That was AMAZING! You guys nailed, "Bohemian Rhapsody".I marched with Ohio University in 2008. As of 2014, NCAA ranked us 4th place. Southern ranked 2nd behind Ohio State. You deserve it. I love Southerns precision style of marching. I also love how they can drill the games halftime score. I love this song, and you guys ROCK! Nice job "Human JukeBox".
I think Queen would be completely satisfied with this arrangement and performance. Southern, good luck. I wish you all productive and exciting year. ~Southern Mississippi alum, SAI-Fall 2001 (KE), and current doctoral candidate in music education at Arizona State University.
This is why I'm a fan of Haymer. The dude knows and loves great music, period, doesn't matter the type or genre. And that taste in music spills over into the band. Excellent stuff.
I'm a 101 alumni and a New Orleans native, and I have to give respect where it's due.I have NEVER heard anyone play this Queen song!!!! Awesome arrangement, tone execution!!!!!
Ok let me be clear I am with no shame I am a JSU Sonic Boom faithful!!!!! I love the BOOM!!! Crab 1994 in the BOOM!! I am glad I have gotten pass all of the talking down about other HBCU bands! When I marched in the band there were a few I really could not wait to go against and this Band was Number one that I love to battle!! I must admit with no shame, Southern absolutely kill this song and it sounded great!!!! I love when we show that we can go in other directions in our HBCU bands not to say I don't love how we do it!!!! Great Job SU see you Oct 25 Jackson,MS.....
You are correct,I marched in the Juke(90-93)...And we stayed waxing the "pop",but it was always respectful..Eventhough some of the "pop" members wanted to fight in 91' when we came up there and tore ya'll a new azzhole...lol...Same story on Oct.25...I'll be in the house that we(SU) own....lol
THANK YOU SIR. NOW IF WE CAN ONLY GET OTHERS TO GIVE CREDIT TO OTHER BANDS, AND STOP WITH ALL THE HATING. IF IT SOUNDS GOOD JUST SAY SO, NO HARM NO FOUL.
My God!!! I literally teared up listening to this song. I'm astonished that someone so young could be capable of composing something so beautiful. This is truly a moment where music has touched my soul. I mean really what other HBCU would play Queen?!? And then play it to perfection?
I'm a World Famed Tiger Alumni and I must say that I def enjoyed this song. My JSU bro I def agree with you. It's good to see other former members of different bands show love to one another. Keep up the good work juke box
This was an awesome and uplifting moment for all HBCU bands! No matter what school you attend you have to show love to SU for showing the versatility of an HBCU band to play something as technical as Bohemian Rhapsody but still have that HBCU sound. Purely amazing!
WOW never heard or even thought a HBCU would play this song and it sounds really good we played this in High school and we were a crop style band we sound really good playing this but this tops any arrangement I have ever heard of this song. GOOD JOB SOUTHERN!!! this made me love the jukebox even more!!!
Had the pleasure of meeting the artist behind this beautiful piece , Mr.Simmons , today @ the MLK parade in Houston. The Jukebox represented well !!!!!
If u a fan of Rock n' Roll, forget the PWI bands, this is your new favorite marching band!!! Plus Brian Simmons looked too much like the late, great Carnell Knighten in that BD uniform!
OMG.. It's just been only a week and this video of The HUMAN JUKEBOX has been seen over 52,000 times already! Stand up The JAGUAR NATION and salute your school's ambassador... #SU4Life
This is awesome! Really nice to see talented young people play music so well together. Great band, great musicians, great band director. Big props to you Southern! Well done!
so this is what they where playing when we played cold hearted! it sounds pretty damn cool from where we where sitting. we kept waiting for them to finish playing, but after a little while, we just started playing! Nice job, southern
Brian Simmons BOY!!!! i dont know what to say youngman, S.U. has a world class wrecking crew!!! N. Haymer, B. Simmons,& K.Taylor let the new Era begin..
This song is a Swiss Army knife it checks all the boxes soft and melodic slow to fast tempo and cranks at the end. What song would you answer back to this?
Im a former Marching Tiger of the World Famous Tiger Marching band 94 and 95.... We all know about the GSU vs Southern rivalry. But rivalry aside. That was on point and just simply awesome. Great performance
Brian Simmons is well on his way to make his mark in Southern University history. You have done well young man...very well. The best to come is on its way!! #SUBandRocks
i like ULL's band but i am ride or die for southern's band , that performance would make a grown man cry , amazing just completely amazing , coming from a Core trumpet player , destined to be part of the Juke,
Yes! I loved playing this as an upperclassmen in high school. Southern did "Bohemian Rhapsody" justice. Glad they didn't just blow it but played it right according to tempo and dynamics. Good job!
Fantastic job! Good sound, Power, originally, diversity, color, arranged to fit band strengths, really, really tough piece to write for a marching band. These types of songs are national classics so you must represent well to present this piece. Great job guys! Old class of 89- Baritone! J. F. K. Hart2Hart
You got to be kidding me, I was just looking for music from SU Ive haven't heard yet, dam this is crazy amazing WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE, THEN THIS OMG, OMG ,there are no limits SU YOU ARE THE GREATEST, Bar none. For anyone out there who think different PROVE ME WRONG or just be real and give them there due. IM HEAR LISTENING
Eric Jones Ikr but these TC fools just don't get they think "as long as we loud, we sound good", Lmao...like I said before they loud and sorry, and you would think that Miguel Bonds being a former juke himself would learned something from the late great Dr. Isaac Greggs, but I guess not smh!!!
Joseph Madison who are you talking to? Don't address me with ignorance or any tomfoolery when you don't know anything about me. I'm not afraid of anything. So don't start or try to confront me or my opinions. Because in a battle of wits you sir are unprepared.
Joseph Madison threatened!?! Because I know the difference between a band that has REAL musicianship (Southern of course) and a band that can't play complicated pieces of music if they had to save they own ass....but yeah SU feels threatened LOL 😂😂😂💛💙
It had some choppy parts but I liked it. Its nice to hear a band play a song like this. I hope they ply more. Classic rock has some killer songs for marching bands.
This is a slammin' arrangement. I don't like the hanging over though. I would love to hear University of Michigan play this. Great job SU!! I've always been a fan. (M4 Member)
Only bandheads and musicians will get how special this truly was.
That was AMAZING! You guys nailed, "Bohemian Rhapsody".I marched with Ohio University in 2008. As of 2014, NCAA ranked us 4th place. Southern ranked 2nd behind Ohio State. You deserve it.

Thanks dude
To those who say all Southern does is play loud with no dynamics. The most diverse band in the world. Good job JUKE!!!
If marching bands could win a Grammy

TheArchieB good to see a rival giving props were it's due. Most rivals wouldn't, no matter the goodness of the talent. I respect a person as yourself.
My God!!! I literally teared up listening to this song. I'm astonished that someone so young could be capable of composing something so beautiful. This is truly a moment where music has touched my soul. I mean really what other HBCU would play Queen?!? And then play it to perfection?

That's a great rendition of one of the most iconic songs ever written.
Nice job!
Yes! Real music. Real chord progressions and dynamics. This is what I love about SU's band: the versatility.
If you are a fan of Queen and know this song, you can appreciate how amazing this version is. #WeareSouthern 💙💛
Excellent arrangement! This band is the best in the world!!!
This is BEAUTIFUL!
I have been wishing for this arrangement for a loooong time, and the execution was electrifying!
Speechless......
That subtle crank to let Lafayette know to chill in the background was perfect!!
Go in SU! This is honestly my favorite old school Rock song and I think they did it justice..
Brian Simmons BOY!!!! i dont know what to say youngman, S.U. has a world class wrecking crew!!! N. Haymer, B. Simmons,& K.Taylor let the new Era begin..
This and the Carolina crown version are the ones in my heart
This song is a Swiss Army knife it checks all the boxes soft and melodic slow to fast tempo and cranks at the end. What song would you answer back to this?
OMG Bohemian Rhapsody ! I love this sing !!!
That's the cleanest I've heard them play in awhile
SU took it to another level. The Future is looking very good.
latroy beeler BEST BAND ON THE PLANET
Im a former Marching Tiger of the World Famous Tiger Marching band 94 and 95.... We all know about the GSU vs Southern rivalry. But rivalry aside. That was on point and just simply awesome. Great performance
I've never played in the band, but I know that had to be a tough arrangement. One of my all time fav. songs. Good job SU.
This was excellent! I like how they took the song and out that Southern spin on it.

The 5 people that disliked this vid were Talladegans who are going to get smashed into dust by this band .
EXACTLY!! Nothing but jealous SU haters and they know damn well Southern played the shit out of that forreal.
I'm not. I don't like this song as a band song IMO
This dude
Y'all lame for this statement
Blessed By God isn't very Christian to spread hate
i like ULL's band but i am ride or die for southern's band , that performance would make a grown man cry , amazing just completely amazing , coming from a Core trumpet player , destined to be part of the Juke,

Yes! I loved playing this as an upperclassmen in high school. Southern did "Bohemian Rhapsody" justice. Glad they didn't just blow it but played it right according to tempo and dynamics. Good job!
It was, I wish ASU had arrangers like that. They think outside the box!
Calvin Bartlett
Right. ASU's arrangers need to either go back to their roots or start thinking outside the box with these new arrangements.
***** agreed
Thanks
2:40 .... That trumpet.... My god....
Fantastic job! Good sound, Power, originally, diversity, color, arranged to fit band strengths, really, really tough piece to write for a marching band.

Amazing not many bands can play this Freddy Mercury is loving this
Titania Owens This is the reason Talledgea will never be anything close to Southern or any other band.
Eric Jones Ikr but these TC fools just don't get they think "as long as we loud, we sound good", Lmao...like I said before they loud and sorry, and you would think that Miguel Bonds being a former juke himself would learned something from the late great Dr. Isaac Greggs, but I guess not smh!!!
Seems like yall feel threatened
Joseph Madison who are you talking to? Don't address me with ignorance or any tomfoolery when you don't know anything about me. I'm not afraid of anything. So don't start or try to confront me or my opinions. Because in a battle of wits you sir are unprepared.
Eric Jones i play french horn for TC. You spoke us up. Dont throw rocks then hide your hand ....sir
Joseph Madison threatened!?! Because I know the difference between a band that has REAL musicianship (Southern of course) and a band that can't play complicated pieces of music if they had to save they own ass....but yeah SU feels threatened LOL 😂😂😂💛💙
