In celebration of all the things Queen - the Bohemian Rhapsody biopic premiering, my covers album “Thunderbolt & Lightning”, and just a darn good tune existing, I give you my one-take performance of, yep, “Bohemian Rhapsody.” (Friends, I worked really hard at learning the middle part.) - เพลง
Freddie forgot his password, so he created a new account
BlλckMesa he’s good but at 3:10 it sounds nothing like freddie
@@NoodLe-mo1lf but at 5:11 he sounds just like him
All is good
@@NoodLe-mo1lf there was no difference in that line than the others.
Clever
Everyone talking about his voice but don't ignore his piano skills, this man is brilliant.
Fuck piano he is genius !!!
The piano part isn't that hard, mate. If you think crossing hand is impressive, think twice
@@divisix024 bohemian rhapsody is really hard to play, in my view, it's awesome
@@greysmc9242 What parts of the piano part do you think is especially hard?
@@divisix024 the whole song, I mean, singing perfectly and playing while you sing is hard, that's why I commented not ignore his piano skills
Wow! Been a Queen fan for 50 years. Never did I think it was possible for anyone to perform this in it's entirety; Queen didn't even do that. This guy has exponentially more talent than 99% of major artists today. And to top it all, he seems like such a humble person. Keep 'em coming Marc, love it!

You're a brave man. I've always thought (:lowers voice to a faint whisper:) that Marc's voice is better than Freddie's. (Please don't lynch me, Queen Fans! I love Queen too!)

I've also been a queenfan for 50 years and I just love this because we can sure somehow hear Freddie in this! Unbelievable!
The best cover of Bohemian Rhapsody I've ever seen. You look a lot like Freddy Mercury
I don’t think people understand how hard this song is to cover
those shifting into falsetto and the vibrato part of this song made it a fucking hard to sing. let alone the operatic section.
Pelotudo
@@Bartholo-meow oh yes the opera section fucking brilliant dear!!!
Cristobal Martínez Idiota
Search for Mitoy Yonting he cover this song also
5:11 that was one of the closest things to Freddie i ve ever heard
Holy fuck
Ya, it’s true
Yes! OMG!
Watch the love of my life one.
What the hell😥
I just can't. I was so VERY LUCKY to have seen Freddie preform this live so many years ago. I don't know how I stumbled on to this, but I can't stop crying. It's like he is channeling Freddie. So amazing, thank you Marc, you're incredible.
I wish I was alive when freddy was still alive so I had the chance to see him preform I'm such a huge fan of Queen I have a poster of freddy in my room and wanna get more stuff with Queen on it
I have a question. Having heard Queen in concert, I feel this left depth
sanaol
Adorei muito talentoso ouvi várias várias vezes não me canso de ouvir fantástico.
Gdzie widziałaś koncert Queen?
Not only his vocals but his piano play is just awesome.
I was really moved.
No other person can play this masterpiece all alone while playing the piano!
It's a miracle.
This is no autotune
It’s a gift from Freddie
Guy had been working so hard to get this voice and you say that it's just a gift, ouch
~ sorry for my awful english ~
goossy Perhaps it is both a gift and hard work.
I just want to be positive
@@wave2430 I'm so sorry, i didn't mean anything bad about you! :c

This guy is amazing. I have never heard anyone like this guy sound so much like Freddy.
And also looks kinda like him

This is simply incredible. There was no way to cover this song and do it justice until this dude did it. Piano. Vocals. Perfection.
This is insane!! 🤯🤯 The fact that he can sing almost exactly like Freddie Mercury AND play the keys like that?!? Impressive!
RIP Freddie Mercury. 29 years later and the world still loves you!

Always

5:11 This "Nothing really matters" Creeped me out.
It was very identical!
Right
Dang I got really spooked! It is literally like Freddie in a different body.
Yeah.. it gives me chill..

I was at his concert in germany this year, he sounded exactly the same on stage. Absolutely amazing!!!

I have watched this over and over for years. Leaving comment is the first time.
No one can cover like this. Unbelievable still! So much natural born talent and trimmed as well. Very good control…
I‘ve been to his concert yesterday in Cologne 02.10.23 - One Vision of Queen - ABSOLUTELY. Marc and his voice, simply unbelievable. Still remembering this unforgettable evening. Thanks, Marc 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Freddie would be like
“It’s beautiful darling”
the only comment that make me feel good wtf
Honestly, like he said to not make his music boring. This is not music this is a piece of art.
Reflection :O exactly this is what Freddie would have wanted
Don't think so. .
Yes.
I love the fact that he is so close to Freddie, but not exactly the same. Marc really does this song credit. I could listen to this over and over.
*Task Failed Successfully*
@@sssharefff say what?

This is the best cover version I've ever heard. It's like listening to Freddie himself.
Your the best queen tribute I’ve seen
Literally the only guy who can pull off the iconic "mama"
Or the “Oh, mamma mia, mammia mia” lyric. Every other cover I’ve heard always disappoints me with that part.

The neighbors must be so lucky hearing Freddie's voice next door
I think so
@Black Dog your comment here is the real shit.....
@Black Dog dude he wasn't really trying to sound that much like Freddie as what you are saying. He has the same voice of a Freddie Mercury from his earlier years and yes I agree Freddie has more powerful voice and has larger vocal range due to him being a baritone while Marc Martel was a tenor that is why he can't sound totally the same as freddie
Live: th-cam.com/video/oDGVjuwSizA/w-d-xo.html
@@SM-ch2kn He is another hater lmao, if Marc Martel don't sounds like Freddie then why he is in Queen Extravaganza? ;)
Casually discovered this video. I cannot find the right words to express my deep admiration for your musical talent. I don't recall many performances that sorted my complete emotion like in this case. As an amatorial keyboards player I can't believe how is possible to achieve that total control of the piano, together with an amazing singing. Thank you Marc!
Уважаемый Марк, потрясена вашим исполнением этого великого произведения! Я слушала вникая каждую ноту на фортепьяно и ваш прекрасный голос! Дай вам Бог успехов в творчестве и всех благ❤❤❤
When Freddie Mercury decided to have a 2nd account. Timeless talent, as always
lmao
If bohemian rhapsody (the film) gets nominated for an Oscar, I hope Marc Martel gets invited to perform the song with Queen at the award ceremony. That would be really cool :)
Would actually make sense considering Marc's voice is in the movie, but I don't think Queen would go for it. They would not want to embarrass Lambert.
Nah, if that happens, they'll go with Adam Lambert as the new "official" lead singer of Queen. Even though Lambert himself is very proud, that he sounds nothing like Freddie.
I thought Freddy mercury died though..... He was a good person
Rami could help- he actually sang in the movie
When* (not if)
Saw him live in Atlantic City with his band in One Vision of Queen and the way his voice sounds like Freddie's is absolutely insane, gave me chills. Going to see him again in NY, and every time he comes around. Seriously incredible, highly recommend!
You brought him back to life, THANK YOU!!!
No ones going to talk about the fact he's playing really good the piano? What a concentration
At a certain point it just becomes muscle memory, but this is still mighty impressive
Not trying to detract what he's doing, because it's extremely impressive, but it seems, at least to me, that he learned piano at a later age (not at like 3 or 4 like me or any other good Asian kid), and that he's self-taught. That's just my observation but that makes it more impressive, especially the bridge. The verses are relatively easy on the piano, but I just didn't even bother learning the bridge.
And because he's also stimulating the other instruments too, but in a way that actually works
Well ofc, hes freddie fucking mercury
Its spiritual
It's almost scary how close his voice sounds like Freddie
He even physically resembles him !
@@di7787 he should have played him in Bohemian Rhapsody
@@guybrush1701 he did tho, did he not?
@@iwantlee9510 nope. Rami Malek did. Bummer.
@@iwantlee9510 he did the singing 😀
it doesn't even feel "empty" without bass drums and guitars... Master.
Watching this superb performance was like watching someone try to beat Tetris…zero room for error, and he did it! Excellent!
Its amazing how some singers can play insanely hard piano while singing and sometimes closing their eyes
A eso se le llama tener talento!
NAJAS ARYAL it’s like a keyboard
His voice is closest to FM from everyone on this planet! Period.
Igor, I salute you sir!
Igor Presnyakov , that’s right... I haven’t listened to anyone else sound as the master this close .... is brilliant ... without forgetting the piano playing, which was pretty good as well
@@LZMP60 "Period" as in "end of the statement," "everyone else can stop talking," or even _mic drop._
@@LZMP60 knowing Reddit, they might've also just been talking about pregnancy
Brian May is also surprisingly close to Freddie's voice, IMO.
Excelente!!!!! La mejor versión que escuché en música y voz.
Go to his Queen concert!
Just AMAZING! 😍
I think it's worth pointing out how ballsy it was to take on a song like this which typically has a huge instrumental accompaniment with just a piano and his voice. Truly fantastic.
Hey mark! Big fan
Queen themselves didn't play the middle part of BohRhap live at any of their shows that are posted on TH-cam... they just turned out the lights and cued up the studio version! Marc has broken new musical ground here... I'd be honored if some Queen fans would check out my acoustic piano & vocal covers of PURPLE RAIN by Prince and PRAYING FOR TIME by George Michael on my channel in tribute to 2 of the greatest singer-songwriters in music history who followed the trail that Freddie Mercury blazed. Live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks and RESPECT to the legends.
@@willritter4076 Watched play live in NYC decades ago.
The whole song was preformed on stage n sounded awesome.
Stop dragging life from your TH-cam experience.
Another fucking computer geek living in a basement.
Check panic! At the disco’s version of this!
Totally Not Mark yes!! Beautifully said!
This guy sounds just like Freddie, yet he sounds so original. He doesn't sound like copying, laboring at it, or even trying hard. Vocal versatility at its best.
I 100% agree with your opinion. He’s not even trying to sound like him and you could hear that he’s singing this as his own version not like “hear me sing the way Freddie does.”
100% his voice, his timbre.
Couldn't put it more accurately than you did.
That's because he's not trying to sound like Freddy, that's just how his own voice is, he got gifted with sounding like one of the best singers in history
Still ain't freddie thou
And also at 5:11 he sounded like Freddie for a second man. Truly a recreation of Freddie Mercury ❤
Incredible, the vocals are the most Impressive, and the piano played with it .... Wow !
*Don’t worry Freddie, we’ll make you live forever*
Any way the wind blows doesnt realy matter tome
,,,, to me
Omg. Love that.... FOREVER! ❤
But at the same time, Who Wants to Live Forever? Like if you understand.

@@user-uf3un2on5z One of Queen's songs is called "Who Wants to Live Forever?" So I just thought of the song, that's all
This song is nearly impossible to sing. I don't even have words I'm so impressed. Wow. Freddie would be smiling I think.
mbear1 Freddie would be wet
He is. from the sky
Nearly impossible to sing, no, you can sing it. What's nearly impossible is getting it right, or at least getting close to getting it right.

1000/10
For those who don’t know. He actually did the singing voice over for the movie Bohemian Rhapsody.
Thank you for mentioning this. I’ve looked up this info and it is true. Great choice to use Mark Martel to do the singing voice over, he has an absolutely amazing voice.
He looks a lot more like Freddie Mercury than Rami Malek does. Though Malek did an amazing job, I wonder how Marc would've faired.
@@Weeeeeeeeeee1334 Roger Taylor actually did ask Marc if he could act. Marc told him he’ll leave acting to the actors. :)
Interesting
Some parts of the movie 🎥, other parts was playback
MIND BLOWN!!!!! not many people out there can pull off freddie the way you do!! PLEASE DO MORE QUEEN SONGS!! you are incredible!! 😍😍😍😍
Closed my eyes- can't tell between him and my Freddie. Freddie would be so honoreed!❤❤❤
Man, I'm stunned. Literally. Being a singer and pianist myself, I do know how hard it is to sing this piece AND play piano along. And your voice is definitely very close to Freddie's. I'm amazed!

Mercury is impossible to replicate (especially his vocal range), but that is the closest I've ever heard...Well done!!
There are actually many Vocalists with a wider Range. But Freddie used it perfectly.
Actually Freddie’s vocal range was average for an adult what made his voice sound perfect was the vibration of his vocal chords
@@davidleiva3286 source david besides ur asshole
Muy bueno....pero nunca nunca cómo Freddy..... algo falta!!!
Roger daltrey had a much wider range,but it was Freddie who used it with perfection, But at last as a song(not based on any particular genre) Wish You Were Here is the greatest song of all time,of which your profile picture is all about.....
Freddie would be proud of him. He said that his music is for everybody and you can do everything with it.
He revives Freddies music👏
I am proud of Marc. He honored my legacy in a great way.
Amen
You can do everything with his music, just don't make it boring which Marc didn't

@@randomnickify I see.. Well good luck for tht
@@xmasbunnyscotland5355
He sang Freddie’s every line of the live action. Then, his voice was mixed in with Freddie’s stems, whatever they could recover from the old analogue tapes to make it sound like Freddie is singing. In reality, the cake itself came from Marc’s new recordings, and the frosting on the cake were Freddie’s stems.
The way he sings. How he shapes his mouth while singing is exactly like Freddie's.
Funny thing is that he kind of looks like Freddy too
