Brian May is SOOOOOO GOOD, vocally, musically, composition....I don't think his talent was as recognized at the forefront as it should have been from the Queen days. ALL the members were made big, heavy contributions....I'm realizing though w/out Brian May QUEEN would not have taken off like it did.
True, without Brian May's guitar Queen would've been a good band because of Freddie Mercury's voice but they would have lost the power Brian brought to the music.
I agree, Freddie was the voice of Queen and master at controlling the audience and probably didn't get enough credit for his piano, but Brian May's guitar was the sound of Queen! I think the time since Freddie passed has shown that both of them were necessary. Also, without Roger and Brian you would not have had the harmonies that Queen was known for.
Without Brian's sound , without Mercury voice and majestic piano skills , without the quiet John Deacon and brain to write massive hits and without Roger Taylor's unique drum sound and voice Queen can't be Queen ... the 4 of them made the magic happen and yes part of Queen sound is from brian may all of them are unique and can't be replaced thats why without freddie is Queen+ even without Brian it would be Queen+ because the 4 of them together are Queen .
Music is truly a gift from our creator...this song helped me through a very dark period of my life...thank you Brian for having the courage to follow your passion and lead an inspiring life through your music. I can honestly say I would not still be in this realm today, some 24 years later, if not for this song and your gift to us all. Theodyn.
Same goes for me! Thanks to Queen and Brian we still can enjoy music so much! Too bad i'm still on my way back to the light and it's beyond my reach every time...
You don't have to have a Doctorate Degree in Astrophysics to be one of the worlds premier guitarist but ,when you do your name is Dr.Brian May . Absolutely fantastic performance.
Featuring Cozy Powell from variant line-ups of The Jeff Beck Group, Whitesnake, and Black Sabbath! Plus Neil Murray from variant line-ups of Whitesnake and Black Sabbath! PLUS Spike Edney from The Cross and touring line-ups of QUEEN and Danny Meranda from a touring line-ups of QUEEN! This live live long play and its companion "music home video" are total classics from beginning to end!!!
In 1986 Freddie Mercury recorded song 'Creatures of the night' aka 'Music of the night' ( alternate song title ' Back to the night)'!!(during A kind of Magic recording session ) .The Darkness/ Dark ' intro track was recorded by Brian May in 1979 (during the Game recording session) .I heard that Freddie listended music background from song' Just one life' in recording studio ( 1989/90?) and he watched music notes on papier
genio sos parte de la banda q me acompañara toda mi vida y en el mas alla gracias x QUEEN AMO A QUEEN TU VOZ ES MARVILLOSA Y junto a MERCURY y TEYLOR SUS VOCES JUNTAS SON EXTRAORDINARIAS
I saw this tour at the Vic Theatre in Chicago. One of the loudest shows I had been to. Cozy Powell’s drums were so loud they hurt my ears. This song would’ve a great Queen song.
Oh... I so wish I could have been there! This just goes to show that Brians guitarr playing hugely contributed to the "Queen sound". I was at the Queen concert in Stockholm in the early and mid 80s. That was also magical!!!
@The Shields Biggest Fan QueenIsstadion in Stockholm was the first Queen concert I watched, and that was indoors. It was such a revelation to hear the songs from A night at the opera LP live! The second concert was at Rasunda in 1986(?) I think. Rain showers made the grass muddy and slippery, but the songs and the music... The stadion was packed, and all sang along! I got some great photos with my camera!
I bought it instantly when it came out and fell in love from the start. It was like witnessing him crawl out of the hole that he was in after Freddie died and then soaring up into the sky like a bird. Just a marvellous album.
"We'll be back to the light, cos there'll be no place to hide" damn, who wrote that, was down there. And came back. Late 80s, early 90s we lost a Queen member, but we got another one back.
The one that stands out may not be the truest talent in the band. Freddie had his moment at live aid and could never repeat that. A true showman who hit his peak at that time...
@@davefrance3721 bullshit. Only a year after Live Aid, Freddie stopped touring. Then this stop became permanent because of his illness. Brian May had 30 more years to keep "hitting peaks", whilst Freddie had none.
They are not a tribute act. That's very disrespectful. Brian and Roger are Queen and will always be Queen, a tribute Act doesn't have original members does it?
@@lorrainecimino8508 In my eyes Queen was Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Rodger Taylor and John Deacon. Sadly Freddie is no longer with us and John has retired. Two original members does not mean it’s still Queen. You wouldn’t call Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr with a bunch of hired guns backing them up The Beatles. In my opinion Queen are as important a band as The Beatles so I feel it’s the same situation with them. I love Brian May’s guitar playing (and Rodger Taylor’s drumming for that matter) but I feel he has denied the world lots of new material in favour of churning out second rate versions of Queen classics all these years. I’m sorry if you think I’m being disrespectful but that’s just my opinion. Adam Lambert is not Freddie Mercury and never will be.
@@sandykemp7562 I agree with you 100%! Brian should have continued make this kind of music instead, after Freddie past away. I understand that it was hard for him to continue after Cozy Powell sadly past away as well. But still... this was Brian as best!
Back to the light (Creatures of the night) by Queen and Mercury in 1985/86 and in 1988 Creatures of the night (early version) recorded during a kind of magic sesion and Back to the light recorded during the Miracle session in 1988 (1988/89)
Another great song that i pictured Brian performing is Coming Out of the Dark (Gloria Estefan) in his Red Special style, which i may try in the same fashion. Freddie would have nailed both that song and this one too
R.I.P. Cozy Powell😔🥁
One of the best!

Of course it was recognised lol
Love this song... His voice on "I'll be there... No matter where you're going to". Wow
Brian May bloody awesome legend
Listening to this the night before Brian re-releases this album 30 years after it first came out.
Absolutely one of the best rock songs of all time and this performance is just epic.
That was the magic of Queen. Every one of them contributed to create something unique. Each of them were talented

Brian is my eternal love! Adore his songs, music, guitar! Adore his hands! Why, even the rock songs he has such a tender and touching???
Good song, you are the boss brian, thank´s so much!

Canzone incredibile!!!
Cozy Rules!
God rest his amazing sole
ivan carter soul*
An incredible drummer
His passing robbed us of a true virtuoso. 😢
If "Back to the light" would be a Queen Album, it would be one of the best Queen Albums ever.
I bought it instantly when it came out and fell in love from the start. It was like witnessing him crawl out of the hole that he was in after Freddie died and then soaring up into the sky like a bird. Just a marvellous album.
@@Quotenwagnerianer Wow.
@@Quotenwagnerianer I totally agree with you. I believe it's also about recognizing his worth and letting his own light shine through on his own.
@@Quotenwagnerianer I thought he was depressed after his father's death, as opposed to Freddie's?
"We'll be back to the light, cos there'll be no place to hide" damn, who wrote that, was down there. And came back. Late 80s, early 90s we lost a Queen member, but we got another one back.

Why comparing? They are both myths of music
Beautifully put 💕
thanks for uploading, dude... if he is not the best... he is definitely ONE of 3 the best guitar players ever
Well, here we are 8 years later and he was just voted best guitarist of all time
HE IS THE BEST
I went to this one... Great, wonderful memories ❤️
Where were you? i was front left
Я живая ❤
Him royal highness and the fireplace
great
Great tune.
He was my professor in university
REALLY?????? HAHAHAHAHH, AWESOME!
@@ouricadothebest2140 is the best I'm the world
Brian please make a slideshow with your son on it. I love queen and everything you guys did. THE SHOW MUST GO ON :^)
Brian May

Back to the backing vocal girls. 😅😅
KICKIN!
RIP Cozy
Miss ya Cozy.
i was there in the front row !!!
Hey! Thank you so much!!!
Back to the light (Freddie vocal version)(early version Creatures of the night)
Why oh why didn’t Brian do more solo material like this rather than essentially setting up a Queen tribute act all these years?
They are not a tribute act. That's very disrespectful. Brian and Roger are Queen and will always be Queen, a tribute Act doesn't have original members does it?
