i was sooo skeptical, just like im with everyone who tries to do a Freddy cover but god damn i was sooo wrong. dis dude right here......just wow. Hats down sir
Seriously... "Queen" could actually have a Very spot on recreation of the original sound/vocals with this guy singing/doing shows... (NO disrespect to Freddie Mercury, please understand that...) RIP Mr. Freddie Mercury... *As well as NO disrespect to Adam Lambert... Adam Lambert is a great singer, with an AWESOME vocal range... But IMO Marc Martel is just soooo incredible... WOW! Close to perfect...
That's not true. Chris Lipe, Micheal Spence, Anthony Vincent, and Mathias Proctor all clearly are just as good as him and all clearly serve Freddie justice. You obviously have not watched them before. I love marc martell but honestly now that I have seen these guys I can at least say that micheal spence and chris lipe both sound much closer then him and Mathias Proctor is very close.
And now he's changed his band name to One Vision of Queen (OVoQ). He does perform with other bands occasionally. Right now (Oct 22-Nov 4/2022) he's on a tour in the Baltic, eastern Europe and in a few central Asian countries with musicians from Moldova, and they're calling it A Celebration of Queen w/Marc Martel.
@@pantelisdalezios811 My mother was in her fifties when I was a teenager listening to Queen all day long! She actually liked them a lot. Compared to the blues/hardrock my older brothers listened to.
0:08 whaaaaat, they did that fade in/delay with the harmonies perfectly that goes from "caught in a landslide" to "no escape from reality", i'm replaying that forever
Roger said when Marc was rehearsing for the tour...he had to leave the auditorium because he was sitting with his back to him doing something & Marc was singing this song & he thought it was Freddie...brought all these memories back he said..
I think I found something: "On a recent afternoon in Toronto, Queen's Roger Taylor was checking out rehearsals for Queen Extravaganza - a 25-date tribute tour with a lineup hand-selected by him and his bandmate, guitarist Brian May - when singer Marc Martel belted out a few notes from "Bohemian Rhapsody," stopping the 62-year-old drummer in his tracks. "It was as if Freddie (Mercury) was in the room," Taylor said today during a conference call with journalists. "It was uncanny."

goodoldfashionedloverboy Very Nice!! and yeah the similarities are really impressive! I wish they kept playing tho :/ I didn't to go to one of the concerts
Even the way his voice "fails" (for lack of a better term) sound exactly like the way it happened on Freddie live. Unbelievable. You literally can't fake that shit. This guy is absolutely amazing.
What are the chances that someone is born that has a timbre and vibrato similar to Freddie, and even looks like him? There are only so many things you can learn through practice. There's rather a lot of raw talent right there. Amazing. Also, Marc sang all the songs Rami "sings" in the movie Bohemian Rhapsody, so he got his moments of glory!
He looks like Henry Cavill too. One of the best vocalists of all time and today’s “sexiest” man alive in one dude. Those are some fucking genes I want apart of.
the whole thing too about Mark is that that's his real sound to his voice. he is not trying to sing like Freddie. listen to all his original stuff. He actually sounds like him.
The only difference is that many use the term impersonator as a slam and a way to degrade the performance. I've made the point before that it is only in popular rock music that this occurs. In opera you wouldn't use terms like impersonate or cover. You would just say he sounds like Pavarotti, which would be a huge compliment. Saying, you sound like Mercury, is also a HUGE compliment. But some don't realize just how rare this is.
Well, I think this is a kind of taste. If you want somebody who imitates Freddie then you are right with Marc. And I think he does that well. If you want someone who has a great voice and showmanship and a similar kind of thinking and perhaps character then Adam is your man. I belong to the second group. ❤️
Bonnie Clyde yeah both are great singers, i think in performance and show Adam is better, but in the voice is marc for me better, because his voice is veryy close to freddie!! Adam is a great singer, one of the best i know, marc said it too, 1 in 100millions have the talent like adam. But freddies voice and power in the voice is 1 time of the world!! Thats why i mean that marc is better, because he habe to 99% the voice like freddie!! :)
Adam is REALLY good, amazing. But Martel is in my opinion more Freddie than Adam. Queen (brian and roger) think that they had just one Freddie, and Adam is just a really good singer who joined them. That's why it's called Queen + Adam Lambert. They do not want another Freddie.
We'll just have to agree to disagree then😊.....One thing is clear, either would be better than the woeful (imo) Lambert, who I maintain lacks tone....A lot of folk like it....I'm not one of them.
The fact that this is basically a Church band covering a Queen song, musically doing pretty good and vocally owning it, amazing job, and Marc Martel should be singing with Queen, not Adam Lambert
El hombre perfecto para estar en Queen,junto a Brian y Roger(ojalá también John)....Marc si es realmente un regalo de Dios,para nosotros los fans de Queen(y ahora de Marc,claro)...ojalá entendieran eso....
The hair on the back of my neck stood up & I got chills. If anyone is channeling Freddie's voice it's Mr. Martel right here. I closed my eyes and listened and Darling, it's just like Freddie!
Listening to this makes you realize how much we miss freddie...may you R.I.P...and Marc ..this is great and you should be the only person to cover freddie...🙏🙏..bless you. Brother
Marc is such a fantastic singer. This band is amazing too...though Im a little bias because I've been playing guitar with these folks for over ten years now.
I just saw this. It’s not my first time hearing you, but it’s the first for this particular video. Just wow! It’s amazing. You personify Freddie but still are true to yourself. That’s truly beyond belief. I’m certain, Freddie must be smiling. The band and background vocals were wonderful, too...so glad I listened. ❤️❤️❤️
This is one of his finest vocal performances! He deserved more response from the audience! It may be my imagination, but I think his voice has improved over the past few years, with increased touring and so on
It's interesting, in this performance he seems to me that he really tries to imitate the same tones as Freddie in the original and he came pretty close. But I prefer it when he doesn't follow such an Orthodox path.
@@pantelisdalezios811 because theyre different people dumbass, their singing styles but sound similar and stop comparimg him to freddie give him credits for trying his best and sounding good like you can do any shit better Dalezios. plus this video is 13 yeara old go listen to his new songs 😕☝️
10 out of 10 for the efforts the sound team put in to what was probably a small regional theatre. 1 out of 10 for the lighting tech. 11 out of 10 for what should always be considered the best live cover version of this complicated and internationally well known song. Awsome to say the very least...
Not bad for a church praise team and a guest singer. Yes this was a church service. The preacher was doing a series taking the pain expressed in popular songs and giving solutions to the hurts.
Marc Martel needs Millions subscribers. I have never stop watching his videos. You melt my heart with every Queen songs you covered. Freddie is happy to see you from heaven.
Vocally yes but Freddie was an amazing entertainer. Marc doesn't have that sparc that Freddie had. Freddie was really entertaining to watch and nothing will come close to him.
phillip reed Entertainment is secondary to any singer. Had Freddie not had the voice he had, no amount of entertainment would do a thing. First and foremost, Freddie was the singer and an amazing singer at that. And, in fact, it's good that Marc is not trying to mimic Freddie's mannerisms because that would be fake and overdoing. One cannot try to replicate another person 100% without looking like a parody. Marc has his own performing style and that's what makes him authentic. And that's what Freddie was - authentic. It's authenticity and what you do with your voice that makes a singer great. That intangible thing (which some call feeling etc). There are lots of people with powerful voices, but very few true artists, because not everyone has the talent to use their powerful instrument and put their soul/feeling into it (i know, sounds cliche, but that's true)
belochka alas, entertainment seems to be the main thing these days, otherwise talentless fat-arsed twats like Minaj would be scrubbing toilets. I agree that Marc is much better off not mimicking Freddie and Marc's voice is spellbinding.
I've "played" a few of Downhere songs but man..I don't have that voice. I saw my earlier comment from 2008 about him being on his way up ..came back 12 years later to say I told you so. And yes I have seen his performances of Queen songs with his latest band, just Feb 2020

Your voice is a gift from God which warms our hearts and it is as if Freddie had never died. He would have been very proud of you. Thank you so much, Marc.

You sung this 13 years ago and you're now the frontman of Queen Extravaganza. You really are something, Marc.

Dude deserves to book Wembley with Roger and Brian
I just asked my mum to name the singer just by sound. She looked at me like I was crazy and said, "It's Freddie." I showed her the video, mind blown.
LOL.
Same here, my father too
@@ToddandRaquiForrest Yeah because his mum has heard Mercury two or three times in her life.

+Syahrul Anwar Adam is famous already, so he put some butts in the seats. :-0
because Adam is gay
With this guy sounding so much like Freddie, there'd be 10 times more butts in the seats.
but Marc sounds way way better
He is.

Exactly. Listen to his song Dead Ringer.
yep, those similarities of jaw and teeth perhaps. it contributes to his voice timbre though
+Rick Scicluna
I don't get it. If the end result sounds like Freddie what's the difference if he's trying to or its natural?
