    Iconic song and iconic band. There is a whole Queen Army out here and they span every age bracket. Queen has a catalog of over 200 songs so there is a lot to explore. Next should probably be Somebody To Love Live at Montreal. You will see Freddie's amazing vocal talents and the whole band's attention to detail as well as how Freddie has the audience eating out of his hand as he engages them with just a word. Thank you for this reaction.

      @@theinsideouter6371 Yes, I loved the Beatles and the Stones also but Queen brought a whole new energy even through they definitely were huge fans and highly respected the Beatles and the Stones, even emulated them in some ways. Music always inches forward and new things get added. What I feel is the worst thing to happen to music is the loss of interest in radio. Radio gave us an entire banquet of music and we got to taste it all, the old, the new and everything in between. We actually got cultured and did not get stuck in a tiny circle of music "that was currently trending". The current music spectrum is so so narrow and there is nothing to keep us interested. In 5 years we won't even remember their names. Yesterday someone was reacting to Rocket Man. He had never heard of Elton John and thought that he was probably a one hit wonder. How hollow my musical life would have been without the likes of people like Joe Walsh or Eddie Van Halen, and all the greats who's names were often hidden in groups. People don't know the name Mick Jagger or Keith Richards today, even if they may have heard of the Rolling Stones. I miss radio and I miss hearing the decades of music every single day in the background of my life.

    If you know We are the Champions from sporting events, you will most likely also know We Will Rock You, and Another One Bites the Dust. Queen could do any genre you can name, their catalogue is very diverse. I strongly recommend Somebody to Love live at Montreal 1981. Live! No auto tune or any sort of computer generated bells and whistles, it wasn’t invented yet. Bands had to be able to do it all back then and Queen always put something extra into their live performances. It’s jaw droppingly good

Queen concerts were amazing! Four incredibly talented musicians working together to give you the experience of a lifetime, every time. They’re all terrific but Freddie was a complete force of nature. Clearly made for the stage; he put on quite a show but never did anything that didn’t appear to be 100% genuine. Even tho I sometimes wish I was your age, one of the best things about being my age is having known Queen almost my whole life. Thanks for doing this reaction!! Please do more Queen!

At a cost of $5000 made to take their place on a Brit TV pivotal show, it changed how music would be marketed forever (MTV). All these years later, still influencing artists and bands.

    If you like varied genres, you really only need to listen to Queen. 😁 Because all 4 members wrote their music coming in with different influences the have music from multiple genres including rock, metal, rockabilly, folk, blues, gospel, funk, opera and more.
    The final lineup formed in 1971. They have 15 studio albums, 10 live albums and multiple compilation albums.
    The band:
    Freddie Mercury - vocals, piano, guitar. Had a degree in graphic design and designed all Queen's logos. Died of AIDS related illness in 1991.
    Brian May - guitar, vocals, piano. Has a PhD in astrophysics and consults with NASA. Built his guitar with his father out of an old fireplace and oak table and other odds and ends.
    Roger Taylor - drums, vocals, piano, guitar. Has a degree in biology and was in dentistry school until Queen got serious.
    John Deacon - bass, backing vocals in concert, guitar, piano. Has an advanced degree in electrical engineering and designed a unique amp called the Deaky Amp out of parts he found on the trash. Brian still uses it to this day. Retired from music in 1997.
    SHORT list:

    Queen is a British rock group that was formed in 1970 consisting of:
    Freddie Mercury - Lead vocalist and piano
    Roger Taylor - Drummer and vocalist
    John Deacon - Bass guitar
    Brian May - Lead guitar and vocals
    Queen was one of the most influential musical groups of the 20th century. Not only were all of the 4 members of Queen skilled and talented musicians, but they were also all composers and had top ten hit singles. Bohemian Rhapsody (BoRap) was composed by Freddie Mercury.
    Yes, there were wings on Freddie's jumpsuit. After all, his last name is Mercury - as in messenger of the ancient gods. This video (which, BTW is considered the first music video and was the catalyst for the creation of MTV) was recorded in 1975 while Queen was still in their Glam Rock phase. Queen was a group that grew and changed to reflect changing the tastes of the public.
    Queen produced 15 studio albums and had numerous hit singles that were gold and platinum. You said you know of "We Are The Champions". Well, you probably also have heard, "We Will Rock You" and "Another One Bites The Dust".
    Queen is one of the groups where they are even better LIVE than in the studio. Take one of my favorite songs is "Somebody To Love". The studio version is wonderful but the Live version, performed in 1981 in Montreal, will blow you out of the water.
    Queen was talented enough that they could perform Rock, Hard Rock, Soft Rock, Thrash Rock, Progressive Rock, Rockabilly, Glam Rock, Ballads, Soul, R&B, Disco, Folk, Opera, Funk, etc. Here's a list of Queen songs you should start with:
    1 . Don't Stop Me Now - czcams.com/video/HgzGwKwLmgM/video.html
    2. The Show Must Go On - czcams.com/video/t99KH0TR-J4/video.html (FYI this was recorded in 1991 just months before Freddie Mercury passed from AIDS-related pneumonia.)
    3. Another One Bites the Dust - czcams.com/video/rY0WxgSXdEE/video.html
    4. We are the Champions - czcams.com/video/FP808MiJUcM/video.html
    5. Somebody to Love (studio version) - czcams.com/video/kijpcUv-b8M/video.html
    6. Somebody to Love (Live version) - czcams.com/video/aA2IRoPFIn0/video.html
    7. Under Pressure - (With David Bowie) czcams.com/video/YoDh_gHDvkk/video.html (Yes, Vanilla Ice stole the bass riff & used it in his song Ice Ice Baby)
    8. White Queen - czcams.com/video/f8usNj4x9NA/video.html
    9. Liar - czcams.com/video/AdWtxjfmKC4/video.html

    Nice reaction! Queen does Bohemian Rhapsody the best because it is their song, it was written by lead singer Freddie Mercury. He is most often chosen as the best vocalist of all time, he could really sing any genre of music authentically. Queen are the 4th best selling artist of all time. Bohemian Rhapsody is a rock opera and falls under the genre of Progressive Rock. For something similar from Queen check out Innuendo - Queen.

Lead guitarist, Brian May has a doctorate in astrophysics, has worked with NASA and been dean of a University. He and his Dad made the guitar he plays. John Deacon has degree in electrical engineering. He created the Deaky amp for Brian May. Drummer Roger Taylor has a degree in biology and studied dentistry. All 4 members of Queen have written at least 3 top ten hits. Not only are they in the Rock n Roll hall of Fame but each one of them has been inducted into the songwriters hall of Fame.

    WHAT A GREAT REACTION, THANK YOU for reacting to Queen & Freddie Mercury!
    THIS IS CREDITED WITH BEING THE FIRST-EVER MUSIC VIDEO.
    FYI: The a capella section at the beginning - even though it shows all 4 band members lip syncing - is actually ALL just Freddie Mercury; he recorded himself singing 5 different harmonies, then overlaid them together. (Freddie did that a lot in their studio recordings; one of the things he's known is creating complex harmonies.)
    It would be GREAT if you could react to a LIVE version of this song now, just to see the difference between Queen in-studio and Queen live. (This MV - even tho it looks like they're in a live performance - is actually the studio recording w a "performance" they did for the making of the video.)
    THE BEST LIVE VERSION on-video is probably at MONTREAL IN 1981.
    P.S. Freddie Mercury DID actually record an entire album of OPERA in 1987, with Spanish operatic soprano Montserrat Caballe. This was the FIRST time that singers/musicians from two different genres crossed-over to make an album together.
    Queen & Freddie did many MANY "firsts"...
    The first "thrash metal" song - "Stone Cold Crazy"; this MV - the first music video; they did the first stadium concerts and were the first western band to play behind the Iron Curtain; Michael Jackson got the idea for his one metallic glove & military look from Freddie (Fred & MJ were friends and recorded THREE songs together); when you see "Somebody To Love" live, you'll see Fred doing the first rapping.
    Freddie Mercury had a four-octave vocal range and has been voted Best Vocalist/Best Front Man in rock music; the lead guitarist Brian May has been voted Best Guitarist in rock music... each of the four band members is individually inducted into the Hall of Fame for writing Number 1 songs... they've done every genre of music you can think of.
    I really REALLY hope you'll react to MORE QUEEN & FREDDIE!

    Here’s all you need to know about Queen: Four members, Freddie Mercury is the lead singer playing on the piano, Brian May is the lead guitar player, John Deacon is also a guitar player, and Roger Taylor is on drums. All very talented on their own but amazing as a group. They are widely and rightfully praised as the best rock band in history and Freddie Mercury is hailed as one of the best pure singers and performers of music history. Queen was great in studio but ten times better in live performances. You should check out these live performances and react: “Somebody To Love” from Montreal in 1981, “Love of My Life” from Wembley Stadium in 1986, and definitely what is the best event and live performance of all time, Queen’s 1985 Live Aid concert. You’ll be blown away by how awesome they are in the latter especially with Freddie Mercury having voice issues and being advised not to perform. He kills it anyway. Great reactions!

    First and foremost , Queen are as good live as studio …. Incredible musicians and one of worlds most amazing frontmen ever.
    Recommend “somebody to love” live in Montreal 1981 and then “who wants to live forever” live at Wembley 1986. Of course Queens iconic 20 minute set at the 1985 charity event “Live Aid”
    Just a few suggestions 👑❤️👑

    Queen is epic. One of the best rock bands ever. Definitely explore their music. Watch their Live Aid set - it’s been called the best live rock performance of all time.
    Also Pentatonix does a cover of this song that is off the charts. Brian May, the guitarist, was so impressed he put a link on Queens social media to the video.

    • @teriegly9126

    My first time watching you react and you NAILED it! You picked a great song and I was impressed with your observations! You called it all from the bling, outfits, stage presence, buckets of talent and tempo/style changes! You did good, REAL GOOD! If you’re up for a challenge, find the live version of Frank Zappa - Inca Roads (A Token Of His Extreme) and definitely strap on your seat belt, it’s another wild ride!

    I'm an old guy (68). A number of years ago bemoaming the shallowness of the current music scene I thought music was dead. Streaming really opened up things for discovery, particularly from other countries and those with small budgets. I discovered one thing that music and creativity is alive and well. It will never die. We had a great time with Queen and Freddie. Queen is timeless.

    Queen are Freddie Mercury (Piano and lead Vocals); Brian May (lead guitar and vocals); Roger Taylor (drums & vocals) and John Deacon (bass and some vocals). The group produced 15 albums. This is off of their 4th album: A Night At the Opera. This was recorded Analog - digital did not exist yet. Freddie was 29, Brian was 28, Roger was 26 and John was 24 the year this was recorded. This band is ICONIC and if you listen to more you will never regret it. I agree you should hear the Live 1981 version of Somebody To Love. And another good one is "White Queen" live, 1975 - at the Hammersmith Odeon.

  • @joel7shulman

    To create the wall of sound in the operatic chorus, they spent about 10 hrs. recording 180 overdubs on a reel-to-reel tape recorder. - 1975 technology. Freddie was working on 3 different songs & had the idea to combine them into 1 piece. A rhapsody is a musical work that is episodic but integrated featuring highly contrasting moods Freddie's has intro, ballad, opera, rock & reflective coda. He created something people still love & are fascinated by 48 yrs.later.

    Queen is the second best group in history after the Beatles. Their rabbit hole is deep! Many different styles to the group. Many top 40 hits in the 70's & 80's. Great album cuts as well! Always on the cutting edge, Queen very seldom disappoints. Try their album cut called White Man from the 1976 album called A Day At The Races. It's hard to go wrong with this fantastic and classic group.

    • @karencrookshank4971

      Beatles are overrated imo. Queen far outshone them, in every possible aspect.

      Everyone is entitled to their own opinion however the statistics do not lie. The Beatles have sold over 600 million albums and 2.5 billion singles worldwide to date and have had 20 #1 singles and 16 #1 albums. That sets the record.

  • @Marcus_1001

    You couldn't be more right. This song is from a time when singers could actually *sing.* There was no auto tune to make someone seem like they have way more talent than they actually do. Freddie Mercury was not only one of the greatest singers of all time, he was one of the greatest showmen ever. He was so incredibly charismatic and the way he interacted with a crowd is unlike anything I have never seen to this day. It's like he put them in a trance. The rest of the members of Queen were also extremely talented musicians. They were not one of those bands where you could just get another guitarist or drummer. Every single one of them made significant contributions to the band's overall success. Great reaction, sir!

    Watch the Queen set (20 minutes) at the Live Aid concert in July 1985. Absolute master class in both performance and audience control. Widely regarded as the best set of the whole concert which was in put on to raise money to ease starvation in Ethiopia.

  • @jerolddavis

    Freddie Mercury is an insane rock vocalist. But even if you strip that away, he's one of the best singers you'll ever hear. GOAT, no question.
    Additionally, every member of Queen could probably have led a successful band on their own. Put them all together and you get something really special.

    Great reaction, it was good to see, that you really enjoyed the song. Pls, do more Queen.
    Freddie Mercury composed this masterpiece from 3 earlier written and unfinished songs. All those beautiful harmonies are the result of a very complicated 3 weeks recording in 6 different studios, only Freddie knew how it had to be sounded. In the first part Freddie is harmonizing with himself and the chorus section is based on the voice of 3 of them, because John couldn't sing well.
    Freddie Mercury was born as Farrokh Bulsara on the island of Zanzibar at the Eastern coast of Africa and he spent 8 years in a boarding school in India. Both of Arabic and Indian women used the eyeliner to show, that the eyes are the window to the soul.

    Respect to you for not cutting the song before the gong at the end! It’s so beautiful to see music from my childhood being appreciated by today’s generation. Of course back in the day most of us heard this on tinny radio! It was number one for weeks on end and well deserved.
