Hawkman Actually, it's not true. This was recorded in 1976. I don't know how about drinking, but Freddie didn't didn't start smoking until 1980. Plus, he was, like, 30 at the time of the record, so even if he was a heavy drinker (which I'm pretty sure he was NOT), I'd take an enormous amount of abusing alcohol to damage the voice at that age, thus making it pretty impossible. He did, however, develop voice nodules, which gave him a hard time singing live, but that didn't start to show up until 1977/78.
Pure natural untrained gift from birth. Open throat technique by nature or nurture. Either way want to sing like Freddy? Learn open throat technique and practice 2-3 hours a day 5-6 days a week for 3 years minimum and you'll be as close as your genetics will allow.
I thought the same... I stoped driving and listen to this very lapse 6 times before returning to the road. Then again in my house like a thousand times lol
Neil Mcintosh She meant that because he wrote the song and saying that it’s his favourite, as opposed to all the other queen songs written with the band
@@shadowfiend0258 its cuz he sings too fucking good must be a deal with the devil that's why he died years later from aids but his lover died years and years later. I'm just kidding. He is the best singer tho
For most of queen's choral arrangements, the low parts are Brian May and the high parts are Roger Taylor. Freddie still kicks ass in the midrange though.
Most choral arrangements in queen's songs are just Freddie. The intro to Bohemian Rhapsody is entirely sung by him, even though the video shows the whole band singing, it's Freddy on multiple vocal tracks.
Is it just me who feels that this is incredibly... intimate? Candid? Like, you're listening to him giving his best at a practice you're not meant to be at. Imagine that you're this sound technician setting things up and hear Freddy belting away in the booth when you jack your headphones into the system. I think I would have just stopped and waited until he finished.
I sometimes imagine him alive as a much older Freddie Mercury singing this under a spotlight. Greying hair, wrinkles maybe even a cane to add that exaggerated age. His tired body but his still iconic voice echoing across a large stage alongside the rest of Queen
This is haunting. You can hear the passion and power in Freddies voice. You can feel the emotion and soul he puts into his voice and it gives me chills. Freddie was truly a gift to the world and to music, and the world may never see such talent and passion ever again; at least for a very long time. God save the Queen!
contraire to what a lot of people think, auto tune is not used to fix the voice; it's actually used to erase some of the noises that can be found sometimes in the audio (white noise) and irregularities in the music. so yes, freddie, as many other artists, used autotune.
there were no autotune-alike tools 'til the late 90-2000s autotune is a tool to make pitch correction and making vocal effects but I (as a producer) don't recommend using autotune to make pitch corrections, the best tool is melodyne
He also hated being called Farrokh, which is hilarious considering the amount of armchair historians who like to tell us his name like it's something meaningful.
Ronniel Javier yeah it is scientifically proven that Freddie’s vibrato is a higher frequency than any other normal human being, so Freddie is a miracle
+jgroub1 You've got a point! He does his own version. He does not try to sound like Freddie. I think that Michael is great! I hope that more people will recognize his talent.
Listen to Exercise in Free Love. He sang Monserrat Caballé’s part on a tape and gave it to her. Three weeks later while performing in London , she surprised Freddie and dedicated the song to him as she sang it during her third encore.
This is absolutely beautiful. You can tell who the real musical artists are when you hear these stripped away tracks. Freddie's tracks, the Beatles tracks... the songs you know and love become something magical hearing the pure power of the voices without the instruments and backing vocals. I get goosebumps hearing the power and emotions of Freddie's voice. There will never be another one like him, ever.
I am a big fan of Queen's music and Freddie Mercury, don't get me wrong...But all those people telling US that there's never gonna be anyone like him is pissing me off...of course, in terms of personality/character every person is a unique one, but in terms talent I don't think you can say such things. I think there are a lots of talented singers out there, there just not as much in the spotlight as they used to be in Freddie's time.
Jip Boersma Yeah, there is, but those people will never "make it", because music today isn't about being "talented". It's about "marketability". There are hundreds of videos here that feature some of the most talented people I've seen in a LONG time, and yet, they are stuck playing bars, or in their bedrooms/basements.
***** You're right about that. Think about NSYNC for a second. When they disbanded, Justin Timberlake became a star and now has his own media empire. JC Chasez, a far, FAR better singer than Justin, had one album which flopped and now he doesn't even sing anymore. It's a damn shame when you hear what he can do (You Ruined Me, You Don't Have to Be Alone, Dear Goodbye, etc). Talent gets you nowhere anymore.
It's said we'll be able to cure HIV soon. When time travel becomes a thing, somebody needs to slip the cure to him. I know, he probably refuses it, but still.
+usernamenotinvaild sadly that's not how cloning works :( while the clone would be genetically the same, environment and genetic diversity through crossing over would make the new clone a very different person.
If he gets cured then he wouldn't be dead now, alternatively it creates an alternative timeline where he never died. So either we don't invent timetravel and/or HIV cure or he's alive in an alternative timeline.
Freddie was the greatest showman. I was at the tribute concert and you knew he would have blown all the others clean out of the stadium with just his voice, he was absolutely mind blowingly brilliant and easily better than all of today's performers! He is so badly and sadly missed. What I would give to have him back!

So unless a live performance, there will most definitely be a certain amount of autotune involved, thus a less than pure performance.

Same, he died 11 years before I was born and I only actually started to listen to queen a month ago and now I am purely in love with his voice and the harmonies. Bicycle race, and radio gaga are favourites
Wow, so much amazing soul. A master of his voice. So much strength. This video is drop jaw amazing. I have to sing along and then find myself in disbelief as he powers away and hits a run of high notes. Like a Russian Mig trying to chase an SR-71. "WTF?"

Freddie Mercury is one of the greatest singers of all time hands down. He's a Rock 'N' Roll singer with an Opera like voice, his voice is just beautiful. Much love to Freddie, he was misunderstood in his days but everybody came to love him because no matter what, he was a good person and he loved his fans and his friends and family, he pushed himself to do shows and appearances even when he had aids and was slowly passing away because he loved his fans. R.I.P. Freddie, we love you.
I would give a fairly vital organ to have this singing ability.

Какой же чистый у него был вокал..!
Its crazy how amazingly well the WHOLE band harmonizes with each other
I'm actually in love with this. He died 9 years before I was born and his music still gives me the chills. Queen will never die, more importantly Rock will never die. Freddie Mercury-Legendary even in his death. R. I.P Freddie♡♡♡
Devin the Destroyer same!!!
Same, he died 11 years before I was born and I only actually started to listen to queen a month ago and now I am purely in love with his voice and the harmonies. Bicycle race, and radio gaga are favourites
You were not born in 2000 no way you look way to young
@@hmorris that's a painting
Wow, so much amazing soul. A master of his voice. So much strength. This video is drop jaw amazing. I have to sing along and then find myself in disbelief as he powers away and hits a run of high notes. Like a Russian Mig trying to chase an SR-71. "WTF?"
I can imagine the recording engineers just being blown away by what they were hearing through the monitors. I've got goosebumps all over me.
yet if you hear him speaking to his friends or in interviews, he is so soft spoken and sounds so delicate
lol, I was just thinking: From 1:30 onward, "Freddie's in full afterburner"...lolol
me a queen fan to death: *WhAtS aUtOtUnE*
His voice is just so raw and rough and dramatic and soft and everything you need in a voice 😭♥️
oh what the world lost.
OH MY GOD. I need to go collect myself after hearing that.
I wish I was alive back then to hear and see his magnificent and ground shaking voice.
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Ooh, each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
(Take a look at yourself) Take a look in the mirror and cry (and cry)
Lord, what you're doing to me (yeah yeah)
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody (somebody) ooh somebody (somebody)
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life
I work 'til I ache in my bones
At the end (at the end of the day)
I take home my hard earned pay all on my own
I get down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray
'Til the tears run down from my eyes
Lord, somebody (somebody), ooh somebody
(Please) can anybody find me somebody to love?
Everyday (everyday) I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm going crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Ah, got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe in
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh, Lord
Ooh somebody, ooh somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
(Can anybody find me someone to love)
Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat (you just keep losing and losing)
I'm OK, I'm alright (he's alright, he's alright)
I ain't gonna face no defeat (yeah yeah)
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
One day (someday) I'm gonna be free, Lord!
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love love love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Somebody somebody somebody somebody
Somebody find me
Somebody find me somebody to love
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
(Find me somebody to love)
Ooh
(Find me somebody to love)
Find me somebody, somebody (find me somebody to love) somebody, somebody to love
Find me, find me, find me, find me, find me
Ooh, somebody to love (Find me somebody to love)
Ooh (find me somebody to love)
Find me, find me, find me somebody to love (find me somebody to love)
Anybody, anywhere, anybody find me somebody to love love love!
Somebody find me, find me love
Really? There are 59 people on this planet who don't appreciate this gift Freddie left us?
Unbelievable, isn't it? This was amazing!
I LIKE BOTS
The way he plays with each word is absolutely breath taking. It is amazing that someone with a voice like this existed.
2:33 is what I live for
how can you even sing this good.
Yeah, it's ridiculous how one man can sing better than 99% of other people, lol
The EE vocal vowel is super hard and he makes it seem so effortless. He really is a joy to listen to.
Hardest one to belt imo
He got that rrrr in his voice that made him so special, and I just can’t create, it’s crazy,
Listen the long “somebody to loveeeee” in slow motion, you can really hear that
3:34 HOW

I’m LITERALLY CRYING IDK WHYY?!?!! 😭😭
What a talent,, I could listen to him all day, MISS YOU FREDDIE..
Sometimes I do listen to him all day.
His voice is too good for those old mics
Freddie Mercury is one of the greatest singers of all time hands down. He's a Rock 'N' Roll singer with an Opera like voice, his voice is just beautiful. Much love to Freddie, he was misunderstood in his days but everybody came to love him because no matter what, he was a good person and he loved his fans and his friends and family, he pushed himself to do shows and appearances even when he had aids and was slowly passing away because he loved his fans. R.I.P. Freddie, we love you.
His singing is purely magical.
goosebumps since the moment he started singing...
