I feel like "but I didn't know it was Queen" perfectly captures the ways in which their music has always been ever-present in our lives even when we didn't know who we were listening to.
It's different for me as they are my mum's favourite band, so I knowed all the songs already from her signing them. They'll all feel different one day once she's no longer around
@Coopiedoo0 Homeboy Hey Eric church doesn't it's called the homeboy homeboy by Eric church
Exactly correct...I'd been hearing it for years on my local AM radio powerhouse and was none the wiser until once when I was 15 and out at a small dinner party with my dad, and I asked the host to pull A Night at the Opera out of his stacks and give it a spin (so that I could hear "Bohemian Rhapsody" while totally high af) ---complete surprise to me that this was Fred & Co. hiding in plain sight all along
I still remember when I was first discovering Queenâs discography in the late 2000âs, when I found out they did âWe Will Rock Youâ and âDonât Stop Me Nowâ and the diversity in their style, the pure talent they had, Iâve been a fan ever since đ
Written by John deacon for his wife
God bless Deacy
Did not know that. If true, my main curiosity is why didn't John throw something magical via bass? He almost NEVER played lead bass Orr took a bass
, ...solo. very, very shy and surrounding himself with others who would have savored th light.
Spin it again...
Thanks I thought Freddie wrote it for his best friend Mary.
Somehow that nugget of information slipped through the cracks for me. Thanks dude.
John wrote this song to his Veronica so perfectly, that they have been married for 47 years.
I've been a Queen fan since 1973, I was 12 - Best Friend was written by the fabulous John Deacon in 1975 for his wife and was on their 'Night at the Opera' album. It's definitely in my Queen top ten favourites. Just love it!
The whole Night at the Opera album is FANTASTIC. It's always paired with The Game in my head because my parents had recorded them from the vinyl onto each side of a cassette when I was growing up, so I always hear the albums one after the other in the car.
Me since 1974 and I agree 100%!
Was just about to post this đ
Yea, John is underrated song writer outside "true" Queen fans . Spread your Wings is my favorite John Deacon song. Cannot believe it is not on Greatest hits 1, 2 or 3.
Youâre My Best Friendâ was written by the bandâs bass player, John Deacon. He composed this love song for his new wife, Veronica Tetzlaff, whom he married in January 1975, shortly before the album was recorded.
Queen had just purchased an electric piano for their studio but Freddie didn't like how it sounded compared to his grand piano so he refused to play it. John decided to take it home and teach himself how to play the piano. He said that the song just sort of jumped out of the piano as he taught himself to play it. (It is a totally different vibe than the Queen song, "Another One Bites The Dust" which John also wrote.)
BTW - John and Veronica are still married and have 6 kids.
In the 1970s, I won an 8th grade draw. My prize was A Night At The Opera. I sat next to a charismatic girl who wore tight jeans before anyone else in our school. I liked her a lot and she was a huge Queen fan. She started asking me if I knew this song or that song. And then she asked me if I knew "You're My Best Friend"". I said no, I did not know that I was her best friend. It felt like a red-faced eternity and I was gutted with embarrassment but she was mercifully tactful and carried on (without missing a beat) by telling how much fun it was to open the cellophane covering on a brand new album. So, yeah, I was a real player in 1976.
đ
What a sweet memory! đ
đ đđ
Played well by her. Play on player
Love that story! â€
As others mentioned, John wrote this about his wife. The story behind this is they purchased the keyboard, but Freddie would only play piano. John wanted to learn keyboard, so he took it home and wrote this song as he was learning. Notice John is playing keyboard in this. Itâs one of my favorite. Fan from the beginning.
âIt makeâs me think of you â đ„č I love you guyâs â€
Takes me way back to my teenage years, every Queen song was different from the last and everybody sang along word for word with the radio, we saved all our money for albums and concert tickets. One of my favorite memories was hanging out at the bowling alley on Friday night and when We will rock you / We are the Champions came on and everyone on every single lane would start doing the Stomp Stomp Clap, you could literally feel the building shaking. So much great music back then â„
I married my best friend so this song really hits home for me. Weâve been married for 29 years next month. â€ïžâïžđŒ
We used this song in our wedding after I kissed my bride. It was perfect for that moment.
In 1976 this song was huge and Queen came to Adelaide, Australia and I went to their concert, I was 14 and it was my second concert...the first being the Jackson Five in 1972. Spectacular and Freddie towards the end of the concert had this giant bunch of red roses which he handed out to the audience at the front and someone got Brian May's drum sticks. All of us not at the front were so jealous! I wonder if anyone still has their rose!
It is in a commercial for AT&T. So many "sounds" from Queen is what makes them PHENOMENAL! Can't put them in a category of anything but their own.
Another classic John Deacon song. Only a band like Queen can make a song like this cool. The harmonies on this are spectacular. There's an audio-only version of this song that really accentuates those harmonies!
I hope Freddy knew how much joy he brought this planet. He was such a beautiful being.
This song is on my list of the most perfectly crafted pop-rock songs due to the great chord progression, beautiful melody and background harmonies, the heartfelt lyrics and the perfect melodic guitar solo and riffs (it was on their classic album A Night At The Opera, which I played like crazy when I was a kid). As other people have commented, it was written by the bassist, John Deacon, in reference to his wife.
This song has been used in commericals and tv-shows so I'm sure you've heard it before. I also didn't know it was Queen at first. It's crazy how versatile they are.
Brad: "It makes me think of you"
Lexi: .......just keeps on talking LOL
Yeah...I think Lex missed that one at first đ
Sometimes the songs that at first blush are lyrically trite (another example is âHere Comes The Sunâ) when they end up in the right hands - Queen - become profound. This is one of my favorite songs.
Only people who have not listened to more than a few Queen songs would say "this does not sound like Queen". When this song was released (the next single after BoRap) it was the perfect follow up because its NOT the same ;) Queen "sound" is undefinable.
This might be my favorite song from the album. And I think it's a perfect song for Brad and Lex.... You guys are so well suited for each other.
I think it`s their best album..
@@hosehead58 I absolutely agree. There's a lot of genius on this record... But, Queen fell down far very quickly afterwards. They essentially became a "singles" band
@@markallen2984 I agree in return, Mark..the only other disc I bought was the Greatest Hits, because of all of the good singles lol
A Night At The Opera has some of my favourite Queen songs, some I prefer to this one, but it wouldn't be my favourite album of theirs.
And I don't feel they became a singles band after that either. To me each album only has a couple real singles (Hot Space almost none), and some of their later albums I could listen to pretty much no skips, which I couldn't do with their earlier albums
Although bassist John Deacon composed this song for his wife, You're My Best Friend has already been used in several commercials and films, including two animations that had pets as main characters: The Secret Life of Pets (2016) and DC League of Super-Pets (2022).
a total masterpiece. very touching. They were on fire here.
This is probably my favorite Queen song....although it is honestly so very hard to select just one. I have loved Queen since the first time I heard them at around 15.
Perfection. Vocals, drums, guitar, bass, electric piano/keyboards. Everything is right.
â€ïžAbsolutely a favorite! Always reminds me of my sweet best friend who passed away 16 years ago. Weâd sing this song together all the time.
Another Queen song you should react to is Love Of My Life. Beautiful!
Written by bassist John Deacon about his lovely wife Veronica - in 1975 they were newly-wed and expecting their first baby.
But the truly unique backstory on this : There was an Electric Piano at the studio - Freddie *hated* the thing and absolutely refused to play it. ( âWhy would anyone want to play a horrible electric piano when we have this lovely grand piano ?â, he saidâŠ)
So John, being who he is, took the electric piano home with him⊠*and taught himself how to play keyboards*
It was in the process of this self-teaching project that the song idea struck him.
He wrote âYouâre My Best Friendâ and took himself, the electric piano, and the song idea back to the studio.
John ended up playing the electric piano part ON the studio recording because , as he himself said âThe song was written on electric piano, and thatâs how it sounds best.â
Queen is a great rock band! đ¶đ¶đžđžđžđ
No,itâs the greatest band and Freddie his theG.O.A.T performer.Iâm so happy to see a new generation of Queen fans,since the movie Bohemian Rhapsody,Queen is everywhere and Freddie is really one of a kind.This band is the perfect mix.
Just classic John Deacon!! That's him playing the electric piano - the main instrument in this song.
I've been well acquainted with the song for decades but your commentary about the dog made me smile.
One of the best feelgood song that ever been made....
This is by John to his wife Veronica 40+years.
It has a different sound for Queen, but it has a Queen sound to it. Hard to explain, but easy to listen too.
Ooh, you make me live
Whatever this world can give to me
It's you you're all I see
Ooh, you make me live now, honey
Ooh, you make me live
Oh, you're the best friend that I ever had
I've been with you such a long time
You're my sunshine and I want you to know
That my feelings are true
I really love you
Oh, you're my best friend
Ooh, you make me live
Ooh, I've been wandering 'round
Still come back to you (still come back to you)
In rain or shine, you've stood by me girl
I'm happy at home (happy at home)
You're my best friend
Ooh, you make me live
Whenever this world is cruel to me
I got you to help me forgive
Ooh, you make me live now, honey
Ooh, you make me live
Oh, you're the first one when things turn out bad
You know I'll never be lonely
You're my only one
And I love the things
I really love the things that you do
Oh, you're my best friend, oh
Ooh, you make me live, live, live, live
I'm happy, happy at home
You're my best friend
Oh
Oh, you're my best friend
Ooh, you make me live
Ooh, you're my best friend

I love how it is Brad that completely breaks this song down and provides the majority of the analysis here - spot on!
to truly love someone they have to be your best friend, Queen are just Excellence all around i have been a fan of queen since the early 70's legendary band.
how AMAZING are their harmonies?
I was born in the 60s, and I thought this was the Partridge Family for a loooong time, lol. It's a great song...Queen have many different styles of song.
This song has been used in numerous tv shows.
Petsmart, AT&T, Carnival Cruise Line... this has been in several commercials over the years.
Song was written by bass player John Deacon about his wife he is the same one who wrote another one bites the dust but of course Freddy voice always brings songs to life you have no idea what queen does clearly Queen in the 70s which is when this song was recorded check out the long hair Queen in the '80s and then Queen in the 90s they even say that in the song Radio Gaga our music changes through the years Queen does everything from pop R&B Jazz to Opera you are so late to the party
This is one of the songs I use as a ringtone for my husband, my best friend.
This song has such a nice feel to it, I like the keyboard intro it also made me think of our dogs lol itâs weird seeing Queen this young and Iâm not used to seeing Freddie without a moustache
My favorite Queen song ! đâ€đ
A friend will bail you out of jail. A BEST friend is sitting next to you in the cell going âyeah but it was still pretty awesome, wasnât it?â đ
"Killer Queen" is peak Queen for me. Probably because of where I was at in my life when it was new.
Thank you for thisâŠ
More Queen pleaseâŠ.
If you watch certain commercials, youâd be surprised how man 70-80â đ¶ songs are used instead of âjingles.â Iâm sure thatâs why many songs seem a little familiar to you. Start paying closer attention to commercials and see what bands they play. đ
Love this song!
Lovin some Freddie! This song has been in a bunch of things over the years.
From A Night At The Opera, same album that had Bohemian Rhapsody.
I don't think John is writing about forgiving his "best friend" (fiancée) here; he says 'you HELP me forgive". In other words, Veronica helps him put grudges aside and move on, and that's why he loves her.
Brad, Lex is your best friend, never, ever let her go!
She is a keeper!â€ïž
This song always reminded me of the Partridge Family show. I like it.
So envious of that dude. He's in love and its with his best friend. One day......
Hey guys what's up! Greetings from South florida! You can't go wrong with Queen ever. Hope you guys got through the hurricane all right. You guys rock! God bless you! Peace!
I remember this song from circa 1976 and absolutely fell in love with it as a 14 year old. Loved Queen since bohemian rhapsody the year before i think
How many tv shows, and commercials have used this song in them, over the last 40 plus years? I don't know the number, but it's a lot.
Great song.
I've always thought this would be the perfect song for a dog commercial. I used to sing this to my dog. đ
The only Queen song that sounds like the Partridge Family
Nothing wrong with that I Think I Love You was a great song
And David Cassidy is a legend RIP.
I can hear that đ
Lex:"makes me think of a dog"
Brad:"it makes me think of you!"
đ¶đŠđŠđŠđ€đ đđ€·đŒââïž
So much of Queen has been sampled for commercials, in movies...
An excellent choice. For more off that album check out the prophets song. Everything Queen does and did is excellent.
Deacy wrote some of the best songs Queen ever did imo
My favorite is "Spread Your Wings"
Favourite Queen song.
John deacon wrote the song and played the keyboard as Freddie didn't like to play that type of keyboard. But he played the piano when they performed it live. Great song!
This is one of their best.
One of my momâs favorite Queen songs!! She owned the vinyl albums of A Night At The Opera & A Day At The Races! She passed in 2018. đą The song has been featured in several TV Shows & Film .. most notably The Break-Up with Vince Vaughn & Jennifer Aniston & the zombie cult classic Shaun Of The Dead. Wonderful song! đâïžđ·đŠ
Brad is too funny! Yes, there is that moan and ahhhh at the end that lets you know it's not just a 'buddy', it's a lover-best friendship. Is it warm in here, or is it just all the candles in that video. But as 100 folks are already telling you, it was John Deacon, that quiet bass player (who is playing the piano here) that wrote this for his lovely lady-wife. I guess a bit of moaning does fit the bill as they have 6 kids.
Roger "You can never have enough drums and cymbals" Taylor
Thank you for sharing this with me đ
Me and my best friend in high school did a class project to this song. Good memory đ
As people said here, it was written by John Deacon, the bassist, for his wife....you can see him playing the piano here on the video....Queen were a multi talented bandđ€©
Queen are just stuffed with 'classics', they were the first band to be inducted into the songwriters Hall of Fame, all four members penned hits.
That's extremally rare in a rock band, every album had a high standard in songwriting alone.
They sold 90.23 million studio albums over 15 releases, a solid average of 6 million per effort.
Legends, never will we see their like again. RIP Freddie Mercury
Get your mind out of the gutter Lex! lol. This is a beautiful love song.
The whole A night at the opera album is perfect. Listen to The Prophet song.
I played this song at my wife of 36 years funeral along with van morrison's brown eyed girl
Iâm Iâm so sorry for your loss đą
Love this because it is less emphatic than their usual hits. Just a good listening tune. Not everything needs hype.
My dog is my best friend. Just noticed you were talking about animals. Love your opinions on the reaction videos of everything.
From the same album (A Night At The Opera) as Bohemian Rhapsody. This album is their masterpiece. Every song is different. My favorite song on this album is the one right after You're My Best Friend it's called 39 sung by Bryan May the guitar player. Acoustic guitar and double bass. There first song Death On Two Legs is great rocker about their first business manager who stole all their money from their first 3 albums. Enjoy the channel and wishing you two the best on your family journey when your boy arrives. Maybe he'll become the next Freddie Mercury.
There are a lot of good songs on "A Night at the Opera" but there are a lot of filler songs, too.
"Death on two Legs" And "I'm in Love with my Car" are basically unlistenable
@@markallen2984 Personal taste, I really like those songs ;0)
@@markallen2984 Agree with "I'm in Love with My Car," but totally disagree with "Death on Two Legs (Dedicated to...)." The former is a filler but the latter is a banger, especially performed live!
Despite being the quiet member of Queen, John Deacon was very great with words in songwriting. He also did âI Want To Break Freeâ and âOne Year Of Loveâ. This song has been played on everything from PetSmart commercials to dating app ads. Itâs one of Queenâs best songs.
Finally! I havenât seen any đother channel do this Queen song. Brings back fond memories!!
You guys would like the story behind âWait in the Truckâ by Hardy and Lainey Wilson. Itâs got a great message!
Brad, donât let Lex gloss over you saying to her, â I think of you!â. You deserve serious points in your âI fucked upâ bank!! đđđșđž
Lmao next time he fucks up, he better hand her this video timestamped to that exact comment đ
acoustically, its really clean. :)
That's hilarious. You know how I discovered the song? it was when Bohemian Rhapsody and Killer Queen were two highly played songs on the radio and I can't remember which one it was because I ended up with both of them, but I was a kid and I managed to score them for cheap at a yard sale and I mostly would play side a but one of them, side B was this song, and after a while I realized that I really liked it. it's still one of my favorite Queen songs.
One of two records I ever brought of Queen and still my favourite single of theirs. (not a large pool to select from admittedly)
Bassist John Deacon wrote this for his wife....Freddie always have his all for John's songs...
Very true. Freddie's vocals always great but he made extra sure to do his best when Deaky wrote the song.
Wrote this out for my first crush at 14 in 1981. â€
Hard to believe the same John Deacon that wrote this also wrote Another One Bites The Dust.
Thanks, kids! This is such a romantic song.. do you not realize that this song from John Deacon (bassist) is about his WIFE (I'm happy at home).... lol
Queen could do most styles fantastically!
It's funny cuz the few songs that John Deacon wrote were some of their biggest hits. This one and another one bites the dust come to mind.
AOBTD US no 1
Uk 7
Its not diamond. Bo rap is. But AOBTD is still well known
This was uk no 7 the only top ten other than Freddie in the 70s
But its still well known now
Not all the hits then are still well known
I cant find info about all the streaming services
Bo Rap is the only one on spotify 100 at no 23 1.7b
John wrote 12 alltogether
Hits AOBTD. Break free uk no 3. Ymbf no 7.
All still known
Roger Taylor was a quintessential 70s drummer.
If you see the movie Bohemian Rhapsody about Freddie Mercury and queen it will explain a lot. Good movie great soundtrack!
Was a commercial âđŒđđ„°
Queen never had a bad song. Freddie's voice and Brian, John, and Roger doing their thing just always went together.
Body language was kind of a bad song... aside from that though, totally agree.
It was an advert for pets, like the vets or food or something
I remember thinking this was The Partridge Family. It's got a very "1970s TV theme" quality to it.
I can hear that đ
The thing people forget about Queen is that all of them were great songwriters.
Hey guys I really enjoy your reactions. I believe the song is about his best friend Mary. THEY did sleep together maybe a few times buy then Freddie realized he was a homosexual. I belive the will stayed she was left everything he had, money, properties, and collectibles. She had control over his life and career.
