First Time Reaction to Queen "Somebody to Love" Live in Montreal
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- By far the most requested song on our channel at the time of filming this video, Queen's "Somebody to Love" live in Montreal.
We don't want to spoil it, but you probably already know how we're going to react. This is one of the best musical performances of all time in our opinion. This is one we definitely agree on.
Freddie Mercury is fantastic as always, but Roger Taylor stole this show for us. Wow! What a performance. John Deacon and Brian May also played their parts to perfection. We understand why this was the #1 requested video now.
Video used in this reaction: • Queen - Somebody To Lo...

WOW!!!! This is by far THE best reaction for this song in all of UA-cam!
You didn’t make all the right noises in your comments to please the viewers, your total appreciation of this performance shone through and was genuine. What I’m most thrilled to hear is your recognition of the fabulous voice and drumming of Roger Taylor.
Most reactors just concentrate on Freddie, who is wonderful, but you give credit where credit is due, so I’ve now subscribed to your channel and look forward to many more Queen videos.
My suggestion for you to react to is “White Queen”, live at Hammersmith Odeon, 1975. It’s mesmerising! ❤🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
First of all, your comment about the reaction is humbling and much appreciated. I assure you the reaction was genuine, and even after watching this several times during editing, I can say that we're both still impressed by their performance here. We also appreciate you subscribing. The "White Queen" version you mention is on our list.
@@CoachCastTV I didn’t mean to imply anything negative, so I’ve slightly reworded my text. So sorry for that. X
Nothing negative was perceived on our part. We appreciate your very kind comments! Hope to see you around the channel!
@@CoachCastTV I’ll definitely be back here! ❤️😃
It was pretty cool to hear that Rig "stole the show". Not easy to do!
Amen. Roger Taylor is phenomenal.
I'm amazed at his talent. Thanks for watching!
he'd be the lead singer for any other band...
It’s not just that Roger is singing and drumming. It’s that he is doing a phenomenal job at both.
Yes!
AND he’s singing in harmony.
Roger is one of the better singing rock drummers. It's considered one of the harder instruments to play and sing simultaneously.
(Wind instruments exempted)
😆😅🤣😂
Four guys, no ear pieces, no autotune, no mixing, nothing but them and their instruments out there jamming their ❤hearts out. John , Roger, Brian, and Freddie doing it right. Highly talented each their own. Together Epic!!
😂 on the PSA for miracle ear 😂
I'm glad someone caught the Miracle Ear reference.
Such was the time, you can or you can't
When I watch Roger playing the drums and singing I wonder where he finds the energy, it is not like he is taking a slow slap at the skins, he is all in and singing through this entire song. You can see him take really deep breaths to be able to do it all. If you want to see some more skillful vocals and instrumentals you must react to Queen: White Queen live at Odeon, Hammersmith, 1975 that is a mind melting performance. Thank you for a great reaction.
Thank you for the suggestion as well as watching our video!
I agree - but sadly the camera never leaves Freddie - though he duets with Brian on guitar - who actually wrote the song .
The concerts is his training the rest of the day he relaxes .
Roger Taylor is one of the most extraordinary musicians of the last 50 years!
Anne-Maries: Freddie wrote Somebody to Love.
They're the only band where every member has written at least one No.1 song, and all four of them sing. Roger the drummer and Brian the guitarist both have great voices and they've each been lead singers in their own bands. Queen is the complete package.
I cannot argue that last sentence at all. Thanks for watching!
@@toddmathers5075your alright dont worry. Those who are called “that guy” are often right.
@@toddmathers5075John did sing from time to time on live performances. You can see his mic stand in this performance! At 3:04 he and Brian head for their respective mics to sing.
toddmathers: Relax now.
@@jamesbailey2377 he’s right though. People give John alot of credit, which I mostly agree with, except for singing. People need to remember that he’s already legendary as he is. They don’t need to say that he can sing just so he can be elevated along with the other three in the band.
Nailed it. All these guys are hall of famers. Roger Taylor is a phenomenal talent. Brian May - one of the top 25 guitarist(s) of all time - he could also sing. John on bass was perfect for this band. Put them all in a room & this is what you get. Roger reminds me of Richie Sambora from Bon Jovi - in the background but absolutely essential to the sound.
Queen are the most musically talented band ever each of the four member wrote a number 1 hit👍
That's incredible!
Finally somebody appreciates not only Roger Taylors awesome drumming but his amazing backing vocals.
He's incredible!
@@CoachCastTVwatch Roger playing 'I'm in Love With My Car' live.
@@mrvlsmrv That one is on the channel now.
@@CoachCastTV I'll look forward to it.
Think about it. Only four people on the stage making this music. That’s talent folks.
Yes!!! Somebody appreciating Roger Taylor in this video. His vocals are absolutely immense!
He was outstanding! Thanks for watching.
Roger is a great drummer and he is singing the higher harmony notes over Freddie so big props.
He's incredible...but they all are, really.
Roger would have been good enough to be a lead singer in 90% of bands. You have to be as awesome as Freddie to compete. And not many are as great as Freddie ever!
The best Frontman of all time imo. Queen simply the best live band of all time.
The three live videos we've seen, including one not yet posted, have convinced us they put on one of the greatest shows of all time.
Thank you so much for appreciating Roger Taylor. Freddie Mercury is the one of the best vocalist ever, but the rest of the group definitely needs to be recognized for their talent.
Yes, that sound is only possible when all 4 of them are on top of their game. Thanks for watching!
Roger Taylor himself has great back up vocals and a great drummer
Agreed!
In many other bands, he'd be the lead singer for sure.
@@basstianhe was the lead singer in his own band The Cross
@@davebain1982 Yes, but I mean professional world-class bands. The Cross was... alright, but not even close to top-tier. He could do better.
This is 100% live perfection. No auto-tune no trickery no in ear monitors just pure unadulterated talent. Queen at their peak live were absolute perfection.
Truly outstanding!
I've been a fan since 1975, when I was 12 years old. Roger's vocal range is crazy, but you have to dive deep to hear the best vocals. Every member of Queen is brilliant.
Yeah, this band is different (in a good way). Thanks for watching!
You'll be even more shocked and amazed when you listen to another Queen live performance. It's called White Queen from The Hammersmith Odeon in 1975. Have fun! Great reaction video this one!!
Thank you, we do need to do that one for sure.
Queen - their live performances are better than their recordings! Gives me goosebumps every time ❤️ Hope you have watched their Live Aid performance 😊
We have not, but it's on our list to watch. Thanks for commenting. They are impressive live, for sure.
Liked & subscribed because you said you will do more Queen! Great reaction to the best band ever& thank you for giving kudos to Roger Taylor, his ability to sing & play drums so phenomenally is second to none! In any other band he would have been the lead singer! Freddie didn’t drink beer on stage usually, he said it would be disrespectful to the audience if he burped, he normally would drink tea with honey for his voice! The beer was for the other band members & for advertising! You must do Queen’s set at Live Aid ( please!) it’s 21 mins wisely regarded as the best live performance ever, you won’t regret it I promise! Thank you again, love from Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you so much for that info! We have already filmed another Queen reaction coming soon and have the Live Aid performance on our list to do. There will be lots of Queen on this channel, because we are both enjoying them and Queen fans are amazing!
Roger Taylor, drums, great falsetto, Brian May, great guitarist who made his own guitar as a teen, also great backup vocals & lower vocals, John Deacon, great bass, some vocals but great at electronics, all with degrees and very smart and talented to the gills. Brian is an Astro-physicist, Roger went for dentistry, Freddie went to art school, graphic design. John was an electronics engineer. Poor Freddie, greatest vocalist ever. He even sang opera with Monseratte Caballe. All their live performances are awesome. Roger and Brian have and have had their own solo recordings, along with Freddie having his own. Sigh.
Wow, the talent in this band is impressive!
@@CoachCastTV Freddie designed the Queen Crest logo, John built the amp Brian used and Roger's supporting backup vocals filled in when Freddie's voice needed a quick break during live performances.
The more we learn about them the more impressive they seem.
@@ellet6560you should have maybe specified which amp haha. It was the small Deacy amp John built, Brian's main amps were and still are the Vox AC30s
Songs: Loveof my life, You take my breath away, Too much love, The show must go on….Roger had a solo career also, great song: Old Friends, Say it’s not true. Brian had his own version of Too much love, he wrote it, so…they both take on different meanings. Soooo many songs, can’t decide.
I think this will be a very big rabbit hole to go down. Thanks for watching!
Not beer guys… singers don’t drink beer while performing … can cause burping. Freddie was an impossibly fabulous genius composer singer artist… His birthday was yesterday and His fans will love him and miss him forever✌🏼💛 Queen are the GOAT!
Yes, the beer bottle threw me. But good product placement.
There was a little beer there too as was said for John, but Freddie would take a sip of it in the long break for Bohemian Rhapsody (live they never tried to fake it, the middle section was a studio creation so the band would go off while the recording played and the lights and effects did the rest, then they'd come back on for the last section), and near the end of the show when the open beer had gone a little flat. And if you watch some of the interviews with Freddie, he's drinking beer.
In recent years many have made him out to be this high class aloof type person who only drank champagne, and whilst he did enjoy the finer things in life, he always enjoyed some beer. Including a few sips onstage along with his honey tea.
@@MikePhillips-pl6ov Wow! Great info there.
@@twoofsix3b3g Freddie has said himself that he wouldn't drink during performing. Tea/honey only. He didn't want to burp while trying to sing. So no sips for him. Backstage breaks maybe. Also he was more of a champagne guy.
The burping can be alleviated by removing the mic far away from his mouth.
If you want more of Roger Taylor watch him at the same concert singing I'M IN LOVE WITH MY CAR. You'll love it.
That one is on the list. Thank you!
Yes this entire concert was excellent. Save Me, Play the game and their live performance of Bohemian Rhapsody will not disappoint. As you've already noticed us Queen fans are more than just a little passionate about these guys and we're always happy to see new fans in the making. Enjoy your journey 👑
Yes, we'd have to say one of the most passionate fan bases in the world. Thank you!
For all the Queen fans I think your review is very kind and full of heart. Loved it.
Thank you. Queen fans have been amazing to us so far!
@@CoachCastTV❤
Roger’s solo playing the drums like a maniac and singing his song-‘ I’m in Love with My Car’ is unreal!!
That's high on our list to do.
Freddie wrote this song ... inspired by his favorite artist, Aretha Franklin... Every band member sang backup on this one during live performances.. the studio version really shows their harmonizing... I love this song and it was one of Freddie's favorites❤..
We can certainly understand why it was a favorite!
John didn’t sing backup on this song, or very many at all. A couple early on but he didn’t think he had a good voice and therefore rarely sang.
John did sing minimal back up on this…❤ Have a great day❤
@@susanp.7954 Sorry, but he wasn’t singing during this performance at all (where’s his mic?) and in the studio version video he’s not singing either, he’s lip syncing. He did sing backup live on “Liar” with Freddie’s encouragement, but he didn’t like his voice. ✌🏼
Sorry, again..there are several live shows where John sang minimal vocals on Somebody to love..but I do know he lip synced in the studio version…
Yesterday was Freddie’s birthday, and h once told some reporter this was his favorite song. 👍
Happy Belated Birthday to Freddie. Wish that guy was still around.
I keep coming back to this video because of your appreciation for Roger 👏
We appreciate it. This is one we've watched several times as well. They were all on top of their game here, but agreed, Roger killed it.
I miss Freddie so badly. 😢
This song as performed is actually gospel. Queen transcended genres. They could and often did do just about everything under the sun. Freddie even sang with Opera singers. Freddie is often called the best front man ever with one of, if not the best, vocal ranges but Queen is one of the best bands ever too. All four of them.
"Gospel" for sure...we both loved this so much!
@@CoachCastTVYou’d love “Let Me Live” if you like gospel. Freddie, Roger and Brian each sing a verse of the song while being backed by a gospel choir. Gives you a chance to hear each of their voices separately and together. 😊
I was going to mention this song's gospel roots. @CoachcastTV -- although their live performances are generally the best, it's absolutely worthwhile to watch the official video of this song (whether you react to it or not) for the strong gospel sound. In the studio they could do some looping and layering of voices, and although it doesn't have the vocal pyrotechnics this live performance does, the gospel choir feeling is its own kind of awesome. Freddie was a big fan of Aretha Franklin, and this song is his tribute to her.
@@angiepen Good info. Thanks for that. We have been told the studio is quite different than the live.
@@CoachCastTV They're pretty much always different, yeah. Usually the studio isn't as good, in Queen's case, but sometimes it's just different. :)
Not a lot of people noticed that Brian May's guitar actually broke at around 6 mins 30 ,crew instantly repaired it and Freddie turned round to see if he would make it for the vocals ,he didnt quite so the band played 2 extra bars to give him time ,the sign of real professionals
I thought I knew all the Queen trivia, but not this beauty- thanks!!
They’re all very versatile, songs are versatile and of all genres, and Freddie has a 4-5 vocal range. Thebes’s.
The scary thing is, if you keep watching queen , " you ain't seen nothing yet "
MY FAVORITE SONG! Hurray 🎉 Thank you 🙏🏻 Freddie penned this beauty inspired by Aretha Franklin. This was Freddie’s favorite composition!! The cups contain honey water & tea! Heineken bottle placed strategically for the sponsors!! 👉🤩👈
The sponsorship worked. LOL
Well, no, it was always there whether the cameras were on the band or not. When watching them live, even from the third row as I was once, you couldn't see the label on the bottle. Nothing to do with product placement.
@@MikePhillips-pl6ov Interesting. Some viewers said it was, but either way, it was memorable. And the performance was simply one of the best of all time.
@@MikePhillips-pl6ov Oh wow .. thank you! 👍
how many singers, do you know, that can play the piano, then sing on stage, and go back play the piano and have a drink again before carries on, with out a break in the classic song, legends that are queen, you should watch queen live aid, its a probably the best 22 minutes show of all time live
Freddie is a top-notch showman, and insanely talented. Thanks for watching.
@@CoachCastTV watch his live aid, you might not know what life aid was, it was a global concert to raise money for the africans, as they were going through a drought and famen, it started in england, and continued due to the time zones, america and australia, and few other countries chipped in, it went for 16 hours live, queen played the biggest secgment, playing part of there top songs, aslo what goes with thate, usa did a record, and the uk did a record with all proceeds going to the cause, america was we are the world, beat us brits hands down, had every american singer
@@CoachCastTV bohemien raphsody (spell check) they are most famous for,
I'm familiar with Live Aid but never watched any of it. We have heard Bohemian Rhapsody but not a live version.
@@CoachCastTV it the greatest live show ever, he does portions of about 5 or 6 songs, greatest 22 mins ever, but great reaction, he also does, other stuff, happy to guide you if needed, balad, singing with opera singer and the title song for a movie,
I love watching first reactions to this song. I grew up with Queen but it wasn’t until I started watching these remastered live performances that I truly appreciated their talents 🥰
Other great songs at this concert: Save Me, Play the Game, Bohemian Rhapsody, Love of my Life…
Yes, we know of Queen from our youth but never took time to really listen to them, so this is new to us, and it's impressive.
This is my favorite Queen song and this is the best performance of this song!!! Roger was outstanding!!!!!!
Yes, he certainly was!
That's not a beer, that's Freddie's tea actually
Freddie drank iced tea
If you want to experience Queen at their very best watch the Queen set at the Live Aid concert from 1985, this has been voted the very best rock performance of all time
That is the #1 requested reaction on our channel right now, and we do plan to do it in the near future. Thanks for watching!
Great reaction. You need to see their “ live aid “ performance. It’s a very quick 20 minutes that will flash by. You won’t regret it. 😁👍🏾
It's on the list to do. Thanks for watching!
If you want a dose of early Queen then I recommend "White Queen" live in Hammersmith. Also anything from my favourite concert, Wembley, particularly "Under Pressure" ( including the eey oh callback) and "In The Lap of the Gods revisited". Later, if you want something really different, take a look at Freddie singing with opera soprano Montserrat Caballe, specifically "Barcelona" and "How Can I Go On." Remember, Queen is always best live!
Yes, live is the way to go with this band, for sure. Thanks for the additional info.
every song freddie sings on its own is a show itself, you have pop music, classical, opera, rock music, jazz, the blues, Then there is Queen its own style
Freddie is absolutely amazing!
Oh, Roger sings lead on I’M IN LOVE WITH MY CAR.
Good to know. That's on the list.
Really enjoyed it guys.Queen is a youtube sensation..lol a fifty year old band.Amazing Freddie,best performer in the worlds greatest rock band
George Michael performed this song at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert and he's for sure the second best singer in the world who sang this song, you'd like that performance too
the whole band was superb roger taylor was simply amazing with his drumming and backing vocals
If you really enjoyed this, treat yourselves to what is thought by MANY to be the best rock performance ever; Queen at Live Aid 1985. I promise you won't be disappointed.
That one is coming soon. We have it high on the list.
Now that I know you're in love with Roger Taylor, please watch this same song in the Queen Official Video Studio version. Because you'll hear how the song was released with so many rich harmonies the band can't duplicate live on stage. Those Roger high vocals! Woo. Plus it's fun to see the lad, all young and everything, in what looks like their 'recording session' of this song. (It's really worth a peek)
Freddie loved Aretha Franklin who sang R & B, gospel, etc. This was his attempt to honor her.
I've listened to thousands of Queen songs and a fair number ov videos over 40+ years and you're right, I couldn't take my eyes off of Roger. You have to be damn good to be noticed individually while sharing a stage with Freddie. He is damn good.
Very well said!
It's GOING TO ABSOLUTELY BLOW YOUR MIND!!
QUEEN ROCKS!!!
MORE PLEASE.
Roger is a highly underrated drummer/singer.
Roger has stated that singing and playing the drums is a “nightmare”.
Thank you for reacting so enthusiastically to my second-favourite live Queen performance of all time. My absolute favourite being their twenty minute set for Live Aid at Wembley, in London in 1985. I have loved Queen since I saw the official video of Bohemian Rhapsody broadcast on the BBC pop music programme 'Top of the Pops' in 1975. (You really should check that out too. It's phenomenal). In case you didn't spot it, if you look back at the second time Freddie jumps up from the piano, he sees Brian May (lead guitar - now Sir Brian May PhD, the author and astrophysicist) heading to the back of the stage with a broken string, and so he extends his interaction with the crowd - and tells Roger (drums) and John (bass) to "keep it going", until he sees Brian returning.
Thank you for picking up on Roger's awesome ability to continue with the epic drumming, never missing a beat, while singing his heart out.
Oh, and the beer bottle is a product placement. The brown liquid in Freddie's cup is tea with lemon and honey to lubricate and soothe his throat through a concert that might last up to two hours. ♥
New subscriber, hoping to follow you down the Queen rabbit hole as you discover more of my favourite band.
Thanks for all that additional information! I did not pick up on the broken string situation. The product placement of the beer bottle clearly worked. This band is simply incredible and we're very eager to listen to more. Too bad we both have full time jobs. LOL
Gives me GOOSEBUMPS....
EVERY SINGLE TIME I SEE IT....WOW!!!
The beer bottle on the piano was placed for advertising purposes only. Freddie only ever drank tea with honey while performing to soothe and lubricate his throat.
they are insane live..always have been, Something really special with all of them, But the mix of the group together; its almost inhuman how good they worked together.....probably been mentioned by somebody else....but you want to see a masterclass of performance...check out Live Aid...they went on stage with some of the greatest rock bands of the time. And they proceeded to wipe the floor with them, wouldn't have ever wanted to follow Queen on stage. They were magic
Yes, that one is on our to-do list. Thank you so much for watching and commenting.
i've heard superman wears a freddie mercury shirt.
- some smart guy
ONE OF THE BEST GROUPS IN THE WORLD. ALL OF THEM REAL MUSICIANS, NO AUTO-TUNE, NO LIP-SYNC, JUST PURE ARTISTS. I AGREE THE DRUMMER IS INCREDIBLE.
Queen's Live Aid performance is considered by many to be the best live rock set ever, so it's a must see. I recommend White Queen (Live at Hammersmith Odeon) and Love of My Life (Live at Wembley). Enjoy your Queen journey, this rabbit hole goes very deep :)
Yes, we have begun to realize this is going to be a lot of content!
This is a great performance, can you believe that it is just 4 guys up there making all that amazing music! All the songs from the Montreal concert are worth hearing. Queen - an unbelievably talented group, who compose and perform in so many different styles, you will never get bored listening. And, yes, Roger Taylor's ability to hold his performance on the drums while singing is just awesome! Subscribed....
Yeah...this performance is stellar. Another Queen video coming tomorrow. Thanks for subscribing!
If you want to see how good Roger Taylor the drummer is, check out Killer Queen / I'm in love with my car" from the same concert at Montreal
On the list...definitely want to hear him singing lead.
Yes definitely ❤
I suggest you ' White Queen (as it began)' live at Hammersmith Odeon 1975 , amazing, and ' I'm in love with my car ' live in Montreal 1981 with Roger Taylor lead singer
Roger singing lead? I'm in!!
@@CoachCastTV yes! in the first studio albums there is always a song sung by him ( and also by Brian). They are unique and brilliant!
I LOVE White Queen!❤️❤️
Happy 77th Birthday, Freddie (yesterday). You would be just as impressed with the Milton Keynes '82 performance.
Fun fact about that Superman tank: It is currently at auction along with many of Freddie's personal items.
Current bid? $15,000 USD 👑
Wow! Thanks for watching and commenting!

It was Dr. Brian May, but a while back became Queen Elizabeth made that Sir Brian May,
@@jimwilcox2964 Oh, wow! That's awesome!
Oh, you have so much amazing Queen music to catch up on. Many of their songs you will have heard before but not realised it was Queen. Live, Queen are a force of nature. Look out for “White Queen” live at the rainbow.1974. Very early in their career but music perfect ! 😊💐
White Queen has been mentioned a few times so I trust you folks know what you are talking about. It's on the list.
The greatest band of all time ❤. They are all fantastic. The only band I know who is better live than in the studio! Keep them coming!
They are great live! Thanks for watching!
Thank you, Queen is the best of the best.
Please try "Save Me" from the same concert. Or "Another bite the dust from welbley 1986".
I love your reaction and subscribed 💛❤️
We're grateful. Thank you!
Roger Taylor in the top ten of singing drummers.
I liked Queen when I saw them on TV in 1974 for Killer Queen. I finally got to see the boys live either side of this Montreal gig, in London in 1980, and in Leeds and Milton Keynes UK 1982. They did this song on those tours, and all their other classics. They were at the peak of their live shows in 1980, 1981, and 1982. I was lucky to see them again in 1984 and though they were still amazing (a Queen gig was always top quality), I thought this era was the best. They were also officially the biggest band in the world in this brief period, on sales alone, once they got really big in the US after The Game album 1980 with the songs Crazy Little Thing Called Love and Another One Bites The Dust.
Queen were special live, something about them, obviously all great musicians, with three singing voices. But it was the tightness and the chemistry.
Plus they were loud! And at times heavy! They could rock out with the best of the heavy bands. But they also had all this subtlety and variation in their music.
For years I was trying to get people to try out more Queen beyond the hit singles, and to go see them live, but in the 80s and on it was yeah yeah, they are old style, and history, we've heard it all. But they hadn't!
Now, largely due to the movie (and reaction channels!), there's a new generation of fans who have come to appreciate them. Freddie would be amazed at how much bigger they've become over the decades since his passing. And I'm sure he would have loved it. He always said he hoped people would remember him for his music.
Great comment. Yes, we heard their songs in the 80s but at the time it wasn't music that really appealed much to either of us, so we never sought out more. Now that we are older (and perhaps wiser) we realize that this music is special, and so is this band. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Hopefully we can bring this music to more people who don't know much, or anything, about this band.
Queen only, ever, comprised only four people. Think about it.
You should do Roger Taylor with Jeff beck singing say it’s not true….Roger wrote it for Freddie I think🎼❤️🎼🇬🇧🇬🇧
Why don't you look up Roger Taylor singing Bruce Springsteen's Racing in the street.
Speaking of multi-tasking, the astrophysicist on lead guitar (Brian May), also has some great pipes as he and Roger Taylor (drums), carry the backing vocals.
Somewhere Superman is wearing a Freddie Mercury Tshirt.
Just thought I would mention this. Freddie's touring piano, which you see here, today lives at Brian May's house.
Best reaction to this live performance I’ve ever seen!!! You guys are awesome!!!
You are so kind. Thank you!
Probably one of the best songs ever
Yes!!! Without a doubt!!!
Your faces from the off 😮, then. Roger does his thing and 😮😮, then Freddie and Roger come in for the finish 😮😮😮😮😮
Never too late to get into Queen, you’re in for a treat.
They one-up this performance four years later when they did Live-Aid. You have to watch that one. Freddie is on fire. 🔥
It is on our list. So many people are saying this. Thanks for watching!
You guys are so cute and love music. I saw Queen 3 times in the 70's and this was every concert
So “Watching them” back then, we didn’t get to do that much unless you saw them live. We had albums and radio. All these great songs live is awesome to see but the whole other side of Queen is what monsters they were in the studio! All the harmonies, yes even the BALLADS are just phenomenal! What you may loose from their studio work, they make up for being monsters on stage!!!!
At this moment Freddie has realised that Brian has a problem with his guitar and improvises till Brian comes back true professionals
I think singing and playing the drums at the same time would be like patting your head and rubbing your stomach at the same time 😃
LOL...impossible for most people.
The Greatest band of All time.
They are outstanding!
Freddie drank tea with honey when performing. He didn’t want to drink beer for fear of burping and being rude to the audience.
Great reaction. Freddie didnt drink beer when he was performing he was drinking tea with honey/lemon to soothe his throat
The beer bottle threw me off, but it was good product placement, if nothing else.
Freddie can be seen drinking beer on stage sometimes, such as on Wembley. He has a plastic cup with a yellow drink with a frothy head, it's clearly beer. He drinks beer on stage here too.
It's not beer Freddie's drinking. Beer made him burp so he always had honey and lemon in water to lubricate the pipes when on stage. Not sure about the ' water ' though 😄
Mrs Coach hits the nail on the head when she said "You cant beat them" she is absolutely right
This is a great song and it was amazing to see live, Madison Square Garden in September 1980 on this tour, but my favorite of the show was "Save Me" a new song off "The Game" album.
The Garden went wild!
Never heard that one. Another for the list, I guess. LOL
The only band in history where all four members wrote no 1's.
They are pretty amazing.
Oh this is the phenomenal video. I have no other words 😁
Shout out to Roger Taylor for mad drummers and killer backup vocals!
No matter who you are. It’s easy to see greatness. This man is a legend. I’ve been a musician my whole life. I couldn’t imagine working with such greatness.
I think most of the world knows Freddy is the greatest most captivating front man ever!!
Roger has a phenomenal voice. He has a tribute song to Freddie called Old Friends, well worth listening to.
Sounds like we should do that one for sure.
@@CoachCastTV definitely.
Watch queen on live aid , they stole the show.
Yes, that's on the channel now. 😁
This video reaction has (at this exact moment) 65,579 views. And I'm pretty sure at least 579 are mine 😁
🤣 That's great. We appreciate you!
