    Great tune! I could write so much about this tune but it would overload the server. The vocal section is so amazing and in tune. So incredibly clever. The same line repeated three times and timed perfectly. Brian May had the initial idea of repeating an instrument exactly but at a different time interval during the guitar section of Brighton Rock. He expanded the idea to repeating the line two times and using vocals and lyrics for this track. Brian May’s best song, by far!

    When I saw them on their tour for this album they DIDN'T play this song. Very disappointing. But on their next tour ('A Day At The Races') they DID do it. The vocal interlude was just Freddie and an Echoplex used in the same way that Brian uses it in "Brighton Rock" in concert. Simply stunning!
    Undeniably one of Queen's best songs. So glad to finally see your reaction to it. Very satisfying.

    I was fortunate enough to see them perform this track live. A brilliant piece by Brian May. A great ascending bassline by John Deacon, finished off by Roger Taylor, who was always amazing.Freddie’s voice, and his arrangement on the canon, was innovative at the time. It wasn’t accapella- they were loops, repeated, to build the layers. ,

      @imweakfordeaky 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not was it just “a dream”, it was a *fever dream* Brian had when he was very very sick in 1974.
      But from what I have learned of Brian, “idea dreams” are a fairly common occurrence for him - I know he had such an idea dream during the worst of the Covid restrictions : he was dreaming of ways to reconfigure the ventilation system in the Apollo Hammersmith (once known as the Odeon- Hammersmith) concert venue to make it safer to have audiences. So he and a small, hand-selected team of trusted scientists and techs were granted permission by the venue to see if Brian’s idea-dream translated to real world terms. ( I believe they DID learn some things that made having events at least *somewhat* safer … and opened more avenues of research).
      According to some random article I once saw, this kind of inspired “idea dreaming” that becomes a work of scientific or artistic merit in the real world is the hallmark of genius-level IQ - which definitely describes our Rockstar Astrophysicist, Dr. Sir Brian Harold May!

  • @bobcarr2649
    @bobcarr2649 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This was " anything you can do I can do better" from Freddie to Brian. The thoughtful and musical use of echo started on the first Queen album, and developed from there. But if you want to know where this came from it has much more in common with Queen 2 than with Sheer heart Attack. And ever since I heard the album, this was always the standout track, not Bohemian Rhapsody.

    Hi Justin. Dave from London, with Friday On My Mind. So many to choose from, but if I had to pick my all-time favourite Queen song, this would probably be it. Yes, it rocks and there's a portentous feel to it, but the innovation and imagination for its time (or any time) is off the scale (several scales maybe?). The vocal harmonies were just so influential, even to this day.

You totally needed those headphones! appreciate your reaction... (p.s. hope you had lyrics.. also, this goes straight into "Love of My Life"..

Lots of songs that got significant time on the radio. However, I had not heard the Prophet's Song before and like you I was blown away and not sure why this song isn't even more popular than it is as it is absolutely legendary.

    I know you did March of the Black Queen a few years ago but Queen II would be a great album to put on your list. It has one of my all time favorites, White Queen, although to be honest the live version from Hammersmith Odeon is even better. As good as NATO is, I have always preferred their first three albums.

    It's on a different album, but you might like 'Great King Rat' if you liked this one.

    One of my favorite Queen song! I feel one of Queen's best songs.

    Hearing something like this was so unbelievable back then. Imagine this after the first side. If this is a favorite of yours you will really like Queen 2. This would have been just one of the breathtaking stand outs on Queen 2
    I think I have mentioned or people have mentioned a technique that Brian used with multiple delays. Back then they were tape echoes. He would set the time of the delay to come back far enough behind that it could harmonize with the note he was currently playing. He used two tape echoes for three part harmony. He does this in the song Brighton Rock and would use for his extended guitar solo portions at live concerts. And here they used it with Freddie’s vocal.

    Love this track Justin thank you . Sorry you weren’t more informed . The only reason I didn’t say carry on the bridge into love of my life was because I thought I’d be one of hundreds telling you the same thing . Obviously everyone else thought the same 🤣. If you see that documentary Brian May will tell you how he detuned his guitar to get that dark growling sound . Hope you get to play this album in entirety soon so yo can hear that beautiful transition between songs . See you soon .

    This song is seldom properly appreciated and little mentioned. It's one of Queen's greatest tracks, and for me, right up there in this album alongside Bohemian Rhapsody and '39. Queen at their proggiest - so innovative, varied, masterful. There you go JP, now you know. Just another reason this is their best album.

      Well, Somebody to Love is peerless, but the rest of it doesn't stack up to the best of Opera for me. All of their albums are uneven - I don't see a perfect one among them. Taste is taste though, enjoy! @@Owlstretchingtime78

    Where did this come from? Listen to their first teo albums. For example, the song Liar.

    Queen’s Masterwork, seen them perform it live in 1977 it was epic..

  • @EchoesDaBear

    Great reaction JP! Where did this come from? A dream that Brian May had about the Great Flood and his fears about the human race.
    I use this song as an example that Queen could do prog...and heavy at that!!
    Such an epic track...and yes, better than Bohemian Rhapsody (IMHO - and I love BR immensely!) This song hits me hard, every time!
    The segue into Love Of My Life is perfect...and provides a much needed respite after the barrage we just experienced! Cheers.

    JP, you might find a live record called _One Live Badger_ from 1973 of interest. Tony Kaye of Yes is the keyboardist/founder, Jon Anderson producer. It's the best sounding live album to date as of 1973 and every song on the record is really good, Roger Dean did the cover, the music is basic rock with prog stylings.
    Easy to imagine the guys in Kansas who released their first record a year later listening to it and saying wow!.

    So more of this could include but not limited to, LIER, White Queen, Ogre Battle/The Fairy Feller’s Master-Stroke/Nevermore/March of the Black Queen. The “Medley” (Ogre-Black Queen) all blends and WILL NOT DISAPPOINT! March of the Black Queen in particular

    Now you know. Now you know. Now you know. So glad you discovered this epic. Sorry it took you so long to find it!
    Still, idk about best track - Death on Two Legs is always going to hold that crown for me.

    One small detail that I appreciate is that every time you have the lines like "listen to the wise MAN!" or "listen to the good PLAN!," the accented word is over a different chord every single time.

    Really cool song - based on English Tudor folk song styles - the vocal Round in the middle is unforgettable. I heard a similar thing with a lead guitar playing a Round of The Anvil Chorus by Verdi - I don't know if it's on this album, but Brian May might have played it.

    This track is usually overlooked in favor of Bohemian Rhapsody, it is equally epic. This album has been my favorite of Queen's since it was released in 1975.

    That was pretty much the same reaction I had nearly fifty years ago lying on the floor in my parents' den. Every minute or so I asked myself (the Universe), "How is it possible that it just keeps getting better?"
    Like others, it seems obvious to suggest that Queen II be your next album. Yes, March of the Black Queen is epic and a favorite of mine, but White Queen is hauntingly ethereal and Father to Son has a mighty fine May solo. Yeah, you'll like that one...

    Love your music picks. Not mainstream. That's why I want you to hear the British band Groundhogs, Sad is the Hunter. A blues & rock band most famous in the early seventies.
