    One of my favorite things about this video is how Bowie is such a humble star. Annie Lennox obviously doing the Mercury parts shows off her vocal range and big performance. Bowie easily could’ve been the focus if he wanted to be. Instead he lets her command the stage and plays his role in the song perfectly being stoic and almost muted to her performance. Total perfection. He is so sorely missed.

    This is the definition of smashing it....hearing the crowd screaming Freddie's bits is so amazing it had an immediate effect on both Bowie and Annie....and Annie's outfit/makeup/character - most don't know this but she was portraying death and the disease that took Freddie and the battle he fought.....Her silver top represents armor he needed to fight physically and mentally what he endured from the disease and media and the black was death and the AIDS virus.....they are both singing one man's song. Bowie represents Freddie's life and Annie is death and disease and at the end they become one just as the disease took over Freddie, singing "this is our last dance and this is ourselves, under pressure." an emotional way of portraying Freddie's last days when living with media rumors of his sexuality and health and finally admitting defeat to the disease that took his life. A beautiful expression of a wonderful entertainer that we will all miss....bravo

Its a compeltely different way people can get and view music. If the tv only has 3 channels then all the channels will have "big" shows. Now you got 15,609,900 channels. Course they all cant be as big as the original 3. I love old music. more than modern music but i find bowie to be almost nails on a chalk board.

The origin was believed to be due to a punch from a friend during a fight BUT it is still a MEDICAL CONDITION due to trauma to the eye that affects the muscles which allow the pupil to dilate and contract. A superficial scratch would cause a corneal abrasion which will heal. This was more severe. Because one pupil is permanently dilated, his left eye appears darker than the right making one eye look blue and one darker. Don't argue with a nurse or you'll lose. :)

    The shot of John Deacon from 0:47 to 0:52 is one of my favourite moments from live music. On a stage filled by 5 legends it would be easy to be overshadowed. Especially by the huge on-stage presences of Bowie, Lennox, May and Taylor. It's a wonderful 5 seconds of footage as Deacon sways to the rhythm in an old pair of jeans and a t-shirt, smiling reminiscently as he mesmerises the crowd with arguably the most recognised bassline of all time.
    In discussions of 'rock greats' Deacon can be easily overlooked due to his quiet persona. I personally view him as one the greatest bassists of all time. He's also my personal favourite, just pipping John Entwistle for first place.

      In respect to replacing Freddie.
      You are right yet instead of replacing, this preforming, is honoring him and his talent.
      I would suggest that the prospect of letting an artists music die with his own death if proposed, this would be every artist nightmare.
      To continue preforming their work is in fact saying the music was and will always be special, its worth it.
      And my god, Freddie Mercury sure was special so I hope thousands of people take on his songs.
      (Noting that this song was preformed & written by Bowie, Mercury and the rest of Queen.)
