@@laurallama73no one's cancelling the song. It's usual right wing culture war people trying to whip up an angry mob over a non story to blame "the woke".
Yesssss. Love it. And women with only little bit sense of humor love it to. Always, when I'm sad, tired or something, just listen this And everything is beter. And yes. I'm a girl (woman) 😊
Wasn't it on the original greatest hits album? I'm probably wrong, because I'm thinking back about thirty years, and I don't quite trust my memory, going that far back.
It’s not coming out of their Greatest Hits, that was a fake culture wars story. There is a new streaming service starting that’s aimed at toddlers and pre-teens. Any slightly risky song from any band is being kept off the service, including this. That’s all that’s happening
Agreed. This song can never be cancelled! When I was in high school, our bus driver used to play the radio on the way to, and home, from school. Each day, in one direction, he’d play WDVE, the rock station, and on the other direction he’d play WAMO, the urban station. Queen was one of the few bands you’d hear played on both. And I’ll tell you this; anytime Fat Bottomed Girls came on, as many girls as dudes knew the lyrics and sang along. It’s too perfect a song. That opening harmony, the drums and bass kickin’ it, and Freddie, of course, being Freddie. ‘Heap big woman, you made a bad boy out of me.’ So yeah, we’d get home and get on our bikes and ride! Loved your reaction! Made my day! 😎
Radicals look for anything to demonize. It is our way today just as claiming Cancel was the other side... and low and behold our side has plenty now too. Look what was done to BARBIE.... yet it did not work cause of who still does barbies and their mothers... They said it made females dominant and males de-masculine.... not to mention nations who ban being gay said it was portraying men as gay.... HERE WE HAVE A GAY MALE.. who today would probably NOT be glorified by half of America who many now are saying SURE GLORIFY HIM. Queen was great.... yet can you imagine the QUEEN VIDEO of - "I WANT TO BREAK FREE" All are in DRAG.... GUESS WHAT... SOME WOULD CRY CANCEL and a WHO SIDE OF A PARTY WOULD JOIN IN. This song was in question of - "Fat Bottom Girls" was left of a new Greatest Hits album. YET FOR POLITICAL GAIN IT IS BEING TARGETED. THE SAD STATE OF POLITICS AND ITS TOXIC STATE of EXTREMISM even for a President to get in to Suspend the Constitution to Fire 10s of thousands of Fed workers and HIRE ONLY THOSE OF HIS PARTY... This is all kinds of things George Washington WARNED US in his FAREWELL Address to Congress... that new members have read among other things.
Yes, Brian May did write it, and I read he wrote it FOR Freddie. I also agree that I don't think Freddie realized how talented he was. How could he think he wasn't a very good piano player?
Freddy actually knew exactly how good he was. Watch some of the videos here that had Freddy in them. I literally spent all day yesterday watching every one I could find. Yep, he knew. Lol
As others have said I lived through this when it 1st came out and the "Fat bottom girls " wore this song like a badge. They owned it and played it up! Everybody loved the song!
As a teenager, I didn't take offense to this song. I laughed and partied to this! As a mother (old enough to be grandmother) I sing this as a "badge of honor cause I rock!! 🥳😂😂😂
Always pleases me when youngsters figure out that we older folk had GREAT MUSIC not just for our generation, but so great it will hand over to future generations.
I may not be Latino but im a typical Scottish woman who like nearly all of the other typical Scottish women have a fat bottom and i for one am happy that i am in the fat bottom category love your channel you've been reacting to music i grew up with so thank you ❤
Irish and love my fat bottom.. child bearing hips they used to be called back in '78 yep had my 1st born then.. This always get the audience going when the We will Rock you Theatre show is touring.. seen it 3 times now, if they don't play it will just have to start the chant my self lol
I went to High School in the 70’s and no girls were triggered by this song. It rocked and we loved it because it celebrated our curves! We viewed the world as Champions (pun intended) not victims.
Writer Freddie Mercury? I'm pretty sure Sir Brian wrote this? Your reactions are so much fun to watch and it's exciting to see that you are approaching 100k!
Absolutely love Queen! Freddie was the best. Loved your reaction to the video. I'm a new subscriber to your channel. Caught your reaction video to Dan Vasc singing Amazing Grace. Loved your heart felt reaction and your honest opinion. And the fact that open to hearing new thing's.
This song is absolutely incredible! The live version at Milton Keynes is so much better as is Queen live. There is nothing better than one of their live performances. They are a people's band, never really scored high with the critics till later in their career. Others worthy of a listen are "The Prophet's Song", "It's Late" "Dead On Time" I could go on forever. Thanks for the air play!
I'm only 27, so if it hadn't been for my parents, I would never have known what a great band Queen is. When I was dating my wife, I was slowly introducing her to rock and roll, but I was admittedly hesitant to play her this song because she was 19 at this point in our relationship. One night, I was at her place getting coffee and she wanted to put in some music. I had been spoon feeding her Queen songs over the previous 2 weeks, and as a result she wanted to listen to their greatest hits. She knew that I had the entire Platinum Collection in my truck and told me to go and get it. She put in the first CD, and we started rocking out. Then, Fat Bottomed Girls played. I fast forwarded the CD, but she immediately countered and rewinded to Track 4. After the song was over, she asked me why I had skipped the song. I told her that I didn't want her to think that her superbly shaped bottom was the only reason why I loved her. She told me that I was silly for worrying about that and that she would have had no problems if that were the case, and she knew that it wasn't beforehand. That was 8 years ago. She's 27 now, and to this day, she still loves shaking the house with this absolute banger. It's one of her favorite songs. So, that being said, Hollywood Records, as a happily married man of 3 years, I can confirm that the female youth is not opposed to Fat Bottomed Girls, and it should very well be kept on the Greatest Hits roster.
What a treat! This is such a FUN song which a lot of people think was written by Freddie ..... but NO.....written by the supposedly "quiet", studious, perfectionist guitarist, BRIAN MAY!!! LOL!!! He said that he wrote it for Freddie who seemed to like those with a bit "extra" in certain areas ...haha! Queen wrote "Bicycle Race", the other side of the single. That's why Freddie sings, "Get on your bicycles and ride" during Fat Bottomed Girls. Both songs are great! If you get a chance, watch Queen bring this song to the stage at Milton Keynes (The Bowl), in 1982...you'll see Freddie give a new meaning to pole dancing...hilarious! I love seeing Queen having a great time. The song is great, the whole band is on point, and Freddie's vocals are EXACTLY what this song needs. Thanks for this one, Sebs...really enjoyed your reaction.
Say! Watch this song performed at Milton Keynes! Freddie gets going- he went crazy- really great! Great reaction- AGAIN!! Down the rabbit hole honey- 200 songs and more!
I'm getting old. Back in the day this was my go to song to play on the jukebox about 15 minutes before the bar was about to close. Excellent conversation starter.
This song is the best 🤣 as a “band geek” in my college marching band, this was one of our favs to play! The cheerleaders on the other hand got an attitude when it was announced they were dancing to Fat Bottom Girls😂 Brian wrote this gem because Freddie liked his partners to have an ample back side. Great song!! Can’t help but sing along! Freddie passed my senior year in college… miss the genius of Freddie and original Queen
It's one of my favourite Queen songs!! The guitar and the vocals are just perfect, and I'll be listening to this song until I am 6 feet under!! I love curvaceous women ❤️
song written by guitarist Brian May. When released, the B side was Bicycle Race. which is alluded at the end of Fat Bottom Girls when Freddie shouts "get on your bikes and ride"
There will be another transcendent talent one day. It may be far off, but it will come. We will likely not be around to enjoy it. That’s why they call this kind of talent “generational.”
As one of the fat bottomed girls in the world, I’m more offended they wanna cancel this than by the song. There’s soooo many worse songs out there! (WAP comes to mind immediately)
I love this song it's a classic from 1978. Please don't cancel this song, everytime I hear this it reminds me of Queen and buts a smile on my face and tapping my feet.
Queen - possibly the best music band ever (and that is open to a wonderful beer fueled discussion in a pub), this song is proper Rock and Roll. All the ingredients, nothing missing, cooked to perfection. Sure, they created one or two songs that were forgettable but they enjoyed autonomy and were allowed to be experimental. Along the way they created some classics that never get old or tired.
What an amazingly brilliantly written and sung by Freddie. No, no they should never take this off their albums. What a singer he was, never will be replaced.
Definitely one of my favorites! I know you've done a reaction to Adam Lambert singing Believe by Cher, and I LOVE it, but listen to the songs he does with Queen. There are 3 more artists I would LOVE to see and that is Queen w/ Adam Lambert ( I wish Freddy was still alive ), Ozzy Osbourne and Elton John. I've been blessed to have seen some epic concerts from all genres. I do have to take my 7yr old granddaughter to see Pentatonix though. I've always wanted my kids and grandkids to know and love music as much as I do. I grew up in chorus, vocal ensembles and a capella and started singing Mary Did You Know, Little Drummer Boy and Hallelujah. I even sang it through the phone a few times. My 2 yr old granddaughter LOVES Celtic Women and Dolly Parton. I spent nights singing You Raise Me Up and Celtic Women's Disney Songs ( mainly Baby Mine ) to her.
At the last part, Freddy says "Get on your bike and ride". This is to reference the next song... "Bicycle Race" is a song by the British rock band Queen. It was released on their 1978 album Jazz and written by Queen's lead singer Freddie Mercury. It was released as a double A-side single together with the song "Fat Bottomed Girls", reaching number 11 in the UK Singles Chart and number 24 in the Billboard Hot 100 in the US.[2][3] The song is included in their 1981 Greatest Hits compilation. The song is notable for its video featuring a bicycle race with nude women at Wimbledon Stadium."
My brother in law listen to Queen all the time. I didn't know my son was paying attention until one night . We were at my in laws for dinner. My 3yr old son started singing this loudly at the table. They were not fans😂
There is a short video of naked, nicely rounded girls that was filmed in Europe and shot from behind that goes with this song and the bicycle song. I have seen it on YTube. 😂😂😂😂😂
I'm 62, I was into hard rock, I liked queen, .... but this is the song that made me a true fan, ...., ..you had to be there, ..to really understand , how different music was being made, and the news sounds,
🎼🔥💃🔥🎼🔥💃🔥🎼 way to go Sebs .. this song totally Rocks , love it !! love this band !! This is just great Rock n Roll !! .... I could listen to this song every day. Keep rockin' brother.
My 2nd fave Queen song! Lord, hate to think Queen's awesome catalog's being invaded by the politically correct. Leave the "fat-bottom girls" ALONE! Thanks for your reaction.
Love this song! The heavy drums, Brian May playing that guitar…and of course the legend, Freddie 😍 I’m re-discovering Queen, so their songs are on my playlist when driving. This is one song I blast out every time!
As a woman, il love this song. ❤It is therefore necessary to censor all the clips of rappers which highlight the buttocks advantages of young women. This Puritan world is going crazy.
Seven Seas of Rhye is another lesser known Queen song that has been buried in time. It is truly special, based on a game Freddy played with his sister.
I've been a fan of Queen from BEFORE Queen became famous. When we could actually have fun, and joke. I don't remember any fuss over this at the time. It was what it was.. a fun song with a great tune.
We were so lucky that these four brilliant individual musicians found each other. ❤️ And that these intelligent men risked their intellectually brilliant Education to follow their dreams. Brian just finished his Doctorate a few years ago. No need to do it. But HE needed to do that. 👍
Their whole discog is amazing. I feel like I personally could never be a react channel because 1. I have already listened to every song on the discography from every band I would ever consider reacting to 2. already seen a bunch of the live shows I have seen people react to 3. I would rather just grind the music for a few hours a day as opposed to having to wait to listen to one due to making a video for each of them I do however love watching people who are able to do react channels. I especially love your channel. It is very unique. From your treadmill, to your personality. It's amazing
Love ur reaction to queen, ive seen them twice live,totally amazing. Been a fan since early 70s.every album is brilliant.god bless freddy,all of them had amazing voices. Have u checked out The Prophets song,written by Brian,after a dream he had.also check out Rogers vocals on My Fairy King,from their 2nd album.amazing
Thanks, Sebs! This is actually a Brian May song.. he and Roger were the "rockers"... Everyone in the band agreed, though, that "everything sounds better when Freddie sings it"... and of course, he's got the strut & style to pull it off... lol (p.s. "get on your bikes & ride" at the end is a reference to "Bicycle Race" - where they actually sponsored a nude bicycle race...).. ALSO: I was amused by this post: "In 1978 Astrophysicist Brian May, assisted by F. Mercury, postulated that the earth's rotation was due to Fat Bottomed Girls... after more than 40 years, without being disproven, refuted, or even seriously questioned, this now must be accepted as scientific fact."
All of Queen's live performances are Killer...There is a particularly hot performance of 'Fat Bottomed Girls' Live At Milton Keynes 1982 that you might want to take a look at......Freddie in full stride.❤
Seaside rendezvous!!!!! Is one of my favorites!! Please consider listening to it. You’ll be surprised. Their ability to cross into so many genres is always amazing!!!
Brian May wrote this song (he's not gay by the way!). I have always loved Queen, so sad Freddie passed away (24 November 1991). He seriously was so incredible, style, clothing, voice, guitar, you name it!!!! 💖💖💖💖
I’ve been a fan since Queen first hit the airwaves in 1970, I was was entering ninth grade. We baby boomers grew up with a new and rather radical style of music. Once Les Paul invented the electrical pick up so guitars could be amplified. But I digress. There are many videos of the pre 1980 guitar gods visiting Les Pauls club in Texas in the 80’s and 90’s. Brian May visited Les’s club. Les wasn’t just an inventor, he was a guitar God from the late 1930’s until his death in 2007.
Freddie never came out. He lived how he wanted to live and f**k people who didn't like it. Back then we did not put labels on everything. Everybody knew that Freddie was Bi but no one cared and no one asked. It was a personal thing and not of our concern. He made amazing music and that was all we cared about. People back then were not that obsessed with the private life of actors/musicians etc simply because we did not have access to too much informations. There were the occasional magazine reports when a new album was on the way or a tour was announced, that was it. When Queen lived in Munich, everyody knew that Freddie frequented the gay bars in the city and we knew where to find him if we wanted to, but we didn't look out for him. Celebrities have a right to a private life as we do and we respected that.
The video clip showing the girls on bikes is great. Also, Freddie said that the girls found the riding of the bikes uncomfortable and the band hadn't thought about that beforehand.
Growing up in the 70's I think my first introduction to Queen was We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions. They played it a lot on the radio, for good reason. Then I ended up with a 45 with Fat Bottom Girls on one side and Bicycle Race on the other. I always loved that those two songs referenced each other in the lyrics. Just as We Will Rock You and We Are the Champions should always be played together, Fat Bottom Girls and Bicycle Race should always be played together.
Now that you've heard this song, you'll thoroughly enjoy going back to a group you've touched on a little bit, Home Free. You should do a reaction to the "Butts Medley". I would give you a hint, but it's better if you go into it 100% blind.
I think this is just cancelled from the greatest hits album on a streaming site that is geared for kids, not on any of their other sites or from their future greatest hits albums. Frankly, I don't understand why it is supposed to be a song that kids shouldn't hear but someone, somewhere, with no life who works in a company that is associated with Disney, made the call. I might understand Bohemian Rhapsody being pulled just because of the wording of killed and shot but for some reason, that one made it through. Brian wrote this song for Freddie because Freddie liked curvy hips and bottoms. Rumor has it that Brian also liked a little extra in the behind as well. Thank you for your reaction of this great song. I love it and always have along with everyone else I ever knew who heard it.
Queen is my absolute favorite band, and Freddie Mercury is my favorite singer. My parents and one of my Aunts raised me on them, and I am trying to do the same with my kids.
Saw Queen in concert, their ''Sheer Heart Attack'' tour in 1975. Had front row center seats. Not only was the music amazing Freddie Mercury was one hell of a showman.
Compa yo tuve la suerte de ser el menor de mi familia, hoy ya casi 40, y mis hermanos y primos ponían esta música así que crecí conociendo buena música...genial que lo estés descubriendo hoy, son una gran banda
This was actually written as a tribute to the groupies (us) who weren't "conventionally beautiful". It made those of us with what was considered less than perfect bodies feel good! I'd say don't believe everything you read. I can't imagine Queen taking this out of their set list any time soon.
When the movie Bohemian Rhapsody trailer came out I was like alright I gotta check them out for real now. I bought their two disc greatest hits and I was blown away I didn't know they sang more than half the songs I already knew lmao they're amazing!
I've had enough of this cancel culture who are determined to eek every bit of enjoyment out of life they can. FBG is a celebration of the fuller figured lady, there's absolutely nothing bad or wrong about that!
They still perform this song now, with Adam Lambert, when they performed it on their last tour, they had the Dallas cowboys cheer leaders on stage with them performing it,. You check that video out.
They can’t cancel this song. It’s artistic and an awesome song. It’s not a hate song, it’s a love song 😀
💯what yooo said!❤
@@laurallama73no one's cancelling the song. It's usual right wing culture war people trying to whip up an angry mob over a non story to blame "the woke".
Yesssss. Love it. And women with only little bit sense of humor love it to. Always, when I'm sad, tired or something, just listen this And everything is beter. And yes. I'm a girl (woman) 😊
Before there were any rap songs celebrating us girls with big bootys, there was Queen. Thanks, boys.
It’s fantastic, end of
To me this is definitely one of their best songs. For them to take it out of their greatest hits is sacrilege.
Wasn't it on the original greatest hits album? I'm probably wrong, because I'm thinking back about thirty years, and I don't quite trust my memory, going that far back.
It’s not coming out of their Greatest Hits, that was a fake culture wars story. There is a new streaming service starting that’s aimed at toddlers and pre-teens. Any slightly risky song from any band is being kept off the service, including this.
That’s all that’s happening
Thank heavens and thank you for clearing it up. @@johnmcdonald7339
It definitely is on their greatest hits. I have all their albums. You might say I'm a fan. 😂😂@@GimmeJimmy23
@@johnmcdonald7339 thanks for the clarification! This was my first time hearing anything about this, glad to hear it's just a nothing story.
I'm in my 60's and when this song came out, I thought it was a song of admiration, nothing derogatory.
Agreed. This song can never be cancelled! When I was in high school, our bus driver used to play the radio on the way to, and home, from school. Each day, in one direction, he’d play WDVE, the rock station, and on the other direction he’d play WAMO, the urban station. Queen was one of the few bands you’d hear played on both.

Radicals look for anything to demonize. It is our way today just as claiming Cancel was the other side... and low and behold our side has plenty now too. Look what was done to BARBIE.... yet it did not work cause of who still does barbies and their mothers... They said it made females dominant and males de-masculine.... not to mention nations who ban being gay said it was portraying men as gay....
HERE WE HAVE A GAY MALE.. who today would probably NOT be glorified by half of America who many now are saying SURE GLORIFY HIM. Queen was great.... yet can you imagine the QUEEN VIDEO of - "I WANT TO BREAK FREE" All are in DRAG.... GUESS WHAT... SOME WOULD CRY CANCEL and a WHO SIDE OF A PARTY WOULD JOIN IN.

This is all kinds of things George Washington WARNED US in his FAREWELL Address to Congress... that new members have read among other things.
DVE and WAMO... I know where you grew up! I never much listened to either of those, I usually had 96KX on as a teen.
96KX was a good station too! The whole era was great for radio and for a dial hopper like me! ☺
"Get on your Bikes and Ride!" was a nod to the other side of the single, "Bicycle Race".
DVE! Hey, neighbor! Are you the age that you remember XX?
They keep saying the song is offensive to the big booty girls, but when in all actuality, it’s to glorify them❤
💯
As they should be glorified.
Freddie was a genius. I don't think he realized how good he really was

All four band members wrote lyrics, arranged, played and sang. What a talented group! I love Roger's drumming on this.

Get your facts straight ..Brian wrote this with Freddie in mind!!
@@davebain1982you are so right...I saw a vid of him talking about the fact that he wrote for Freddie🤩
It is always the quiet ones 😏
I’ve always loved this song 🎶 Great band and every song different tempo rhythm
Definitely check out Tie Your Mother Down. I just love Brian, Rogers and Deacys riff.
It's one of my favourite Queen songs!!

The first album I ever bought. Love it! This is one of those songs that strikes you right off the first time hearing it, and it only gets better.
You need to watch the live performance at Keyes stadium- Freddie climbing on the scaffolding at the end-so cool!
I have this on vinyl. I'll never stop listening to it.
There will never be another Freddy Mercury, he will forever be missed and loved. ❤
There will be another transcendent talent one day. It may be far off, but it will come. We will likely not be around to enjoy it.

Sebs, Brian May is a phenomenal guitar player. I believe he's in the top 10 world-wide guitar player.
What an amazingly brilliantly written and sung by Freddie. No, no they should never take this off their albums. What a singer he was, never will be replaced.
Brian wrote this.
@@susanberrier5727yes, Brian did write this one.
Written by Brian actually.
Definitely one of my favorites! I know you've done a reaction to Adam Lambert singing Believe by Cher, and I LOVE it, but listen to the songs he does with Queen. There are 3 more artists I would LOVE to see and that is Queen w/ Adam Lambert ( I wish Freddy was still alive ), Ozzy Osbourne and Elton John. I've been blessed to have seen some epic concerts from all genres. I do have to take my 7yr old granddaughter to see Pentatonix though. I've always wanted my kids and grandkids to know and love music as much as I do. I grew up in chorus, vocal ensembles and a capella and started singing Mary Did You Know, Little Drummer Boy and Hallelujah. I even sang it through the phone a few times. My 2 yr old granddaughter LOVES Celtic Women and Dolly Parton. I spent nights singing You Raise Me Up and Celtic Women's Disney Songs ( mainly Baby Mine ) to her.
At the last part, Freddy says "Get on your bike and ride". This is to reference the next song...
"Bicycle Race" is a song by the British rock band Queen. It was released on their 1978 album Jazz and written by Queen's lead singer Freddie Mercury. It was released as a double A-side single together with the song "Fat Bottomed Girls", reaching number 11 in the UK Singles Chart and number 24 in the Billboard Hot 100 in the US.[2][3] The song is included in their 1981 Greatest Hits compilation.
The song is notable for its video featuring a bicycle race with nude women at Wimbledon Stadium."
Loved "Bicycle Race" and the video was a hoot although it did cause a flap when it was released.
*Wembley, not Wimbledon
Love them both
I Remember !
My brother in law listen to Queen all the time. I didn't know my son was paying attention until one night . We were at my in laws for dinner. My 3yr old son started singing this loudly at the table. They were not fans😂
😂😂😂😂😂
👍🔥
Great Reaction ❤ Listen to this and Queens "Bicycle" back to back... As one song... It's an epic listen I saw the in December of 1977, in Houston, TX.
There is a short video of naked, nicely rounded girls that was filmed in Europe and shot from behind that goes with this song and the bicycle song. I have seen it on YTube. 😂😂😂😂😂
I'm 62, I was into hard rock, I liked queen, .... but this is the song that made me a true fan, ...., ..you had to be there, ..to really understand , how different music was being made, and the news sounds,
That drum fill. Gets me EVERY TIME
🎼🔥💃🔥🎼🔥💃🔥🎼 way to go Sebs .. this song totally Rocks , love it !! love this band !! This is just great Rock n Roll !! .... I could listen to this song every day. Keep rockin' brother.
My 2nd fave Queen song! Lord, hate to think Queen's awesome catalog's being invaded by the politically correct. Leave the "fat-bottom girls" ALONE! Thanks for your reaction.
Love this song! The heavy drums, Brian May playing that guitar…and of course the legend, Freddie 😍
I’m re-discovering Queen, so their songs are on my playlist when driving. This is one song I blast out every time!
As a woman, il love this song. ❤It is therefore necessary to censor all the clips of rappers which highlight the buttocks advantages of young women.
This Puritan world is going crazy.
One of their best imo. Grew up listening to Queen and i had this bad boy on repeat!
Seven Seas of Rhye is another lesser known Queen song that has been buried in time. It is truly special, based on a game Freddy played with his sister.
I've been a fan of Queen from BEFORE Queen became famous. When we could actually have fun, and joke. I don't remember any fuss over this at the time. It was what it was.. a fun song with a great tune.
We were so lucky that these four brilliant individual musicians found each other. ❤️ And that these intelligent men risked their intellectually brilliant Education to follow their dreams. Brian just finished his Doctorate a few years ago. No need to do it. But HE needed to do that. 👍
I love your channel. I’m so happy that younger generations are experiencing Queen- the greatest band ever!! Enjoy
Their whole discog is amazing. I feel like I personally could never be a react channel because
1. I have already listened to every song on the discography from every band I would ever consider reacting to
2. already seen a bunch of the live shows I have seen people react to
3. I would rather just grind the music for a few hours a day as opposed to having to wait to listen to one due to making a video for each of them
I do however love watching people who are able to do react channels. I especially love your channel. It is very unique. From your treadmill, to your personality. It's amazing
So close to 100k!
Had to listen. I don’t know Queen that well either.
Queen may very be the best all around rock band ever. Many hours spent with them and their masterful musicianship.
Love ur reaction to queen, ive seen them twice live,totally amazing. Been a fan since early 70s.every album is brilliant.god bless freddy,all of them had amazing voices. Have u checked out The Prophets song,written by Brian,after a dream he had.also check out Rogers vocals on My Fairy King,from their 2nd album.amazing
This is one of favorite songs by Queen! That bass COOKS…
Thanks, Sebs! This is actually a Brian May song.. he and Roger were the "rockers"... Everyone in the band agreed, though, that "everything sounds better when Freddie sings it"... and of course, he's got the strut & style to pull it off... lol (p.s. "get on your bikes & ride" at the end is a reference to "Bicycle Race" - where they actually sponsored a nude bicycle race...).. ALSO: I was amused by this post: "In 1978 Astrophysicist Brian May, assisted by F. Mercury, postulated that the earth's rotation was due to Fat Bottomed Girls... after more than 40 years, without being disproven, refuted, or even seriously questioned, this now must be accepted as scientific fact."
All of Queen's live performances are Killer...There is a particularly hot performance of 'Fat Bottomed Girls' Live At Milton Keynes 1982 that you might want to take a look at......Freddie in full stride.❤
love that you check out so many different genres
Great song, I agree with everything. Also, you should definitely watch the live performance at Milton Keynes. They are always so amazing live!
Seaside rendezvous!!!!! Is one of my favorites!! Please consider listening to it. You’ll be surprised. Their ability to cross into so many genres is always amazing!!!
Freddie is GOD among men! He's incredible!
Brian May wrote this song (he's not gay by the way!). I have always loved Queen, so sad Freddie passed away (24 November 1991). He seriously was so incredible, style, clothing, voice, guitar, you name it!!!! 💖💖💖💖
Every band member in Queen are aces!
I can't get over my eras music nothing compares to it nowadays
Top 5 Queen song for me. Great reaction, man!
I’ve been a fan since Queen first hit the airwaves in 1970, I was was entering ninth grade.
We baby boomers grew up with a new and rather radical style of music. Once Les Paul invented the electrical pick up so guitars could be amplified. But I digress.
There are many videos of the pre 1980 guitar gods visiting Les Pauls club in Texas in the 80’s and 90’s.
Brian May visited Les’s club.
Les wasn’t just an inventor, he was a guitar God from the late 1930’s until his death in 2007.
Queen singing the praises of large bottomed girls more than a decade before Sir Mix-a-Lot.
Freddie never came out. He lived how he wanted to live and f**k people who didn't like it. Back then we did not put labels on everything. Everybody knew that Freddie was Bi but no one cared and no one asked. It was a personal thing and not of our concern. He made amazing music and that was all we cared about. People back then were not that obsessed with the private life of actors/musicians etc simply because we did not have access to too much informations. There were the occasional magazine reports when a new album was on the way or a tour was announced, that was it. When Queen lived in Munich, everyody knew that Freddie frequented the gay bars in the city and we knew where to find him if we wanted to, but we didn't look out for him. Celebrities have a right to a private life as we do and we respected that.
The video clip showing the girls on bikes is great. Also, Freddie said that the girls found the riding of the bikes uncomfortable and the band hadn't thought about that beforehand.
Growing up in the 70's I think my first introduction to Queen was We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions. They played it a lot on the radio, for good reason. Then I ended up with a 45 with Fat Bottom Girls on one side and Bicycle Race on the other. I always loved that those two songs referenced each other in the lyrics. Just as We Will Rock You and We Are the Champions should always be played together, Fat Bottom Girls and Bicycle Race should always be played together.
I often find those who like to censor songs for the lyrics have the most skeletons in their own closets
Now that you've heard this song, you'll thoroughly enjoy going back to a group you've touched on a little bit, Home Free. You should do a reaction to the "Butts Medley". I would give you a hint, but it's better if you go into it 100% blind.
I came to the comments to tell him the same thing! He'll love it. LOL!
This is my hands down most favorite Queen song!! It’s on every single playlist I have 😊
I think this is just cancelled from the greatest hits album on a streaming site that is geared for kids, not on any of their other sites or from their future greatest hits albums. Frankly, I don't understand why it is supposed to be a song that kids shouldn't hear but someone, somewhere, with no life who works in a company that is associated with Disney, made the call. I might understand Bohemian Rhapsody being pulled just because of the wording of killed and shot but for some reason, that one made it through. Brian wrote this song for Freddie because Freddie liked curvy hips and bottoms. Rumor has it that Brian also liked a little extra in the behind as well. Thank you for your reaction of this great song. I love it and always have along with everyone else I ever knew who heard it.
This is my absolute favorite Queen song❤❤❤ and it’s a crime to remove this song from any Queen playlist!….and I am a Fat Bottom Girl
"I Want it All" is another fantastic intro (and great song) by Queen.
Queen is my absolute favorite band, and Freddie Mercury is my favorite singer. My parents and one of my Aunts raised me on them, and I am trying to do the same with my kids.
A hit for decades. This song is an anthem
Saw Queen in concert, their ''Sheer Heart Attack'' tour in 1975. Had front row center seats. Not only was the music amazing Freddie Mercury was one hell of a showman.
Great, thanks! Someone must have told you, but just to be sure, Brian wrote this song. Freddie wrote "Bicycle Race" the companion song.
One of my favorite songs by Queen is called A Winter’s Tale. I think you’ll like it❤
Compa yo tuve la suerte de ser el menor de mi familia, hoy ya casi 40, y mis hermanos y primos ponían esta música así que crecí conociendo buena música...genial que lo estés descubriendo hoy, son una gran banda
Loved it from the time it was released.
This was actually written as a tribute to the groupies (us) who weren't "conventionally beautiful". It made those of us with what was considered less than perfect bodies feel good! I'd say don't believe everything you read. I can't imagine Queen taking this out of their set list any time soon.
I love Queen and this song. I always took it as a compliment sung by a Rock God to me.
Plus it's just fun
Wow 🥰 beautiful sweet Freddie ❤️ Freddie Mercury is simply unique 🤩 liked subscribed 😁
Indiana corn fed girls LOVE LOVE this song...you should see us dance in the bar to this song! LOL
When the movie Bohemian Rhapsody trailer came out I was like alright I gotta check them out for real now. I bought their two disc greatest hits and I was blown away I didn't know they sang more than half the songs I already knew lmao they're amazing!
Now you need to do Bicycle Race to understand the "get on your bikes and ride" line
I've had enough of this cancel culture who are determined to eek every bit of enjoyment out of life they can. FBG is a celebration of the fuller figured lady, there's absolutely nothing bad or wrong about that!
Queen crushed virtually every genre. They pretty much invented speed metal. Check out "Stone Cold Crazy."
They still perform this song now, with Adam Lambert, when they performed it on their last tour, they had the Dallas cowboys cheer leaders on stage with them performing it,. You check that video out.
Absolutely one of my favorites
