Love you all. Thanks for all the love : )
A little bit about me..
Rebecca is a passionate Singer-Songwriter/Vocal coach/mentor /impressionist/photographer/creative junkie /self- development lover not a hater.
“I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well, maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2016. However, despite not being able to walk for a few weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and try to practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…we are all specks of dust…Also, thank you for all your support. It means a lot. I have suffered from anxiety from the past and self-confidence, (yeah hard to see now right) didn’t think I was ‘good, or worthy enough’ but I feel I have a new lease of life, don’t really care as much and want to show you guys what I have! : ) You are all awesome and without you, there would be no channel. - เพลง

She looks exactly like what I expected a vocal coach to look like
DVlogs She has such a beautiful, unique look. Is she Russian from her ancestry? I find her stunning.
A hipster?
@@Locutus that's not quite the hipster look, more like pretentious artist style
@@8LiterallyJustTheNumber8 AHAH spot on, she seems nice tho
@@abdel4683 I agree she seems cool
Give this man a mustache
Go have a look at his audition for queen extravaganza. He sings somebody to love, and wear an epic "dirty stach" to quote him.
that's funny bro
He song like freddie and he is look like freddie
Oh yeaaaaaah
is that a marvel reference
Everyone: "No one can sing like Freddie Mercury."
Marc Martel: "Hold my lemon water."
ah i get the lemon water part
Silverjerk he sounds nothing like Freddy
@@ZiKanWatch I didn't say he sounded like Freddy, I said he sings like Freddy. There's a massive difference in those two assertions. No one can sound like Freddy, except Freddy. But the man sings like Freddy, and that's close enough for me.
Dean Ossas are you not have English
Dean Ossas SPEECH 100
You know Marc is so fucking awesome that Queen didn't want him because his voice sounds 99% like Freddie's. Marc is a boss. Would love to meet him.
John Podzinski he sounds 40% like freddie. I can always tell whether it's marc or freddie.
I close my eyes and listen to him and it's like Freddie is back....I'm obsessed
@@snoopyr1953
“And definitely no costumes. I wanted to avoid some guy impersonating Freddie. The fact that (The Queen Extravaganza frontman) Marc Martel’s voice sound spine-chillingly identical is just a fact of nature, that’s his voice. "When he sings our songs it’s pretty uncanny. You close your eyes and it’s like Freddie is in the room. It’s scary.” - Roger Taylor
John Podzinski I had the opportunity to meet him at a starbucks earlier before his sinfonic queen concert here in my hometown(veracruz,mexico) he is such a down to earth and friendly guy 👍🏼
No one like Freedy even 99%
He didn’t do the high part for the Galileo part because he was doing the Freddie Mercury part
Yeah, his drummer actually did that part lol
Yes
did you watch the other reaction I hear it from others
Not trying to downgrade Marc's performance because he's absolutely amazing, but I don't think he can reach that high note.
asdsadsad tangnamo buy his album called thunderbolts and lightning and listen to bohemian rhapsody he hits the high note with ease
Also listen to under pressure on that album he goes even higher than that note
His voice is the closest to Freddie's. Yes, I can listen to his voice. 😍
〰 aLdA 〰 Gary Mullen is the best in my opinion
Supong Kichu I saw Gary live and he acted exactly like Freddie so it was enough for me
@@jackwardmma1611 Marc will not act like or dress like Freddie, or even grow a mustache.

When Freddie log on on to his second account
Don't copy comments
NMfilmarts some one had to say it
His smurf account
Copied comment
dude you made my day lol
He honestly sings like that.. he thanks his parents for his voice, lol. He even sounds like Freddie when he tries to cover other peoples songs. It's so crazy.
His natural sound is kind of a mix between Freddie Mercury and George Michael. And a bit of Jeff Buckley.
Jamiemar21 Nobody’s voice moved emotions more than Elvis. He was called the king for a reason.
@@devinw5150 i beg to differ.
Jamiemar21 There’s billions that will agree with me. Elvis is and always will be the King. Sold more records than anyone and was watched by more than a billion people worldwide with one concert. Records that still stand to this day.
@@devinw5150 wonderful
It feels like Freddie has been given back to us, he's definitely proud.
its freddie mercury in a new form
A person : no one can sing like Freddie Mercury
Marc Martel : hold my moustache.
アケミク. ALIK. I almost died 😂
Rofl
😂😂😂😂😂😂damn im dead ⚰️😂😂😂😂
😂🤣🤣😅 good one!
ALIK.アケミク. 😂😂
I like how she’s fangirling instead of actually reviewing it Marc is awesome
I disagree
but what is there to even review? he nailed it, only freddy himself could outdo him, other than that theres nothing to review or critique , just enjoy
Hector Exebio good point
This entire video is just like with Tristan Paedes (I so ruined his last name omg woops, sorry Tristan) reacting to Billie Eilish's "Therefore I am"
I sound exactly like him and Freddie.. inside my head.
😂😂😂😂.... hahaha
The headphones? Xdxd
I knowwwww.... me too. Thats what I say but nobody believe me!!! Im glad someone understands me now 🙄😁
I had a dream where I sang with Freddie and the band but when I woke up I was like "no no no please go back to sleep"😂😂
Metoo
Marc Martel is so incredible. He makes me cry every time he sings. He is so Freddie Mercury
Born 1979, son born 2012. Today, "Dad, why are you crying?", "You'll understand later. It took me 39 years."
Anthony Arosemena I don’t get it
Born 1982...I get it
Please, explain
@@ladyodawna what is it omg
@@1Frost you'll understand when you're older ;-)
Marc Martel is the man who can sing Queen officially !!!
He already sanged with the queen
@@gelo_x453 when i want the link please
@@milkyjohnmallari9634 he didnt but he did sing all the songs in the bohemian rhapsody movie
Freddie sings all the songs in the movie, not Martel.
Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger he sang one song I believe
He's canadian... you should hear him speak French... he sounds so different. Met him he's really nice and unbelievable in person.
Where can I hear him speaking french? Could you talk with him? I met him a week ago, but didn't have enough time to talk about anything with him. I just gave him a birthday letter and told him how much I admire him. He said I was so sweet haha. I have no doubt he's a nice person!
Marifer Ortega th-cam.com/video/-08bx6O-U68/w-d-xo.html
@@ThatllShowEm OMG, THANK YOU. I absolutely love his voice in any language! 😍
If you are Marc's friend, please tell him, how much I admire him... For me he is Freddie's voice... Only him.
@@mariferortega8346 And if you want to hear him sing in French, listen to What Child Is This by Downhere. It starts in English then it goes French in the second verse if I remember correctly. One of my favorites to play at Christmastime
Freddie has gotten his wish, his music even now is still very much loved.
He doesn't try to sound like him, he just naturally sounds like Freddie. He isn't an impersonator. People really need to stop throwing things like that at him just to dirty his name
I believe he's Freddie's son, he looks just like Freddie
@@natashka1982 so his mother betrayed his father and lied to him and her son?
By the way he looks like Pavarotti. In a few years he will reached his weight.
@@HundXanthippe WTF? He doesn't look like Pavarotti. You are seriously fucked up lady. I keep seeing you comment stupid bullshit on Marc's videos all the time, making you look like the idiot that you are.
@@Flor_2 those who have no arguments becomes insulting. What is the difference between his mother cheating on her husband with Pavarotti or with Mercury?
@@HundXanthippe his mom didn’t cheat with anyone and you still haven’t answered the question of what is wrong with you that you can’t stop trolling Marc’s videos.
His jaw is similar shape to Freddie’s
Not similar jawline.
Reece Walker1998 his nose too.
Nah. Since he's an imitator he'd do it. No offence tho but he is actually a great imitator
mydadisapotato he doesn’t imitate him he naturally sounds like him
I think it's just because of that, he sound just like him. It's really AMAZING
He is the voice double for the film. :)
And I never knew he was in for the movie. I thought the voices belong to freddie himself. It proves how closely martel voice is!!!
Omg wow
Alot of the clips in the movie is Freddie singing, but the parts that were missing Marc sang them.
Really? I didn't know!!!
I just love that a professional puts in her feelings and allows herself to be blown away emotionally. Because that is really what any evaluation of this "cover" needs to incorporate - the fantastic "Freddie Feeling" of Marks version. He really nails the essence of Freddie to the extent that his live performance sounds more like Freddie himself.
What a great reaction dear Rebecca...
While the Mercury was on the rise, I was too much into Heavy Metal to appreciate him as much as he deserved it...
Better late than never I guess.
He sounds different when he sings opera. But there is so little tension. Such full vocal release. He is the man.
Heavy metal isn't a waste of time either hehe, good heavy metal singers are damn good
@@bryansp9745 Yes. I do not like wasteing time :). Good Heavy Metal is somewhat like opera. Endless quality possible.
Yeah same here.I was too busy with Heavy metal when i was younger.But today,oh god,i'm a so big fan of Queen.Just bought my tickets yesterday for Marc Martel's concert in Montreal for october 2019.Yeah it's far though lol but i have my tickets.Yeah! :)
Heavy Metal?? try listening to Queen 1. 2 and Sheer Heart Attack where the band rocked..Briam May proving he was an amazing gutarist

@@daddiib hey guy go talk to MAAAAAMMAAAAAA or daddy nobody needs you in life your making fun of her and if you wanna make fun of someone go to t series (aka gay series) so be quite what's a reaction without pausing the video you BUM
he sounded like himself....he sang non-Queen songs and yet he still sounded like that. he said he was in a church rock band and every end of performance, few people would come up to him and say the exact same thing, "you know who you sounded like? freddie mercury"....(just watched an interview of him...so....what a humble guy)
"We just sang together"...cracked me up 🤣
In my opinion this is the best cover in history
Oskar Jeff Buckley’s cover of Hallelujah.... Jimi Hendrix cover of All Along the Watchtower...
Disturbed’s Sound of Silence
facts
not opinion but straight facts
Not really. Sound Of Silence ny Disturbed is. I love this song more but Distubed did sth that no other cover artists could do.
Roger did most of the highs in the operatic section,not Freddie. So he's on point by doing the lower notes(:
Dalton Grey thx for saying this I already knew that but I’m glad you told her that 😁😁
Roger Taylor hit the *high* register vocals
Freddie Mercury hit the *medium* register vocals
and Brian May hit the *lower* register vocals
BRIAN IS THE ONE WHO SINGS LOWER NOTES NOT FREDDIE
Meljun Adriano my god the necromancy!
@@meljunadriano857 Not really, for example the F2 Galileos were sing by Freddie
"Any way the wind blows" was the best part
you gotta kind of sound like him if you WANT to sound like him..
He recently covered Somebody to love with another singer , it brought a tear to my eye.
The look at 6:49 was as if someone just told him a kinky joke
😂
As a performer myself, I know it meant "thank the LORD I got through that without mistakes! now let's see if I get through the next section." It was a sarcastic nod to all the times before that he did it and messed up.
R.I.P Freddie.... Its just been the 27th anniversary of his death. He died 10 years before i was even gone but growing up with his music its impossible not to feel the loss too... He was gone too soon but a legend never dies ❤
Huh? He died 10 years before you were even gone? You mean born, right?
Brave Fart lmao
@@lamefart aye obviously. Its pretty clear thats what i meant pal considering the context of my comment but aye, carry on
Carry on...
Nothing really matters...
To me...
😁
27 years ago his illness was a death curse. Today it's controllable with a few pills. I'm really amazed by this fact.
On a random Saturday night I was contemplating the fact that if Freddie's vocal energy existed in this world at one point, it is sure to exist again. I found Marc's cover and I started looking for reactions to it. This particular video caught my attention because the vocal coach caught and enjoyed a lot of the same notes and facial movements that I did. And while I am no professional, it made me so happy to see someone else so happy watching magic being recreated !
Love your appreciation of him. You're a genuine Freddie lover and this guy does him justice!
Yeah, that highest note "for meeee!" was sung on the album by Queen's drummer Roger Taylor.
He didn't do the high Galileo and other parts like that because Freddy didn't sing that part
@@vincecloudchaser2486 uhm because he cant sing live like that, you fucking knucklehead
In the original recording. Freddy didn't take the high notes. :)
@@vincecloudchaser2486 what got you do damn negative
@@vincecloudchaser2486 you're fucking stupid
@@vincecloudchaser2486 Dude chill everyone deserves a little Mercury in their lives ;)
He is fantastic. Aside from how well he can sound like Freddie, he is just a tremendous singer. This song is extremely hard to sing well. Especially as a baritone and ESPECIALLY if you’re trying to get the feel of Freddie. I am continually blown away by this guy.
5:07 that Harmony when they said “I’ve got to go”
Ricardo Mojena thought I was the only one that noticed. Beautiful.
The best!!
Oh God!! It was so beautiful!! Very very beautiful
I will never get over how much Marc Martel sounds like Freddie. I love his cover of Don't Stop Me Now, he put a cool twist on it. Also, cute kitty; that's the exact type of relationship I have with my cat!
4:14 "I just I just I just I just..."
a) can not handle this
b) am trying to make sense of this amount of talent
c) love this 😝
Pretty much !
d) all of the above
Its so amazing to see the joy in your face that his singing brings to you. Well obviously Marc is a one of a kind talent, but the smile he puts on your face is so nice to watch.
I can't be the only one who has watched this video dozens of times, can I?
*Adam Lambert who*
I think you misspelled, it's *_garbage_*
He's crap against Marc tbh
Stop comparing Marc with Freddie. Plus Adam is not trying to be Freddie, so just stop.
Adam is a piece of crap.
Marc is Freddie reborn!
@@carolinaperezrodriguez3680 Adam is a great singer at all but he just doesn't fit Queen
He even crosses his hands when playing the piano just like freddie, I refuse to beleive they they're 2 diffrent people.
It's actually not because he was trying to play it like Freddie, he has to cross his hands because it would be impossible to play the high piano part while keeping the lower parts playing.
This guy makes me cry ... He is so good singer
He didn’t mean to make you cry
Marc's live sound is just like Freddie's voice in studio records, not like live singing, but just like studio "crystal perfect" work! That means a lot!
no matter how many times i watch this Rebecca, im still in awe of your breakdown. also Marcs voice. outstanding. bravo.
That is Marc's natural voice, he's not trying to imitate. He's incredible👏🏼👏🏼
Hmmm not at all, Marc accepted he imitate some movements cause it helps
him to get a similar voice
Daniel Arreola yea but that still means that to a degree it’s his natural voice as well
@@JtheBOSS yeah, but he/she said it wasnt a imitate video when he admitted it was, obviously has a similar (too similar) voice
Daniel Arreola Dude stop acting like you know it even thought you dont. He does not fucking try to be Freddie so get lost
@@jrexx2841 he said that bro, so it's the true
He sounds even more like Freddie when he sings love of my life 👌👌

He sounds exactly like Freddie Mercury on Somebody to Love
Exactly!!!
@2021 Eden Edelbrock-Peterson lmao
He said he was told a bunch when he was in a Christian rock band that he sounded like Freddie mercury. He hadn't heard much so he listened to it and fell in love .
Before I watched Marc Martel's version of Bohemian Rhapsody for the first time: "You want to cover Bohemian Rhapsody? No way..."
Afterwards: "Wow! Just wow!"
Marc Martel is great, i close my eyes and hear Freddie Mercury!
Performance of Marc is more amazing than others cause he masterizes so much to pass one time in head voice to chest voice and reversely without forcing .. and his vibratos are so similar to Freddie ..
He doesn’t try to sound like him he just sounds like him lmao but it’s pretty amazing
Playing Bohemian Rhapsody on the piano the way it's meant to be played! What a legend.
He even looks like Freddie!
Marc and Freddie sound so similar and look slightly similar too.
Murphy J hmm interesting
100% agree.
There is a video on here where some meshed together a video of Freddie singing love of my life in concert but put Marc’s voice over top. So u see Freddie’s mouth moving but it’s Marc’s voice and when I tell you holy damn shit I mean holy damn shit. Watch it.

Adam Lambert =
* One of the best singers today.
* One of the best performers today.
* Has his own artistic personality.
* Authenticity
*Audacious, theatrical and flamboyant.
* True Queen fan since childhood.
Marc Martel =
* Freddie impersonator and several other artists.
* Not part of the select list of the best singers and performers today.
* Has no authenticity
* Clumsy and without creativity on stage.
* He was never a fan of Freddie and didn't even listen to Queen's songs. (according to Marc himself). So, he just saw in Freddie's imitation a profitable business.
Conclusion=
I understand and agree with the choice of Brian and Roger.
@@mankivenon7261 oh I love Adam Lambert I’m not taking anything from him. I love him. I’m just saying Marc sounds just like Freddie. That’s all
Person 1: Marc can sing like Freddie
Person 2: No, he can't.
NEXT TIME ON MYTHBUSTERS
Queen: he sounds a lot like Freddie
People: are you deaf? He sounds nothing like Freddie! You are completely wrong!
Queen: *is confused on how they're wrong*
Little known fact. Marc Martel recorded some of the vocals for the film Bohemian Rhapsody
6:12 she can't stop join singing along with Marc Martel HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I don't think nobody could never stop him or her self from singing along and bang their head to "Bohemian Rhapsody".
Brian may said that Marc sounds way to much like Freddie and he didn’t want that so Adam got the gig.
Shame really.
They didn't want a carbon copy of Freddy for the Oscar performance, they wanted someone who could embody queen by being himself
@@biffjerky4859 Marc Martel is totally being himself and just feeling the music. He just happens to sound like freddie, but he's not trying or copying.
Finders Bleepers Brian May lost his mind, he must think the Queen’s fans want to Marc Martel in a tour with Queen
Brian was thinking from the start only about his ass, he would be still smiling in that band back then if there was no freddie
Imagine you can swear you hear your dead friend singing in front of you but when you open your eyes it's someone else... how painful. The band has every right to reject it.
Guess who god job of additional Freddie vocals in Bohemian Rhapsody movie!!
YOU NEED TO HEAR HIS COVER OF LOVE OF MY LIFE, HE SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE FREDDIE
Love Marc singing Libe of My Life. Seem him in concert, he is amazing.
That song is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard. I want my husband to sing those words to me. I think all anyone wants is for someone to sing those words to them, or wish they could sing them. What a love. What a song.
Project Fez I think she reacted to that video! :)
I might get some hate for this but I think Queen is the greatest band of all time!and Freddy Mercury was the greatest vocalist,he had a such a good range
... why would you get hate for that..?
You wouldnt get hate because youre just stating your opinion lol
No hate here darling. Queen IS the best and Freddie Mercury IS the BEST Voice on the planet. I've been a Queen fan since I was a kid.
@@fiikahlo I just thought that people would be arguing and saying that the Beatles or the rolling stones are the best
@@jasonpowell7305 Nope. there is not such thing as the best band. for me, Pink floyd is the best band in the world, but i dont hate you for liking Queen better. Queen is a hell of a band lol
*Freddie Mercury has entered the chat*
His Bohemian Rhapsody is indescribable but honestly his Love of My Life is just🤯🤯🤯
I am repeating someone's previous comment, but I cannot stop returning to your reaction, almost daily. I love everything about Marc and you expertly pointed out the how masterful his performance is. In addition I love you too, for your expressiveness, spontaneity, knowledge of music, sense of humor, love of Queen and I don't mind your frequent interruptions, I welcome them. They are the essence of your style and character and they are not just empty words, you share your knowledge and emotions. I'm a big fan.
Just shows us you know your stuff ... and that professionals can fangirl with the best of us!
Martel is a freak just like Freddie. He is just one of those guys who has this amazing voice, who never took lessons, they just know how to do it like a kid learning to speak, it came natural to them. Martel says it's genetic, I believe it. They just have all the tools in place from when they were born, in the brain, the shape of the skull, jaw, vocal chords just like bird is born and can sing. They just know how to do it and can do it. Roy Orbison probably more than Freddie and Martel is a bigger freak. Just a one a billion voice, he could just sing like that and cant tell you how he can
o
Beautifully put, totally agree!
van tiu no it’s Martel
Perfect comment. I remember an interview of Jeff Buckley. At this time I was the singer of my band, I knew I wasn't excellent but I would have love so much to sing like an angel. I tried hard, I tried all I can to use my almost 3 octaves vocal range the proper way. Took lessons, studied a lot... But my bone structure, thin neck, narrow jaw and my over muscular body shape was simply not made to produce a beautiful voice. Jeff Buckley was a god to me. And on this interview, the girl asked Jeff : "where do your voice comes from?". He just answered : "I don't know... From the same place as yours I believe". And that was one of the most terrible moment in my life. I realized that some people just received a gift and some don't, and there's nothing you can do about that. I'll never be the best singer, nor the most handsome guy on the planet, the best guitarist or the one who runs faster. It served me well, put my ego down and now I'm ok with that and just have fun. But sometimes, people are so talented, like Martel, Freddie, Jeff or Myles Kennedy and they don't even know why, and it's kind of... I don't know... Desperating if that's even a word.
@@IronLordFitness That's bullshit... Anybody can learn to sing. Sure, some people are born great, but that doesn't mean the people that aren't are doomed.
Marc doesn't try to sound like him, he just does. A few years ago Brian May and Roger Taylor wanted to start a Queen tribute band named the Queen Extravaganza and called for people to send in auditions. Marc blew everyone away. His audition had like 3 million plus hits the first week! He's incredible. They performed many times in England. Due to scheduling he is at the moment not the lead singer for that band but has a Queen tribute band of his own called Queen Celebration. All performances of both bands and Marc's alone are on youtube. His Love of my Life is beautiful as is his own Unchained Melody. The joke is Freddie had a "night out" and Marc is the result. They even have the same face structure and jaw. Marc lives in the US but is from Montreal.
@@papabearM3 Actually you are right and wrong. Yes, I forgot to add "ultimate" in front of Queen Celebration", I'm bad. And I didn't mean that Unchained Melody was Marc's own song, I meant it was a non queen song that Marc sings. And Yes, Zaret and North wrote the song and yes, Elvis sang it, although Zaret who wrote the words was hoping Bing Crosby would pick it up (and what a debacle that would have been). But the BIGGEST hit of it was sung by Bobby Hatfield and the Righteous Brothers. His version is toe curling and he made it one of my all time favorite songs in the world. Jeesh, are you happy now Mr. Know It All? You come off rather arrogant. I'm done.
@Daisy Profits, nine months before Marc was born, Queen played in the northeastern US, just a short drive from where Marc's mother lived. Did she drive down from Canada to see a concert, and stay for an encore? We want genetic testing! ;)
@@odonovan LOL!! We'll never know. We just have to be grateful for Marc's talent, where ever it came from!!
@@odonovan i think that doesn't matter, Marc is Marc, Freddie' parents were't stars, but he was born as many other genius people. Thanks we get him.
Probably cause they have the same facial structure and stuff..
Why this guy is not doing a gig with the Original Queen members?
Marc should do his own Queen Album as a Tribute. I would buy it. Oh, sorry, I hung off every note when Freddie did Queen. You are not old enough to compare. Also I dont think Marc is trying to get it exact, he is not a mimic, he is just the best natural singer who is the closest to FM we have in the world today. This is Marc doing FM's songs "his way" and the only true Queen performance I have heard since FM's death
He has a few Queen cover albums.
1. His one-takes called One-Take Rhapsody
2. A live album with his band the Ultimate Queen Celebration (UQC), performing in Auckland, New Zealand.
3. An EP of Queen covers his way - Thunderbolt and Lightning.
Check his website or any music platform.
hand picked by Brian and Roger to front Queen Extravaganza..so yes indeed he sounds a lot like Freddie,at first possibly coincidental,but after 4+ years singing Queen songs on tour he's as close to a Freddie clone vocally as it can get.
You know, if Marc Martel was born back before the 1990 and Freddie Mercury was born around 20 years ago in the 90s, who would be the clone then? Lol.
@@Cee_Jay_Ward That's a pretty poor argument for trying to elevate Marc's imitation of Freddie.
@@cissyiniguez, it's not an imitation. He naturally sounds like that. He just enhances it by adopting more of Freddie's style. Watch Marc's "how to" video on singing like Freddie Mercury, here on TH-cam. And you can't "elevate" Marc's singing when the members of Queen themselves say he sounds just like Freddie. Sorry, but you lose.
Marc's vocals were used for part of Rami Malek's performance in the Bohemian Rhapsody movie...also, along with being part of the Queen Extravaganza, he performs with the Black Jacket Symphony when they perform A Night At The Opera in its entirety
You should find some quality video of him doing an actual show from his tour, he turns into Freddie, it's absurd! The band also nails every note and beat. They are all incredible.
No he stays himself. That's what he says anyway.
This is his style before he became famous. He used to be in a Christian Rock band in early 2000's.
I feel like you were trying not to cry
Deffo
Marc Matel = THICC version of Freddie Mercury

What is THICC?
@@asierrey5666 its a slang word for chubby in an attractive way :P
Y'all need Ishtar
If Freddy had not being sick with AIDS, he would have probably been just as healthy looking.
In the original it's Roger Taylor who hits the highest note of "for me" with a B-flat falsetto almost 2 octaves above middle C 8:12
Queen was such a monster of a band!
Me, a non musical bitch: I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THAT MEANS BUT HELL YES WE STAN ROGER.
(I know it means he sang it higher, but everything else is just jibberish to me to me to MMEEEEE

Back in the late 1980's and early 1990's after the movie Wayne's World they played Queen continuously on the radio and people playing it in their cars and music stores and i got burned out because everywhere i went they was playing Queen in Night Clubs you name it but 2 years ago stumbled on Mark Martel and was curious if he could pull it or fake it but once he opened his mouth i sat my glass of wine down and my jaw dropped and sat on my couch like a little child very attentive and alert not missing one note he sang..!!
you don't have to be a vocal coach to know how similar to mercury he is all you have to do is close your eyes . marc has one of the finest voices in the world today
But they can help us understand better. Can't they?
@@mrjudgypants better understand what though .
Love how she loved "hearted" most of the comment but not this
but it's the truth . some people just have it and some don't . and he just does. if when he sings you can see mercury in your mind . that's all there is too it
No
I saw Bohemian Rhapsody the day it came out. Me and my friend were wondering if Rami Malek can sing like that. And then I went home and read that it was this guy. Fantastic.
Ah man I saw it today. Gosh I loved every second.
@@rva I'm gonna guess you went home and watched the Live Aid show.
It was not 100% all Marc. They also used original vocal stems from Queen recordings, and Rami actually did sing some in the movie.
Marc was only for a few seconds in the movie, it was 98% Freddie, of course
Your reaction is so natural, feels like sitting with a close friend, having a cup of tea and enjoying the conversation.
When a coach sees Marc, Marc become a coach.
Everytime I watch Marc's performance of this tune especially in this performance, it makes the hairs on the back stand up and it brings a tear... He's just that good! Not to mention his phenomenal musucianship.This is a performance of a lifetime!
You really can't tell that it's not Freddie when you seen em live. I got to catch em in October and was damn near in ears the entire time. I would close my eyes and if I didn't know better I would've thought I was hearing Freddie, just unreal.
I remember when ive told that NO ONE can sing like Freddy. And then, years ago i've watched Rhapsody movie and cant believe my ears. He is just a materpiece true dimond. And i've been on his concert and its absolutly similar to any studio records. Best live vocal i've ever heard.
Just wow!!
I dont understand why Marc isnt a part of the Queen come back, his voice really emboddy Freds all qualities
And Marc is also a very talented songwriter. Imagine him writing new Queen material along with Brian.
@@Leander_ Haha!! What planet are you on Baboo? That will never ever happen and you know that.
Maybe they think it's kinda disrespectful to Freddie.
@@xmasbunnyscotland5355 it’s still okay to imagine it. As a fan of Queen and Marc, to many that would be a natural thought. She’s not saying they should.
@@artfulstories I'm not arguing with anyone you listen to who you like. One thing for sure MM would/will never be in Queen unfortunately he is not good enough. Adam will be there till they retire.
Love your reaction!
Btw, goosebumps. Every single time. Freddie was a god.
I’m just crying.
Greetings from italy!🇮🇹
Yes, HE ROCKS. See how Freddie has influenced ppl now. QUEEN LIVES & WILL LIVE FOREVER!!!
Everytime I hear Marc Martel sing, it is as close we are to present day Freddie Mercury!
That 3:51 - 3:57 was absolutely priceless reaction I've ever seen. Cause on that chorus part of this song was literally everything.
For those of you that don't know, Marc Martel had the vocal singing parts in Bohemian Rhapsody (the movie) since they couldn't use the original songs that Freddie had recorded
Of course they could, and did, use the original songs Freddie had recorded.
@@TheaterPup For the live songs and some of the recorded songs in the movie, they couldn't use the originals. But yes, they did use some of the original songs for the movie
1% only tho
That is his actual singing voice and his vocals were slightly used in the Bohemian Rhapsody the film.
Don't know if anyone here knows this but Marc comes from a Christian Rock band called Down Here and has been singing for years obviously but he is Fantastic!
To do this song only with the piano, shows how good he is. The choruses at the "opera" part of the original recording was a little "battle" between the voices of Freddie and Roger, there were many takes necessary, Marc sings this part alone. As an "old" queen fan (I saw them 1986 in Vienna), I think that Marc's voice is nearly similar to Freddies voice, about more than 90 %. I don't understand that Roger and Brian are touring with Adam Lambert. Marc Martel would be the better one, because he doesn't perform the songs only, he "lives" them. I think Marc's voice is one of the best in the business.
Spike Edney Maybe Roger and Brian don’t want someone who sounds so similar to Freddie because if Marc were to sing with them and then leave, fans might not be able to accept someone else. Adam’s contribution is to honour Freddie and his music, not sound like him. But wow, if I close my eyes, I can picture Freddie singing the songs Marc performs and for us fans to be able to do that is a gift. I don’t understand why some people trash Marc. He’s allowing us to have Freddie back for a bit in our minds again and we should be very grateful for that gift.
I think you're right of the similarity of Marc's voice. I like Adam too, but Marc's voice is out of this world. I've seen Freddie live and for myself it's Marc who has the same intensity for the old Queen songs. That's why I love him so.
Ogni tanto mi vengo a rivedere questa reaction. 😎
Una delle più belle reaction per una delle più belle performance di Marc. 🚀🚀🚀🚀
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Just saw Mark sing this whole song with a band! He Rocked it just like Freddy! He brought the whole house to a standing ovation!
I swear the man is like reincarnation of Freddie Mercury
Forse stesso dna, meraviglioso
