    The actual last recording of Freddie singing is the beautiful, heartbreaking "Mother Love" which, after the first 2 verses, Freddie said he wasn't feeling well and would come back and finish it. He never could. So Brian sings the last verse and you can hear the pain and sorrow in his voice. If you've not done that one, check it out. And, btw, I LOVE the long list of Freddie's isolated vocals-- "Under Pressure" being one where there's no other recording of it that showcases Freddie's tremendous power and range. I've suggested some isolated vocals to other reactors and not one has paid any attention. Their loss, but it's a loss for a lot of viewers, too. So thank you for doing this. Love it! And love your videos, Ken.

    Loved your analysis, I think you are absolutely spot on, on everything.
    This song always makes me so emotional.. You can tell he's basically saying, yeah I'm dying and it's becoming more visible, but the show must go on. The fact he could still sing like this so close to the end is insane.
    What gets me most is though, it's obvious music was in his soul. Been so sick, most artists would stop singing, but not Freddie and continued until the very end. I remember reading an article with Brian may saying a lot of his last songs he had to have long breaks and lay on the floor because of how sick he was, truly is heart breaking.

They're all so great but Freddie is just so easy to fall in love with. His energy is magical. And now, any time I watch or hear anything related to the time leading up to his passing, I get teared up, and I'm not one to cry easily! This was no different. His strength and passion, even at the end of his life, is nothing short of amazing. RIP legend

    Do more of the Innuendo/Miracle album stuff, his voice and singing was always spectacular, but in the last few years, after quiting tour and such, his voice got rest, and his technique just got even better, due to also his sickness, he probably didnt just shout every song his lungs out, he probably did sing it more lighter on purpose due to his sickness and also to keep his voice in shape the more he can.

    It’s amazing how well he sang even as sick as he was - iconic artists seem to pull out the reserves and find a way to still perform - part of what makes him truly great . I recently watched a video of Elvis performing “Unchained Melody “ very close to his death - he could barely speak but when he got to the piano somehow he sang great and nailed the song - soon after he died . The greats always seem to find a way to nail the performance regardless of what is happening in their lives - they go to a place where the music is all that matters

Most of all, by the love for music that you show going deep in every detail: lyrics, vocals, instrumental parts, production... the whole package.

    Freddie had a lot of friends , even very good friends as band members but unfortunately he was lonely as a soul , yes such a great artist , feeling all feelings so deep maybe that made him so creative , so unique 💖

    You take my breath away really highlights Freddie's vocal ability (studio version is a total eargasm, the live at Hyde Park is also special)

    Wonderful vocal. I remember an interview with producer, David Richards, who said Freddie was singing so effortlessly during these sessions having stopped touring and all of the excess. He said it was like recording/watching a choir boy.

    Once again, Ken, thank you for another insightful video. This song has always sent shivers down my spine and it represents a time when the band were really focused on recording as much material with Freddie as possible. He told them that he needed something to do more than ever during those last moments. Also, your choice of t-shirts haven't gone unnoticed lately! This one seems particularly appropriate as it shows the hope and promise of eternal life through Jesus defeating and rising above the pain and imperfection of our world below. Art is very subjective though, but that's what I see.

    I heard in a documentary that he wasn't able to stand anymore the last times he was recording. So he did it while sitting. As a result, he probably lost some volume. It was a first take after he drank a lot of vodka. Unbelievable when you consider how sick he was already.

    This video was sincerely amazing, i just loved your deep analysis of the lyrics. Now, thinking about what you said in "my soul is painted" part, the music video kinda shows that, Freddie happily shaking people's hands in a white suit.
    I'd he happy if you did Who Wants To Live Forever too.

I'm sure Freddie would take your praise as high affirmation from one great singer to another. Thanks for doing what you do. ☺

    Some performances are so inspirational that it's hard to find any words for it and you have to sit in silence for a good while afterwards to absorb its powerful effect.
