This will always make me cries... the song, the meaning, the memories of Freddie, the interpretation... I have seen WWRY 3 times and I would watch it 10 times more even only for this song. I'm shivering....
I saw this and her live in 2004/05. It was a show stopper - not the loudest applause ever, but it shouldn't have been. But it was the LONGEST applause I've ever heard and every bit of it deserved. She was note perfect.
I saw this musical in Ankara from another musical company, Lemur Sanat, with my mother. The performances and the dedication to the original work was absolutely incredible, very talented group of people.
I cried at this part both times I saw the show. It's just such a beautiful and moving song, and then when they showed the slides of all the great musicians that had died before their time during it, and that immortal image of Freddie with his fist in the air. Stil gives me chills everytime I hear it.
I performed this and near the end I was crying but I made it to end with pure pain and love and heartbreak I remember my friends came up on stage to help me finish the song and I sung like Kerry did for this and everyone was shocked
A hand above the water An angel reaching for the sky Is it raining in heaven Do you want us to cry? And everywhere the broken-hearted On every lonely avenue No-one could reach them No-one but you One by one Only the Good die young They're only flying too close to the sun And life goes on - Without you... Another Tricky Situation I get to drowin' in the Blues And I find myself thinkin' Well - what would you do? Yes! - it was such an operation Forever paying every due Hell, you made a sensation You found a way through - and One by one Only the Good die young They're only flyin' too close to the sun We'll remember Forever... And now the party must be over I guess we'll never understand The sense of your leaving Was it the way it was planned? And so we grace another table And raise our glasses one more time There's a face at the window And I ain't never, never sayin' goodbye... One by one Only the Good die young They're only flyin' too close to the sun Cryin' for nothing Cryin' for no-one
This is actually the best version of this song on UA-cam. I've seen all version and this one is even better than recorded at studio. This "I guess" at 2:59 is better than all. Thank you for video!
I'm from Northern Ireland and went to see this musical a few years ago. It was amazing! There are so many great musicals in London. I'm so jealous. There is nothing like them over here!
Loved Kerry Ellis in WWRY and Wicked but wish she'd stuck with her musical theatre roots. She's not a pop singer and does the theatrical roles so much better. Come back to the West End Kerry!
This song was such an awesome tribute when it came out. That girl is a good singer. But, Where's the Blues? Big cred to her anyway, awesome singer, that gives her very best!!! Keep it up, you're great!
well, there are some other very amazing things to do and see in London, but WWRY is really worth going to London for!!! I can tell from my own experience, I've been three times.
totally and completely agree wonderful and incredible hehe thanks i was sure sum1 wud have already taken it i do love him.. particularly oliver tompsett haha ur name is cool 2 xxx
Me too. I always liked the song but never really thought about it as a hugely emotional one. Seeing it in the context of the show (in Edinburgh last night) it was a real highlight, for me.
I loved queen, when I was child and now I see there is such musical, which seems unbelivibely amazing. I want to see it. I hope there will be change since I am from Czech so it is quite dificult to go to London only because of this.
What a voice, saw WWRY yesterday brilliant show, shame kerry's no longer in it.... Saw her perform this at the albert hall earlier this year and it was amazing to say the least
I’ve been waiting for this! I did see WWRY at Red Rocks, here in Colorado about 6 years ago, but it was just the songs without the play. Now I get to see the whole show in theatre this week! Delighted to say the least! I did see Queen with Adam here in 2017, which was definitely the concert event of my life!!
The musical is a collaboration of Queen's most popular songs, put into a story line. This song was written by the remaining members of Queen after the death of Freddie Mercury, as a memorial, and in the musical, they are naming stars who died in their prime

A true STAR IS BORN making performance!!! Love you Kerry!! You truly kept Freddie's spirit alive.
This will always make me cries... the song, the meaning, the memories of Freddie, the interpretation...

I remember when I visit London and saw this musical alone. Kelly is the best sing and actress I ever seen before.
She is an incredible singer.
She owns this song.....and everything else she does! Flawless performance. Love her
Almost unbelievable. Kerry deserves the world.
I honestly don't believe any singer in the world could sing that better, puts so much into it brilliant.
no one!! no one!! sings this better than kerry!! kerry ellis rocks! and is brilliant!
Oh, freddie...
The way she sings this brings me to tears every time.
I saw this musical in Ankara from another musical company, Lemur Sanat, with my mother. The performances and the dedication to the original work was absolutely incredible, very talented group of people.

Untill i tried to sing this i didn't realise how hard it was!
Shes amazing!
Saw the play the 2nd time last sunday... wonderful!
i never get tirred of this video. Shes so talented
She makes me melt when she sings. Cannot wait to see her in concert on May 1st. Then she touring, maybe a couple of visits :-)
kerry rox this song
she sings this gorgeous song with such power and emotion
kerry is incredible
OMG!!!!! Is there ANYTHING Kerry cannot do?!?!?! She is sooooo AMAZING!!!!!
I performed this and near the end I was crying but I made it to end with pure pain and love and heartbreak I remember my friends came up on stage to help me finish the song and I sung like Kerry did for this and everyone was shocked
I saw WWRY in Toronto and will openly admit that I wept at this part. And I still cry whenever I hear this song. So emotional!
A hand above the water
An angel reaching for the sky
Is it raining in heaven
Do you want us to cry?
And everywhere the broken-hearted
On every lonely avenue
No-one could reach them
No-one but you
One by one
Only the Good die young
They're only flying too close to the sun
And life goes on -
Without you...
Another Tricky Situation
I get to drowin' in the Blues
And I find myself thinkin'
Well - what would you do?
Yes! - it was such an operation
Forever paying every due
Hell, you made a sensation
You found a way through - and
One by one
Only the Good die young
They're only flyin' too close to the sun
We'll remember
Forever...
And now the party must be over
I guess we'll never understand
The sense of your leaving
Was it the way it was planned?
And so we grace another table
And raise our glasses one more time
There's a face at the window
And I ain't never, never sayin' goodbye...
One by one
Only the Good die young
They're only flyin' too close to the sun
Cryin' for nothing
Cryin' for no-one
This reminds me of my BFF's dad. Rest in peace Gerald. Remember, only the good die young.
RIP Alan Darby, 1 of the 2 guitarists in this show that changed my guitaring life. Thank you Alan and Laurie Wisefield.
This is actually the best version of this song on UA-cam. I've seen all version and this one is even better than recorded at studio.
This "I guess" at 2:59 is better than all.
Thank you for video!
I'm from Northern Ireland and went to see this musical a few years ago. It was amazing! There are so many great musicals in London. I'm so jealous. There is nothing like them over here!
She's so amazing I am on the verge of tears!
Miss this musical. Saw it so many times and was lucky to see Kerry performing :-)
Me too. LOVED Kerry as Meat. Miss Sharon and Mazz as Killer Queen.
I go back this summer, so i hope kerry ellis play in it when i go:) than it's the perfect musical
She is so amazing 😉 her voice is so touching when I hear her sing it brings back so many memories
Gosh I love this song...brings me to virtual tears. This one and Who wants to live forever. :')
I cried like a baby when I saw it last fall. Such an amazing musical- The best I've ever seen...
kerry ellis is quite a ledgend!
What I wouldn't give to see this woman live. Amazing!
Loved Kerry Ellis in WWRY and Wicked but wish she'd stuck with her musical theatre roots. She's not a pop singer and does the theatrical roles so much better. Come back to the West End Kerry!
I cried buckets when I saw this live. Twas the SOuth African cast but with Mig Ayesa as Galileo and Annie Crummer as Killer Queen.
i like the musical, i see it with a school trip and when i go back to london i wanna see it again,:) good song and the best musical
This song was such an awesome tribute when it came out.
That girl is a good singer.
But, Where's the Blues?
Big cred to her anyway, awesome singer, that gives her very best!!!
Keep it up, you're great!
ive seen this show 3 times in german, but there is no one like Kerry!
it is a beautiful song, im doing it at Musical Theater class. I want her costume, and her beyond-awesome hair lol
Finally got around to seeing this yesterday ( due to being put off due to the pandemic ) well it was worth the wait it was bloody amazing ❤️
When I heard your singing, I was moved to tears. I was deeply moved by yours.
well, there are some other very amazing things to do and see in London, but WWRY is really worth going to London for!!! I can tell from my own experience, I've been three times.
I dont get how 7 people can not like this its brilliant
for all those who left us far too soon. the recent passing of George Michael made me think of this song, so many have left us far before their time
WOW!.... I think I like her in this more than wicked.... just..... wow
totally and completely agree
wonderful and incredible
hehe thanks
i was sure sum1 wud have already taken it
i do love him.. particularly oliver tompsett haha
ur name is cool 2

I sang this last week; wish I could've sounded like this! oO
This song reminds me of my cousin who died young. 24 years old young. Might learn this in memory of her
Plz make a WWRY movie! and ofc let Kerry Ellis be in it ^^
such an emotional performance, couldnt help but shed a tear when i saw it live. x
Me too. I always liked the song but never really thought about it as a hugely emotional one. Seeing it in the context of the show (in Edinburgh last night) it was a real highlight, for me.
I loved queen, when I was child and now I see there is such musical, which seems unbelivibely amazing. I want to see it. I hope there will be change since I am from Czech so it is quite dificult to go to London only because of this.
Absolutely brilliant! Kerry is pure talent

A hand above the water
An angel reaching for the sky
Is it raining in Heaven
Do you want us to cry
And everywhere the broken-hearted
On every lonely avenue
No one could reach them
No one but you
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flying to close to the sun
Life goes on
Without you
Another tricky situation
I get to drowning in the blues
And I find myself thinking
What would you do?
Yes, it was such an operation
Forever paying every due
Hell, you made a sensation (sensation!)
You found a way through (found a way through)
All:
And one by one
Only the good die young
They're only flying too close to the sun
Meat:
We'll remember, forever
And now the party must be over
I guess we'll never understand
The sense of your leaving
Was it the way it was planned?
And so we grace another table
And raise our glasses one more time
There's a face at the window
And I ain't never, never saying goodbye
All:
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flying too close to the sun
Meat:
Crying for nothing
Crying for no one
No one but you
21 years of lost, 15 years of this tune.....Freddie come back you are too good to die
