John Deacon quit the iconic rock band Queen after Freddie Mercury died - this left just Roger Taylor and Brian May in the band. But why did John leave Queen #queenband #queen #freddiemercury
I agree with Deacon. When Freddie died, it was over. Queen was over. Nobody could replace Freddie, and nobody could replace John. Thats the fact!! The two left members, Roger and Brian, could have used the name FORMER Queen and this and this singer. Deacon had this right all the time!
A truly insanely professional band , I use to get into fights as a kid , cause was into Rock-A-billy, punkrock And queen , Now 😳 every one finally noticed 💡
I agree with John Deacon and your observations. Queen were instantly over when Freddie passed. Paul Rodgers I think he has a perfect voice for blues based rock. His success with Free and Bad Company has more than proved this. However, his tenure at Queen was almost cringe. Rodgers lacked Mercury's top end vocal range and was too shy to live up to Freddies stage performance! Led Zeppelin I agree with Robert Plant on not wanting to reform Zeppelin and play as a three piece. Plant was honest when on an Australian 60 Minute 2012 segment said, "we'd' only be a cover band without Bonzo."
Listen, when you've been to the mountaintop and seen just about everything that there is to see from there, I mean the man left at the right time, when they were at their peak. The band's hold on the crowd with their Live Aid performance was fascinating.to see and to listen to.There'll never be another band quite like Queen. Deacon exited stage right at the correct time and for the right reasons. Hold him up to praise him but also to respect where he was coming from, a paragon of rock.
John Deacon came up with some of the most iconic bass lines in rock history. "another one bites the dust". "under pressure". etc etc etc. live your life John. and thanks.
Lets leave him alone.... he's helped bring joy to millions of Queen fans...his bass playing and the songs he's written....all the best Deacy.... thanks for everything
This lad made great music with queen, but all things must end, and people should just leave him alone and respect his privacy ,as for Mr. Deacon thanks for the music and thanks for the memories brother….. keep on rocking
I just wanted to say that John Deacon wrote..... Another one bites the dust ..... Your my best friend ....I want to break free and many more great songs . Just in case some people thought he was only the bass player . Underated legend .
It makes me very sad, and I wish people would leave John Deacon alone and he left Queen for a good reason because he will miss his best friend Freddie Mercury for years to come .
Nothing wrong with being true to his word, and there's no need to feel sorry for him, he's a multi millionaire he just chooses to live quietly out of the public eye. Good for him 👍
go and see a queen + adam lambert show then you get an opinion. I understand no one can replace Freddie but he’s keeping the music alive for a new generation
@@danfoss1535 I understand that filling the shoes of Freddie is impossible. But Adam is an incredible singer and in any other situation people would say that. However due to him singing with queen (who are such a talented band) he will never be some fans cup of tea. However we should trust Brian and Roger as they have chosen him to bring Queens unique music and message to another generation and we should be so grateful for that.
Also because his father died when he was young and he was still recovering from his death until Fred died he just simply couldn’t take it anymore. People need to leave deaky alone. Stop taking pictures of him and crowding him.
Hey we all get old. Even when i was young i always respected everybody older than me. I wasn't just taught that either, it felt natural to me to show respect toward others who had been here longer.
Please leave John alone and respect his privacy he wanted a private life for a reason to get away from the public eye, Please respect the man’s privacy.
Yes leave him alone. But this legacy crap people talk about. Those songs deserve to live and be performed in concert. It’s a tribute to Freddie that his songs are stilled played live.
If i was him, given the choice between a nursing home, and playing Las Vegas with Adam Lambert, i would rather endure the nursing home! Now if they got Marc Martel, I would reconsider!
He's been happily married to the same woman almost 50 years, six kids with her, worth $170+ million, wrote what is probably Queen's most profitable hit, Another One Bites the Dust. Dude's living the dream. Basically, got to be a rock star for 20 years and then retire as a multi-millionaire in domestic bliss.
Adam lambert isnt fake queen, but its not the same. If adam is good enough for brian and roger, im not going to diss it. But im not into it. And im a diehard queen fan.
For God's sake he was the bass player for Queen. They could have picked a 70 year old bass player back then and not missed a beat. He's the bass player for Queen! That's like the third string place kicker on a football team.
Then who would have wrote Another One Bites The Dust, You're My Best Friend, Under Pressure, I Want To Break Free, etc, etc? You undervalued a great musician in your maladroit attempt...
@@bentonquest4184 They would have done a lot of people a favor if they wouldn't have recorded those songs anyway. Sheer heart attack was the only album for real rockers. Queen was extremely overrated, but everyone has their own opinion regardless of how lame it may ultimately be.
They are just carrying on the legacy of Queen now, and I love it. Adam Lambert says every night that he is not Freddie, and he’s not trying to be. He’s just paying tribute to Freddie and the music. If you don’t like it, who cares? Don’t listen.
John Deacon is the embodiment of a friend loyal to the end.

A man of integrity . Rare these days.

Keep on rocking? W here? In a rocking chair?

I love John Deacon and Freddie. All of them really
Great musician and loyal to Freddie .and his art!!
Full respect to john!!
It makes me very sad, and I wish people would leave John Deacon alone and he left Queen for a good reason because he will miss his best friend Freddie Mercury for years to come .
Respect John Deacon. You did the right thing. 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
He also wrote their bestselling single. He was a secret weapon in that band.
Leave him alone...
It never was the same again.... I've never listened to a thing Queen have done since Mercury died.
Most under rated
Bassist of all time .
❤
Nothing wrong with being true to his word, and there's no need to feel sorry for him, he's a multi millionaire he just chooses to live quietly out of the public eye. Good for him 👍
And yet this person decided to post a recent pic of John while KNOWING he wanted to be private
As someone who has met John Deacon recently I can say he is doing very well xx
Nobody in the world can replace freddy
or even FREDDIE, no Y 👑✊🇬🇧
If I saw him in person I would simply say thanks for the music and enjoy your time with your loved ones. And be on my way
That says it all. Lambert is as fake as hell. Love you John. ❤
go and see a queen + adam lambert show then you get an opinion. I understand no one can replace Freddie but he’s keeping the music alive for a new generation
@@Adz_maybe he's singing it for a younger generation, but it's not Queen and ADAM SUCKS! Not in a complimentary way

😢😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭john❤❤❤
He’s a very intelligent man, that John Deacon is💰
Imagine being able to say yeah I played bass in QUEEN. He doesn’t owe anyone an explanation. Go JD
No one beats father time
Also because his father died when he was young and he was still recovering from his death until Fred died he just simply couldn’t take it anymore. People need to leave deaky alone. Stop taking pictures of him and crowding him.
Leave John Deacon alone.He was grieving😢❤you John Deacon.The Show must Go On... Nobody Live's Forever.Freddie was Gods messenger of ❤
Hey we all get old.
Even when i was young i always respected everybody older than me. I wasn't just taught that either, it felt natural to me to show respect toward others who had been here longer.
He was right. There is no Queen without Freddie.
True loyalty to Freddie Mercury. 🎉
Deacon quit when the band died. Legend
Please leave John alone and respect his privacy he wanted a private life for a reason to get away from the public eye,
Please respect the man’s privacy.
Deacon was heartbroken and still is❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No one can be Freddie but Paul Rogers is a Legend.
Legend. Let him be.
And people should leave him alone. Deacon knew that Queen doesn't exists without Freddie. He is right!
I always wanted to know more about him after he left.
He looks like my uncle John Finch, who is also from England.
Yes leave him alone. But this legacy crap people talk about. Those songs deserve to live and be performed in concert. It’s a tribute to Freddie that his songs are stilled played live.
If i was him, given the choice between a nursing home, and playing Las Vegas with Adam Lambert, i would rather endure the nursing home! Now if they got Marc Martel, I would reconsider!
He’s not in seclusion, he’s living happily with his wife and family and goes out to run errands just like everyone else.
He's been happily married to the same woman almost 50 years, six kids with her, worth $170+ million, wrote what is probably Queen's most profitable hit, Another One Bites the Dust. Dude's living the dream. Basically, got to be a rock star for 20 years and then retire as a multi-millionaire in domestic bliss.
One of the best and most creative bass player in the world. This is what playing bass should be
Not all musicians need or want the fame and clowds. They love music
People need to respect his privacy
To quote the Beatles let it be. If it doesn’t come directly from Brian or Roger, leave deaky be
Paul Rodgers did a great job singing with Queen. He added machismo to We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions.
Deacon was right. They never replaced Freddy. May and Taylor should not have continued under the name Queen. It could have been Queen 2 or something.
Freddie died and queen died the same day. Their is no queen with out the orig 4.
He is the youngest but look very old. Keep staying in the Band makes far younger.
who cares if he looks very old everybody gets old
GREAT Bass player!!Cliche I know,but he is also Underrated.
Everyone gets old so give him a break just like people will give us
Sad wooooooow
Джон, был , есть и будет легендой , и если кто то скажет , что его вклад в группу, мало заметен , значит это говорит глупый человек 👴
He was right
In my opinion George Michael was the best replice Freddy Mercy my opinion
The rest of the queen members definitely did not tarnish their Legacy by continuing to play.. Just for the record!!!
Hello, they're all old men now.
Adam Lambert 😂😂😂who , discusting joke of the day🤮.
GRANDE MUSICO E PESSOA
I feel like Led Zeppelin knew that they shouldn’t go on without one of their members, I feel that Brian and Roger should have done the same.
Adam Labert? LMAO. Mercury must be turning in his grave.
Too bad he couldn’t convince Brian to quit at the same time
Right
The same as Led Zeppelin without John Bonham !!!
IT'S Integrity
I love Paul's voice . He is not Freedie but good. Adam is trying to be Freedie
Yeah Right!!!
So I agree with all of it except the Adam Lambert... He has never tried to replace Freddie
People need to stop saying that crap
Mans right Lamberts trash😂
He gave up Queen but the cigs my man!!!
Radio goo goo Radio gah gah😂😂😂😂😂😂 id quit too
I cannot stand Adam and Queen 3.0.
Dlatego nie wyobrażam sobie Freddie'go dzisiaj.
Please cover his face on his recent photo, he just wants a private life
Don’t tell me what to do
Adam lambert isnt fake queen, but its not the same. If adam is good enough for brian and roger, im not going to diss it. But im not into it. And im a diehard queen fan.
