One Year of Love is a little gem from this same film, featuring John and Freddie. Might not get the likes for you to listen but comment readers should. Freddie soars.
Anything from this Wembley concert is incredible. Freddie had that huge audience in the palm of his hand the entire time, I think they would have walked over hot coals for him. My favourite at Wembley though, is Now I’m Here. There’s an energy from the whole band, not just Freddie who is having the time of his life. I thoroughly recommend it. And one other is White Queen live at the Odeon Hammersmith 1975. The song wasn’t one of their hits, but is a firm favourite among Queen fans.
100% agree .... Freddie was literally EVERYWHERE on that stage. I was constantly repositioning to see him as he ran all over the place .. amazing concert!
LOVE this song!! PRINCES OF THE UNIVERSE from the Highlander movie! Awesome! Another great song from Highlander is ONE YEAR OF LOVE and GIMME THE PRIZE (a banger). Btw, love Brian’s hair!!
I love this song ... the passion, intensity and power is mesmerising. No Freddie not diagnosed ... this was written for the movie Highlander about immortals who were destined to fight each other and when they fell in love they never aged but suffered the loss of every love they had. So who “wants to live forever, when love must die” . 🔥👑❤️ Great reaction 👏👏👏👏
thank you. i guess its easy to see why i would ask the question... yet how relatable to highlander it is. after i asked that all i had was sad thoughts, to think he may been carrying that burden whilst performing that song...
I am 100% convinced he did carry the burden alone for a very long time. This performance was 1986 so he was not diagnosed with full blown AiDS (1987) but I suspect he knew there was a problem. 😢
@@PavTV my admiration of Freddie rocketed through the skies on November 24th 1991 ... that may seem weird as it was the day he died but let me explain. He and Jim Beach their manager released a statement confirming he had AIDS the day before he died!! Freddie knew he would die quickly because he had stopped taking the medications keeping him alive approximately 2 weeks earlier. So we hear the news of his illness and a day later the news that he had died ... I remember bursting into tears and thinking what a true gentleman and amazingly thoughtful person to minimise the impact on his loved ones and close friends .... he knew how horrible the press coverage would be and kept the window as tight as possible knowing that his death would reduce their vitriolic and homophobic comments by timing it the way he did. Freddie seemed to think it was his job to take care of everybody else ... a very generous and loving soul. Brian wrote in the bands tribute song “No one but you” to Freddie, “I guess we'll never understand, The sense of your leaving, Was it the way it was planned? “ ... I do not recommend you listen to this yet ... please explore as much as possible before. He kept his condition secret for a very long time, he didn’t even share what was wrong with the Brian, Roger and John until about a year or so before he died ... so for at least 2/3 years he carried this alone. The strength of the man physically, vocally and his incredible life force makes the feeling of loss every November 24th very hard to bear. I really hope you focus on lots of the incredible music created by Queen ❣️🎶🔥 and by also by Freddie away from Queen (solo albums and operatic work) without getting too impacted by the AIDS diagnosis .... he left an amazing music legacy for which he wanted to be remembered rather than because of his illness . Sorry rambled on a bit but hopefully this gives a bit more insight to “Mr Fahrenheit” ( song = “Don’t stop me now”)
White queen is amazing in Hammersmith 1975 or Freddie and piano alone in You take my breath away at Hyde Park or if you want to see the entire audience singing to Freddie and Brian, do Love of my life, either in Rio or at Wembley.
Wonderful reaction!! Could you please do Queen - "White Queen" - Live at the Hammersmith Odeon 1975. A true masterpiece!! Your goosebumps will thank you.
Oh it’s up there. The shame is that there are a limited number of live performances of this song. Brian wrote this for a movie. And That’s the gift, Freddie just takes their lyrics to another level. Brian & Freddie were an amazing duo.
Made the movie Highlander..along with A kind of Magic and 3 others. Mary Austin said he knew he was HIV positive which is why he said he could not tour anymore after this Magic Tour. He found out he was full blown AIDS in April 87'. Roger said too that after Freddie said he couldn't do it anymore that Freddie must have known that something wasn't quite right. He was getting very tired and the concerts took it out of him. Freddie was aware he had it then in 86.
I guess Another one bites the dust is a great song to continue! Or Show must go on, that's the one that can give you more insight about Freddie's illness and his attitude towards it, very powerful and emotional song
This song has nothing to do with Freddies story, although it is easily seen as. You were saying about it sound like it's from an 80's film. You're spot on! It was wrote, by Brian May for the film, Highlander in 86. The film is about immortals who can only die by getting their heads chopped off (another Queen song taken frim the album this is, is called, "Don't lose your head") The song is about an immortal falling in love with a mortal
Great reaction! The live versions of this song tends to be fantastic. It is one of the best songs Brian wrote. The song doesn't really have any lower parts, it is a difficult song to sing. What is good about the live version is that Freddie did not use distortion, so you really get a far more operatic sound. The studio version is very beautiful as well with a whole orchestra, and Brian also sings sections of the studio version. But I do prefer the live version with only Freddie singing, this song really suited his voice. The power in Freddie's voice is really astonishing. And it can also be deceptive, because Freddie's voice a lot of those darker undertones, especially at this time, it can sound as if he is singing lower then what he is actually singing.
@@PavTV I might expand a bit further, maybe it might be interesting to someone. It is actually very rare to find powerful male voices in popular music, you are far more likely to find very powerful female singers in popular music, that is especially true in popular music today. Some part of the reason for that is because most of the female singers within popular culture are Mezzo Sopranos. Mezzo Soprano is within the middle range of the female voice. It is not the highest voice and it is not the lowest voice. In opera Soprano voices are the most valued. The voice works by weight, higher voices or generally if you want to sing higher you will have a lighter voice, and high frequencies. As you sing lower you will have a heavier and darker voice with low frequencies. Voices becomes thinner the higher you sing. Those lower and darker frequencies creates a far more powerful, bigger and fuller sound to the voice. That is why we often see more powerful female singers, Mezzo Sopranos being in the middle register of the female voice, naturally tends to have darker and more powerful voices. There are some other voice types but they are very rare, Ariana Grande for example is a Soprano. Contralto is always the rarest, Cher is an example of a Contralto. Mezzo Sopranos are also generally the most common type of female voice you can find. Male voices are naturally lower then female voice often by more then an octave. Unlike female voices the most common male voice in popular music is the Tenor voice. In the general male population the most common voice is also the middle voice, which is the Baritone voice. Tenors being the highest male voice also have lightest, thinnest or softest tone. The Tenor voice is by far the most popular male voice. On top of that these Tenors push their voices far beyond their normal range, or you get baritones who have to sing far beyond their normal range to create that light tone of voice. They use mixed voice or falsetto to make their voices as soft and light as possible in order to sing higher. People expect far more from male singers then female singers, male singers are singing in the Mezzo Soprano range instead of their real tenor range. The general vocal range for a tenor is C3 - C5, the range for a Mezzo Soprano is A3 - A5. so there is quite a difference. Male singers are expected to hit A5 or even higher notes such as B5's and C6 notes at times. Most Mezzo Sopranos in popular music cannot even hit those G5, A5, B5 or C6 notes. So you end up with a lot of powerful female singers who darkens the tone of their voices and lot of very light, thin and delicate sounding male voices. Each category of the voice are divided into sub categories, as well. There is one category in those voice types that is the expectation to the rule. While Sopranos and Tenors do have the lightest sounding voices, you also get Dramatic Sopranos and Dramatic Tenors. These categories of voices are actually rich, heavy and powerful despite the fact that they can sing high notes as well. They can sing high notes with the fuller sounding lower frequencies. Freddie was a Dramatic Tenor. In this example Freddie did hit the Tenor high C5 note in full chest voice. But as a Dramatic Tenor with those natural lower frequencies in his voice, you can easily it miss it, a Dramatic Tenor's voice does not become thin and lighter when they sing higher, it just sounds more powerful. There are no Dramatic Tenors within popular music right now that I can think of. It is quite rear most people are just Lyric Tenors. That is why Freddie's voice tends to be powerful.
wow, fantastic.. you might want check out the other official videos of this song that would remind you of that movie "Highlander".. 🙂... please do react on "I Want it All" official video 👍
Loved this reaction dear 😁❤ so genuine, thats what counts for me. Queen were 4 amazing artists and Freddie was one of a kind. I love that we can enjoy still in 2020. Much bless and keep up the good work.
Thank you my lovely 🙌🙌 always genuine, I’ll always say if I don’t like the song either. Better to be real than fake right?! 😁 Can’t wait to get stuck into more. Thank you for supporting the channel 💖
I saw Queen several times beginning in 1975 when I was just 18 and dell un love. Saw them several more times and still in love 50 years later and will be forever.
This song was written for the movie "The Highlander". Imagine becoming immortal, only to watch the love of your life age, and eventually die in your arms...
Pav, you obviously enjoy great music and great singers. So, if you haven't already done a reaction video for it then I seriously recommend that you react to Disturbed sound of silence.
This is such a fantastic and powerful song written by Brian May. I love it more every time I hear it. Brian wrote this about (for) the movie Highlander. Thanks for reacting to it.
annoying thing is ive seen highlander, ok, as a youngster but for the life of me i cannot remember the song, might be time for a refresh. rip sean connery :(
Pav: It reminds me of an old-school 80s movie... This *was* an old-school 80s movie. :) Queen did the soundtrack for Highlander, a pretty cool movie that came out in the mid-80s, and this was one of the big songs that came out of that movie. Brian wrote this one. They also did the soundtrack for the 80s Flash Gordon movie, which was very different in tone, very campy and over the top. This was all before it was really a thing for big rock groups to do movie soundtracks, so they pretty much pioneered that. This concert was in '86, BTW. One year after Live Aid.
This was music made for the sound track for The Highlander, which came out in 1986. Queen did most all of the music, and it is stellar! The movie was about a man who was immortal (as long as he kept his head...he could not die). It is a an eyefull!...and earfull! The sound track is wonderfull!!
It IS music that played in a film from the eighties! - It's called "Highlander" - the lead is immortal - and must see his love age and die. When she dies this song is played.
Brian wrote this for the movie Highlander. The lead in this movie was immortal but the few women he fell in love grew old and died. This movie was very good and the Queen music throughout was perfect.
@@PavTV I know... and I sit here liking so many other suggestions, LOL. It's pretty iconic Queen so you'll probably get to them eventually. Another One Bites the Dust is another favorite. I will enjoy the ride... just like the NF Journey.
Aww, so bittersweet. Whenever I hear this I just remember Highlander, not Queen. Although for that reason I prefer the studio version. No shortage of breath there or the occasional scream from the audience. I mean I know that he could pull it all live as well so I don't need the proof. But I would rather listen to it the way it was first intended to sound like... Nah, I just want to hear the Highlander version, that's all :D He was diagnosed one year later. So no, he didn't know then... but the irony, right? Plus that talk "we're gonna stay together until we die" at the beginning. Loved your unintentional mention that this sounds like from an 80s movie :D Spot on!
oh dasha, sis please tell me... what would any of my reactions be without your attention to detail huh :D honestly you complete the videos on Pav TV lol!! the only person to grab that unintentional movie reference lol, then it just so happens to be from a 80's movie lol yeah the irony is unreal, which is what made me ask that question... imagine if he carried that burden performing the song :(
It's so funny to hear you say that it reminds you of music that would've been in "those 80s movies". Yep, this was in 1986's "Highlander" movie, for which they did the soundtrack. (The whole "A Kind of Magic" album is basically that film's soundtrack.)
To me, this is one Queen song which shows why they called their band the Mothership. Where the sum is greater than the total of the parts. Really listen to the musical contribution of John Deacon. It would not have its impact without it. Same with Roger, a musical drummer. Then the emotion which Freddie was a master at. Then of course Brian May, who in the writing and production put together the best of what they could do together.
This was definitely before we became aware that Freddie was dying. Who Wants to live Forever was made for the film The Highlander. It's included on Queen's album It's a Kind of Magic. Other Queen tracks included on the same film are: Princes of the Universe and One year of Love, It's a kind of magic.
I sometimes have those hair standing on end moments, they are like OMG (Oh My God) moments. This song Who Wants to live Forever was written for the movie The Highlander with Christopher Lambert & Sir Sean Connery.
In addition to Brian May having built his own guitar, bassist John Deacon who has a degree in electronics, designed and built the amp Brian uses to get the guitar's unique sound.
Freddie suspected he had AIDS during this time, but it was written after Brian watched a scene from highlander where Connor watches his love grow old and die while he remains forever young. The movie was released in 1986 with A Kind of Magic as a companion album by Queen.
Freddie's actual time of diagnosis is up for debate. It is said he was diagnosed with AIDS in '87 but had some tests prior which likely resulted in an HIV diagnosis. However the song is not about Freddie. This song was actually written for the film "Highlander"(1986), and was apparently written after they were shown an early cut of the film. Queen did the soundtrack for the film and many of the tracks then made it onto the "A Kind of Magic" album.
An under rated part of Queen by those not used to them is how fantastic they harmonize. They sound so good singing together. Think only thing close for me was Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell. Something about those two together has always been amazing.
He hadn't been diagnosed yet, but we don't know for sure. It is coincidental though since this song, along with others, was written for the movie "The Highlander" which starred Sean Connery & Christopher Lambert. There have been several Highlander movies since, mostly bad, and a TV series based on it. Queen wrote most of the soundtrack for the original movie and another song "Princes of the Universe" was the opening credits song for the Highlander TV show. Yeah, I'm a Queen nerd, don't care lol. Best band ever. Great reaction.
It was used in the 80s movie called Highlander Brian May roses song his father was dying his marriage was breaking up and they knew there was something wrong with Freddy but didn't know what
Thanks gavin! 🔥🔥 since you’re the latest person to comment here. I’ll let you in on this: shortly I’ll be uploading my video to the official video to bohemian rhapsody 😁😁
Yeah the song was New at The time they did the Entire Soundtrack for The 1986 film Highlander they also did The Sondtrack for The 1980 film Flash Gordon they had a song in 1985 One Vision for the Film Iron Eagle starring Lou Gossett

I recommend you check out "Love of my Life" Wembley 86 as well as Innuendo in 1991 and Was it All Worth It? From The Miracle 1989
React to "White Queen" - live at Hammersmith 1975. Another Brian May's masterpiece, incredible performance.
Looks like your request is in the lead Jane 😁😁
One Year of Love is a little gem from this same film, featuring John and Freddie. Might not get the likes for you to listen but comment readers should. Freddie soars.
“White Queen” live from Hammersmith 1975 🔥🎶🔥
And many more 🤗
PS - Each member wrote a song for the movie “Highlander”...all good songs!
You want a complex song with multiple changes, epic power, meaningful lyrics...?
Try the “Innuendo” official video.
Oooooh yes, good suggestion!!!!!!!!
Anything from this Wembley concert is incredible. Freddie had that huge audience in the palm of his hand the entire time, I think they would have walked over hot coals for him. My favourite at Wembley though, is Now I’m Here. There’s an energy from the whole band, not just Freddie who is having the time of his life. I thoroughly recommend it. And one other is White Queen live at the Odeon Hammersmith 1975. The song wasn’t one of their hits, but is a firm favourite among Queen fans.
100% agree .... Freddie was literally EVERYWHERE on that stage. I was constantly repositioning to see him as he ran all over the place .. amazing concert!
LOVE this song!! PRINCES OF THE UNIVERSE from the Highlander movie! Awesome! Another great song from Highlander is ONE YEAR OF LOVE and GIMME THE PRIZE (a banger). Btw, love Brian’s hair!!
Brian May wrote this for the film Highlander.
One of the blessing's in my life are the concerts I was able to go to, and Queen was one of them in the late 70's. Enjoy
I Want It All.
Powerfull song 💪 more Queen 👏 "I want it all" official video 👏
I love this song ... the passion, intensity and power is mesmerising. No Freddie not diagnosed ... this was written for the movie Highlander about immortals who were destined to fight each other and when they fell in love they never aged but suffered the loss of every love they had. So who “wants to live forever, when love must die” . 🔥👑❤️

Damn... 🥺
@@PavTV my admiration of Freddie rocketed through the skies on November 24th 1991 ... that may seem weird as it was the day he died but let me explain.
He and Jim Beach their manager released a statement confirming he had AIDS the day before he died!! Freddie knew he would die quickly because he had stopped taking the medications keeping him alive approximately 2 weeks earlier. So we hear the news of his illness and a day later the news that he had died ... I remember bursting into tears and thinking what a true gentleman and amazingly thoughtful person to minimise the impact on his loved ones and close friends .... he knew how horrible the press coverage would be and kept the window as tight as possible knowing that his death would reduce their vitriolic and homophobic comments by timing it the way he did. Freddie seemed to think it was his job to take care of everybody else ... a very generous and loving soul.
Brian wrote in the bands tribute song “No one but you” to Freddie, “I guess we'll never understand, The sense of your leaving, Was it the way it was planned? “ ... I do not recommend you listen to this yet ... please explore as much as possible before.
He kept his condition secret for a very long time, he didn’t even share what was wrong with the Brian, Roger and John until about a year or so before he died ... so for at least 2/3 years he carried this alone.
The strength of the man physically, vocally and his incredible life force makes the feeling of loss every November 24th very hard to bear.
I really hope you focus on lots of the incredible music created by Queen ❣️🎶🔥 and by also by Freddie away from Queen (solo albums and operatic work) without getting too impacted by the AIDS diagnosis .... he left an amazing music legacy for which he wanted to be remembered rather than because of his illness .
Sorry rambled on a bit but hopefully this gives a bit more insight to “Mr Fahrenheit” ( song = “Don’t stop me now”)
Somebody to Love live in Montreal 1981 and Fat Bottomed Girls live at the Bowl 1982!
i've done somebody to love live in montreal :D
dragon attack Montreal 81 by Queen is one of many 50, 100? good ones
Almost all are good, and almost all interedting, so 300.
White queen is amazing in Hammersmith 1975 or Freddie and piano alone in You take my breath away at Hyde Park or if you want to see the entire audience singing to Freddie and Brian, do Love of my life, either in Rio or at Wembley.
Brian May song - written for the movie "highlander" -- see Brian started in keys.. but that guitar solo is so emotional...also notice Roger's vocals!
that guitar solo was amazing
Wonderful reaction!! Could you please do Queen - "White Queen" - Live at the Hammersmith Odeon 1975. A true masterpiece!! Your goosebumps will thank you.
Great suggestion!
Oh it’s up there. The shame is that there are a limited number of live performances of this song.
Brian wrote this for a movie. And That’s the gift, Freddie just takes their lyrics to another level. Brian & Freddie were an amazing duo.
Budapest Live version is steller too... dramatic stage moments.
Bro pls react to "Love of my life" live at rio 1985, hundred thousand crowd singing together with Fred
I see people mention the song is from Highlander but didn’t see mentioned that the whole film’s soundtrack was done by Queen.
Lol. I think I counted about 30 comments saying it was from highlander 😁 thanks for the added info on the soundtrack that’s actually pretty cool
Made the movie Highlander..along with A kind of Magic and 3 others. Mary Austin said he knew he was HIV positive which is why he said he could not tour anymore after this Magic Tour.

It was from an 80’s movie : “Highlander”
I guess Another one bites the dust is a great song to continue! Or Show must go on, that's the one that can give you more insight about Freddie's illness and his attitude towards it, very powerful and emotional song
andrea! thank you for the suggestion :D
Another one bites the dust. Innuindo white queen. The miracle
In the Lap of the Gods 74 @The Rainbow. Early Queen👑
Thank you for the suggestion Teresa
Thanks for subbing too! Got more queen coming soon for you guys 😁😁

Could you please react to the official video of I want to break free? Thank you
Brings me to tears every time! Every time!! Yes- he was diagnosed- written by Brian May-😭
Queen the show must go on please it's my all time favourite song ever ❤️ also new subscriber 🙂
Loved this reaction dear 😁❤ so genuine, thats what counts for me. Queen were 4 amazing artists and Freddie was one of a kind. I love that we can enjoy still in 2020. Much bless and keep up the good work.
Thank you my lovely 🙌🙌 always genuine, I’ll always say if I don’t like the song either. Better to be real than fake right?! 😁
Can’t wait to get stuck into more. Thank you for supporting the channel 💖
That red guitar of Brian’s was designed and hand made by he and his dad!
I saw Queen several times beginning in 1975 when I was just 18 and dell un love. Saw them several more times and still in love 50 years later and will be forever.
This song was written for the movie "The Highlander".
Imagine becoming immortal, only to watch the love of your life age, and eventually die in your arms...
The best of Freddie Mercury, in addition to what we hear and see, is that he loved his cats. Truly... 🖖🐢
But, yes for sure Freddie Mercury's quality is undoubted.
Freddie Mercury is an absolute legend.
Pav, you obviously enjoy great music and great singers.
So, if you haven't already done a reaction video for it then I seriously recommend that you react to Disturbed sound of silence.
Gotcha. Thanks for the suggestion brother 🙌
This is such a fantastic and powerful song written by Brian May. I love it more every time I hear it. Brian wrote this about (for) the movie Highlander. Thanks for reacting to it.
Couldn't agree more! thank you for watching and supporting the channel :D
Amazing, I know!!! A song written for Highlander, the movie. And Freddie's voice gave it such greatness
annoying thing is ive seen highlander, ok, as a youngster but for the life of me i cannot remember the song, might be time for a refresh. rip sean connery :(
Enjoyed how you picked up on the minute details. So glad you enjoyed this song and performance. Cheers!

Brian wrote this for the movie Highlander. The lead in this movie was immortal but the few women he fell in love grew old and died. This movie was very good and the Queen music throughout was perfect.
PLEASE do the We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions... I promise you will love it!!

most likes wins lauri you know the rules hehe... ;)
@@PavTV I know... and I sit here liking so many other suggestions, LOL.
It's pretty iconic Queen so you'll probably get to them eventually. Another One Bites the Dust is another favorite.
I will enjoy the ride... just like the NF Journey.
@@lauriwest435 hehe can’t wait 😁
@@PavTV HEYYYYY I see "Subscribers at 1K"
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Queen fans are the best fans and the nicest people!💓👑👏
Can’t believe you didn’t mention Rogers drumming in this song. It’s perfect.
I think it was the guitar. Captivated me lol
This song was for the movie "the highlander" with Sean (007) Conery.
Rip sean 🥺
@@PavTV Additionally, movie was about an immortal who fell in love with a mortal, then had to watch as she grew old and died.
Aww, so bittersweet. Whenever I hear this I just remember Highlander, not Queen. Although for that reason I prefer the studio version. No shortage of breath there or the occasional scream from the audience. I mean I know that he could pull it all live as well so I don't need the proof. But I would rather listen to it the way it was first intended to sound like... Nah, I just want to hear the Highlander version, that's all :D
He was diagnosed one year later. So no, he didn't know then... but the irony, right? Plus that talk "we're gonna stay together until we die" at the beginning.
Loved your unintentional mention that this sounds like from an 80s movie :D Spot on!
oh dasha, sis please tell me... what would any of my reactions be without your attention to detail huh :D
honestly you complete the videos on Pav TV lol!!
the only person to grab that unintentional movie reference lol, then it just so happens to be from a 80's movie lol
yeah the irony is unreal, which is what made me ask that question... imagine if he carried that burden performing the song :(
You have to watch Highlander! Christopher Lambert and Connery (RIP)
Arrr this is so frustrating because I watched the move as a kid but I for love or money cannot remember the song 🙈 RIP the greatest Bond 🙌
@@PavTV Yes, the best!! 007 forever!!
@@PavTV it was played when Heather his first wife died in his arms if I recall right.
Highlander was a film about a group of people who were immortal, hence who wants to live forever? They did the whole soundtrack
Live aid full set
It's so funny to hear you say that it reminds you of music that would've been in "those 80s movies". Yep, this was in 1986's "Highlander" movie, for which they did the soundtrack. (The whole "A Kind of Magic" album is basically that film's soundtrack.)
You would love White Queen live at Hammersmith, absolutely beautiful.
I did it...
But it got blocked in the US/Canada 😕
To me, this is one Queen song which shows why they called their band the Mothership. Where the sum is greater than the total of the parts. Really listen to the musical contribution of John Deacon. It would not have its impact without it. Same with Roger, a musical drummer. Then the emotion which Freddie was a master at. Then of course Brian May, who in the writing and production put together the best of what they could do together.
Go back to 1974 queen at the rainbow react to liar and stone cold crazy
This was definitely before we became aware that Freddie was dying.
Who Wants to live Forever was made for the film The Highlander.
It's included on Queen's album It's a Kind of Magic.
Other Queen tracks included on the same film are: Princes of the Universe and One year of Love, It's a kind of magic.
Brian May wrote this song for the movie "Highlander". That is where "there can be only one", comes from. 1986...
I sometimes have those hair standing on end moments, they are like OMG (Oh My God) moments.
This song Who Wants to live Forever was written for the movie The Highlander with Christopher Lambert & Sir Sean Connery.
"Who wants to Live Forever??" Freddie did...and his memory lives on. 🎧😎
Facts 🙏
One of the many superb tracks from the movie "Highlander"
In addition to Brian May having built his own guitar, bassist John Deacon who has a degree in electronics, designed and built the amp Brian uses to get the guitar's unique sound.
Freddie suspected he had AIDS during this time, but it was written after Brian watched a scene from highlander where Connor watches his love grow old and die while he remains forever young. The movie was released in 1986 with A Kind of Magic as a companion album by Queen.
Freddie's actual time of diagnosis is up for debate. It is said he was diagnosed with AIDS in '87 but had some tests prior which likely resulted in an HIV diagnosis. However the song is not about Freddie. This song was actually written for the film "Highlander"(1986), and was apparently written after they were shown an early cut of the film. Queen did the soundtrack for the film and many of the tracks then made it onto the "A Kind of Magic" album.
This is from a the soundtrack that they did for Highlander, which hadnt been released at the time of this concert
An under rated part of Queen by those not used to them is how fantastic they harmonize. They sound so good singing together. Think only thing close for me was Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell. Something about those two together has always been amazing.
they also did a video that was for this song as well
They wrote the songs for the movie Outlander..... I think it was called that. That was one of the songs.
☺️ I think there’s about 200 comments saying the song is from the movie the highlander 😄
Essentially the band Worked on about 3 film Soundtracks if you see the opening of the show your watching they open with One Vision
He hadn't been diagnosed yet, but we don't know for sure. It is coincidental though since this song, along with others, was written for the movie "The Highlander" which starred Sean Connery & Christopher Lambert. There have been several Highlander movies since, mostly bad, and a TV series based on it. Queen wrote most of the soundtrack for the original movie and another song "Princes of the Universe" was the opening credits song for the Highlander TV show. Yeah, I'm a Queen nerd, don't care lol. Best band ever. Great reaction.
thank you madice. ironically i've seen the movie when i was a youngster but cant remember any of the music. defo need to rewatch the movie
The drumming by Roger was the best I ever heard to compliment the song.
React to the Don’t stop be now scene from Shaun of the dead lol
i can try, good chance it'd get blocked on a visual copyright :(
It was used in the 80s movie called Highlander Brian May roses song his father was dying his marriage was breaking up and they knew there was something wrong with Freddy but didn't know what
Brian wrote this one for the movie Highlander
The song was written for a movie Highlander. If you watch it, you will understand.
The song was for the movie "Highlander"
Great reactions man!!! Please try 'The Prophet's Song' by Queen. Cheers 🥂
Yes I read he knew or had an idea ,,Ive read 5 of his books that came out ,,,,,,,I think he knew

@@maryannsavage3724 adding "watch Highlander", again, to my list of things to do.

🔥🔥🔥 thank you brother 🙌🙌🙌
Yes he was diagnosed by this time but it wasn’t yet public.
He was officially diagnosed in 1987, but he knew something was terribly wrong and stopped touring after this tour in 1986.
See you have 2 gods in one video, Bruce lee and Freddie Mercury
