"Do whatever you want with my music. Just don't make it boring." - Freddy Mercury. I think he would be proud.
How is this not boring? It's way more bland than the original and they did absolutely nothing special except disgrace Freddie's vocals
@@Agent-007the only thing boring is your comment.
@@clay-tw5gc Some people really are quite literally insufferable. Agent 007 - licensed to annoy.
damn right! and he is up there and IS proud. and maybe he also sees all those unnecessary wannabe gangster rapper kids that few people are insulting as musicians these days and rolls his eyes :D
@@Agent-007 And the brilliant part is that even dumbass comments like yours are still comments that feed the YT algorithm and gets these kids more coverage in the search. Oh, do you have an example of your musical talent to share for comparison? No? Thought not...
Freddie Mercury is smiling right now - and so am I - THANK YOU ALL
The talent of the students at the School of Rock never ceases to amaze. Incredible singers and musicians.
Why does everyone come with talent? Mostly you can't get the knowledge in an easy way.
it's mainly lot of perseverance, practice and hard work!
fav place on earth
This is one vocally challenging song... and as far as I am concerned, they flat out nailed it. It's that simple.
Yep 👍
They killed it..................
Bravo!
Yes it is, I'm blown away with them all! Now a Encore!!
Freddie would be proud. He actually encouraged people to cover his songs and even approved of parodies. These kids nailed yet another classic song while most usually fail at such an attempt. The lead singer sings her heart and soul out here.
I think these kids would have loved to have lived in the 1970s when this music was an everyday thing.
R/R lives thru these youngsters! Rock On!
@@groverrambo1498 I always keep my eye out for them doing another song or songs that I know (those later than 2000 I'm not familiar with) Most covers of old classics are often poorly done but these kids are always spot on.
That singer NAILED IT, didn't she?!?!?! Stunningly done!! Thanks for putting this out!! Gives me chills!!
When she hits that vocal fry, I was like "YES"!
@@ScottErb coming back and just smooshed by these vocals
The 3-part back harmonies are absolutely killer, the three guitar players were seamless, the rhythm section was rock solid, the piano player has great touch (while leading the whole thing) and the lead singer brought it all home - beautifully. I’ve been playing for over 40 years, so I’m qualified to say: this is next-level awesome. Great job everyone!
Don’t you mean “shivers down my spine?” 😊
Yes!@@kathryn583
Covering Freddie Mercury and Queen doing anything, let alone this masterpiece, is next to impossible. But again SOR gets it done! Respect to everyone on this wonderful performance.
What a fantastic job these kids made of that classic, great music never dies, and these young people are keeping it alive.
Great music will outlive us so we need people like this to carry it on when we're gone as well as preserving the originals.
As a woman learning bass who is obsessed with Queen, I’m loving seeing a fellow chick rocking the Deacon bass lines! Lots of talent from this group. A great tribute to a great classic, the lead vocalist did a wonderful job putting some of her own twists on it. The lead killed it on that guitar solo! Lots of energy from the drummer!! Really seriously great performance!
Preach! I too am a woman who learnt the bass because of Queen and John Deacon! Bass girls unite! :D Whats your favourite Deaky bass line? Mine is The Millionaires Waltz! Utter perfection! :)
I loved how she didn’t try and sound like Freddie. Because she’s not Freddie. And she made it her own version.
@@CaptainLoveBoob Ohhhhhh shit ahahahahaha
Better than Kanye
@@CaptainLoveBoob what a pig you are.. garbage
Are these kids now older teens in the S.O.R. as younger children? My grandson was in the NYC cast and when he hit 13, had to quit.
@@donaldpaluga hell yah!
There's that Teenager playing lead guitar like a veteran rocker, Absolutly wonderful.
Forget the virus and nukes the world must go on so these kids can keep playing They are awesome
Don’t you mean, “The Show Must Go On?”😉😉😉
I love the lead vocalist, she really feels the song!
The lead singers voice is incredible.
So unique and distinctive.
Fantastic job.
Bohemian Rhapsody crosses generations. WOW, what a cover. Super tight. The lead singer and drummers emotion takes it up a notch.
I hope all the members of Queen have seen this! A fitting tribute if ever, I’ve seen one! These young people took on a big challenge and pulled it off 100%!
i enjoy seeing them having the opportunity to work it, and perform it, with professional sound/video work. They will have to be proud of this prodction. Good on them.
Loved it---even though I never paid much attention to this song, back in the day. I know they all really have talent, but I give the most credit to whoever put these young musicians together, and helped them synchronize their talents to make this recording sound as good as it does.
This group never ceases to amaze me. I have to admit that I prefer some of their versions to the originals...just awesome no matter what original group they are singing songs from.
Fantastic arrangement, fantastic performance. It's recognisably the queen song but they also brilliantly make it their own. Really love this.
I wish to God, they had a school like this when I was growing up in the 80's.
Me too (but in the 70’s)
Me too (in the 90's)
Amen. I was in a band in the 70's and early 80's these are my song's. I would have benefited and all of my band members from something like this but all we had was the school band teacher would spend some time away from school with us.
Amazing job from School of Rock once again! Awesome 🤘🤘
For all of the School of Rock performances that I've seen on CZcams, this is the Gold Standard!
David Peterson along with the cover of California Dreamin they are pretty much 1 and 1A
Copy that!
I just love what you have all done. Be very proud of yourselves. I got chills watching and I'm 75 years old.
I’d love to hear the vocalist do something else. There was a serious growl there in amongst that and I think something a little more angsty would be awesome to hear!!
Also, the young lady on bass is massively underrated. Killer lines, tones and timing!!
Another female "dancin bass player" at The School of Rock
Then watch her in a Tool cover. She's *excellent*.

The growl Is post produced btw. Buy She sound brilliant anyway
'the young lady on bass is massively underrated' - So pretty much like the original band then.
I'm a huge Queen fan and I came into this thinking it was going to be a mistake, that they wouldn't have anyone able to sing Freddie. But in fact, I was the one who was mistaken. This girl crushed it! Great job!
I had the same feeling when I saw Queen with Adam Lambert, I loved the fact that he didn't try to be Freddie, he made it his own.
This is what I love about the SOR program, many people will cover a classic song and strive to be note for note perfect (and there is nothing wrong with that). But SOR is encouraging these kids to learn the songs and then make them their own! And to be honest I think some of these songs are even better then the original! 😀
Freddie would have been proud!
It´s amazing to see youth appreciating Queen and discovering his classic quality rock of the seventies
Words are simply not enough to fully express just how brilliant this is! Every element, the vocals, instrumentals, acoustic environment, arrangement, direction, mixing, camera, editing . . . . just WOW!
Great talent all in all. With this one I'd also have a standing ovation to the mixer-dude, you made this sound great!
Just spectacular ... the sound, the voices, the youth...
Outstanding performance. They took a great classic and made it their own without destroying it. I love it.
After watching several of these, not only are the musicians amazing, but so is the camerawork and editing. Kudos all around.
I'm not quite sure what to say, I was blown away on so many levels. I guess the only right thing to say is, that was tremendous!!! That is an unbelievably hard song to get right, but you all did it. All the vocals were spot on. The harmonies that sound so easy when someone else is doing them, are infinitely harder when it is you that has to carry off the 3rd and 4th harmonies in live time. Queen did it using massive amounts of layering and never attempted it live. The guitar players were all outstanding and I especially enjoyed the Lefty in the bunch. I loved hearing the contrasts between all your guitars in sound and style. The bass player, was awesome!!! She added so much in terms of style and sound, I was blown away. Keyboard guy excellent, the melody line hung on you and you nailed it spot on. Drums were awesome, you played and kept everyone going in the same direction, all while doing the little things that flavored your style, without drawing attention to yourself. Finally, the lead singer, I felt every bit of your performance. Your voice was beautiful and full of conviction, you made this your version. Tough to do with an iconic song like this where the temptation to sound like Freddie is always trying to assert itself. I will be making trips back to this version in the future 'cause it restores my faith in the fact that this generation is giving music it's due. Thank you all of you!!!
They killed it. Fantastic. One of the best covers I've ever heard
way better than I expected! Lead singer was super and gorgeous too! Would love to hear her sing more. Bass player very good and all did very well. Great job students!!
I agree
Such a talented group of kids. Takes a lot of talent to pull off such an iconic song. 👏👏
This is my favorite one on the channel so far. WELL DONE!
I'm nostalgic. I love the '60s and 70s songs you are doing. You give them so much fresh energy. 👏🎶❤️
I so agree,, this Schoold of Rock idea is amazing! Watch for some of these kids going all the way to a stellar career in music.
Has to be one of the most difficult songs to cover. They did a fantastic job.
It’s not that hard
Absolutely incredible! Those vocals in the fast rock part were stunning! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Shout out to all the recording engineers and soundmen who worked on mixing and recording this most difficult song. Great Job!
I clicked on this expecting the vocals to be disappointing
They weren’t.
Killed it
The growl @4:19 is epic!
Agreed!
nov 1991 was a sad unforgettable day in music,but may 2019 he shines to warm our hearts and our youth to share the love to us all, today.thanks to the school of rock
Another dynamite performance from this incredible group!!! FIVE STARS! What talent!!!
A very tough piece to play live and you guys nailed it! Congrats!
The things you stumble across on youtube. Fantastic!
Wow!! Awesome all of you,especially the lead vocalist❤🎶🎙👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻love her range .
Love your channel. Keep the awesome work! This is one of the best covers I’ve heard.
“Sent shivers down my spine...”
WOOOOW. They hit every mark. Ive never heard such an accurate cover of this song.
A group of students I don't mind passing the torch on to...well done kids.
These kids do so many phenomenal covers. It's hard to pick my favorite. I think, however, that this is it. Even though I got to do the boards for Kansas in ractice one night (what an honor), I think I'll pick this one. Part of it is the fullness of the sound - I do not envy the guy on the board (superb job). Some of the other covers seem a bit shallow when you a/b them against the originals, but THIS one does the original justice (as do others). Wonderful work, guys and ladies. I hope you all have wonderful lives.
WOW SUCH a POWERFULL performance !!!! Blew me away . LEAD vocal has some pipes on her . My hats off to her .
I agree. They killed it
who took away my mans guitar distortion??
LOL EXACTLY MY TOUGHT
Volume Down? Reduced gain.
I was like what the hell
No Distortion = No Rockfeeling
BRAVO!! BRAVO!!! Not only for just covering it, but covering it to near perfection! God bless the new generation of rockers!
The energy is off the charts❗️❗️❗️ This was an awesome interpretation of a rock classic… BRAVA and BRAVO band - you did Queen PROUD with this music and production work. Congratulations 👏👏👏👏👏
I loved it! Lead singer is fabulous but all the other singers and players together made it wonderful.
I didn't have high expectations for this cover (not many covers of this great song are good), but it was, and please believe me when I say I use this word sparingly, awesome. Jolly well done!
That was a first-class performance of an extremely difficult composition! I really enjoyed this -- every part of the complex construction of the song was there. Especial praise for the lead singer, who just rocked this performance. What a confident, stylish and emotional take on this -- it was a worthy tribute to Freddie Mercury. This ensemble really had a lot of talent.
Brilliant! I saw Queen twice live while Freddie was alive. They were perfect onstage and this is just as good.
That was cool, glad this was in my recommendations
no matter how many times i listen to this i always think of my first time hearing it in the movie wayne's world. RIP Freddy
Beautiful. Freddy would be proud to hear you all sing it so well.
Love the cover songs by the school of rock kids.
They bring a freshness, a vibrancy and joy to songs from my youth.
Thanks for sharing boys and girls. Love it.
I loved it. There’s no rule that says a cover needs to sound like the original. Love the leads voice.
does me good to see young people playing true music
Not too young. 8 had facial hair.
I am loving your music. Thank you for doing such a great job on this one.
Yessss school of rock- love it and hope that we get somewhere near this level!
We’re just getting started with our junior band 🤘🏼🎸🥁
WHO is the girl singing lead? She is freakin AWESOME!!!!!!🤘🤘
Relax there cringe master.
I agree! Loved her voice.
@@BOHICA_ Take a break Johnny bad, your nuthin but a keyboard warrior yourself!
Fantastic voice she has. Love the way she made it her own, and 'carried on'
I think her name is Eliza
Would love to see this vocalist do barracuda
Chris Twohill Stairway to Heaven?
Yesssss
That's pushing it?
Absolutely Beautiful!! Well done and enjoyed this very much. Thank you for the music!
So much work behind this! Great job guys! Freddie would be proud! Love.
Damn, I think I'm in love! What a talented group of young musicians. They've nailed a classic rock song, paying immense respect to Freddy and to Queen but making it their own. In the words of Oliver from Oliver Twist: Please, Sir, I want some more.
So cool everyone!!! And the vocals are killer! 💕
Oh that was just impeccable! Amazing performance from all and loved her voice. Especially the bass times. Good job!
Who are those kids. I didn't find the credits
Bass girl holding down the low end like whoa. Also, great video editing and sound production.
omg freaking good rendition i got goosbump everywhere wow
4:10 "So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
Oh baby, can't do this to me baby
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right out of here" and the chords coming after, 'till 4:37 ... 27 little seconds... bringing the song to its climax... 27 seconds summing up the amazing talent and quality of these young musicians... unforgettable! A gem on the crown of perfection ...
Each of you are so xlnt and talented. THANKS for this incredible cover.
Beautiful! Brilliant! All musicians top notch. And that high note? Superb! Freddy would be proud of you lot. I'm a Queen fan, so I'm very critical...
I keep coming back to this performance. The singer has great range, the guitarists are spot-on, the drummer and bassist never miss a lick and the background singers nail it. The recording engineer is to be given kudos for capturing the sound and mixing it perfectly. The one thing that would be cool would be to have isolated cameras for the singer and the rest. I've seen a video by the Corrs where that was done. It's cool getting to watch everyone contributing their part to make a great recording.
You nailed it!
it's a perfect performance for me...
passion is playing.
no one try to be someone he is not, and that make a authentic version
Vocals and vocal harmonies were awesome. Guitars were spot on!
The instrumental cover is perfect
Kudos for even attempting this song. Damn good.
only thing i don't like is that many-a-original-male-song-lead is sung by girls because they don't think they can get a male with that high of a voice or whatever. I have heard there are plenty of male singers to choose from and the collection of male artists at School of Rock is vast.
Best cover I have ever heard for this song !!
I'm glad I found School of Rock. They have some really talented young musicians and singers.
If I was one of these parent kids I'll be so proud and happy that they doing a great job
4:19 I hear some serious growl from the lead vocalist. Yeah, girl. You nailed it.
seriously, I really liked the cover but when that part hit, it went from really liked to loved.
Delightful and outstanding! Thank you so much to these great young musicians!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW, that was so well done, congrats to all involved.........
Go on, kids. Good luck to all of you. Freddie would have loved it, darlings!
where does the school of rock find such talented young people!
Those kids utterly and completely killed it. Love love love it.
They knocked this outta the park!!!
Excellent job!
Freddie would be proud
These kids did a good job of covering this classic. Bohemian Rhapsody is probably one of the hardest songs to cover, not due to the difficulty but rather because everyone will automatically compare it to the iconic original by Queen. Also, get them some drive pedals for the guitars, it was a bit lacking there.
And the original being just under six minutes long also makes it difficult to cover.
4:04 That moment the drummer has been waiting 4 minutes and 4 seconds for
Rock and roll continues to live through these young folks. We are in good hands.
Chills! Absolutely spot on!
