#WhiteQueen #Reaction - Zábava
Queen never, ever disappoints, especially live!
I love the instrumental interlude where all four members communicated with each other with their instruments
I’m pretty sure they’d have evolved into a jam band - the rock equivalent of a string quartet - had Freddie survived. They just had that kind of chemistry.
So true ..
Freddie could vocally tell a story like no one else could. See why we think Queen was the Greatest . Great reaction
Notice the "wings" at the wrists and ankles of Freddie's outfit, like Winged Mercury, Messenger of the Gods.
Zero autotune just 4 great talented musicians.
Yes it’s sensational ❤️🔥 It’s one of my top 5 Queen songs and only Queen/ Freddie fans know how difficult it is to choose 5. When I’m in a certain mood White Queen brings tears to my eyes. Goosebumps of course. A band one never gets ‘ used to ‘ GOAT ✌🏼♥️
Give guitarist Brian May his due. Man is a PHD astrophysicist... Queen always had that Freddy theatricality, but they came up as a pretty hard rocking outfit...
I love that you did this. When I first heard this I was struck by Freddie’s voice how pure and true it was. The song has such an atmosphere about it like it’s some kind of medieval tale of Knights and their ladies.
To think this is live is astounding. This is better than the recording. Imagine sitting in that audience and having this performance going on. The music is mystical. It’s like it weaves a spell. You don’t want it to end. Thank you for doing this.
I cant imagine!
Seeing them live back then was a revelation. ❤
Brian wrote it about a broken relationship.
@@mollyquinn8514he wrote it about a girl he had a crush on in college but was too shy to ever approach her...
Somebody to Love next. Live only.
Your question: “Did he sing every song like this???”
Answer: “Yes, and then some.”
Freddie poured his heart and soul into every single performance. He wanted the people in the audience to get good value for the price of the ticket; he wanted the concert experience to be somewhat different than listening to their recordings. But I think it was more than that-Freddie was a true artist and always performed each song by expressing the particular emotion behind each song as he sang. It sounds like something obvious and easy and her few performers actually do it. Probably cuz it’s exhausting and hard to conjure that emotion the 1000th time you have sung that song. But Freddie always brought it. I, for one, am very thankful that I was alive at a time to have witnessed his genius! Thanks for doing this reaction!
You have to hear the live version of “You take my breath away”
Queen is the best when they perform live. Freddie has been called the best vocalist, ever!!!
Queen II is one of their finest moments. They have many.
I'm 46 years old man and almost every time listening this song I have chills and tears. It's absolutely beautiful and mind-blowing song
This is my favorite Queen live performance. The duo of the piano and guitar was astounding. The drumming is so effect as well. I really love how affected you are by good music. Your sincerity is appreciated.
thank you so much
@@SalvoG My pleasure
Yes - love the larger screen. Sometime soon you might like to check out:
You Take My Breath Away - Live at Hyde Park, 1976
Another incredible live performance, this time just Freddie alone on piano, shushing a rowdy crowd at a free concert in the park with a tale of sensual, obsessive love. 2 minutes + of pure magic.
What a fantastic concert this was and I was so lucky to see this at the time brought my ticket for £2.50 back in 1975 and was presented by the The great Bob Harris whistle Test.
What a band what a voice never to be beaten best frontman of a band ever in my opinion
FREDDIE Such a sad loss to the music industry keep listening to more of his tracks including his time with duo partner opera singer Montsaratt Caballè
Barcelona' & 'How can I go on'
Shows what an epic voice he had RIP FREDDIE 🙏❤
I had the honor of seeing Freddie Mercury and Queen live 3 times and just after the 4th album release. I can confirm that Freddie is THIS awesome live. The first time I saw them live, I was in the front row and I remember closing my eyes and it felt like I was listening to their recording. Frigging amazing! He totally controlled the entire crowd. Oh and you need to react to ANY of their songs from the album Sheer Heart Attack. It shows the diversity of what is and always will be Queen!
This song - especially this live version - is without a doubt my favorite Queen song. I love seeing other people experience something like this.
Thank you for that reaction..believe it or not a huge amount of people adore this song....Queen were geniuses...much more than a rock band...a genre all on their own🤩
Thank you for another Queen reaction! Any time someone tries to tell me Queen is over-hyped and over-rated I think of this song. The instrumental section is just as emotional as the vocal and that's really saying something. This band had the vocals, the songwriting, and the musicianship. Their passion and hard work make them timeless.
I agree!!!! Their works are music Art,have high quality on records and live also because of their talent,musicianship,perfection!!!!! THEY have high energy and passion!!!! Their music flows in the Air!!!Nobody can reproduce their artistry!!!!!😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
This performance if one of my favourites. Pls, check out another hidden gem called You Take My Breath Away at Hyde Park 76, just Freddie and the piano.
Dear Freddie never left anything in reserve...it was always always left there on the stage. An inimitable performer, and a sweetheart of a man.❤
You should react to Queens performance at "Live aid " 1985. It's considered the best rock performance.
Love the screen and your wonderful reaction.
I see you reacted to "Somebody to love " video, but you Have to react to it live. Somebody to love. Live at Montreal 1981. And live at Milton Keynes 1982 are both great performances. Their live performances are the best. They never disappoint
This performance is one of my favorites and really showcases how pure Freddie’s voice is! One reason why I am such a Queen fan is that they were the same or even better live. At some point please react to their Live Aid set where they totally stole the show. Freddie’s voice is so powerful in that set and he gives a master class in performance and crowd control!
This is another must for everyone to see!
Live aid 🤩 please react 😃
Every true Queen fan knows that Freddie and the guys ALWAYS were remarkable live. Watch ANY live Queen video and you will be blown away.
You Take My Breath Away live at Hyde Park 1976 is just Freddie and his piano, introducing a new song he wrote, filled with emotion. Freddie was not only a great musician, vocalist, and front man, but an inspired composer and lyricist as well. The performance, with an outdoor audience of over 100,000, is beautifully performed
Please do more Queen reactions, I love these!
Check out Who Wants to Live Forever live in Budapest. There are just so many . They are the greatest Rock band of all time .
It was written by Brian for his previous band “Smile” in 1968, several years before the band “Queen” would be created in 1970.
Queen's catalog of music is wide and varied. It includes soft rock, hard rock, progressive rock, thrash rock, area rock, rockabilly, R&B, blues, gospel, disco, jazz, folk, ragtime, opera, ballads, British music hall tunes, etc, and songs combining any number of these genders (i.e "T.he March of the Black Queen" - czcams.com/video/SoBMhx_ap_g/video.html which is too complex to ever perform live)
One of my favorite of Queen's early songs is called "Liar" - czcams.com/video/FK9YSri2xNQ/video.html.
Also, I love this medley of 3 songs "In The Lap of The Gods - Revisited", "Seven Seas of Rhye", and "Tear It Up" - czcams.com/video/sb-uUzLu3Wc/video.html
Great reaction! Now you know how Queen has such an enormous and loyal fan base. There are so many outstanding live performances. This one happens to one of my all time favorites. The live performances are very different from the studio version and many live performances are very different from other live performances, so there many versions to love. For a very different song please consider Stone Cold Crazy, live at the Rainbow 1974.
Listening to the bluesy music you have in your background, you might appreciate Queen, My Melancholy Blues. There are good live versions, but I prefer the studio version, it's your choice.
He is the real GOAT of entertainment. He said he would become a legend and he did. We lost him much too soon.
I get lost in this song every time. Hauntingly beautiful, and no words for Freddie's voice and performance except otherworldly. 💖💖💖
Awesome reaction! Now you should check out Father To Son - Queen live at the Rainbow 1974, it is another amazing song and performance. Basically the whole Queen live at the Rainbow 1974 is amazing.
So awesome ❤ thanks for your reaction 😊 who wants to live forever live Wembley, under pressure also same 😊
Loved your reaction to this masterpiece thx! Great music and beautiful Freddy vocals !
THANK YOU for reacting to this... One of my Top Favorite Live Performances!
I hear you,Sal. Freddie had utter control of his voice…and such nimbleness and his pitch placement was perfect. This is very complex melodically and he handles it was ease, confidence and aplomb. A master at work.
Saying Freddie is “good” is a huge understatement. He is, perhaps, the best pop rock voice ever. Certainly many consider him so. Not hard rock….but that wasn’t Queen’s genre anyway
No matter which band member wrote a particular song, Freddie sang it like it was a true-life experience for him. Exceptional.
God I sooo miss Queen
We had I think the halcyon days on every level?!
OF COURSE, Freddie could do and DID do "hard rock". Wueen has plenty of hard and metal Songs. Not the top 40 usual suspects, of course. You"ll have to really dig into their Repertoire.
@@juttapopp1869 name a metal song that Queen did. I’m not trying to challenge you. I’m honestly curious what you think Queen did that was metal.
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 , Great King Rat, Ogre Battle (plenty on Queen1 and 2!), Dead on time, dragon Attack, Gimme the prize... lots Rock Band metal in almost every Album.Brian worked with Sabbath and Queen had MAIDEN as a warm-up act in Rio. They aren't strictly-speaking a metal-band, but as I said, you can find hard and metallic almost on every album.
The word your searching for is captivating
Incredible!!!
Freddie, Brian, Roger, and John, what a band, like no other.
No one can tell a story like Freddie he literally makes you feel every lyric, he was just that good! A true legend ♥️
I’m sooo happy with your great reaction and appreciation of this magical performance! In my view, no one comes close to Queen. Each member’s contribution is essential for the total Queen sound and each one of them have written number 1 hits!
Keep up the good work - your reactions are ace!
Thanks Salvo for another great reaction... yes, you are becoming a Queenie!! So many of us are... and for so many years...
I so LOVE this song, it highlights not only Freddie's vocals, but also his insane piano skills, and with Brian enhancing the 'conversation' between guitar and piano, it becomes so hauntingly mesmerizing and beautiful... one of my all-time favorites. Roger and John round out the song so expertly, keeping the tempo flowing so smoothly and effortlessly... yes, TOTALLY underrated!!
Another totally underrated song would be "The Prophet's Song", since BoRhap out-shined it on the Night at the Opera album... or "In the Lap of the Gods", the first one, not the 'revisited' one, that's a totally different song... blessings to you, my dear friend...
One of my all time favorite early Queen songs ♥️ His passion is infectious 🎤🎸 The haunting guitar & piano paired with Freddie’s amazing vocals 🔥🔥 Wow ♥️🎼 This is from 1974! What a great year for music ♥️
Now you should check out "March of the Black Queen/Funny How Love Is".
That's how they play out on Side Black, Side 2, of Queen II.
Side 1 of the album features songs written by everyone. Side 2 was written entirely by Freddie, I believe
Live…Freddie sings every song EXACTLY as it has to be sung! GOAT…especially live.
One of the best performances of all time..a new beginning..i was 4yrs old when this song came out..the greatest...
Freddie gives his all- and the band? Superior to all!!
Mystical magical Queen - Brian penned this beauty about a girl he had a crush on in his college Biology class! Always get a Tolkien vibe from this performance! The blending of piano & guitar is so wonderful.🧝🏻♀️🍃
One of Freddie's finest performances
It’s easy to forget this is a live performance until the applause kicks in. Perfection. Originally did not have a piano line.
This album was one side white, Brian, and the opposite side black was Freddie. Kinda like their nail polish. Lol
“Did he always sing like this live?”
Why yes, yes he did.
So pleased you listened to this, you should check out the whole concert it’s perfect 👌🏻 Freddie never disappoints live, he really is the greatest showman that ever lived, RIP Freddie 💔💔💕
This is my absolute favorite song by Queen and that hard to do! Fantastic display of raw talent one could hope to see and hear! Please, Please check out "March of the Black Queen" with headphones, the amount of panning is crazy good! Thanks for sharing your reaction to greatest band and frontman to ever grace the stage!
I agree with this - both about the raw talent on display and about March of the Black Queen - so complex and baroque and showcasing incredible composing and musicianship.
Freedie King of YOU TUBE
Great reaction again! 🎹👑🥂
Great reaction! This is probably my favorite live song ❤️. A great hidden gem is "It's Late"
That's Queen baby!!!!!
This was amazing. Maybe do another one from this concert. Great reaction thanks
Wellcome to the rabbithole of queens!
Freddie’s gift was that he could sing incredibly and you felt he was singing straight to you. He with Brian May masterfully on the guitar, John Deacon genius on bass and Roger Taylor backing Freddie with his powerful drumming and killer scratchy voice. They are geniuses. 16 albums so plenty more for you to check out!
I remember seeing them do this in concert and to a person we were mesmerized. This was also back in the time when Freddie ALWAYS threw roses out to the audience. I missed one by one person. 😢
Definitely underrated, I can't understand why the views aren't insanely high. I watch this video several times a week and I still get chills when I listen. Queen was so innovative, they influenced musicians from every genre. Stone Cold Crazy and Keep yourself alive are also great songs from their early years.
Here are some songs to react to.
"Bohemian rhapsody ", the video and live at Montreal, or really any live performance. This is considered the best song ever!!
"You take my breath away", live
"Under pressure ", live at wembley 1986.
Just a few...queen are the best with live performances. Freddie Mercury, considered the best vocalist ever!!
Sono così felice che tu abbia fatto questa reaction, la tua espressione dice tutto! Adoro i primi Queen!
Hi! Love your reaction freddie's voice is outstanding his piano playing is insane and brian may his playing on the quitar is insane love brian so talented just a masterpiece hands down brilliant performance
Give me chills out of this world 💜❤️🔥❤
I don't care for the studio version of the song from Queen II but I love this version. This is my favorite live songs by Queen.
In the instrumental portion, you can hear,at least in this early part of their career, the influence of Jimmy Page on Brian’s playing. No secret. Queen loved Zeppelin. But Queen very quickly developed their own style and their creativity was boundless.
There are several versions , some only audio , but friggin incredible performances by my favorite band since 74 .
Likewise first time i heard white queen i was stunned and yes.one of my top 5 queen songs for sure !!!
This band are epic in every way. Vocals, guitar, drums & bass in perfect harmony. March of the Black Queen is the partner song to this and well worth a listen. The Queen back catalogue never gets old. Buckle up, you're in for the ride of your life!!!
When a friend introduced me to Queen II, I fell in love with this song...but then I saw/heard the Live At The Rainbow version (pretty much identical to this one at the Hammersmith), and my jaw dropped! Freddie's voice & the sonic treatment by the rest of the band could only be described as 'ethereal'. It elevated an already favourite track to legendary status. So glad you reacted to this!
One of my favorite songs by them . Their music just takes you away.
First time I’ve seen anyone react to anything before A Night At The Opera. Nice.
Queen always best live
Try Queen “was it all worth it “ 🔥🔥🔥thanks boss
My favorite album from them, Queen II. Never get tired of this.
Best live band ever in my opinion. They didn’t have auto tune back then, but Freddie didn’t need it. I love that their live performances never sound exactly like the studio version. Every live performance, Freddie does it differently. He didn’t like to be cookie cutter. The live performances are the way to go with Queen
Magical, powerful, compelling, passionate, apparition-like song. So glad you reviewed "White Queen", because I'm not sure I've heard anyone touch this beautiful ballad. So many of Queen's songs are underrated, and this certainly is one of them. In 1975, Freddie's voice was crystal clear, with the ability to traverse octaves easily, and hold notes endlessly. As he sings "White Queen," Freddie draws you into a mystical realm with his amorous and erotic voice. Unfortunately, he started smoking cigarettes, and he developed the dreaded vocal nodes. As time progressed, Freddie developed his signature "growl", which is also quite appealing. In this song, let's not forget about Freddie's ardent and intense piano playing that is absolutely mesmerizing. Freddie easily could have been a concert pianist. Thank you, Salvo, for reviewing this song.
Hauntingly beautiful. 💕💜💕💜
Welcome to the world of Queen! They have several masterpieces and this performance was one of them. You might want to try out "The March of the Black Queen" or The Prophet's Song". Thanks for you reaction to this wonderful performance.
One of the best songs by Queen (Brian May) and sung by the best singer ever. I’m a HUGE Freddie fan! I have about 30 Freddie dolls, pictures of him on my walls (a few hand painted) and jewelry of him as well! Only wish I could have seen them in person. The band now to me is not as good as when Freddie was alive. Maybe if they wrote new songs, I might like them a bit better. You made me cry as I felt your emotions as they resemble mine!
What we can say is that Freddie was feeling music with is body and was able to translate it with his voice, yes very underrated song and there are many more : check out Somebody to love in Montreal 1981 or Love of my life, or Another one by the dust, or Bohemian Rhapsody, same concert… Queen is often better live
In my defence....awesome song, awesome Freddie!
"Lap of the Gods"
This blew my mind. I can't express his talent.
Best live performance off Queen! I’m a big fan, but this performance kills me! I’m listening and listening…the whole band is perfect here.
This is "the" definitive live version of this song. I saw it live twice on this tour in 1975.
Whenever I hear this and Freddie describing the White Queen walking in light always makes me think of Galadriel walking through Lothlorien.
The day the Legend was born...The Greatest Band EVER.....
This is an outstanding performance by the entire band from start to finish. The only thing wrong with this video is the cameraperson never focuses on Brian as he is absolutely shredding his guitar during that long instrumental portion. Very disappointing, fire that guy or girl!! Brian wrote this song about a girl in one of his college classes who he was interested in but didn't have the nerve to ask out. Beautiful song, unbelievable live performance. Queen...What a great band! Thank you for your reaction.
I've never heard Queen sound like this, I'm getting PF vibes. Loved this
Great reaction...Brian May wrote “White Queen” about a girl in his university ...he really liked her but didn’t have the courage to approach her..believe it or not ”Black Queen” is featured in the game “Final Fantasy” V111...Queen is everywhere🤩
This is classic Queen in their early/mid 70's progressive phase from their brilliant second album "Queen 2", they'd just released "A Night at the Opera" and the world was mesmerized by the brilliance of "Bohemian Rhapsody". It was billed as "The Night at the Opera tour", I was 15 and saw them in Sydney in April '76 at the end of the tour. It was utterly phenomenal!!! Freddy had the audience in the palm of his hand, Brian sounded like 3 guitarists in one, what a genius that man is!! And Roger and John just rocked out to the max, it was so electrifying. Have a listen to the concert opener "Now I'm here", another Brian May gem from their third album "Sheer heart attack", czcams.com/video/k3C7CPAAPks/video.html Cheers
Yes White Queen is one of my favs- Freddie puts all his emotions into his singing- this is tearing your soul out of your body!! Play ‘March of the Black Queen”. Body Language is also a different type of Queen@ rather sexual but then it’s rock! Just for fun and watching Freddie with his friends at his 39th birthday party- Freddie pulls out all the stops- fabulous and cheeky !, called Living on my Own@ please check through the videos offered up because some are abstract and poor quality but you can find the clear one@-- cheeky Freddie!💛🍑
Dude, your face scrunched with awed emotions as I hoped it would!!! Anyone who gets this performance just “knows” what they’re being privileged to hear!!
Yeah you’ve got to do march of the black queen. Precursor to bohemian rhapsody. Freddie’s first coming out song.
These guys were the best of their time from the beginning to end. Wholly unique. Learn about Brian’s guitar. It’s unique sound and Freddie’s unique voice made for magic.
Freddie is a one of.
There will never be anyone ever again like him .
