Alright so now that it's the 2nd, I just wanna say, this was in fact an April's Fools thing, I have heard this song many many times before. There's been a bit of a trend of people reacting to this song the past 6 months or so and while I absolutely believe that it's possible to have not heard the song and I trust that most of these people are in fact telling the truth, there are definitely a few fakers in the bunch so I wanted to poke a bit of fun at that lot. As well as the channels that add nothing at all to the music and just sit there and say dumb shit like 'wow, how did they do that? That's crazy' etc etc.
Hence some of the extremely over exaggerated comments I made in this video!
I do love a bit of Queen, I actually watched Bohemian Rhapsody on the weekend (The Film) and it was extremely good, just wanted to have a bit of April 1st fun! Normal service resumes tomorrow, hopefully I didn't make anyone too mad haha.
for about two seconds I was confused. Could not help but wonder how you could have possibly never heard this before. and then the date kicked in. good april fools joke.
Actually I found it pretty suspicious that you immediately start to nod your head to the beat at 4:51 like you know what's coming. :)
"unexpected changes", right? ^^
haha yeah, I actually was trying not to head nod or anything of that nature throughout but I just couldn't help myself at that bit lol
Anyone who somehow does not know Queen would be in for quite An amazing experience of discovery! You fooled me!
Lol! Thank goodness. I was willing to accept MAYBE you'd never heard the song, but when i heard "I'm surprised he's not bigger..." I choked on my Dr.Pepper....
Good prank but you didn't get me. Being English and not knowing Queen simply was just NOT POSSIBLE!!!!
Manuela Marconi The same thought came in my mind too 😁.
Manuela Marconi lol that’s what I was thinking
Generally speaking, youngsters all over the world have no culture. Lack of transmission
Sorry. Didn't see it was april fools
English? LOL everyone who listens to music knows this song.
Sweety, this song was released n the 70's! Way be u were born! U really need to discover more Queen! They were and still are iconic!
Looks like everyone in the comments forgot to check the date today.
Well, Queen should be national history for him. I guess^^
He should at least know their masterpiece. He should have heard of it.
@@bobabier5394 that's the point, I have heard it :)
Or they didn't watch until the end of the video
Bigger??? They are one of the greatest bands of all time. Freddy is considered by Rolling Stone magazine as the greatest singer of all time
I know, that was just part of the joke, read the pinned comment :)
Fred is bigger and better ... in everything! ;-) *quote
Rolling stone hates FreddIE!
They did put him on place 17 or something
Freddie**
James Carlson YESSS Freddie mercury is the best male singer of all time and by far the best front man! In America, people fight about it but I still say that Michael Jackson is one of the best of the best vocalist and performers just as Freddie Mercury was to Great Britain. My sister argues with me and says that Prince was the greatest. Prince was good but he was a bit of an ass and he would tell people that they were gonna wear this and that or they were fired. Michael Jackson was so kind to people and generous just as Freddie Mercury and you don’t have to be a turd to get the point across.
The first time I heard Bohemian Rhapsody was when I was 6 years old in 1975 growing up in North Wembley, London, England. I loved it back then, and I will love it till the day I die (hopefully many, many decades from now). Everyone should hear Bohemian Rhapsody once before they die.
I was 12 back then and loved the same. Still do. And these reactions are a good way to put over songs missed by different generations. But he should have known. Everywhere I went in 75 it was saying in shops and cars
No auto tune, no computers, no four letter words, just QUEEN!!
I love the look on Young people face when they hear this song for the first time 🤣. We were rocking in the 70s
"I wonder why he's not bigger" He's a LEGEND! You've been living in a bubble! :)
I know, it was a joke! Read the pinned comment, this was just an April's fools joke :)
@@Yetiness thank god :)
He is Lost...poor boy !
When he says that he's killed a man I think he refers to himself ( an old Freddie, a new Freddie )
Daenerys Targaryen I think he transformed himself into a new version of Freddie Mercury.
You hit it. The recording industry is so evil. Many of his lyrics depict his frustration with them. He could not be his full self. Some think he is in protective custody with many other "dead" celebs. They will be resurfacing soon.
This young man has the look of someone who has never seen his club lift a trophy.
To see you react to this song is priceless. You are watching a master piece, the first and only time that Rock and Opera was mixed. You are so young, this is a gift for you. Enjoy.
Haha 100% genuine April Fools reaction nod nod wink wink knowhatimean say no more!
Bahaha! You had me on this one! I just saw how young you looked & I thought, well I guess it’s possible but there were two things that made me wonder & that’s why I came straight to the comments, first was when you said “ oh, and their British!” and the second was when you started banging your head a little right when the song switches to rock, you weren’t thrown by that at all & your head started moving a little soon! Lol 😂 Great April’s fool joke though! You need to do a review on Dimash Kudaibergen “SOS” or “Sinful Passion”! If you don’t mind gaining several thousand more followers bc Dimash fans are wild! If you’ve already heard him before then u know he’s considered the greatest vocalist in the world and if for some reason you haven’t heard of him then definitely treat yourself with all the Dimash u can find because he is out of this world talented & has fans all over the world!
I hope it wasn't an April's Fools joke. Love reactions from young folk as yourself. You have a whole world behind and in front of you, really I love your silly reactions and comments. Keeping it real is just why I watch people's reactions. Don't need to apologize for anything.
Thanks - you made my day !!!
"Not sure if the 'R' is silent"... Haha. The lack of insight and commentary gave this one away!
Haha you got me! I noticed that in some of the other reactions, there were people acting like the words 'Bohemian Rhapsody' were some foreign langauage they'd never seen before in their life so I thought I'd take a little dig there. Plus, I didn't want too many people to believe this was actually real and get mad at me, wanted to overexaggerate a little in places!
This song came out in 1975. And Queen was what I listened to back in the day. Yes, I am old enough to be your Grandmother. lol Oueen's music was just magic. Every time I hear this song I appreciate it more than I did before. Every one of their songs has that magic and are still beloved even to this day.
I had to play it back twice! Did you say you're surprised it isn't bigger? OH! IT IS 🤣 WELL, You've got great taste in music!
I did say that but don't worry, it was just a joke, this video was for April fool's so everything was said in jest! :)
Who is this band? I never heard about them because I lived in a cave on another planet.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
The greatest songwriter ever.I Think you know "We are the champions"every year in every sportstations.Thats also from Queen.And so much other Songs.And all are great
When you listen to bohemian rhapsody for the first time and says this reminds me of that movie bohemian rhapsody BRUHHH
You are so insightful for being so young. I love your accent!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I knew you were kidding, before I read your comment…
Well done 👍❤️👍🦋🦋🦋
I love eatching these kids discover Queen. Bohemian Rhapsody is my favorite song and Queen is my favorite band. I'm jealous that they are seeing Freddie for the first time. It never gets old.
Dude, your head is already bobbing to the beat at the start of the first verse. You can’t tell me you haven’t ever heard of QUEEN!!! One just has to look at the admiration on your face for this phenomenal band. You definitely know who they are just by your actions.
Relieved to hear it was an April fool's joke cuz I wondered if you had been living under a rock! (smile) They are the greatest and most talented group ever.
they made this song in 1975 , i was 15 years old at the time, fell in love with them right away
I like very much, that you are listening and not stop every minute for hearing your own voice!
Lol! Somehow, I knew you were joking before looking at the description. XD Must be your accent. XD
Very good. Next year you should do "Went to London for the first and you won't believe it but all the buses are red"
Oh man i was about to hate on u till i saw the date 😂😂 Good shit man!
Good prank, you almost got me lol. React to Joni Mitchell's Help me" and "Big Yellow Taxi"
Watching this on April 9th. Glad you put in it was a joke. I was worried about England if a young man from there had never heard of this band.
Love it when you say your supprised that this isn’t bigger lol
This is one of the best i songs in the world
I know don't worry, as the pinned comment explains, it was just an April's fools! :)
Yetiness ohhh lols
The Musical Authority says: "Listen " Bohemian Rhapsody " can change your Life forever"
Queen listen to them and love there music shoot 1970s was a awesome decade and Freddie Mercury voice and singing is irreplaceable no one can take his place.
React to Queen - Somebody to love Montreal 1981 or Queen Take my breah away live or Queen - i want it all
agree!
I just subscribed!! You can't go wrong with QUEEN
That was my generation...and I am so glad that I got to be a teen during the generation of the Greatest Rock bands of all time.It was innovation and trailblazing in those days. And Queen were the Epitome of everything that real musical genius could do when applied to Pop/Rock.Truly the Beethovens of Rock, and a Damn hard act to follow that I dont believe has been equaled to this day
Haha very funny! But I enjoy hearing even after all these years.
This was number 1 in the UK singles chart for 9 weeks in 1975. I bought it - I was 15.
Queen is legend!!
Did you know that in reality at the beginning is not all of them only freddie's voice. His voice was even investigates and everything by scientist and realized not only is he one of the best vocalist and best front man but also unique voice. Could do 7 different voices only himself. It's insane
So you’ve seen the Queen biopic, the Motley Crue one was released a couple of weeks ago - definitely worth a look.
This song has had a billion hits on CZcams
“I wonder when this came out?” “Oh, 2008”
No...1975! Probably before your parents were born. I had just finished high school.🤪
Architects // Royal Beggars (Live)
ALSO, Very first part of this song when Freddy is playing the piano and singing solo and then you’ll hear the harmonies come in that is all Freddie Mercury! He would seeing various overdubs of the vocals to harmonize and then he put the tracks together, The band did the same thing with the operatic part except that they had three part harmony overdubbed overdubbed like 14 tracks. Nowadays they can do hundreds of tracks, but that’s because everything is computerized; and if they don’t like a part of the song they can just go onto the computer and edit it. The way they had to make records back in the early days up until the mid to late 1990s is take a little razor and cut out a part of the tape that you don’t want in the song and then tape it back together with scotch tape. It was very difficult and time-consuming on top of fearing that you would totally screw up the record. I have such great respect for these bands that were popular in the 1950’s, 1960s 70s and 80s because that’s how they had to do their music.. more work & more talent!
Sunshine, that was number one in the UK, xmas 1975. No digital then and all achieved using analogue techniques. The records company did not think it would get anywhere because it was too long. But, for some reason, us Brits made it number one :) The 1970s was a great decade of music.
Actually remsstered in 2000s. Original from 1975
HA,HA WE GET IT,,,IF YOU KNOW MUSIC YOU KNOW QUEEN...…
The actual video is from 1975. Freddie Mercury,(best singer of all time according to science, and me 😁) the lead singer very much unfortunately passed away from AIDS in 1991 😭 The drummer, Roger Taylor, and the guitarist, Brian May, are still going but with Adam Lambert as their lead singer now, but they don't do new music as a group, they sing all their old songs. They have alot of hits I'm sure you've heard, like We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions and many more. Please react to Somebody To Love live from Montreal. Amazing performance.
Haha I'm in Australia and I'm thinking nah, all pommy kids are born with this song in their DNA now. He's pulling ya leg.
My good lady, you posit that all British young people are born with this in their DNA, well I give as evidence Hyde Park, London in 2017 (some 25+ years after Freddie's death and some 42 years after the songs release) the lead up to a Green Day concert where, one might suggest, a large number of the 65,000 crowd did not walk the earth at the same time as the aforementioned Mr Mercury czcams.com/video/cZnBNuqqz5g/video.html
@@holbeckmax I rest my case 👍
70s young man...my youth....I admire your ability to keep silent and watch the vid...
They were monsters for 2+ decades
Don't pretend Buddy you haven't heard of this song
Of course I have, read the pinned comment, it's just an April's fools joke :)
@@Yetiness Sorry didn't read that
This guy: April fools son, seriously who hasn’t heard of Queen?!?!
Other youtubers: FIRST TIME HEARING BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY!!!!! Totally not click bait!
The banner behind you explains it all.
Explains what exactly?
Recommend Singer Forestella "Sound of silence" and "Bohemian Rapsody"
This came out in 1975. Lol. You are great over a billion downloads. Greatest band ever.
This song is a classic, one of their best songs. You should react to somebody to love live 1981, Montreal, another one bites the dust., so many more. The singer Freddie Mercury passed away in 1991, in case you didnt know.this came out in 1975. Yes, they are British.
This was just an April's fools thing, I have heard this song before but I do actually appreciate the suggestions here. In all seriousness, I genuinely haven't really seen much of them live so I'm definitely interested in checking some of that out!
Rofl... He's quite a good singer... Surprised he isn't bigger. That was hilarious (esp now knowing this was April Fool's..... Very clever sense of humor you have. 😂)
I hope his statement was an April Fool's prank. Unfortunately, I think he was serious. Freddie Mercury is recognized as one of the greatest singers of all time. We can give him a break because he appears to be a young person.
Yes. That was the whole point of the video. There's a massive paragraph in the pinned comment explaining it and you're replying to a comment from someone who got the joke and yet you're STILL are assuming the opposite? Why just ignore all that to assume the negative? I'll never understand this mindset.
I love Queen 😍
You and me both!
Information relating to Queen. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_(band)
It is thought that the man he killed in the song is his previous self when he came out as being gay.
Just think about this , this was made before digital recording , this was recorded on reel to reel tape , imagine making an album and working on it for over two years before it is ready for release
They are magnificent. Check out Adam Lambert with Queen. He is different, but excellent too. Queen was on top for many years when Freddy Mercury died they took time off. Freddy was there lead singer.
Ya r Brits and ya never ever heard of Queen and this masterpiece?? Shame on ya boy..
My son is only 8 and Queen is his by far his favorite band. He listen to Queen when he was still in crib.
Cheers from Malaysia
I have!! Read the pinned comment or description, this whole video was an April fools joke! :)
3:55 (trying so hard not to laugh) BWAHAHAHA. noice.
You looked shocked when he said he killed a man , but it was a metaphor for changing the person he once was and the person he became ! See Freddy was gay and ashamed, so one day he let the world know him not the person everyone wanted him to be ! Freely was not only for being the lead singer of Queen but he had the best Rock voice ever !!! He passed away in the mid 90's of AIDS but her will never be forgotten !!!
I see your a Tottenham fan. Same her hope they win finals
Yeah, i don’t believe you in your acting 😁
But some of them really think that you don’t know the band 😂😂😂
But i’ll give you a thumbs up 👍 for not singing along though i know there are moments you wanted to 🤣
April fools to them!
Their voices are 4 part harmony. A British band .mega millions of fans ..mercury died in early 1990s from AIDS related complications. This is a rock opera . 3cheers from Canada
Nice one xD
They do that with there voices because they are 1. Awsome 2. Classically trained. 3 Awesome
Could you do that with your spelling?
@@brianwilliams5662 listen this is youtube not a fucking dissertation get the fuck over yourself
amazin'
I thought it was a bit suspicious that you talk with a British accent and you have not heard of Queen. I think you are right that there are so many fakers saying they never heard of Queen and/or Bohemian Rhapsody. I suppose they just do it because it's an interesting song to see people react to the first time.
Freddy Mercury was the a HUGE ICON in 1970's, Likely equal to The beadles. Freddy Mercury died in 1991 due to aids complications.
Yup, head nodding starting exactly at the change made me suspicious. But, I almost spit my coffee across the room when you were wondering why they aren't bigger
Okay so if this is real and you somehow haven't heard of them, lol, this song came out in 1975. It's considered one of the best (and certainly most popular and widely heard) songs of all time, and Freddie Mercury (the lead singer who "can actually sing really well", haha) is widely considered the greatest male rock vocalist ever. He unfortunately passed away in 1991. You've definitely heard their songs: We Will Rock You / We Are the Champions, Another One Bites the Dust, Under Pressure, Somebody to Love, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, I Want to Break Free, I Want It All, Killer Queen... they're still everywhere. :)
I looked at the date and i allready knew
This is the link for ”Bohemian Rhapsody” in the movie ”Wayne’s World”: czcams.com/video/thyJOnasHVE/video.html
Also, Wayne (Mike Myers) in ”Wayne’s World”, played the EMI Records Executive Ray Foster in the movie ”Bohemian Rhapsody”. He played the guy who refused to allow Queen to make their single ”Bohemian Rhapsodyl, and he sure regretted that decision.
Last thing, you will also recognize Mike Myers who was the star in EVERY ”Austin Powers” movie. In those movies he played of course ”Austin Powers”, ”Fat Bastard”, ”Dr. Evil” and ”Goldmember”. He also at one point from 1999-2011 was on ”Saturday Night Live”. Sincerely Original Fat Bottom Girl from Old HB NYC, I'm not Freakin kidding!!!!!
Took me a minute, but yup, April Fools.
Check out "Brighton Rock".
Yep, you got it! And sure, I'll give it a look!
Haha...good one !
Tottenham's temporary pitch was Wembley, where Queen did the best concert, so yeah, this guy knows queen
Yep, know wembley all too well unfortunately :/ Different stadium tbf, live aid was in the old Wembley which I never saw.
yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaah more queeeeeeeeeeeen :-) this song com out 1975
React to David Gilmour High Hopes Live at Royal Albert Hall Will you
lol very funny.. great reaction!
yo. check out TNT Boys singing Freddie Mercury's "Somebody to love" LIVE on a show called Worlds best hosted by Steve Harvey...
Ang you may include TNT Boys singing "Flash light" by Jessie J also live on Wish 107.5 bus while roaming around the city.
I had noticed how people reacted to this and it seemed over the top reaction.
Please react to Korean crossover group Forestella’s Bohemian Rapsody and Son Seung Yeon’s too in Korean Music Show Immortal Songs Queens Special. Thanks.
Surprised he's not biggest!!!!! This is yhe best song ever written. Written by Freddie Mercury 5 years before Queen recorded it. Came out arount 1975!.You weren't even born. It was a GIANT hit. I heard it every morning when my clock went off for months.
I knowwww, it was an April's fools joke, read the pinned comment or description!
@@Yetiness This is April 20th. April Fools jokes have a one day shelf life.
@@celiagorleski2716 What? Yeah but the video was uploaded on April 1st?
@@Yetiness i just figured you were an idiot. Video didn't arrive in Texas til 20 April.
You make me feel old whereas I'm "only" 35 ^^ That was one of the most popular band ever.
Haha, don't worry, this was only an April's fools thing. I've been aware of Queen pretty much since I first had a concept of what music even was, 35 isn't old at all, plenty of life still to go, it's only a number!
I just discovered all these Queen reaction videos. I just thought you guys should know Bohemian Rhapsody is about someone being accused by their girlfriend of crimes against the relationship and after she pronounces the death sentence, his reaction is "So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?" and he leaves the relationship. I'm 62, great college music.
Yeah, I caught that, not right away whenever I first heard this as kid lol but eventually. I believe it's in line with the Islamic references in the song? I could be wrong but I believe that's the punishment for adultery and the likes according to old laws and the words of Muhammad. A lot of little details in this song for sure!
This was first released in 1975.
You should amazing restraint by not interrupting, especially for a young man.... so first time I saw a reaction of yours...and you got a follow
He’s quite a good singer. I’m surprised this wasnt bigger😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Didnt realise it was April 1st - nice one
Watch how the recorded that song..it will give how hard they do to record that..
@Yetiness
Welcome to the world of real music ! Like another viewer with excellent musical taste recommended below, check out Pink Floyd "Comfortably Numb" played live at Pompeii in 2016 (I think). You will be fascinated !
P.S.
I have not only been a Queen fan since 1974, I have been a Spurs supporter since my childhood in the early 1960's !
Quite a good singer.....🤣🤣🤣. I literally LOLd at that. Freddie was the BEST!
It is considered the best rocksong ever written - and Freddie is the best singer ever. Brian is in top 5 of guitarists - and the band is no 1 - - no 2 is Beatles. They are all in songwriters hall of fame - and the group is in a similar for groups. They have a star at Hollywood Boulevard - and several other - - and gold and platinum albums en masse. This summer 2022 their Greatest Hits sold 7 mill. albums - - that is never done in Britain before.- - by the way - I need a little more volume - can you do something about it??
People get confused about when music gets loaded onto the server vs when the song came out. (Many do this - no fault to you on this). This came out in 1975 and Freddie died before the internet was a thing.
