These days, Bri does this song in the middle of the stage by himself, without Freddie, and usually can't get through it without tears. Both Brian AND the audience.
I've seen video of that, and it just kills me. when the giant video or hologram of Freddie joining in begins, and it appears as Freddie and Brian reaching out to each other, oh my!
This performance is swoon-worthy. Absolute perfection from them both. Whats really special is this songs long & significant place within Queen’s story & it also shows how well Brian & Freddie complimented each other. This is very different than the studio version. As Freddie once said, “we’ve turned this into a duet, bc that’s the way we like it.”
Love Of My Life is a song that Freddie Mercury wrote to Mary Austin, the woman who mattered most and had the biggest impact in his life. Freddie Mercury left Mary Austin half of his estate, which included 50% of his future earnings and properties. This included a 28-room mansion in west London that Austin still lives in today. After the deaths of Mercury's parents in 2003 and 2016, Austin's stake in his estate increased to 75% she really was the love of his life. Peace out.
I love this version, recorded in Montreal 1981. Normally the crowds would sing along and Freddie would let them sings large parts of it. But for some reason this crowd were not responding as much as he expected, maybe they were being polite. The result was that Freddie sang much more of it - and it is beautiful
Rio '85 or Wembley '86 is better as far as audience participation is concerned. It really adds some magic. Regardless, Freddie always sings it beautifully
This concert was being recorded and the director would not allow the crowd to be loud or react because it would “interfere”. Since Queen is all about crowd participation, this pissed Freddie off. They were recording over 2 nights and wanted continuity. Freddie did everything possible to disrupt this … if you watch any of the other performances from this Montreal concert, you will notice that sometimes Freddie has his clothes on, sometimes his shirt is off, sometimes he’s in little short shorts, sometimes he’s barefoot. 😂
Composed by Freddie Mercury and dedicated to his then-girlfriend Mary Austin, the song is track nine on their fourth album A Night at the Opera. Even after they broke up they still loved each other.and remained friends .MaryAustin inherited Freddies cats and most of his estate.
There are several versions of this song, and all of them are exquisite. The studio version is layered vocal harmonies all fine by Freddie alone. This Live version in Montreal Freddie sings by himself with the audience in the background Live at Wembley in 1986 Freddie sings and the audience participates much more. Live at Rio the Audience sings the majority of the time and Freddie pitches in here and there.
So nice to see your wife. Love your channel. I bet your wife has a beautiful smile. We need to see 😅😅. Very pretty. Oh i just saw the picture with her smile 😊. You are a lovely guy trying to honor your wife ❤
First heard it when I saw "Highlander". Don't know if it was written specifically for the movie or it came before, but it fits the movie's theme perfectly. Awesome song/awesome performance.
Love that you and your lovely wife reacted to this great song ….. I really like that you appreciate how great Freddie and the whole band were…..please continue to react to Queen ….. because there is so much more. Next time have your wife react with you to “One Year of Love”. ….An absolutely beautiful love song wrote by bass player John Deacon for the movie Highlander. I prefer the lyric version to this song…..because the videos can sometimes be distracting from the lyrics and Freddie’s vocals are amazing in this song. (No live version of this song). Thank you so much …..I look forward to your next reaction. Thank you.
Perfect song for you and Mrs. BP to react to. Wifey is so calm and such a deep thinker like you...I'm super-emotional when it comes to music - this song always gives me the "onions"... Brian May is the musician doing the intro. Such hauntingly beautiful lyrics...
HEY ROBERT, HI WIFEY!!! 😊SO THAT'S ( BRIAN MAY ) ROBERT, HIS GREAT UNIQUE GUITAR PLAYER! 👍YOU NEED TO DO THE OTHER HIT FROM ( A NIGHT AT THE OPERA ) BESIDES BOHEMIAN WHICH WAS : YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND 💯 40!
If inclined to take a slight detour down the QUEEN rabbit hole, may I suggest checking out WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER, but the version w/Adam Lambert. In recent years Adam has joined forces with the remaining members of QUEEN (Brian May & Roger Taylor) when on tour. One performance in particular is a must see: LIVE AT THE ISLE OF WIGHT FESTIVAL 2016. No one could ever replace Freddie, but Adam does the music justice. Check it out..
A song you react with your wife in should be a great love song called "Find out About Love" by the Canadian music group "Bachman -Turner-Overdrive" from their album called "Head On ".
Listen to the studio version of this song; Queen's trademark precision vocal harmonies are a big part of it. And how did you not tell her about the amazing Brian May, playing the guitar in this video?! Queen is not just Freddie Mercury with a backup band!
G'day mate You should play this for missus / wifey John Farnham and Oliver newton John singing Please dont asked me live version If this doesn't get wifey emotional nothing will 😮😊 As we say she'd be like a dead fish 😢 You haven't done a ballet from him yet Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺👍
Great song but I would have chosen the Montreal version of Somebody to love. My favorite version of Love of my life is Rio where the crowd sings it back to Freddie.
You should tell your lovely lady "that Freddie Mercury was gay even though it did have a girlfriend what is family would have disown Freddie if they knew"
There are better live versions of this song where the crowd engage more, one is in Rio I think where they sing virtually the whole song or Wembley 86 (I was there). At the start of this version you hear Freddie say 'they don't know it" because he expected the crowd to start singing. Cool reaction though.. thank you, and I second the recommendation for You Take my Breath Away, Hyde Park 76, incredible.
I love all of Queen's videos but (as a Highlander fan) I must admit my favourite is Who Wants To Live Forever th-cam.com/video/_Jtpf8N5IDE/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUfcXVlZW4gd2hvIHdhbnRzIHRvIGxpdmUgZm9yZXZlcg%3D%3D It is just so haunting. The song (written by Brian May) came out the year before Freddie was diagnosed with HIV but they said he was showing symptoms for years before the official tests so it really hits.
This is not the best performance of this song in my opinion. The production company filming this told the audience to sit still and not sing so as to not ruin their film. The band found out about this and were livid. You can hear Freddie say to Brian “they don’t know it” and Brian say “that’s alright” to calm Freddie. Please watch the Wembley 1986 performance and the Rock in Rio performance where 300,000 to 500,000 non English speaking fans sing almost the whole song to Freddie and Brian in perfect English. They both get overcome by emotion because they weren’t even sure the audience understood what they were singing.
I was SO HOPING you would show your wife this!! I thought she would love it with you. But apparently your not romantic hahaha. From your reactions sometimes I feel like your such an emotional person, but your wife said no 😂😂so
Come on man. Be more romantic with your lovely wife. I was like you i wasnt that much with my wife and I truly regret it to this day because I lost her 43 years ago at the age of 25. We had only been married for 6 years. She passed away 3 weeks after the birth of our son due to complications from the cesarean. As the saying goes .....YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT TILL IT'S GONE.
Freddie wrote this song for his fiancé, Mary.

I think she would love -
You're my best friend.
The studio version is exquisite. Freddie sings all the harmonies and Brian plays harp!
This whole concert is incredible!
It hearing the audience singing along with him that really makes it. Brian with the 12 string acoustic... magical.

Yep - fantastic - Freddie was a musical "anarchist" ... lol...
Freddie was the full package.
God bless FREDDIE, we miss you.

A great performance from a beautiful love song. 🎶🎶❤️❤️❤️👍

Had goosebumps watching this live in 81. We all were singing along.

And Wembley 2nd 😊
I agree. Live in Rio, Live of my life is fantastic!!
Also, live on wembley 1981
Composed by Freddie Mercury and dedicated to his then-girlfriend Mary Austin, the song is track nine on their fourth album A Night at the Opera. Even after they broke up they still loved each other.and remained friends .MaryAustin inherited Freddies cats and most of his estate.

The guitar was wonderful as was the song, BP. The Wifey is also a great part of the review, bring us more!
The wife and I are celebrating our 38th anniversary today. Perfect song!
Another great one for you and your wife is.... your my best friend. One of my favs. Btw, great looking couple!
The Wimbley performance of this was so much better in my opinion.
You might as well enlighten the wife to - You Take My Breath Away (live at hyde park 1976) or studio version. Both amazing!. she will shed a tear!
Yesss.... please do the live 1976 version at Hyde Park with just Freddie and the piano..... Amazingly beautiful. And she definitely will shed a tear!
I'm here in 2024 love Queen and Freddie
"They don't know it"
"It's all right"
For my wife and I it's Queen's You're my Best Friend.
Your wife is beautiful. Especially when she smiles. God bless you and your channels that they will be successful.
My favorite reaction channel and my favorite band.

The best and iconic performance of this song was in Rock in Rio.

Perfect song for you and Mrs. BP to react to. Wifey is so calm and such a deep thinker like you...I'm super-emotional when it comes to music - this song always gives me the "onions"...
Brian May is the musician doing the intro. Such hauntingly beautiful lyrics...

Queen...always amazing. ❤
Pegasus react to Queen's Christmas song "Thank God It's Christmas" Freddie's voice and song are amazing.
A song you react with your wife in should be a great love song called "Find out About Love" by the Canadian music group "Bachman -Turner-Overdrive" from their album called "Head On ".
well, it‘s indeed a matter of taste what a great love song is. love of my life of queen is one for sure. is it the most famous song of queen? no.
Howdy Wife and black! ! Hugs❤😊
beautiful
Listen to the studio version of this song; Queen's trademark precision vocal harmonies are a big part of it. And how did you not tell her about the amazing Brian May, playing the guitar in this video?! Queen is not just Freddie Mercury with a backup band!
Love of my life live in Rio is one to watch
BP, I have a song for you to dedicate to Mrs. BP on Valentine's Day ... do "I Love You" by the Climax Blues Band. You'll both love it!
Should do under pressure live @ Wembley no David but Freddie & Roger do an amazing job.
Check out Marc Martell version on the piano.
... You Take my Breath Away...
Listen/react.... it's another wonderful Queen song that doesn't seem to get a lot of attention
You should have listened to live at Wembley 1986.
The studio version of this is good. It’s definitely worth a listen
Pegasus a little romance goes a long way dude 😘
Should show her the one from Brazil.
Reaction Marc Martel - love of my life (queen cover) pliss 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
G'day mate
You should play this for missus / wifey
John Farnham and Oliver newton John singing
Please dont asked me live version
If this doesn't get wifey emotional nothing will 😮😊
As we say she'd be like a dead fish 😢
You haven't done a ballet from him yet
Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺👍
React to “Somebody To Love” by Queen… and ask Wifey if she’s ever seen the version in the movie Ella Enchanted.
Then the 1 in Milton Keynes then studio. 1 song sang in 3 completely different ways. All amazing love Freddie 😊
Well there you go I understood Brian May wrote this in memorial for his childhood kitten that died.
Great song but I would have chosen the Montreal version of Somebody to love. My favorite version of Love of my life is Rio where the crowd sings it back to Freddie.
or Wembley...
❤to my baby Nicholas forever 25❤😢
Freddy's the greatest rock singer of all time. Easy
Freddie was with Mary for 7 years!!!
Awesome
Next reaction to your wife. I recommend you dedicate the song when you love a woman by Journey
BP, what up, man!
You two should react to Queen’s Teo Torriatte together, a lovely song! Thank you for all the Queen reactions!
Under pressure is next 😂
Your wife looks a lot like Mercury's girlfriend, whom this song was written for.
As much as I adore Queen I have a song request for you... Working Man by Rita McNeil you won't regret hearing this
Brian May on the 12-string!
calls his wife bro like our kids call us bro !
You need to hear Freddie and Michael Jackson singe together
You should tell your lovely lady "that Freddie Mercury was gay even though it did have a girlfriend what is family would have disown Freddie if they knew"
There are better live versions of this song where the crowd engage more, one is in Rio I think where they sing virtually the whole song or Wembley 86 (I was there).

Cool reaction though.. thank you, and I second the recommendation for You Take my Breath Away, Hyde Park 76, incredible.
Why dont i know this song he has a great voice
I love all of Queen's videos but (as a Highlander fan) I must admit my favourite is Who Wants To Live Forever

Need more Pat Benatar. All Fired Up. PLEASE
You missed it bro. Hold her hand man. Maybe next time right! 😂
You should react to One Vision by Queen
please do Queen to much love will kill you one of my favorites song by them please do Brad Paisley Then with your wife
Show her the english video bicycle race by them
This is not the best performance of this song in my opinion. The production company filming this told the audience to sit still and not sing so as to not ruin their film. The band found out about this and were livid. You can hear Freddie say to Brian “they don’t know it” and Brian say “that’s alright” to calm Freddie. Please watch the Wembley 1986 performance and the Rock in Rio performance where 300,000 to 500,000 non English speaking fans sing almost the whole song to Freddie and Brian in perfect English. They both get overcome by emotion because they weren’t even sure the audience understood what they were singing.
I don’t get why they’d think this was good for wifey, as u 2 seem tight
I was SO HOPING you would show your wife this!! I thought she would love it with you. But apparently your not romantic hahaha. From your reactions sometimes I feel like your such an emotional person, but your wife said no 😂😂so
Not a love song people .. listen to the lyrics.
WHITE UNICORN YUR WIFE'S NAME OR YOU-TUBE HANDLE
I think I was one of those that suggested it..... Shows what I know.... Anyway, Nice TRY!!
Does she not really like music?
Come on man. Be more romantic with your lovely wife. I was like you i wasnt that much with my wife and I truly regret it to this day because I lost her 43 years ago at the age of 25. We had only been married for 6 years. She passed away 3 weeks after the birth of our son due to complications from the cesarean. As the saying goes .....YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT TILL IT'S GONE.
Deffo not the first time you two heard this legendary music cap
Something not happening you both. I don’t understand
