4 guys, 1 piano, 1 drum set, 1 bass and 1 guitar. Magic.
In the later years they had Spike Edney on keyboard backstage in order to make it possible for Freddie to perform in front -!
@@anne-mariesindruprix4792 He also played guitar on some songs.
Utterly ❤!
BEST BAND OF ALL TIME
Freddie once said "if you want to hear the studio versions of their songs, stay at home and listen to the albums". They changed the pace of their songs so each concert performance is unique.
Roger on the drums and singing is amazing too.
Damn, the tone from John Deacon's bass in this performance is amazing.
Queen's secret weapon
Uncle Freddie never used auto tune what heard from him was 100% Talent 😘😍🥰 R.I.P Uncle Freddie 🌹❤
Freddie ❤️😪🌷
Shannon....get real!...there was no auto tune in those days😉
@@josephinemonahan915 agree,but he sounds great..unlike the robo-musicians of today
Bit hard to use something that wasn’t even invented until 1997…6 years AFTER he died
I was in the crowd as a young teen. We traveled 14 hours by car to see this performance. Well worth it. My entire family was at the concert. My dad was not really a Queen fan until this concert.
Thanks to the young guy, in the blue cap, on the right for acknowledging John Deacon on bass. Most reviewers totally overlook his contribution to the band. If you want to really hear his skill on bass, check out Millionaires Waltz. Amazing! Love Deaky.
Hi. Carol...yes John is definitely overlooked sometimes...he makes playing the bass look so easy....what about his solo in Liar?...live at Hammersmith Odeon..amazing!..Hi John, I hope you’re keeping well🌺
Also he wrote Another One Bites The Dust. A great song. But there will never be another Freddie! Miss him. Vocal and musical geniuses!!!
Yes! Can't forget John! He contributed so much more than anyone knows!
John wrote a lot of their songs too.
Freddie. One of the sexiest men to have ever graced a stage.
Er, well Lynda, I've something to tell you...
@@willswomble7274And what exactly would that be?
@@LyndaHill He came from a very traditional, strict family but 'wanted to be free', BIGTIME...
I was fortunate to see Queen live in concert back in August of 1980 at the Baltimore Civic Center. Freddie owned the crowd the moment he stepped on stage. What a show!
I also saw them on that tour, in Memphis 8/5/80. Saw them in ‘74 & ‘78, too. And of course you’re right- they were a force of nature live, and Freddie always had surprises for us, of one sort or another!
@@3ScotsInk After you gave the date of the Memphis show, I had to check. The Baltimore show was on August 23. I still have the ticket stub in a photo album. One of many.
Awesome that you kept souvenirs. Wish now that I had. I met Freddie at the hotel after the 74 show where Queen was actually the warm up band, though I’d been a fan for a year by then, and didn’t even ask for an autograph. Sounds crazy now, but he was so different offstage- very soft spoken, friendly, and human, it just seemed to me that it would’ve felt, like, inappropriate to ask for that. Anyway, it’s always nice to run into someone else who saw the same tours that I did. Memories, and in your case, memorabilia to last a lifetime.
Roger Taylor is an excellent drummer and singer. It’s his voice that goes high in Bohemian Rhapsody.
It's Roger singing the background vocals throughout! He is amazing to sing and drum at the same time!
What exactly are you doing with that car Roger?😂
Freddie once said he could sing so high that only dogs could hear him!!🤣🤣👍🏼
Roger can sing high, but on Bohemian Rhapsody all the vocals were done by Freddie, then layered onto the track
His falsetto is so flawless… while killing it at the drums! Omg.
The kid on the right at the end, "Jesus Christ". 😂 Nailed it! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Anyone knows just how awesome it was to see Queen 3 times... 1978, 1980, 1982???.... I do !!!!
I was at LIVE AID in Philadelphia , they paused our part of the show from England and we watched on HUGE TV screens ..what a day it was
Was there as well. Unforgettable experience.
Was in Sydney, Australia
Rodger Taylor Drumming and backing vocals, never gets enough credit!!!!!
Must see Queen - "White Queen" - Live at Hammersmith Odeon 1975. You will be blown away!!!
YES!! Great suggestion!
Me too.!
I think a lot of people don't realise just how good the other 3 in the group were in their own right. They all wrote hits songs for Queen and could sing. Freddie was a once in a century talent though and his star just shone brighter.
the greatest vocalist and frontman of all time guys
It's a secret, but on that day, Queen produced so much energy the city of Montreal had free electricity during the concert! 😁
👍😁😁😁😁😁😁😁👍
Wish I were there.
This is why the SUPER 70S WERE SUPER!!
@@kenperkins7921 They were the best years of my life and I'd do it all again but this time I'm gonna take more pictures!😉👑
😂❤ great!
I was fortunate enough to see Queen twice in the Seventies and were the most incredible shows that I have ever seen. Freddie was the most phenomenal showman that I’ve ever seen live, a once in a lifetime experience....
Roger Taylor of Duran Duran (drummer) always said his idol was Roger Taylor of Queen - he could sing and drum like no one else! Queen had an amazing lineup of artists!
I was at that concert. I saw them twice in Montreal and at the LiveAid concert. You are right, they were better live than the studio version. Being at the Live Aid concert was the experience of a lifetime. But seeing them in Montreal also blew my mind. This was the era when musicians had pure raw talent. By the way, it wasn't beer. Freddy never drank alcool on stage. It was tea with honey and lemon. I am lucky to have been able to see some majestic concerts from Queen, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd etc. That was real music!!!
Brian May is one of the best guitarists ever. Roger Taylor is criminally underrated on drums. But, it's easy to get lost behind the brilliant Freddy Mercury.
And no mention of John Deacon’s mastery on bass?
And of course Deacy on bass
*Freddie
What ab the fact that Roger Taylor could be a lead singer for a band
and we have that guy on bass !! ahahah
Dont stop me now it's rated the happiest song on earth.
Freddie, the best voice of Rock yesterday,today and forever.
Nope, that honor belongs to Stephen Ray Perry. He’s dubbed “The Voice,” not Freddie. Even Brian May acknowledged that Steve’s voice was once in a lifetime. Plus, this year, Steve was voted greatest male vocalist by Billboard Magazine’s fan poll. Fans picked Steve at 67%. Sorry, he just wasn’t as good as Steve.
Freddy’s vocals a lot of times sound forced. I’m not saying he’s not amazing. I’m not saying he’s one of the greatest. He’s not the greatest. That distinction belongs to Steve. He can hit the highest of highs and slide down the low and back up to high again with absolutely no effort, no cracking, his voice no forced notes he’s just amazing! There’s never been anyone like him and there won’t ever be anyone like him again. If you have any doubts about that, you should go listen to the live versions of Patiently, Lay It Down, Why Can’t This Night Go On Forever, Mother/Father…
Those songs I’ll have extreme local acrobatics in them and Steve has every note flawlessly live. Even in this version of somebody to love, you can hear the forced notes from Freddie sometimes. You’ll never hear that in a live version from Steve Perry.
I’m not saying Freddy is an amazing like I said he is. But he is Nazi. He’s not even close to Steve Perry’s voice.
Freddie Forever Loved & Missed. .xx
None of them were vocally trained INCLUDING Freddie. Freddie god given gift 👑❣️👑❣️👑
I seen Queen in 1977 live and it was phenomenal!
YES !
You are right. If I remember correctly, Tim Rice said that if Freddie had been trained, he wouldn't have been able to sing the way he did. Thank god he wasn't trained.
@@carlstevenwilletts great point Carl, would have restricted him certainly.
Any other band Roger or Brian could have been lead singer except they had Freddie - no Freddie wasn't trained, just a natural.
The best band of all time.
Kudos please to drummer Roger for his incredible backing vocals the entire song!!!!!
They were the ULTIMATE live band! Every song. Every performance. Every time. Freddie was a rock God! Long live The King of Queen!!! Love of my life.
QUEEN IN THESUPER 70S... 70,GRRR RATE! queen in the 8s ....DiSGUTING!, PAR FOR THE 8S😅
Unless you are homosexual.
Think he would have preferred to have been called the Queen lol
It's good quality because it was filmed. Freddie was wonderful, but kudos to Roger, playing his heart out on the drums and doing vocals at the same time, taking the high notes, with his head twisted to one side for the mic! Brian and John on top form as always.
I was at that concert , in fact 2 in Montreal and the liveaid concert and I can tell you, filming or not, they were better luvr that the studio version. !!
Aunque no hubiese sido filmado sus interpretaciones eran brillantes, nunca fueron menos.
What’s it being filmed gotta do with the quality??? It’s good quality because it was filmed using 35mm cameras (cameras used for filming movies), also the dvd of this show was upgraded to hd and 4k
Save Me from the same concert! One of the best songs ever.
I love how Freddie and Roger switched lead vocals so that Freddie could do all those delicious sound effect back up sounds. S P E C T A C U L A R !!!!
Queen doing Live Aid-mind blowing.
It takes a special talent to pull off what Roger Taylor did. They are all so amazing. I love Queen!
Shout out to Roger Taylor for bringing those back up vocals! // I start my day with this performance almost every single day.
He was the best lead singer no band ever had.
Deb.. great point
One of the greatest performances ever
Respect to the three of you for treating this with the respect it deserved. And as Bette Davis quipped fasten ya seat belts it’s going to be a bumpy ride!!
Way too many superlatives needed to even remotely describe Queen and their live performances. Totally in synch with each other - this really is one of the iconic-of-all-time live performances!
Each member of Queen was legendary. Unbelievable talents. Of course Freddie had some extra brilliant shine.
I absolutely love this song! Lord I miss Freddie!
Just makes me happy
Please also watch "Queen Live Aid" from 1985 with their also big big Hits "We Will Rock You" and "We Are The Champions" - thanks so much for showing this one :) - cool !!
Please react to Save Me Montreal 1981 Thank You
Save Me is a stunner of a ballad...a gem of a jewel.
Yes!! 😍 And "Now I'm Here" LIVE @ Wembley.
Adore Roger Taylor, the drummer, too!! John Deacon the bass guitarist was hardly mentioned, & was always the way, he wrote songs too. Brian May (lead guitarist) is incredible too!! Good old Freddie....RIP
At 9:08, “some day Im gonna be free, lord”, is PERFECT harmony.
Love Queen.seen them twice. Amazing. No auto tune,their vocals were amazing,Freddie was & will always be the ultimate performer. Such a talented group. Sir Brian Harold May, PhD in astrophysics,on tenure for nasa too. Amazing. Freddie had a degree in design,Roger was a trainee dentist & John an electrical engineer. All talented
The greatest frontman of popular music. The combination of stage presence, vocal, instrumental musicality and ability. Oh and he wrote some memorable tunes as well...
Freddie wrote this in honor of Aereths Franklin and it's his favorite song.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Freddie Didnt have only beer there
He had Honey and tea for his voice, to warm up
He had said that He rarely drink on stage, because He thought it was rude for the audience to hear him burping lol
This concert was held on November 24 th 1981,exactly 10 years before He passed away
Thank you
This performance was epic, and I must admit that I teared up a bit because of of the band's complete commitment and musicianship of this song. No one can compare to Freddie and Brian.
There are bands that can play great live and some that can't. Queen was one of the best live bands ever. Super talented group that had honed their skills and stage show to a very high level.
None of the members had vocal training...no auto tune...just raw talent.
Freddie was 35 years old doing this concert. He sounded great for 35. Im not saying 35 is old but by that time your voice starts to sound a lot different then it was when your in your 20s. He also smoke cigs and drank which doesnt help but this man was incredible.
This legend will go beyond Time 👏👏👏😘😎
Speaking of respect for the other members. You should check out Brian May(the guitarist with the hair XD) performing Love Of My Life Live after Freddie past away. It's absolutely beautiful.
Wow 🥰 beautiful Freddie ❤️
I saw Queen on this tour in NYC, I was 14.
Queen and Freddie ruled.
The thing he was drinking was not a beer, but a cup of tea with honey. True talent, btw
Freddie wasn't trained vocally, however he did learn piano at school an that's about it, the rest is all hard work an training himself. The other guys Brian Roger and John were not trained only by themselves. All super talented guys, freddie just amazing all round. Beautiful man very sadly missed 😢
My favorite QUEEN song❤
I was lucky enough to see them live at their last ever UK live performance in Knebworth in 1986. Best show of my life. Love everything about this band. Special people
🤟😁
What a powerful....voice....very...
Freddie was not vocally trained. he trained his own voice because he wanted to sound natural
Everyone of them has written a #1 Queen song..
Just phenomenal!!!! Wish I had seen them in concert.....love your reactions and I didn't see this but other band when there was no auto tune or backing tracks just musicians singing and playing!!!❤
Alright. I have a special request for you people that do reactions. Make us old timers, that grew up on this music, a video describing how you feel about our old music. We really like watching your reactions to things like the lyrics, solos, etc... It makes us smile when you are pleasantly surprised with an old classic. I graduated high school in 76 and all of this was on the radio every day. It's great to see young people discover what we had back in the day. Thanks in advance. Everyone give a thumbs up on this comment if you think this is a good idea.
They asked him what was his favourite instrument to play, his answer was The Audience. Lol
Roger Taylor is a great singer in his own right. He has fronted his own band The Cross for over thirty five years. He has a very high register. You need to listen to early Queen for his high screams and fantastic vocals. Freddie wasn’t vocally trained. None of them are. Freddie had a few piano lessons earlier in his life but is mostly self-taught.
You need to fully understand that this a unique group of musicians are like no other, unique. There has never been, nor will there ever be a group like them ever again. There will never be another artist on all levels like Freddie.
Just the fact that he was a complicated, introverted person. Not the outrageous party animal he portrayed and on stage. The real person was a tortured, insecure, sensitive, but also incredibly loving, generous, kind, and thoughtful about other people. His friends and family adored him. A real riddle of a man, an enigma, a deep soul who was never going to die old. I knew this as a teenager in the seventies that he would never see old age. And this was before AIDS had ever emerged in the world. I just knew he wasn’t meant to grow old. He was too vital. Too brilliant. Too large as life.
Of course the music press here in the UK hated the band, especially Freddie. They like the true definition of bigotry. Hate what they don’t understand. Too different. Can’t be conveniently pigeon-holed or categorised. They despised the group and their music. But the real world didn’t care. They loved them. Not all the time. There were ups and downs. Sun City being the big one, especially to me as a person who has fought against racism all my life, it was disappointing they chose to go there, but they did, and it is something they all regretted later on.
Live Aid was their renaissance! It re-energised them, and the world regained their enthusiasm for their unique music, and they made a lot of great music after that, not all of it! Their appeal grew even more than before and extended to a new generation. It wasn’t to last and I haven’t really embraced the post-Freddie Queen, but in some ways they have become an even greater force in world music, despite the Queen world opinion being split on the band carrying on at all. John didn’t want to and he withdrew totally after 1997. Only to take part in video performing the song Brian wrote about Freddie, ‘ No One But You (Only The Good Die Young)’. Freddie was only 45 years of age when he passed.
Thank you Martin for your insights on this Incredibly gifted Band..and of course Freddie The G.O.A.T.... R.I.P.
Back in the 70’s and 80’s, you couldn’t make people sound better in the studio,like today. All the bands were the real thing.
Oh yes we could. You'd be surprised what we could do back then. Tweak the highs, add a little reverb. Or a lot. No we didn't have Autotune, but there was a LOT we could, and did, do.
It's such a great song! Like your reaction. Queen always the best ever!
This is why i say Freddie was a gift from God
Love Queen and they have so much to offer. Will follow your reactions
In the movie the band told Freddie that he was a legend and his response was "your bloody right I am, we are all legends." That is what they all are. A legend, something that will live on after we are all gone, something that cannot be lived down but at the same time something we can all strive to be by the example they set for us.
Saw this two nights in a row, first night in Toronto, next night Montreal, each show was 2 1/2-3 hours long, they were beasts! Saw them twice earlier, their “News of the world” tour that opened with a robot the roof size of Maple Leaf Gardens into We Will Rock you. Saw them in Birmingham England too. I was a concert rat in my salad days but NOTHING is comparable to a Queen concert! Thanks for taking me down memory lane and giving this performance the respect it deserves!
Great reaction. Check out Love of my life, live in Rio
I love Queen and I miss Freddie so very much. I don't think it is a stretch to say they are the most iconic band of all time. I also miss George Michael who did an amazing version of this song at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert. No one can be Freddie and George wasn't trying to be. He could only be himself paying tribute to a friend and an icon of his childhood. No one expected much from George but he brought the house down with his performance of this song. Queen's guitarist Brian May said that George's performance was the best of the night and that he could hear Freddie's voice when George sang certain notes. Now this is high praise indeed given the artist that were there. Please check it out.
Omg they are awesome live
ALL were/are extremely talented!
Loved watching you watch this! Queen is amazing! Stone Cold Crazy, live at the Rainbow! One Vision, Wembley 1986! Who Wants To Live Forever, Budapest 1986! Love of My Life, Rock in Rio! You are right about Queen's fan base,,,we are legion!
Gives me shivers!
I was fortunate enough to see them on this tour in New Haven with Billy Squire opening for them. FANTASTIC!
They...are...the Best...even in November..2023....good singing..instruments...etc....
Saw them in 1981 in St. Louis.... The opened with Jail House Rock !!! Best concert ever!
Probably 1980..1981 was s.america and these Montreal shows
Roger had a small amount of vocal training when he was a schoolboy in the Truro Cathedral School choir, not very much tho. I love his voice and his solo work is fantastic too.
Queen is the best ever !!!
Queen at Live Aid Wembley Stadium 1985 - undeniably one of the greatest live performances of all time. Their segment (22min) changed the tide of donations received - Check it out fellas, you won't be disappointed. Love your content, don't stop doing what you're doing - your individual personalities are infectious, as a young team covering content from the past you resonate across generations of TH-camrs. Awesome.
What a kind,positive thing to say.Yes to everything you've said.Also,these 3 young men clearly love music and they seem decent,thoughtful,interesting and likeable.Loved their reaction to Al Stewart's 'The Year Of The Cat'❤
You may have already heard: When Freddie opened playing chords on the piano, he was doing a sound check, as did each musician before the set. On top of that degree of professionalism and wanting everything perfect, they had their own sound engineers who traveled with them...even to venues where other groups were playing and there were already contracted sound techs. The difference? They switched the volume limits off so that Queen played louder than any other group.
The results: Wow. Breathtaking. They were each so good that louder was better!
Goosebumps!❤️👌🏼🥰
Love aid performance probably the best of them
Brian May and his father built his guitar together, and as far as I know he still uses it ❤️
I was lucky enough to see them live in 1977 I was 15 yrs old Thin Lizzy was the opening act The Ticket price was $7.OO . Both bands were great live . That was 44 years ago Im 6O now..
you are so lucky man. For this you have to go to church every Sunday and thank God.
The Queen/Lizzy tour! Freddie and Phil were buds, completely opposite but that's Freddie.The GOAT!
$7 😭😭😭😭
LEGEND!!
BACK TO QUEEN!!! Yay!! To solve your dilemma do Milton Keynes live next!! There’s no question about your next move!! My favorite live version!! Please do GET DOWN MAKE LOVE & DRAGON ATTACK from this same concert!! Are you guys planning to go down the Queen rabbit hole???? If you are? I’M ALL IN 😁
My words EXACTLY!
I love get Down make love
Bass player is fantastic with the on point changes.
John Deacon is criminally underrated. No one appreciates Bass players
Saw them in concert August 9, 1980 at Reunion Arena in Dallas, it was a great time, and they will always be at the top, I went to a lot of concerts it was my hobby then. I was amazed at them all, they were great.
God....has blessed him...given him a great gift...of music..
Great reaction 👏🏻👏🏻 Drummer Roger Taylor singing in thatt day "I'm in love with my car" 👏🏻
