Man I wish I could discover Queen for first time again.
I know! It's truly a experience
Me too!
Who's hyped for the movie
Right!
Great comment!! 👍🏼 Had me laughing hard cause it’s so true!!
I love playing it for kids, just to see their first reaction.
I believe that he never heard this before because his lips didn't move to the words once, it is physically impossible to listen to bohemian rhapsody and not sing along.
James Mcgrath
This is so true! :)
I was honestly looking for that, and I consciously tried to NOT move my lips at all as well, and it is scientific fact that it’s impossible.
James Mcgrath yes you’re a clever guy
Yeah i agree but look at the way he dances, he knows when the rhythm changes..
Ah I think he was just generally bobbing to the song, I personally can't help but go full on 'rock out with my cock out' on the air guitar when the solo kicks in, maybe that's just me.
You know Joey hasn't really heard it, because anyone that has heard Bohemian Rhapsody can't help but sing the lyrics every single time.
shoegazer thats so true
You sho right!
Lmao foreal
I'm guilty and so true
That's true though, if you know the song no way in hell you won't sing along with Queen, it's just not possible.
Can you show us a tour of the rock you live under?
Holy crap. I’ve never had this many likes!
@@aydenlowery9182 That was brilliant
Lmfao
That comment made my day dude! 🤪🤪🤪
🤣 🤣 😂 😂 😂
Can we take a moment to appreciate how much this man likes the song?
I'm on my second vid of dude and I'm like "we besties!"😂 I love this guy!!!
Yes...and take your time...
I'm diggin' that he responds positively to it - it's always been a thrill to me to introduce my favorites to people who've never heard them, especially if they enjoy them!
Agreed! Fuck these negative mfs who seem to believe he's lying.
It's great to see. I like seeing people listening to music they normally wouldn't.
I wish I could hear bohemian rhapsody again for the first time
The Pondering
Me too 😊
Amal Adnan never again
Me too. There's nothing like that first time hearing a song you end up loving.
Same. This song changed my life.
hell yea!!! it`s an " I am your father!" moment^^
I just dont get it, where u lived hearing this fist time ever?
😂😂😂 The Mars.
Wow, so you knew this song? No way! You knew it before?! You must be a genius... Lol
Believe it or not I found about this sing like last week
Y’all have to realize it’s not unusual for a lot of people to not have heard this song. It’s like me askin “how have you not heard ____ by 2pac?!” Just different cultures/music we grew up listing too.
My little sister (20) heard it for the first time this week
It doesnt matter that you havent heard it before - it matters that you have looked it up and were introduced to some great music! :)
Exactly! We should all appeciate that and do the same.
Thank you.
RIP the late Great Freddie Mercury ..forever missed.
I see I am not alone
Renske van Donk absolutely
Freddie Mercury was one of the most skilled and naturally talented vocalists this world has ever seen. Bohemian Rhapsody is a masterpiece to me because the musical and vocal arrangements take you on a journey through so many emotions. Regret, sorrow, rage etc. Brilliant!
What you said.
You wouldn't be saying that if Fred wasn't dead.
Well said
Beautifully said
It's a personal thing. I didn't feel anything
I wish that I could go back and un-hear it so I could listen to it for the first time again.... Freddie Mercury was nothing short of a modern-day music genius..... much like Prince...
Karen Starks I can’t agree more. I wish I could hear songs, read books, watch movies for the first time
It's now possible - go watch Bohemian Rhapsody movie in iMax and be prepared to have your socks rocked. Absolutely fantastic, almost like watching them live
@@Sergei__v indeed. Wonderfull movie. The band aid performance brought tears to my eyes.
Prince had nothing on Freddie
Karen Starks Exactly! Watching Joey’s face almost took me there. I was emotional.
I've heard it a thousand times and each time feels like it's the first one. Goosebumps.
I always get goosebumps when I hear this song, and I heard it first in the 70's when I was in 7th grade. 😊
Hello Thailand Goosebumps and I always cry at the end when he says “nothing really matters anyone can see nothing really matters to me” and then ends with”anywhere the wind blows.” I feel so heartbroken, resigned, and lost. I just break down and cry my heart out. Every single time!
It really is like that, just incredible and legendary. It will define what rock music was in the textbooks 200 years from now
Throw a dart at a list of all Queen songs--it can't go wrong no matter what you pick.
Yup, true story.
dankewillcommen Unless he hits the B-side ”Blurred Vision” haha
"Bicycle" isn't exactly "Bohemian Rhapsody" tho.
.....as long as you leave out 'Hot Space'.......
dankewillcommen I Want to Break Free🤨how about that one, The Video was like.....well..... 😳🤐🤐🤐🤐There’s one part of the lyrics I like. My be another video could had did the job..
it’s strange but it’s true...
I can’t get over the way you love me like you do...
but I have to be sure ....
when I walk out that door 🚪
That was beautiful watching someone hear a masterpiece for the first time, thank you for recording your experience and sharing it with everyone.
Right!
It made me feel like i was listening for the first time and i teared up. Tnx for the experience.
the guitar solo is composed, written by Brian May
I felt so excited to see you listening to Queen for the first time.
Nicole Diaz , I feel the same, looking into his eyes I completely believe him is his first time ... amazing!
Watching you hear these songs for the first time is making me feel like I'm hearing them for the first time again. Freddie Mercury is simply the greatest of all time. His range, his charisma, his showmanship can never be rivaled. Queen banged out so many hits and it's great to see people from all walks of life loving and appreciating their music. It is a great feeling when you discover music that is amazing. Put a smile on my face
Nathan Chandler agreed! I was born in 1984. Queen and ABBA and J.S. Bach, that was my first music. And I keep returning to them over the decades.
Nah Chief Keef the best and the freddie Mercury
Can we agree that it’s impossible he hasn’t heard this song ? Impossible.
@@rodleypumpkins4174 it's *entirely* possible. I'm in chat with a black workmate right now that I sent this vid to, he says he's heard bits of the song in movies but never actually listened to it. Him just now: "omg this is killing me. I swear i thought Bohemian Rhapsody STARTS at basically half way through this video!"
There are a millionty famous, benchmark rap/hip-hop songs that I've never heard of... entire benchmark rap/hip-hop groups I've never heard of. It's an excellent example of how we live in separate worlds and the same one, at the same time.
Checkout my queen reactions
Freddie was probably the best vocalist ever. He was able to sing in three octaves and you won't find that today. He was a great songwriter and performer. Queen made an impression whenever they played.
You can definitely find that today. Brendon Urie with Panic! At The Disco sings in 4 octaves and I believe 6 or 7 notes.
I'll have to check him out! Freddie baffled scientists(granted that's not always hard to do) by his ability. They actually did a study on him. Makes you wonder who paid for all that. What I should have said was that people like him are a rarity. Some of today "greats" just don't compare.
Yeah, I'm not trying to downplay Freddie at all! He's a legend for a reason, I'm just throwing out there that Brendon Urie is known for being one of today's greatest vocalists. I heard somewhere he can reach into 6 octaves a little bit but I haven't looked into it.
Jack Hayes lol right I was abt to comment brendon urie
Michael Marano check out Dimash Kudaibergen) His vocal range is crazy. You can watch his version of All by myself ( Singer 2017).
How?!?!?! Have you never heard this song?!?!?
This was like watching an angel receive it's wings.
Beautifully said.
your god damn right
Shock don’t generalise a whole number people. It can cause trouble
*This Is London*
ua-cam.com/video/AIn2qmUIX0k/v-deo.html
I made a parody with a message in it. Powerful hidden meanings and little hint of humor and if you're down with *This Is America* then you will love my Parody.
My parody video is so close to this is America you would think it was the blueprint. If you don't understand here's another clue for you look at the date when it was uploaded and published.
Shock idiots like you cause trouble for saying most black people don’t listen to queen. Do you have to say such a thing
This is why you have to reach out and experience different genres and generations. You never know how something different might hit you.
Thomas Russell right I love Queen , Prince , David Bowie , Bon Jovi, MJ and so many more
Actually in this song there are a lot of genres like acapella,rock,ballad, and it also has opera ! . Maybe thats the reason why almost everyone love this song cause it has like complete set of genres
Thomas, some of us do not experience that bit of knowledge until late. But it was pure joy seeing someone discover a great piece of music. For this reason, I'm glad that Hip Hop did/does employ samples because you get to go back and discover some "before your time" masterpieces...
Never thought i'd hear someone go "like damn WoOOOoaH bro shit" to music from Queen😂
Another One Bites The Dust!
who wouldnt?
:3
"another one bites the dust " this comment was sparkling!
lmao this song will make u do it
@@CrownFamilyHQHa so true
Came for the reaction stayed for QUEEN
I'm so glad you appreciate good music bro.
Anna Kcmb checkout my queen reactions
JayveeTV no one cares
I remember once in high school, I was talking about music I liked and when I mentioned Queen as one of my favorite bands, someone asked “who’s Queen?” I asked her if she’d ever heard Bohemian Rhapsody, she said no. This surprised me as I was sure most people have heard Bohemian Rhapsody at least once.
To prove my point, I started singing
“Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?”
And a random stranger behind me joined in, singing
“Caught in a landslide, no escape from reality.”
Made my day.
When I was a kid, I only listened to AM radio. In high school (around 1980) I heard some friends talking about The Doors, and I asked if that was short for The Commodores. 😂
I hope that stranger is your friend now 😂 you know, Queen connects
you should have said we will we will rock you everyone has heard that
And then then the entire McDonald's staff clapped.
Finally someone bothering to listen to the great song uninterrupted instead of pressing pause button multiple times making the show all about him! Great thanks! Good video!
Big Daddy Damon Macready people do that bc of copyright issues
@@WahTzH3k no they don't all the reactors I've seen before this stop because they get thrown or start laughing at the lyrics because they don't understand them, which misses the whole point of the song, God on him for kicking back and just enjoying it
Marius Møller many do pause for copyright issues tho, you have to pause every 30 sec or something like that
I hear ya that shit really pisses me off thought I was the only one lol
please proceed to 1:34.
"Hey guys! I'm going to try *air* for the first time! Is that how you pronounce it? 'Aaayeer'?. Whatever let's go"
*Takes a breath
"Holy shit bra this is crazy. It's like inside of me and shit. What the hell? Yo this is sick!"
Aaayrer lmfao
"And it's going in and out of my nose and mouth. This is nice. I like it."
Ded
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lmao
I believe this guy. Because i cant listen to queen without singing.
Momonja he also did not head bang when appropriate... 😂
100% true I catch my self singing to any queen song when it comes on even though I don’t mean too
Especially the choral section haha
"Because you can't" it must be true? Whahahahaaaaaa! You sure as hell are no lawyer!
so true
When you’ve heard a song so many times it was fun to watch it with someone experiencing it for the first time!
You're cute
Or when you've listened to the song enough to know all the lyrics
Totally!
You honestly believe at his age he’s never heard this song before? He’s the same age as me, this song was massive years ago, there’s absolutely no way he hasn’t heard it before.
Yes. What do you care. He has. Has not. Time still passes.
Queen is Dope .. And yes im black. Respect good music 🎶
King Good music is good music is good music.
Exactly. On both sides. We gotta stop the hate & fighting each other espeacialy those who make the attempt to be friendly
Check out Supertramp Breakfast in America
I love Queen and I'm Black as well. I grew up in the 60/70s and the music was SO GOOD! It's nice to see younger generations enjoy this music.
Ok...
Blows your mind to think that guitarist is an astrophysicist, too. Doesn't it?
Madame Raven he’s the chancellor of the University of England? U of London?
Yep Brian May CBE with a PHD in Astrophysics
And that makes him even more awesome
REALLY?! That's awesome!!
Well, his playing is out of this world...
Every time I listen to queen I'm happy AND sad. Grateful that we had a band like this and sad knowing that we'll never have another band like this. I'm far from being the biggest fan of queen but I still appreciate that we'll never experience music like this again with it's raw and unhindered emotion. I also really appreciate your reaction video, it's not easy to find people who haven't heard it before so to see someone listening to it for the first time is nice.
I got to see a first reaction of Rhapsody, from my 15yr old son....my heart is full! He's playing guitar now, influences- Queen, Bowie, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Syd Barrett..Johnny Cash...and he rips! Proud mama here!
Hands down Freddie Mercury was and is the greatest rock vocalist of all time.
Apart form me
Have you guys heard of Alex Hughes? He rocks harder than Freddy.....
S Powell you must be kidding are you sure you know who Freddie Mercury is there is no comparison between the two.🤘
Yes....im kidding.....never heard freddy mercury
Steve Perry
Everyone saying there's no way he hasn't heard it before, he definitely hasn't. You can't hear Bohemian Rhapsody and not sing along if you've heard it before. It's not possible.
True
So true! And every single word too.
Facts
Good point..and i dont know if he has or not...AND...also i'd counter that with how hard it would be to nod your head to the different stylistic transitions in this song..is that possible to do the first time you hear it?? Think about the first time you listen to a song..even one that is consistent rhythmically and predictable it is still hard to nod to the beat...so to do that one the FIRST time listening to this song, if it is the first time well that is freaking impressive...Ill give him the benefit of the doubt though. Just wanted to see what your opinion on that is because you make a good point.
I had never heard hot cross buns until I was in my 50's. So believe it. It made me wonder had I walked out of elementary classes right when everyone was learning it, or when the music was being played. Smdh! Honest I never heard it until I was in my 50s.
Hands down....one of the greatest and most unique, I might add, rock bands of the 70's / 80's. To this day, they're still untouchable! Queen is simply amazing! Wait until you hear the other albums. 😉
This is why it's called "Classic Rock" people will remember this music for years!
It is SO NICE to see the younger generations appreciating the great music we grew up to. Heatwarming. Poignant. Bless you, Crown!
One of the best songs ever made. EVER.
Agreed, top 10 no question about it
Fun fact. The line _"Scaramouche,_ _Scaramouche_ _can_ _you_ _do_ _the_ _fandango."_ Referrers to a type of marinette puppet with an extendable neck. These puppets were used for slapstick humor they were often villainized and then beaten until their head popped off their body like a rockem sockem robot. Fandango is a Spanish folk dance between two or more people, it can also mean a foolish or useless act.
It makes the song all the more meaningful that when he wrote it he was dieing of AIDS. From what I assume he thought was foolish actions. His regret and fatalism is rapped up beautifully in a kind of dark twisted humor and nonchalant nihilism.
@@mathewhill5556 Bohemian Rhapsody was released in 1975 and Freddie wasn't diagnosed with HIV or AIDS until 1987 and died in 91. But I like where you were going with the narrative. Look more at the character the song surrounds who was on trial.
It’s certainly up there, it really is the jewel in queens crown.
+mathew hill
G'day,
Ah, nope..., it isn't possible for anybody to have been dying of AIDS while they were writing Bohemian Rhapsody...; that's chronologically impossible.
I was listening to Bohemian Rhapsody in (I think) 1977..., when I was a teenager in Boarding-School (& dating it by which Dormitory I was in when I first heard the song..!) ; whereas when Time Magazine first published the story of Aquired Human Immunodefficiency Syndrome ("AIDS") it was in late 1983 and they had not yet discovered the Human Immunodefficiency Virus ("HIV")..., but that was what they thought they were looking for....
In 1983 when the AIDS story broke, about the Gay Airline Steward shagging his way all around the World and the spread of AIDS being monitored by watching Caposi's Sarcoma spreading first among California's Gays and then appearing Globally..., I was a 3rd-year Student Nurse working at a Sydney Hospital whereinat 1/2 the Nursing staff were male (as I am) & 1/2 the Nursing staff were Gay (as I'm not), and there were some Bisexuals from both "Sides" who were playing for both "Teams" ; and I can vividly remember realising that the days of "Free Love" were over, because from then on in - Sexual Promuscuity meant risking a (then) untreatable and fatal Virus...
Most of the Gay men that I worked with, and trained with, are long-since dead...; but the big Die-off didn't begin till about 1984 or '85, and by '86 the Gays & the Needle-Drug Junkies were dying like Flies.
But, none of that was happening in 1977 - let alone in '76 when 'Rhapsody was written.
Just(ifiably ?) sayin',
Take it easy...
;-p
Ciao !
Maybe you know the guitarist Brian May is also an Astrophysicist
Hard Drive Recording all we’re/are geniuses!! John Deacon the bassist was an electronics engineer and the drummer, Roger Taylor,
Was a dentist. Freddie got his degree in art and design. He would’ve been a graphic illustrator had he not been famous as a singer. How many bands do you know with college degrees when many of them don’t even finish high school.
Oui et le batteur un dentiste.
Queen was one of the GREATEST ROCK BANDS of all time!!! Freddie ' s voice, each member of the Band were so talented , the transitions, orchestra. ..Awesomeness! !!! 💖 ✌
Specializing in interplanetary dust. Later helped with NASA and the satellite that went to Pluto (can't remember the name). Animal rights activist and started a charity to prevent animal cruelty. Vegetarian. Honestly, most proper fans know this stuff, pretty basic. Also Roger studied dental stuff in uni but was never a dentist. You literally have to watch the film once to know he's an astrophysicist.
Hard Drive Recording brian is legit my father I love him so damned much
A few years ago a guy I work with admitted he hadn't heard Bohemian Rhapsody. At the pub, while 10 colleagues were around him, very drunk. We sang the entire song to him from start to finish and he was unable to escape.
That should be construed as torture under the Geneva Convention.
that should be construed as rewards to any convention, bohemian rhapsody doesnt classify as torture mate
If that really happened, that sounds awesome!
It took a few days for me to get my voice back but it's my favourite memory with those colleagues
I agree, when it's played by Queen and sung by Freddie Mercury, but sung by a load of drunk blokes, ... that would be torture!
Forgive me for I am about to tell two lies. Freddy Mercury probably had the greatest voice in rock history and he was probably the best front man in rock history. Now take the two "probablys" out and you have the truth.
Prince or Freddy, having seen both live.
Corey Dean i agree!!! Top Best voice of rock history.
The real life movie is coming out soon called Bohemian Rapsady.
Freddie

- “This is fire.”
Bill Gates lmao
I just liked this comment because of your profile picture 😂
Listening for thousandth time. Still get the same reaction.
right! goose bumps and shivers everytime
Lol me too man
I've watched 10 videos of you discovering great music. Your reactions make me jealous in some way that I can't have that fresh discovery experience. I'm 58 & I'm having this is the last time more than this is the first time experience. I've LIKED all your vids. Enjoy your journey of discovery you lucky guy 💖💖💖
I'm on the same timeline as you. As powerful as listening to all these songs for the the first time, they have been part of my life for decades. I feel very lucky.
On that subject I have not listened to any Beatles LPs I keep meaning to and I'm 53 ,a whole undiscovered treasure awaits I'm sure.
We should find out what he used to thinks he liked and listen to that for discovery
@@peterclegg2609 Oh you must do this, sir. You're in for a real treat for sure.
At first I felt the same about his reactions, but then I remembered, having grown up in a rock and disco world, what it was like to join the Army and be exposed to different sub cultures of hip-hop from my roommate in the 90's. Because of this channel I now make it a point to reach out at least once a week to discover something new in music I have never heard before, often exploring other genres of music I would otherwise never consider. The trick as I have learned from watching this channel, is to open your mind and consider for a moment that all music is good, if you just give it a real chance.
I believe you, Brother Joey. Much props and love from an old Queen fan.
thank you!
Whew! Finally! The last human being on Earth that hasn't heard this song. LOL!
Hahahaha you are right pal!!! Hope he was born deaf and miraculously regain his hearing somehow recently ! This is only excuse for him!!!
@@jaronffc7926 Bahaha! LMAO!
What about Our 10,000 covicts who havent had access to a computer since they were made
@@conormchugh2028 fuck them!!
What about all the babies that have not heard it and the babies after that and such
Wow it's 2018 and now we found the only living person over 20 that had never heard this song. Your reactions are priceless, good video man !! Basically the same as I had back in 1975. Rock on Joey !
I have listened to this song since I was born. I swear I even knew it before I came out of the womb.
I guarantee you that he's not the only person on the planet.
I heard this song first time in primary school, once, in music class. I was really confused, and had no way to listen to it again. Then I travelled around the world and heard pieces and bits of it here an there, but only lately at the age of 37 I had the opportunity to sit down and listne to this from start to end. I now understand why it was brought up in primary school as an important piece.
Freddie Mercury, the Messenger of the Gods is my favorite vocalist and I've loved Queen since childhood. My brothers bought their albums and played them constantly along with The Jackson 5, The Temptations and The Beatles. Freddie's voice is Heaven sent and Magical in every way. (Mercury means Messenger of the Gods).
Love the fact you’ve never heard this before- you re-light the beauty in this song...I don’t go a day without hearing queen..was nice to hear it with you thanks...
I'm looking forward to watching your reactions to this awesome music.
Friend: I don't like queen
Me: BURN THE WITCH!!
MAMA JUST KILLED A MAN
@@walterhartwellwhite9264 that man probably didn't like queen 😂so probably justified
@Richie Hernández "Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like... eh... your opinion, man."
Two words- Under Pressure. Freddie Mercury and David Bowie at their best.
They have an entire album of that stuff locked away! One of my top 10 unreleased albums i need to hear
That was the best combo in history
Nice pfp
Oh please no one can deny "We Are The Champions" my friends
No
This is why it's great to explore all genres of music. You miss out on so much good stuff when you only allow yourself to listen to one type. Good music transcends all races, cultures and nationalities. Freddie will live on forever!
Them Crazy Kids! Well said
Good music cure more peoples in the world then any faith healers but most peoples don't know that...
Romeo Lachapelle what does that mean?
@@huejass9130 each good song or tune you enjoy is a natural homeopatic moment...
Music also transcends Generations
Freddie was taken way too early from the world. I have wondered what music would have been like with him jimmy hendrix, lennon and others would be like to day.
Keith Lavelle I wonder about Jim Morrison too. What would another album from him sound like.
As much I would hope I am wrong about this.. I don't think the music business would be a whole lot different. I think these great artists (as they were) would unfortunately be obsolete in today's "gimmick" music business. It's all about what sells over quality. Look at Gangham Style...super hot flash in the pan. Haven't heard from that guy since but it made millions fast. Drake has been doing the same song for more than 5 or 6 years now but it sells so they keep pushing it. It's all about style over substance today.
@@bonusbaby801 I see what you're saying, and this is true for a lot of artists but I truly believe guys like Freddie, Lennon and Hendrix wouldn't fall into that category, they were all way too influential and prolific to become obsolete. Take Lennon for example, I mean, he was in the biggest band on the planet, and looking at Pauls lengthy career (which he still is going strong).. I would predict Lennon to have similar success. This is only my opinion of course, hard to predict exactly how it would go down for each individual, it's interesting to think about though. One thing is for sure, the music they left us with, has stood the test of time = timeless. ✌
@@shanefeeney3748...timeless...EXACTLY. Some 50 yrs later & we are STILL listening to the Beatles & such. I don't think 50 some odd yrs from now people will still be talking about Drake, Future, One Direction, etc. like we talk about the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson...Many Beatles songs are still relevant to what's going on RIGHT NOW. Supertramp's "Logical Song" could describe a ton of people today. It's literally scary to listen to "Land Of Confusion" by Genesis because it is so spot on. Today's music is about today. In 50+ yrs will we care about bitches & hoes & blinged out grills?
The world will never get a Freddie/Prince collab and that's terrible.
“ Beautiful vocals.” Got that right!
Now you should hear "don't stop me now"
I approve and whole heartedly agree with this message. It is one of my favorite Queen songs
Jesus this song made me so hype when driving.
Why do people like that song? Because of bloody Top Gear. One of their worst. Best driving song my arse. Put Flash Gordon on instead. Just my humble opinion.
@@Badrobot1500 what? This song is all about "I'm gonna rock the world" it is also a master piece
He might not be ready for Don’t Stop me Now. That’s more advanced Queen. Diving straight into bohemian rhapsody was a brave move though. He should check out something more entry level like “we are the champions”
First time I listened to Bohemian Rhapsody I thought it was a choir then a few years later after puberty I realized that Freddie was just doing his magic.
How does it feel to hear this godly masterpiece for the first time 😮 I'm jealous
It feels great! When I heard it for the first time, I memorized it that night.
@@austinacl02 lol I remember I was in the car with some friends and didnt know the lyrics while they jamed out around me :( memorized the lyrics the next day lol
Was going to post the same thing.
Must be amazing to hear this for the very first time wow....but how in da hell did you manage not to hear it this long?!!!!!!!!!!!!
I enjoyed watching you enjoy Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody for the first time.😘
Two choices: Queen at Live Aid. Twenty minute gig in 1985 where they owned the world. More than 30 years later and it is still, consistently, voted/considered the greatest live performance of all time. Or (both?) "Somebody to Love," live. Either in Montreal or (my favorite version) live at the Bowl.
bbbfst
yea..this is the one to watch!!
Amen to the Live Aid gig! Stole the show from the biggest acts in the world.
I was 25 when Queen performed at Live Aid......Every now and then I still feel the need to re-watch .....easily the best set from both sides of the Atlantic.
when the movie
Boheniam raphsody came out
OMG I ♥️♥️ FREDDIE HE'S MY FAV SINGER
I'm 69 ,when I was young people liked Sammy Davies jnr.i didn't get him now I listen to him and watch him sing Mr bojangles and realise what a great singer and dancer and showman he was
Yeah even though I'm 16 I think he's amazing
Listen to.more Queen...one of a kind. He had a gift of 4 extra octaves in his voice. Very.rare...his range was amazing. All his songs were all out amazing...
Freddie even did opera. His vocal abilities were super human.
Nobody can beat Freddie Mercury and nobody will ever be that good
MargaretAnn Stewart _______ Queen is a band not a "he". Mercury did not have a four octave range. The whole band sang on their records. The drummer did all the very high stuff. Also, all the members of Queen wrote songs. Some of the most famous ones were written by the bass player John Deacon.
Burlats de Montaigne - Mercury did have 4 octaves
And no mention of Roger Taylor's high B♭? (Yes I'm blessed/cursed with perfect pitch.)
Love the way he was enthralled as he tried to process all the genius happening in this all-time classic. You could see it in his eyes. Cool.
Even when its peoples first time listening they know the exact point to start bopping their head!
Love to watch an open mind discover things.
This song is a rock opera.
Christopher Blalock - Werd. Now he should check out JCSS. ;)
YES ! There was quite a bit of Rock Opera back in the 70's! The Who, JCSS, QUEEN Bohemian Rhapsody Etc.
Dici bene...opera!bravo!
Open mind? this guy HAS NO MIND!
samie mccarty
Masterpiece. Genius. Heard it many times but each time feels like the first. Goosebumps. Watching your reactions was great :))
Juliette York Same! I was super excited for him to hear the first transition because he had NO IDEA it was coming! What a treat!

If someone told me one day I’d subscribe to a channel of someone listening to music I’d have said they’re nuts. Never say never 😂
The thing I like about these videos is that at the start, you can tell they're just trying to be nice and pretend that they like it, when they really just think its all right. Then the operatic part kicks in, and they're like "wait what, this is fucking amazing!" and then the hard rock comes in and they're minds get blown, lol.
This song is a masterpiece. Its hard to go wrong with Queen, so many hits, so many styles and so many songs you will know
You’ve surely heard of Queen? The songs We Will Rock You, We Are The Champions, Another One Bites The Dust?
People could have heard those songs and not know "Queen"
Braveheart Physique fat bottom girls?
Definitely didn't realize who it was because Queen's songs are everywhere
Another One Bites the Dust is in the genre of funk. Definitely worth a listen!
Braveheart Physique
Another bites the dust was my shit back in the day!!! Loved it!
That song can evoke so many emotions Just amazing!
FREDDY:) Freddie was a genius👍🙏❤️️.
So very true ladyrose358
For fuck sakes it's "Freddie"
The first time I heard Bohemian Rhapsody was when I was 6 years old in 1975 growing up in North Wembley, London, England. I loved it back then, and I will love it till the day I die (hopefully many, many decades from now). Everyone should hear Bohemian Rhapsody once before they die.
This is a masterpiece. It's really rare to actually see someone who has never heard this. Nice!
he has heard it it´s just fucked up clickbait like all of youtube is atm.
It really is not hard to understand how it has not been heard by the young people now. It is not their kind of music they would seek out. I applaud this channel for bridging the gap....it is a huuuuge gap too. Generational as well as ethniticity. Good job man! There is SOME music that crosses ALL bridges and needs to remain for all to hear. This is truly a bad ass tune...I've been listening to it for since it's inception. RIP Freddy!
To be honest I have never heard the song either until a few years ago. Of course some 7 seconds are familiar since they were used in some movie or something, but thats basically it.
Yeah he's fucking with ya man. dis dude's a phony ass joke
Tbf I had to introduce my partner to the song for the first time last year
He was head banging at the same time they do in the movie Wayne's World. Love his reaction.
Gale Memee of 6 that’s the only way to do it amirite? Party on man🤙🏼
This was when vocals were real! No auto tune. Just raw talent. I was lucky enough to see Queen twice in concert. There will never be another Freddie Mercury as far as I'm concerned. Sadly, I think of him very November. He passed on my birthday. I light a candle for him and set him up with a glass of wine or beer. I don't think he's every drank any of it, but it's my tip of the hat to a legend gone to soon.
When I heard Bohemian Rhapsody for the first it was 1976 my mom was driving a Chevy Nova we're in sunny San Diego I was 9.. The song came on and I just sat there relaxed, all buckled in. All then the heavy metal guitar exploded and my mind went crazy!! I fell in love with rock on that day! And Queen was the cause.. LedZep KISS Ozzy VH AC/DC many many more I can't remember but Queen is only group I credit for bringing me into the mind of rock.
Dee S Some great bands. Don’t forget Areosmith.
Very poetic
You took me back with your description!
FIRST TIME STEPPING ON A LEGO (offical Lego) REACTION
DONT PAUSE THE BEST ROCK SONG IN HISTORY
Not the Best Rock song in History but the the Best Song Ever Written
Nah, A day in the life
@Scott ?????? Bohemean Rhapsody is more popular than all Led Zeppelin songs combined
dane matthew you must be talking about hotel california then?
@Scott ?????? Bohemean Rhapsody has more views than all led zeppelin songs
ha he didnt even mention how long the song was.. thats because its sooooo Greattttt!
It goes on forever, six bloody minutes!?!? I pity your wife if you think six minutes is forever.
OK calm down. It's not the fucking movie. Chill
Mr. Anonymous its a reference whats are u talking about its chill af.
Andrea Lovelace it never feels like a six minute song. Queen is so amazing 😊
@@rowanthomas9181 exactly!! you just get lost in it!
First time listening to Queen. You lucky lucky person. I'm going to Montreux in Switzerland next year to see his statue
I have to thank this guy for hanging in for the whole song! This song is such a reminder that people dont take risks like this in music any more.
This was a fantastic song - but impossible to dance to at school discos.....and it stayed at no 1 for about 4 months...
Some songs just weren't made for dancing:)
Not true on going number one. In fact, i don't think this song ever cracked the top ten-well it did, getting to 9th initially. But it was on the fringe for a long time, like almost a full year. Wound up being much higher for the year than at any point during the year. Weird huh!?
@@MrSurferjer it was no 1 in the states and no 5 uk charts in 1975
It really wasn't in the US. It peaked at #9 originally. However, after Wane's World it repeated at #2 17 years later. Look it up
I miss Freddy. Talent like that doesn't come along very often.
usernametaken 56 once every Big Bang or so
Freddy maybe gone but his legacy n his music are imortal
It will never happen again..
He was gone too soon too fast but will always be a legend!!
Helny Novianty uh his friends call him Freddy duh. Ha ha
I wish I could go back and listen to Bohemian Rhapsody with virgin ears. I think the first time I really listened to this song was when my friend had the CD when Wayne’s world Trailer came out, then of course Wayne’s World totally killed it with the scene in the car where they are singing the song. It was so good in fact now When I hear the song my mind Igoes straight to that scene.
There is one thing that would make my life just... and that would be to have a time machine (travel future, past and present) so I could go back and be in the recording studio when stuff like this was being written, just watch the glorious work unfold to creat something so astronomical. :D and then hearing them record it completely to perfection!!!! Froth every day over this thought :D
😂 same
Yep, my 15 year old never gets it
Need too. I was watching Wayne's world and was like WHO IS THIS!!
I grew up with that music love to see you checking it out, thats real raw emotion
This guy almost cried!! (Hey I don't blame him!)
when? i didnt catch that vibe from.him
i swear someone is always cutting an onion somewhere when this song comes on
of course a sane person finds this sad and dislikes it, but then sanity was gradually phased out, and what we have today is mainstream utter madness
A HUGE smile came over my face when you said this was so beautiful. I first heard this around about Christmas time 1975. I was 11 years old. I had been given a board game "Escape from Colditz" and was playing it with my friend from next door in his house.. and this came on the radio. We stopped what we were doing and just listened... we just looked at each other and said "wowwwwww"............ that was it. Hooked on the music of Queen. BR was accompanied by the first "true" pop video and used amazong "computer graphics" (a new term at the time) to enhance the music.
The lead singer, one Frederick Bulsaris (Freddie Mercury) died of an Aids related illness, but the other members of the band are still going strong and are still gigging, albeit sporadically.
An interesting thing. Queen are the only band in the world that has had every one of it's members write a British number one!
This list is NOT exhaustive:
Mercury. Bohemian Rhapsody.
May. We Will Rock You.
Deacon. Another One Bites The Dust.
Taylor. Radio Ga Ga.
i like how you remember the first time hearing this as a kid. how sweet
I was a similar age and first heard it on the radio while playing outside with a friend. We also stopped dead in our tracks to listen to this “Oh my god! Who is this?” song. It was (and still is) absolutely breathtaking.
I heard all of those songs except the last one.
Escape from Colditz is experiencing a revival, too.
The beauty of this song is that it's an entire rock concert in a 7 minute song! Who does that? Will we ever again have a musical age like what the 60s and 70s brought?

Ok so maybe I went a little overboard with that but listen to some at least. Great band. Also it’s taking every ounce of restraint not to explode with a thousand other band recommendations but if you truly want them reply because boy do I have music for you😏
BeN_BuCk To0 Seven seas of Rhye too!
Polly Pink[floyd] true that! Good song
BeN_BuCk To0 checkout my queen reactions
Did you see the movie? It will give you a huge respect for them as musicians.
Fresh Fire - Those guys were such a great compliment to one another. Brilliant work.
Movie was good but it doesn't really depict the truth it's a movie and they changed things to make it a movie they didn't do his legend justice IMO
Jimmy Hatson they couldn’t get the whole story of queen in 2 hours.Its as accurate as possible as the remaining member of queen helped with this movie.
@@rennarice3623 not accurate per se seen as the timeline is completely fucked. For example Freddie new Brian may, Roger Taylor and smiles lead singer for years through art school and even lived with them for a while. And the movie claims we will rock you was wrote before the show in Madison Square however it was wrote years ago and was even on an album. In fact Freddie didn't even have his mustache when they wrote it. However it was great nontheless
iS tH1s l0Ss that is correct,but the movie is as accurate as possible.They sped it up that way they could fit the story in a movie
Why do people find it amazing that black people would listen to classic rock. Who cares. Id feel the same way if a long haired white dude that fits the heavy metal image listening to hip hop.
Research who created "Rock, Classic Rock" lol. Many Blacks listen to Classic Rock, Rock in general.
Then no one cares about your long haird White thing either. Right back at you!
@@tobbywolves why don't you shut up and take off that Cowboy's helmet. You are not worthy to wear the star. I know what you meant so I commented on it and I hit the nail on the head because of your reaction, I'd say you are mad because nobody cares about your stupid words of wisdom you dumb Cowboy. I helped you by replying to your comment because I felt sorry for you. Cowboy BS. Get out of my face.
Tobbywolves Hahaha. More like 'Tobby the loner'. You should stick with Tobbywolf instead because it's referring to one. You put Tobbywolves like its more than one and you run in a pack. You know nobody likes Your ass or for that matter runs with you. Loner.
@Ur Waifu is Shit it sure seems that way. In the 70s and 80s I listen mainly to a mixture of music. I was more into Rock and all that. I also started liking Motown and R&B. And I have favorite songs in those categories. I like the 80s Rap but not Rap that people are into today.
It's lonely sometimes being a black chick that loves classic rock, country and metal music. I'm that black person in the family that, according to them, like "white people" stuff and music, lol. Thanks for making me less alone, Joey, lol! Have you reacted to any country music yet? I'm a Big & Rich fan. I'd love to see you react to "Save A Horse, Ride a Cowboy" or "Rollin". "Rollin" starts with, "Brothers & Sisters, we're here for one reason and one reason alone. To share our love of music. I present to you, country music without prejudice!" It's fucking awesome!
I'm black too and I consume all that. I'm from Cuba even harder haha
Girl blk folks created rock...lol.
The only sad part is that you aren't being accepted for being yourself.
Chrystle Ayer u ain't alone Try being the black girl into NASCAR , hockey & bull riding along with all of what you said ( sometimes we have to start a trend no one else will follow keep ur head up sis if we don't let them know we will never grow
Music has no color.
AWESOME BRO, TEXAS HERE, I SAW QUEEN TWICE BOTH IN SAD DIEGO , YEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAA
This song is why stereo headphones we're created.
Wrong. That would be Dark Side of the Moon.
Both wrong: that accolade undeniably goes to Sgt Pepper - the very first pop/rock album to use the full range of studio technology as an additional instrumental palette. Good though BoRhap and DSoTM are, they were merely progressing what George Martin set in motion with The Beatles a few years earlier.
Exactly - The Beatles - Number 9. Caution: not advisable for first timer trippers....just saying...
Doobie Brothers..Black Water. Listen to it with some good quality headphones. Another good one for the list.
@@user-sb1vz9pv5y , good choice but have you listened to pink floyds Ummagumma or Animals album on headphones. Mind blowing!
QUEEN is amazing
Freddie sang all the harmonies for the beginning of this song. Talk about vocal range!
i just found that out not to long ago.. i was blown away! so talented
Any note he can hit! Even when he was doing Barcelona.
not every note, long top notes freddy had a problem with that why in Bohemian Rhaspody, they are done by Roger Taylor the drummer as Brian May explains in the Life of Bohemian Rhaspody Video.
But Freddie had one of the most impressive vocal ranges ever by a singer
@@Dazfos have you ever heard of Brendon Urie
(That's a legitimate question it kinda sounds rude in my head)
@@joyahbarnes6138 Brendan Urie has a good range but i think Freddie had a much more powerful voice
I heard this song for the first time when I was 14 years old in 2004 😁 Instant classic.
I heard this song so many times when I was a kid. xD
Yeah it was...in 1975
Are you saying you think this song came out in 2004?? It came out in ‘75
@@gracemiller5381 no she sayin that 2004 was the first time she heard it not that it came out in 2004😂😂😂😂🤣
Haha I was born in 2004 and I’m 14 and I’ve been listening to this since I was 5
How could anyone not love this work of art. Freddie Mercury, Brian May, John Deacon, Roger Taylor. Real talent without any altering to the voices and a true band playing their on Instruments.
I was crying, because this music is a masterpiece. Is forever!
This song is an entire opera in one song... it is without doubt one of the all time classic pop songs of all time..
there are many... for some reason this ONE sticks into people's heart and head... you lucky man to never have heard it before ...
Queen was never pop, it was all rock, never forget that since Freddie Mercury was the god of rock. Bohemian Rhapsody was classical rock.
How the hell haven't you heard of bohemian rhapsody every one on this planet has heard this song
No, not everyone, and it's very narrow to think so.
This planet and possibly some others by now.
No way man, not everyone, I have a friend from Los Angeles, he's 28 years old right now, and he hardly ever known about queen
He's a young man
It was impressive that Joey noticed on his first listen that the "Mama / Just killed a man..." part is the key to understanding the rest of the song. Took me several listens to pick up on that, distracted as I was by how much is going on in the song musically.
The thing I got when he reacted the way did was "Oh yeah, Tupac did something similar" and it's just a general thing that happened on the rap/r&b scene for a while. Tech N9ne also talks in length about his mother, especially in Oh Yeah which is also weirdly operatic in a more Gothic sense.
It's ultimately funny how we grip onto different things just because we're more or less exposed to them.
Yup, I also thought perhaps he was relating it to similar rap lyrics, but this is the first Joey Reacts video I've seen, so I didn't want to assume he must be a rap fan. It may or may not have been an influence, but I can't help but be reminded of Camus' "The Stranger", which of course directly inspired The Cure's "Killing an Arab" (often misunderstood as a racist song).
(Also, in high school, at which point I hadn't yet heard "Bohemian Rhapsody", I wrote a poem told from a similar point-of-view of someone who's just shot somebody in the head, isn't sure if it really just happened, and isn't sure how to feel about it. I actually still kinda like it.)
This song is life philosophy for those how feel every single note. I can't skip this song, I can't evade sing it every time.
Same with stairway to heaven
Both if these songs are masterpieces.
Honestly one of the best reacts I've seen. On a first time listen you followed every beat, felt every mood of this epic. You've got one more subscriber.
Yeah we need more talented reacts. How did he do it? Its like he reacted? Like how every human reacts to the environment they are in naturally. So much talent, I wish I knew how to react
bustamove orelse I get the sarcasm, but if you watch most react videos people just play the video, and at the end say “wow, that was fire, like and subscribe. Bye”
@@yuoma well I think all react channels are dumb. He's literally doing nothing and you're all praising as if he has some special talent. It's lazy and dumb and I don't know what kind of mind you have to have to find this entertaining
bustamove orelse you just described meme culture.
@@yuoma how so? A lot of memes arent funny repetitive but can also be creative and funny. React videos are almost never that. The comparison is not strong
