Thank you for watching the video!!! PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO THE CHANNEL: czcams.com/users/BroadbandJoseavideos?view_as=subscriber
yeah - Freddie took a few sips of beer or water during shows... but I saw him three times live.. and never saw him drink more than that -- many people first seeing the live shows comment on how many drinks are on the piano -- but fact is, those cups & bottles are for not just the band, but the entire crew... not for Freddie - lol
Guitar is Brian May
Nobody gives Roger Taylor the drummer enough credit for those superb background vocals supporting Freddie. it lifts the song to another level never mind he is killing the drums at the same time. Kudos to Roger!!!
Totally agree - Rogers vocals and drumming are amazing. Without them the song would lose so much.
Yeah! I’m like so your not gonna notice the amazing back up singer and drummer Roger Taylor? I get mad sometimes that he never gets enough credit for being him, it’s always Freddie which he was awesome but everyone always thinks it’s only him
Oh I love Roger to death and always give him the credit. He has amazing voice in any other group he would be lead singer, but there was Freddie. The whole group makes magic together. ❤.
I will never get tired of watching people learn about Freddie's, and Queen's brilliance.
No Coke, no Joke. Queen was legit.
I'm pretty sure Freddie did
Cocaine on occasion. I think i seen it in a documentary...but he definitely wasn't any kind of addict clearly.
Freddie loved some blow before the show.
You've witnessed a small portion of this concert. There's at least another 120 minutes of awesomeness waiting for you!
I can’t wait to check it out!
❤️
He's been called and IS the best frontman and vocalist ever. Plus, he has the longest vocal range of anyone. He is a LEGEND!!!! Dive into Queens catalog and you will Not be sorry. Lots and lots of Great songs. I grew up with their music and there was no one like them and Freddie. No one will ever get anywhere near his talent. He coukd sing anything. Every genre of music, even opera.
He is also a great song writer and musician. He wrote this song, Bohemian Rhspsody and msny others and is in the song writers hall of fame, as are each of the other 3 band members as each has written #1 songs. Each member plays multiple instruments, all play guitar and piano/keyboards and only John, the bassist does not sing solo.
Sorry, and not to take anything away from Freddie, who was magnificently talented, but he did NOT have the longest vocal range of anyone. Freddie had a four octave range. So does Roger Taylor. Axle Rose has 6 octaves, and a singer you've never heard of, Tim Storm, has 10!
You just saw LEGENDS!!!!
Freddie was a gift from God
Definitely agree
Queen rock montreal
Guitarist is Brian May. One of the most unique and wonderful guitarists ever.
There was no cocaine involved during the performance. Freddie and the rest of the band were actually, with a few exceptions, pretty professional and didn't take the stage high or drunk (unlike other bands thar had that reputatuon such as The Rolling Sttines, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin).
It wasn't beneath Freddie to have a few drinks on stage, and even the notoriously quiet bassist John Deacon had a hidden mini bar, but again these guys were pretty dedicated performers.
Freddie did dabble with coke a bit, probably in his Munich years (~ 1982-85 ) but it never interfered with his live performances, and in general his habit wasn't anywhere near as his other Rockstar contemporaries
Very well said. There are actually a ton of stories about it:
According to Ratty (the roadie working for both Freddie and John), Freddie entered stage drunk just once, but his own shame was so big (just like his bandmates' fury) he never did that ever again.
John drank on stage to relax his glossophoby (fear of stage, of all things), and is known for being a very graceful and happy dancer and even more skillfull with his bass, to the point of doing both on stage, while drunk, better than when he was sober (then, his natural shyness takes over).
The guitarrist Brian May and the drummer Roger Taylor had a beer each, and then just water for the rest of the performance.
They were all very profissional on stage, and in Brian's and Roger's case, they are until today.
PS: Don't know if this one is truth, but there is a rumor about how the manager Paul Prenter specially detested Brian May because he was the only person there who never uses any drug (he drank some on his depressing Munich years and during his divorce process, but nothing else, not even cigars). That used to irritate Paul a lot.
Paul almost broke up this tremendous band. He was a horrible person, worst thing that happened to Freddie and the band.
Welcome to the Queen world, lol.
They sing Another one bites the dust. We will rock you.
We are the champions 🎤
I love to see folks discover Queen especially this performance cause its my favorite between watching reactions and on my own i know ive seen it close to 80 times sad but true😂
All of the band members of Queen are educated folks.
Brian May was vote the best lead guitarist last year, beating out Eddie Van Helen, Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page! Give credit to the drummer too. Roger Taylor, singing while belting it out on the drums is not easy. The bass guitarist is John Deacon and he has come up with some of the most iconic riffs ever. You’ve probably heard them and don’t even know it. Another One Bites the Dust? And the riff from Under Pressure was stolen by Vanilla Ice for his song Ice Ice Baby and Queen sued him. That’s Deacy’s riff also. So check out those two songs live at Wembley. I’ve subscribed because you have me intrigued as to what is coming next week. If it’s Queen it will be good, because they were never bad
Yes, Roger Taylor singing is great, and killing it on drums. People over look Roger`s singing.
And to the bassline ripoff asshole, to me he has alway`s been "Vanilla Mud".
@@lancevaughn432 😂
Brian May built his Guitar with his Dad from parts around his house when he was a teenager. He calls it The Red Special. He still uses it to this day. Priceless.
Freddie LOVED Aretha Franklin. Brian May (lead guitar) said Freddie wanted to BE Aretha. This was a nod to the magnificent Queen of Soul from another Queen. 👑👑👑
Exactly!!! A lot of younger reactors either aren't familiar with Aretha or don't make the connection between her and this song - particularly the intro which is PURE Aretha.
This is my favorite Queen song!! Love this performance cuz you can’t take your eyes off Freddie!! Vocally Freddie is the best on the planet!! Another great performance of this song is in Milton Keynes 1982. So energetic & powerful. Last year Queen was voted best live rock band of all time!! They played every concert like it was going to be their last one! Geniuses of their studio work but masters of the live performance!! From this same concert do GET DOWN MAKE LOVE & DRAGON ATTACK. I’m sure you’ll love it 💕 Thanks!! 👑
I couldn’t agree more with your explanation. It was definitely an amazing performance.
They are the BEST Live band ever! So grateful to have seen Freddie and his band, Queen, back in 1980. I was in the front row, near Freddie’s piano. About 10-15’ from Freddie! Awesome!!! ❤️💖❤️
Awesome reaction! This is just how Freddie always performed, he had an incredible amount of energy to do this for two hours, and Queen toured a lot. He always put all of his emotions into his performances. For even more energy check out Now I am Here live at Wembley 1986 czcams.com/video/-iCY-noGbas/video.html. People actually like this version of Somebody To Love more then the studio version, but the studio version is great as well. People often liked Queen's live performances more then the studio versions. Freddie always changed the songs and performances, he disliked doing the same thing over and over again. He wrote Somebody To Love as a tribute to Aretha Franklin, he loved Aretha Franklin and gospel music.
Freddie was a very good piano player, all the members from Queen were multi instrumentalist.
The guitarist is Dr Brian May. He has a PhD in Astrophysics and his roadie said that he never did drugs or even smoked. Queen partied after the show, not before. They were very professional and wanted the fans to see a great show. Freddie is known to have done coke at clubs from the late 70s to mid 80s but never before a show or when recording. In an interview he said he took some drugs once while recording and came back the next day and it was such crap he said he would never get high while recording again! I noticed the video skipping about 6 times or so. Not sure what happened but you're missing bits of the video. The Montreal concert is one of their best. Save Me, Sheer Heart Attack and Dragon Attack are other great songs from this concert.
Yes, Kid! everything you say -- especially the recommendation for "Save Me" from this performance! Hope Mr. Broadband takes your - and my - advice on futures...
So this reaction of yours is basically how I reacted to it when I first saw it. Just awestruck in Freddie’s voice, his showmanship, the bands timing and backing vocals. Please do “save me” from the same concert. Similar vibe.
YESSSS
Oh yes, one of my fave too, at this same concert tour..
Queen is legit the only band I know of that is even better live than the record.
Freddie .vocals/piano, Brian May...guitar/vocals, Roger Taylor..drums/vocals..John Deacon..bass
Brian May on guitar, Roger Taylor on Drums, John Decon on bass. Freddy Mercury vocals and piano. Awesome group with huge catalog of music.
From what I heard, freddie was just naturally hyper. Tho he did dabble in coke at parties, he was very professional when it came to music. He sometimes drank throughout the show and copped a good buzz sometimes as they went but I don't think he did drugs before the show. Freddie just simply WAS MUSIC. His energy just leaped out of him. I really do think he has an angelic quality about him. Childlike sometimes. Innocent even. He kept that spirit up until the day he died. Making music till his body wouldn't let him anymore. Freddie had a strength and grace about him that is rare. He was a shy, quiet person offstage. but onstage, he was a beast.
Most of those cups on the piano are honey and lemon water to soothe his throat (and an occasional sip of beer, but not too much)
Many concerts, his “champagne toast” to the audience was actually water, because champagne bubbles would interfere with his voice.
(John Deacon was known to keep a mini-bar just off-stage though, and he would get a tidy buzz going)
Freddie didn't cop a good buzz during concerts. Watch a full show and you'll see he takes small sips every so often, sometimes of beer, but mostly of a honey/water/lemon combination to sooth his throat.
@@bbbfst I have watched full concerts. I said he sometimes drank. I don't say it was heavy. And there were some times he did get drunk but you're right. It was mostly water or honey for his throat. Thanks for correcting me and being the information police. Feel better now?
@@susanberrier5727 Well, you said "He sometimes drank throughout the show and copped a good buzz." Not sure about the need to respond in such a snotty way, but I'll assume you feel better now. Bye.
@@bbbfst you felt the need to correct me so I was just thanking you. Peace.
No one tops a Queen live performance! Freddie was the ultimate showman. There's very little he didn't say or do and no performance was ever the same. But every performance was outstanding! He connected with audiences like no one else. Brian May on guitar is the man! Every member of that band wrote incredible songs and it is TOTALLY WORTH GOING DOWN THE QUEEN RABBIT HOLE! You'll be glad you did and you'll love them along with the rest of us.
All band members got a better voice than a lot of today‘s frontmen...
Freddie found love with Jim Hutton they were together until Freddie died. The guitar player is Dr. Brian May Astrophysicist 💛 John Deacon on bass, Roger Taylor drums.
With Jim Freddie was so happy love thinking about that💛
Lol fun reaction. This was typical Queen live. The energy was always off the charts. Freddie performed with his whole being.
FYI-I don’t think you need to put in cuts, Queen generally won’t get blocked.
No drugs, just pure music. I was lucky to see them live in Oakland, 1980. Freddie had a way of making you feel like you are the only one there. My Grandson even knows We Will Rock You! :) Great Reaction...Check out "Under Pressure" Wembly 1986, or any of the shows from Wembly. Enjoy the Queen Music!!
Freddie is just different. All the skill and all the emotion, but with an extra helping of showmanship. Dude was special.
guitarist is brian may
Awesome reaction! As others have commented, Freddie did dabble a little on coke from time to time but he was a professional when it came to live shows. He would take occasional sips of beer during shows but also drank nonalcoholic beverages to help south his throat. John Deacon, the bassist, had a mini-bar set up behind his amplifiers and would have drinks through the course of shows but always was on point with his playing. You are now ready for more live Queen performances. Freddie Mercury was known for his energy on stage and the ability to engage with his audience. You ought to check out “Under Pressure” live from Wembley in 1986. You will see him at top form interacting with an audience of nearly 80,000.
Great reaction! Freddie loved Aretha Franklin and wrote this song with her in mind.. Sort of a gospel-y style. He was proud of this song.... You would love some older stuff like "Killer Queen" (maybe just the studio version) or one from this same Montreal concert, "Save Me". A high energy one is "Now I'm Here" LIVE version @ Wembley. So so so so so many!! Freddie was the best front man ever!!!
Long life Freddie (king of the Queen 👑)! We miss you! 👍🏻
Anything live by Queen is the best. They had straight talent, needed no help to sound good. Anything Live at Wembley 1986 "Save me", live at Montreal 198, "White Queen" live at "Odeon Hammersmith 1985, great, great band!! Best ever
All their live performances are good...watch live aid, Queen stole the show
Oh you definitely need to react to the whole queen live aid set
You should never listen to Dimash doing Queen until you've heard Queen doing Queen.
I totally agree!
Truth!
Absolutely my dear...
Somebody to Love. Fantastic song from A Day at the Races and it’s actually Freddie’s favourite also.
👍
Shout out to Roger!!!
Huge shout out to Roger ! He’s amazing .
The lead guitarist is Dr.Brian May's who also has a PHD in Astro Physics and has worked with our NASA on space projects.
The fantastic drummer is Roger Taylor who has a degree in dentistry, hes in the background hitting all those insane high notes, amazing voice
The Bass guitar player is John Deacon aka Deke, he also has a degree in electronics, all very educated, so there you have the Queen band.
FREDDIE? What else can be said about this ICON? his performance says it all, best frontman ever.
They never did perform on drugs, what you see and hear is pure, raw talent at it's best. Only one Freddie Mercury and Queen, cant EVER be duplicated.
Thankyou dear!! Pleaseeeee more Queen live. They were amazing live, I suggest Another one bites the dust live at Montreal or Fatbottemed girls live at the Bowl. Much bless ❤ And keep up the good work.
Remember, this a live performance. Listen, no autotune, pre-recording or lip syncing.
Brian may and John Deacon dont sleep on him. He is a quiet beast
Queen is always best LIVE!!
Freddie Mercury had one of the most recognisable voices in pop and rock
history. But just how good was the frontman's vocal power? While
Freddie's speaking voice fell in the baritone range, he delivered most
songs in the tenor range. His known vocal extended from bass low F (F2) to soprano high (F6).
React to the whole concert. It's Long but it's Worth it
For another great live performance that shows the energy of this band, watch “One Vision LIVE from Wembley”.
"A Kind of Magic", live at Wembley. Fabulous!
A rule of thumb for Queen videos is that Live performances trump the Official videos. There are a few exceptions. The Official videos for BoRap, Stone Cold Crazy, Don't Stop Me Now are the ones to see, maybe even Seven Seas of Rhye. But the Holy Grail of Queen is the 1985 Live Aid performance, considered to be among the best Rock performances ever. Audience size: look for Queen Rock in Rio 1985 - Love Of My Life.
He's got operatic, rock, and pop qualities, and some soul. Glad you felt it.
This is my favorite Queen song. Freddie was the consummate showman, the best front man ever. If you want to see how powerful Freddie's hold over an audience is, check out the whole Queen concert at Live Aid. Magick.
No coke
That day Superman wore a Freddy Mercury tank top
The man on the G-Tar is Brian May - he is epic.
One of a kind, above his unbelievable voice and pure stage presence... what stands out was his relationship with his audience...
Freddy was and always will be the greatest front man
No drugs, just pure talent!❤❤
Love this song and i love your video. Please keep up the great work.
Who want to live Forever Wembly, I want it all.
No drugs involved just talent. Queen was just Queen.
Love your reaction and love your channel! You are very articulate in your comments momentary🧡
That performance was LIT!
Lots of love for reacting to a great song of all time...a lifetime fan of Queen..👑
altho a rock band, Queen's music actually covers many genres. Dr. Brian May, the guitarist, is AMAZING! It's Roger Taylor, the drummer, who is doing those great back up vocals here. Freddie's voice Is strong, clear & sharp - and when you delve more into Queen you'll hear Freddie sing sweetly in falsetto in some songs or pure & lovely in others like "You Take My Breath Away" Live At Hyde Park, or belt it out in "Stone Cold Crazy", etc etc
I don't know if it's been mentioned to you but you should do the Queen Live Aid full set (20 minutes). One of the best live performances ever.
Love ur reaction..keep going !
Now I'm Here, One Vision and Under Pressure live at Wembley 1986...😃🤗
dude...Prince , While My Guitar gentle weeps, Creep, Just my Imagine...mind blown away~! :)
Best performance!💘
great reaction !
Welcome!!! This will b fun for you... Stay with Queen
. need to do
Bohemian
Don't stop me now
Who wants to live forever...
For those 3 the originals.... And an absolute must the complete 21min Live Aid ranked #1 love performance of all teams by any in the world
This is Freddie's favorite of the songs he wrote, he wrote it in the spirit of Aretha Franklin who he truly admired but nevee got the opportunity to sing with her. The band was pretty focused on their shows and always putting on the best show possible so there would have been no blow, crack or any other drug before a show. As a rule, Freddie didn't even drink while he was touring. The few times he had throat issues, he would slam back a tall vodka and then hit the stage but for the most part, the partying happened after the shows.
Great Reaction...Welcome To The World Of Queen❣🤘🎶😉👏👏👏
Just subbed, Because I see your currently beginning The Queen Ride, I hope you enjoy it...Best Band Ever!
BTW, you don't need to skip, a pause for a reaction, will keep Them from being blocked...with Queen, for sure✌💞
Fans of Queen usually love the live performances because they are so powerful!
If you look at the end of the video there is a tear falling from Freddie, it says it all right there.
They didn't do drugs, although they did drink a little. They all had master degrees. Super intelligent beings.
Dr. Brian May, Astrophysicist on guitar. He made that guitar with his Dad.
Freddy is ranked as the greatest front man of all time!!
No cocaine they're among the VERY greatest bands of all time. If not the best.
No cocaine needed.
Freddie is widely regarded as the greatest frontman of all time.
Geniuses and God's of music don't need cocaine or any other help of that nature.
Queen ‘Live Aid @Wembly ‘85. You will love, love, love it ✌️✌️✌️
Maaaaan 😁 awesooooooome
Glad your looking into Queen and enjoyed the performance
But I wasn't expecting you to follow that up with yeah must have been doing coke
Freddie was much quieter in private but wanted to put on a show and hated the idea of just standing there and sing
Freddie did art then graphic design
He designed the Queen Crest as well as suggested their name
He was the more creative and visionary one of the group
The talent everyone in queen has was unreal, otherworldly
More queens please😊
I love the younger generation who travels back in time and can recognize true greatness.
My of my favs Now I'm here breakthrough.
Lead guitarist is Dr. Brian May.
You'll see the super charged version at Milton Keynes. Easy to love both.
@BROADBAND, the names of the members of Queen are: Freddie Mercury, lead guitarist Brian May, drummer Roger Taylor, and bassist John Deacon.
They did a study on his voice back then, he wanted his overbite fixed but when they studied his voice to see if it would change his delivery they said he had one of the widest vocal ranges ever recorded and his overbite aided in that. They said it would likely really effect his range if he fixed it so he was to afraid to do it. Amazing, saw it on a documentary.
Annd it happennned in my hometown, Mtl.
Any time I see the words "Queen" and "first time" in the description I will always stop and watch it. Seeing another generation discovering the magnificence of Queen is a beautiful thing.
OK, you've got me waiting and wondering.
DIMASH had done Queen Medley.. am not sure if you'd seen that Dimash & Super vocal boys did a medley of Queen songs during an award ceremony i think ... 🤗 an excellent tribute to Queen as well👏👏
Check out Queen 1981 live in Montreal, Save Me. Also I Want It All. It's hard to believe it has been almost 30 years since Freddie left this earth (Nov. 24th, 1991). He left us incredible music and such a legacy! Rest in Power Freddie 🙏
Freddie Mercury was the best pure vocalist and performer to ever live. Roger Taylor’s backup vocals and drums are on point and Brian May killed it on guitar as did John Deacon on guitar too. Queen was a supergroup that was so talented individually but just amazing altogether. They were ten times better live than in studio which was already awesome. Long live Queen!
If you haven’t, do the Live Aid. Omg if you want to see Freddie play his favorite instrument, it’s the crowd. The man was a maestro!
I am here for anyone with an open spirit. 😘
Check out Queen’s set at Live Aid. Over 100,000 people, the world’s best groups, and Queen stole the show. Freddie had that crowd in the palm of his hand. Radio Gaga was amazing.
The lead guitarist, Dr. Brian Mays, is an astrophysicist who actually works with NASA!
