    I originally made a lower quality version of this music video (not the one posted here on youtube) back in the early 90's using 2 VCRs and a dual cassette boom box. I always wanted to remake a better quality version of this video after getting the "A Kind of Magic" CD by Queen and the DVD of the movie Highlander. I put it off for several years but finally made a better quality version (99% same editing cuts as the VHS version) in 2005 using the CD, DVD and a PC. Two years later I finally got around to putting it up on youtube. I hope you like it.
    Oh btw, some of you "old timers" (like myself) may notice something familiar about the credits in my video. It's my "homage" to my favorite music video show from the 80's, TBS' "Night Tracks".
    Just a note for those that know me another online name but might find it hard to believe me when I tell them that I made this video, I am also ARKM of ARKM Sabers.

      Apparently Freddie didn't really like the song because him and John Deacon didn't like metal. Which is surprising and you genuinely can't tell, because he sings the shit out of it. But to be honest, that just makes me respect him even more. Never a guy to phone it in.

      Clancy has shrunken down. He's currently 6'2" since he has gotten a little older (that happens), so it wouldn't be hard to find another tall actor to fill in. Hollywood is filled with either really short people and really tall people. They always go to an extreme to produce more effect with the characters.

      @atraxuswraithe6031 9 років тому +3

      I dunno, man. I don't deny that Clancy Brown was perfect for the role of The Kurgan, but I heard a rumour that Dave Bautista, AKA Drax The Destroyer in Guardians Of The Galaxy, will be The Kurgan in a Highlander reboot set to come out in the next few years.
      I'm not saying that Bautista will be better than Brown in the role, coz no-one can beat the original; I'm just saying that Bautista will be seriously bad-ass as The Kurgan, if the people behind the film can do any justice to the original. So, a day of cinematic reckoning is approaching: in the red corner, Drax! In the blue corner, Mr. Krabs!!! There can be only one!!!!!

    • @killerfrank8974
      @killerfrank8974 9 років тому +2

      Atraxus Wraithe True, it all depends on what the people behind the film do with it, how well they write it, what actors they pick, etc. Still, I'm not one to be too big on remakes in general. I feel remakes or re-imaginings (whatever term you like) should only be reserved for those films that could be perfected in a big way and "Highlander" is already a great film. However, as reluctant as I am about the project I must confess I'm still curious what they'll do with the story and all. Wait and see, right?

    If ever a band of musicians were BORN to make a song like this work so spectacularly well, then it was Queen (all of 'em). And if any singer was ever BORN to carry off those lyrics with such (demented) conviction, it was Freddie Mercury : who else could've done it, I ask you ? ... . I guess most people know Queen cos of the massive pop-py hits they had (impressive list, eh ?), esp in the '80's - and mebbe that Live Aid thing. But, behind it all, Queen could ROCK good'n'hard with the best of 'em - 'BETTER than' in most cases (don't believe me ? Check out the 'LIVE - Killers' album). I'd put 'Gimme T' Prize' in amongst my Top-5-Queen-Songs-Of-All-Time-List any day of the week (not that anyone's bothered, you understand, but I just like saying it ... in writing ... which is kinda 'quiet', I suppose).

After an unbelievably crappy beyond belief Highlander 2 came the 3 and when tickets failed to sell cause nobody wanted that crap anymore they started with a b-rated tv serial which was noway close to the original but just barely ok. Then it got even worse by the politically correct immortal woman. It lasted one season and then it ended there. I bet the writers regretted that cause they might have tried to take it a step further down. They just LOVE to take a great story and destroy it in the most unglorious way possible .
