You could tell how tight of a band they were at this late point in their history and just how agreeable they all were to experimenting with new sounds and direction in the creative process. Freddies vocals, as always, are perfection and you could tell he was having existential thoughts at this time in his life. Brian May on guitar links it all together by not conforming to 1 rigid way of playing and the drums and bass are as solid as ever. Queen was not just a band…they were theatre. As always, I love your channel and your reactions Maddy.
Thanks for not interrupting this masterpiece. Fun fact: the one and only time an outside member participated, Steve Howe of Yes on flamenco guitar. I rushed out and bought the cd the second i heard it. We all also had a feeling Freddy's life mayve been ending.
He was at the final stage of his Aids illness, and i feel the song is about keep training until the end of time, like he did till the very end of his life.
@@MaddyReactions Innuendo is the last act of one of the greatest characters to ever grace the stage. It's a song that managed to make me travel through space and time every time I listened to it with my eyes closed. In my opinion it is a masterpiece that combines Rock and a pinch of eccentric classic.
Amazing track. Love the video too. Very creative. They always wanted people to get many meanings from their songs….& yes I too believe it’s hopeful, “we’ll keep on trying, until the end of time”
More Queen/Freddie please! Here are some recommendations: Studio recordings: How can I go on One year of love Love me like there's no tomorrow Too much love will kill you A Winter's tale The great pretender Time waits for no one Let me in your heart again In my defence Breakthru I was born to love you Live performances: You take my breathe away - Hyde park 1976 In the lap of the gods revisited - Hammersmith 1975 White Queen (as it began) - Hammersmith 1975 Hammer to fall - Wembley 1986 July 12 & Budapest 1986 Who wants to live forever - Wembley 1986 July 11 Play the game - Milton keynes 1982 Save me - Montreal 1981 Somebody to love - Milton Keynes 1982 It's a hard life - Rio 1985 January We are the champions - Wembley 1986 July 12

@MichelRoelfsema to be exact, the innuendo album was released 9 months (February 1991) before Freddie Mercury's death (November 1991) so, about a year.
This was 1991 (the year Freddie Died] and kinda of a comeback album. It was their first number one in the US since "Under Pressure" in 1981. Freddie wrote the middle 8 first and Jonathan Taylor wrote the rest. Freddie Wanted a song about people trying to tell you how to live your life. The flamenco part was played by Steve Howe of Yes. First, non-member of Queen to play guitar on one of their songs.
This was close to Freddie's death, title track of their last album. I feel that a lot of this album was his swansong. Some of the track titles certainly made me feel so. Such as: I'm Going Slightly Mad, The Show Must Go On, These are the Days of Our Lives and of course this one. I've never researched it and no doubt proper Queen aficionados will comment more about it. In short though, this is a brilliant song and you summed it up quite beautifully.
They did this toward the end with Freddie and still had their mojo and could make great music still. For once the video went well with the tune, they just had 'It' until the very end. How about them at the beginning, young and hungry, establishing their unique sound and exhibiting the power and glory of Rock? From their first, ground breaking and killer debut album, self titled 'Queen', do Liar, do it studio original video then live 1974, it is a stunning song right off the bat and great composition, Freddie already shows his vocal mastery and Brian May and the band just show everyone that a new force is rising in rock. I saw their first 3 tours when they were conquering the world, live in the 70s they were Rock Gods! Enjoy. 🔥🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶🔥
Definitely one of their lesser known works, but an exceptional composition. This was the last album released in Freddie's lifetime. He was getting pretty sick by this point. Stylistically, even though this was at the end of Freddie's life, it is really reminiscent of their mid 70's era of large, exaggerated productions. Freddie sadly passed 9 months after it was released, and there was no tour.
Freddie always made you think about it, left us too soon...his showmanship was and still is unrivaled. Thanks for sharing💚

Innuendo was last album recorded by Queen in 1991.

Beautiful and amazing song!! Lovely reaction Maddy!! I hope you're enjoying a wonderful Sunday!! Much love for you!! 🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
There will never be another Freddy. Such a unique and powerful voice. Great reaction, Maddy! ❤❤❤🙏
🩷🩷🩷 such talent!!
There will never be another genius
My fav track of Queen without any doubt
He was at the final stage of his Aids illness, and i feel the song is about keep training until the end of time, like he did till the very end of his life.
I guess I would describe this song as "Not a Queen song for beginners" if that makes sense.
Yes!!! Totally makes sense
Freddie made this album on his death bed. The Greatest frontman ever. Steve Howe of YES playing the Spanish guitar.
✨️🎶🙏🎶✨️
Not really but it was recorded when the desease was in a point of not return
@@2011andresme sitting on the edge of it then?
Brian commented that Freddie took 2 shots of vodka and leaned on the mixing board while singing Show must on.
Highly eclectic work by Queen, not easy to pin down.
Right? What’s your interpretation?
@@MaddyReactions Same as the Beatles, They had the ability to morph thru the years, where so many don't.
True! 🩷
Fantastic song
Right?! What’s your take?

Hi and thank you for sharing
Queen performed also the light song titled "you don't fool me" after this album i guess
Thnk you 👍🫶⚘️
👍🏼😎I would tentatively say bulk of Queen songs are more in this style, the mainstream hits being the different ones, last album with Freddie
Oooh wow!!
Please react to Queen with Patti Russo.
Hah! Very TRUE🙏
Freddy was a character! Queen was awesome!
Agreed!!
Freddie ;-) But i do agree they where awesome.
released about a year before freddie mercury passed away
😭
No the album (Innuendo) was released in februari 1991, this song itself was released januari 1991. They record it a year before his death.
@MichelRoelfsema to be exact, the innuendo album was released 9 months (February 1991) before Freddie Mercury's death (November 1991) so, about a year.
@@neillenet291 Yeah i know like i said.
@@MichelRoelfsema sorry, I thought you were correcting me when you repeated what I saud

Jonathan Taylor? Like Jonathan Taylor Thomas? Didn’t know he was talented in that way.
Comeback album? Jonathan Taylor? What?
Wrong and wrong. Its Roger Taylor and it wasnt number 1 in the US.
Queen's only US number 1 album was The Game.
@@nortski78TY I get frustrated when people write odd wrong stuff about Queen
This is a Led Zepellin tribute, one of the favorites of Freddie and is the las Queen era, maybe the last album whit him in shape.
Oh wow!
@@MaddyReactionsfirst verse very similar to Kashmir

Swan song at its best.. Hats off.

Try Queen '39 - one of a kind for queen
Think the album came out the same year as Freddie died.
Are you gonna do a livestream again? Those are fun
His last piece of art before dying.
This song was a tip of the hat to Led Zeppelin's Kashmir.
Not what Brian says
