To give an idea of how big they are and Continue to be, their greatest hits album has spent 900 weeks on the UK album chart, that's over 17 years and is 23x platinum in the UK alone.
Autotune didn't exist when this song was recorded. The members of Queen (Freddie Mercury, Roger Taylor, Brian May, & John Deacon) were so amazingly talented that they actually sounded better live than on studio recordings. Even though Freddie was the lead vocalist (his voice was astonishing) but Roger's and Brian's voices are also better than most lead singers in other bands.
Don’t worry about wether or not people will like you posting constant queen videos… because I can guarantee everyone will love to watch you discovering all their classics, so keep them coming 👍🏻👍🏻 Edited to add… once you get to know their songs, watch the movie bohemian rhapsody. It’s all about the rise of queen and it leads up to their live aid performance 👏
I should have wrote that differently. He was never a trained dancer, but the musician never shied away from collaborating with dancers and choreographers. Mercury teamed up with The Royal Ballet back in 1979 for a sold-out concert.
what ^^^ Mdx said. even if you only posted Queen reactions people would never tire. bonus for you, you'd also always gaurantee a huge number of views lol
The film "Bohemian Rhapsody" was good, but fairly inaccurate in a lot of ways. Don't take everything it tells you as truth. Which is a shame. Rami Malek made a wonderful Freddie!
Yes it's Freddie, Freddie Mercury a genius! Listen to as much of their music as you can! I guarantee you will be a fan for the rest of your life!! Love the vids with trying our chocolate & sweets especially the ones with your friends! You're all so cute! Take care, I'll send you some Curly Wurlys! xx
Freddie was master of the stage he was not just a frontman/singer he was very much a performer. A lot of his movements on stage are not just a front but very much done with timing and meaning for the band. When you come to watch the live aid concert you will see he can very much control the audience and the thing was they were not even a dedicated Queen audience either. Freddie was an absolute artist in every sense of the word!
Freddie Mercury "Farrokh Bulsara" was a British singer, songwriter, record producer and lead vocalist of the rock band Queen. Regarded as one of the greatest singers in the history of rock music, he was known for his flamboyant stage persona and four-octave vocal range. ( 5 September 1946 - 24 November 1991 )
Freddie is multifaceted, you should react to Barcelona he sings with Montserrat Caballe. She is an Italian opera star who he greatly admired. They created this song together and it was used to open the Olympic games. X
It was their first single to chart at no 10 uk. I really like that song it's a shame it's not better known now. Love of life wasn't released but became a fan favourite
@@bluebell3720 I was born in 81 so i didnt know whether it charted, I just knew it wasnt a huge hit. Love of my life, breaks my heart every time i hear it , beautiful song.
SO excited for you to be discovering QUEEN! Freddie Mercury was UNSTOPPABLE in Performing Writing Charisma The BEST FRONTMAN That could bring his audience to their knees - The audience literally followed his every move - as if He was CONDUCTING Them!!!! & HE WAS! You will be AMAZED by his commanding performances in his Live's! NOTHING COMPARES TO FREDDIE!!!! When YOU SEE THE "SEA" OF HIS AUDIENCE ITS MAJESTIC! "We Will Rock You" GREAT QUEEN SONG! "Somebody To Love" -- "We Will Rock You" ----- but keep in mind a lot of his songs are live too thanks for doing QUEEN!!!!!!!!!!! ----------- FREDDIE MERCURY SAID - I WON'T BE A ROCKSTAR - I WILL BE A LEGEND AND THAT HE IS!!!!! 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃
I think someone's getting the Queen bug. The Legendary Freddie Mercury and queen. They were all brilliant vocalists and song writers, musicians in their own right.
Yeah that’s Freddie, the best frontman/vocalist that ever lived, he’s Micheal Jackson level of talent with less dancing but more voice. A. Few songs I’d recommend would be “I want to Break free”, “under pressure” and “crazy little thing called love”
The video was banned as the band were in drag as a homage to a classic British soap - coronation Street. Freddie in a wig and skirt with tache is funny 😄
@@Rokurokubi83 I reckon Roger's "hot schoolgirl number" was actually more detrimental internationally than Freddie's camp busty number, or Brian or John's very obvious pantomime dame stuff.
When you get around to watching the 1985 Live Aid performance bear in mind that Freddie had nodules in his throat and his doctor did want him to take part. Freddie, being the trooper that he was, insisted on performing and went on to steal the show.
In addition to the nodules, which were diagnosed in 1975, he had laryngitis the week before the Live Aid concert and was advised by his doctor to cancel his appearance. He ignored the advice and went on to make history.
@@susanengland3919 I had a discussion with a few of the guys regarding Queen live. Not my bag at all but it's subjective. In the studio they were special. I would have liked to have seen them pre 75.
Brilliant reaction it’s great watching the younger generation discovering Queen I’ve been a fan since the early seventies you should react to this song live from the Milton Keynes Bowl in 1982 the band on fire Freddie doing a bit of pole dancing 😂😂 Queen covers all genres you can’t put them into one category x no auto tune no ear pieces who communicated on stage by eye contact or discreet signals, just four amazingly talented musicians please react to Somebody To Love from Montreal 1981 x
Queen is very well know in the USA. It depends upon the parent's whether someone his age knows it. In another video, he says his friends have expressed shock he's never heard of Queen. I have teens. Their circle's parents have made sure they know the older artist. Most of my kid's friends know Queen. But, there could be some who don't
White Queen Live at The Hammersmith Odeon 1975 … Dragon Attack. Live in Montreal 1981. Somebody to love LIVE Montreal 1981 OR Somebody to love LIVE at Milton Keynes Good places to start … prepare to be overwhelmed with comments 😂👍. Live with Queen is usually best !! And you’re right… No auto tune back then !! Real instruments and singing 😂 WHAT A CONCEPT !!
It's so fun watching someone discover Queen for the first time. They've been my band since I had their Greatest Hits as my first album when I was 10. 26 years later I have inhaled everything they've done
I'm exactly the same, loved them since i was kid, finally going to see them this year!!!! Edited to add: watch the video for 'I want to break free', it was banned in North America if I remember correctly.
Very happy that your Queen journey continues. My own began during a ski trip to Turkey when the ski lift operators appeared only to have a Queen tape available so that Queen were continually blasting across the slopes. I followed this by by buying my first Queen tape in the Kasbah for 50c! Yeah, tape, it was that long ago! You might enjoy the superb 2018 film, "Bohemian Rhapsody" starring Remi Malek that tells some of the Queen story.
Great reaction! Fun little fact , This song is written by Brian May , the guitarist , who completed his phd in astrophysics in 2007 , Yep , He sure is a man of culture Since you seem to not know many of the band members name , let me clear it : Freddie Mercury : Lead Singer Brian May : Guitarist Roger Taylor : Drummer John Deacon : Bassist All of them play multiple instruments and every band member has wrote multiple hits for the band and three of them sing lead or backing vocals on almost every queen song Talking about reacting to more queen songs before live aid concert so it doesn't spoil anything You may want to react to the studio versions of the songs performed at live aid before reacting to it The songs are mentioned below :- Bohemian Rhapsody (already done) Radio Gaga Hammer To Fall Crazy Little thing called love We Will Rock You We are the champions
Another fun fact about Dr. Brian May was that he released one of his most recent singles here in Joel's home state, a few years back! "Musician Brian May has released the song he wrote in honour of NASA's New Horizons mission, which has successfully received information from a space object 6.4 billion kilometres away. The Queen guitarist, who also happens to be an astrophysicist, wrote a song called New Horizons, his first solo work in more than 20 years. He debuted it at Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Md., early New Year's Day." www.cbc.ca/news/entertainment/queen-brian-may-new-horizons-song-1.4963148
Brian Mays brother is the 3 rd presenter on the Old Top Gear . James May Aka , Captain Slow . He is also exceptionally well qualified , a pilot and studied science . Not many people realise how successful both these brothers have been in their respective fields .
I also grew up listening to Queen with my tapes , rocking around my bedroom. Queen will never be outdated. Awesome group excellent lead singer . My favourite video is I want to break free give that a watch jp
The secret of Queen's versatility is that all four of the band members not only wrote songs, but they all wrote hits. In fact all four of them have been inducted into the songwriters hall of Fame. Not only was auto tune unnecessary, it didn't exist yet. Btw Freddie designed the Queen logo. And Brian May, who is now an astrophysicist, wrote this song because he knew Freddie appreciated generous backsides.
I think it's great that you've been reacting to some British music along with your regular content, I know you probably don't want to turn into purely music reactions but peppering some in here and there between other topics can only be a good thing! I guess reacting to some music is another gateway to British culture too, there are many great artists like The Beatles, Elton John, David Bowie, Sting / the police (stewart copeland is an American) and many more across all decades! keep up the good work mate :)
Nice reaction, one of the notable things about Freddie is the costumes, there is almost one for every release and they are all stunning, ive been to fancy dress parties where people have worn different freddie costumes. Another favourite for me is the soundtrack to the 1980 s flash gordon film. Which they did. Incidentally it would be interesting to see you react to Brian Blessed (actor ) who is another British Treasure.
If we're lucky enough to have 'Flash Gordon' screening anywhere in Maryland, I would volunteer to take Joel & Co. to wherever it's playing. Love that film! ⚡ ⭐
Joel, so glad you appreciate the music. You are right it transcends generations. My 13 year old niece is a massive Queen fan. You need to watch the movie of Freddie Mercury's life and the rise of Queen. Its call Bohemian Rhapsody. Excellent movie and it will really make you understand and appreciate Queen and Freddie Mercury and what a unique artist he was and what brilliant mind. The movie was made in 2018 so very recent xx
Hey Joel! Welcome to the Queen experience. Listen to one of Freddie's and the bands last recordings. "These are the days of our lives". A tear jerker, if ever there was one. love your content. Keep on rocking!
Freddie for ever Best group in the world. Still love Queen even though I am 74. I ride my exercise bike to their music. Really gets me moving and dancing. Queen for ever. Having one of their songs playing at my funeral !!!
Another great song from Queen. Joel, yes when you go down that rabbit hole you will never come out. The more you listen to, you will become a fan forever. PS Love your vlogs.
Love it Joel, you are getting the Queen vibe. I think doing these videos is a good way to dip into music reactions, do a few more of their songs intermittently with the other stuff you like to do, and see what you think of it from there.
I suggest having a look at David Bowie & Mike Jagger song dancing in the street. Freddie Mercury was a British singer, songwriter, record producer and lead vocalist of the rock band Queen. Freddie lived the music full of pathos from head to toe. In fact, he was also an outstanding ballet dancer. In 1979 he performed with The Royal Ballet. During the ballet performance, he sang Bohemian Rhapsody and Crazy Little Thing Called Love, two of his Queen hits.
Fat Bottomed Girls was released as a double A-side along with Bicycle Race. The lyrics of the song contain the text line “Get on your bikes and ride”, a clear reference to the other A-side. Bicycle Race has the text “Fat bottomed girls, they'll be riding today, so look out for those beauties, oh yeah” which refers back again. So now you have to react to Bicycle race too!
I don't know if anyone has already posted this, but if you're wanting to familiarise yourself with the songs first, here is their setlist for Live Aid. “Bohemian Rhapsody” “Radio Ga Ga” “Hammer to Fall” “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” “We Will Rock You” “We Are the Champions” A little bit of the background to this concert. Live Aid was a benefit concert in 1985 for the victims of famine in Ethiopia. It was mainly organised by 2 musicians, Bob Geldolf (singer, The Boomtown Rats) and Midge Ure (singer, Ultravox). They brought together the biggest bands and artists at the time to play at the all-day concert at Wembley Stadium, London. It was televised live to 1.9 billion people, in 150 countries around the world. At that time that was about 40% of the world population. The thing that made the Queen performance, and Freddie in particular, even more astounding is how the 72,000 crowd at Wembley were not just Queen fans as there were about another 20 bands/artists playing there that day. Really looking forward to you watching it.
When you have some time and If your interested in learning more about them the movie “Bohemian Rhapsody” was released in 2018. The film tells the story of the life of Freddie Mercury, the lead singer of the British rock musical band Queen, from the formation of the band up to their 1985 Live Aid performance at the original Wembley Stadium. Such a great movie that taught me so much about Freddie and the band. Enjoy!
You should react to 'Somebody To Love' by both Queen as well as George Michael's cover version of that same song, Joel. It shows Freddie's versatility in not just his songwriting but also his singing and George's cover version of it is just fantastic as well. 'Fat Bottomed Girls', 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love', etc show his 'rocker' side whereas 'Somebody To Love' shows his more sensitive and romantic side. Unfortunately 'Somebody To Love' was omitted from their Live Aid performance but it didn't stop them from completely stealing the entire concert especially when you consider that there were 70,000+ people at Wembley Stadium on that day and they were all clapping along in sync with their hands above their heads and with one other during 'Radio Gaga'. Incredible. On a more upbeat note though 'Bohemian Rhapsody' ( the film and not the song ) is premiering on Channel 4 this coming Saturday, 19th February, at 9 p.m. and Rami Malek won an Oscar for his portrayal of Freddie in that film. I can't wait.
It's my favourite, followed by Radio Gaga. I was lucky enough to see them several times from when they were just started out to Rio...a special treat from my husband.
Freddie Mercury died in November of 1991. Auto tune came into existence in 1997. Brian May, lead guitar, wrote the song, which is the reason his guitar was heavily featured. In songs written by John Deacon, bassist for the group, his bass guitar is featured. Same with Freddie and the piano and Roger with his drums.
I did tune into the Super Bowl I watch it every year in attempts to learn the rules to American Football. WHAT A HALFTIME SHOW!!! I’m so happy you are enjoying Queen.
@@zoemn24 , nice! I mean, I understand most of the scoring rules for American football, it's all the little things like 'downs' and such that confuse me. Guess I could read up on it more. Right now, too busy trying to understand how Curling works, watching the Winter Olympics. 😃
@@adlad75 I don’t fully get it but this year was the first year I feel as though I kinda knew what was going on. 🤣 I am currently watching Curling 🥌 at the Winter Olympics too. Are you watching USA vs Australia or Great Britain vs Sweden. I got a good handle on that a few years ago now.
I love that you post at 3 AM CST....true college student timing..😆 it really makes me feel old that you're just finding Queen...I was a IRL fan and saw a couple concerts.....
Seriously - you HAVE TO WATCH the ENTIRE Live Aid Performance. It is simply the BEST CONCERT MOMENT IN ALL OF MUSIC HISTORY. Tens of thousands of people in the stadium. The energy is as powerful as a hurricane. After that, watch the movie Bohemian Rhapsody - it tells Queens story pretty well - and Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury is OUTSTANDING.
You think this is crazy, you should see the video‘s!!! They are AWESOME! This song and the flip side, Bicycle Race. They were normally played back-to-back on MTV back in the day. Cheers
Great reaction! Yes, Queen is a rabbit hole. You might listen to Montreal 1981 live performance. Somebody to love and Killer Queen followed by I'm in love with my car (performed by drummer Roger Taylor) are absolutely awesome.
Hi Joel, love your reaction videos. You are a joy to watch. I'm not the biggest fan of rock music but there is no denying Freddie Mercury and Queen are just phenomenal. There is actually a 2018 film called Bohemian Rhapsody that is about Queen and Freddie Mercury. It might be worth a watch if you can find it on a streaming service, not as a reaction but just for you to learn more about the band if you are enjoying their music.
Freddie was one of if not the best performer/entertainer of all time, you should absolutley check out Queens performance at live aid, and also check out Freddie Murcury and Montserrat Cablle duet Barcelona
I am so enjoying watching you discover Queen and - almost equally - enjoying reading all the comments; you can see the amount of love there still is for the musical genius that is Freddie Mercury; as you say, so versatile and just....amazing. If you are planning to watch videos 'as they come up' then I hope you don't miss out on 'Barcelona' 💃
Freddie the greatest showman and musician the world has seen I was in my twenties when Queen were at there best can you imagine going to one of there concerts it was electrifying watch all there music you will be hooked for the rest of your life .
It's great watching young Americans reacting to Queen and saying "I don't know who they are".... then when they watch the "Live Aid" concert and discover they wrote and sang the original songs... "We are the Champions" and "We will rock you"... excellent.
Brilliant video, thank you. Have a look at Moody Blues and Procol Harum, you might like these. Also Disturbed version of sound of silence, and Red Hot Chilli Pipers for something totally different!
It is FREDDIE MERCURY ..... he was amazing, such a beautiful voice, and not just Freddie, but the whole group are very clever people. Freddie is the perfect showman. His voice lives on.
Next you need to try bicycle race, the b side of this record on 45, it’s referenced on this song” get on your bikes and ride” fat bottomed girls are mentioned in bicycle race. No one ever seems to mention the incredible drums on this song, Roger does an incredible job. I want to break free is also a fun video to watch, all the band members are dressed up as characters from a , at the time wildly popular British soap opera.
Love your response to Queen. Freddie even wrote an Opera (& I don't really care for opera) he songs his opera with the queen of opera in Spain It was fantastic!
I bought this double A-Side single as a teen in the UK. "Get On Your Bikes And Ride" at 3:59 is a reference to their song, "Bicycle Race" - the flip-side of Fat Bottomed Girls - which also has a line that references THIS song. So, it looks like Bicycle Race could be your next Queen reaction.
Check out the Bicycle Race video. The saddles on the bikes had to be replaced after the video was made because the company that supplied the bikes (Halfords) found out how they were used and asked the video production company/Queen to purchase new ones. David Duffield, who was the marketing manager for Halfords also didnt know until the day how they were going to be used, but still allowed it to go ahead. Good old Duffers :-)
@@ian_bradley I would imagine it’s because they were naked... some people may have had a problem with that...😂 but I heard that they sold the “ used seats “ and they were VERY popular..🤣🤣🇬🇧
@@Ionabrodie69 ah, right, fair enough🤪😂🤣 not that you could really tell on the video I watched, because of the graphical effects they used! Thanks for the info, much appreciated! I was a youngster at the time...under 10yo!😂🤣 Life is an education!...
That's my theme song, lol If you like Queen, try The Who. A great rock band from way back, playing raw rock with no fancy tricks. I recommend starting with an early song "I can't explain", or "My Generation". Members of the original band are still working, and there is a tour planned for this year. Old rockers don't retire...they just go deaf.
Loving watching you discovering Queen! (You have a LOT more to find yet!) Perhaps in the next music reaction you could mention some current bands/songs that you like, so we can find out what your music taste is, in comparison to Queen? Love all your vids, keep it up!
Freddie was a one-off and could get away with wearing anything..Freddie wasn't angry in this, he was being the usual showman that he was..Fantastic song, fantastic group...👏👏👏
Certainly Freddie Mercury was unique, but he wasn't alone in his uniqueness, what about the early periods of David Bowie? T Rex / Marc Bolan? Any glam rock band, really. Even Elton John was quite eccentric in his styles throughout the 70s and even into the 80s. Thank goodness for those who were able to break out of conformity! 😉🤩😏
Lead guitarist Brian May one of the world great guitarist, the guitar he plays was made by him and his father he picks his strings with a coin an English six pence Freddie Mercury is the lead singer
Queen have loads of great stage performances with different songs. My favourite is radio ga ga at live aid. Freddie Mercury was a great front man and off stage was so nicely spoken.
JPS (John Player Special) have been a make of cigarettes in the UK for many years, and I can't help thinking of them every time you introduce yourself.
Haha! The Headmistress at my school confiscated my Bicycle Race/Fat Bottomed Girls double A sided single that I bought in to play at the school disco as soon as she saw it! (Look up the single cover artwork!!!) These songs also appeared on the album Jazz... Which has a rather interesting fold-out poster of a Bicycle Race. 👀😆
"BICYCLE RACE" is the sibling track to this, these cross reference each other in the lyrics e.g."get on your bike and ride". Make sure to watch the official video of that one.
Try watching the Queen at Live Aid concert...not only will you hear them do some songs I bet you will recognize..and probably did not know they wrote...but you sill see what an incredible performer Freddie Mercury was. The Live Aid concert was considered the greatest live Rock performance ever .By the way , Queen was played quite often on the radio , but before you were born. They were Multi Platinum , and created soundtracks for film like the 1980's remake of Flash Gordon , and the 90's film Highlander with Christopher Lambert and Sean Connery.
I am loving this Queen journey you’re on bro they are 🔥 I hope you educate yourself on their history and the genius that is Freddie Mercury, the film Rhapsody came out a couple of years ago and that’s also worth a watch
fun reaction! Also, IF you do like a song - studio version/official video Do look the same song up in a live concert format. You can put money down that it will be different and equally (if not more) entertaining! LOL - you want outfits? watch live Queen, & Freddie goes from catsuits to unitards, to kimonos, to pleather, to short shorts, to his famous Wembley yellow jacket. Freddie said theirs weren't just concerts, they were fashion shows.
Thanks, Kid - love your real reaction -- yep, that's Freddie -- this song, though, written by guitarist Brian May -- and slammed by drummer Roger Taylor - and bassist John Deacon -- I really enjoyed this - and I think you're the kind of guy that will go on to listen to more... (I'm old.. but a Queen fan from teenage years.. ) It's very enjoyable to me to see and hear "kids" appreciating such an amazing band.. thank you, really!
Haha I think we have all been harassing Joel about the live aid, he was kind enough to message me back saying he is definitely watching live aid after some of their music vids ❤️🏴 p.s your teeth look lovely 😊
I HIGHLY recommend you watch the 1981 Montreal live performance of Somebody to love....it shows the difference between the studio versions of their songs versus how they play them live - they are Incredible live. And in my opinion, that live performance of Somebody to love is just....indescribable. PLEASE watch dude 😊
You are really fun to see discovering our age singers and bands! I smile all the way aroud! Now yust for you to know, listen to Pink Floyd's The Wall (for start) you'll love it. Cheers from Italy.
Freddie Mercury was an absolute f***ing legend. Incredible voice, incredible showman. A huge, huge loss to the musical world, gone far too soon.

I'm exactly the same, loved them since i was kid, finally going to see them this year!!!!
Edited to add: watch the video for 'I want to break free', it was banned in North America if I remember correctly.
@@vikkieckersall6623 Ahhh me too, I can't wait!
@Ross O'Keefe I know, it's going to be so great, was supposed to be last year so 🤞we can go this year!
Very happy that your Queen journey continues. My own began during a ski trip to Turkey when the ski lift operators appeared only to have a Queen tape available so that Queen were continually blasting across the slopes. I followed this by by buying my first Queen tape in the Kasbah for 50c! Yeah, tape, it was that long ago! You might enjoy the superb 2018 film, "Bohemian Rhapsody" starring Remi Malek that tells some of the Queen story.
Great reaction! Fun little fact , This song is written by Brian May , the guitarist , who completed his phd in astrophysics in 2007 , Yep , He sure is a man of culture
Since you seem to not know many of the band members name , let me clear it :
Freddie Mercury : Lead Singer
Brian May : Guitarist
Roger Taylor : Drummer
John Deacon : Bassist
All of them play multiple instruments and every band member has wrote multiple hits for the band and three of them sing lead or backing vocals on almost every queen song
Talking about reacting to more queen songs before live aid concert so it doesn't spoil anything
You may want to react to the studio versions of the songs performed at live aid before reacting to it
The songs are mentioned below :-
Bohemian Rhapsody (already done)
Radio Gaga
Hammer To Fall
Crazy Little thing called love
We Will Rock You
We are the champions
Another fun fact about Dr. Brian May was that he released one of his most recent singles here in Joel's home state, a few years back!
"Musician Brian May has released the song he wrote in honour of NASA's New Horizons mission, which has successfully received information from a space object 6.4 billion kilometres away.
The Queen guitarist, who also happens to be an astrophysicist, wrote a song called New Horizons, his first solo work in more than 20 years.
He debuted it at Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Md., early New Year's Day."

You are correct . My mistake . Ihad read that somewhere . And did not check .
My bad .
It’s Valentine’s Day. I recommend that you listen to Love of my Life live in Montreal. Just Freddie, Brian on guitar and the whole audience!
I grew up with Queen. It's really satisfying to see younger people like yourself getting the Queen bug and becoming a fan.
I also grew up listening to Queen with my tapes , rocking around my bedroom. Queen will never be outdated. Awesome group excellent lead singer . My favourite video is I want to break free give that a watch jp
Joel: You should do "Queen - We Are The Champions" (Official Video) - You will love it !
The secret of Queen's versatility is that all four of the band members not only wrote songs, but they all wrote hits. In fact all four of them have been inducted into the songwriters hall of Fame. Not only was auto tune unnecessary, it didn't exist yet. Btw Freddie designed the Queen logo. And Brian May, who is now an astrophysicist, wrote this song because he knew Freddie appreciated generous backsides.
I think it's great that you've been reacting to some British music along with your regular content, I know you probably don't want to turn into purely music reactions but peppering some in here and there between other topics can only be a good thing! I guess reacting to some music is another gateway to British culture too, there are many great artists like The Beatles, Elton John, David Bowie, Sting / the police (stewart copeland is an American) and many more across all decades! keep up the good work mate :)
Certainly hopeful he'll get to some different time periods, topics and other countries and cultures, as well. 🗺✈🎸📼⚽
It's great to see you in the beginning of your Queen journey!! So glad to see that you appreciate their music!! Great reaction!!
Hi Joel, check out the Live Aid concert for a brilliant live performance and watch how Freddie has the crowd eating out of his hand.
Nice reaction, one of the notable things about Freddie is the costumes, there is almost one for every release and they are all stunning, ive been to fancy dress parties where people have worn different freddie costumes.
Another favourite for me is the soundtrack to the 1980 s flash gordon film. Which they did. Incidentally it would be interesting to see you react to Brian Blessed (actor ) who is another British Treasure.
If we're lucky enough to have 'Flash Gordon' screening anywhere in Maryland, I would volunteer to take Joel & Co. to wherever it's playing. Love that film! ⚡ ⭐
JP's ALIVE??????????

@@adlad75 and not to forget Stephen Fry
@@andreasobuaculla9511 , Stephen Fry and Flash Gordon? Hmm, I don't recall the connection there?
Freddie was quite the showman. You have many more songs from this band to come so sit back and enjoy the journey!!
Freddie was a genius, the follow up to this song is Bicycle race in the video loads of naked ladies riding racing bikes around a track 🤣🤣
I want to ride my bicycle 🎤🎤🎤
Joel, so glad you appreciate the music. You are right it transcends generations. My 13 year old niece is a massive Queen fan. You need to watch the movie of Freddie Mercury's life and the rise of Queen. Its call Bohemian Rhapsody. Excellent movie and it will really make you understand and appreciate Queen and Freddie Mercury and what a unique artist he was and what brilliant mind. The movie was made in 2018 so very recent xx
Hey Joel! Welcome to the Queen experience. Listen to one of Freddie's and the bands last recordings. "These are the days of our lives". A tear jerker, if ever there was one. love your content. Keep on rocking!
You are such a lovely respectful young man. I love your posts! I'm 72! Yay! Queen have been in my life from being in my 30's. Rock on!
Freddie for ever Best group in the world. Still love Queen even though I am 74. I ride my exercise bike to their music. Really gets me moving and dancing. Queen for ever. Having one of their songs playing at my funeral !!!
Another great song from Queen. Joel, yes when you go down that rabbit hole you will never come out. The more you listen to, you will become a fan forever. PS Love your vlogs.
Love it Joel, you are getting the Queen vibe. I think doing these videos is a good way to dip into music reactions, do a few more of their songs intermittently with the other stuff you like to do, and see what you think of it from there.
I suggest having a look at David Bowie & Mike Jagger song dancing in the street.
Freddie Mercury was a British singer, songwriter, record producer and lead vocalist of the rock band Queen.
Freddie lived the music full of pathos from head to toe. In fact, he was also an outstanding ballet dancer. In 1979 he performed with The Royal Ballet. During the ballet performance, he sang Bohemian Rhapsody and Crazy Little Thing Called Love, two of his Queen hits.
Mick Jagger by any chance?
YES, us oldies in Uk 70yrs old love Queen! But listen to Freddie’s duet BARCELONA, will knock your socks off! 🤣
Omg I love them so much. It’s so great to see you become a fan too. Freddie was unique but they’re all phenomenal musicians
I’m nearly 80 now and always loved Queen. Glad you found them. One of their early songs is ‘Seven Seas of Rye’
Fat Bottomed Girls was released as a double A-side along with Bicycle Race. The lyrics of the song contain the text line “Get on your bikes and ride”, a clear reference to the other A-side. Bicycle Race has the text “Fat bottomed girls, they'll be riding today, so look out for those beauties, oh yeah” which refers back again.
So now you have to react to Bicycle race too!
I don't know if anyone has already posted this, but if you're wanting to familiarise yourself with the songs first, here is their setlist for Live Aid.
“Bohemian Rhapsody”
“Radio Ga Ga”
“Hammer to Fall”
“Crazy Little Thing Called Love”
“We Will Rock You”
“We Are the Champions”
A little bit of the background to this concert. Live Aid was a benefit concert in 1985 for the victims of famine in Ethiopia. It was mainly organised by 2 musicians, Bob Geldolf (singer, The Boomtown Rats) and Midge Ure (singer, Ultravox). They brought together the biggest bands and artists at the time to play at the all-day concert at Wembley Stadium, London. It was televised live to 1.9 billion people, in 150 countries around the world. At that time that was about 40% of the world population. The thing that made the Queen performance, and Freddie in particular, even more astounding is how the 72,000 crowd at Wembley were not just Queen fans as there were about another 20 bands/artists playing there that day.
Really looking forward to you watching it.
When you have some time and If your interested in learning more about them the movie “Bohemian Rhapsody” was released in 2018. The film tells the story of the life of Freddie Mercury, the lead singer of the British rock musical band Queen, from the formation of the band up to their 1985 Live Aid performance at the original Wembley Stadium. Such a great movie that taught me so much about Freddie and the band. Enjoy!
You should react to 'Somebody To Love' by both Queen as well as George Michael's cover version of that same song, Joel. It shows Freddie's versatility in not just his songwriting but also his singing and George's cover version of it is just fantastic as well. 'Fat Bottomed Girls', 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love', etc show his 'rocker' side whereas 'Somebody To Love' shows his more sensitive and romantic side.
Unfortunately 'Somebody To Love' was omitted from their Live Aid performance but it didn't stop them from completely stealing the entire concert especially when you consider that there were 70,000+ people at Wembley Stadium on that day and they were all clapping along in sync with their hands above their heads and with one other during 'Radio Gaga'. Incredible.
On a more upbeat note though 'Bohemian Rhapsody' ( the film and not the song ) is premiering on Channel 4 this coming Saturday, 19th February, at 9 p.m. and Rami Malek won an Oscar for his portrayal of Freddie in that film. I can't wait.
Great to hear this song! Though well known, I'd wager that it would be way down the list if you asked people to name Queen songs, and it's brilliant!!
It's my favourite, followed by Radio Gaga. I was lucky enough to see them several times from when they were just started out to Rio...a special treat from my husband.
Think you would be surprised...!!! True fans know it as much as the bigger ones.. 🇬🇧
The best parts of your videos for me, when you do a genuine giggle as the weird bits 😂
Imagine being able to hear Queen for the first time. How exciting is that? Quite a journey to go on. We're all very happy to go on it with you.
Freddie Mercury died in November of 1991.
Auto tune came into existence in 1997.
Brian May, lead guitar, wrote the song, which is the reason his guitar was heavily featured.
In songs written by John Deacon, bassist for the group, his bass guitar is featured.
Same with Freddie and the piano and Roger with his drums.
I did tune into the Super Bowl I watch it every year in attempts to learn the rules to American Football. WHAT A HALFTIME SHOW!!! I’m so happy you are enjoying Queen.
Watched almost my whole life and still don't understand all the rules. 😁
@@adlad75
I have been watching every year I can and they’re on for around 4/5 Super Bowl’s now. I understand it a little better every year. 🤣
@@zoemn24 , nice! I mean, I understand most of the scoring rules for American football, it's all the little things like 'downs' and such that confuse me. Guess I could read up on it more.
Right now, too busy trying to understand how Curling works, watching the Winter Olympics. 😃
@@adlad75
I don’t fully get it but this year was the first year I feel as though I kinda knew what was going on. 🤣
I am currently watching Curling 🥌 at the Winter Olympics too. Are you watching USA vs Australia or Great Britain vs Sweden. I got a good handle on that a few years ago now.
I just loved how you were so into that pumpin through your headphones, genuine mate big up😜
I love that you post at 3 AM CST....true college student timing..😆 it really makes me feel old that you're just finding Queen...I was a IRL fan and saw a couple concerts.....
I'm pretty sure he schedules them so they automatically upload at 9am GMT, which is awesome.
He said the Super bowl was starting within the hour. He simply times his videos to come out for us at 9am in the UK.
Seriously - you HAVE TO WATCH the ENTIRE Live Aid Performance.
It is simply the BEST CONCERT MOMENT IN ALL OF MUSIC HISTORY.
Tens of thousands of people in the stadium. The energy is as powerful as a hurricane.
After that, watch the movie Bohemian Rhapsody - it tells Queens story pretty well - and Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury is OUTSTANDING.
You think this is crazy, you should see the video‘s!!! They are AWESOME! This song and the flip side, Bicycle Race. They were normally played back-to-back on MTV back in the day. Cheers
Great reaction! Yes, Queen is a rabbit hole. You might listen to Montreal 1981 live performance. Somebody to love and Killer Queen followed by I'm in love with my car (performed by drummer Roger Taylor) are absolutely awesome.
Hi Joel, love your reaction videos. You are a joy to watch. I'm not the biggest fan of rock music but there is no denying Freddie Mercury and Queen are just phenomenal. There is actually a 2018 film called Bohemian Rhapsody that is about Queen and Freddie Mercury. It might be worth a watch if you can find it on a streaming service, not as a reaction but just for you to learn more about the band if you are enjoying their music.
Freddie was one of if not the best performer/entertainer of all time, you should absolutley check out Queens performance at live aid, and also check out Freddie Murcury and Montserrat Cablle duet Barcelona
I am so enjoying watching you discover Queen and - almost equally - enjoying reading all the comments; you can see the amount of love there still is for the musical genius that is Freddie Mercury; as you say, so versatile and just....amazing. If you are planning to watch videos 'as they come up' then I hope you don't miss out on 'Barcelona' 💃
Freddie the greatest showman and musician the world has seen I was in my twenties when Queen were at there best can you imagine going to one of there concerts it was electrifying watch all there music you will be hooked for the rest of your life .
It's great watching young Americans reacting to Queen and saying "I don't know who they are".... then when they watch the "Live Aid" concert and discover they wrote and sang the original songs... "We are the Champions" and "We will rock you"... excellent.
Brilliant video, thank you. Have a look at Moody Blues and Procol Harum, you might like these. Also Disturbed version of sound of silence, and Red Hot Chilli Pipers for something totally different!
It is FREDDIE MERCURY ..... he was amazing, such a beautiful voice, and not just Freddie, but the whole group are very clever people. Freddie is the perfect showman. His voice lives on.
Can’t wait for your Live Aid reaction!
Next you need to try bicycle race, the b side of this record on 45, it’s referenced on this song” get on your bikes and ride” fat bottomed girls are mentioned in bicycle race. No one ever seems to mention the incredible drums on this song, Roger does an incredible job. I want to break free is also a fun video to watch, all the band members are dressed up as characters from a , at the time wildly popular British soap opera.
Love your response to Queen. Freddie even wrote an Opera (& I don't really care for opera) he songs his opera with the queen of opera in Spain
It was fantastic!
I bought this double A-Side single as a teen in the UK.
"Get On Your Bikes And Ride" at 3:59 is a reference to their song, "Bicycle Race" - the flip-side of Fat Bottomed Girls - which also has a line that references THIS song.
So, it looks like Bicycle Race could be your next Queen reaction.
Fat bottomed girls
They'll be riding today, so look at those beauties, oh yeah.
*O N Y O U R M A R K S*
*G E T S E T*
*G O*
Get yourself the greatest hits on vinyl,readily available and enjoy! Here in the UK they are a national treasure! Keep up the good work jps!
Check out the Bicycle Race video. The saddles on the bikes had to be replaced after the video was made because the company that supplied the bikes (Halfords) found out how they were used and asked the video production company/Queen to purchase new ones. David Duffield, who was the marketing manager for Halfords also didnt know until the day how they were going to be used, but still allowed it to go ahead. Good old Duffers :-)
I've just watched the (official) video and can't see any problems or issues with the use of the bikes (or cycles if you prefer, lol)???
@@ian_bradley I would imagine it’s because they were naked... some people may have had a problem with that...😂 but I heard that they sold the “ used seats “ and they were VERY popular..🤣🤣🇬🇧
@@Ionabrodie69 ah, right, fair enough🤪😂🤣 not that you could really tell on the video I watched, because of the graphical effects they used! Thanks for the info, much appreciated! I was a youngster at the time...under 10yo!😂🤣 Life is an education!...
That's my theme song, lol If you like Queen, try The Who. A great rock band from way back, playing raw rock with no fancy tricks. I recommend starting with an early song "I can't explain", or "My Generation". Members of the original band are still working, and there is a tour planned for this year. Old rockers don't retire...they just go deaf.
Loving watching you discovering Queen! (You have a LOT more to find yet!)
Perhaps in the next music reaction you could mention some current bands/songs that you like, so we can find out what your music taste is, in comparison to Queen?
Love all your vids, keep it up!
“ I think this guy’s name is Freddie “. 😂😂😂😂😂 Love it !!!!
Freddie was a one-off and could get away with wearing anything..Freddie wasn't angry in this, he was being the usual showman that he was..Fantastic song, fantastic group...👏👏👏
Certainly Freddie Mercury was unique, but he wasn't alone in his uniqueness, what about the early periods of David Bowie? T Rex / Marc Bolan? Any glam rock band, really. Even Elton John was quite eccentric in his styles throughout the 70s and even into the 80s.
Thank goodness for those who were able to break out of conformity! 😉🤩😏
@@adlad75 Agreed. How about Peter Gabriel in Genesis. Dressing up gone mad! Haha!
Hey Joel....LOVE your channel!! You need to see Freddie and Montserrat Caballe perform Barcelona....Amazing! Keep up the good work!
Freddie and Queen the more you listen to them..their songs are so related to life dealings and relatable to us as well.
Great reaction.👑🎶🎶❣️
Lead guitarist Brian May one of the world great guitarist, the guitar he plays was made by him and his father he picks his strings with a coin an English six pence Freddie Mercury is the lead singer
Queen have loads of great stage performances with different songs. My favourite is radio ga ga at live aid. Freddie Mercury was a great front man and off stage was so nicely spoken.
I love your reaction and I love Queen listen to all of their music it is great.
JPS (John Player Special) have been a make of cigarettes in the UK for many years, and I can't help thinking of them every time you introduce yourself.
Haha! The Headmistress at my school confiscated my Bicycle Race/Fat Bottomed Girls double A sided single that I bought in to play at the school disco as soon as she saw it! (Look up the single cover artwork!!!)
These songs also appeared on the album Jazz... Which has a rather interesting fold-out poster of a Bicycle Race. 👀😆
"BICYCLE RACE" is the sibling track to this, these cross reference each other in the lyrics e.g."get on your bike and ride". Make sure to watch the official video of that one.
Try watching the Queen at Live Aid concert...not only will you hear them do some songs I bet you will recognize..and probably did not know they wrote...but you sill see what an incredible performer Freddie Mercury was. The Live Aid concert was considered the greatest live Rock performance ever .By the way , Queen was played quite often on the radio , but before you were born. They were Multi Platinum , and created soundtracks for film like the 1980's remake of Flash Gordon , and the 90's film Highlander with Christopher Lambert and Sean Connery.
You’re so right, their versatility is off the charts. The whole beat of this gem is downright infectious!
Oh yes! Exactly my reaction when I first heard them in 1973. I was 12 and loved them from that moment.
Great driving music, will you be adopting that look for your next track event?
Also an other band U2 "where the streets have no names" it was filmed in downtown LA....
In UK always on the radio and in the top charts for single and album I had the pleasure of seeing them live on other group can come close for me x
Great reaction Joel “Somebody to love” and “Under Pressure “ please!
I am loving this Queen journey you’re on bro they are 🔥 I hope you educate yourself on their history and the genius that is Freddie Mercury, the film Rhapsody came out a couple of years ago and that’s also worth a watch
It was on the radio in the 70’s and 80’s and is still on the radio today. No auto tune then, you had to be able to sing!
Did you know Brian May (the guitarist) is also a physicist. Not only is he a brilliant guitarist he is also a very clever and intelligent person.
fun reaction! Also, IF you do like a song - studio version/official video Do look the same song up in a live concert format. You can put money down that it will be different and equally (if not more) entertaining! LOL - you want outfits? watch live Queen, & Freddie goes from catsuits to unitards, to kimonos, to pleather, to short shorts, to his famous Wembley yellow jacket. Freddie said theirs weren't just concerts, they were fashion shows.
Thanks, Kid - love your real reaction -- yep, that's Freddie -- this song, though, written by guitarist Brian May -- and slammed by drummer Roger Taylor - and bassist John Deacon -- I really enjoyed this - and I think you're the kind of guy that will go on to listen to more... (I'm old.. but a Queen fan from teenage years.. ) It's very enjoyable to me to see and hear "kids" appreciating such an amazing band.. thank you, really!
Queen & David Bowie Under Pressure.
'Barcelona'!!!!
Haha I think we have all been harassing Joel about the live aid, he was kind enough to message me back saying he is definitely watching live aid after some of their music vids ❤️🏴 p.s your teeth look lovely 😊
It's a classic, glad you liked it. Please have a look at Who Wants To Live Forever. Freddie's voice at its finest
I HIGHLY recommend you watch the 1981 Montreal live performance of Somebody to love....it shows the difference between the studio versions of their songs versus how they play them live - they are Incredible live. And in my opinion, that live performance of Somebody to love is just....indescribable. PLEASE watch dude 😊
You are really fun to see discovering our age singers and bands! I smile all the way aroud! Now yust for you to know, listen to Pink Floyd's The Wall (for start) you'll love it. Cheers from Italy.
Check out Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy from 1977.
You mentioned his outfit, so I really recommend I Want To Break Free, I think you will love his outfit in this video and of course it's a great song.
