- This Is The Brian May Band Performing Live At The Brixton Academy 1993 Great Quality And What A Show Brian Put On A Dazzling Performance Im So Glad This Was Filmed Hope You Enjoy This As Much As I Did.
The 2 female backup singers 😍
I know, right?
👍
Probably the best cover of this song ever. Great energy, excellent singing & superb musicianship!
I was at that concert and the wall of sound was unbelievable. First class band. No one plays this song like Cozy - true class and talent. And of course Brian is well... just a legend.
I was there, too. Not to take away from the band, but Brixton Academy has great acoustics! Seen some fantastic shows, there!
When I saw Brian May do this at the Edinburgh Playhouse the whole place went absolutely bananas. Cozy did the 1812 Overture for his drum solo, utterly magnificent.
As much as Brian loved Freddie and his Queen brothers, I bet he loved doing this because it was HIS show and he got to show his true talent as a singer, player, and performer......at the beginning of LOVE OF MY LIFE, you could feel this great gentleman ready to cry.....Freddie is up in Heaven thinking, “Damn!! This guy is a hell of a frontman!!
You watch him on stage you hear him play and sing, and you never think oh yeah he's an astrophysicist. He is such an intelligent man, a book publisher, 3D stereoscopic expert, animal rights activists, he just goes on and on.
Jack of all trades, an awesome guy all around he is, he deserves HUMANITARIAN OF THE YEAR, 2021, and this is probably the best song on this new released album, love the whole thing to be honest ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Phenomenal musician …….. and Guitarist
Yeah, it's not bad, but not as good as Graham Bonnet
Nailed it.
I heard he rescued a baby elephant that was surrounded by a pride of lions too
Great cover by Brian and band!
They so rocked it!
RIP Cozy!
Hell of a cover on this song, love it
I never knew Brian May sang lead vocals. He actually sounds really good!
Cozy on drums
Gone but NEVER forgotten. 🥁
Cozzy is my preferred drummer
Yes!
I always thought Cozy and George Harrison looked alot alike.
@@tammybilliter9840 Cozy looks more like Keith Emerson.
Brian singing, Cozy playing drums ... how did i ever miss this???? WOW!!! Awesome cover!!!
Oh man i didnt know brian could sing so good, now i love him even more!!!
Wow, i never realised Brian May has a voice as good as he has, as good as some, better than others, when in a band with the late great Freddie Mercury you are most always ever likely to be second best, there were not many who could hold a candle to him, and that fella had range, even when seriously ill he was still better than most, he proved he could adapt to any style, so sorely missed, R.I.P Freddie.
I Wish UA-cam Had A 💕 Icon Instead Of Just Like Or Dislike
Just Sayin' LMFAO
Wow... people from Whitesnake, Rainbow, Queen... playing a Russ Ballard's (and Ritchie Blackmore) masterpiece. And doing it great, as always. Thank you, Mr. May, for your music and this now far in time show. From another stargazer (although only amateur, in my case...)
Wow....this is classic Rainbow tune that I thought couldn't be matched...Brian fucking killed it.
A classic Russ Ballard song
@@andrewpark2050 still Rainbow arrangement . Ballards was quite different
WOW! Had no idea May could sing like that! Totally rockin' voice.
He is talented in many ways. Writer, player, and singer.
Cathy Porter and Shelley Preston are two of the best and hottest backup singers.
amen
A very good live performance of this song. Brian and his mates do the song justice.
Had no idea Brian could sing those notes in lead fashion
Queen&Rainbow!!!
This is what Rock is all about! Music from the 60s and 70s was awesome, so much real talent in those eras!
I absolutely LOVE Brian May,KING OF THE GUITAR !!!!!
Queen and Rainbow are bands that I love and I'm here for both. I love this version! 💞
Holy crap! I love this song and he did a great version!!!!
brian may band rocks
Pure class!
A FANTASTIC COVER!!!!
This shows just how talented of a showman Brian May is.He took a subpar song and turned it into a song he just killed it on
A subpar song ? It's a brilliant pop song. It's been covered by great artists for 40 yrs, because it's a fantastic song
Turned it into what 😅 all he did is play the Rainbow arrangement
@@rabfallon4507 The arrangement is different with the sharing of vocals of men and women. Also Brian conveys more emotion in his vocal delivery.
Brian May...all the way!
Such an amazing talent. Each and every member of Queen were amazing and could have gone on to individual careers in their own right. Together, they were legendary!
Graham Bonnet is the vocalist that nails this song on the head but Brian May did a fantastic job (brilliant guitarist).
Spot on, was going to say the same.
Brian May and those vocals=fire Cozy and those heavy hands...man he's missed :-( But those back up singers though.....giggity
Cozy Powell! R.I.P. Great cut!!!
My favorites, two of my masters of the guitar! Blackmore & May! And with Cozy Powell playing this song!!!
Viva Brian por ser sonido Queen !!! 👍
Damn!!!! This was really REALLY good! Great way to usher in the weekend!
Love Brian.
What a great version, so good live! Brilliant intro, terrific energy. The band is great, singers are incredible and Brian is awesome. Great song from Russ Ballard...
Anyone here in 2019? Also, I miss Cozy.
Gabe R. No. None of us are here. You just imagined it. Is there anything more annoying on UA-cam than the people who always come up with different versions of “who is listening in…? “
Right here , Gabe...November 2019....!!
Thanks Tim Sanderson
Here in 2020.
2021
I have been in love with those backup singers for over 20 years.
Particularly with their nipples, hair and voices, of course :)
But, of course!
It's hard to compare Rainbow and Brian May. I give the edge to Brian because of the opening on the Hammond. Otherwise, two great versions. It was a great era for rock; long may it live!
One of them was from bucks fizz Shelly Preston in leather pants too
@@mehernoshtarapore8902 Indeed..Shelley was hot i saw 3 of these shows.
awesome, what an energy! i love it!
What a stunning version this is!!!
bloody great version.. cracking band !!!
O will be seeing him this October in Toronto again for my 8th time
them backup singers not only pretty but able to get that voice going as hell for a complete show
goodness
Awesome version of a fabulous song by true rock gods; whats not to love?
Awesome lineup.....Cozy Powell RIP.....Best Hard Rock Drummer Ever!
That organ solo brought tears to my eyes. Powerful stuff; great version of "Since you've Been Gone"
ONE OF MY FAvorite Peformances Of Any Band I Ve SEEN ...This Is Live Raw And ROCKIN.....!!!!
Son bought me the video for my 40th in 1984--still love watching it!
I can't get passed those two fine back up singers lol
They looked even better live! I know, cos I was there....
They were cold.
Excellent cover by Brian
Brilliant version..
Neil Murray on Bass, Cozy on the Drums. Brilliant.
I play this every night before I go to sleep. LOVE THAT IT WAS COLD IN THERE!!!!!
wow this is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what a voice
I never knew he had such good singing voice
Great version thanks Mr May and your vocally awesome backing singers...
its not a version its a copy...
I don't think it's an exact copy for a number of reasons: (1) Mr May and those two beauties share the lead vocal, not like Mr Bonnet in the original (2) The girls add a slightly higher and extended vocal line at the end of the refrain (on "ever since you've been goooone") (3) the guitar solo is slightly different (4) in the bridge Mr May wimps out of the high note. Therefore a version... but I agree it's very similar which is why I like it!
Simon Pieman however I respect mr May very much, he cant sing like bonnet, that's why he shared the lead vocal with two ladies... yes, there is something defference but I cant say that its a new version....
rainbow did not even do the original theirs was a cover, just saying , in fact 3 bands recorded it before rainbow including the original composer
*****
Of champagne glass dimensions are they not?
Vladimír Dvořák THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR SOLO ORGAN... Guitar... too...!!!
great cover
Son bought me the cassette in 1994 for my my birthday still watch it and still play the dc in the car
I fucking love this , right up there with Rainbow.OMG...!!!!. best cover I've heard.
Great cover of this song, I love it
Kickass cover!
Cozy did make a power drumming and Graham Bonnet sang it perfectly, the song was written by Russ Ballard but it is indeed Ritchie’s, Brian is a superb musician and we know he has a great admiration to Ritchie, this is a tribute
I was there and it was awesome.
Love This!!!!!
This song brings up so much emotion.
wow brilliant version...
What a lucky find! Thanks for sharing!
his voice on this is fucking amazing
Great version.
Brian johnson his is actually the best version I've ever heard.
Cripes. Blew my mind away...brilliant.
and the backing singers are fit too!!!
Good singing by all of them. 🧐
yea i was at the whitley bay gig in 1993 and that night rocked,brian great guitar vocals,cozy awsome,spike brill,neil supper,oh and the chicks were ok lol
Staysafe everyone sending love from headway Nottingham UK xxx
Cannot believe May. Where does he pluck his genius from? Yes, he doesn't quite have Bonnet's range, but my god, the man is amazing. Great song. Great cover. I like the fact there are women back up singers, different element to the original.
It's one of those songs with such a notable and outstanding hook, much like "Jumpin' Jack Flash" and "You Really Got Me", it's not difficult for anyone to make it sound great. Good ol' basic rock-n-rolling riff. I'm guessing the audience was not expecting this after that spacey 2-minute long organ lead-in.

Lengthy keyboard solo probably covered for a stage reset, maybe. Brilliant cover. Rocks the house, eh?
Going to see him tonight ! Awesome cover....!
Oh my those back up singer....lord lord lord : )
Yes, great version.
terrific!
I just watched a clip of Graham Bonnet doing this song with Yngwie Malmsteen on guitar - the "solo" was horrendous. Brian nailed this and a great performance on being a part of the song
Master
AHHHH, finally an equal version to Head's East, with the keyboards soaring, the back up vocals blistering, the guitars just on fire.
Thank you so much Brian.
Yes, Ladies, he is a rocket scientist!!!!
Sensacional...
I think that part from 4:06 is directly dedicated to Freddie.
I get that kinda feeling by looking at Brian.
I also like Head East' cover of this song. Great song!
really good
Got to see Cozy Powell back in 1986 with Emerson, Lake & Powell ...but would love to have been there to see him with Brian May do this great cover of the big Rainbow hit.
Yeah! Grandmaster Cozy Powell a.k.a. "The Hammer" on drums! What a force!!! Passed away way too soon... R.I.P.! thanx for uploading :-)
those backup singers 😍😍😍😍😍
It's worth noting that this is a direct copy of Rainbow's version of the song, not Russ Ballard's version. May is an unabashed fan of Ritchie Blackmore, it's nice to see him playing Blackmore's arrangement.
Not to mention, Cozy Powell on drums.
Cover rather than copy
It's not a direct copy
It's probably also worth noting that Brian was also personally responsible for the backing singers' choreography including even the 'freestyling' during the guitar solo...
Cozy was attributed with their costume design...
Some Like It HOT! 8
Bloody hell ...I really was not expecting that ... Well done mate ... Well done indeed ... Bloody brilliant !
Great version from a massive rainbow fan
nothing but.... thank you, Brian. where does your creativity end?
Hopefully, We'll Never See It End. Musical Genius Like Brian's Should Live On FOREVER !!!
Amazing performance the back up girls have amazing voices I like it more then the original
that was awesome!
Spike is awesome on that keyboard!
