No auto tune. Freddie was PURE TALENT! The WORLD cried when we lost him.
Over 30 years ago and my mom and aunts still cry. They made a crier out of me too 😭😭💔💔
Yess,a real lost his vocals are insane even vocal training that make reaction don't understand how freddie made the high notes just pure talent
This song always makes my heart hurt. The one and only time I saw Queen in concert was Montreal, Nov 24, 1981, for my 24th B-day. Sadly, Freddie passed on the same date, ten years later. Nov 24, 1991. Ever since then I light a candle for him on my birthday, say a little prayer, and play this song. Wasn't he wonderful? I warms my heart to see so many younger people discovering Queen. They were definitely a one of kind band, all so talented, and then to have Freddie as the front man. Not many can compare, can they?
Your a beautiful human being ty on behalf of a Queen fan ❤
My son told me he was having twins so I jokingly said you have to call them Roger and Freddie. My daughter in law said she loved the idea of calling one Freddie.
She got to 34weeks pregnant and the boys decided it was time to be born. They were 6 weeks early and born on November 24th on the 21st anniversary of Freddie's death. The just knew it had to be that day.
@@hellsbells8689 Haha! I have a barn cat named Mercury!
Why are people upset about this song?...it’s not about Freddie...it’s music that they wrote for the film Highlander...please do your homework about Queen🤩
@@josephinemonahan915 You seems to be a little confused. You're talking to life long fans of Queen. Neither of us said we cry because this song is ABOUT Freddie. We know it was for the movie where the hero outlives everyone he loves.
The song is beautiful. The pain we still feel at the loss of Freddie is still real too but this song is not the one and only reason one can cry or hurt when thinking of Freddie's death.
No "homework" needed.
Brian May is the big hair guy who started out on the keys in this performance, usually on lead guitar and moves to lead guitar in this performance after the keys ar no longer needed. He wrote this song for the Queen soundtrack for the movie Highlander. I love this beautiful song, thank you for your reaction. Wrist band is for sweat but more for keeping it off his hand so he can hold the mic when he is sweating. Freddie usually uses a towel when he wipes his face because he sweats far more than a wrist band is going to handle. All members of Queen are multi instrumentalists.
Aw yes, the wonderfully talented astrophysics Brian May, thy cup runneth over.
0:56 got me dead 😆💀
Once again, I prefer the live performance to studio, Freddie gave ALL when they are on stage.
I,m a 61 year old Lady and I grew up with queen .If you want to hear a whole different Freddy Do cool cat.
Oh hell yes! Absolutely fantastic song and another hidden gem!
I'm in the same bracket plus and COOL CAT is a definite must for sheer FUN. Only Freddie and John (Brian & Roger were not into funk) but once you hear that bass line and those vocals, you will be taken for A RIDE. Just remember to crank up the volume! Drive, dance or lay back and close your eyes. You are going places.
Great song
Yes !!! I agree
Ob my God, Cool Cat is such an underrated song. It’s absolute heaven and so few know about it.
The Lead Singer is Freddie Mercury, the Lead Guitarist with the long curly hair is Brian May, the Bass Guitarist is John Deacon and the Drunner is Roger Taylor, the four Legends that make up Queen
They were all incredibly talented musicians. I think its great that younger people are getting in to the classics. There are gems in every generation and good music should be passed on.
@@lightatthecape2009 I agree
Please please learn their names, only four guys. You are a joy to watch keep it up.
Exactly, very few people realize that all 4 members worked together to create this incredible music. Together they created music that is greater than each of them could have made on their own or with other artists. Freddie is epic and legendary, and so are the rest of the band. Rest in power Freddie 💕
This was near the end of touring for Queen, I think they did one or two more after this.. but Freddie was beginning to feel the drain of his illness and knew he couldn’t do justice for fans as they had always been able to do. They continued to record music up until Freddie’s death in 1991, but touring became too much. There are really great videos of early Queen (in the 70s), and even more of them into the mid-80s. Their live performances were perfection, and almost always better than the studio version. And, as others have mentioned.. that was Brian on keys at the beginning, he was holding his guitar on his lap so he could quickly move to his solo from the keys. All 4 band members were multi-instrumentalists; all 4 wrote #1 hits (all are in the songwriters hall of fame), and they are the only rock band to do so. Thanks for your reaction to this beauty by Freddie!!
Brian May, his guitar is like another vocalist. Amazing.
You should check out their performance at the 1985 Live Aid concert at Wembley stadium. The audience control of about 80,000 people is mesmerizing.
A great song. I first heard it in the Movie "Highlander", which had the entire soundtrack done by Queen.
I was at Wembley that night, the best gig I ever went to. Choose any song from that performance, you won't be disappointed. Freddie is the best frontman of any band ever.
The greatest vocalist to ever walk this earth, never again will there be anyone with such a magnificent voice as Freddie.
Sir Brian May is such a talented man,apart from being Dr in Astrophysics PHD also helps with NASA & is an environmentalist. Also made some of his guitars. Mega talented
Lady Bird, Lady Bird, fly away
Brian May is cool I love the way he plays the piano with his guitar on his lap while Freddie is singing the song Save Me at Montreal. Brian wrote Who Wants to Live Forever for the film Highlander. Brian actually sings some of this song in the studio version you should check it out it is a classic. X keep it going
This song took on a whole new meaning after we realized Freddie was sick..One of Queens most beautiful songs.
Thanks. Check out Queen playing White Queen at Hammersmith Odeon in 1975 and Freddie hypnotize a concert at Hyde Park 1976 singing Every Breath You Take. Also Spread Your Wings, One Year of Love, Stone Cold Crazy, Killer Queen, Another One Bites The Dust, Save Me, Play The Game. All four members were talented songwriters and professional musicians. Remember this was before auto tune and computer tricks. ❤RIP Freddie.
Don't forget "White Queen " they did this fantastic song and killed it! 🫶👑
This one makes me at least tear up every time ❤
Freddie’s voice is unmatched, it is full of emotion, love and he can make you feel a song. Freddie and the whole band are just gifted beyond their years. Please take a listen to You Take My Breath Away Freddie layered his own vocals the official video. Also White Queen live at Hammersmith the instrumental in that song will take you to whole other world. Which is what Queen does, they take you on a journey. They are thee best band ever!’ 😁
Love the live version of YOU TAKE MY BREATH AWAY at Hyde Park (before it was even recorded) but can still rejoice with the perfection of the studio sound.
Thank you so very much for this reacting to Queen. Great reaction, Sir.
Freddie was one of the best, and with always be up there with other superb artists who have sadly passed away. True legend.
I couldn't agree more with you!👑🫶
@@deborahallen3318 Thank you 🙂
That was from the Movie: The Highlander 1986 (Music by Queen).
Welcome to the QUEEN family dear! I love your Queen reactions, your genuine surprise with the incredible talent of Queen and magnificent Freddie! You must, really must" to react another version of Somebody to love in Milton Keynes 81 at the Bowl is outstanding!
I believe is important too you travel for the QUEEN experience the earliest days reacting Keep yourself alive, Liar, In the laps of the gods (revisited)...just for start...😊. Once again, thanks for your reaction, as a huge Queen fan I am, it makes me so happy. Big hug to you from this Argentine sick Queen fan who lives in Rio 👑❤️
Brian May, guitar, Roger Taylor drums, John Deacon bass guitar, Freddie Mercury, lead man vocalist, piano etc. The face on the drums is of the drummer, Roger Taylor. Brain May is an astrophysicist. All of them have written #1 hits, they all sing. They were one of the greatest of the great rock bands. We will miss Freddie forever.
Freddie Forever Loved XX
Oh, and for more of Freddie’s power notes, “A Kind of Magic”, “One Vision”, “Love of My Life”, “Under Pressure”, all live at Wembley 1986. But imo, Freddie’s most powerful vocals are on “In My Defence”. Its one of his solo songs but bone chillingly powerful. Tysm for checking out these legends and our man Freddie. He was truly The GOAT.
Pure unobliterated talent .Freddie always had the crowd in the palm of his hand.Brian May never used a guitar pick he used a sixpence something like a dime . Luv the reaction.
If you watch the official version of this song you'll get to hear Brian May sing the first verse and Freddie the second. Fun fact: most performers will wear when performing in a large stadium, especially at night. It makes it easier for the audience at the rear of the venue to locate them on stage.
Pure perfection. Out of this planet. One in a million. Freddie the Great. This is very sad song for Queen fans. Behind this words lays Freddies illness.
Brian is THAT guy 😂 LOL, you’ll learn soon 🤗
Freddie took boxing in school, so you’ll often see him using his fist like a boxer.
Yep that is Brian May, he plays many instruments and is also Dr.Brian May PhD Astrophysicist, oh and he sings great too!
Whoopie!
Dis guy is live an dis is wat u call amazing an someone who can sing live .WOW
Brian May is the guitar player you see him now with long hair..Rodger Taylor drums..John Deacon Bass..Freddie Mercury..
When you have seen them live you are blown away!
legendary song...🎹🎸🥁💪
I can’t 1986 queen wow
I am 71 and this is the best
Queen gained a new fan! ❤️
Brian is that guy!😂
Sir Brian May, PhD. He's not only a phenomenal guitarist, but also an astrophysicist and was recently knighted by King Charles.
😂😂
Queens performances are LIVE!!!
This is from the soundtrack for the movie "Highlander". There are also several other songs they did for the movie such as "A kind of Magic" and a few others. Watch the movie sometime. It was a huge hit back in the day, with Sean Connery in one of the major roles.
LEGENDARII❤❤❤❤
BTW re Freddie's wristbands (SORRY so many comments!) ...That was just the style back then, but I've also wondered if they had a practical purpose when Freddie was performing. He used to sweat SO MUCH, there are some close-up videos of him playing the piano where you can see sweat literally running/dripping off his elbows and wrists and chin!
I just watched the whole Queen concert from Wembley. 1986. On UA-cam. The whole concert was epic! And there’s a fun part where they sing a medley of oldies that were their favs growing up. ❤❤
If you want to hear another side of Freddie, please listen to excesises in free love.
Subscribing, Stef. You had me the moment I saw that Grateful Dead poster!
Right? ✌🏼🙌🏼🎯
Thanks Katie! 😁
Well - it IS Brian May - and he wrote the song. All 4 members of Queen are multi instrumentalists - and songwritersThis is one of Freddies last 3 concerts - after this they only made albums. - and videos -. This song was written for the movie Highlander - Queen made the soundtrack.Queen had an extra member in the shadows - spike Edney - the "5'th member of Queen" - who took over the keyboards to make it possible for Freddie to perform in front of the stage and interact with the crowd. Their clothing are designed - it is costumes -.His voice is not on its high - - he took the lower notes and Roger - the drummer - sang the high notes - as always - but he covered when Freddie had a bad day.These days you can still go to a Queen concert - Roger and Brian went on - with new frontmen - the last 12 years with Adam Lambert. They tour North America this fall - and still totally sold out venues. You should listen to this song - the version from 2016 - on Isle of Wight - the day after a mass shooting in a gay-club. I've never heard it sung like that - said Roger - and Brian made comments about standing next to Adam while he went away up into the stratosphere - musically. Go on reacting to Queen - and the subscribers will blow your mind.
I have lovedQueen since I was 14, 1975! Try their Don’t Stop Now, Stone Cold Crazy, and It’s Late. You will love them all! Thanks!
You're right....that's Brian on the guitar, but that's also Brian on the keys in the beginning!
Legend has it that the wristband was blessed by a 130 year old Shaman and imbued with raw talent and flawless belts. I possibly just made that up though.
😂
He IS that Guy -- 100%
OMG, how did I get so LUCKY!?!?!? This is my FAVORITE performance of this song... THANK YOU, SOOOO MUCH. There are three live performances of this song available on video... this rendition often "flies under the radar", but it's sooo... PASSIONATE.
Just an FYI... There are actually TWO 1986 Wembley concerts: Friday, July 11 & Saturday, July 12. Generally speaking, the most-viewed Wembley performances are from the Saturday show (I think mainly because - back when a live-in-concert Wembley video was originally produced for resale - it was the Saturday concert used for the video. Since then, I think they've added the Friday concert to the DVD as well.) But, there are folks (like myself) who prefer the lesser-known Friday concert, because Freddie was "fresher". (He was actually coming down with a cold on the second night.) So for instance, this song you just reacted to was from the Friday, July 11 show... that's why I was SO excited!
Love love loving your reactions. I have been a Queen fan for over 35 years after first hearing them live at Live Aid in 1985 when I was 16 years old., I am now 54 years old!!! I was at this concert (Saturday night one) and when they did this song you could hear a pin drop amongst the 72,000 of us. I saw them again at Knebworth in August 1986 when there were 150,000 of us and Queen flew in by Helicopters above us. Here are some other ones that you MUST do :-
Dragon Attack/Now I'm Here Reprisal [this is the best one ... not just the Dragon Attack one] - Live Montreal 1981
Bohemian Rhapsody - Live Montreal 1981
Save Me - Live Montreal 1981
Love of My Life - Live Montreal 1981
Killer Queen - Live at Montreal 1981
Live Aid 1985 [full 20 minute set - please choose right one as the one that seems to be going around has the ending cut off from it best to choose the one with the two Policemen at the start]
One Vision - Live Wembley 1986
Tie Your Mother Down/In the Lap of the Gods/Tear It Up medley - Live at Wembley 1986
Another One Bites the Dust - Live Wembley 1986
Under Pressure - Live Wembley 1986 [Freddie's call and response is phenomenal]
We are the Champions - Live at Wembley 1986 [and the ending of the concert]
One Vision Documentary [the 20 minute one as there is a shorter version on the Net but it is nowhere near as good as the longer one] - it shows the band creating the song One Vision
Please please please do some of the above, you will be absolutely BLOWN away by all of the band's talents.
BTW Brian is the one you said it wasn't in this reaction, he is the one with all the glorious curly hair, which he still has to this day but obviously it's now grey as he is now over 70 years of age, although still performing with the drummer Roger Taylor and they have their singer, Adam Lambert. Sadly, John Deacon the bassist couldn't carry on as he was emotionally devastated when Freddie died and called it a day. He did however perform a few times after Freddie's death, especially at the tribute concert in 1992.
Stay safe from Manchester UK
Queen were the Kings of live performances back in the day.
Sorry, but Brian is indeed “that guy? Sir Brian May, Ph.D., playing the keyboard and guitar. Roger Taylor is the drummer, and John Deacon the bass player.
So with this song, there’s this very talented singer name floored Jensen from the band Nightwish and she recorded herself as a duet with Freddie Mercury on this song it’s pretty good. You should check that one out because obviously they didn’t do it do it because he’s been dead for years, but the way she recorded it with her self and him it’s pretty bad ass.
Anything Queen is great ❤️❤️❤️❤️
All the lives are much better than a studio version. IMHO
This song is absolutely breathtaking! Love the Budapest version, I think he delivered with more power in his voice. You really need to react to some early Queen. To get the whole picture of them. Keep Yourself Alive and Liar at the Rainbow are great.
You need to see them live at Wembly
We will love him forever ❤
I can't listen to this song or "Streets of Phillidelphia" without crying, so I gave it a like because I know you're going to feel it. I thought you should know that Freddie was nearing the end of his battle with HIV - leading to A.I.D.S. - when he wrote this beautiful ballad.
Fact: Aquired ImmunoDificiency Syndrome was first discovered in the mid 1880s.
I'm 63, I contracted HIV when I was 25 and, "my clothes don't fit me anymore...".
Love who you want, it's none of my business, until you make it mine. Stop it!
This was on the movie Highlander Queen did the music🎼❤️🎼❤️🎼🇬🇧🇬🇧
That's ok:) great reaction. Like to see Made in Heaven Queen Real Freddie!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤😮
Don’t Stop Me Now is so fun. Do that one.
New sub because of this reaction. Thank you so much. I love this though it makes me cry. As my mom says "dear Freddie and the boys" were the best. My mom, aunt and cousins use to write letters to Queen's fan club and get letters back. My aunt was 15 when she went to see Queen and she came home a day later lol. She said that was the best trouble she got into. Please react to Spread your Wings official video and Dragon Attack Milton Keynes. Thank you.
Thank you for doing this one.❤
Those " random notes" are a technique called skat, famously used by Ella Fitzgerald among others. Freddie also uses a vocal warmup exercise in concerts which is amazing.
Brian May was playing the keybords at the beginning of the song and then on to the guitar
It's Sir Brian May now. Marc Martel sings this as well. You NEED to check him out. He performs Concerts singing Freddie Mercury:
Roger has a solo. I love my car. He also, Say it’s not so , or say it’s not true. After Freddie passed. Look at Rogers solos. I believe it was a tribute to Freddie. Another tribute is. No one but you, only the good die young.
Brian played both organ and guitar in this song
SUPER REACȚIE 👌👌👌
At the start Brian May keys and then lead guitar.
John Deacon bass guitar,
Roger Taylor drums.
Those wrist bands just sold for over $1.5 million
64 HERE AN THEY ARE BAD ASS IN CONCERT WELCOME TO THE QUEEN 👑 ARMY AN MY SUBSCRIPTION ❤
Thanks for coming aboard! Welcome Mrs. Ellen! 😁🖤
Goodnight my Bonnie Heather 💋
This was a song from the film Highlander one of a few films for which Queen did the soundtrack and my favourite! They also did the soundtrack for Flash Gordon. The music is still amazing, but sadly the film hasn’t really withstood the test of time!
Brian's still got the same haistyle, but it's silver grey now. Pls, jump back in time and check out the White Queen at Hammersmith 75.
They guy at the keyboard is the same guy playing guitar. Sir Dr Brian May.
Brian May was playing the keyboard!
Ha, Freddie goes up on his toes to hit that note!
One of a handful of songs for the 1986 Highlander movie soundtrack!! The studio version is stunning! Other songs from the soundtrack- PRINCES OF THE UNIVERSE (Freddie) A KIND OF MAGIC & DON’T LOSE YOUR HEAD (Roger) ONE YEAR OF LOVE (John).
Yes that is Brian May .He could play more than one instrument.
Loving the reactions!!! Please PLEASE check out the performance of “Under Pressure” live at Wembley 1986 and “Another One Bites the Dust” live in Montreal (thesame concert youve been watching). Tbh, ANY of the live performances are mind blowing, but the entire concerts from Montreal 1981 and Wembley 1986 are absolutely brilliant!!)
This is a song that you don't smile for. Just say'n ❤
Brian May is the playing the key board, thus is from the film Highlander.
I don't know if the host knows it but this is a n important song in Highlander, the movie with chris lambert and Sean Connery.
Yes, Brian is that guy at the beginning. He usually plays guitar of course, but he's on keys for the first part. He's an amazing songwriter, too, obviously. This MIGHT be my favorite Queen song of all, but tomorrow I might tell you something different. Haha This was written for the movie "Highlander." It's probably time for you to react to the Live Aid set. Get a version that is more than 23 mins long because the shorter ones have a huge cut off at the end and you miss the finale!
Also, this song resume this old movie called the Highlander where these guys fault and they cut the other ones head off and they gain their power to interesting movie wasn’t a huge hit, but it was a cult classic for many.
Cult classic for me! Still watch it every now and then and takes me straight back to childhood.
Have you seen the official video of this song? If not, you have to check it out.
No, I haven't! Looks like I may have to do a second reaction with the video!
If you want a different kind of Queen song, check out the 1975 performance of "White Queen" at the Hammersmith Odeon. It will break your brain.
And it was also Brian May on the organ, switching to his red special.
There can be only one 😊
I am Connor MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod and I am immortal.
Have a watch of the movie Highlander. Queen did the soundtrack. This song is from that movie.
Check out Marc Martel's version of this song if only for yourself. Not that anyone could ever replace Freddie Mercury at all but still take a listen I think you'll dig it my friend. "Long Live Rock n' Roll"
I know that is from the film highlander from the central characters wife s death scene its a must see bit
Thanks, Stef - you were exactly wrong about Brian, though - he did START on the keys before switching to his always amazing guitar.... Sir Doctor Brian May was and still is awesome... appreciate your reactions...
Haha thanks for going easy on me! I’ll learn em! 😂🖤
Yes it’s Brian.
Brian May is the guitarist you love
1:02 'that's not Brian'
4:20 "now that is Brian May"
- yeah, you have learning to do; so was 1:02!
Need to do a reaction to Mona Lisa by lil wayne that shit is fire with a good story
The wrist bands are for sweat not necessarily for fashion
