I get what you're saying, but it's not like there aren't literally dozens of successful songs out there talking about girls with big butts 😂😂 Now, being in love with your car? Now that's a subject that's hard to write a hit song about lmfao.
I'm relatively new to the channel and only seen a handful of videos but I can already tell lex just has a deep, natural understanding of music, she just gets it
This was really fun!! P.S.... Brian May (lead guitarist) wrote this song. And even though Freddie was gay (he did swing the other way in his younger days).... he LOVED this song!! Now you HAVE to follow this up with "BICYCLE RACE"!! That song is what Freddie is referencing when he sings "get on your bike's and ride" at the end of this video!!! The "Bicycle Race" video is awesome and you'll definitely get a HUGE kick out of it!! It's a MUST SEE for sure!! GREAT reaction, you guys are too much fun!! ;)
Truth is Freddie was never just gay. He was beyond bi, he was "Try-Sexual" as in willing to try anything. He just had a lot of energy :) I imagine if he were alive and young today he'd identify as non-binary or pan or one of those other non-conforming identities.
@@Zundfolge I hear what you're saying for sure!! But to take it a step further.... I think Freddie was against labels. That was part of his struggles. He just wanted to be himself and wanted the same for others.... I think for him.... labels need-not-apply. He was simply a good human being and rejected labels of any kind... just my thoughts. Peace... :)
Freddie was so theatrical and so completely committed to performance it brings a ton of juice to the audience. Reminds me of Bob Seager's line "Ever ounce of energy you try to give away" and he fires energy into the crowd like a laser cannon.

The fact a gay man made the first mainstream "big booty bitches" song is fucking hilarious Edit: this comment thread is full of internet know it alls beware
@Rhonda Allan no, that isnt promiscuous. Having the abilty to have an intimate relationship and attraction with a man or a woman is called Bisexuality. Promiscuity is a person who likes to have intimate relationships with two or several people at once. Can a person be monogamous and bisexual? The answer is yes. Can a person be promiscuous and bisexual? The answer is once again yes. So this is why asked my question to you because I believe you are confused.
It's the positivity, the smile and those eyes. She's unusually beautiful to begin with. Brad is a lucky man and he knows it, I wish the very best for both of them.
Queen's music has so much heart and soul poured into it. Not to mentioned each and every member was skilled beyond belief. I dare anybody to not like Queen. Truly the greatest of all time.
The look on your face Brad when you are listening to the lyrics. Too priceless 🤣🤣🤣 I grew up listening to Queen , me and my friends used to scream this at the top of our lungs whilst riding around the village on our bicycles. This and I want to ride my bicycle we’re two of our favourites 💖💖
I have to say. Watching you two react to rock and metal while I do dab rips after a hit night in the kitchen a beautiful thing. Definitely makes the end of my day much more productive towards enjoyable R&R. Thank you Brad and Lex.
Freddie had that unique ability to be not only a rock star (and possibly best front man ever) but also an incredibly talented singer. If you haven't already, check out "Don't Stop Me Now" (it's my go-to happy song) and "Under Pressure" from Wembley in 86. You'll see how Freddie controlled 80,000+ people without breaking a sweat.
Okay, now the perfect way to round out your Queen reviews is by reacting to their entire Live Aid performance! Hands down one of the most amazing live performances
Is the line "Get you your bikes and ride!" from this song a reference to "Bicycle Race"? I've always wondered if they were referring to their own song.
I have loved this song from the very first day I heard it. I loved it when I was a child and had no idea what the hell he is singing about - I just loved the melody, the chorus and GOD THAT GUITAR RIFF IS SO GOOD. I LOVE BRIAN MAY AND HIS GUITAR PLAYING!
Back in the day, big girls were considered undesirable, and there for desperate and easy. This is the ballad to thank them for being many men's first due to the perceived approachability. It ain't right, but it's a great song anyhow.
It seems to go in and out of style . Bony girls were in vogue in the 60's. A few decades later it was big girls. And it's been going on for a loooong time. Look up the term "Reubensesque."
This is why Freddie was beloved ❤ around the world. He was one of a kind. Beautiful soul, and very outspoken, he was beautiful. Rip Freddie you were a gift.
My favorite among the "lesser hits". I mean nothing beats Bohemian Rhapsody... And they talked about Freddie's hair and mustache in this video. His hair got shorter and shorter, then he suddenly had a mustache. The video for Don't Stop Me Now has that iconic short haired Freddie before the mustache. Must have been around 1980. Looks good!
i love how he was such a true queen about it and yet he showed such respect for the beauty and sensuality of women. As I got older, I saw his appreciation for all things beautiful and exciting. He didn't embrace just gay or straight. He embraced life to it's fullest. That's part of the reason why their music still resonates today. They embraced everyone before it was a fad.
Brian said that he wrote this song for Freddie because Freddie liked ladies (and gentlemen) with ample bottoms. Whatever the reason, this song is still as much fun today as when it was first released. Everyone of my friends in California loved this song, no matter their bottom size. Nice reaction, thank you. There is a Queen companion song to this one called Bicycle Race. In that video there are something like 20 or 50 naked girls on bicycles riding around the field at Wembley. It is a fun video as well.
Freddie IS Very Versatile, did a Duet with Michael J. Called " THERE MUST BE MORE TO LIFE THAN THIS ", & A few Years before he passed he performed "BARCELONA " a Duet with Opera singer Montserrat Caballero, his Voice cannot be matched❤
Can't wait for your reaction to under pressure live at Wembley, that's where you'll see Freddie and his relationship with the crowd. Also check out don't stop me now official video.
Love watching you two. You make the reaction fun and exciting. Queen was one of the greatest bands ever. Thanks for bringing them back to our attention. Keep up the great reactions.
2:49 Halfway through this analysis of "Big Ol' Butts" in music and beyond, I literally had to pause, get up and walk around for a minute because I could not stop laughing. 😆😂🤣🤣🤣
Queen will rock you and touch your soul at the same time. 'The Show Must Go On' 'We Are The Champions' & 'It's a Kind Of Magic' are well worth a look. 🤘
It's awesome watching you react to Queen. Such a great band, and your reactions just add to it all. Tina Gilbert pretty much nailed it with her comment, so I won't repeat those things. I do recommend you watch the movie Bohemian Rhapsody. Fantastic movie that tells a big part of the Queen story.
Yes!! Hopefully you guys can check out more from Queen!! Bicycle Race, I Want to Break Free, Don't Stop Me Now, and Hopefully you guys eventually give Riders On the Storm by The Doors a listen!
@@janematthews3394 yeah lol I think people are taking that out of context, and also not understanding Freddie's Flippen ways. Freddie said other things too, such as I sleep with everyone, I've tried both sides. Most of Freddie's friends recognized him as Bisexual, they also said when he was with gay friends he would play up that side, and visa versa, so I'll stick with what Freddie said, rather than what people perceive him to be.
@@deboraclark5791 Actually most of his friends say he qas gay. Including Brian, Roger AND Mary. So does his sister, his stylist and his personal assistant. It's all there in documentaries. And Freddie did refer to himself as gay in private among friends. After Mary he was only with men. When he went out he went to gay bars. If he himself says he was gay and his friends who were close to him and knew him say he was gay, then he was gay and it shouldn't be dismissed. I find it very disrespectful when people do that.
In the 56 years I've been on this planet and the thousands and thousands of songs I've ever heard, this is, without a doubt, my #1 all time favourite... simple beat, great groove, fantastic grungy/sleazy guitar sound, incredible drum fills, Freddy, well, it's Freddy, what more needs to be said, and as always, those amazing harmonies. But I don't think the lyrics were ever supposed to be taken "literally". It's not "necessarily" about big butts, it's about finding beauty in unconventional "shapes". In the second verse he says, "I've seen every blue-eyed floozy 'long the way, but their beauty and their smiles were kind of smooth after a while, take me to those lardy ladies every time." And there are other songs along the same lines... Jimmy Soul's "Never make a pretty woman your wife" and Dr Hook's "When you're in Love with a Beautiful Woman", both of which point out the problems of being with somebody when you know every dog in town is sniffing around them, and worse, that if she wanted to, it wouldn't be hard for her to have anyone she wanted, and if you really want to stretch things, there's always ACDC's "Whole Lotta Rosie" who wasn't a "conventional" beauty by any means, but sure managed to rock Bon Scott's world, and that, apparently, is actually a true story. So no, Fat Bottomed Girls isn't necessarily about Fat Bottomed Girls, it's just about finding happiness with someone who rocks your world. "I've got mortgages and homes, I've got stiffness in my bones, ain't no "beauty queens" in this locality... but I still get my pleasure, still got my greatest treasure, heap big woman you done made a big man of me." If it works for you, the hell with everybody else. :)
Now you need to do Bicycle Race. It's kind of a companion piece: "Fat bottom girls they'll be riding today." Make sure you get the official video. You talked about how today this video would be too risque. Well, the original Bicycle Race video wouldn't be allowed to be played today.
Hey guys, I just came across your videos today. I've watched about 9 videos. These are all great jams I grew up listening to and still listen to today. I have a bunch of suggestions, but 2 for now. Surprised to see you haven't done a George Thorogood song yet. Most famous is Bad to the Bone. But listen to One bourbon, one scotch, one beer. The story line is of that era. I like how he goes into detail with his lyrics when he tells his story. Sounds like two different songs. Another recommendation is Three Dog Night....Never Been to Spain. Very smooth flowing and enjoyable song. Look forward to seeing your reactions to those two songs. Alright, take it easy...and if it's real easy, take it twice. Ha
My very first concert 1982, I was 12 years old. My brother took me ( 9 yrs older ) and it was Queen he took me to go see! I feel so lucky! My favorite band!
Love this song!! Brian wrote this song for Freddie cuz he did appreciate “junk in the trunk” in both men & women 😉 But you gotta see this song performed live in Milton Keynes 1982. It’s completely Fire 🔥🔥🔥 Freddie even pole dances with the scaffolding!! 🔥🔥🔥 It’s HOT 🥵 OMG!! The companion song to this is called BICYCLE RACE (written by Freddie) inspired by the Tour de France! Let me just say it’s a bicycle race (wink wink). 🚴🚴🏻♂️🚴♀️🚴
Despite the epic tune, Ironically Freddie it seems wasn't really into girls, he had a long time relationship with a dude at a time when such relationships were frowned upon if not illegal in a lot of places.
There is a reason he named the band "Queen". He was bi though and always referred to his female ex fiancee as the love of his life and she got most of his estate in his will.
@@BunniMonster Freddie came up with Queen because he wanted a royal sounding name. I don't think it had to do with sexuality since the other 3 members we all straight.
@@neillenet291 He said that (And it's obvious that) he was fully aware of "Queen" referring to gay men and enjoyed the multiple interpretations, in fact he constantly referenced liking these connotations that were separate from the royal interpretation and wanted to shock and be outrageous. He said he preferred people to see it in the royal sense but that the other meaning had played a part in the naming process. The band wasn't very happy with the change of name from Smile to Queen but Freddie always got his way.
This song is proof that Queen could turn almost any subject matter into a hit song. That's why they're my favorite classic rock band.
I get what you're saying, but it's not like there aren't literally dozens of successful songs out there talking about girls with big butts 😂😂
Now, being in love with your car? Now that's a subject that's hard to write a hit song about lmfao.
Oh yeah, the have a song about a bicycle too. Check out Bicycle Race
@@jennifercrowe7399 they have *multiple* songs about bicycles lmao. Gotta love Queen
Erm...Madness?
It's also why I love Beck, just nonsense lyrics and turn out a whole banger of an album
I'm relatively new to the channel and only seen a handful of videos but I can already tell lex just has a deep, natural understanding of music, she just gets it

Yes, bicycle race is a great song, love that bass in that song, so melodic.
Bicycle race was the B side of the 45 single for this. Great guitar tracks on that song.
Truth is Freddie was never just gay. He was beyond bi, he was "Try-Sexual" as in willing to try anything. He just had a lot of energy :)
I imagine if he were alive and young today he'd identify as non-binary or pan or one of those other non-conforming identities.
@@Zundfolge I hear what you're saying for sure!! But to take it a step further.... I think Freddie was against labels. That was part of his struggles. He just wanted to be himself and wanted the same for others....
I think for him.... labels need-not-apply. He was simply a good human being and rejected labels of any kind... just my thoughts. Peace... :)
@@bigguncannon1
I thought they were released as a double a side
Queen is the only band where every member wrote a no1 single, super talented
The beatles did as well
@@liamjohnston5099 I don't know why you'd feel the need to make that up? Its not true.

The song predates Sir Mix-a-Lot Baby Got Back by like 16 years 😯
@@PhysicalGraffiti97
The standards of society are definitely much lower today. ☹
Skinny girls had fat bottoms Thick girls had big butts. Yes there was a different after Mix-A-Lot.
that’s practically two decades!
What's your point?
@@frankiezap sir mix alot thought he wrote a song about something no other guy sang about. He is incorrect.
Freddie was so theatrical and so completely committed to performance it brings a ton of juice to the audience. Reminds me of Bob Seager's line "Ever ounce of energy you try to give away" and he fires energy into the crowd like a laser cannon.
The fact a gay man made the first mainstream "big booty bitches" song is fucking hilarious
Edit: this comment thread is full of internet know it alls beware
he was very Bi, he had fun with everyone :)
false
he was Promiscuous, go learn the meaning
It was Brians song!
@@RoverWaters tell me why he wasn't bi.
@Rhonda Allan no, that isnt promiscuous. Having the abilty to have an intimate relationship and attraction with a man or a woman is called Bisexuality.
Promiscuity is a person who likes to have intimate relationships with two or several people at once.
Can a person be monogamous and bisexual? The answer is yes.

She is absolutely adorable, love her reactions to the songs. Love love love her!
It's the positivity, the smile and those eyes. She's unusually beautiful to begin with. Brad is a lucky man and he knows it, I wish the very best for both of them.
Y'all cracked me up so hard discussing this one.
Brads " manly moustache" was the killer comment for me,! Totally clueless!
"It's heart warming!"
Brad - "is it defined by the amount of juice in the butt, or the shape?"
That needs be a t-shirt!
🤣
Asking the great philosophical questions that need answering.
brad is asking all the right questions :D
Idk how but I read this comment at the exact time he said it and I can't stop laughing now 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Truer words, truer words!..
The "Live Aid" Queen performance is legendary and considered one of the best live performance of all time.......
Classic performance
Lap of the Gods from that is otherworldly. Whole show really, but that songs one of the best ever (for me)
One of the best live preformances ever!
An amazing showman with a 4 octave range and excellent musicians behind him. That equals something special.
Brad: “This dude must really love the girls!”
...... : mmmmmm, not as much as you think.
Hysterical 🤣. Great response.
Lol. Man or woman, he made room for all those big booties.
He was bi so he loved both
Lol
And the love of his life was Mary
Under pressure live at Wembley 86. Incredible performance. Also who wants to live forever from the same concert. Two incredible vocals.
That entire concert is magic. Freddie's improv is heaven.
Brad and Lex may I suggest watching Queen's live -aid performance.
Queen's music has so much heart and soul poured into it. Not to mentioned each and every member was skilled beyond belief. I dare anybody to not like Queen. Truly the greatest of all time.
"A ballad to big ol' buts" is i think is the greatest sentance ever spoken on UA-cam. Love you guys. All my best from England. ❤
Freddie was the best frontman rock and roll ever saw.
Y'all are my new favorite reaction Duo! Insightful, intelligent an entertaining as f***! Keep doing what you doing! Love y'all
The look on your face Brad when you are listening to the lyrics. Too priceless 🤣🤣🤣
I grew up listening to Queen , me and my friends used to scream this at the top of our lungs whilst riding around the village on our bicycles. This and I want to ride my bicycle we’re two of our favourites 💖💖
Brad always looks like that! They are both great but Lex is *£&*@££ adorable with it!
Haha that in depth discussion about butts.
Love you guys. 🤘
I have to say. Watching you two react to rock and metal while I do dab rips after a hit night in the kitchen a beautiful thing.
Definitely makes the end of my day much more productive towards enjoyable R&R.
Thank you Brad and Lex.
This is my ringtone on my phone. Love the looks I get when it rings in the store.
Watching you two enjoy the songs of my time is glorious. The love you get from them and the joy/excitement you show, God bless!
"If it's real, it doesn't matter how big it is". That makes me feel much better.
You've got to watch any live songs from Queen, the way Freddie works and audience is sublime!
The harmonies in this song have always blown my mind!
"Is the defined by the juice in the butt or the shape?"
Queen really makes you think about the real questions in life
Freddie had that unique ability to be not only a rock star (and possibly best front man ever) but also an incredibly talented singer.
If you haven't already, check out "Don't Stop Me Now" (it's my go-to happy song) and "Under Pressure" from Wembley in 86. You'll see how Freddie controlled 80,000+ people without breaking a sweat.

You guys are so cute together, and I love how you go into these songs with NO PREJUDICE'S

Oh, y’all *totally* need to see the companion song Freddie wrote, “Bicycle Race” - the video will surprise you !

@@KevinSchmitt77 yes it is and there's also a line from bicycle race that mentions fat bottomed girls.
I would recommend buying the album for the accompanying poster
@@Fakename70 YES!

This song never fails to bring a smile to my face
Having seen this tour when he says get on your bikes and ride they had multiple large very naked women riding 10 speed bikes on stage
There wasn't safe bottom in the house when Freddie was on the prowl you'd be surprised at the range of bottoms he'd go for.
He didn't go for just any bootie, he went for all the bootie.
Freddy is a God..His voice is unmistakeable, Incredibly powerful, melodic..there will never be another Freddy Mercury.
I wouldn't say hes a God is just say yeah he's a good singer n song writer.
The Bradster was FEELING this one!
Back in the day, big girls were considered undesirable, and there for desperate and easy. This is the ballad to thank them for being many men's first due to the perceived approachability. It ain't right, but it's a great song anyhow.
@mark tamayo I am glad you have no faults and yet remain so accepting of others. You sound nice, let's be friends.
There is an old country saying "Bones are for dongs. Meat is for men."
I think there have ALWAYS been men who prefer their women not anorexic.
@mark tamayo and you aren't? Coming here, seeing how others react to things, learning how to appear normal. I think you protesteth too much.
I may not know much, but I know what I like!

One of my favorite Queen songs
Its my ring tone👍💯❤

The video for Don't Stop Me Now has that iconic short haired Freddie before the mustache. Must have been around 1980. Looks good!
Shaun of the dead with that song lol
A few other raunchy Queen tunes worth checking out are "Tie Your Mother Down" and "Get Down, Make Love" as well as "Bicycle Race".

what a great song.. and love ur response to it… freddy was so unique in the music industry… he is an icon...
Queen will rock you and touch your soul at the same time.
'The Show Must Go On' 'We Are The Champions' & 'It's a Kind Of Magic' are well worth a look. 🤘
Should really start at their beginning,, first album. Then a larger picture opens up. Follow the progression.
Best analysis of this one I’ve seen 🤣🤣🤣
It's awesome watching you react to Queen. Such a great band, and your reactions just add to it all. Tina Gilbert pretty much nailed it with her comment, so I won't repeat those things. I do recommend you watch the movie Bohemian Rhapsody. Fantastic movie that tells a big part of the Queen story.
😂 Freddie wouldn't want any fat bottom 'girls', he was gay! 😅 ❤ Love him, best singer ever!
Actually he was bisexual as his greatest love of his life was a woman (he did write a song " love of my life" dedicated to her).
Maybe your best reaction yet, love seeing you both cracking up. Brad, Freddy was full if testerone but was playing for the other team, just saying.
Their Live Aid performance is legendary, a must watch.

Single greatest discussion about song meaning ever!!!
Need to do the classic "Another One Bites the Bust" by QUEEN.
The greatest rock vocalist to ever grace the planet. A one of one, we will never see another Freddie.
Roger Taylor’s drumming = SUBLIME 🔥
You guys are so entertaining!
Freddie was very flexible, a quality I appreciate.
This is basically an ode to groupies.
Flexible? Lol!
"Oooow won't you take me home tonight?" The nicest booty-call ever !
Yes!! Hopefully you guys can check out more from Queen!! Bicycle Race, I Want to Break Free, Don't Stop Me Now, and Hopefully you guys eventually give Riders On the Storm by The Doors a listen!
I love his suspenders and chest/stomach/back hair. It’s hilariously great.
Brian wrote the song. Freddie liked guys.
Juice in the butt, BWAHAHAHAHA, Brad you crack me up. The genius of Freddie will never be matched. It can't happen.
Freddie called himself bisexual, some today say he was gay, but I go with what Freddie said. This is a really fun song.❤️
Queen had so many great songs in the 70s WE WILL ROCK YOU ,, WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS ,, BOHHEMIAN RHAPSODY ,SOME BODY TO LOVE FAT BOTTOM GIRLS
I agree with ya Deb!!

"I've got mortgages and homes, I've got stiffness in my bones, ain't no "beauty queens" in this locality... but I still get my pleasure, still got my greatest treasure, heap big woman you done made a big man of me."
If it works for you, the hell with everybody else. :)
Over here, UK, Fat bottomed girls has been omitted from Queen’s re issued greatest hits album… thank goodness I’ve the original vinyl album..
You gotta do Who wants to live forever to really appreciate his awesome vocal range. Then Love of my Life..
"Love Of My Life" for sure. Tear-jerker.

Hey guys, I just came across your videos today. I've watched about 9 videos. These are all great jams I grew up listening to and still listen to today. I have a bunch of suggestions, but 2 for now. Surprised to see you haven't done a George Thorogood song yet. Most famous is Bad to the Bone. But listen to One bourbon, one scotch, one beer. The story line is of that era. I like how he goes into detail with his lyrics when he tells his story. Sounds like two different songs.
Another recommendation is Three Dog Night....Never Been to Spain. Very smooth flowing and enjoyable song. Look forward to seeing your reactions to those two songs.
Alright, take it easy...and if it's real easy, take it twice. Ha
Note that Roger Taylor, the drummer, does the fantastic drums as well as the higher pitched harmonies. So good at what he does!
One of the best singing drummers around.
This song is so fun! I used to think it had a southern rock sound and when I was younger I though Leonard Skynard sang it, lol! Love this song!
Freddie could sing any style
Ah hell! Now that's funny...
@@scottcooksey5284 - Haha!
Who is going to tell Brad, Freddie was not into fat bottom girls.
Freddie was missing out lol
i like the way you revealed that little fact!
My very first concert 1982, I was 12 years old. My brother took me ( 9 yrs older ) and it was Queen he took me to go see! I feel so lucky! My favorite band!
Queen were a great live band. You should react to their performance at Live Aid in 1985.
I’m hedging that Lex would be all giddy to see Brad prance about the front room in Freddie-like black pants & flashy suspenders 🤩😉
Brad's scientific method analysis is always the best...
I'm so happy to see you going through my entire discography 😁 Keep going ❤
Love this song!! Brian wrote this song for Freddie cuz he did appreciate “junk in the trunk” in both men & women 😉 But you gotta see this song performed live in Milton Keynes 1982. It’s completely Fire 🔥🔥🔥 Freddie even pole dances with the scaffolding!! 🔥🔥🔥 It’s HOT 🥵 OMG!! The companion song to this is called BICYCLE RACE (written by Freddie) inspired by the Tour de France! Let me just say it’s a bicycle race (wink wink). 🚴🚴🏻♂️🚴♀️🚴
Great reaction! Brad is as animated as Lex, so it's even better.
I love your reactions, guys! Please react to Another One Bites The Dust live version! 😁
Thee Original “Baby Got Back”!! Dr. Brian May Wrote This He Was Crushing On His Nanny!! 🔥🔥
Despite the epic tune, Ironically Freddie it seems wasn't really into girls, he had a long time relationship with a dude at a time when such relationships were frowned upon if not illegal in a lot of places.
There is a reason he named the band "Queen".
He was bi though and always referred to his female ex fiancee as the love of his life and she got most of his estate in his will.
But he loved Mary Austin and left her part of his estate.
Brian wrote this one I think!
@@BunniMonster Freddie came up with Queen because he wanted a royal sounding name. I don't think it had to do with sexuality since the other 3 members we all straight.
@@neillenet291
He said that (And it's obvious that) he was fully aware of "Queen" referring to gay men and enjoyed the multiple interpretations, in fact he constantly referenced liking these connotations that were separate from the royal interpretation and wanted to shock and be outrageous. He said he preferred people to see it in the royal sense but that the other meaning had played a part in the naming process. The band wasn't very happy with the change of name from Smile to Queen but Freddie always got his way.
Love your guys reactions every time ….😆😆
