    Crazy to think that this is his natural singing voice! Vocal coaches have said he must've worked hard for years before he started posting his Queen covers, yet this is how he sings in his day to day career. It's how he sang with Downhere before he started doing Queen. The dude is not just Queen or Freddie Mercury. He is Marc Martel.

    To me, he is the one, the only, Mr. Marc Martel. He is the master of his craft. I would assume that it's amusing for him only to a certain extent when people think of or mention Freddie Mercury when they hear him.
    Now, I am a fan of Freddie, I love Freddie. But, sometimes I feel that it's kind of unfair on Marc. I hope that it doesn't annoy him after a while as people do it most of the time.
    Special message for Marc : Thank you for bringing all these gems to us fans who are craving for some good, soulful melodies.
    I listened to your album "Impersonator" a few days back and I loved it. Take a bow, Maestro!

    • @artfulstories
      @artfulstories Před 3 lety +3

      Beautiful words. He says he’ll never escape the Freddie comparison, so might as well embrace it. “To be compared to one of the greatest rock vocalists ever is a pretty big compliment”, or something like that.

    • @ThatllShowEm
      @ThatllShowEm Před 3 lety +5

      It's a double-edged sword, isn't it? To be compared to Freddie Mercury and use that comparison to any advantage, gets Marc locked into doing Freddie/Queen tributes or voice over work for the foreseeable future, or at least ties any notoriety he gains to being a Freddie Mercury vocal doppelganger.
      I think if you're watching these other videos, that aren't Queen covers, you know that Marc is capable of bringing so much more to the music industry. Hopefully he's not sitting on all of his own original music, and unsure of how it might be received by his fans. I know I'd love to hear it!
