Looking like Michael Jackson ten years before Michael did, lol. They were working with a fashion Stylist (forgot her name) , but of course Freddie had a degree in Design and fashion drawing. And they were SO HANDSOME!
Thank you for taking my request. This song amazed me the first time I heard it because of Freddie's elocution...he could sing so fast yet every word was clear and precise. And he never "just sang"...he performed every song. You were correct commenting about Brian's "angel wings" outfit. Freddie had one that Zandra Rhodes also designed...it looked like he could take flight any minute!
Yup I love 70's era Queen when they all had long hair. Btw coincidentally MJ were good friends with Queen. Whenever Queen toured the states and were in the LA area, MJ will make it a point to see 'em perform live.
They're so tight cause while trying to get a recording contract, they spent big time rehearsing rather than taking club dates. Freddie said they intended to be ready to go into the studio.
@@HAP3SPEAKZ Thanks . . .Saw another interview where Roger said he and Freddie must have gone to 14 Jimi Hendrix sets, I'm remembering ...while Brian completed the work for his 2nd degree. Doing what they could do, they researched the performance element they decided was important. OK...I quit. lol
Freddie comes out like a freakin Machine Gun! FLAWLESS! Screw Rap!🤣🤣🤣 only Freddie could get away with wearing that outfit and he owned the damn thing! I’m actually jealous and wish I could look that damn good! Queen were chameleons....they could do ANYTHING and weren’t we blessed to have been able to witness it...even all these years later♥️
This was Queen inventing thrash metal that inspired many metal bands of today, Metallica covered stone cold crazy nearly as well, won a music award with it. Love Freddie in it. Thankyou for your honesty and attention to detail with these legends ✨💪🤟
Your reactions are great because you always point out things that I had never noticed before. Sometimes it takes me more than one listen to ‘get’ it, but you get it straight away. Impressive. Queen are full of surprises aren’t they?
fun fact: metallica plays this song on every concert since 1992 ... it was even released by metallica in a studio version on "garage inc" and as a single ;-) on the tribute concert for freddie james hatifield of metallia first perform this song together with queen!
This is the closest you can get Freddie to Rapping. Funny that you mention Metallica and Michael Jackson to his outfit. Metallica was inspired by Queen and they even have a Cover of this Song. And Michael of Course also was inspired by Freddie in MANY Ways. And yes Michael got the idea for his Glove from the one Glove Freddie was wearing here. Yes Brian looks kinda like an angel. In the beginning of the Show Freddie was also wearing a similar thing that Brian wore there but they often change Clothes Live. They had that theme with Black and White. Because of their Album Queen II (White side had White Queen on it and the Black side had The March of The Black Queen on it) So they really used their Brains.
Michael Jackson started to wear the glove because of the onset of his skin disorder(vitaligo) and he wanted to try and hide it, nothing to do with Freddie Mercury.
@@garytate7493 *_I know._* I never said he started to wear one because Freddie Mercury was wearing one??! 😑 *THE DESIGN FOR IT* Was inspired by Micky Mouses Gloves and by the one handed Glove Freddie was wearing, if you just look up a picture of the Glove, you can see how he ''combined'' Micky Mouses and Freddie's glove which then had the design of his own famous Glove by just combining these other 2 Gloves. Also it is called Vitiligo and not vitaligo.
FYI: If you view the finale of this particular concert at the Rainbow you will see Roger totally trash his drumkit. He warned John who ran off the stage but no warning to Freddie who was almost hit by a drum or to Brian who continued to smile and thank the audience throughout. Funny stuff. Roger was more volatile in those days. If you want to react to it or watch it on your own here it is: Queen - Closing Medley (Live at the Rainbow Theatre, London)(1974) - czcams.com/video/aczXaCWP3rM/video.html
I don’t know about John (correct me if I’m wrong) but Brian, Roger, and Freddie has been members of other bands before Queen existed. And knowing that they are group of perfectionist, no wonder they are already good musicians as a group in their early days (plus they’ve been friends before they became a band). Many even say that their songs from their first album are already a good set of rock songs compared to other band’s first albums. (It’s also a plus for all of them having diplomas or degrees before becoming Queen) 😊
Deborah Oh WOW! Thanks for this info.😍 It just proves why they’re very good musicians. 👏🏻 I’m a new Queen fan BTW (because of quarantine😅)and still in the process of discovering more from them. ❤️
John were in two school bands. He first started on guitar, and then they needed a bass player. The one group he was in was quite successful on a local level. Perhaps a bit similar to Brian's 1984 group.
**Zenobia** Wow, thanks for another queen info. Most of the things I know about Queen came from you guys here on YT. I’ve been in a Queen reaction spree for weeks ever since I saw snippets of live aid from their movie. The more I dig with their live performances and songs the more I became slightly obsessed with their musicality. Now I have more favorite songs from them which the numbers are unusual. The first song I knew from them was BoRap since kindergarten, my first favorite song from them is “I Want to Break Free” since high school (I first heard it from a variety show) and all my life before this year, I’ve been having last song syndrome on “Love of My Life” never knowing it was from the same band. 😅 I’ve heard their name all my life but it’s just only now, because of quarantine that gave me the opportunity to check them out and discover them (and now I’m stuck with pleasure😅) BTW thanks for the replies and sorry for the long message, It’s my first time communicating with Queen fans and just love sharing my Queen experience to people who enjoys listening to them. I hope you don’t mind. Hehe..Have a great day. ☺️
Well of late, his body hasn’t been doing so well either. The guitar was refurbished 5 or 6 years ago before he published the Red Special book, but it’s still over 50 years old and been around the world multiple times!
Freddie and Brian had a look in mind that they wanted. So they Went Zondra Rhodes who is a fashion designer .she designed those outfits for Freddie and Brian.. In the Early years Freddie would wear black nail polish on his left hand And Brian would wear white nail polish on believe it was his right hand.
Queen's golden age is considered to be between 1973-1977, their songs were more rich, in terms of musicality, in that period. After '80, they mostly did arena rock/pop rock but they surely developed themselves in stage theatricals.
@@HAP3SPEAKZ So worried about him. He’s 72 now and has had a very painful injury which he’s slowly recovering from. Follow him on Instagram and he is having a hard time I think. Anyways, you should react to Queen + Adam Lambert sometime. Of course, that will bring out the Adam haters. 😬
TytytyHAP3SPEAKZ💖💖💖 So glad you did some Rainbow1974 content. This concert is truly amazing, right at the start of Queen's music career. They are so fresh, Freddie's voice is amazing, their wardrobe fits them perfectly, designer Zandra Rhodes did alot of their clothes,and the heavy metal glam is super dope. I guess our Freddie invented rap and the silver glove in this song😂😂sorry MJ😂😂 Can't wait for your next reaction💖💕👑Pleeez can u react to Rainbow 1974 #Ogre Battle #Keep Yourself Alive #Seven Seas Of Rhye #Liar 🙏🙏💕💕👑👑
The angel cloth Freddie has design, he design a lot of there cloth he had go on art school, Freddie design one whos was a kind of smaler too. And the white dress he had on when he peform BohRap first time. He had design too........and the boys shange cloth between them, they was so thin all of them.....Freddie try to help John to not have cloth like an old man 🤭 he said I try to katch him up a little.........very good reaction as always! Omg you here what they doing with the music strayt away, and when you tell, and go back I can heare too.......love 🎼🎼
This was on the Same album as Killer Queen and Killer Queen was a completely different song. If you listen to any of the music from Queens first two or three albums they are really rock and very early forms of where heavy metal came from. As a matter of fact Metallica did a remake of this very song with Queen's permission in the late 1990s!! You should listen to the Metallica version just to see the difference but I like Queens version better and especially Freddie Mercury's voice because I can understand what he's saying..
I’ve subscribed - but all the pausing and talking is doing my head in! Can you please do it at the end. Let people enjoy the music then you can rewind and discuss things at the end:)
HAP3SPEAKZ I do understand and you make a great argument:) I’ve only just found you and I love seeing people who are new to Queen react. I was in a bad mood and needed to just listen to Queen so I put them on with headphones! I’ve been a Queen nut since they first started - I’m pretty ancient! Always been in love with Freddie and my new cat has been named after him! Now I get to sleep with Freddie every night! 😛Still subscribed and can I please suggest “Spread Your Wings” - little known track outside original Queen fans written by John Deacon the bass player x
Thank you for the reaction Queen came out guns blazing. Awesome reaction really enjoyed it.🙏😍 I would love you to react to Eurythmics a song called Sweet Dreams I think it was early 1980 Annie Lennox is also a great vocalist. czcams.com/video/qeMFqkcPYcg/video.html

Fabulous reaction! Their talent was and still is otherworldly! Freddie and Brian in his own right still are fashion icons!
They're so tight cause while trying to get a recording contract, they spent big time rehearsing rather than taking club dates. Freddie said they intended to be ready to go into the studio.

Thank you! I'm just doing me, and Queen are the vehicle that allow me to exercise my muscles further to share with you all. 💜 The attention to detail can be over looked. In my earlier reactions - even though you say I pick up a lot on a 1st listen. You should see me on my 5th listen or something later. Lol. A lot more. But honestly without you guys enjoying what I have to say and showing appreciation, I would probably just be talking to the wall. 😂😂

Yes. young Queen early 70's.....popular song in it's day.
