    I love that the crowd was so noisy at the beginning he tells them they have to listen. By the end you could hear a pin drop, then loud applause. Truly a master at work!!

      Absolutely, Valerie. There were 200,000 people in that crowd which makes it all the more mind-blowing. 'Anything you ask, I'll do for you' comes to mind.

    Voice of an angel. Time has only made his death all the more tragic, yet we are blessed to have been born in a time that enables us to experience such other worldly talent. My God it just sends chills down your spine. It's almost hard to listen to, it just hits you right in the soul.

    They are actually amazing and their body of work is timeless.
    Freddie's voice is beyond beauty. Brian's guitar work is superb.
    Roger's drums are solid. John carries it with the bass. Still sounds
    fresh today.
    With a powerful voice and charismatic presence,
    stands out as the greatest frontman in Rock and Roll history. Once he
    stepped on the stage, the audience knew that they were a part of
    something special. Having over a four-octave vocal range coupled with a
    flamboyant personality, Mercury kept his concerts alive every second.

    I'm English and it's the first time i've heard that song also. Freddy had a voice that touched the soul somehow. He's greatly missed. He loved opera too. He did a duet with the opera singer, Montserrat Cabelle. "How can I go on". You should check out the video. Amazing.

The world’s population wishes Freddie had sung this song to them. The studio version is filled with beautiful harmonies! Like Freddie said in this performance “it hadn’t been recorded yet …”.🌿💗🌿🌸🌿💗

    I JUST WISH... that there were MUCH MUCH MORE video footage available of Freddie's piano playing... His musical contemporaries said that they had never seen anyone else play the piano in the same manner that he did, except for Liberace.

      I have to disagree with you on this, imo as amazing as the harmonies are on the studio version, they detract from the pure emotion of the live version. I much prefer the Live over the studio on this one.
