George did this amazing performance knowing that his partner had also been diagnosed with aids. Sadly Anselmo also passed away. This performance always gets me in the feels too 💕
Absolutely phenomenal performance. George Michael was a masterclass singer. You should check out his live performance of Don’t Let the Sun Go Down On Me with Elton John. George did Freddy proud!! Thanks for reacting to this one!!
George's MTV unplugged session from 96 is out of this world as are all of George's live performances 💜
The bit that really gets to me is Brian's smile of approval after George hit that high note and engaged the audience.
George Michael was such an amazing vocalist.
I recently watched interviews with George and Seal prior to performing in the tribute and they were absolutely terrified to take on Queen songs. They all did an amazing job honoring the great Freddie Mercury. Look at what it took to re-create the vocal power of Freddie. The legendary George Michael, back-up singers and a chorus. All lovely additions, but Queen never had to enhance their songs, it was just four guys harmonizing magically together. Freddie actually wrote this song about Aretha Franklin whom he adored. So if you know a little bit about her private life(a lot of heartache) and coming up in the music biz, then the lyrics are very poignant. Check out “Somebody to Love” live at Montreal 1981. Amazing! Also, check out Queen’s early 70’s music, nothing like their 80’s, 90’s songs. After all, it was the glam rock era. So many great songs, I particularly like “Liar”, the live video especially.
For me, it’s George Michael’s fist pump and spin after the audience sings back “loooooooooooove” AND more so, Brian’s smile. 🥹 Brian had almost no smiles on his face that day, and that smile is what kills me (brings me to tears) every single time. You can see the thought on his face, “THAT made Freddie smile”.
This is George’s best and most bittersweet performance. Look up the rehearsal. It is at least AS good!!
When he performed this he’d just found out his partner had been diagnosed with AIDS. Anselmo was there watching him. Which added to the emotional weight of this moment.
Now they’re all gone. I miss George every day.
The best tribute song to Freddue EVER!!! Thanks for watching!!
George Michael!!! Miss him so much!!
We didn't know how hard loosing Freddie was on John Deacon and it now breaks my heart to watch him, because now I can see that he's hurting terribly. This Tribute to Freddie is brilliant and very sad at the same time. 👑💙🌈
Phenomenal! I just hope that both Freddie and George had a clue how much they were and are loved. It still breaks my heart that both these wonderful talents and human beings were taken so young. Thank you for sharing this........ 🏳🌈 💓
The end brings tears to my eyes, the energy an awesome tribute!!❤❤ Love George Michael!❤❤
Thanks Nick!
The whole concert is amazing from start to finish! On the dvd in the supplements you se the rehearsing this and George nails it. Then you see Bowie and seal and others actually applaud, something nobody else got after their songs. Bowie and Annie Lennox do Under Pressure, which is another highlight!
Obviously George's voice is different to Freddie, but it was just FANTASTIC to hear & see him!! He just LOOKS incredible!!RIP Freddie & George 💔💔
❤️❤️❤️
Thing is it took 30 ish people to sing Queen songs as they didnt have his vocal range. This was a wonderful tribute at the time and it still holds up. RIP Freddie and George.
George Michael absolutely SLAYED. I recommend this whole concert to you, I have it on DVD ❤ edit to say: the audience was like this the WHOLE concert!
Best Queen Cover ever
You should hear George singing the Don McLean song The Grave
Oh George, you will always be missed, unreplaceable.
George is one of the best vocalist of all time in my opinion. George suffered so much loss in his life and I think he never recovered from those losses really. But that did not stop him from being one of the most generous supporter of charity that I have ever heard of. Only after his death did we start to learn of all George had done for AIDS charities, cancer charities, children's charities, food banks, on and on the list goes. He never took credit for any of this while he was alive. He wasn't one of those celebrities who gave to charity just to boost their popularity, he gave because he cared. Just a sensitive but generous soul taken far too soon.
If i sing along, I'm going to cry.
I was living in London when Fredy Mercury died. The reaction of the people was...I can put it in proper word. I would say; respect, sadnes, admiration.....
I can only imagine :(
@@nickforellreacts check out ‘Extreme’ performing a ‘Queen medley’ from the same tribute concert from earlier on in the day ua-cam.com/video/BkOoblwXm7o/v-deo.htmlsi=TwYh0IJM7BZ4QPSF 🙌🏽
These are the days of our lives with Lisa Stansfield is awesome
Thank you for your heartfelt reaction this is a hard watch but makes you realise what a beautiful talented handsome man we lost also check out Bowie and Annie Lennox singing under pressure at the same concert x x
I also found the duet with Lisa Standsfield and George Michael that evening absolutely worth listening to.
George Michael was a phenomenal Freddie Mercury!
Love this performance so much. Great reaction. Thank you.
There's a video for the rehearsal as well if you wanna check that out.
George was the only artist I accepted at this concert. For the longest time I hadn't been able to watch the tribute since it causes such pain.--
Seal was initially considered to perform “Somebody to Love” at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert. Brian May did mention in a documentary that Seal felt he would ruin his career if he tried to sing that particular song, which is known for its challenging vocal range. - Thank you for this reaction.
Sad - because nobody challenged Freddie like Annie Lennox did in her performance with David Bowie.
Fenomenale George! Giù il cappello!! 😊
Best performam e with such love and respect. He knew just where to singel and where to give itto the crowd. I also love George Michael and IF he would to enter as the new singer of Queen I would not have been mad... but respect that the band said nah, and I understsnd.
I saw "them" a couple of years ago as the remaining members came out on stage at the end of their musikal "we will rock you" where they've been playing the mjsic all the long.
If you can find it I highly recommemd that
There is one present day singer that sounds like Freddie...Marc Martel,a Canadian singer. He tours singing Queen songs. He does not have the stage presence of Freddie. But,if you close your eyes,you would swear you were listening to Freddie.
Nick.. this entire concert will blow you away. Everyone who performed was really, really good, although George was the very best of them!! It’s definitely worth a watch if you haven’t seen it! And.. try to find some of the pre-concert footage too where Extreme did at 20+ minute tribute to Freddie (and Queen) - which (from what I’ve seen in interviews) was frowned upon by both Brian and Roger, who wanted the pre-concert singers to promote their own songs. But - Extreme LOVED Freddie and Queen and they wanted to show that love.. they did - in spades! Great reaction.. thanks!!
❤
For me, the absolute highlight of this concert was Annie Lennox taking Freddie’s part on the song ‘Under pressure’ with David Bowie.
She beautifully channeled Freddie’s love of theatricality while putting her own spin on it.
🔥❤️🔥
Can i suggest you cover the last song Queen made. Its a tribute to Freddie called Only the Good Die Young. Its pretty heartbreaking but a lovely song.
You really are in for a treat. I am sure you will be in raptures😊😊😊😊😊😊
