This might explain why Vanilla Ice was pretty much a one-hit wonder, because he stole John Deacon's baseline riff. Word to your mother indeed.
Timothy Love those of us who grew up with Queen (and David Bowie) could only viscerally hate Ice Ice Baby. Still makes me mad just thinking about it. Probably why so many of us who grew up on rock N roll had a hard time accepting rap as music.
Nah he just sucked ass at rapping.
With that baseline riff anyone can have a hit.
That and they sued his vanilla beat stealing a** into oblivion and for a long time people forgot who he was 😂 😒 I remember when he can back with a house Reno show everyone was like 😲 damn we forgot about him
@@christinatyree2280 You’re absolutely right. Queen sued the sh!t out of Vanilla Ice and he had to pay them restitution for it. He changed a couple of notes in John’s riff but not enough! It got caught and Vanilla Ice melted!
DAT look on your face wen u realized. Priceless
Priceless. It makes me laugh.😂😂😂
I love his reaction😂😂
Absolutely... but yeah Lamar is right, how can you not credit queen for the chords #copyright impeachment. Shame on th3m !
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That was gold man.
The look on your face at the start of the song was priceless! Even though you'd just read about the controversy, you were shocked when you realized just how blatant dumbass Vanilla Ice's thievery really was. That gave me my biggest & best laugh of the day.
Also, Freddie's "call & response" was usually well into the show, so even though it sounds like a warm-up it was really his way of interacting with the crowd (and including them), which is something he really loved doing. Just one more thing that made the man so special.💙
There's another variation on it at the start of the "Dragon Attack", Montreal '81 video. And the song is great too. Would love to see you react to it! And the studio version is so crisp (& funky) it'll knock your socks off.
He stole one of the greatest basslines in history, written by one of the greatest bassists in history, who was part of the greatest rock band in history, and then tried to claim it was his own invention. Some people are so dumb it makes you wonder how they get through every day.
@@walover165
IKR? And when you lay it out like you just did it's hilarious, and STILL unbelievable that he actually did it! All those factors, plus it had been a hit just a few years before. Did he think nobody had a working memory that went back a few years? It's astounding. Oh, well. At least he gave lots of people a good laugh, both then & now.
May loved doing that, too. Both of them created most of the crowd-based stuff, like May created 'We Will Rock You', with the foot-stomping bit to use the crowd. Also, it's disgraceful, that Ice Ice Baby song. On a related note, Freddie does a great David Bowie here. Queen: the greatest band of all time!
I thought the same thing.. I mean when someone who has never heard the Queen song under pressure but has heard ice ice baby to immediately be able to tell that it is the same exact music really tells you something.. something that Vanilla Ice should have known (My thought is that he probably did but didn't want to have to credit anyone so he thought he could get away with not crediting Queen)
John Deakon is queen's secret weapon 🤘🏻
LIKE *TNT*
John Deacon...no letter k in the name...not busting your balls on this just a simple helping hand.
@@matthewcarlon7122 i do the same when i see freddie spelled with a Y! 👑✊🇬🇧
It was in fact Deaky who started the jam session with those legendary bass notes. They were just hanging out with Bowie in the recording studio when the notes came to Deaky and he grabbed his bass and played them over and over. Then they went for pizza..... and Deaky forgot the notes!! LOL! Luckily Roger remembered them, and when Deaky played them again the rest of the band and Bowie joined him and.... a masterpiece was born!
You forgot the part about how much coke and champagne they consumed, its one of the best stories ever, lol
What the hell was Vanilla Ice thinking? He stole a very prominent bassline from a world famous band's duet with another world famous artist, and not only a sample from the intro, but a refrain from the chorus complete with piano throughout the entire damn song! Did he somehow delude himself into believing that no one would notice? He just has to take a great big ole L on that one. hahahaha
RM Worthington Lots of artists get bad advice and bad deals in music. Sampling in the 80s was a free for all and only in the 90s did artists start suing for credit.
Queen could have done a full cease and desist, but they were quite smart knowing that they were getting free attention from the whole mess.
He didn't even admit it, he said it only sounded simular 🤣
It was originally a B-side song so he probably thought it would go under the radar.
RM Worthington As I recall, he claimed the bass line for Ice Ice Baby was original because he added an additional note which sounded different to the rest so therefore he didn’t steal anything. Now, I’m not really a Vanilla Ice fan, I’ve never paid much attention to that song, but I’m pretty sure that bass line is note for note the same as Queens, so he is a really, really bad liar.
Michael Sidwell wasn’t that the lamest argument he presented? It’s really comical to see the footage of Vanilla trying to cover his ass.
I hated Ice Ice Baby so much when it came out because it was just one giant rip-off of this song. I think I remember years ago Weird Al hosting a special on MTV called "AL TV" where he played “Vanilla Ice's latest hit" and it was just Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin with an occasional "Yeah, boooooy" thrown in. Pretty funny.
jenfine AND... vanilla ice had to be such a douche about the whole thing! His smug attitude made me wanna slap him.
Both songs are good but shame on ice nobody is perfect good for queen and Bowie
mdweaverling I know. It’s unforgivable that Ice made a “career” and millions by stealing well known material and trying to deny it with the lamest argument I’ve ever seen.
I’m so glad the remaining members of Queen and Bowie’s management had Vanilla pay up BIG.
I would to see that video you are talking about!!!! :) I am going to search on the internet to see if I can find it, and will share link here if I do, and maybe The Matthews Fam can have fun commentating on it !!! LOL :) Couldn't find the one you were talking about, but I did find an interesting mash up, that definitively shows how the songs were so similar, if not an exact duplicate in many ways.....interesting listen th-cam.com/video/5-ndKqUNoCI/w-d-xo.html
Inca Moran Haha! The turd in the punchbowl!
Loved your reaction and had to laugh when you first heard the baseline, lol. Yep we all knew he stole it when Ice Ice Baby came out and it is a good song, thanks to John Deacon’s baseline :) Lol, Vanilla Ice was Under Pressure from Queen and David Bowie. Under Pressure is far the better song!
L. , Okay watched your reaction again today, you’re now my all-time favourite reaction video.
His reaction is funny as hell. LMAO😂😂😂
Ice Ice Baby, hardly qualifies as a song.
The look on your face when you heard those chords was life-giving lol Couldn't get enough of it. The cherry on top of another great reaction video :D
His reaction is too funny😂
The studio version with David Bowie is so good, David is another iconic music figure like Queen and you should definitely check his stuff out too
Dr Pepper ABSOLUTELY! This is a must!
The studio is so good it gives me chills and always (never fails) to bring me to glorious tears at the beauty of the middle chorus’ harmonization. It’s the best musical collaboration ever.
Dr Pepper nooo god no DAVID BOWIE MAKES QUEEN SOUND LIKE TRASH
Who is David Bowie??? Is he anything like Ziggy Stardust? I bet he has the power of voodoo
Cody Fanning who do? Oh that’s right you do. Remind me of the babe.
John Deacon played the bass, Roger Taylor played the drums, Brian May played the guitar and Freddie Mercury played the audience lol
I have to apologise because I burst out laughing watching you melt down when Deaky started playing the iconic bass line. (You have to wonder how stupid Vanilla Ice is. All of Deaky's bass lines are great, but Under Pressure and Another One Bites The Dust are particularly iconic and so well-known.) That said, it was so honest and refreshing to see that reaction, and I love your reactions a lot. You do research and go into it with a clear mind. I have suggestions for you! Killer Queen & I'm In Love With My Car Live in Montreal (it's in one video), '39 (studio version) and No-One But You (official video)!
Best reaction ever😂😂
This is (in my opinion) probably one of the hardest Queen songs to preform live. But I mean, Freddie could sing anything right?😉
Linnea Birwin I saw a great live cover by the Foo Fighters, when they called up Roger’s son Felix to play drums and Taylor sang lead. Was good!
Hanny Hawkins
Ooooh, I think I’ve seen a part of that, but I gotta go watch the whole thing!
Linnea Birwin th-cam.com/video/4vofALn_zHo/w-d-xo.html
Love seeing Freddie sing again!! Thank you so much!!!’Love it!!!!!
You’re exactly right! Freddie could sing and perform ANYTHING! He could sing the phone book and make it sound amazing! His genius lives on!!
It sounds good with Bowie too. There is a different sound. You should check it out.
Told you Under Pressure Live at Wembley would be awesome. Your reaction to identifying the baseline theft is priceless lol
Your reaction as soon as John Deacon played the first few cords is priceless!!
His control of the crowd was second to none, he had them in his hands at all times, the master, the genius.........
Your reaction when you first heard that baseline. It was like, "My life is a lie!".
That was cool, man.
Everyone here in the UK were going crazy when Ice Ice Baby first played on the radio in 1990. Even the radio DJ warned us all first before he played it. "I suggest you all sit down before I play this next song!"- Simon Bates. Radio 1 DJ
Sandra Morris I heard Freddie was speechless! His husband Jim said that he was in the middle of his breakfast listening to the radio and he just froze. Jim asked him if there was something wrong with the food and Freddie just said he had to ring up their manager immediately!
@@Fitzroyfallz Freddie must've thought he was hearing things! It's not as if VI tried to disguise it which would make you have to listen to it a few times, it was a blatant copy, chord for chord! What on earth was VI thinking? The most stupidest move of his career, which took away all his music integrity and people boycotted him in UK. Idiot!
Was it not copyrighted? I mean was it legal what vanilla ice did?
@@abfan8333 Yes it was copyrighted by Queen. Copyright law can be a fine line and has to be proved that another artist is using your notes without permission. The minute an artist performs/creates/writes down chords in a certain order it immediately belongs to them but you have to have proof i.e. written score with dates, a recorded performance etc . Anyone can copyright something, just write/draw on a piece of paper and post it to yourself, post date mark is proof.
Some artists have been sued for using as little as 4 notes in a certain order by another artist.
VI just heard it, liked it, didn't even try to hide it, bloody cheek, do your own work!
Sandra Morris same here in Australia, the country was outraged!
Yup, there's no way to to escape that he did steel the bassline.
I love how Freddie had the crowd eating out of his hand with those runs he was doing before the song started and had them repeating them back to him.
Loved your expression when it started, and you realised it was exactly the same as Ice Ice Baby. Yet Vanilla Ice denied it sounded the same. Come on it's a complete copy.
It gives me shivers when he sing '' Why can't we give love that one more chance ..''
commenceenavoirmarre my favorite bit is following yours "Love's such an old fashioned word, but love dares you to....etc"
That part brings tears to my eyes it's so glorious.
True 😢
I remember Vanilla Ice saying that it was different because he put in another note. HAHAHA Queen sued. This was an easy win for Queen.
Really? He was saying that it is different?
If you wanna steal from someone, you must be clever. And Vanilla Ice proved to be the most incompetent thief in the world. Stealing the bass line just as it was from one of the biggest bands of the time.🤣
Come on, it is like being caught in bed with your neighbour's wife, all naked and saying "It is not what it looks like."
Pavla Gebouska it's called sampling mate haha it's all legal. Not stealing as long as permission is granted
@@Scott-qi3wv Sure...as long as permission is granted. Which didn't really happen here, so therefore it is stealing.😊
Pavla Gebouska my mistake sir. That is a ballsy theft then haha!
@@Scott-qi3wv He stole one of the most iconic basslines in history, written and played by one of the greatest bassists in history, who was part of the greatest rock band in history. He is an epic kind of dumb to think no-one would notice.
Too funny😂😂😂
The intro shows his control of his audience.......amazing.
vanilla ice was a god damn snitch man... the hell😂
haha
ice is back „with a brand new invention“ ... I kinda don’t think so dude🤷🏼♀️😂
I'd REALLY love for you to check out official video for Queen "Don't Stop Me Now"
I am so Proud of You!!!!! You actually did not pause the song!!!! You are appreciating their talent more and more and becoming more educated about Queen and Freddie Mercury's vocals!!! YAY!!! Freddie is healthy here, He's also in a healthy relationship, He's happy ❤️❤️. He's so in tune with the audience and he comes alive and interacts and loves performing, phenomenal ❤️❤️❤️
Live attendance was around 72,000 people and the bit Freddie was doing at the beginning was just intended to get the crowd involved. He was a consummate showman and he knew how to magnetize the crowd. Queen's success was no mistake. It was designed and orchestrated by one man. Freddie was a genius.
Awesome vid as always. I'd like to request Queens Fat Bottomed Girls.
You should set aside some time one weekend and watch the full gig it's about 2 hours long, you'll love it. Queen Live 1986 at Wembley.
They used Freddie’s “warm up” from this exact concert at the opening ceremonies for the Olympics when held in London. It was awesome that they included Freddie and had the Olympic crowd sing it back before the Brian May and Roger Taylor came out to do We Will Rock You. Made me cry!!! I miss Freddie!!!☹️
Queen was my very first concert! The Forum in LA...1982.
Trivial info... Bowie is pronounced like BOW in bow tie BOW EE
not like booie or buoy (anchored float) - it's all good
The knife is pronounced like the flotation device as well. I thought of some old folk hero.
Everybody! 5:10 Watch THIS reaction to hearing bass line kick it off!
Thank you for doing this one, I'm so happy! Your face when u heard the first notes was perfect lol! Please can you do One Vision. ♥
Andrea B. - gimme gimme gimme fried chicken! LOL, I loooooove One Vision.
@@timothylove9705 👍😂♥
One vision extended version class
There is a wonderful Under Pressure video inter-cut with Bowie from the Freddie AIDS concert 1992 and Freddie from this Wembley concert 1986.
No dude, he would note to the crowd to hear them sing it back. Always. It's a stadium crowd. It's different to play to 100,000 than 100. We don't have stadium bands any longer that play their instruments and sing. He was just letting everyone there know he was singing to them. Subbed btw.
Listen to the studio version please :)
There's a video out there someone cut together of "Queen and David Bowie Under Pressure" that's SO GOOD, better than the original video IMO. This song is hard to do live without Bowie, no disrespect to Roger, who has an excellent voice. Also, PLEASE learn how to pronounce BOWIE'S name, man! lol
I prefer the song without Bowie.I never liked Bowie that much, Under pressure is my favorite Bowie song and I prefer the version he isn't in.
@@ericvv7649 Well....don't agree with THAT at all, Bowie is a huge part of this song. Love Bowie, met him once, too, he was awesome.
@@catenystrom6506 obviously Bowie had something special for a lot of people. I just never got it. Something in his voice doesn't work for me. But I have the opposite with my brother about Queen. How can you not like Queen? (probably wrong place to ask)
Brian May, the lead guitarist, has his Doctrate in Astro Physics! I SAW THEM LIVE.👑
Sally Taylor Yes and Roger is dentist and Deacky is electroengeneer.
Queen sued the shit out of vanilla ice. He stole it from them. Queen didn't steal shit.
I think that's what he meant. He was just having a bit of a meltdown at the time so it came out "they" instead of "he".
They sued him, but he bought the song after. He can now use ice ice baby with out paying any royalties.
@@saadesigner07 he didn't buy anything. another "mith" from vanilla ice or what's called
I am not surprised Vanilla Spice stole it he is full of himself.
@@saadesigner07 He didn't buy anything. He settled with them, so they took a lump sum payment for what he already sold, their names from then on were on the credits and they got a minimum 66% profits from that point on. Ice only bought his way out of having to give up all the profits, at least Bowie and Queen let him keep something, that was awfully nice of them when they didn't have to.
Brilliant reaction, & yes you were that stunned because as you can tell it was totally obvious & blatant that he stole the bassline from Queen, it was laughable when you heard the song because right away you think of this & Queen yet that head case tried to play it off like his own, he was & is a disgusting NO talent loser!
Please react to I'm Going Slightly Mad by Queen. The MV it's so good, also the lyrics
Vanilla Ice never recovered from denieing stealing it
If you really want to get a scope of exactly how insane Freddie's voice was, find his performance of Barcelona with Montserrat Caballe
To get the full effect of the Queen / David Bowie (pronounced: Bow-eee) collaboration, listen to the studio recording. It'll give you chills because it's so beautifully haunting and you can hear both vocalists. Freddie is the Alto/tenor and Bowie was tenor/bass. Those amazing vocal styles complimented each other perfectly. 👑⚡️
Honestly, this is one of my favorite songs for that very reason.
No autotune
Please react to songs from the tribute concert for Freddie. The crowd is so good at the concert and there were so many great artists. It was like the younger sibling of live aid lol. OH AND RADIO GA GA
8:00 love how the camera crew knew the moments of the song and broadcasted accordingly.....
Not only did he steal it, but it wasn't that much later! He did it while Freddie was incapacitated. Talk about cynical!. Guess he thought nobody would notice.
If I’m driving when this song comes on the radio it makes me accidentally speed. Singing.. peek at odometer.. going 85 mph. For real.
And yes vanilla ice stole that. Google him on the defendant stand try to claim Queen’s Deacon’s bass riff is his. Hell no. He stole it.
Putting aside the baseline, bear in mind that this is a LIVE performance. In front of tens of thousands of people. Who had been there for hours.
And he had them in the palm of his hand.
That's Freddie!
I love that you read about it all first it kills me when people review this and continue to sing ice ice baby all the way through gggggrrrrrrrrr
The most insane video in the world is Vanilla Ice trying to justify what he did.
The intro singing ? Freddie always did that with the crowd for a bit of fun . The bass line ice tea stole from this song was written by John Deacon (The bass player ) they went for a break and when they came back he had forgotten it but Roger Taylor (drums ) remembered it. The song just for a bit of fun was written between queen and David Bowie as he was in the studio and they decided to write a song. Best wishes from Liverpool UK peace.
😄😳😮😲😱🤦🏽♂️🤯🤭😲 your expressions as you heard the first bass line.... classic..😎
I love this version of the song, but it's very well missing David Bowie's voice! R.I.P. Mr. Bowie and Freddie Mercury.
Yes, there were a lot of people at this concert...72,0000.
Robert Van Winkle, better known by his stage name Vanilla Ice, wrote "Ice Ice Baby" in 1983 at the age of 16, basing its lyrics upon his experiences in South Florida.
The lyrics describe a shooting and Van Winkle's rhyming skills.
The chorus of "Ice Ice Baby" originates from the signature chant of the national African American fraternity Alpha Phi Alpha.
Of the song's lyrics, Van Winkle stated in a 2001 interview that "If you released 'Ice Ice Baby' today, it would fit in today's lyrical respect among peers, you know what I'm sayin'?
My lyrics aren't, 'Pump it up, go! Go!' At least I'm sayin' somethin'."
The song's hook samples the bassline of the 1981 song "Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie, who did not receive credit or royalties for the sample.
In a 1990 interview, Van Winkle said the two melodies were slightly different because he had added an additional note on the "and" of the fourth beat, an anacrusis ("pickup") between odd-numbered and subsequent even-numbered iterations of the "Under Pressure" sample.
In later interviews, Van Winkle readily admitted he sampled the song and claimed his 1990 statement was a joke; others, however, suggested he had been serious.
After representatives for Queen and Bowie threatened a copyright infringement suit against him, the matter was settled out of court, with Van Winkle being required to pay financial recompense to the original artists.
Bowie and all members of Queen were also given songwriting credit for the sample.
In December 1990, Van Winkle told British youth music magazine Smash Hits where he came up with the idea of sampling "Under Pressure".
However, Queen and Bowie weren't too happy about having their names associated with Ice, Ice, Baby.
I don't think anyone wants their name associated with Vanilla Ice or Ice Ice Baby!!! 😂😂😂😂
@@peggypenguin7290 So true.
Forty thousand people are eating out of this man's hands. He was really the voice of a generation.
Those were the days of general admission shows at stadiums. Never a problem cuz we were happy to be there and loved the music. All of us. Sweet and innocent times. You are doing a great job, and I look forward to more Queen.
Your reaction when you heard the song OMG!!! Love it :)
I use to tell me family and friends... This is my a Sample.!!!!
Well. Karma did get Vanilla Ice for rippin' off that bass line and he was called Suge Knight. He and some nice guys visited Vanilla's hotel room, kicked out his entourage and hung him over the balcony.....he would stay alive if he added another songwriter of Ice Ice Baby, linked to Knight. And now karma will visite Knight for approximately the next 28 years. Life is a b$tch...
Your eyes and facial expression when you heard the legendary bassline at 5:13 said it all.....MJ may be a smooth criminal but Vanilla Ice was utter shit at it.
Also this is a duet with David Bowie on the album
You need to listen to the Queen song “no-one but you (only the good die young.)” Also, you talk about how lyrical Queen was. If you really want to lyrical check out Pink Floyd.
Queen, a melhor banda de Rock!
I was at that concert.. Singing along... Aye oooh!! Good times
You are correct. It was the way Freddie prepared. Before sound checks, Freddie use to come out and "Ah, Oh, etc." to an empty stadium.
Your face when you realised!!! Welcome to music history. Charisma you could surf off, showmanship, vocal range, storytelling, instant audience rapport.
Getting out of Wembley is just as bad now
If you want to play a relevant, socially conscious song check out “The Last Resort” by the Eagles. Excellent!
Deaky created that & Queen & Bowie were in the studio with him the first time he played it. The best version: the Making Of Under Pressure video & the Bowie & Annie Lennox version from Freddie 's 1992 Memorial Concert. Also listen to George Michael at that concert.
wish I could have seen them in concert to really experience music perfection
The funniest was hearing Vanilla Ice try to prove it was different in court. Hilarious!! I mean ridiculous!!! (Definitely check out the original recording with Bowie. Amazing!)
They had stopped and went to eat and had a few too many drinks. When they got back John couldn’t remember the riff! But thank goodness Roger did and so Under Pressure was created! Freddie does that with the audience to get them involved with him. Best frontman ever!!!
I know they were family forever, but I so feel for Deacon (not sure I spelled that right). I think he felt that passing more than anyone. I so imagine that I could turn back time with the meds we have now and just saved Deacons soul.... That wonderfull man who have never wanted fame is a star in the world.
Vanilla ice thought the new generation wouldn't know about queen under pressure. 😂 Vanilla ice you'll never be anything but an under dog 40 years on queen and Freddie still going on. Where vanilla ice now 😂
I was at this concert. The music made your chest vibrate. And the audience sang our heats out. We all left the gig stunned with no voice left. Love that people still get a buzz from this 30 years later. There is no other band that comes close.
Anyone who likes Freddie Mercury I would suggest searching -voiceplay queen in 5 minutes- there an accapella groupe and they do a bunch of queen sings in 5 minutes and they made the songs fit a story about a guy fighting angels/demons to stay alive
What's happening man. As an old school queen fan who saw them live a few times in the 70s I believe they are not getting the respect they are due as a hard rocking band. The internet is flooded with Queen reactions. But the tame songs, the made for radio songs. To really appreciate Queen you should also listen to (watch) the video "now we're here/liar live at Leeds 1977" I believe people would have an even better appreciation for them if they listened to early Queen also. There's a reason metal bands all liked Queen and consider them an inspiration. Thanks for the reactions I enjoy them. Peace
I know a lot of the comments have touched on this already, but the look on your face when you heard the opening bass riff is just amazing. Queen was amazing, and their music is timeless. I appreciate your reaction video to this all-time great band.
I have to say I love that you research before reacting. I think knowing the back story helps bring that added element that Watchung it cold lacks.
If Adidas came out with a special tie-in Bohemian Rhapsody Freddie Mercury pair of shoes, I would buy the shit out of them.
Thank you for your professional comments and open mindedness of different genres of music!
Queen was one of the few groups of that era that sounded the same Live as they did on Tape or Record. Today with Autotune crap anyone can be a Rock Star regardless of how bad their voice is...
Got out of the stadium in about 20 minutes, wasn't too bad thought we'd be stuck there for ages
Which way did you leave? It took us nearly an hour to get to the tube station. But we were down on the pitch and so close to the front if we'd taken two more steps forward we'd have been on stage doing backing vocals. 😁😁😁😁😁
Awesome reaction as always
Can you please react to watchmojo Top 10 Freddie Mercury moments
Always loved this one. There's a stadium version with David Bowie that's fantastic and worth a listen if you get the chance. Their combined voices really adds something special to it.
That was Freddie way of spending time with his fans. Playing with and they loved every moment of it 😂😁
Vanilla Ice stole it. Queen and David Bowie came up with it first in the late 70s early 80s.
Had this as my ringtone for when my boss called 12 years ago.
Please react to in my defense by Queen
Always makes me me laugh how the people behind vanilla ice thought they were going to get away with that bass line.
Freddie could make the crowd do anything he wanted! He simply raised his hand and they were his!
I rem my eldest daughter and my youngest sister both telling me about this ‘new artist’, meaning Vanilla Ice and his song Ice Ice Baby. When they were playing it for me, I SAID, “That’s not his! That’s Queen’s Under Pressure!! “ I was as mad as hell! And, here they were trying to tell me Vanilla boy had it first. I got even MORE pissed! Can u imagine?! I KNOW my Rock n Roll. Hah! My guys DID win! They TOLD him “No” when he asked if he could “sample” the song and he did it anyway. It was like, “Sample this, asshole!” Lol
Oh good grief. I knew the idiot nicked it and was sued by Queen, I did not know he'd asked to use it and been refused. Did he really think that wasn't going to end in a court case? And how could he then try to use a defence that Queen stole from him, if he'd previously asked permission to use their song?! What an utter moron. I can't even be bothered to hate the thieving bell-end.
He literally (mercury) cast a spell over them with the sign of the horns.
Smh.
Why haven't you reacted to HAMMER TO FALL yet
I think his call & response was to give the band a bit of a rest before an exhausting song.
You should react to "The Way It Is" by Bruce Hornsby and the Range (the official video), which was sampled by Tupac
