    In my mind, as a 25-year-old, Freddie is the greatest singer that's ever lived. I'll hold that opinion until the day I'm proven wrong. His voice is majestic, and this song is proof of that.

      The only one I can think of who is close is Brad Delp from Boston. Just listen to him climb the octave ladder on More than a feeling, as he's holding that high note on "away". He goes high, and just when you think he's running out of range, he hits another gear and goes even higher!

    No one can replace Freddy. I’ve seen Adam Lambert with Queen. He’s so great. He doesn’t try to replace FM, but pays homage, while singing in his own flair. There is a singer that was given the green light by Queen to be a tribute singer. His name is Marc Martel. He is fantastic. He’s the closest sound to FM. I’ve seen him live and it was phenomenal. Worth a listen. 🌸🌸💕

The most incredible part is they made that song without a ton of the equipment voice stuff today. They recorded over n over again their own music to get the musical affects. They were ahead of their time in music. ❤

    Freddie's WORST performance is still better than 99% of everyone else's BEST performance. Can you imagine how many more Bohemian Rhapsodies, Innuendos, We Will Rock Yous, We Are the Champions, White Queens, Under Pressures we missed out on because AIDS killed Freddie at 45 years old? How many more masterpieces Queen and Freddie could have gifted this world with? However, I think if that were the case, I don't think we'd have gotten The Show Must Go On or even Innuendo. There are even some songs Freddie sang and never got to hear finished. MOTHERLOVE for example.. chilling and absolutely devastating to listen to. The second verse, he hits a note that chills me to the core and it was the last moment he ever recorded before he died. Brian May had to sing the final verse and I think when you know that, it's even more chilling because we're listening to the last recorded moments of an artist's portfolio and of his life. When I hear it, I can't help it I just immediately start to cry.

    The William Shatner cover is very entertaining.

    No one could possibly top the original. ❤
    My 2nd mom introduced me to Queen when I was young and they became a big part of the soundtrack of my youth. My fave song as an adult is Fat Bottomed Girls. 😂 But they are all fantastic.

    To me, Freddie is on the Mt. Rushmore of vocalists, the very frist head on there is his. The other 3 can be left to others interpretation, for me the other 3 would be Ronnie James Dio, Glenn Frey, and Paul McCartney, but those are interchangeable, Freddie's will never be changed.

    Freddie apparently joined together 5 unfinished songs to create the rhapsody.

    I love this video, no live performance that they even did could really compare, though Freddie did great on the ones I could see here on UA-cam here, they all did, just Freddie’s voice got rougher and deeper in live performances. He LIVED to perform, and it shows. He loved the fans, and it shows. He’s most comfortable onstage, and it shows. Music lived in his blood, in their blood, they really are great live, everyone recommends Live Aid in 1985, the whole 20 minute set all at once. There’s a flow, a sight to see for yourself, just something very special to behold. Anything from Montreal in 1981 is absolutely magnificent, and anything at Wembky, ever, especially in 1986. Rio was a huge crowd, something like 150,000 both nights, and Live Aid was 72,000. Sigh…ai can never get enough, and I love these reactions, reliving that feeling b eyeing others enjoying, sometimes for the first time--omg, no one can believe these guys are real. TY,

    I’m usually here for your Em commentary, but Queen is my favorite band! The crossover I didn’t know I needed 🖤✨

    Recorded on a 25 track tape the whole of the first part was all just Freddie harmonizing.

    It took Queen a lot of effort to create and record that song. I was 8 when it was a hit, lol.

    The harmonies at the start of the song were all done by Freddie.

    I really appreciate that you said you already knew the song but were giving an honest reaction to it. So many reaction videos have people who pretend it is their first time watching or listening to then it becomes obvious that they are lying. Cheers!

    Thanks for doing this Cliff, i found you because of your Ren reactions but before Ren became a part of my life it was Queen, ive been listening to them since 1974 (yes im old) and i remember when this song came on the radio, id never heard anything like it, i remember a group of us crowding round the tv to watch this video, it was a massive thing in 1975 and it paved the way for MTV, I still love it to this day and yes you are right no one can do it better than Queen, no digital downloads in them days it was all done on tape, they were ahead of their time thats for sure. I hope you do more Queen especially live they were the best
