"My Melancholy Blues". "Millionaire Waltz", "Man on the Prowl", "Jealousy", Dreamer's Ball", "Seaside Rendezvous", "Just Keep Passing the Open Windows" and on and on...... So many hidden gems. Thanks.
You need to listen to Freddie’s collaboration with Montserrat Caballe (if you haven’t already), particularly Barcelona, How Can I Go On, Guide Me Home and Golden Boy. They did an entire album together.
Although originally a Brian solo song, this song also appeared on Queen's Made in Heaven album which appeared in 1995, four years after Freddie's death. I love both versions. There are probably a number of Queen songs you've never heard. Another beautiful ballad that you may not know is Save Me. Check out the live version from Montreal 1981. Subscribed.
One of the greatest power ballad ever written the original by Brian May is a beautiful acoustic this is pure power ballad ❤ a very special one to check out is Brian,Roger and John's farewell to Freddie its the final song they released together its from the greatest hits 3 album tracks called "no one but you" stunningly beautiful and powerful tribute to Freddie ❤have a fantastic one my friend stay safe take care all the very best from Scotland to you 👍 👊
This song was originally recorded by Brian May who co-wrote it with a couple other song writers, for his solo album "Back to the Light" Brian May performed this song live for the first time at the 1992 Freddie Mercury Tribute concert ( star studded and worth watching in its entirety). This version, with Freddie, was released in 1995 on the final Queen album featuring Freddie called "Made in Heaven" Brian's version is quite different featuring a gorgeous accoustic guitar solo. This version has, you heard and saw, a rocking and gorgeous electric guitar solo. Both versions are quite different but both are gold!! I love them equally for their unique sound.
Your reaction was so heartfelt, try " In My Defense " or "Breakthru " or "Pretender " there are SO Many Awesome songs have went under the Radar because of their Legendary Hits " Cool Cat" is another...hope you give them a shot 👍
and My Fairy King, Great King Rat, Seven Seas of Rhye, Ride the wild wind, Princes of the universe, Innuendo..........so many great songs that most people not even heard about. Anyway, this summer I am going to Dalhalla to see the Swedish version of We Will Rock You musical. I saw the original version in London at the Dominion theatre about 11-12 years ago.
@@ThunderboltDragon Wonderful! I have the same feeling when somebody talking about versions to "Phantom Of The Opera" f.eks, most of people have never heard british first versions with Brightman and Crawford and some other tenors....everybody talking about ONLY Nightwish version! It`s so sad, people doesn`t interested in music, just listening what they see in about 5 millimeters around them.... P.S. I am talking about all this hundreds of comments on videos both on youtube and Instagram!
Coming to terms with his life and the past truthful and so honest and sad too You should give Brian May doing this song live at Wembley at Freddie's Memorial concert
ABBAMAN... How brave a man Freddie was to cover a song written by Brian (not sure if Brian wrote this song about Freddie)about his disease and eventual reason why and facing his departure from this life. As a songwriter myself inspiration can come from anywhere whether it be good or bad he touched millions of lives worldwide and so many people will be able to relate to this song. This was one of his final compositions and only cemented his legendary status worldwide. Rip Freddie😢
Brian wrote this in 87 His wife was pregnant with their third child when he started an affair She found out and thry seperated then divorced Brian co wrote it with two other people It was recorded in 88 but not put on the album
This is Brian's song to sing. His pain. Him being torn between his past and his beckoning future and all the lives that would change if he followed his heart. ❤️🩹
Would love to have you do more Queen reactions. Or, did you know Freddy Mercury did a solo album with an opera singer, called Barcelona, that is amazing.
I’m not sure if you’ve heard this song, but the official video for the Queen song Let Me In Your Heart Again is amazing! It’s Freddie’s vocals at their finest. The song and video were released I believe in 2014. It was a song that had never been completely finished or released until that time. Let Me In Your Heart Again, in my defense by Freddie Mercury, and Freddie‘s version of Too Much Love Will Kill You are probably my favorites. Too Much Love Will Kill You was written by Brian May, you should watch his video as well. It’s very touching.
Mylord It is a beautiful song...but so much pain, so much regret and yet I cannot stop listen to it. Obviously you feel it too. I glad you are listening to this before Tommy's rendition. And I can promise you. Tommy does not disapoint ❤
Sounds like you had Greatest hits II, i had it too and also listened a lot on it. It is on greatest hits III and made in heaven witch came out after Freddies death. First on Bryan Mays album Back to the light and it is about his divorce and the feelings being torn by two women he loves
You should react to the Brain May version as it is his song about his life & his struggles not a Queen song x Brian played it to Freddie & he loved it so Queen did a version too x
Queen are my second favourite group after abba, and this is one of my favourites thanks david, brilliant reaction as always, try rest up, your a busy man x
Beautiful song. You're absolutely right - legends never die. They are always with us. And Tommy did a great cover, he treated the original very carefully. Thanks for the review and have a great weekend.
As others have said, this is Brian's song. It's about the pain of the breakup of his first marriage, while in love with another woman. There are two versions of this song....this one with Freddie on lead. The original with Brian on lead vocals. Both beautiful. Butt, I think, you should hear Brian sing this song. 🙂
Hey GT!! Welcome back! Don't beat yourself up for not recognizing this Queen song since it was NOT a real Queen song per se... Sir Brian May wrote this song about the anguish of his inevitable upcoming divorce... his guitar says it all... This song never publicly aired until the tribute concert to Freddie in 1992 when Brian sang it live at the concert (and very moving)... of course, when they released Freddie's version, it took on a whole new meaning with Freddie singing it... like others who commented here, I also prefer Brian's version of the song, although Freddie captured the concept of the song literally... dying for his lover... TYVM for all you do for us... blessings. P.S. Now you can see why I call Queen the "Master Manipulators of Emotion"... it seems they are the only band I know that can get you to cry and laugh in the same song... can't help but love that... Namaste.
If you want the original it was Brian's single. Freddie sang it but they never thought they would use it ,so I think it was kept, Brian wrote it about his marriage break up and sang it at Freddie's tribute concert (worth a watch) the band added a few things to Freddie's version and put it on the album after Freddie died Made in heaven. This was an album using all the things Freddie sang in the last months of his life. He asked for lyric and sang each 3 times and told them to finish them as he knew he would be gone by that time. On the album is the last song Freddie wrote whilst in Montrose the based around what he could see from his bedroom window. Also there is Mother love the last one he sang,he had to go and rest after the first two verses sadly he died, Brian out of respect and love finished it, make sure you have tissues when you listen to these xcc
Written by Brian about the conflict he felt over the breakup of his first Marriage & the guilt he felt over falling in love with the woman he would eventually marry! His pain is only too obvious!
I love this song written by Brian May but if you really want to understand the song, you have to understand what Brian was going through at this point in his life and you need to watch the Brian May video of this song, it is my favorite of all and I even listened to Tommy's version. This is a great song, I can truly understand why someone would cover it. When Freddie sings it one get a feeling that it is about his life and fate but in fact it was about Brian who had found so much fame and fortune with Queen but whose life was crumbling around him. Thank you for your reaction.
I like Brian's ( guitarist ) version of the song better. In this instance. It was a song he wrote for his album. But. Fred liked it. So. He allowed Fred to sing a version ( he arranged ) that was more rock heavy / in line with the Queen sound. Since it was a song expressing his personal pain over the breakup of his marriage .Brian's version is, at once a beautiful, yet visceral expression of that pain. There is no substitute for that. Even with a voice like Fred's.
This was written by Brian about the break up of his marriage, involving his new relationship with Anita Dobson. Do yourself, and us all, a favour by reacting to Brian's own version. It is heartbreaking 😥
This is actually originally a Brian May solo song (and not a Queen song) from his Back to the light album. Some really good songs on that album, I can really recommend it. This is likely why you haven't heard it before since it's only on Queen Greatest Hits III and not on any of their studio albums. I actually prefer Brian's version of the Queen version.
There is a version where Brian May sings it ( he wrote it during his divorce). It's definitely worth a listen, it has a different feel than this one, but of course they are both awesome!
This was never on a Queen album during Freddie's lifetime. It was written by Brian & 2 others & Freddie didn't want to share royalties with others outside the band. The remaining members did include it on albums released after Freddie died. While Freddie sings the bajeebus out of this song, I actually prefer Brian's version. Brian wrote this at a very low point in his life & the emotions he brings feel very personal.
No I simply watched it when it came out. It was the new song that got released called "Face it alone". It has to do with the record company that owns the rights to it. I had to edit the video several times in order to not get it blocked.
Sir Dr Brian May's version is the first version of the track. The contrast of the two tracks is in the context. BM's version is equated with the dichotomy of getting divorced. FM's version is about the results of promiscuous behavior. Neither is better than the other. They are both great. LONG LIVE QUEEN!!
MORE QUEEN! 👑☺️
Try 'You Take My Breath Away' 😊🔥
"My Melancholy Blues". "Millionaire Waltz", "Man on the Prowl", "Jealousy", Dreamer's Ball", "Seaside Rendezvous", "Just Keep Passing the Open Windows" and on and on......
So many hidden gems. Thanks.
Yes! All of these!
Man on the prowl! Yes Sir! 😎🤟
Freddie was a talented legend, never will we see the likes of him again. Loved your reaction to it.
You need to listen to Freddie’s collaboration with Montserrat Caballe (if you haven’t already), particularly Barcelona, How Can I Go On, Guide Me Home and Golden Boy. They did an entire album together.
This version is the best

Thank you 🙏🏻
THIS IS THE BEST VERSION!!!!
I think Brian's solo version is better, but this version is also very good.
Written by Brian originally for a solo album, Brian's version is also epic. Freddie's voice is different class of course
There are so many people reacting to Queen's songs with no problems at all. What a legend you just cannot get enough of his voice. X
Freddie… phenomenal ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

He's gone from this earth but his spirit lives on, he's literally my angel, saved my life.
Miss Freddy's voice, he was a legend. Queen songs are fantastic. Xx
Yeah, a great great song!!!!!!
Coming to terms with his life and the past truthful and so honest and sad too You should give Brian May doing this song live at Wembley at Freddie's Memorial concert
Poetic lyrics and soooo true

You have also listen to the song when Brian May sings it.❤
I join! David, you should definitely listen to this song performed by Brian May.
Would love to have you do more Queen reactions. Or, did you know Freddy Mercury did a solo album with an opera singer, called Barcelona, that is amazing.
I'm not crying, you are 😭😭😭
When you do Queen , you need to do them live , or your missing out and so are your listeners 💕 I loved your reaction to Freddie . Thank you so much.
🙏🏻
WOW! Some strong lyrics in this one! Thank you!
This song is so beautifully written its one of my favourites
I love this song.
It is for the last album
It is to hear with the stereo at top
it is the song i more like
1991 i think
was edit after Freedy die
In my defence is another special Freddy Mercury song

My heart breaks every time for what Brian what he was going through at that time
I always get emoshe when i listen to.this.
So sad, Freddie could've delivered so many more classics for us to enjoy if not for his too early departure. RIP Freddie
❤❤❤❤❤❤🇦🇷

Freddie and George Michael…such a loss ❤❤😢

I know most of Queen songs quite well, but do not recall hearing this one. It is a nice song, so it is strange that I do not remember it.

Beautiful song. You're absolutely right - legends never die. They are always with us. And Tommy did a great cover, he treated the original very carefully. Thanks for the review and have a great weekend.
Who is legends for you? Just some names.
What do you mean Katarina? =) To me, Freddie Mercury is truly a legend. And he lives on in my heart.
@@GivenToe No, I asked Elena, and just want to undersand the area in music what SHE loves. Freddie - and who else?
@@GivenToe who besides Freddie?
@@katarinastene9069 Freddie Mercury is recognized as a legend throughout the world. His contribution to culture is enormous.
Just realised I didn't give the name of Freddie's last song he wrote. A winters tail,I written bits are Freddie's original notes x
This version features on Queen 'Made in Heaven' if your interested,,,,

Har inte heller hört denna innan din reaktionsvideo den var så bra och tog verkligen tag i mej ❤️

Queen doesn't normally block their music. Was the Queen video you had problems with downloaded from the official Queen youtube channel?
No I simply watched it when it came out. It was the new song that got released called "Face it alone". It has to do with the record company that owns the rights to it. I had to edit the video several times in order to not get it blocked.
freddie is a real icon the version from queen is so much better than the version from brian the voice from freddie is so unique miss you freddie
Check out In my defence it’s amazing thanks 🙏
Does ”Getå” mean anything to you?
please please react to brians version aswell imo brian is even better then freddie on this song it will blow u away
Too much pausing will kill me … every time. 😓
Well it is what it is, Queen songs have a tendency to get blocked for some reason, that's why I am a bit careful on the copyright =)
