A neurological study was done observing the brain response in people listening to this, and because the pleasure reaction was so extreme, it was considered the happiest song ever written. Some might dispute this now with the advent of other songs, but it's not hard to believe it could be that awesome. Thanks for your fantastic take on this!
I remember nearly a decade ago, I was a drug addict and deep into my depression. My best friend must have noticed when I got into his car. He played this song and sang along with it. I just remembered feeling happy listening...
@@MR-tf6gl how are you today?
I believe it, my 3 year daughter goes crazy for this song!
Interesting! I would probably say it's Mr. Blue Sky by ELO for me, that song always makes me smile ear to ear no matter what I'm going through. But this song also get's me going when I'm feeling down too, so I can totally see that!
I'd believe it. it's fantastic. Mr. Blue SKy from ELO does the same for me
Brad: "Is this even rock?"
Freddie: "This is Queen, darling!"
Probably exactly what Freddy would of said
@@RK-zf1jm Along with "there's only room in this band for one hysterical Queen"
Just a couple of “Queens”.
Amen!!
It's not about drugs, it's about sheer exuberance. Being high on life.
Exactly ! Freddie enjoyed being a performer and a rock star , and enjoyed life.
Freddie very much enjoyed cocaine too Elton John has even said freddie could out party him anyday
@@anakinlapierre-tate4127 Yes , but it isn't about that specifically. Using cocaine or any drug was simply part of partying and having a good time.
I've always believed this was about keeping your morals and judgments to yourself, because, just for tonight, cuz I'm going to do whatever I want today and nobody's going to stop me!
"I think it's about drugs" seems to be the default setting around here. 😆
“Queen is so different.” Truer words have never been spoken.
Never attempt to put Queen in a category. The next song you hear from them will make your last guess totally wrong. There is no box they fit in. And NO this song is not about drugs. (not that at some points in their career they did not indulge) but they never wrote a song about it!
You will never know the real meaning of a Queen song. In MANY interviews both Frieddie and Brian have said they don't tell (or do videos) about what their songs about. It is up to the listener to decide whatever they feel.
@@nanner3200 im still waiting for the day Queen is a genre on Spotify
And I feel like I completely missed how good they were when I was growing up in the 70's and 80's .
“200 Degrees, that’s why they call me Mr Fahrenheit”. I LOVE that lyric and it perfectly describes Freddy.
Best lyric of all time
You can't put Queen in a box! They don't fit into any one genre - they are their own genre! Always surprising.
Facts!
Absolutely
They aren't as good as you think Janette listen to other bands.
@@Nichwar19 I have been listening to other bands since the 60's, and I love what Queen do. We don't all have the same taste in music!
I agree, being out of a box in music, is good ! Cause music is creativity not match. Make a new genre is something great
The lead guitarist is an English musician and astrophysicist who achieved fame as lead guitarist of the rock band Queen. May was a co-founder of Queen with lead singer Freddie Mercury and drummer Roger Taylor. His songwriting contributions helped Queen become one of the most successful bands in rock history. At Hampton Grammar School, he attained ten GCE Ordinary Levels and three GCE Advanced Levels in Physics, Mathematics, and Applied Mathematics.[21] He studied Mathematics and Physics at Imperial College London, graduating with a BSc degree in Physics in 1968 with honours.[22] Following his graduation, May received a personal invitation from Sir Bernard Lovell to work at the Jodrell Bank Observatory while continuing to prepare his doctorate. He declined, choosing instead to remain at Imperial College to avoid breaking from Smile, the London-based band he was in at the time.[23]
In 2007, May was awarded a PhD degree in astrophysics from Imperial College London for work started in 1971 and completed in 2007.
So impressed by the dichotomy of pursuits. Love this!
Don't forget Roger Taylor was a Dentist and John the bassist was a professor.
Bruh they are all english😂
If there is a heaven, the first thing I'll hear is Freddie's voice.
There is a heaven and hopefully we will all see freddie
Nah God can do better
No if there is heaven 1st thing I'll hear is God cause Freddie can't be there yet(Also heaven is real)
Freddie loved "having a good time", but he was not drug addicted and as he said in an interview "No one can stop me, honey." He has lived his rock'n roll lifestyle, but on the other side he was a funny, generous, caring, loving, kind and charming guy.
Queen is the most versatile rock band, they wrote their own stuff in several genres (cca. 15) from rock to jazz, to pop, etc. about 200 songs.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
They are the only band where every member wrote three number one hits
@@johntucker5291 absolutely incredible, do you happen to know that they were?
There's an old Polish proverb that says "God gives us our lives as a gift - and gifts are meant to be enjoyed" - Freddie enjoyed his gift 🎁
I wouldn't exactly say that he didn't have a drug addiction. He definitely took some (or a lot) cocaine in his life.
Hi guys. We picked this song to play at my sisters funeral, because it really represented her spirit. She was amazing! So 'don't stop me now' is imbedded in my life. So glad you liked it.
Queen does everything, all over the musical map. They even have a thrash metal song, before thrash metal even existed: Stone Cold Crazy. Check it out.
Thrash, not trash. ; )
@@module79l28 haha damn autocorrect
which is a reason that James Hetfield of Metallica sang it at the Freddie Mercury Tribute concert...
I'm sure Lex would love Stone Cold Crazy👍
MMMMM Sheer Heart Attack is pretty much there too.
Queen is rock. They may experiment with sounds but its still rock.
Queen is a Rock n' Roll band, at times they're a mix of soft or balled rock and hard rock!!! They incorporate every genre of music into their music like many other bands of their era, initiated by the Beatles!!! Queen was/is a over the top brilliant band and I have missed Freddie since the day he passed!!!👍👌✌😎
Fred's voice, and that Brian's guitar sound, are two of the most recognizable things about them. But those harmonies... no other band was tight with their harmonies like them.
did you know Brian wrote all the guitar solos in Freddie's songs?
The Beach Boys are the kings of harmony. Queen are the queens of harmony :P
Boston would be my third place in that Queen, Beach Boys harmony race.
Each one of the other band members had the vocal talent to be lead singers in their own rite
Ahem, Alice in chains...
The song is filled with energy, as is the band "Queen" itself.
FYI: One of the reasons Queen has so many different sounds is that they ALL write the music, each has his own individual styles, but they all put everything they have in supporting each other's written songs, they play as hard as if it is their own song. They were all SUPER talented!
This song always reminds me of the scene in Shaun of the Dead.
One of the funniest movie scenes ever! 😂
No synthesizers. No auto-tune. No computers. Just pure, raw talent!
No Synthesizers until the dreadful 'Hot Space'😁
Literally in 1979, one of the most popular artists in the UK that year, found success through the use of synthesizers. I'm talking about Gary Numan who had 2 number 1 singles and 2 number 1 albums in 1979, both as a solo artist and with Tubeway Army, I mean what you said doesn't make sense!
One thing that amazes me. Look when this group was out in the 70's. Yet everyone loved Freddie. Not a one person cared that he was gay. Not anyone even seen a gay man when they seen him. He was just Freddie a very talented performer who brought so many good memories for so many people.
Yeah I was talking about this with my girlfriend the other night. He was just an icon and nobody cared about his sexuality (accept the stupid press at times) and he was revered!
I don't think that's entirely true. He wasn't originally open with his sexuality from the beginning and only later revealed he was gay. And when he did, during the great AIDS scare, the homophobia ramped up hard. But Queen only got bigger with time after he died, rightfully so.
@@modifidious7171 Yes it was reported in the old Rolling Stones mag before it turned woke. Also it was pretty much known or excepted by way of Rolling Stone that Jagger and Bowie were both bi. True or not. The fact is it was believed and people didn't care.
@@modifidious7171 you are right
Elton John. Need I say more? The man was entertainment and iconic and who could give a rip above his private life.
I think this is one most fun songs ever, and not just because it's Queen's.
I love that Lex’s knowledge of musical theater helps her understand Queens musical composition. They married theater and rock in a way nobody else ever had before, they are both, and nobody else tries to in the same way because they know they can’t imitate Freddie.
Queen is the only one group, where every member wrote the number one song. Different characters, different songs. And Freddie liked to write and sing more genres of music…👑
Each member wrote more than one song that went to number one, not many bands can say that.
@@susanengland3919 oh really, I didn’t know that! What songs were they?
@@sir_sack they wrote ALL of the songs that they performed. Sometimes it was one of them doing the writing, often it was a collaboration of two of them, it varied but all of them wrote hits individually.
@@susanengland3919 I knew they wrote all of their songs and that they all wrote a number one song. I just didn’t know they all wrote multiple songs that went to number one. I was asking which songs they were.
@@sir_sack I know some of them, Freddie wrote killer Queen, bohemian rhapsody
Roger wrote radio gaga, I'm in love with my car
Brian wrote fat bottomed girls, good old fashioned lover boy
John wrote I want to break free
These are just the ones on top of my head
this is my son's 1st queen song he heard when he could comprehend music around 4 maybe 5 and till this day at 11 he plays it at least once,nest to bohemian, bicycle, we will rock you and another bites the dust. they all have to be played every day at least once.
Queen was considered the first arena rock band because they could sell them out. The fact that all 4 were professional musical genius artists helped. Every song is different. They wrote the fist heavy metal song - Stone Cold Crazy. Each member wrote at least 3 hit songs and all are in the songwriting rock hall of fame.
I can usually tell if Lex likes a song by hearing an ooh or eeh out of her during a breakdown or solo. I lost count after a half dozen. When Lex loves a song, the finger wag will come out. It took about Fifteen sec. into this song for that to happen.
Brian May Astro physicist plays the guitar and injects space themes. Love it. PHD on interstellar Dust, after taking off time to be a rock star. Nerds unite.
The Rock of the 60s and 70s is full of groups that use piano. Started in the 50’s as an outgrowth of ragtime and swing the generations before and carried over into jazz and original r&b and rock-n-roll. A staple for Jerry Lee Lewis, Fats Domino, The Doors, Emerson Lake & Palmer, Fleetwood Mac, Blue Öyster Cult, Kansas, Styx, Elton John, Lynyrd, Skynyrd, Pink Floyd, Yes, Genesis and so many other groups that rocked the piano just like Queen. Many Queen fans would have liked to see Freddie do more piano, as he drifted away from it as time marched on. The piano has been a pivotal force-multiplier for rock music all along really. The Queen sound really comes from innovative arrangements, rhythms, songwriting, and the unique voices they created individually, in harmony, or in guitar expression. Freddie was a genius, but all four were songwriters that worked on the band’s arrangements - and each provided vocals at different times. Like Chicago, Earth Wind & Fire, Eagles, or the Beatles, Providence played a role in bringing these artists together to form Queen. 🤘🏻
Watching Brad trying to categorise Queen. and others .... Love it!... We all do it! And the list of genres and sub genres these days in in the many hundreds.... but I have to agree with comments below on the lines.. all great artists are themselves and create their own form of life and mirror to it..... Queen is Queen.... Hendrix is Hendrix..... Beatles are Beatles.... Beethoven is Beethoven .. Chuck Berry is Chuck Berry ..Miles Davies is Mies Davies... . All the greats create their own world!... leap about genres and music types and forms and translate into other music forms...... All great music you can turn into a String Quartet.
These days I say some bands are just special..... Queen are one and they are themselves.... it does not matter what category so much ... great music is great music... I am more guilty than most as my brain much like Brad is always thinking what genre is this?...... But really Queen are a great example of someone who is just Queen as they overlap so many genres ... and make so many gems of songs in different genres its just great to see! t just comes out of them... but there is always something very Queen about every song. That is greatness in my opinion. They are not even my favourite band. But they are in the list of all time special bands! And entertainers.
So many great memories to this song dancing at random on chairs at parties and driving ........... just a happy song! : )) And what an into and fade ... Just class and a feel good factor vive. You know Freddie has everyone from Funkadelic to James Brown to Led Zep and Bowie and a large number of classical albums in his record collection and probably a Southern Baptist Choir album as well as Opera albums. Happy viewing Lex and Brad ... enjoying your show from Cotswolds, England.... Great to see we all have so many of the same thoughts and reactions. I cannot agree more with a lot of Lex's saying about Pink Floyd as well.... very insightful I thought. I even leaned a few things. It is also great to see how great music just translates to all.... whether it is James Brown, Kanye or The Smiths, GnR or Prince or Parliament or Charlie Parker or Mozart..... Music unifies us all as human beings..........England , US and round the whole world..... in Soviet Russia ... they could not get enough Western Music smuggled through...in the 60's and 70's and 80's .... Enjoying your channel on a boring raining Sunday night in England! : )) Worked hard all day... and just having a break and some harmless fun : ))
is this a subgenre of rock?
Yep. A subgenre of his own called Queen!
He was having a good time and he didn't want anyone to stop him. It really is that simple. Sometimes there's no need to dig. If you want a Queen song with a message/story try The Show Must Go On or Innuendo.
And Freddie had said himself that usually the lyrics don't mean anything. Its up to the listener to interpret them.
Though I think BR is about Freddie and his struggle with his sexuality, it can really be about almost anything. From literal murder, to someone breaking out of the mold they were raised in and becoming someone new.
He is rolling... up. Full of happiness and up beat in life..
Lex you are the physical embodiment of this song. You are so bubbly and full of personality
Couple of corrections/additions from your live stream last night:
Roger did start out studying to be a dentist but graduated with a degree in Biology.
Freddie was engaged to Mary Austin and she was his only true friend his whole life.
Freddie had 4 extra molars & that’s why he didn’t want to fix his teeth as he was sure it would change the structure of his palate.
Queen was definitely a rock band, but they played songs from all different genres. All 4 members wrote #1 hits, all could play multiple instruments, and all are in the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Queen is one of the most versatile bands, best guitar solos, most creative (broke the norms) and a true gift to everyone's ears.
I once had a conversation with some coworkers about what band has the best guitar solos and everyone looked me like I was crazy when I said queen. Which was followed by "don't they only have one major hit?" 🤦🏼♂️. After listing ALL of them they were all shocked at how many great songs came from this band.
Yes, Brian did many amazing solos in many styles!!!! I love all of them!!!!! :-) You are well done that you teached some people! I°m happy about it!!! :-)
It is the happiest song ever composed. Thank you very much Freddie Mercury, John Deacon, Brian May and Roger Taylor for giving me great moments of happiness throughout my life.
Queen is special. So many sounds. One of the GOATS. I MISS FREDDIE 😢💗✝
Nobody in our lifetime will ever be as great as Freddie Mercury.
actually i can name few, but it would be kinda subjective so that doesn't count I guess.
Nobody in ANY lifetime will ever be as great as Freddie Mercury!
@@ninja_tony besides those who lived to see Freddie himself
Love how Brad gets a kick out of Lex's comments/thoughts.
Probably clasify as classic rock. Due to his almost operatic performances, piano etc. Any way you want.... they will go down in history as one of the greatest bands ever.
Get your minds of the street, not everything is about drugs. Queen and Freddie Mercury were on top of the world. Just listen to the lyrics, “don’t stop me know I’m having such a good time I’m having a ball”, “ I’m a shooting star”, “I am a rocket ship“. It is possible for people to write a song about having a good time, having fun.
I really hope you'll check out Queen's "The Show Must Go On". It was written by guitarist Brian May, to chronicle Freddie's struggle with aids. The vocals Mercury achieves in that song, while sick, are amazing.
Brian composed most of it but he was writting it with freddie but finished it off as Freddie was ill
It’s a song meant to have a blast to! It’s not about drugs. It’s about making the best time wherever you are. It’s impossible to not feel like you can do anything and feel great when you hear this song.
Being born in 1964 made me really see the best of 70's Performances and 80's studio perfection.
I'm a late 40s expat living in an African island with all these songs who I get to expose my friends to these old classic rock songs. Its great fun.
The end still sends chills down my back after all these years. Freddy is god forever
Queen are so different. They are epic.
Do live stuff and you'll see how different they are again live!
In fact in many peoples opinion Queen are even better live. And the best live band of all time.
Go live you won't regret it.
I totally agree. I've turned tons of people onto Queen by playing LIVE stuff for them to experience. They are always blown away.
What a smart woman!!! So musically intelligent!
I love Lex so much in this. FEEL IT, IT"S SO FUN.
The empowering song shows Freddie feeling unstoppable: "floating around in ecstasy," "like a tiger defying the laws of gravity," and "traveling at the speed of light."
It shows how Freddie threw caution to the wind, putting himself in danger: "I am a satellite, I'm out of control" and "I am a sex machine ready to reload".
After Freddie died of AIDS-related causes in 1991, Brian May told Mojo that he struggled with the lyrics, as it was about a difficult time in Freddie's life, when he was "taking lots of drugs and having sex with lots of men."
Brian May later said: "I thought it was a lot of fun, but I did have an undercurrent feeling of, 'aren't we talking about danger here,' because we were worried about Freddie at this point.
*Quoted from Smooth Radio
You definitely have to check Innuendo. It is one of the last Queen songs. The lyrics are very deep!
"Is this rock?" It's rock opera and it's beautiful!
"Dude can really sing"
The best ever to do so.
This song is everything. Makes me dance all over my house. Rock opera.
Brad and Lex, this is definitely rock. Rock covers a wide variety of songs.
Notice how he sings while playing the piano (standing up). Skill level: Master
They really need to hear " Crazy Little Thing Called Love".
RELEASED as a single in Nov of 1979 ...... LOVE the 70s
This song is definitely pop rock. Genres used to be much less narrow. In the last 20 years , there has been a "narrowing" of sound and difference in music - in radio music anyway. There have been several mathematical studies on this.
@Phantom Freeze It doesn't have a church time signature. Plus , you could say the same about a lot of Al Green's stuff , or a lot of the 70s soul music. It was still the pop music of that era.
This was somewhat of tribute to Little Richard. Early rock 'n roll had loads of piano.
No, it°s not a pop rock song at all!!!! It°s like a rock°n°roll song dominated with the piano!!!! It°s a very dynamic and rythmic with the soul/gospel type intro and outro and harmonic chorus, bass and drums!!!!! Amazing song!!!!!
@@nesimusic9153 At that time , "pop" was not a word people used as an insult to mean shallow. Don't get so worked up.
This is known as the happy song. And that it is!!
It's a straight forward song about having a good time.
Freddy knew how to bring the crowed up to a point they never been and return them gracefully to where they started. RIP
Such a fun song
Just watching lex smile and dance just made me smile knowing she got how this song just makes you happy
They always said Queen isn’t one thing, it’s whatever they wanted it to be! All those guys were so smart and creative!
This is Rock Opera at it's best!
I have to admit that I watched this three times over 4 days just because it put me in such a good mood. The song is incredible and I have loved it over the years, but couple that with Lex's excitement was just addicting. I like watching your reactions especially when it is a song that brings out the inner child in Lex and shows how excited she gets over the energy from the song. Lex has an amazing energy that is fun to watch.
The song is about Freddie living life. Sex, partying in general, etc. Drugs were included in that sometimes, sure, but it's not just about that. Freddie was a wild one and no one could tell him what to do pretty much. ❤
They all were party animals, mainly Roger. Normal rock and roll life in this era
@@Danielik25 I know, but since it was Freddie who wrote the song I was talking specifically about him in this case. Brian has said that he didn't even care much for the song for quite some time because he felt like it was the beginning of losing Freddie to that lifestyle.
@@sannaolsson9106
Thats sonerhing he started saying in 2011
He said lots of times he didnt like it being piano based with barely any guitar
In the 90s he said he was worried theyd loose fans esp America if they realised he was gay which he thinks was the reason after hot space
He said he had a go at Freddie for having songs on the gay side
He probably feels awkward saying that now
He left David of 3 years for joe in 78
He had been introduced to ny clubs but not really involved until 80s
Wasn't living a hedonistic lifestyle as such 78 when he wrote this
@@bluebell3720 OK yeah that sounds pretty problematic, but I honestly don't think that's how he wanted it to come across. I think he was just sad still about Freddie passing. He has said he rehrets that they didn't take better care if him(I highly doubt they could've reeled him in lol) and in hindsight he connects that song to it.
@@sannaolsson9106
it would have made more sense to me if he had said things like that at the time but he only said it from 2011 and stopped saying it was because he had issues with it having gay overtones
he said at the time he didnt like it but didnt give a reason thats why he was asked about it afterwards
he didnt like it having less guitar and implying sexuality he was worried about it effecting the band
there wasnt any reason for him to be concerned about him in 78 he went to clubs the same as Roger did
but he left a 3 year relationship for joe
it was more during hot space when they were ott about it sounding like gay club music and fighting a lot over it he partied more
I love queen...back in that time queen was even on black radio stations..we will rock you ...that song did it.
Ya'll gotta do "it's late" the most underrated, BEST queen song ever! Total Banger
I always called Queen music "Rock Opera".
Another one bites the dust?
You take my breath away?
Cool cat?
Seaside rendezvous?
Can't just say rock opera,although some of the songs were.
If you want a pretty song try Save me Live from Montreal 1981. It's It's beautiful song and the fact that it's a live recording will blow your mind. Thanks for another wonderful reaction!
thats what makes queen great is that quire sound at the right moments. it makes the song have volume.
Queen is like theater, always different but setting a mood and telling a story at the same time.
"Queen is so different".... yes! it's Queen: Pop, Rock Heavy Hard, Trash, Blues, opera, etc, etc, etc etc, Queen it's THE MUSIC.
Let's have more reactions to "Queen"! I highly recommend the song "The Show Must Go On"
I love Lexs reaction. Its Awesome i Love it!!! She can feel the music. It goes through her you can tell.
It's a Rock and Roll song, guys. Rock comes in many forms. Disco, R&B, Techno, Hip Hop, Pop, Funk and Punk, are all subgenres of Rock and Roll. Rock and Roll can include elements of jazz, country and classical. It can be funky and it can be grungy. Rock is the most diverse form of music the world has known. Rock is not just guitars, drums, bass and keyboards. If you don't get that, you'll be forever asking if groups like Queen, Supertramp, Talking Heads. Pink Floyd and Steely Dan are rock. Yes, they are. From Elvis, Chuck Berry, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, to Metallica and Nirvana, it's all Rock and Roll. Try reacting to Billy Joel's, "It's Still Rock and Roll to Me", and you'll get the picture.
GREAT WORK AS ALWAYS
KEEP THEM COMING
DOUBLE CROWN FOR YOU
BOTTOMS UP 🥃🥃👹👹
Great reaction! This song is somewhat of a throwback or somewhat of a tribute to Little Richard. Early rock 'n roll had a lot of piano. Check out I Want It All or Innuendo for some harder rock and progressive rock/metal from Queen. Queen did any genre of music, that is why they can be confusing. From 1920's songs to trash metal and motown.
Now that you mention it, I _can_ hear the Little Richard influence. Thanks!
to their intros are like in literature they pressent the caracter and the u get it full blast the emotion the character of that particularly short i im so in love withe they way they pressent every tune they have done
This girl's totally getting it...the ochestral sound...the operatic background vocals.
Please reaction to "The Miracle" the video is very nice. Greetings from Mexico.
YESSSS - Very clever & adorable video!
How have you not already heard this?? Wtf 😂
I grew up on Queen & rock & roll in general and I never heard this song until the movie came out a few years back……Big single in the UK I guess but not here in US as far as I know 🤷🏻♂️
@@charlesfitzgerald9631 Ah that must be why then! If you grew up in the UK you’d be hearing it at every school disco, bbq’s, events, tv shows and so on… it’s like a proper anthem 😂
@@charlesfitzgerald9631
Its been in a few films etc
He’s having a good time and asking not to have his fun interrupted.. Dobt stop me now … not NOW !! 👍🏴
You will not have heard Freddie until you hear "Barcelona" is a single released by Queen vocalist Freddie Mercury and operatic soprano Montserrat Caballé.
You need to check out "Dragon Attack" by Queen. It's never covered but I think it's one of their best songs.
Metal band called Testament covered it
Awesometastic ✌🏻🙂
Lex nailed it with harmonys! That was part of their wall of sound! A Rock Group with complete sound , my favourite group and saw them in Toronto in 1981.
Man didn't know they ever played in Toronto. Thats pretty cool
HE IS HAVING A GOOD TIME IN LIFE. AND DOESNT WANT TO STOP
I love the sincerity of your reactions. You guys are really considering and weighing the craft and the art, and I respect that. However, in this case, I am not sure I agree with the idea that it is a song about drugs. Seems to me that it is about the way Freddy Mercury lived in general. He was like a comet, on fire and burning through the sky and not about to be stopped or slowed down for anyone. His loss was and is a tragedy, of course, but it is almost like he was predicting it with the brightness of his genius. He is dearly missed.
Yeah, it's almost certainly not about drugs. I always imagined it's all about being high on life, being filled with so much optimistic energy that nothing can bring you down.
Every older rock song - Brad: “Are they talking about doing drugs?”
The Bass guitarist was looking very Rock 'n' Roll wearing a tank top!!!!
It's rock n roll my babies, pure and simple.
If you want a queen love song. Do "SAVE ME" .
One of my favourites, ever heard it live at Montreal?
It's great to see people waking up to real music by real musicians and not the dross that's around now with auto tune etc ,(which can make a donkey sound good)
I was actually privileged to have seen Queen live in 1983. Freddie came out with a sceptre and a crown and a purple cloak on. He threw roses out to the audience. Then they proceeded to put on one of the best concerts I've ever seen.
All catchy songs, thats why they are played in stadiums and films etc all over the world still.
This is 100% Rock & Roll in the tradition of Little Richard in the 1950's.
guys don't get so hung up on the genre. there are broad genres (rock, rap, hip hop,, blues, country, etc) but good music is just good music. and Queen is almost their own genre, like Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin. love your reactions!
this is my favorite Freddie vocal. that's saying something.
I soooooo miss Freddie. God rest his soul. He was one of a kind. They all had exceptional qualities and they came together, as queen and became the world's perfect band. There will never be another queen. ❤❤❤❤
