    Thanks! No lip synch, no autotune, no offstage backing track. This is LIVE, connecting with the audience in real time, with all the pluses and minuses that entails, especially late in the concert, when the voice is tired but the audience is turned up to 11.

    An all-time classic. Freddie was just a master with understanding the power of his vocals and how to best use his voice.

  • @sonjarussell7332
    @sonjarussell7332 Рік тому +17

    You are so very correct. The more you see of his live performances, you can tell if the song is at the beginning, middle or end of a concert. He belts everything. Usually in upper ranges, unless his voice is tired. Then he'll still belt...but in a lower octave...always in key. When that happens (like in this song) if you listen closely his voice cracks a couple times...and Roger picks up balance.

    So this performance was the final song of their Live Aid performance. They weren't supposed to even perform that show, but they got a late call and decided to go on stage. You should definitely take the time to watch the full set. He was just such a musical genius. Hands down my favorite artist of all time. Great reaction. Love your channel!!!

    Maggie, I heard somewhere that depending on what mood Freddie was in at the concert, he would often change the pitch of his vocal's willy nilly. Even the rest of the band wouldn't know if and when he was going to do this.

    I was lucky to see the boys live during this period, more than once, 1980-1982. Freddie and all the band were at the top of their game; their best live era, and officially the biggest band in the world at that time in terms of sales.

    I've noticed that Freddie usually doesn't go way, way up the register in live performances - one has to pace themselves in a 2+ hours concert - I'm assuming, having never actually sang for 2 hours.
    It seems like it's been a spell since you looked at Queen, but their Live Aid set is worth a watch. Arguably the best 20ish minute set in rock and roll history - with Freddie suffering from a voice ailment, no less.
    Just found this channel - love the reactions.

    While Mercury often said that anyone who wanted to hear the studio version of a song should buy the record, the reality is that there were things (like the high note you were expecting) that he did in the studio that he couldn't reliably repeat live. The two active members of Queen have both said that Lambert can replicate what he does in the studio during every concert.

  • @brittahlander1043

    Saw them on this tour at Madison Square Garden in September 1980.
    This was the next to last song of the encore, or final encore if the played two.
    Is usually preceded by "We Will Rock You" and followed by "God Save the Queen".
    Yes Freddie had stripped down to nothing but his shorts and bandana. He had slowly stripped down from the start of the show. He started out the show in jeans with his Superman t-shirt and leather jacket.

  • @brianscott3541
    @brianscott3541 Рік тому +4

    I remembered you said something like it seemed like We Will Rock You should lead into another song. This is it. As you guessed as well, this is generally the finale at the Queen concerts. One of the earliest and classic hits in their catalog. BTW I am really enjoying your own performances. Your stage prescence of your with that rock and roll band at the beginning of the clips is amazing!!!! Have a b-e-u tiful day!!!!❤😀

    I was lucky enough to see them twice live in 86 at Wembley stadium with my dad (he was a fan too) when I was 14 and then we liked it so much when they added a date at Knebworth we managed to get a ticket for it too. Little knowing that 87 would be the year they stop touring after Freddie came out about his illness. Still remember the shock that caused to many people at the time.

    note this show is gen admin. It is not a sit there and listen show. It is a get up and move show.
    For those who dont know what gen admin was: It was when all tickets cost the same b/c u could go any place u wanted at any time within the limits of the venu. This is how the Dead played to over 125,000 at Saratoga Spring in '81.
    The energy of those shows were something else. U dont get it with the u have sit and listen show's we have today..

    really interesting to hear comments from a real Opera star on all this various music. Tbh, most of the songs selected I am not into, but Queen and Freddy are in a league of their own. Thru reactors like Maggie, I realize just how few authentic vocalists there are. Freddy, Ann Wilson, Tommy Shaw, Epica, Nightwish, but it's a short list of real singers. Streisand is another with voice clear as a bell.

He is also classically trained and is said to be the best tenor/male vocalist on the planet. This is the best version I've heard. You will be so surprised!! Power, resonance, control. His song, "No More Nights," is the best second choice. He also has done Whitney Houston and Righteous Brothers songs.

      This show is from 1981. Freddie was diagnosed with HIV/Aids in 1987. In 1981, Freddie was partying, doing drugs and had a lot of sex partners. That's why he couldn't reach the high notes and plus he was smoking so he had a husky voice...

    I’ve watched plenty of critiques over the years in all kinds of music and genres. First, nobody in their right mind would ever critique Freddie. You start out by talking the words of the song which is totally ridiculous. If you gave Freddie Mercury a bad critique that would make things even worse for you. Probably one of the most creative and greatest singer songwriters of all time. I had to say something because I just couldn’t believe my eyes and I shut it off after four minutes to write this.

Maggie, you are a very beautiful woman and do not need nearly the amount of make-up you've got on. You are pretty enough to get away with very minimal make-up. Let your fans enjoy the gorgeous 'real' you! Take care and looking forward to your next video.

    Freddie Mercury wasn't a true tenor. He could hit all the high notes in the studio, where he could do endless takes, but in concert, he avoided them, usually taking a lower harmony. Roger Taylor, the drummer, would often fill in the top notes for him, as he does here.
    In the studio, Freddie is the best. Live, my vote goes to Roy Orbison. He could have sung opera.
