    Hey everyone, Queen has by far become my favorite band ever and it would be my dream to see them live while it’s still possible. Unfortunately i don’t have the money to be able to do it. If any of you could help me that would mean the world to me, even just $1 could make the difference between me being able to go or not. If you want to help you can donate through my paypal link in the description or with the “Thanks” button to the right of the Like button. Of course if you can’t that’s totally okay, and i completely understand :)

    To hear Brian. Do album versions of 39, Good Company, Someday One Day, Sleeping on the Sidewalk, All Dead All Dead, & Too Much Love Will Kill You. As time went on Brian in particular. Decided they would rather hear Fred. So. He let him sing everything live. ( Untrue for me BTW ) I wish Brian would have had more confidence in his vocals. Certain songs just fit him better. While he doesn't have the vocal range of Fred & Roger. In terms of Queen songs. He has a warm soft sweet tone. One that can be emotive, & melancholy at times. It also made listening to the albums fun. You got to hear them separately, & together. Got to be surprised. As their vocals are constantly interchanging within the songs themselves. That plus the studio innovations they were pioneering. Make their 70s studio albums in particular a must listen.

    This song is one of Brian's finest works. This band was not familiar with the word "impossible", they had great ideas and they exactly knew how to achieve the perfect sound, the perfect live versions, btw. both Freddie and Brian were perfectionists. Pls, check out another genre the vaudeville, the song called Seaside Rendezvous, it's cute and funny.

    Brian wrote this in about 10 minutes sitting in the back of a taxi after they viewed the promotional video for Highlander. All 4 of them wrote songs for the movie. So much talent notice John on the upright bass. Along with a very hungover Roger Taylor lol

    • @TrevorReaction
      @TrevorReaction  Рік тому +1

    This song was written by Brian May for the Queen Soundtrack for the movie Highlander. I really love this song and the cutest version of it is of Brian's little girl, Louisa singing it she looks about 4 or 5. I have seen it on UA-cam but haven't gone back to it for a while, maybe after watching this video. Thank you for your reaction.

    I love the Wembley 86 live version of this song it was written by Brian May for the soundtrack for the film Highlander. Brian wrote this song in the backseat of his car after seeing a 20-minute cut of this film. Beautiful song you seemed a bit lost for words on this one. But that is when you know a song is special. X

    Innuendo album is a great collection of music, and, the videos are excellent. None of these songs were performed live, so the album is often overlooked. The title song: Innuendo, is a complex work of art and on a par with Bo Rhap, and Breakthru is excellent both musically and visually, Bijou features Brian's guitar brilliance, and just a few poignant lines from Freddie. When you are ready to listen to Freddie's work without Queen, but with the lovely soprano voice of Spanish diva Montserrat Caballe, there is the entire Barcelona album awaiting. One of my favorites is The Golden Boy. I am truly enjoying your reviews, well done Trevor
    An excellent hour long documentary by people who actually worked with and knows the band members is "Becoming Queen". It is done with insight, dignity and respect.

    This is a masterpiece by Brian May...and your reaction was GREAT!I The word you used - "poignant" - is absolutely correct. If you have the chance, you can see how Queen adapted this to a LIVE performance at the Budapest, 1986 concert...it's spine tingling and worth your time. In my opinion, Budapest is the best LIVE version. Thanks for doing this one, Trevor...it's one of my favorite songs by Queen or anyone else!

    They "DEFINITELY DON'T " make music like this no more...unless of course you prefer that depressing accoustic style of whaling we get over here in the UK, each song and singer sound the same as the last, that annoyingly dreary noise like somebody straining themselves on the toilet, so bland & so boring!! Lots of respect to you buddy, I'm so glad the younger generations are discovering these great artists & bands and boy you're definitely gonna be surprised the more you delve into the fantastic music of the past decades, the singers & personalities the likes of which we'll probably never see or hear again. So many of them sadly are no longer with us but MY GOD what a treasure trove of great music they have left behind for us and future generations to enjoy. I'm new to your channel so I'm not sure if you've already have done reactions to the following acts but these are some of my favourites that you may wanna check out....ABBA, GEORGE MICHAEL ( A HUGE Fan of his ), THE BEE GEES, DUSTY SPRINGFIELD, TOM JONES, SIMPLY RED, PHIL COLLINS, PINK FLOYD, LED ZEPPELIN, DAVID BOWIE, THE BEATLES ( Of Course!!), PAUL MCCARTNEY......to name a few. Thankyou for doing a great react and I wish you great health and I hope your channel continues to grow, lots of best wishes from the UK, take care buddy!! 👍
