I have run out of words to describe the talent that is Freddie. Cried like a baby when he died. The world lost a treasure beyond words. RIP
Freddie was not of this world. He was sent for somewhere far, far away to grace us for far too short a time.
If you want your heart truly broken, go and watch the Wembley version of this and Freddie's speech at the beginning. I cry every time I watch it.
YESSSS… And the performance on Friday, July 11 is… INTENSE!🤯
(On Saturday, July 12, I think Freddie’s voice is a bit tired.)
Tears. Just 5 years later...
@@jodij6280 😭🙏🏻
And watch Highlander the movie for context
Freddie was spelling live... I was lucky enough to see him live twice and it will stay with me forever ❤❤
I died on November 25th, 2018. The doctors gave me a 6% of making it through the night. I was in the hospital for 3 weeks. Everytime I hear this song it gives me goosebumps. Why? Not because I want to live forever. But because I know the secret of life. It's all about the Beauty we leave behind. And Freddie has done that for us over and over 🥰
Wow,that's a very powerful thing for all of us to know and Freddie certainly did that indeed.
Thank you for this.
Freddie has indeed done that for us over and over. And way beyond all of us he's left the beauty of his work for future generations for ever and ever.
There is singers, then there is great singers then there is Freddie…no one comes close. Freddie has the power and energy in his voice and has the showmanship to make people feel a certain way. He is in a class of his own. Love you Freddie. ❤️❤️. 🌈
I agree with you 💯 all you said about freddie no one can reach to freddie's level because he has his own league
He died too young and unnecessarily! (Thx to our uk government refusal to fund research into aids)
Miss him Miss that time to bits ..,
"There can be only one"
I take great pride in saying that the very first rock concert that I ever attended was QUEEN in 1978 as a 14 year old!
This is my favorite live performance of this powerful song. Freddie was a special gift from the heavens given to us for a short time. We will never forget him.
I agree: the Budapest 1986 live stage video is the best; that "iron curtain" country went all out to provide the very best equipment for the show, so the video and sound is crystal clear.
I often think, when I see Freddie sing, that he is pulling that amazing voice out of every cell in his body. You see him rise on his toes, clench his fists, his muscles tensing, as you sense him pulling those notes out from deep inside himself. It's beautiful to hear and amazing to see.
exactly what I say and see: he strains his entire body, face, every ounce of himself to give us this magic
The heart. The soul. The power. Brian is sooo much more than a guitar playing astrophysicist. And matched with Freddie’s vocal showmanship, Roger’s driving percussion and John’s haunting bass…..yeah, sometimes the tears flow. Great reaction. RIP Freddie.
Roger was wearing sunglasses. That's talent. lol!
Perfectly put!
@@jodij6280Roger hits those drums with a power and voracity like no other
Brian's a pretty decent vocalist too, as is Roger who sounds eerily like Rod Stewart on his own.
John is the only one I haven't really heard much from - I'm not sure if that's because he's too shy to do solo vocals, or if his voice just wasn't good enough.
@@pattylisk6170
"Roger hits those drums with a power and voracity like no other"
Laughs in John Paul Jones and Neil Peart.
Don't get me wrong - Roger was great in his time, but others left him in the dust at his best.
Freddie wouldn't want you to be sad because of not experiencing his songs earlier. He'd say now is as good a time as any because he was a generous kind man and would be happy just knowing that you appreciate and enjoy his offerings.
This!
I agree; there is a sort of "sadness" I/we feel who have just now, 2023-2024, "discovered" Freddie, but must slowly realize that we do still have him, and forever. A lot of us likely wouldn't have seen him live, when he was still here. I am certain he would be so happy, thrilled, and touched, to know how he is affecting so many of us even years after he left.
His voice grabs your soul and hugs it tight
This man is one in a million. Unrepeatable and unreplaceable. A whole new level of real music. He feels every single word that is coming from his mouth. And he is pure energy. I just adore him. Noone is good enough after listening Freddies voice. Amazing reactions. Thank you.
I agree. NOW, after "discovering" Freddie in 2023, NO other singer can compare! Even the greats like Paul McCartney --beautiful singers, but just not the total-body power and beauty of Freddie's singing.
In a world of literally billions its rubbish to claim that no one could match him.
The simple fact is that not everyone with the right physical traits to be a great singer has either the desire or ambition to use them as such - or even the opportunity for those born in less fortunate circumstances.
Had Freddie's family never emigrated to the UK he likely would have amounted to nothing in his home country - or worse persecuted for his sexuality.
Thank you for your wonderful reaction. To steal a quote from Highlander, "there can be only one" and his name is Freddie Mercury. For me, the Freddie magic is his amazing ability to take words, mere words, and deliver (channel?) them in a manner that touches your heart & soul. Goosebumps.
I was introduced to Queen at the age of 7...and I'm 57 today...and an even BIGGER fan than I was back then. Queen is ETERNAL....musical GODS they were. 💎💎💎💎💎
Same age as me and introduced to them at the same age. Yes, Queen was and still is one of a kind, with Mercury's voice making them distinctive.
I've long believed that Freddie was tapped into a divine energy and it flowed trough his voice to all his listeners. He is a great Soul.💛🌹Thank you.
I challenge ANYBODY to name a better rock n roll vocalist than Freddie....the man was a GOD...period. 💎💎💎💎💎💎
Omg Freddie..no one can deliver such a live performance. He nailed it.
32 years ago he left this Earth but lived forever in heaven.
Love you Freddie❤❤❤❤❤❤
I don’t see that you have reacted to either The Show Must Go On, or These Are The of our Lives. Knowing Freddie’s condition, they hit really hard.
I bought my first Queen LP in 1973. I was 13 yrs old. I fell in love with Freddie and the whole band right there and then. I bought every single album and learned by heart every single song they released after that. I was fortunate enough to see them live in 1982 & 1983, and I can honestly say it was one of the best experiences of my entire life. The day Freddie died I cried for days…what an astonishing talent, what gifted soul, what a magical human being. Freddie will live forever in our hearts & our minds ❤
Queen was the best band EVER, and Freddie was a magical being.
Freddie was the greatest frontman any band has ever had.. The greatest showman
Freddy was an incredible talent. His performances leave me speechless.
There's a lot of great singers out there and then there's Freddie! No one can come close to his vocals in my opinion! Just blows a person away while giving the chills at the same time with some tears shed at some points (at least for me!)!
Freddie had The Gift and is Still the Gift
That whispered "so special" I was like man, finally someone see's it. He was a true blessing. If you really want to hear this song, there is a actual video of it, not just the live performance, that has the symphony backtracking it. That backtrack makes it even more breathtaking.
Freddie couldn't live forever but his songs will never die😢❤️it broke my heart the day he died cause I grew up with his music 😢for me, the internet is a great gift cause it preserves the memories in a way everyone can look at it and see what we saw in our youth and learn from our times.
my favorite queen song is "love of my life", it is one of the most beautiful songs i've personally ever heard. the wembley 1986 version is great.
Our hearts collectively broke when Freddy died. 😢 This is why.
I loved Queen and Freddie Mercury. All band members are great together and all are so very creative in their own right. Freddie left this world way too soon. He had so much more to give us. He is a once in a lifetime magnificent artist.
I would also highly recommend the studio version of this song. Brian May sings the first verse and Freddie’s vocals are even more powerful.
One our greatest performers of rock. You can't help, but feel his emotion. #ORIGINALARTISTSPASSION
Great reaction, thank you! I feel the same way you do about Freddie and this song, and you’re the only reactor who has conveyed the same thoughts about it that I have . It seems he drew strength from a higher power. I truly believe he did. IMO he was the greatest frontman to ever grace a stage. Thank goodness we have videos to remember him by.
He was only lent to us for a very short time. RIP Freddie Mercury!
Freddie is s total performer. Another best performance is the LIVE AID 85. Hope you can also react on that. They stole the show and also the audience participation is a WOW! Hope you do more QUEEN songs and you will never be disappointed. Thank you very much for your great reaction! Keep safe🙂
Freddie's amazing , "otherworldly" voice was actually studied. He had a fabulous range, of course, & vocal strength high in his register. He was able to produce faster vibrato & harmonics than any other singer at the time. He also used subharmonics by vibrating his ventricular folds. That's a technique used by Tuvan (Mongolian) throat singers who can produce 2 or 3 tones at the same time. To hear that fascinating sound, Google Huun Huur Tu & listen. I saw this wonderful group in concert many years ago.
Yeah man, they could do that to you! Queen is the best band that I have ran across in my lifetime. They do not have a bad song in the bunch.
This is why this is YOUR channel and we are along for the ride. It's always important that you do you, stop the video as often as you like, and enjoy all this great music!
Facts
I knew that you would enjoy this video. It is supernatural. John wrote a song for the Highlander movie. One Year of Love is another tearjerker. Kleenex are recommended for this song. Hear Freddie sing the blues. You will enjoy One Year of Love.
I always get emotional when I hear this. I know what the song was actually about but it means something totally different for me.
This rips my soul out
Amen to what you said ❤Your reaction to this is the best I’ve seen . No words were even needed.
I came back to watch this again, which I never do. What you said was so beautiful and so true . Thank you. ❤
One of the songs that makes me cry every time is Too Much Love Will Kill You, from the album that came out after his death. Very poignant, and you can hear the fatigue in his voice.
"...not of this realm..." Yes, SalvoG! As you've experienced this, so do I. Freddie, Brian and Queen at their innermost best. Thank you so much for your reaction--for each of your reactions as we all move through this 'forever' life, @SalvoG 💯❣
Love your reactions for that very reason.This one is very powerful..Can't listen to this without being incredibly moved .Freddie is so beautiful.
Freddie as truly the GOAT vocalist!
I've been a Queen fan my whole life and this song and performance is phenomenal! You have to keep with the Hilghlander theme and react to Princes of the Universe, it's a killer song and it has some of Brian May's best guitar playing , way harder and faster than what you're used to hearing! Give it a shot! And great vid btw, keep it up man!
I love how Queen speaks to your soul. You have one of those souls that really hears the spirit within the music. Freddie had that ability. He was pure genius. The entire band was pure genius.
I always felt Freddie was a direct conduit from a higher power.
Hello. I recommend reactions to the official version of the theme you take your breath away. Written by Freddie. It's a beautiful track and not that popular, but you'll be able to enjoy the feeling that Freddie puts into his songs. In addition, he himself does the choirs.
So glad you have finally discovered the brilliance of Queen. Love watching your reactions as so many of us felt the same too.
Look at the timeline of his life. He received his AIDS diagnosis in April of 1987. Look at what he did AFTER that and be amazed.
Freddie doesnt sing a song--he lives it
I can’t watch or listen to any version of this song without bawling 😭 It touches your soul so deep ♥️
Brian wrote the song yet Freddie always made the lyrics feel like they came from his soul. Another example is Brian's song "Too much Love will kill you" written about the breakup of Brian's marriage. When Freddie sings it most people think it's about his illness-he makes the lyrics his own vocally.
Thanks for a heartfelt, beautiful reaction. Simple short lyrics taken to an amazing place by Freddie and his band.
A long time ago, after returning from a Queen concert (on cloud nine I might add), a friend of mine who was an Elvis fan, laughed at me. Shaking his head, he asked me if I thought Freddie had the best voice ever. I immediately affirmed that in my opinion he did and that most would agree with me. Hearing what you just said tells me I was right. Thanks for my vindication 💖 Gone too soon. 👼
Great reaction! 😃👑It is SuperNatural indeed🔥
I have my own theory. Freddiie was an angel who was sent to Earth to experience humanity. Or chose to fall from grace. Either way, freddie had this otherworldly aura around him. Almost angelic. He was here for a very specific reason. Love. To bring people together with his music. His voice touches my soul in ways i can't explain. Freddie was blessed with enormous talent. And limited time on earth to accomplish his task. Freddie succeeded and has left a legendary mark on the world.
There will never be another front man like Freddie
I agree with you. When Freddie was at his best his vocal performance seemed almost supernatural as in NO other human being could sing the way he did.
THAT voice. And the other three pretty special also. That these four musicians found each other. How lucky are we.
I am an Ole school, African American, Freddie Murcury/Queen fan. Freddie/Queen can do no wrong. 🖤🖤🖤🤎🤎🤎
There will never be another frontmam like Freddie.
He was so amazing in every way!!♥️♥️♥️♥️ Queen were masters of their craft!!👑🎶🎵🎼🎸🥁🎤🎹
I totally agree ❤
It’s like his body is a vessel filled with music.
Queen and Freddie always! Miss Freddie so much. Great song writer a musician and best showman ever!
Queen scored two movies--this song was from Highlander. The other movie was Flash (as in Flash Gordon). Now go watch Freddie take over the world over at the Live Aid Concert. Best live performance, ever!
Wonderful review of a wonderful song. Freddie is showing off his voice in all its glory and it makes sense to me that you were so moved. He outdid himself here. (from Lise Hull)
Really enjoying your reactions to this phenomenal band thx ! Refreshing to have honest and real reactions!
Let me suggest to you the official version of the video THESE ARE THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES; it was one of Freddies last videos and you can see from his appearance just how sick he was at the end! The lyrics speak volumes to the circumstances!
Yes he passed a week later.always the greatest showman
For me, The Show Must Go On is even more impactful in that way
The song was released on Freddie's birthday in September, he passed away in November.
@@LorettaHampton the video was filmed on 30 May 1991, he was passed away 24 November 1991, six months later...
@@dinobravo852 yep you are correct
Thank you for this reaction! I have heard it many many times but it still moves me to tears every time! Magnificent! ❤️ Love from Australia!
Believe it or not, Floor Jansen does a great cover of this in one of her previous bands "After Forever".
Actually it has been covered a lot, and well, but of course the original artist stands above all others.
Is this a love song? Is it a lament? Is it a statement of eternal devotion? Is it hopeful, or fatalistic?
It seems to be all of these things at once -- beautiful, bittersweet, a vocal triumph of emotion.
This is absolutely my favorite Queen song of all time, and it's so beautiful. If you watch the movie it's on the soundtrack for, Highlander, it's even more powerful with the scenes from the film.
When you watch the section of the Highlander film where this is sung…has brought tears to the eyes of many people myself included, its even more powerful orchestrated and totally suits the context of the film story.
Yes cry, I have over this Masterpiece a million times……..this and from Wembley july 11 -86 is the best……love 👑❤️
'Otherworldly' is the only way I can describe Freddie's incredible voice, talent, and presence. 💫🙏💖 Thank you for a beautiful and heartfelt reaction to this incredible performance. ❤ ETA: I think the full scope of Freddie's extraordinary talent, as well as who he was as a human being, is only just beginning to be fully appreciated, in part, thanks to YT and all the amazing performance videos and interviews that are coming back to life here. 🙏❤
I know that feeling it's hard to put into words. This song gives me shivers down my spine. But then again more than that. I think god blessed him with his vocals also as musician and song writer. Also this band were meant to be together. Wonderful reaction check out the official version for the film Highlander. Not that Queen need an orchestra and Choir but it's gorgeous combination.
I LOVE the way you let your emotions show, Salvo…..and that that you react at such a heartfelt level to,the music. Music touches me in a place nothing else can………and yes, when I hear Freddie sing like this, or Steve Perry, or a massed choir, and their voices soar into the heavens……it can be a spiritual experience.
I love that Salvo can show his emotions. No one can hear Freddie sing and not feel something.
Hey SalvoG...
What a touching reaction to such a hauntingly beautiful piece of musicianship from Sir Brian May... I thoroughly understand the emotions everyone feels when they experience this masterpiece.. that's why I refer to Queen as the "Master Manipulators of Emotions", nobody could infuse passion into their music any better... which is why I would like to take this opportunity to share another piece of artistry from the same genius that brought you this song...
czcams.com/video/mBGTlt8-Pt4/video.html
This is a little (actually the entire soundtrack) snippet of beauty, albeit a little dark and foreboding which is unusual for Queen, from a French movie about love lost during wartime... written over 20 years ago... and only recently discovered, can't help but wonder how many other unbelievably exquisite masterpieces are out there that we haven't heard of, only God knows...
Love your channel immensely, please keep up the good work of spreading Queen's love of life and artistry to more generations to come... blessings.
That’s our Freddie 😊🥰💥💫✨🔥🤩💛♥️ I need a little Freddie/ Queen everyday 👑
Thank the heavens for the high quality film they chose for even their earliest videos. Freddie never made it into the 21st century but at least for a few minutes we get to visit with him and celebrate his life, recordings like theirs will live forever.
1986. Behind the Iron Curtain. We who lived through that era see Queen as much much more than mere rock superstars. They brought a world that was literally on the brink together in peace with music that everyone loved. And still loves, it seems.
That is some legacy.
You are so right!!!! Higher place... and no words can adequately describe Freddie! Phew, what an amazing talent. ❤❤❤
I've been a huge Queen fan since always, so is my daughter having heard them since in the womb when I would put on their albums and crank it up while doing housework. Freddie is the best, such a magnificent voice and delivery, but all of them unsurpassed musicians.
There will just never… ever… be another Freddie!! His voice, his presence.. Brian’s composition and guitar.. wow! If you should want an interesting comparison.. consider watching Brian and Roger singing/playing this same song with Adam Lambert singing.. the version done in 2016 the day after the Pulse Nightclub massacre. Adam’s delivery of the song that night was something to behold… no comparison to Freddie, as Adam has never tried to mimic or compare himself in that way.. he knows Freddie is untouchable.. and says so often. The song is just beautifully done by them both!! Great reaction.. it’s so powerful.. it often brings a tear for me too - and I’ve heard it a hundred times!!
I actually prefer Adam's rendition, and seeing him do this live is unbelievable
This is one of those songs that really has to be experienced through the live performance(s) AND the studio version. The live versions are indisputably incredible, but that opinion requires no persuasion, since here it is.
But you must see what they did with the official version. It’s just jaw dropping, spectacularly well arranged and accompanied, and almost unmatched in demonstrating the clarity, raw power, and beauty of Mercury’s voice. It’s unforgettable.
This song's timing foreshadows the his diagnosis the next year. His song "Show Must Go On" is beautiful and devastating wt the same time.
Definitely need to start a QUEEN playlist. That will fill quickly. The official video of this is also worth watching. Another song from the Highlander movie is Princes of the Universe.
Outside of Queen was Freddie’s collaboration with Spanish opera singer Montserrat Caballe. Wrote the Album for them. Barcelona (intended for the 1992 Olympics), How Can I go on and Golden Boy.
The best there ever was...man I miss you Freddie...
This is such a powerful song live, written by Brian for the Queen soundtrack for the movie Highlander. I think your words echo those of the Queen Army, I believe that all of us see this band and Freddie in that light. Freddie is a one off to be sure but he couldn't do this without the skill and support of his bandmates, and he knew it. His solo stuff was good but it really didn't sell well until after his death. Queen is a band where the total of the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Queen is what it is because each member had ultimate belief in themselves and as a group. Great reaction, thank you.
It's lovely to see you young ones, enjoying what us oldies did. Freddie was my first boyfriend . lol
I highly recommend you do a reaction for Queen’s performance at Live Aid, it’s considered to be the best live performance to be filmed. The bands energy is incredible, Freddie not only blows the mind of everyone who sees but his connection to the audience is like nothing you have ever seen. He had them under his spell from the moment they took that stage.
Queen will always be special to me. My first concert as a kid. This was so beautiful!
He and Elvis both had that magic and yes I think it came from a higher place.
Watch the movie HIGHLANDER the first one. The entire soundtrack is QUEEN. This song is in the movie and once you see the scenes it is played for don't care who you are you will cry. Takes on a whole new meaning. RIP FREDDIE
Another powerful and unique performance worth a watch is: Freddie Mercury ft. Montserrat Caballe - Barcelona (live)
Freddie was such a visionary talent taken way too soon. Great reaction❤😊
Queen and Freddie is the Greatest !!!
I just find your channel. I love Freddie and Queen. And you’re right when you say that it’s something big above us when Freddie sings. That’s true….I’m 45 years old, musician and trying to find better singer than Freddie…it’s not possible. He is just impossible to beat.
The film sequence is heartbreaking.
Tears flowing.. Rest in peace Freddie
