-minded person, on the verge of death, experiencing severe pain and the realization of the hopelessness of his position, could see the beauty of this world and create such wonderful songs as Winter's tale.
For me, on November 24, 1991, unfortunately, Farukh Bulsara died, it is very sad, but this is life. But he left behind - Freddie Mercury - a unique image in pop culture, unlike anyone else, who will never die, because legends live forever.
nicely put
And still the tears flow. I try not to mourn death but celebrate the life. And this song encapsulates that. Simply beautiful
Can you begin to imagine being so close to death and being able to write and sing a song? Most of today’s singers could never reach this level of beauty and quality on their best day. Brian’s playing on the song was like another voice. What an inspiration Freddie is.
RIP Freddie. He will always be loved and missed so much. Imagine staring out a window knowing you didn't have long to live and still being able to see the beauty in the world and in life. What strength and courage he had. He left such a beautiful legacy for us in his music and this legend will live on forever.
Love Freddie’s handwriting in the video.
29 yrs today we lost a legend, the music will live on forever.
Thank you Hap for remembering Freddie today. I still cry when i listen to this. His voice was still so spectacular. I can't believe its been 29 years since Freddie left us. The day the music died. I adored this man and he was my lifetime idol. He just gave us so much. The greatest voice ever. All his fans will love him until we die. He is still so missed. RIP beloved Freddie
Thank you, thank you Hap for playing this song of Freddie's. I'm crying my eyes and heart out listening to this beautiful song. He sounds like he sang this just yesterday! So very beautiful! The Red Special 🎸 plays so beautifully with Freddie it sounds like its crying also. Will miss him so much, much loved 😢. Thank you again!
If Freddie were still here so would John as well. They are so missed

29 years without you...
Always thanks
R.I.P. Freddie
❤⚘👑
All queen fans still missing him. A wonderful song
Freddies last written song, I went to Montreaux a few years ago to Lake Genevre and got to see the hand written lyrics, the whole place is exactly like the song, wonderful wonderful place.
Ive always wanted to go there especially when its his birthday 🙂
This is what I want to do next year .
@@JaneRtn loll ill go with you then ad none of my mates are into Freddie/Queen like i am 😀
As
@@nataliebagshaw2773 take plenty of cash, its expensive to eat out there, other highlights is Charlie Chaplains house and Castle Chillon but the Queen museum and Casino Barrier are a must.
Freddie lived in Garden Lodge with Peter Freestone (his PA), Joe Fanelli (an exboyfriend that he later hired as his chef) and Jim. He was not on his deathbed when he wrote this one but he knew the end was close.
A dying man, celebrating the beauty he sees around him... joyfully, gratefully. We should all hope to be able to do this when our time comes to say adieu.
This was the last song he wrote and the second last song he recorded and last song he fully completed.
How are you dude? I haven't seen you upload in ages? I hope your doing ok.
Freddie wrote that beautiful song at Montreux, the last 6 months of his precious life were spend there
As you already May know, his statue is there and He is visited almost at a daily basis by his loyal fans all over the world
What a performer, miss him dearly
´This beautiful song is talking pretty much about Freddie ´s soul, Red Special is also crying here, thank you
Beautiful, heart wrenching song. This day never gets easier. Thank you for choosing this song to react to today.
❤🎼❤
One of my favorites..perfect choice..now please follow it up with NO ONE BUT YOU. Thank You Freddie ....you live in our hearts forever.
He stopped recording around May 1991. He wrote this after the Innuendo recordings, and he is singing about what he could see from his house in Montreux. I believe this was the second to last song he recorded and mother love being the last.
Freddie been an important part of my life since 1974. His beautiful voice singing amazing songs always made me happy. I have admit I had a big crush on him😊, I will always love The Majestic Freddie Mercury.
Simply Beautiful 💗💗💗💗💗 Queen 👑❤️ Forever and Always 💗💗💗💗
Richard Young... (a great Freedie's photographer) said in an interview the absolute think for him.
" Freddie, became bigger than life itself." So true....
What an amazing grace this man experienced. To be that sick and SEE beauty and bliss! What a blessing, to be at a place of acceptance and peace. Thanks Hap and everybody on this forum for sharing. Stay safe
So perfect to do on the anniversary. Beautiful song with beautiful lyrics. RIP Freddie... 💗
I'm so happy you reacted to this beautiful song....RIP Freddie, you are so missed!!!
Brian’s guitar in this reminds me very much of Bijou, his Red Special is definitely crying in that one. RIP Freddie. Still very much loved and missed by all his fans
Thanks for respect Queen and Freddie so much
29 years ago my heart broke 💔
SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG! YOU CAN TELL HIS VOICE WAS WEAKENED, BUT DEAR FREDDIE NAILED IT! LIKE HE ALWAYS DID.THANK YOU HAP3 FOR A TRULY BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE TO OUR FREDDIE ON THIS ANNIVERSARY OF HIS PASSING! R I P. FREDDIE🙏 YOU ARE MISSED.
Good song pic for today. RIP His music will live on. ♥️
Missing Freddie so much, watching your queen's reaction, over over again😭😭😭
Thank you for picking this. Its a testament to the man, that he could look out and feel all this, even approaching the end. Love Freddie always ♥. Great reaction 😊
My son chose this song for our Mother and Son dance at his Wedding. I've been a Queen fan for 45 years. This has always been one of my favorite songs. Thank you.
You're welcome 👍🏽
A truly beautiful song by s truly beautiful man Freddie's so missed even after 29yrs❤️
I think the meaning of the piano, represents Freddies own mortality. That he's losing the battle but finds the world so beautiful. As if looking at them for the first time, or possibly for the last time.
Oh darling! The best forever..we still miss u.beloved Freddie .R.I.P. ....thank you for your reaction..U are so cute!💞
One very remarkable song from Freddie's last winter in Montreaux, Switzerland. He loved to look at the lake there and that view inspired him. Today is 29 years since Freddie died, but he lives forever with his musical heritage. Queen is one of the most wonderful gatherings of talented people in the history of music, and Freddie Mercury is a masterpiece of nature. Thank you very much and stay healthy.
Beautiful, lovely, peaceful song, written and recorded in a time when Freddie knew, he didn't have much time left. So it surely also comprises a bit of transcendence.
After his last stay in Montreux back in London he decided to skip all meds except of painkillers. He willingly gave up on some other weeks or days, he stopped fighting the unstoppable, to obtain some peace in his last weeks. RIP Freddie!
When I listen to this song, I recognize that the vocal harmonies sound... different. Because Freddie's voice is missing in there. Of course the others did what they could, and they did it very well.
Honoring Freddie today with his last song written. Miss him. A great one. Love this one with his handwriting of the lyrics.
Hap, you said it was going to be a special video and song and it certainly was! Beautiful reaction! Yes there is a video about Freddie’s voice, I’ll try to find it for you. Freddie may have lost the battle for his life but he lives on in our hearts and souls forever! And through all his music and the videos. Freddie is singing with the angels in “Heaven” now! RIP my loving, gentle angel. 🧖🏻♂️❤️💯‼️🧖🏻♂️💋🇺🇸
Wonderful choice! This is the first anniversary for me as well. It’s almost Thanksgiving here in the States and today I’m so thankful for Freddie and that we can listen to his legacy of music even if he isn’t here . He is so missed but will never be forgotten!
Today is a rough day for us all, thank you. ❤️
I understand 💯💜
Your reaction brilliant as usual thanks for this beautiful song such a sad day but legends never die 💜 💖
Love seeing Freddie's handwriting!!
The perfect song for today, Hap. It's always been a favourite. ❤
He was in Switzerland at their studio because they didn’t hound him there. It’s the last song Freddie wrote by himself. He was looking out the window at the gorgeous scenery and came up with this. The writing on the video is his handwriting from the scrap papers he jotted the song on. It’s a beautiful song. He sang it to a drum beat knowing he wouldn’t last long enough for the music to be added. Heartbreaking, however, shows his love for his music. Hard to believe it’s been 29 years. He’s still with us though.
The Red Special was crying. Brian and Roger had a very difficult time putting the Made in Heaven album together sitting in the studio listening to Freddie singing out of the Amps.
The burning might represent the fact it was the last song Freddie wrote before he died.
By the way, Brian has Freddie’s piano in his home. He mentioned in a documentary that he treasures it and is so happy he has it.
His love of his life, Mary, got the lion share of his estate including his home and his share of royalties. They had been together before Queen was Queen.
There’s another great song on Innuendo called Don’t Try So Hard that’s awesome.
thanks, mmal...also, Brian's song -- "no one but you" -- is cry-worthy -
Yes..he wrote it and composed the music in the Duck House where he stayed in Montreux in 1991. Recorded I would say before Mother's love which he sung his last lyric in May 1991 before he never came back. So This had to have been recorded before May 1991 6 months or more prior to his death.
This absolutely breaks my heart. Have been a Freddie Mercury fan for many years. Giving away my age. Why was he taken from us so soon. His talents were endless. A day does not go by that I do not see and listen to Freddie. Keep his legacy alive. Thank you for the video. Over the years you can see how his music evolved. Can only imagine the what ifs if he had lived longer.
Love this song. A wonderful testament to the courage and love for music at this time of his suffering RIP Freddie. We miss you
This is one amazing song. To think he was on his death bed writing these beautiful words. He wrote, played piano, and sang this song in his apartment......looking out the window. Just breath taking. Heart breaking and breath taking. Freddie you are so loved. You touched our souls.
Kaye
Thank you for honoring our pretty today emotional day for me I don't know about anybody else but this man is it always will be best singer in the entire world
Freddie was an angel with the soul of a poet : he was in agony , suffering , dying and he looked at the world around him and saw a beautiful , inspirational place 💔
A perfect choice, well done. 😹😹😹
Thanks for remembering Freddie. 29 years ago we lost him. Next year on September 5th he would been 75 and in November 30 years since his passing.
And 50 years of Queen👑
OMG - 😭 FREDDIE!! Oh Hap, the handwriting in the video is Freddie’s handwriting. Queen made sure it was included..... “a little this a little that”. The Red Special is mourning Freddie’s passing 😭 JUST BEAUTIFUL
I was going to say the same thing 😥😥
And yes, you are right, the Red Special was crying for him, it lost a very close friend, someone that would (and is) be missed forever.
And the fire piano, his soul-mate was gone, so it had no reason to keep on playing...maybe...who knows?
And John Deacon is not with Roger and Brian because after Freddie's death he considered that the heart and soul of Queen had died, gone. He actually said, "What's the point of having a Ferrari in the garage if there is no one to drive it?" And he left. For John, there could only be Freddie as Queen frontman. Period.
And I totally agree with him.
Of course Queen music continues, it's too amazing not to, and there can be other singers colaborating with Brian and Roger, but there can not be another Queen frontman. Sorry, in that I'm inflexible.
That is why even Adam Lambert is a good singer, that he is, he is not Queen, he just is not. Never.
Its al sooooooo beautiful!! Such a heartfelt song, amazing. So much respect for him. R.i.p. our dear Freddie. Thankyou Hap for this Nice reaction as always, Much love❤
This is actually my favorite Freddie song. Thank you Hap !!
Cheers Haps..........Made In Heaven was their best work in my opinion........where has the last 29 years gone, I remember it like it was yesterday.........RIP Freddie.........Gone but never forgotten.
Thanks HAP! It was a great tribute to Freddie. It is a so beautiful song, but sad as well. RIP Freddie We will never forget you!
Beautiful song, beautiful reaction!
Next- No one but you. Amazing very sad song
"Like a landscape painting in the sky"
that bit gets me, all the time!
Freddie has been gone for a long time, but will live on forever! RIP my beautiful Man!❤💔❤💔❤💔
Today is a sad day, according to Jim Hutton Freddie died at 18:48 (soon to be). I often wonder what would he be doing today if he had lived..Writing musicals, or opera? Sitting in a jury of a talent show? (I don't think he would like that :-) Such a loss, we would still be listening wonderful music created by this excpectional man if only destiny had sent him a different way..
Brian and Roger have both said , if Freddie was still with us, the band would most definitely still be together but they don't think they would be touring
This is Freddie and Queens way of saying when things are on fire, or someone is passing, everything will be ok. New beginnings for sure. What an EXTRAORDINARY BEAUTIFUL PLACE, where we are. This life is bliss, some of us just don't know. Queen knows it's possible to have the earth in our hands and to be able to change this earth into a better life for everyone.
Thank you for your beautiful and respectful reaction for Freddie's anniversary.i love this song choice and it feels like Freddie is winking at you. R.I.P Freddie. 🙏💙🎵💕
Thank you Hap. Such a beautiful & touching song!!! Freddie's voice is so powerful. I love this song but it makes me so sad. So beautiful. Great reaction as always.
Grazie grazie mille volte per l’amore che dimostri per Freddie ❤️ Grazie di cuore ❤️Freddie per sempre 🌹🌹🌹
Well, I've heard this song many times before from the cd, but I got all choked up by the way you reacted, and realized what a huge part he played in our lives. Good choice. Thanks!
Lovely way to mark the day ❤️
John wouldn’t have retired if Freddie had lived. 👑
Stunning music in this song and sung in Freddie's amazingly unique style. Such beautiful lyrics by Freddie, which are so uplifting and positive - does this give a clue as to his state of mind being in a place of peace as he was writing? The final line "It's bliss" speaks of peace and contentment.
It was the last song Freddie wrote and he recorded the vocals & it was indeed the music & the composition was finished off & released on Made in Heaven after he died.
Mother love was the last song Freddie recorded in May 1991. He left because he was tired...having not finished it...and he never went back....hence Brian had to sing the last verse. It’s such a sad song but an exceptional vocal
Freddie only had a few weeks in his life. And wrote these words while looking outside his window in Montreal. The part by Brian is his sorrow for Freddie dying. Beautiful song. What a gift he left us. His handwriting is scrolling as he sings. So sad 😥
This is a beautiful song I’ve been listening to Queen and just Freddie all week it seems like yesterday we lost him left us to soon he had so much more to give life is just not fare some times just like when we lost Elvis at the age of 42 it’s just not fare they say the good die young so sad Love ❤️ from Denise ya Yorkshire lass ❤️🏴🏴🏴👑👑👑👍🙏🙏👋😘XX
Gosh, Hap thank you for featuring this beautiful song today!! I means so much to me. I agree with your summary of Freddie’s piano and the Queen photo burning- I think perhaps it was symbolic of Freddie’s end and Queen as we knew was no more. I really thank you Hap! You are a lovely man-💛🎶
I had to get the CD “Made In Heaven” that this song & every one on it are so meaningful and his last works. How wonderful to leave us with this body of work. Remarkable ❤️
This is one song, of many that keeps me gong on bad days/ I have some health issues..
Awesome
Thanks brother
RIP Freddie 29 years ago you left us for something better.
John is not with Queen because he could not carry on without Freddie, I think he would be touring if Freddie was still around. Freddie said if he was not with Queen he would become a skip artist, instead he became Gods entertainer
Queen would still be together now if Freddie was still alive but they wouldn't be touring, Brian and Roger have both said this, their performances wouldn't have the same energy and Freddie certainly wouldn't be running around the stage at 70 odd yrs old
I see everyone has given you the details on this one. That Freddie could see all the beauty around him while knowing how grave his situation was is a testament to his true character.
Lovely tribute for a lovely song & a lovely man. Thank you ❤️.
Oh the boys thought it was over, all three of them.
Good cheer to you. 🥂🥂
Thanks for this, Hap. It's a beautiful song to mark the 29th year of Freddie's passing. Freddie was very lucky to be surrounded by friends when he passed. There was a lot of stigma about AIDS at the time and some people died alone. I read that Freddie helped people that lost their jobs due to illness and couldn't pay their mortgage or rent. He was a very generous and soft-hearted person. Freddie's boyfriend Jim, his chef and ex Joe Fanelli and his PA Peter Freestone all lived at Garden Lodge and Mary visited every day even though she had a toddler and was pregnant with her second child. Freddie had a lot of people that loved him. 💛
Thank you for this.
The guitar tone of the solo sounds like ice crystals. Perfect sound choice for A Winter´s Tale.
One of a kind..... Freddy. When he died I had a thought that the world is really going to miss out in the future...........luckily the recorded music is bringing him back fresh every time
And thats it feels a new generation of music lovers know him ❣👑
@@HAP3SPEAKZ he is still one of my favorite driving music..........
He singing about Montreux in Switzerland...
For next month, write it on your ToDo-list... "Thank God It's Christmas!" by Queen ;-)
Thank you so much dear Hap for another great reaction and for honoring Freddie's memory ❤. What a beautiful song 💔
I have teary eyes every time.
RIP Dear Freddie.
You are so missed💖💔💫
I think Freddie wanted to take the essence of the beloved instrument ,the piano, with him. A comfort, possibly a a time of so much music still in his heart .i think he wrote the lyrics and music and all there was for someone to finish. I guess Freddie always had his own way of doing things, asi n the making of one vision documentary.
We still miss you freddie❤
I think it's one of their most gorgeous songs. When I listen to it, I feel blessed, full of peace. It was the last song he wrote, his last gift to us, and it shows how beautiful his soul was.
It's difficult to know what would have happened in a different world, but I believe that with Freddie, Queen would have gone in a different direction and John would have been part of it. Maybe they would have stopped touring at some point in the 90s, though.
29 years ago today.....thank you Hap! This is one of my favorites
I love this song as I knew when freddie in Montreux after strolling over to see his swan freddie sat at the water's edge and was inspired to wrote this beautiful song A Winter's Tale... and said it's a Christmas Song about Switzerland and a life in the mountains i hope I am not mistaken... but its just only my comment thank you for sharing...
Wow, I have never heard this song. It’s so beautiful!! And he had such a beautiful landscape in Montreux to look at and get inspired. Wonderful reaction HAP!! 🌻🌻🌻
AS daedala mentioned, there is a wonderful photo of Freddie's "song writing scribble book" on a table on the terrace of his beautiful flat he bought with Jim Hutton shortly before he died. They decorated it together.. They never got back there again sadly. Jim said in his book Freddie wanted a photo of them waking around the lake which they did mostly daily, but they didn't have a camera with them & Freddie died before they ever took one. Jim said it is his biggest regret. Imagine that THAT bothered him so much. Freddie initially rented what's known in Switzerland as The Duck House, a lovely little lakefront home (pix are available) . Since Lake Geneva is filled with swans & ducks, Roger jokingly called the lakefront rental house DUCKINGHAM PALACE
🦢 🦆 🦤... Freddie loved the tranquility so then bought the flat on the top floor of another residence on the lake ... there's a beautiful photo of Freddie on that terrace in a light blue suit, very tranquil but also sad knowing what little time they got to enjoy it.. I often wonder did Mary get that place too. Though Freddie once sat in the yard of Garden Lodge, with both Jim & Mary, he stated, perhaps faciously, "You should bury me here in my garden so I can keep an eye on you all"., he did also once say he would only tell Mary. where to put his ashes because "I don't want anyone digging me up !!" So I often wonder wouldn't it make sense if he asked her to spred his ashes over Lake Geneva which he adored for its tranquility...as you can hear in this song... just wishful thinking on my part since his monument is at the Lake as well as the Queen Museum.
Such a sad Anniversary 😥 but thank you, HAP, for taking the time to do this video for this anniversary. Your admiration & love for Freddie is apparent .
Great reaction Hap and thanks for sharing 👏👏👏👏. Someone else mentioned that the AIDS vaccine was waiting for sign off and some feel he could have survived had it not taken that time. But I am not convinced ... he had survived more than twice as long as others who had full blown AIDS. He would have been able to get access to the very best of treatments available including test vaccines. We shall never know it all... all we can say is Thank you Freddie ... the legacy you left was priceless👑❣️
Grate Freddie Mercury R. I. P
He wrote it from his hospital bed, he did the keyboards and vocals, Brian, Roger and John did the backing track. The guitar solo by Brian is incredible
He recorded it at metruex studios may 91
I dont think he had any hospital treatment there
He just sang the song
Freddie was never in hospital, all his treatment was done at home
my mother loved freddie, i love freddie, they are both now passed, RIP, such a stunning artist, such a talent, an incredible singer and song writer, oh how i miss him, i seen him live in slane with queen, i sit here with tears in my eyes, i miss them both. life is too short, tell those who you love that you love them, before it's too late. love to you all x
💕 I hear you.
YES, I loved your reaction, I always love your reactions and especially your Queen reactions, done with so much love and sensitivity for this group and Freddie. Thanks ! Merci beaucoup ! by the way, you were very elegant today !
Freddie played piano always & wrote "A Winter's Tale" close to his death. The burning of the piano & music is obvious. Represents his loss in a heartbreaking way. My take on that. Yes the guitar made me cry. I'm a 74 yr. old superfan. Queen will never be the same. He died with Jim, Mary & some band members. He is missed. Love the song. When did he record it?? Curious.
