Lead singer is Freddie Mercury. He had a 4 octave range. Had a degree in graphic design. Guitarist is Sir Dr Brian May. Made his own guitar with his father that he uses to this day called the Red Special. He is an Astrophysicist. Drummer is Roger Taylor and has a degree in Biology. John Deacon is the Bassist and has a degree in electrical engineering. Queen is the only band that all members wrote a #1 hit and all of them wrote multiple #1 hits. You won’t find another band that accomplished what these four men did.
Back when i heard papa May buildt guitar and bass from old cottage wood for them.
AND they're all in the Songwriter Hall of Fame.
Well said ❤
👊🏼
@@pitfisch1you are correct. He and Brian made it together. I thought I put that in my post. I added it. Thanks.
No auto tune, no ear pieces, just raw talent. Freddie 's vocals will never be surpassed, he's brilliant. Shout out to Roger Taylor's drumming and vocals... Amazing ❤❤❤❤
Insane talent
There were no in-ear monitors at that time. Everyone, including Queen, used floor monitors. Basically they’re wedge-shaped speakers that point at the band rather than the audience.
Freddie Mercury was one of the finest male vocalist ever. Extraordinary talent & command of the stage.
Yes Absolutely Amazing
Agreed
Of course you are right. But can we also appreciate Roger Taylor's (Drummer) backing vocals?
Freddie Mercury "is"
@@bunyip-ni6ch 100%. I started to mention that, thanks. If I'm not mistaken, according to the movie, it was his *high* voice needed in Bohemian Rhapsody and he had to practice it repeatedly to hit the note. (?)
Freddy was the performer of all performers.
R.I.P.
Insane talent
@@PradaWesthe could also use the audience as an instrument in an amazing way (live aid performance) There’s also a clip of the audience singing Bohemian Rhapsody while waiting for a show to start that’s pretty inspiring ❤ first time watcher and I enjoyed your reaction and comments 🥰👍
Queen has billions of fans worldwide. Focus on Queen reactions and your channel will blow up. Guaranteed.
✅
The lead singer, Freddie Mercury, would actually pass away 10 years to the date from this performance. He died of AIDS in 1991. Tragic loss to the world of music. By all accounts, he was a wonderful person in addition to one of the best singers in history.
✅
He was indeed a wonderful person. It's fun to go on a deep dive into his personal life. He was pretty good in business as well. Like he made a lot of investments with his money, and his first earnings went to his family, random people who worked in his home. His former girlfriend, Mary Austin, who he said he still always loved, because love isn't determined by who you have sex with. The man just had a good heart.
@@Hollylivengoodwell said 🤍
Freddie was a singer from a time when there was no auto tune or any real vocal enhancements done. This is PURE talent and an example of why we older crowd miss our music.
Haha everyone hates auto tune
Yep. Everything is fake, perverted & dull. I do not need flashing lights, fog smoke, exotic dress & foul mouths and a bunch of useless dancers on stage. Its more like a Broadway Show then raw talent. You know with all the aerobic dancing, they are getting tons of help with the voice. Sad.
@@PradaWest It's irritating. And sometimes perfect pitch isn't the perfect moment in a song. Sometimes the right emotion is created with just a tad flat or sharp. Like with Aretha Franklin. I saw an analysis of her singing, and her voice was spot on every time, except in those just perfect moments, like in "Respect", when having it slide a tad to the left of perfect made you feel the song.
Freddie Mercury...best vocalist in history!!!! Along with the best band, Queen, in history!!!
AMEN
Amazing 🤩
One of the two bests for me...the other one is Ronnie James Dio
If you don’t know Queen you should just jump right in to their 1985 set at Live Aid! You’ve never heard “Bohemian Rhapsody” ? I’m here for the discovery.
Will do
Exactly this. Queen’s (and especially Freddie’s) performance at Live Aid is considered one of the best live performances of all time. His complete mastery of the audience during the 20 min or so they were on stage is unparalleled.
@@PradaWest When/if you do BoRap start with the official. It's one of the very first (if not THE first) music videos.
The Queen rabbit hole is huge .Too many popular songs to list .Queen were massive.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🔥
exactly any and every Queen song is a must listen, in my opinion
There will never be another Freddie Mercury. Legend! ❤
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Invest 22 minutes to hear the best rock and roll ever recorded. Queen performance at Live Aide. It is amazing. Welcome to the Queendom.
Will do
Was just about to suggest the same thing!
You know Queen, you just don’t know you know them.
I’ve been brought back up to speed 🙏🏼
Freddie Mercury was the greatest front man to have ever lived, his interaction with the crowds was his thing. R.I.P to the one and only Freddie.
✅
@PradaWest so amazing to see your reaction go from curiosity to awe to amazement to enjoyment to wow awesome reaction. ❤
Freddie had an incredible range with his voice. And no matter how big Queen got, Freddie still never thought he was good enough.
Insane
Welcome to the Queen rabbit hole. We are a huge fan base and we love seeing new fans discover their music for the first time. You won’t be disappointed ❤
I’m here for it
The Greatest Frontman Ever!!!❤❤❤
✅
Queen always always been awesome
People have brought me up to speed, and I am familiar with a few of their songs. I just haven’t listen to them in a really long time so I forgot which songs they have created.
Everything good sweet one
Queen was an amazing band!
🙏🏼🙏🏼
If you can't recognize Freddie.... wow you're in for a musical journey.
✅
You keep doing Queen and all of us Queenies will stay with you. And there are Millions of us.
He's sipping on lemon and honey made for him during the shows.
Love it I’ll deformity do more queen
One Vision is another absolutely amazing tune
Queen did Another one bites the dust. We are the champions
✅
@@PradaWest next should be SAVE ME from this same concert!❤
His music never get old. Awesome
✅
This is one of the greatest live performances ever. Freddie Meryury was an untrained singer, never took singing lessons, bue was a huge fan of Aretha Franklin, loved her early gospel style singing, and he learned a lot by listening to her records. Freddie wrote this song as a tribute to Aretha. The most famous Queen song is the Bohemian Rhapsody.
✅
RIP❤ Freddie…greatest performer and Vocalist of all time
✅
One of the most awesome music groups ever🔥🔥💯
✅
Queen is HUGE and Freddie Mercury was a phenomenon, the lead singer/piano, Roger Taylor on drums/great falsetto/, Sir Brian May on lead guitar/vocals/curly hair abounds, John Deacon on base/great at electronics. They all wrote the songs, quite a democracy among them, and a 21 year run before Freddie passed away so young, RIP, will love him forever, such a great performer, genius musically, a great person irl, the opposite of his on-stage persona, which surprises so many people.. The Live Aide set in 1985 is a must for anyone wanting to see them do the greatest live performance ever, even though Freddie performed with a throat infection and against doctors orders. 72,000 people there at Wembly, 1.4 billion people saw it on tv, shown worldwide. And the Bohemian Rhapsody official video from 1975 (remastered) is also a must, if nothing else. Groundbreaking, as they were with most if their songs over the years. Always experimenting, perfection.
Appreciations for mentioning their other offers. This band is/was on top. Pretty fantastic!
👊🏼
The channel popped up for me because it was about Queen. I was happy to see the video was only just made and not two years old already.
So we have just witnessed a young persons first steps into a Queen journey. Long may it continue and I'll be back for each and every one. Much like other lifelong Queen fans do. Channels grow when the Queen fans start to flock in. I think it's because we've been loyal fans for around 50years, you can't change us now. 👑👊♠♦♣♥
Gonna cover more Queen songs
He strutted, he swaggered, he soared. Voice, actions, those terms apply equally to both. He had the audience eating out of his hands.
Freddie Mercury lead singer diploma in graphic art and design, Sir Dr Brian May lead guitar PHD in astrophysics, Roger Taylor drummer Degree in Biology, John Deacon bass guitar First class honours degree in electronics there you have Queen love them ❤❤ all inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame & Songwriters Hall of Fame all wrote number one hits xx
✅
Couldn't recall queen, but now unforgettable one of the best bands ever, a must watch now is queen at live aid 1985
I was in the same exact boat my friend. I couldn’t recall any of their songs until, someone brought up to speed and referenced we are the champions, and I was like OMG 🤦🏻♂️ how could I forget.
Back when Music was great and pure talent no auto tune 🎵 😊 RIP Freddie ❤ thanks
Facts
For a few years in the 80s, Queen was the most popular band on the planet. They are still one of the highest grossing bands -- if not the highest ever. Freddie Mercury is probably the greatest frontman to hit the stage. All four members are phenomenally talented but Freddie, he was touched by the gods. Queen concerts were more like parties than performances, and the audiences were the invited guests. Someone has probably already suggested you check out their set at the 1985 charity concert Live Aid. It is considered to be the greatest live rock performance ever.
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Nobody can match Freddie's vocals! Fantastic performer. This is one of the all-time best live performances ever.
Facts
Freddie had an amazing voice and just loved watching him perform on stage ❤
🙏🏼
Queen is considered the greatest rock band in history by MANY, myself included. I much prefer their live performances for obvious reasons. This is a great example, but there are so many others you'd love. Four master musicians came together and it's truly lightning in a bottle. They were well-rehearsed, passionate and they performed with a conviction not seen before or since. Check out their 20 minute set from Live-Aid in 1985, We Will Rock You and We Are the Champions from this Montreal show in 1981 and Who Wants to Live Forever from their 1986 show in Budapest. Absolutely incredible!
✅
Freddie Mercury had an amazing voice!!!! I love every song he sang!!!!! ❤❤❤❤Fat bottomed girls, Radio Ga-Ga, Bohemian Rhapsody, We are the Champions, and he was an amazing performer
🙌🏼
@@PradaWest he also did a opera song with an opera singer, and that was amazing. I would recommend to check that out as well. Queen Was amazing and I think without Freddie Mercury they would not be have not become the group they had. I actually have their CDs and I am so glad that I do I would have loved to have heard queen and Freddie Mercury live
@@PradaWest like paradawest daid, check out Freddie's live performance with opera singer Montserrat Caballe and then remember he never had a singing lesson in his life.
Sorry, like Shangrocesaid, I meant!
@@eh1702 that is one performance I think that Prada definitely would be amazed at that really is a blow your mind performance
Freddie Mercury,, 💚🤟💚🖖
🙌🏼
Queen, the best!❤❤ please react to Live Aid Concert 1985,, Freddie Mercury Forever❤❤❤❤❤❤
✅
Welcome to Queen. While you discover their music, we Queen fans will travel along and guide you. Great reaction. “Live aid “ should be next. The quickest and most enjoyable 20 minutes of your life. 😁👍🏾
Thank you! Will do!
There is nobody who has the talent of Freddie. His voice, musical talent and stage presence. A complete genius ❤
Every member of queen were masters at the craft. They all could sing the all wrote music they were truly incredible they could do it all. And then there's Freddie there are not enough words in the English language to describe how great Freddie was. The band members name are Freddie vocals Brian guitar John bass and Roger drums
R.I.P FREDDIE WE MISS YOU
✅
RIP Freddie Mercury, the greatest talent ever. He is missed.
🙏🏼
When Freddie did this, he had a bad sore throat. The man was a maestro.
✅
Pound for pound, arguably the greatest front man and rock vocalist.
✅
You want to see Queen especially Freddie exert some crowd control, watch Live Aid . Their set is still considered the best Live performance in Rock. To this day.
✅
I'm a big fan of Queen but I'd still rank Jimi Hendrix at Monterey 1967 as the greatest live show ever. And many 70s Queen shows were musically better than Live Aid. Live Aid shows Freddie's ability to connect with an audience best.
No. Don’t stop in the best part of the song to discuss the ‘ meaning’ of the song. TY
👍🏼
Queen are Legends. There will never be another Freddie Mercury. RIP
Loved his music ❤❤❤❤
Absolutely 💯
This entire concert was recently released in IMAX and is currently on Disney+. Well worth a watch.
Awesome 😎
Great reaction! I’m sure you know Queen, we will rock you, we are the champions… Queen is awesome and Freddie Mercury is a legend!
Epic. One of my favs ❤

✅
We will rock you, we are the champions, I want to break free, Radio gaga all songs by Queen, I grew up with them
The best
@@PradaWest yes he was
Freddie Mercury is considered the best rock front man and their concert at Live Aid was ranked the best concert of the 21st century. You know more Queen songs that you can imagine. Watch the movie Bohemian Rahpsody, which won many Oscars, which is about Freddie Mercury and Queen. A masterpiece.
✅
Soooo young!!!!!
Freddie Mercury. Wow, you have so much music to check out.
Paraphrasing here: 'Freddie's answer to what instrument he played, he says the audience'
Oh so true.
Right 🙏🏼
No AUTO TUNE! All Natural God given talent! RIP Freddie. x
🙏🏼
at 7:15 when Freddie is singing with the crowd, that was actually an improv as Brian May had just broke a guitar string and needed to sort it (you can see him walk off stage for a few seconds).
Freddie was a very rare talent. Amazing singer, and a talented pianist, and more importantly, he could write amazing, catchy music! He lived life fast!! Completely sex-mad! liked to party and no stranger too a drink or a line! Loved people and was kind and funny. They say the brightest candles burn the fastest! Sad how he died.
Love it
You would definitely recognize "We Will Rock You" and "We are the Champions" (both stadium anthem favorites and often played at sporting events), and you would probably know "Another One Bites the Dust". And another song like no other you have heard before, another all-time classic, is called "Bohemian Rhapsody" 😎 👍
Yes I was def brought up to speed 🙏🏼
Freddy was the best singer of all time.
He had 2 vocal cords and a built-in auto-tune (he had to because that wasn't invented yet) and could sing low and high notes in every style like it was nothing.
That and their songs ROCK so I will be a Queen fan for LIFE.
🙏🏼🙏🏼
I love these guys 😊😅great song 🎉Luv & respect always Cass ❤️
✅
Live aids 20 minute queen live performance is, the best ever live performance ever.
✅
Ive listen to Queen years ago love his music ❤
✅
They recently released this 1981 Montreal concert in IMAX. I saw it and wow - incredible!!! As good as you can get to being there.
Huge Queen Fan Here. I had the privilege of growing up with their music.
⚘️🕯 Freddy Mercury was an amazing talent
✅
This is my favorite live performance of this song, the band is spot on and Freddie's voice is perfection. This was written by Freddie Mercury and is a homage to Aretha Franklin who he absolutely admired. He never got to sing with her, though he always had hoped to but their paths never crossed to do so. Thank you for your reaction. My other favorite live Queen performance is White Queen live at Odeon, Hammersmith 1975. In that video you will not only see Freddie's vocal talents shine, you will see what may be the perfect instrumental portion that lasts 1.75 minutes. It is screaming and crying heavy guitar and flashy piano that is nearly impossible to grasp as being live. If you appreciate good musicianship, this is a performance not to be missed. Again, thank you for reacting to this great performance by Queen at Montreal (Which is an incredible concert in total and was filmed in 8mm film so the video quality is excellent). This is all before autotune and earpieces so recognizing the quality of musicianship of this band becomes quite obvious.
✅
You might not think you know their music but, trust me, you know their music even if you don't know its Queen. The band recently sold its music catalog to Sony for $1.3 billion which is by far the biggest deal in the history of music anywhere. Queen were huge and extraordinarily talented. They attracted over a quarter of a million people to a single gig.
They were back then the bomb hell yea
✅
That’s not even my type of music but darn the talent… it makes it my kind of music
✅
Hi Prada,
It warms my heart to see younger generations checking out older music. I hope you continue your musical journey! So much good music that I grew up with. Great reaction. Take care and God bless!
I love it all Queen is amazing and I have been brought back up to speed as to the songs I am familiar with of theirs
This performance always makes me cry. You can tell Freddie wrote this song because he pours his entire soul to it. He directly talks to God about why he's so lonely with nobody to love. RIP A LEGEND
🙏🏼🙏🏼
It’s the cutest thing that you have to look up the lead singer’s name 😆⭐️⭐️
😃
Hahaha I was thinking the same thing! “I don’t know the lead singer’s name. I’ll have to look him up. He’s got some vocals on him, that’s for sure.” 😂😂😂
I'm 37 now I became a queen fan after listening to queen 2 album x
They’re so awesome
Great reaction. This song was Queen's homage to Aretha Franklin 💜.
Freddie was THE frontman of musical frontmen! -x-
Love the song
I first heard ''Somebody to Love'' in 1976 and it never gets old to this day😎
✅
Love to see someone with such an open mind for music! Great reaction.
Much love and thanks 😊
He gave his life in order to live his life.
I respect it
Raw talent...no auto tune.
Facts
This was your lucky day on discovering Queen officially! To me, this song live in this concert may have been their best ! Enjoy going down the Queen rabbit hole - for another live concert video, try “Sheer Heart Attack” from (Live at the Bowl, 1982). Or “Stone Cold Crazy”
Would recommend listening to the Queen Live Aid Performance to get a selection of some of their Greatest Hits.
✅
Thank you very much for bringing Queen to those who were not born and raised during the best time to Rock -n- Roll with the greatest bands! I believe I just dated myself, cool! Great job too. 👑🌈👏
Thanks for listening
Best band ever ❤😂
✅
Freddie Mercury is the # 1 front man of all time. Please check out more Queen.❤
✅
Queen fan here since more about 40 years. Freddie 's voice - one of best in the world. Another unbelievable voice " Dimash Kudaibergen" singing OGNI PIETRA aka known as OLYMPICO from the Arnau Concert on his own channel. This guy has an 7 octave range and he is trained since the age of 5 years old. Plays multiple instruments and is also a very humble person. I'm pretty sure you will enjoy it. All the best from Germany 🇩🇪 Petra
Much love ❤️ queen is amazing
What an introduction for you to Queen !!! One of the best live performances I've ever seen.
Prada.. this takes me back.. as I was just graduating from High School... I shed tears with the death of 3 celebrities of which Freddy Mercury was one. ..goosebumps for ever!! Brian May .still the Best Lead Guitarist... Bohemian Rhapsody of Queen ..a MUST!!!!
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Enjoy the ride! You know a lot of Queen, you just don't know that yet! Love and LIght to All! j.
Thank you! You too!
Love this performance! 💯🔥
Me too
No one can even come close to Freddie or Queen. Best band ever ❤
Loved, loved. loved your reaction! Of course I've seen this production a 'million' times but watching with you and your fresh view, was terrifically satisfying.
Wow, thank you!🙏🏼
He drank water or hot tea for his voice. No beer.
✅
I found someone to love
💜
But amazing with the guitar 🎸🎶❤️🔥🔥❤️🔥🔥❤️🔥🔥❤️🔥
Yes 🙌🏼
If you watch their live performance at Live Aid.....you will see what he did with the crowd ❤️
I will for sure
Check out Queen @ Live Aid , full performance. Its 20 minutes long but well worth it. I was there 😁 keep going with the Queen reactions. Another must to check is White Queen live at the Odeon 1975 , one of their early concerts ❤
I will check it out
Watch Freddie play the vast crowd at the Live Aid concert!!!! Outstanding.
Ok I will
@@PradaWest great! Look forward to watching with you👍🙋♀️
Everyone needs somebody to love
The G.O.A.T.....❤
💕
Love to see a reactionist who knows music

Another one bites the dust. Fat bottomed girls original. And fat bottomed girls, live at the bowel. Just for a start. Thanks for your interest and good job. 😊
Heck, yeah I was already aware of queen just had to be brought back up to speed because it had been so long since listening
This makes me think of the movie Happy Feet. ❤🤩❤️
