Would you ever react to rammstein?
@Shane Walz
Yeah I’m sure at some point we’d be down to check it out! 😁
Another great vid review. Have just sent a link via fb message. Hope you like the link
That’s just a hint of how great the Live at Wembley 1986 concert is. Freddie sings incredibly. I hope you guys watch the entire concert. Freddie wrote that love song.
That's just what I was going to say - each time you've done a live video you've looked mesmorised! You know what this means? You have to do more!
I was at this concert - i was very young and it was the first concert I ever went to. All these years later, I can still remember singing along to this song. It was a pretty electrifying moment.
Whitestripe71 lucky!
That’s awesome!! ❤️
Whitestripe71 That’s fabulous!!!!!!
I was there too - fun wasn't it?
I was there too. Was unreal. And being in the crowd for Radio Gaga was just an unbelievable experience.
Alex, your reaction to the crowd singing nearly made me cry. A lot of crowds sing along at concerts today, but when Queen hit the scene that wasn't the norm. By 1986, when this performance occurred, Freddie Mercury was the master of crowds. Just the wave of his hand and the audience did his bidding. This really is a beautiful song. Originally written for piano, they transposed it to guitar for live performances. Brian May mentioned once that it was very difficult to do because of the way Freddie wrote music. Great job Andy and Alex. Your reactions were priceless.
Well crowds don't often sing so much of the song, and this song never charted in the UK, so you would not think that the audience could sing it note for note.
There's an anecdote that somebody asked Freddie which instrument he was playing. He reportedly replied "The audience". Not sure it's true but I can imagine that happening.
Missy Frye o
What I find even more impressive is how, when they'd play a country where English isn't the mother tongue (and this was nowhere near as small a world in those days), the crowd would pick it right up as if it were at Wembley or MSG. See in particular the one from Rock in Rio '85 --spine-tingling stuff. What a band...
@@NebulizerChi i think the first time that happened was in with this song in South America.. the crowd just carried the whole song.. they knew it word for word. I'm sure that there were songs that they did when they performed in Japan in the early days that had the same effect with the audience.
He wrote that song for Mary. Like its Mary singing to Freddie about how could you hurt me. It's my tear jerker. Beautiful song
I know I'm a year late lol but Freddie said in an interview that he didn't write this song for anyone- it was just something he made up. However either John Reid or Peter Freestone (can't remember which lol) said that Freddie told him he wrote it for his boyfriend at the time, David Minns.
The only major relationship he ever had with a lady. And she was his best friend and godfather to her kids. Must have been one hell of a decent guy for Mary to do that.
@@christhornycroft3686 He had another girlfriend for a year-long relationship before he met Mary.
@@angelal1607 But Mary made him godfather to her kids. They were really close throughout his life.
Mary was Freddies one and only true love
You may notice Freddie’s amazing voice cracking a couple of times. That’s because in this concert, his vocal chords were heavily damaged for constant touring, similar situation as his Live Aid concert. What he was able to accomplish during adversity was out of this world.
Aside from his throat/vocal cord issues at the time, I have no doubt his girlfriend Mary was on his mind, every time FM sang this song... which brought up emotions in him that made his voice just a tad 'unstable' - without fail.
She was the love of his life, after all...
Also, forgot to say - didn’t want to edit my last post - that Freddie had and still has that ability to mesmerise people just as he did with Alex. Male, female, straight or gay, young or old - it makes no difference. He was a very special human being.
Well said im 100% straight but i loved Freddy , i wish her were still with us as i miss him every day .
You really need to watch You Take My Breath Away live at Hyde Park. It's very beautiful and intimate, just Freddie on the piano.
Jeepster Peepster or at earls court he sang it differently there. In my opinion the best version of the song.
Jeepster Peepster yeah and my melancholy blues
Agreed
AGREED!
Yes please!!!
Brian May’s guitar work mixed with Freddie’s vocals is the perfect mix of subtle and sublime.
just one voice and one 12 string acoustic but such a beautiful and powerful song, this is great but i prefer the bowl version (i still love you, and dont you forget it) only because i saw them 3 days before at ingliston 👑✊🇬🇧
"When I grow old, I will be at your side to remind you, that I still love you"
He never got to fulfill that :'-( RIP Freddie ♡
The Rio version is so great because the crowd sings almost the entire song as Freddie orchestrates. The crowd is massive, and English is not their native language. It's pretty incredible.
I agree, the Rock in Rio 85 version is the best one of this song.
Disagree the Wembley crowd being English and his home crowd make this the best ever .Unless your British you dont understand the connection he had with his home fans .
Freddie points to the audience and says, "I still love you" and I instantly start sobbing. 😭 I loved your facial expressions!!!
I want you both to rewatch this video in 10 years and record your reactions. I'm pretty sure by then you will understand how truly devastating this song is.
You guys look hypnotize and memorized
@SirIntegrity
Always happens with Queen live!
*Mesmerized
The Wembley crowd was good but if you heard this from São Paulo 81 or Rio 1985 (250,000 people as featured in the movie) Freddie hardly sings anything. The audience is deafening.
The original is from A night at the opera and is beautiful....along with a harp
I agree Mark. The Rio 1985 crowd participation is amazing. Guys - You need to check that one out to compare.
Yes, guys. You are.missing out on a real goose bump moment if you miss the Rio concert version of this
It's Hard to imagine that this song was immediately after prophet song on the album, but the way it flowed from one song to the next, you have to hear both to believe it
Agreed. Rock in Rio version of this song was jaw dropping. Sung almost exclusively by the crowd.
It boggles my mind that neither Freddie nor Brian lost their composure hearing the Rio crowd sing the words. I know I sure do.
BTW, Brian May, the guitarist just incidentally is an astrophysicist
Chucky Lad , Professor May to you and i 😉
Yes, Dr. May, has been consulted by NASA
Leonie Actually, it’s probably Sir since he’s been knighted. Not a bad collection of titles.
And if I'm not remembering wrong, he has an asteroid or comet or something named after him, since he discovered it.
This makes me cry. What a legend. Miss you forever..
There Will never be another One like Freddie....he had the crowds eating out of his Hands .....plus. ....Queenfans knew what they were expected to do.....Love of my Life means....we Sing ....we Will rock you ...we clap ....
I agree of Brian Mays Guitar play being Just incredibly beautyful
We reciprocate what they make us feel. If you feel them, show them! We're not expected to do anything. They give their love, and we love them back! The worthiness and loyalty between artist and fan are one. Hence loving, adoring and supporting fans, = hard work, new music... along with what brought us to our love for them in the beginning, brings us ever closer. A true, loyal QUEEN fan, means you're in it for life. If you do not feel this in your hearts, you're wasting your time. Check out a new shit radio station that plays new nonsense bullshit that you will forget in a couple months and move on the next new bullshit, and so on and so on. MTV first came to life on Sept.1, 1981, with The Buggles, Video Killed the Radio Star. When QUEEN stepped on that stage in Wembley, they killed all the nonbelievers perceptions of them. QUEEN are the true, real life, radio, video compilation of ALL TIME! Forever, and Ever, AMEN.
Best ever
You should do A Winter's Tale, It's not much of a rock song but it is beautiful and you feel like Freddie is saying something to you.
Fun fact: It's the last song Freddie wrote and one of the last he sung
A winter’s Tale is a masterpiece. The last song Freddie wrote, it’s a work of sublime courage, beauty and love. It’s like a Bruegel painting in it’s lovingly detailed observation of the beauty in the small, quotidian details of life going on around a dying man.
@@hannyhawkins7804 so true, no one like Freddie
I witnessed this at Leeds when I saw Queen live, Bryan May played the guitar and Freddie controlled the audience. Something I will never ever forget, magical.
brian*
He was one of a kind. Wonderful voice, plays instruments, and has great stage presence. This is such a pretty and acoustic song. Again, thanks guys for taking me back to high school, and growing up and listening to this fabulous band. Kudos
Some of us grew up listening to QUEEN. The cool ones still do! God Bless Her Majesty QUEEN!
I've seen this concert (Wembley '86) 5 times, and this still gets me! If you ever get a chance to see the Rock'nRoll medley they do during this concert, you will experience Queen and the audience having the most fun ever! Freddie is Ethereal. 😀❤️❤️
I absolutely loved when both of your mouths dropped open, as Freddie started directing the crowd to sing. He was pure magic. This was the song he wrote for Mary Austen, who he said was the "Love of his Life " Along with bulk of his estate, he left her the royalties to this song since it was for her. Keep up the good work and have a great week! Cheers !!
@Stephanie Turnage
Thank you! Was a brilliant show! ❤️😁
not just the royalties to this songs but every song he had written before Innuendo when the group decided to share the writing credits. There was rumors that the other band members were going to take legal action against her to get the royalties for other popular songs written by Mercury, but that was rumors.
The one and only Freddie Mercury and Queen. God, what a voice.
Alex's FACE when the crowd started singing was priceless. Freddie honestly could have told the crowd to go jump off a cliff and they would have thrown themselves off it with gladness. Anyway something else from this concert that's loads of fun is their little fun medley that they did after this, with all of them effectively goofing off. IIRC it's (You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care/Hello Mary Lou/Tutti Frutti/Gimme Some Lovin' and they are literally just mucking around having a great time, it makes me so happy.
"Alex's FACE when the crowd started singing was priceless." IKR? I enjoy watching the guys; now I wonder what my expression is like when I first hear/see something new online...lol.
I love you two boys - I’ll adopt you as my TH-cam grandsons!! Great reaction as always:) Dragon Attack Live at Milton Keynes 1982 is the best version via Queen Official. Freddie doesn’t forget his words like he did in Montreal!! And the “Go pretty boy” to Roger is hilarious. Please❤️
Annie Mars I’m laying claim on them as my two grandsons too!!!!🤣
Jodi Wood We’ll share!
Saw a few reactions to Dragon Attack Live. You guys GOTTA do back-to-back reactions for Montreal and Milton Keynes live or pick one. Never has there been better rock - guitar.bass line.drums.vocals. Freddie in tight white jeans gyrating everywhere Seriously LET’S DO IT💪🏼
@@jodiwood5311 I;ll take Dragon Attack anywhere, anytime !!! Hot, hot, hot 🐉🤘🤘🐉
Anita Smith Every time I think “that’s my favorite”🤣 ANOTHER one becomes my favorite! Aren’t they all favorites??!!!
Love of my life is always a special one to see in the live shows :) Brian and Roger use this video now when they play shows so the crowd can still sing along with Freddie while Brian plays live ❤ beautiful!
You are right, it is so beautiful to be there and watch that video of Freddie with Brian playing guitar right there.
Yes and in one video I watched Brian was in tears. All these years later. I would go to there concert now just to see the hologram of Freddie singing .
This is how the song was adapted for live performances, purely acoustic and inviting audience participation. The original studio version has piano, electric guitar, harmonies and... harp! You'll love it when you hear it. Same lyrics, same melody but whole different experience.
A little background on this song. Originally from A Night At The Opera. The song is like a classical piece which Freddie gets to show off his rubato style of playing, and of course his vocal and writing chops. The songs is originally in C major and resolving in F major. They started to perform this song live in 1977 on the News Of The World tour. Since the LP version is so complex, they decided that a simple intimate version of the song was warranted, performed in A major. The audience participation happened organically, especially in Europe. When they released Live Killers from the 1979 Euro tour, this song is on the album and during the second verse, Freddie stops singing and Brian stops playing and the audience takes over. This was not planned at all. They released the live version as a single and was a semi hit in Europe, in South America, it was massive. It stayed on the Argentinian charts for an entire year. When Queen toured SA in Fed/March of 1981, and they performed this song, Freddie did not have to sing one lyric. The audience is in unison, singing in perfect English, considering the locals language was Spanish or Portuguese. You should look up vids from 1981 SA tour. And yes the audio from the movie is from the Rock In Rio gigs from 1985, which illustrate my point. Glad you guys liked it and your critique was on point. Keep up the good work and all the best.
What he said!
Brilliant commentary. Thank you
In their current live shows Brian sings this alone and the bring Freddie out on the screen to sing the last few lines with him. It’s incredible to see
This is my favorite performance of this song. But the Rio one is amazing too. ❤❤❤
I only have 2 words - Simply Stunning!!!
such a beautiful ballad. No one could have written or performed a song like that except QUEEN . The original is far more orchestrated / including a Harp . I cant help but to get Misty when I hear this song...I truly believe Freddie really did Love his audiences.. unlike many artists who treat the audience as a mere stepladder to their success. Freddie honored them with every note he sang, and never forgot who put him where he was !
I love this beautiful song that Freddie wrote for Mary - the love of his life
Andy and Alex, have you ever heard thousands of people know the words and notes of a song and sing in unison so nicely that the singer himself did not need to even sing? Some mega-stars need to hear their own voices, but Freddie's love and confidence allowed each and every audience member enjoy themselves. In this rendition, he let the crowd be the Superstars. Brian's guitar was of course so special. Thanks for sharing!
The live version is amazing at Wembley, but the studio version is one of the most beautiful songs you will ever hear especially how the piano seems to be chasing the guitar in the solo.
Dale Q...Agreed. I personally feel the same ‘bout “You Take My Breath Away!” The studio version of that just blows me away....especially whenever I listen to it with headphones on!
Loved the song. Queen for ever
"How can someone be SO Freddie???"
The power of Freddie is undying.
Great song. Always used by Freddie and Brian as a sing-along. Beautiful.
Every live version of Love of my life is so full of emotions ❤️
Every time I watch this concert I start crying during this song. So emotional, so beautiful. Queen owns the world. Freddie's voice is the most gorgeous voice I've ever heard. Everybody fell under a spell listening to them.
A better show version of this song is indeed the Rock in Rio they showed in the movie. The crowd in that show is INSANE; it sang the song almost completely (and Freddie obviously let them xD) and was way louder than the Wembley one, and that's saying something.
Anyway, your faces while watching the video were priceless ahahahah not that I can blame you, every time I watch one of Queen live performance I become awestruck (and sad inside because I'm never going to see one), also Freddie's control over people always leaves me out of words... He's not just in control of the situation, he's also in control of the people, which is not something every performer can do as well as he did, in my opinion.
🇧🇷💛💚 Brazil, Rock In Rio, 1985. 🙌👍👏👏👏
Freddie being a true music maestro☀️🎤 Brian strumming our 💓 strings on guitar 🎸
Freddie was mesmerizing to the point you couldn’t take your eyes off of him ♥️🎸🎤 He had such a commanding presence you could not deny ♥️ One of a kind 💖 RIP
Pure magic. The song is so tender and beautiful, but this arrangement (which is Brian's, done especially for lives) is even better to me than the original. The audience participation is so entrancing.
Such a beautiful song ❤️
There's footage from one of the concerts with adam lambert. Brian begins performing this song then that very footage of freddie appears on this big screen.
I got choked up watching it
Brian speaks Japanese to the fans.
Queen + Adam Lambert - Love Of My Life (Live at Summer Sonic 2014)

Love how emotional the audience is when Freddie appears.
Of course, this video always brings tears.
This is probably my favorite of your reaction videos to date. The look on both your faces was epic, almost looked like you were both on the verge of tears. This clip of Freddie specifically touches the soul. Looking forward to seeing more.
@Heidi Settimo
Thank you! It was pulling our heart strings for sure! ❤️❤️
I was at that concert. Best memory I have. Magical.
This is my favorite reaction so far. Alex's reaction was so perfect!!!!!! I LOVE IT!
"He was teaching... " "that make me feeling something..." That is PERFECT! That is the point, right? You guys are great. Peace and love...
Only Freddie could write a song with a few, simple words and a few notes, no frills, mostly in one octave, and sing it so beautifully. No Bob Dylan, not even Elvis, nobody will ever make you feel so emotionally involved with such a simple, yet powerful song. You can not help but just being transfixed at him in awe.
This was a quiter moment of this concert.
I would strongly recommend for you guys to watch/react to the entire Wembley 86 Concert (it is on TH-cam) and load up your reaction in parts (it is 1hr50mins).
Matt Fischer I agree! I’ve mentioned they watch the entire concert a couple times. It was spectacular
YES!!! This concert is great. So rocking and so much fun! Even John is smiling a lot!
A 10+ all day long!! One of the greatest love songs ever written!! Fredfie wrote it for Mary, and it was a song the truly transcended physical love. Freddie in interviews often referred to Mary as his common-law wife. He said they didn't need to be married (that was for other people) because he and Mary believed in each other. And it was all true...Mary stayed with him until the end, and Freddie left her his incredible mansion and most of his fortune. That is true love!
Actually he's quoted as saying he didn't write it for anyone but also some say he wrote it for his first boyfriend David Minns.
@@annieanonymous611 Wow! That's really interesting! I've heard, in documentaries, from living band members that he did write it for Mary. I've also read over a dozen biographies on Freddie and Queen, and several mention he wrote it for Mary. I would love and truly appreciate the truth. If you could send me the titles of books, documentaries, interviews etc. I would love to learn more about this. I have heard Freddie several times explain songs, and then contradict himself by saying the lyrics didn't mean anything. I have also heard Freddie get upset always having to try to explain his lyrics by saying that you wouldn't ask a poet about his poetry. But from all I've read and seen in the early years when he wrote this song, the song was for Mary. So please, please, send me all the documentation you have, because I am very interested in getting to the truth of this. Thanks so much!!
@@lollinelson5549 lol I feel there is sarcasm here
@@annieanonymous611 I'm sorry. Rereading it, I can see how you might get that impression. I apologize. I am sincere in my quest to know more about Freddie and Queen. If you have information I don't have, I am really interested in it. In no way did I mean to offend you. I love the discussions we get to have in the comments. I grew up with Queen, but information was difficult to get in the '70s and even '80s. I have learned a lot, and am hoping to learn from you!
@@lollinelson5549-A long time ago I heard an interview with Brian May where he says that the song is actually written from Mary's point of view. As if she were singing it to him. If you listen to it in that manner the song actually makes a lot more sense.
Glad you did this one, oh Freddie how beautiful you are the love his fans have for him & roger, Brian & John will never die 😍
Your faces were completely spellbound. Love it! Goosebumps.
As a 50 year old who loves great music I think it is very cool and refreshing to see a couple of younger guys who get it. Real music with amazing lyrics, no tricks, no lip-sync. Good job!
I get chills every time I hear this one live!
You BOTH actually got it! So glad that your review echoes my own! Forever Freddie!
These guys had no reaction at all! I'm not not sure what anyone else was watching but it must have been different to me
I was at the edge of my seat mesmerized... Thanks for sharing this beautiful Freddy and Brian experience.. Love you guys, you are very passionate😎💜
If you watch the video of this song in Sao Paolo, Brazil in 81, they were surprised of how the crowd knew the song and they literally let the crowd sing to them. For Queen that was the proof of how big they were in every corner in the planet and how much the fans loved them.
No one could control a crowd like Freddie. He was the master of performance. I'm so, so happy this younger generation (hey, I'm only 50 but you guys are younger than my kids lol) is finding the great band that is Queen. I've watched many of your first reaction videos and it always makes me emotional to watch. Thank you so much for bringing a new appreciation for Freddie and Queen.
The last time I saw a mouth gaping open (like yours both did) it had a hook in it!
Beautiful song. Heavenly vocal. Amazing guitar. Audience in the palm of his hand, the crowd singing along. Name one person alive now who can recreate such a moment. How rewarding must it be to someone to enthrall thousands! The world really needs more music and less madness.
As Brian said, inscribed on his statue...lover of life, singer of songs.
Not forgetting Brian on acoustic guitar.
In the lap of the gods revisited live at the Hammersmith odeon you're welcome
That is my favorite! ❤️ I've been suggesting it for a looong time 😂 That whole concert is just out of this world....💫
Yes... so much yes!!!
Nobody watches the version at the Rainbow 1974 which I assure you it's the best version ever.
marriusmal it’s really hard to pick & decide-I just watch & cry-so much love😻
@@frantepper206 You're right. The choice is subjective and all performances are great :)
Wonderful Queen song. Freddie, had such a huge stage presence he is greatly missed.
I love how you guys appeared to be completely transfixed on the screen! One of my favorite renditions of this song, there are times when Freddie has sang it better, but the emotion carries this one. It is also one of Queen's last live performances so that adds extra weight to the song. The live version is very different from the studio version, but the studio version also holds its own charm. It is also amazing to watch when Brian May performs this song live these days, at the end they use a clip from this concert and Freddie sings the last part, perhaps you guys should watch that. It is heart wrenching to see how people are still crying their eyes out to this day, when Freddie appears to sing that last part. Freddie was a very special performer, singer and frontman.
It's not really one of their last performances, actually. They were kinda in the middle of their tour here.
@@sannaolsson9106 That is why I said one of their last, I didn't mean it was exactly their last performance. Their last performance was obviously at Knebworth, and Freddie sang It's In Every One Of Us with Cliff Richards, that was really his last performance.
OMG i love your faces when you guys are listening Queen .... precious :)
This is one of the songs that is better with the studio version - various instruments are easier to hear including a harp that Freddie learned to play for this song. There's also a recent version of this song done solo by Brian May with a screen of Freddie singing at the very end.
SonshineLady Freddie didn’t play harp, Brian did. Slowly recording each phrase one at a time... still, the studio version is lovely.
@@imweakfordeaky Actually, I recently heard an interview with Freddie (sound only) and he was asked if it was hard to learn to play the harp. Freddie said what he played was relatively simple but the biggest pain was if he was playing it and someone opened the door; the difference in room temperature made the strings go out of tune and it had to be re-tuned. Sounds like Freddie played it to me; not doubting that Brian can play the harp as well.
SonshineLady...Perhaps Freddie started out playing the harp but got too frustrated with what you’ve just explained regarding the whole temperature throwing it out of tune. I understood it was Bri that played the harp on the studio version. I’d like to hear that interview of Freddie saying he’d played the harp. Do you have the link?
Yes I always find myself forgetting for a moment the studio track is piano rather than guitar cos Brian transferred it so well and it is just so stripped back yet meaningful and full of emotion!
I love how entranced you both were with this performance too!
Seen Brian playing this live twice. Just him on stage in 2005 and 2008 and it was awesome singing along to it!
I was there as a 16 year old dudes! great day in sunny north London
I envy you..
Paul McInerney u
You're the man
There are only a few performers that can capture the hearts, soul, attention, and control, of an entire audience. Freddie Mercury was the best in doing that. Excellent comments from both of you! Another great reaction video. Thank you both!
Guys, do check out the version from Rock in Rio. Quarter of a million people singing leaving Freddie speechless :) On the album version, it is coming straight off after Prophets Song, they are connected in a way. Sounds different, but really good.
You should watch Hammer To Fall live from Wembley 1986 but make sure it's the one from the 12th of July, it is the best version of this song you will ever witness.
You should also listen to Flash and The Hero from the Flash Gordon sound track album. The Hero is a very short song but it is a hidden gem.
Great reaction as always, Alex and Andy. You guys should check out Love of My Life at Montreal 1981. You don’t need to make a reaction video, just watch it in your spare time. The girls reaction at the very end of the song literally sums up everyone’s reaction to any Queen performance ever. Whoever has watched that performance will know what I mean lol.
Thank you for this guys, one of my absolute favourite renditions of this song, so glad you finally got to this one! Now you see the true genius and talent that is Freddie and Brian! They are a unique pairing aren't they?
Always fun to watch your Queen first takes - and inspiring to see a new generation appreciating what is probably one of the most impactful bands to ever perform live. Queen is unmatched - and perhaps now the masses will know why so many of us cringed when autotune first came on the scene.
If you get a chance (and keeping with a different twist on Queen’s music, check out ‘Under Pressure’ as performed live by Ben Burnley (Breaking Benjamin) and David Draiman (Disturbed) - the TH-cam video was posted a couple of years ago. A surprise duet during one of BB’s tours - the two bands went on to tour together later in the year.
It’s always great to see current artists paying homage to Queen!
Somebody to Love, Live at the Bowl
Freddie was the master. Queen is one of kind. Never be anyone like them. Love when you react to Queen. If you haven't done so, you should react to Save Me live in Montreal
Queen's live performances are simply Legendary!
Seeing people of your age appreciating this music gives me hope for the future
Thank you guys! Watching your reaction to the one and only Freddie Mercury power was great. I've seen it soo many times, sung all over the world, even now with Brian May on stage with his acoustic guitar, and brief film footage of Freddie at the end of the song...does that same jaw dropping, heart gripping thing to me. Thank you. A 10 agreed!
In terms of audience participation - you guys really need to react to Bohemian Rhapsody being sung by the crowd at a Green Day concert in Hyde Park, London in 2017, I'll say that again 2017!! . It seriously gives you chills.
Love your reactions! I was a teen in the 70's and saw many of these bands live. Good to know that their music is appreciated by some of your generation. Rock on guys! I'll be watching.
I find myself really looking forward to your Wednesday Queen reaction videos. This song will get you EVERY time. The live guitar versions are so much better than the piano studio version.
My favorite Queen song! He wrote it for his life long friend Mary.
If I recall correctly, the Rio show is the first time Freddie became aware that he could get the audience to sing the song without him. If you can find the clip, the joy on his face is electric.
@@bbbfst I was referring to the '81 performance. I'm almost certain I've seen a clip of that.
@@LeChaunce I believe the '81 performance was in San Paulo. In the movie, they changed up the timing of Freddie and Mary ending their engagement right after he's showing her the performance on the TV ... because what's shown there is the 1985 Rio show -- and where it's several hundred thousand singing along. But I think you're right on the 1981 show being available.
@@bbbfst They changed the timing of more than that! XD
@@LeChaunce Ha. Very true. Here's the link to the '81 show: th-cam.com/video/czFFXSin3-w/w-d-xo.html
Love of my Life is one of the most beautiful song written by them along with Bohemian Rhapsody from their 1975 Album A Night at the Opera Those True Die hard fans at Wembley 1986 knew every word of it apart from Freddie's Charishma and you guys have reacted to Live Aid 1985 so you shouldn't be surprised as why the crowd reacted that way it's Queen's Magic
finally u are realizing its the live shows that u need to watch. Agree with jeepster abt take my breath away at hyde park. Dragon Attack live in montreal (anything from montreal is great) wembley 86: under pressure, now im here, who wants tolive forever. Rock in Rio great stuff there too.
c c Dragon Attack at live at Milton Keynes 1982 is even better than Montreal:) It’s the Queen Official version too
Thx for letting me know! I will check it out! Have uvheard the song nevermore? Just discovered..love. :)
@@cc-uw4pe LOVE.....just LOVE "Nevermore". Wish it was so much longer:(
You guys should watch yourselves watching this video. Andy didn’t move and Alex when you moved you were shaking your head in amazement, like how the hell? I think you fell short on this rating, I believe 11 is the appropriate score. Even when Freddie’s voice cracked it was pure magic. Enjoy watching your Queen reviews. You guys appreciate the finest there was. Thank you
I noticed the same thing. Andy didn't move for 5 full minutes.
That was such a beautiful performance
The way you are so amazed is good to see young people can be surprised by a singer.
Andy & Alex put "My Melancholy Blues" & "Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon" on your lists 👍🏼👍🏼
Love watching a new generation experience all of this great music. The look on your faces is priceless in this one. Freddie was the master of playing with his audience. It's not 'real' but you guys should check out Marc Martel's version of Love of My Life. It's crazy scary how much he sounds like Freddie and his version is really something.
And what about the audience singing along!!
Freddy RULES!
Have you done Barcelona? If not you should. Its very emotive listening to him singing with one of the world's major Opera Singers, sadly deceased too, Montserrat Caballe.
Apparently he was so nervous, but their performance is spectacular. Not that I expected anything less from either of them!
Definitely one the best songs, especially live. I wonder, have you seen the music video for I want to break free yet?
Definitely have to do who wants to live forever in 86 at that same concert it’s absolutely amazing, love the reactions guys keep them coming
Thanks for another great reaction Andy and Alex.
This is such a beautiful song.
Freddie and Brian : two masters at work .
Hits you deep in the guts, dont it? Pure voice and sound. So much meaning in the words
I remember seeing them in Birmingham England and he didn't have to sing a word and the crowd gave the biggest cheer of the night... it was incredible.
❤❤God I miss Freddie’s voice and strut. Such an amazing band. All four of them. This song written for Mary Austin the love of Freddie’s life -his best friend. She’s the only person who knows where Freddie’s ashes were placed. He said no one would ever understand him like she did. He left her the bulk of his fortune and his house which she still lives in.
I love the reactions on your faces! When y'all are just sitting around you not doing much of anything, you really should check out the whole Wembley concert 1986. Amazing! I enjoy this channel immensely!
Hey guys. This song became a duet with every audience. Including Japan, Brazil and every other non English speaking country. They knew every single word. Thus the reference in the movie. It’s still performed the same way today at the live shows. With Brian and.... Freddie. And it’s beautiful. The studio version is very different.
Please react to You Take My Breath Away album version next though live from Hyde Park is very good too What can I say.It's breathtaking.
That's the one!
