Absolutely the best tribute performance I’ve seen. He did Freddie Mercury proud.
yes i agree to 100%
Agreed
The only singer to get close. What a voice.
Fantastico, insuperabile. Voce grandiosa.
@GarageGambler I was talking about the artists that appeared at the FM tribute concert.
boy did they ever pick the right guy to sing this. he owns it.
Marc Martel
@@Konigsberg39Hell yesss
@@Konigsberg39 George is better
Probably the only one who could‘ve filled Freddies shoes
NO......Nobody can.................Adam is Killing it though.........R.I.P. Freddie Mick Ronson , David Bowie , George Michael.....apart from Live Aid, the best concert ever !!.................xoxoxo
@@georgiehollander2199yes, he can
@Spanky YEAH YOU GOT THAT RIGHT! 👍GEORGE SURE DID❤️❤️BLESS HIS SWEET HEART.🤍🕊️ GONE WAY TOO SOON 12 25 2016 💔
No disrespect to Freddie Mercury, but this is the best performance of this song I have seen.
George Michael NEVER disrespected Freddie. In fact, George nailed the song.
RIP George Michael
Freddie always said that the finest voice in British music belonged to George. They admired one anoter greatly and the band so appreciated this performance. The joy on their faces was palpable. With George they found some sense of the magic that had been Queen with Freddie out front. I wish he'd joined them tbh.
Listen to Marc Martel!
Montreal 1981
George always said he was self conscious but when he got on that stage he was electric. You can't take your eyes off of him. He's amazing.
100%. it’s fantastic but i kept finding myself annoyed whenever they cut away from George 😂
@@seanbauer9180 I hear ya. I get irritated that many of the music videos are so dark but I really can't complain because a lot of kind people made it possible for us to enjoy them. And I sure do enjoy them.🤭
the smile on Brian May’s face when the crowd responded with “love” says it all, it was as if Freddie was signing it himself that night!!! RIL Music legends
I agree. 👏
That was so sweet.
@@katwil89 너무나도 그립고 위대한 보컬들~~
yeah loved that too, in fact u could see all the back up singers and the drummer, Roger Taylor smiling too :)
Absolutely! May was diggin it for sure
Only George Michael could sing this song, in loving memory of Freedie!!!!
I think the same. That Both had the same energy.
@@martagrzegocka4432 bruh, both gays and british
I think George had just lost his lover to aids b4 this performance so ads to the personal vibe in his extraordinary performance. May George and Freddie rip george defo did him proud in this cover 👍🇬🇧✌️❤️
George Michael's finest performance.
A stunning tribute to his late friend.
True that
Da Stimme ich 100% zu
2023, and I'm still getting chills over watching the only artist who could have possibly matched Freddie in this almost religious rendition of arguably Queen's greatest song.
Agree!!
I couldn't agree more. Let me make your words my very own, word for word.
I agree 😂
You and me both. It's awesome.
2024 and counting...
In George Michaels documentary I’ve learned that during this performance, George knew his partner had aids and would die of it. He sung this song for him. Knowing that makes this performance even more chilling and powerful!
His partner was backstage. A decade or so later, George said it in an interview. No one knew his partner had AIDS, but George said in the interview he had only found out days earlier Alsemo was dying, and he angry, which was why his performance was so powerful. He wanted everyone to know Alsemo name, and was his partner. He loved him very much.
He had that enormous audience in the palm of his hands!❤️
This is such a difficult song to sing. No wonder Queen asked him to do it. Like Brian said in an interview, "I knew he could do it".... And do it he did! There is no way to overstate this man's musical brilliance. RIP George... we will always be listening❤.
Queen didnt ask him to sing this song. It was him, who wanted to sing this song and the band agreed.
@@miazga3 I'm not sure where you got that information from but George said they asked him to sing it.
@@PFCD I didn't know he said that. I got the information from 2021 movie Freddie Mercury - The Final Act
Rehearsing for 5 days for the Concert, the other artists rehearsed 1 time!
@@miazga3 you are right! Try to watch 'Freedom uncut', a great document that he did about these years, you will have a great understanding of this man and what he went through! Best regards from Paris!👍💖
This is my absolute favorite song of all time, and this is the ONLY cover of it I accept and love just as much as the original. George Michael took us all to church just as much as Freddie did. What a stunning talent he had.
Amen sister..!!!
Yes
Fabulous
I swear
My love song for ever

Here watching and crying my eyes out. George honored Freddie's memory with a STUNNING performance. What a charisma, what a voice! ❤️ Freddie would have been proud!
Who else got goosebumps? This was amazingly beautiful 😍 RIP Freddie and George
Every time I hear or watch this version, tears run down my eyes
Same. There is something so special about this performance that's second to none. I also cry each time I see it.
I did ❤
Ich
Meeee, all the time I see it. From the very first time I saw it until now. I.’ve seen it millones of times and still counting!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Michael had the stage presence, the voice and the command of a crowd. Musical legend.
I think that George Michael needs a tribute concert
yes
Not too many greats left to sing his songs.
yes but do you see some new nice band or solo thing ? hm ?
I agree but no one can sing George's songs like he did. He raised the bar so high.
It would have to be a one-man show by Adam Lambert.
Took all these years to notice... At the last shot, as George is walking off, you can see Brian applauding...
Chills. Every single time I see this.
me too...
4:00 - Brian May is totally proud of George Michael's performance and interaction with the audience. Worthy of Freddie.
Probably the greatest cover performances live off all time. Literally has everything. Pitch perfect , massive engaged crowd . Sublime
I’m surprised the stage didn’t burst into flames during this performance! George, the band, the backing vocals, the audience… ON FIRE! I get goosebumps every time I watch it, and it’s especially great since the visuals are clearer after being remastered. Thank you!
Well said, I definitely agree
What a gift this man was. Heaven is going to sound beautiful!
THAT'S A VERY HARD SONG TO SING. AND GEORGE DID THAT.❤❤
George and Freddie both had unique vocal instruments. Only George could have paid this tribute to Freddie, no one else on the planet could have hit the notes.
Even John Deacon looks like he's actually enjoying this.... That says a lot...
you can see at Brian May's face that he was so pleased at George;s cover of this song. greatest cover i have ever watched🥰🥰🥰
Can we just give props to Roger Taylor for playing the hell out of the drums ? He was definitely leading this song right along w George and you can tell how in sync they were by George keeping eye contact w him throughout.
George Michael stole the show with this performance with Queen! BEST SONG at this tribute concert! R.I.P. the great Freddie Mercury and George Michael
Without a doubt the most electric, hair standing performance of that night. Wow...fkn wow.
I am very sad that Michael and Freddie have already left us. Both had a voice range of almost 4 octaves. And in my opinion, Michael was the only one who could sing intonation and pitches equally well. Hello to heaven.❤
Truly amazing talents. I am also particularly amazed at how Axl Rose could sing over 5 octaves back in the day.
@@catarinaisabelleExcept Axl sounded awful in comparison.
Probably the best performance in this tribute concert
Easily the best. Most of the performances were pretty bad.
Absolutely! No one even came close! Love George so much 💗
@@crankfastle8138 Completely agree there. One example being Elton and Axl mangling Bohemian Rhapsody. That was just embarrassing.
James Hetfield did pretty well on Stone Cold Crazy.
Look Brian´s face after the people sing "Love" ... George Michael nailed it!
As far as I know, the only cover sang in the original key, meaning George was the beast we thought he was. An amazing man paying tribute to another amazing man. Sadly we’ve had to bid farewell to them both. The older I get, the more we lose. I wish I could go back and see them live one last time.
Your comment has me in tears, you are so right. I never got into George, but loved loved loved Freddie. Now I have to listen to George here on CZcams. Death sucks.
Two gentlemen that went to bloody early
Both were extremely talented and accomplished vocalists, unique and of another time Very much missed
U know I grew up on gangsta rap and rnb but damn do I have an appreciation fir this, rip to goats, I just saw 2 days ago we lost Ray liotta, I hate getting older, this was an amazing tribute
The amount of talent on display here is just mind boggling
this perfomance is so good it feels like the soul of Freddie Mercury took over George Michael and was like let's sing this together!
George took us to CHURCH! Damn, that man could sing!
George Michael was one of the very few that could perform at the same level as Freddie.
This effing Greek had everything - the voice, the looks, performer's talent, timeless songs and this rendition to Queen and FM....CHILLS!❤
He did not have to say "come on" to the audience, they would still have come back to him, what an amazing performance!!
George Michael killed this.... Damn!!!!
GEORGE SURE DID KILL IT! ❤
This was the only time someone did a Queen song better than Freddie! OMG. What a phenomenal performance from the brilliant late George Michael!!.
This performance will forever be among the top most important moments in Pop Music history. Long after all of us are gone, new generations who are not even born when George Michael and Freddie passed away will watch this...and be amazed and flabbergasted at how great a performance this was.
RIP Freddie & George. It makes me jealous to imagine both of you having a ball on the afterlife doing concerts together every night and having a great time forever!!
Exactly 💯
Better than Freddie? 🤔 Obviously not. 🙄 Otherwise fully agreed! 🫶
yup...better than Freddie@@aageseljegard8730
It's really amazing. Only George Michael could sing as well as Freddie. They are both gone and I will miss them.
Yes! I'd forgotten how brilliantly good this performance by George was!!!
My favourite song of ALL time!
How sad am I?... xx
The song will always be Freddie's and that of Queen's, but George seemed to have taken the song to a whole new level that day in Wembley Stadium way back in April 1992.
RIP Freddie and Michael, miss you both ❤
With respect to Adam Lambert if I had to choose someone to sing for Queen it would've been George Michael. This is amazing. And I am pleasantly surprised by how great Adam Lambert is.
Lambert sucks
I couldn’t agree more ..!
Yes amazing
Adam Lambert is not on their level.
@@Gemmarose9012 Agree with that. His voice shakes too much.
❤one of the best voices ever!!!.He died much too young😢😢😢
Never knew what a brilliant singer George Michael was since I heard this. Bless him.
George Never got the credit he deserved. He was brilliant. His voice was amazing and his stage presence was absolutely commanding. He did Freddie proud in this song, but more so, he did himself proud. ❤
He got a ton of deserved credit.
The best performance I’ve ever seen! Absolutely amazing!
Goosebumps everytime❤
Blew my mind, flawless.
The best the best!!!! Gives me chills!!❤
О,Джордж,как рано ты ушел,как мало ты успел ,как тебя не хватает,твоего божественного голоса! Господи,прости ему все прегрешения и прими его в Вечное Царствие Аминь
George a Genius... Only a Genius can cover and pay tribute to a genius
I thought nobody would be better than Freddie....till this performance appears!
Yes... GM did it better than Freddie for this song. Truly Insane performance from GM.
프레디가 부른걸 한번 더 듣고 와
@@empireentertainmentevents1353 No !
@@empireentertainmentevents1353 No he didn't.
@@empireentertainmentevents1353 of course NOT
George really channeled Freddie on that song. Like Freddie, George had phenomenal stage presence and had the audience in the palm of his hand. RIP to both music icons. ❤
This is without a doubt the single greatest vocal delivery ever,GM made this song his own
My god I still cannot believe that George and Freddie are dead (2023). Bri and Roger are still around.
I still get some dirt in my eyes when I look at this video. Brian May's face, remembering Freddie.
There was nobody better nor will there ever be a better performer to do justice to Freddy Mercury .
You're so right!
George never looked better!! Unbelievable especially knowing how much pain and worry George was feeling this night!! His first true love Anselmo had left the country to see a specialist that did end up giving him the bad news george was scared of. Anselmo had aids. George said he wanted to give a great tribute to Freddie even though he was under such stress. He is a TRUE PROFESSIONAL
Best song by George - ever. ❤❤❤A very hard song to nail. RIP George
"George Michael was the best. There's a certain note in his voice when he did 'Somebody to Love' that was pure Freddie."
-Queen guitarist Brian May on Michael's performance at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert.
Flawless. Rip Freddy & George xx
How is he so perfectly in tune without any in ear monitors even? Incredible!
Phenomenal performance. Never once have I heard George Michael drop a note, certainly did Freddie proud that night and I was there, 8 years old
Lucky you!!!!!!!! 😊😊😊❤
Freddie would be proud of such a performance ,bravo ❤❤❤
Agree!!
George Michael war der beste Act auf dem Konzert. Man spürte dass es ihm persönlich viel bedeutet hat das Lied zu singen. ❤❤❤
Absolutely spine tingling performance
I totally AGREE!! Spine tingling even after the 100th playback!!!❤️
George understood the assignment!
THIS is how you perform a tribute 👏 👏👏 RIP Freddie & George ❤
George was without a doubt a brilliant musical artist with an incredible voice who is one of the greatest artists that has ever walked the planet. What a loss to the music world and Humanity.....
Wow! What a performance!!..George was unbelievably gifted!! Just like freddie! They are true legends!
Without doubt the best singer to come from the UK . Outstanding.
George comes from space
Единственный, кто бы мог полноценно заменить Фредди! Какой голос, какая подача, какая энергетика, браво Джордж!
George, despite being a superstar, was still heavily underrated. Missing you, a gentle soul 💔
It is perfection, music, voice and melody go hand in hand so that this magnificent work comes out.
I miss you both Freddie and George! 😢
I saw this live on television, George sanged this song!!!!
This is the lone moment the Tribute to Freddie could be heard in heaven. The other performances by some very impressive people made you miss Mercury more and more as the show went on. Then…THIS. Heroic performance. George will always be in my hall of fame for this performance. God Bless you George. Hope you and Freddie are somewhere having a laugh somewhere.
Oh, to be there. The night of a lifetime
One of the greatest singers of all time paying tribute to one of the greatest singers of all time.
Exactly
This
32 Jahre ist das her und es ist immer noch das beste Queen Cover da sieht man was für eine Killerstimme George Michael hatte
RIP Freddie and Michael ❤
Love to both, George and Freddie. In somewhere place that all of you are.
Thank you.
One of the most incredible performances in the entire history of Rock. Full emotion, tears flow. Thank you forever, Queen. R.I.P. Freddie. R.I.P. George 😢😢😢🤙🤙🤙
George Michael at his very finest.
Listen... 😭😭😭😭 I miss this man.
What a performance
Bro… this has to be one of the most gorgeous and most powerful concert tributes of all time.
Love the smiles that brizn may gives to george micheal when he singing this song so brilliantly, and the stunning band behind george , brian looking so proud, and kerping out the way of george not taking any limelight off george singing how profeesional is that so supportive not easy to be lead singing with queen but stole the show just a pity two brilliances gone rip freddie and george and great queen still rocks Authenticness is so great here
I wish i heard George do more queen songs 😞
My guess is that no one wanted George Michael to leave the scenary after this amazing performance
Just like Freddy, George could also hold an audience in the palm of his hand.
THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER ERA LIKE THIS.
