When anyone asks "what genre is Queen?" The only answer is "yes".
But Yes is a prog rock band, so that answer doesn't work.
@@RastaSaiyaman Usted, caballero, efectivamente C MAMO.
@@RastaSaiyaman lol
Yea, Queen and Rush...they were their own genre. They we're the ones all bands sample from, even today.
@@jpman9795 i know rush and they were very down to earth.
Queen are among the gods of Rock n' Roll!!!! Excellent!!!!
Queen has in their catalogue literally song from every music genre, they were very different characters and songwriters. Roger said, that this is very Freddie song. Yes, more Queen, please👑
Freddie was born with a gift that came from above..no doubt!
Killer Queen written by Freddie, made the band headliners after their appearance in tv
Thank you for this, one of my top favorites by them ♥️💜
No 2 uk their first hit 1974
Edit
Freddie seven seas was no 10 earlier in the year
freddie won an ivor novello for this song
Freddie owned the stage!
Freddie Mercury was a huge fan of Broadway & opera... so you can hear that love in this song.
Queen was not just a rock band... they transcended genres. They had pop songs... they had a disco hit. They were very musically diverse.
this song is inspired by classical music not opera
To get the full genius of Freddie’s harmonies, check out the studio version of “You Take My Breath Away”. The live versions are equally great but the production and studio harmonies on the studio cut make it simply amazing.
YESSSS - Great suggestion!
At the moment, that's my favourite Queen song. It changes, often, but this one rips into my soul.
"You Take My Breath Away" gives me goosebumps every time, guaranteed. Beautiful piano part - it's Freddie's "Moonlight Sonata". And the vocals are just hauntingly good.
"Crazy Little Thing Called Love" is my all time favorite song of theirs👍 Worth yall checking out!
@@davidward9737 It's not a cover of Elvis, Freddie wrote it inspired by him.
Freddy wanted to write 'An Elvis Song" so he did. It's great too
You have to watch Queens full live aid performance (20 mins)!!! It’s amazing!
Freddy was definitely the epitome of a performer. He knew how to work the stage and put on a show. Gotta love that about him. That voice? No words. Another great reaction.
Freddie put everything he had into every performance. He never stopped moving on stage. He said if people are going to pay good money to see Queen perform he would make sure they got a great show. He was born to entertain.
QUEEN " Somebody to Love" Live 1981 Montreal. Some say it is the best performance they ever put on. 10x better than studio version. Freddie at his best.
Freddie is almost unanimously the greatest voice in "rock." They are definitely their own genre.
Omg. Haven't heard this in ages. Queen has amazing harmony and great performers. Nothing compares. RIP Freddie. You'll always be here through your music for generations ❤
This wasn't a live performance, but an extremely well done lipsynhcing! Top Of The Pops was a very popular British musical televison show between the 60s and the early 2000s, but all performances were playback. If you listen to it attentively once again, you will notice, that Freddie was harmoninsing with himself. Jimi Hendrix, Elvis, the Beatles and Led Zeppelin, etc. influenced the Queen's music and Queen had the same impact on subsequent musicians.This song brought Freddie a privileged British musical award and he won another one for the Bohemian Rhapsody as well. I agree Freddie was a great story teller.
They were my first concert when I was 15 and I cherish every minute, note movement Freddie made. it was one of the best nights of my life. Miss him so
So jealous of you right now 😁🌟⭐️💫
Queen, Still rocking out today. I miss Freddie.
Queen is still by far and large my favorite band of all time. There is no Queen without Freddie Mercury. RIP.
Yes! More Queen and more Asia and BJ!! What a great day!
This song definitely has a sort of theatrical sound to it if that’s the word I’m looking for. And being Queen they pull it off and it’s amazing!
classical not theatrical
@@roverwaters3875 It's certainly theatrical and very creative. Killer Queen is clearly inspired by Cabaret, Vaudeville and Music Hall.
I just love queen so much. My mom had every single album and 8 track. My mom had such a crush on Freddie lol. But I would ask for queen over and over again according to my mom even as a toddler I would make her play it over and over.
I’m with ya, Asia! I can watch him all the time, too. Freddie is absolutely mesmerizing as a performer.
The more you delve into their catalogue the more you'll love them. You are so right it is hard to take your eyes off him. Try| IT\S A KIND OF MAGIC , live at Wembley also at Wembley for a rockier sound TIE YOUR MOTHER DOWN and TEAR IT UP, ONE VISION... you won't say these songs are not rock..they even did a punck rock song: SHEER HEART ATTACK ...they even did funk/dance: ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST, live at Wembley and CALLING ALL GIRLS
You both are animated as well, love watching you both. Please react to White Queen at Odeon Hammersmith, Asia your jaw will drop and BJ you’ll love the dueling piano and guitar skills. Beautiful song!!!
What I've always loved about this music video is Freddie's supreme confidence, unmatched charisma and his theatrical moves and expressions. Nice rich sounding guitar work too.
"There hasn't been one Queen song that I didn't like yet." EXACTLY!! 👍👍🙂 I've been a fan for almost 45 years & have always felt exactly that way - never was there a Queen song I didn't like. 👍🎶
Killer Queen was the first to hit the radio waves back in the mid 70's. It was a sound that was never heard before and I fell in love with. Saw them in concert in '76. Thin Lizzy opened for them. Loved the concert!
This was 🔥 You cant put Queen in a box, they were so versatile. Really amazing! And their different styles throughout the years were unique! Once in a lifetime my darlings. May I suggest Stone Cold Crazy live at the Rainbow or One Vision live at Wembley? Much bless to you.
When they became popular, nobody admitted they liked them, but everybody had their albums.
Freddie was one of a kind, possibly the greatest rock performer ever. Queen's music live forever.
Have a great day.
More Queen,Save me & Somebody to Love live in montreal classics
Another dope reaction and great song checkout queen dragon attack, we are champions, either the studio or audio version of who wants to live forever, there live aid performance and the live version of somebody to love
Since you like showy, the obvious Queen song to do is the studio version of I want to Break Free and Crazy little thing called Love and Don't Stop me Now.
I still think you owe it to yourselves to listen to the Live, Montreal, version of Somebody to love. You've done the studio version but that live version is like a totally different song and considered one of the best live performances ever. Not just by Queen but by anybody.
Freddie absolutely raised the bar for what a front man can be. He was a performer to the bone.
Freddie Mercury was the center of attention and he loved it and we loved him. Guitar work from Brian & the tone in his guitar in this particular song reminds me of something I would listen to on my mom and dad‘s old Victrola when I was a kid. Nothing they ever did sounded like the last.
I love BJ's comment of Freddie, "he'll blow your mind".....right on! on point!
I saw Queen in 1974, they opened up for Mott The Hoople. One of my favorite Concerts ever !
thanks, guys - this was the first Queen song I ever heard - and loved it immediately - I was 14 - so yep - I'm old now - but my HS BFF and I were obsessed(!) - the rest of the HS thought we were strange for liking this "weird" band - they only noticed when Bohemian Rhapsody came out... I can now imagine how many of them finally realize that they "missed the bus" FORTY years ago -- lol -- I really enjoy all of your reactions and your open minds... thank you!
Have y'all reacted to "Who Wants to Live Forever" by Queen yet? It is one of my favorites. It was one of the many Queen songs used for the movie "Highlander" which is still one of my favorite movies (the original not the sequels).
Love me some original highlander and soundtrack!! Although since Freddie died who wants to live forever always makes me miss him and 😭
Second hit after 'Seven Seas of Rhye' and just before the behemoth that is 'Bohemian Rhapsody'. They had a hit before 'Bohemian Rhapsody' called 'Now I'm Here' but it's rarely played (probably understandable). I believe they only actually had 3 number 1 hits in the UK in their own right but had a few others in collaboration with other artists. For me 'Killer Queen' is one of their most original and best songs. Glad you liked it.
You're getting the best of Freddie's voice in the 70s, he had a few problems in later years, but saying that he was still one of the best.
Exactly, Queen is their OWN genre... So tragic that we lost Freddie. We will always love him, pure Genius.
Freddie is very magnetic..you really cannot take your eyes off him... Even Freddie's friends and his Roadie Peter Hince aka Ratty wrote about an incredible Aura Freddie had, he said you always knew when Freddie was in the room... In everything I watch I watch Freddie's every move... it's hard not too.
Every single song is different in every way, but you can always tell it's Queen! That's what make them the greatest band ever! The extraordinary talent of Freddie Mercury is what makes him legendary and deeply loved. 👑🌈💙 j
You need to see Freddie and Montserrat sing Barcelona, will give you an idea of what Freddie was capable of.
It makes me happy that y’all appreciate Freddie’s greatness. ❤️🔥
I love your reaction videos! Queen and Van Halen are my two all-time favorites, so I get a lot of joy seeing you two discovering their greatness. That said, there are a million great Queen songs for you to check out;
Bring Back That Leroy Brown - you guys can REALLY see how much Queen defied genres
Teo Torriatte - Brian plays Kyoto, and half the song is in Japanese!
You Take My Breath Away - Probably the most beautiful song they ever did.
Who Wants To Live Forever - Brian wrote it for the movie, The Highlander. Very poignant after Freddie's death
These Are The Days Of Our Lives - Last video Freddie made before he passed. VERY sad.
Show Must Go On - Chillingly good song, practically written and recorded by Freddie on his deathbed.
The real key to listening to Queen is to listen to albums in their entirety (a must with many great bands, like Pink Floyd). They'll hit you with a tremendous variety of styles in under an hour.
Queen made a point of exploring numerous genres of music. Every performance was unique. Have you heard “Innuendo”? Freddie was too sick to appear in the video, but the song is their BoRap version 2.0.
Do "Dragon Attack" live from Montreal 1981 - the first part is Freddie playing with the audience so watch at the 2 minute mark when Freddie struts across the stage dragging his back toe and kicking his feet out at the knee - so unusual - I love it!
You have such a lovely smile Asia and watching Queen and Freddie makes you smile. Please try some lesser know songs like 'Let me Live' or '39' or 'Melancholy Blues'. The variety will astound you and bring out that gorgeous smile once again.
My favorite Queen song. Freddie Mercury was such a power house
Great reaction. This is my favorite Queen song although it is very hard to choose one .😀👍❤️✌️🌼
Bit of magic at 2:23 when Freddie plays John's guitar ! haha
Queen takes you on a roller coaster youre memorized by every lyric. fantasies set to music. They were queen
Side note: Brian May, the guitarist, made his guitar from scrap wood. His dad helped him, he said he couldn’t afford to buy one. Instead of using a regular pick he uses a British coin to pluck the strings. By the way, Brian is a very smart man, he has a PhD in astrophysics.
Everyone becomes a queen fan at the same point in their life. The first time they ever hear them play. It's that simple.
Queen , "Who wants to live forever" (official video)-- this one is fantastic too.
This is the song that started my love for Queen , my favorite since 74 , it's called Glam Rock during that era , it was a very exciting time in music for me ! 😉
Queen is Queen baby!
Got their own music genre
I feel like this song and vibe suited Freddie so well. He was very much into the fine things in life. This is in my top 5 Queen songs 👑🤩
Plenty others have made great suggestions. I’d just love more Queen reactions. That’s all. My favourites
Rock was a progression with a vast array of styles. A lot of people get hung up on what genre was/is this, rock, pop, etc. It's all good.
The band Electric light orchestra (ELO) were contemporaries of Queen. They had many hit songs that bended operatic elements with rock as well
As always guys great reaction to best Rock band in the world ; ))Love this song..this the only song that i have an original Vinyl singel off ; ) have all their albums on Vinyl ...bought them on cd's to just to save the LP vinyls from being over played ; ))
A good word to use would be theatrical in place of broadway. They were definitely one of a kind. They still tour with a different singer but its not the same - the new singer isn't trying to be like Freddie, and unfortunately he's not as charismatic as Freddie on stage.
FALSE
@@roverwaters3875 opinions can't be false, so that makes your false - false
Asia I can see in your face and eyes when you watch Queen, you love Freddie mercury, 😊 he was brilliant enjoy , check Queens earlier songs and albums 👍
I saw them twice in concert. Both good shows.
Check out "Don't Stop Now" as well as the Live Aid Concert!!
Brilliant Review Queens Music Just Grabs Your Attention. I Was 15 When This One Was Released.😊👍
I call it Rock opera... Freddie wanted to be an opera singer. He loved the performing. So their performances were very operatic.
The Avett Brothers - Ballad of Love and Hate (live)
Tool - Wings for Marie pt.1 & pt.2
Aurora - Murder Song 5,4,3,2,1 (live at the Nobel peace prize concert)
Band of Horses - No one’s gonna love you
Iron & Wine - The Trapeze Swinger
Chris Cornel - Nothing Compares to you
Bright Eyes - First Day of My Life
This Mortal Coil - Song to the Siren
😢
Huge favorite as a kid, you all do such a great job with the music/analysis
You should check out a different song that is an amazing song material about growing up listening to the radio and how it's still loved by him and the way the crowd reacts to Freddie "Radio GaGa" live at Wembley Live Aid in 1985.He is in control and colorful as always. I think you'll like it. Especially Asia!
Check out their performance from live aid. You won't be disappointed. Love you guys.
I thought it was funny when you mentioned Broadway BECAUSE later on, Freddie WAS asked to be in Broadway shows... He was also asked to do other acting (like in movies)... but he turned all of that down, saying in an interview in 1982: "That's (just) not my bag!"😅
That was actually a great reaction. Not only did you really seem to enjoy it you had some really interesting comments to make. Loved it, thankyou.
you should watch a whole concert, Freddie worked the audience like i have never seen from anyone else. He was LOVED.
Cool that you mentioned it sounded like something Cruella de Vil would sing. There's a line of a Queen song that goes "We'll Cruella de Vil you!"
Let Me Entertain You (on the 1978 Jazz album czcams.com/video/LmeOC0OTY_Q/video.html or live at Montreal czcams.com/video/4GMAjjzU9Do/video.html). Played live at the start of the set (right after the fantastic "fast version" of We Will Rock You) on the Jazz and Crazy tours of 78/79... (Check it out on the "Live Killers" album czcams.com/video/lY31B6SFOCo/video.html recorded during that tour.).
Yes, please more Queen - the Millionaire Waltz, Teo Torriatte 🤗
Queen's passion for classical music is well known. Freddie's leanings to sing opera resulted in a number of collaborations where he followed opera artists, did a fair job, but always looked like a pretender :):)
If you like this one check out "March of the Black Queen/Funny How Love Is".
There is a video here that has both songs together as they play out on the album.
Rock has always had many sub-genres. I decided long ago that Queen is just everything. They slide in and out of genres at will. Bohemian Rhapsody doesn't even have a genre. I can pick a love-song Queen playlist for days when that type of music appeals to me, and an upbeat hard rocker playlist when that's what I want. As has been said by so many - there is a Queen song for every mood and every situation. Great reaction!
BohRhap is rock.
@@roverwaters3875 Maybe I should have added an "In MY Opinion" before expressing myself. BohRhap is in my personal genre of Rock+++++ A personal thing. It's all by itself. ;-)
You guys got it right.....vocals, harmonies, guitar sounds like no other!
I love your reaction video's. I saw Queen in San Francisco in the 70's. They don't just put on s concert they put on a show. I was in awe of Freddie Mercury. Absolutely a breathing concert.
they are everything. if you want some hardrock you can find it, if you want some pre-metal you can find it, even if you want some soul or dance or funk you can find it with queen. try „was it all worth it“, „white man“, „gimme the prize“, „soul brother“, „mustapha“, „all dead, all dead“, „seaside rendevouz“, „sail away sweet sister“, „it‘s late“, „back chat“, „death on two legs“, „fight from the inside“, „loser in the end“, „dear friends“.............and on and on.....
Freddie is definitely a theatrical performer.
You’re right, there was no band ever or since like Queen. At heart, they were rockers, but their sound was, as BJ said, “It’s Queen.” Freddie Mercury was the consummate front man with a magisterial 4 octave range, and the rest of the band was spot on.
I love your commentary - you just get it! Peace and love!
First hit in GB,amazing band
As Freddie once said about the song, High-class people can be hookers too..their breakthrough song and a naughty subject too, very Freddie Mercury! Your broadway reference is bang on. He loved theatre, Liza Minelli and vaudeville which is a bit of the style in this song...
I like a smile of Asia, like of a child who discovered a bowl filled with candy 🤗
This is Glam Rock, folks! Queen was the best at that, at least back in the '70's!!
I was fortunate enough to see Queen in concert twice during the 70s! Freddie was actually trained in singing opera!
FALSE
False what?
Great reaction. Freddie could sing anything check out Stone cold crazy live at the rainbow 74
You need to do some of the later music off to his last album *Innuendo (I'm going slightly mad) (These are the days of our lives) (Theshow must go on)*
Wholeheartedly agree, although you had better have your tissues handy.
I was 13 in 1974 when I watched this performance on Top of the Pops in the UK - I was mesmerised and from that day on I've been a lifelong fan... I even painted my nails on one hand black... and got sent to the year head's office to remove it.
Karina..I love that you painted your nails black...did you know that Brian May painted his white?..each one of them only had one hand with painted nails. Also, for anyone who wants to know, the explanation of the song is that it’s about a high class call girl. Listen again to the lyrics🤩
Thanks for doing this. Queen is unique from the get-go and this is unique as a Queen song. Very cool
Radio GaGa is one of my favorite Queen songs. Would love to see your reaction to that one. Should do the live version from Live Aid
LOVE Freddie!! Asia's beautiful & bright smile sure doesn't hurt, either.
This was their first real hit. The performance is on Top of the Pops and they had to lip sync which they hated. I think it's a fun time capsule though...the clothes, the song, everything. Love it!! Play Queen Loud!
