"Fat Bottomed Girls" grabs you by the short 'n' curlies right from that raucous acapella get-go. Sir Mix-a-Lot you say? Nah - THIS will always be the greatest song ever written about big butts. Come-on my brothers you can't deny.
If you look on TH-cam you’ll find a mashup of this with Sweet Home Alabama, so you’re not the only one that got a similar vibe. I can hear the connection now that you point it out, although I’d never pieced them together previously.
Hello Day One - Let’s get you some more subs!! There are tons of Queenies out there so keep doing those Queen reactions. This song was written by Brian May kinda with Freddie in mind cuz he liked men & women with “junk in the trunk”.🍑 Gotta read the lyrics!! Anyway, you should follow up with the live version at Milton Keynes 1982 for a couple reasons - Freddie’s on Fire & he literally pole dances with the scaffolding on stage! It’s an amazing sight to behold! Then you should do the music video of BICYCLE RACE 🚴♀️🚴🏻♂️ which is the companion song to FBG when Freddie sings “Get on your bikes & ride”. Welcome to QUEENDOM!
Your reference to Sweet Home Alabama is not off. There is a mash up video on YT of those 2 songs and its awesome how well they sync up. There is also a mash up of The Bee Gees song Stayin Alive & AC/DC's song Back In Black. It's called Stayin In Black. Check them out they're both great.
I'm not a Queen expert but I've heard that Freddie sang the harmonies on studio versions of the songs. Have you reacted to Bohemian Rhapsody? The official video is probably Queen's most popular on youtube.
Agree. When I was a teen, I was interested in different music. As an adult, I have no idea what my younger-self was thinking, Freddie and Queen are incredible.
here's a little tidbit for people, Freddy . in an interview once , when asked if he were an animal , and was to describe himself said, quote " I consider myself a peacock " , because I am colorful and flamboyant on stage. " end quote
The harmonies are a Queen trademark. There are a few songs that Freddie did all of the harmonies himself by layering multiple tracks. The opening sequence of Bohemian Rhapsody is done by Freddie alone. The video shows all of the members lip syncing.
"Sweet Home Alabama" and "Fat Bottomed Girs" are played in exactly the same key, and also the same tempo. Besides that the songs are differend. But I understand the vibe you feel
Angela - I am originally from Ohio and I remember the year Queen, The Rolling Stones, ELO and Aerosmith came in the World Series Of Rock. And I could only see one of them. For me, this was an easy choice. The Rolling Stones. They were by far the best of these groups. I like Queen but, not still one of my favorites. I don't care for this song.
I think you might get into some Led Zeppelin, Angela. "Whole Lotta Love", "How Many More Times", "Since I've Been Loving You", "When The Levee Breaks" and "In My Time Of Dying". Unless you've already heard them of course.
I once worked with a Brother that just loved big legged fat bottom women. I mean "LOVED" them! I asked him what the attraction was and he flashed a big toothy smile and said, "Bruh, I likes me somethin I can leans into."
No ambiguity in this song -- If you want to fully understand "Sweet Home Alabama" you should also listen to "Southern Man" by Neil Young - which is mentioned in Skynard's song - which is kind of a racist anthem - even though it's got a good rockin beat, and one of the most iconic riffs in rock music. Been watching some of your videos. I can't decide if you're more beautiful when you laugh, or when you cry. Your emotions show your inner beauty but, "I'd run a mile just to see you smile ..." - John Prine ("Aw Heck")
PLEASE check out The Eye by Brandi Carlile! A modern masterpiece of harmony that I have zero doubt you’d LOVE. 👍👍. Keep ’em coming. Your reactions are fresh air. 😁
You should react to Bohemian Rhapsody We Will Rock You We Are The Champions Another One Bites The Dust Headlong These Are The Days Of Our Lives and No One But You

Sir Mix-a-Lot you say?
Nah - THIS will always be the greatest song ever written about big butts.
Come-on my brothers you can't deny.
A reporter once asked Freddy what instrument he played. He answered "The audience, darling!"
He is absolutely correct!!
No lie, no exaggeration
Always a fun song.. and very much ahead of its time!! And Yes Freddie is the ultimate Showman!!!
Freddie was one of the strongest magnets life offered. You are pulled towards his heart. And then the whole harmonies wrap your soul.
Queens harmonies are the bomb!

Freddie was ONE of a KIND. Absolute freaking beast of a front man.

Those harmonies are multi-track vocals: they record the voice tens, even a hundred times and layer it. You'll notice it with the Carpenters, too.

Roger Taylor the drummer is a huge part of the harmonies.
@@seven2464 he stopped doing ultra high stuff after 1980 iirc, smoking fucked his voice lol
I never liked Queen as a teen but as an adult I finally can listen and appreciate the beautiful music they produced
Agree. When I was a teen, I was interested in different music. As an adult, I have no idea what my younger-self was thinking, Freddie and Queen are incredible.
Thanks for the mention. Freddie Mercury in full glam rock/hard rock mode.
Watch their video "i want to break free" you will love it! The video version is important to watch freddie in the beginning.
Yw
Freddie was the ultimate entertainer and had a stage presence few people have or will ever have 🔥

Hadn't thought of it but now that you mention it.

Freddie Mercury best show man ever.
❤❤❤❤

You are so right. Yes Freddie was amazing. However, their harmonies were awesome too and underrated.

In Memory of Elizabeth Reed.. Allman Brothers Band (instrumental)
Great reaction! Try Queen - Love of my Life!!! :D
I think he's the Greatest Showman of all time.
1:56… Totally in The Zone!!!!
What’s funny is that he (Freddie) was only bombast on stage. Privately he was generally very shy and soft spoken
To see another side of Freddy, listen to Freddy Mercury and Montserrat Caballe singing Barcelona, live at La Nit.
Funny how you brought up Sweet Home Alabama, I've always thought this song was their take on a southern rock tune.
Drummer for Queen is Roger Taylor.
They sound like Queen .
They were all so amazing at their trades. Dunno if u know but Brian may is a rocket scientist
He's very theatrical!

All girls fall immediately for him!
His attitude is that of regal

Do some Bob Dylan
Best front man ever... Change my mind
Freddie was the queen of Queen ;)
I Want It All

Luv me sum FBG's!!
Song great but you didn't comment on his lyrics once. A little controversial but is much a part of the song as the music
Other than a similar tempo and catchy chorus, doesn’t remind me of Sweet Home Alabama 😳
Angels among us by Alabama

Hell naw !
I'll subscribe when you stop interrupting a great tune. Talk less listen move love.
