The greatest thing about watching Freddie is that you just know he’s having the best time every single time and it just makes you have the greatest time every single time! He’s such a joy to watch! Such a legend!!!! ♥️
Love the bass drive on this song! how can 4 guys make this much sound?
Freddie’s yellow jacket is famous. He majored in art and worked with a stylist to create his costume of the pants and jacket based on opera military costumes he’d seen in Spain.
Perfection is the only way to describe Queen. All of this live with no electronic gadgetry to back them up, just pure talent and passion. Each member a genius in their own right, all coming together and creating……… well, PERFECTION!!💯
VĂ RESPECT PĂREREA. UN ADEVĂR MAI MULT CA PERFECT.🙏
Rien d autre est comparable à la musique de queen ,et a Freddie, 🌞🌠 , yes complet package 👍
Freddie Mercury ❤
I can listen to Freddie & Queen all day! ♥♥♥♥♥
They were Destined from the time
They were born.They fit like
a puzzle.
This concert was absolutely brilliant.
Re. Freddie's yellow jacket .....it is iconic! It was last sold in 2004 at an auction for $49,000. His statue in Montreux,
Switzerland has him donning this iconic jacket.
This is Freddie's voice at its absolute finest IMO
Saw Freddie live Aug 1980 and i will tell you it was the highlight of my life and nothing to compare. Then i was fortunate to see Queen w/ AL in Aug 2019 almost 29 years to the date. Great show but there will never be another Freddie.
John Deacon is amazing on bass, he looks younger in this than in the 70's. The whole Wembley 86 concert is so amazing!
All 4 amazing musicians.
Very early on in his performance career, Freddie was struggling to remove his mic from it's stand and the stand broke in two. He felt so comfortable using the mic stand that he decided to keep it and actually went on to have specially balanced stands made and thus an iconic imagery was born.
Queen did the full soundtrack for Highlander, songs include Princes Of The Universe, Who Wants To Live Forever, Give Me The Prize, It's A Kind Of Magic and One Year Of Love etc. Etc. They all wrote songs for it.
ALL should watch this whole concert. This was their last live performance and they KNEW IT!!! PLEASE watch the whole 2 HOURS. HE LEAVES IT ALLLLLL ON THE STAGE!!!
Yup😂
ALL should watch this whole concert. This was their last live performance and they KNEW IT!!! PLEASE watch the whole 2 HOURS. HE LEAVES IT ALLLLLL ON THE STAGE!!!
LOVE OF MY LIFE same concert
Loved your analogy between Freddie and Tina, she is the only one who comes close to Freddie's stage presence, both phenomenal performers.
The great Freddie Mercury a voice GOD!
Queen wrote the musical score for the movie Highlander. When they were first asked, the band decline but then they were shown about 20 minutes of the rough cut of the movie and it inspired them. All 4 them wrote songs that were included in the soundtrack, though the versions of the songs that were included in the Queen album were revised from the movie version to be more Queen,
Here's a list of Queen songs from Highlander:
Princes of the Universe - Freddie
Gimme the Prize (Kurgan's Theme) - Brian
One Year of Love - John
Who Wants To Live Forever - Brian
Don't Lose Your Head - Roger
A Kind Of Magic - Roger
You should react to the videos of "Princes of The Universe" and "One Year Of Love" both of which mix in scenes from the movie with video of Queen. but you must react to the LIVE version of "Who Wants To Live Forever". The way Freddie sings it is so poignant.
BTW - The half-mic stand is one of Freddie's trademarks. It apparently was created when Freddie attempted to remove the mic from the sand during a performance but the mic was stuck. He pulled so hard (while continuing to sing) that the mic stand broke in half. Without missing a beat, he continued the performance with the stand. He liked it and almost always used it.
You are right, Freddie is a "fiddler". Watch him in interviews, he always has something in his hands to "fiddle" with. Some claim he began smoking just to have something to do with his hands (I doubt that - it was the 70s).
Brilliant film, the music by Queen just so perfect.
ALL should watch this whole concert. This was their last live performance and they KNEW IT!!! PLEASE watch the whole 2 HOURS. HE LEAVES IT ALLLLLL ON THE STAGE!!!
There were 2 performances at Wembley....and then the last one was at Knebworth🤩
Now this man could sing...may his voice forever warm up our hearts...RIP Freddy...!!!...missing you...👍👍👍👍👍
Freddie was a once in a lifetime experience. Loved him and Queen and how fortunate that I was raised on their music.
His Mic stand is his trademark, he broke it in the early days of Queen and liked having it in his performances
He was in a band before Queen.
the mic broke in half when he was with another band but he like the half mic feels when he performed so he continued to performed with it as when he was with queen
Fascinante ... 💗..... amazing .... simply.... Beautiful .... (Queen)
What a show!!! I was there, both nights.
Irene Downie wow.....lucky you! Must have been a blast! Love Queen!
Marilyn Smith - my sister and I have seen them 8 times with Freddie and once with Adam, and everyone single one was AMAZING!!!! 😍😍😍
Irene Downie How wonderful. How I would have loved to have see Queen with Freddie! I did see Queen with Adam on the Rhapsody tour last year and agree with you...Amazing!
Marilyn Smith Thank goodness for all the footage we have to watch. Queen left a fantastic legacy. ❤️ x
Definitely one of my favorite Queen songs Derek. FREDDIE is a genius! Miss him...great Queen reactions! I love all of them. More to come, I HOPE...
loved this reaction so much!! Queen is incomparable, greatest live band ever in my opinion!! you should react to Who Wants To Live Forever & Under Pressure from this same concert! also thank you for recognizing Roger, Brian & John as well, all of them were so amazing!
I honestly live to watch people seeing Freddie for the first time, that's my life now.
This was part of their Magic worldwide tour in ‘86, the first tour that they’d played where they’d made a profit as revealed by Brian May in interview. Alas, the last time they toured 😢. This show was 1 of 2 at Wembley Stadium both of which sold out within just a few hours of tickets going on sale (before the advent of the internet remember) and again BM revealed demand was SO HIGH they’d have probably sold-out 5/7 nights had the stadium been free to host them. So over two nights they played to approx 150,000 and as an extra at the tail end of this tour they played at a rock conference at Knebworth Park where it was estimated that they played to 350,000!!
Surely it’s time for the greatest performance of them all Derek? Live aid full set (not just radio gaga). Many feel it’s the greatest live set of all time. I want to see Derek react to it.
Yes please Live Aid Live Aid Live Aid
I love live aid, but I liked this wembley show more. Live Aid was all about stealing a show when no one had much expectations for you....While Freddie had a sore throat. If you really listen to it, the first song or two sounds slightly off before he powers through last 4 or 5 songs.
Theyve done an an entire concert by this stage. Freddie is feeling it, but having the time of his life as always ❤❤
Now I'm here from this concert is phenomenal. His strut is amazing in this one.
you need to react to White Queen Live at the Odeon hammersmith 1975 by Queen it's such an amazing performance and the instruments coming together in harmony it's superb this song take you on a journey well it does for me.
Thank you for reacting to Queen I just love them so much and love Freddie. Queen are best seen live
Unbelievable power in his voice -- truly remarkable. Freddie pulls out every breath from his body to show you he is indeed a legend already!
I can never get enough of Freddie or Queen. Freddie is all I can watch. What a man.
Omg I definitely agree. I am so obsessed with them❤❤❤
You really, Really, REally, REAlly, REALly, REALLy, REALLY need to check out “Another One Bites the Dust” from this same concert Wembley 1986! They took this iconic song and really made it a concert experience! 🔥🔥👑🔥🔥
For me this Yell😢jacket is so iconic, I love this colour on Frieddir
The yellow leather jacket with the straps that Freddie was wearing became almost synonymous with him almost as much as trademark moustache.
It was a jacket that he wore in quite a few of their live performances, in the collaboration with David Bowie singing Under Pressure for example.
I saw Queen several times beginning in 1975 and they were the most special kind of magic, forever.
Freddie Mercury wat an amazing voice live,
Great reaction 👏👏👏 more Queen 👏 did you react to "One vision" live in wembley 1986 👏👏👏
Gimme tried chicken 😊🎵🎵🎶🎶😊
Even though we do want to see Brian, John, and Roger...we ALWAYS want to see what Freddie is doing ❤️
Live Queen is the best
Amazing awsome the greatest showman on earth 🌎
I love ALL your comments. I seriously know every single beat and gasp and vocal and strut of this whole concert, but I love watching someone else watching it!!! And you point out so many little things I’m sure people don’t notice. Great video!!! Thanks Dereck!
Love everything about this performance , it’s perfect in my eyes. . A great song live - penned by Roger. I love his backing vocals so much in this too.
The concert at Milton Keyes Bowl- 1981-knock you out of your mind!! Between Freddie trying to ‘eat’ Brian’s guitar and Freddie’s ‘love’ of the scaffolds!! DAM*!!
Always lovely to see younger people getting into Queen 😄
Queen where (and still are for the great part) my heroes growing up in the 80's. Still remember like yesterday the very first time i listened to A Kind Of Magic on the Top 20 and saw the video clip in 86, just released.... I got the album immediately on my way to school the next morning... 😋
While i love every single year of the 80's ,1986 will always be the "magic year" of the 80's for me.... Not only because of this album (and the Wembley gig) but all the amazing songs and albums that came out and came on the charts that year, it was insane.... like a tsunami of great music week after week... 😄
when you see Freddie getting his Mic handed to him very quickly, The guy I forget his name but Freddie gave him the mic and pole when he passed and he dipped it in Gold.
It's actually from the film Highlander,the mic stand happened by accident in the very early days,and the movement by Freddie means something too the rest of the group,they all work by looking at one another and he stops it when he feels times right,and he can play the guitar
Hey my friend. I am new to your channel. I am a huge fan. Great reaction my brother. Loved the way you break this song down. I love that you like QUEEN. I will be watching your channel for sure. Thank you for the QUEEN video. Take care my friend. QUEEN BEE.
Thanks bro...more Queen coming for sure
@@DereckReacts thank you
Love this one by Queen !
this was a great concert my favorite, try White Queen live 1975, amazing video of the early days.
Saw the "Kind of Magic"-concert as thirteen-year-old kid in Vienna.
Best concert ever!
Whenever I watch a queen performance I always expect a pose from Freddie. Some kind of masterful pose. He most famous one was with his yellow jacket. There’s a statue of him made in his honor somewhere in England.
You know John Deacon invented the amps the band used- Brian constructed his guitar he is playing when he was a teenager. Roger also has his own band- The Cross. Freddie also made an album singing opera- Barcelona.
Who Wants To Live Forever. Please play this song
At Wembley
This performance and song was indeed a kind of magic personified.
should react to this entire concert...Wembley 1986.
You want great instrumentation try: WHITE QUEEN, live at Hammersmith Odeon, plus the bonus of an wary Freddie out of this world pure heavenly voice
If you notice whether it's a guitar solo or a bass solo. Freddie will always go to the back ground to let them have there spotlight
Yup the were a complete unit. Lol you should see how flexible Freddie was in the ‘70s 😀
This show has some excellent performances. ESP another one bites the dust & under pressure. You can get your Deaky Fill. Definitely The Saturday show.
Loved your reaction. Queen also did the soundtrack for the Flash Gordon movie. I recommend you react to the concert opener of Queen On Fire at the Bowl 1982 Milton Keynes. Queen opens with Flash, The Hero, & We Will Rock You (fast version). AMAZING!! MAGICAL!!
Yes please 🙏
Fantastic reaction! Thank you for that.
Please react to Under Pressure, live at Wembley or Montreal, or Budapest 👏👏👏
Did you know that Brian May's guitar is called The Red Special and it is the only one of its kind because it was made by Brian and his father in their garage at home many years ago.
I saw them in their last live performance with Freddie in ‘86 at Knebworth Park, England on the Magic tour
May be the best Queen song ever, to me at least. You should do the official video. The recorded version has so many more great effects. Discovered this a few years ago. Amazing song!
Official video is inspired!
Not sure if you have an answer on his jacket but Freddie designed 3 of them Yellow White and Red and White. As for his mic it broke off in early 70's and the guy who passes it to Freddie thru his whole career was given to him From Freddie and he had it dipped in gold.
One of the greatest ever. Queen sing "Who Wants To Live Forever" at this same concert, defo worth a watch.
Also "Love Of My Life" @Live Aid is incredible
Sorry, Love of My Life wasn't done at Live Aid
Correct Lizzie, it was live @ Wembley. Thanks.
Wenn ich sowas hör wünsch ich mir immer in den 70ern geboren zu sein damit ich das dann live in den 80ern mitbekommen hätte
You've just gained new subscriber! This my favourite upbeat song of theirs, love the lyrics. Was it written by John Deacon? Not sure. Tina Turner, now you're talking! Seen her many times live and she is amazing, and yes, just like Freddie in terms of giving her all, charisma and ability to engage with her audience. Thank you..
Next should be 1986 Wembley "Now I'm Here "!! You will love it!
Didn't know this, but this was written by Roger Taylor. This band was so talented and deep. The jacket reminds me of one that MJ wore. Love watching your Queen reactions Dereck. You have such an appreciation for Queen's talent. Please check out Melancholy Blues for something completely different from them.
I bet Freddie would have loved your Tina Turner comparison. He also loved singers like Liza Minelli, Shirley Bassey and most of all Aretha Franklin. Brian May once said “Freddie wanted to be Aretha Franklin”.
The miracle is one to see? One vision.
This song was originally called A Kind of Vision..its on TH-cam
Great reaction to one of Queen’s best. Please check out the sad but awesome “I’m Going Slightly Mad”!
Beautiful, the live performances by Queen are lit 🔥🔥 I suggest One Vision and Who wants to live forever live from the same concert. Keep up the good work. Much bless dear❤
LEGEND!!!
You should react to Freddie and David Bowie "UNDERPRESSURE". Freddie hits an unbelievable note to make shivers go down your epine.
Please don't hate me, but, my amazing wife took me to this concert as a welcome home surprise when I returned from Ethiopia in May 1986. She also took us to see Queens last ever concert at Knebworth Park, Stevenage, later in August of this same year. My Regiment had been posted for 11 months to help with the humanitarian crisis caused by the famine that had hit Ethiopia. When at one of the Refugee Camp's we had listened to Live Aid on the radio, we were surrounded be the horror of the Famine, but when Queen came on the radio those poor soles who were there amazed us, and reacted in a very positive way. I remember that a lot of us Royal Marine Commandos were crying watching some of the children dancing along, I'm teary eyed just remembering. I looked around at men I had fought alongside, who were tough, hardened Royal Marine Commandos who had fought a life and death war against Argentinian's in 82. By the end of Queen's set we were dancing with the children. It went along way to help build their trust in us. The famine is only one of to many to count, terrible memories I have from 34 years of active service, and 2 years hospitalisation. But when I remember the smiles on the children's faces, and their laughter at the terrible way we danced always reminds me that humanity will always find it's way through even the worst of times.
I only watched Queen at Live Aid for the first time last year, my son put it on the TV. A lot of memories came back and a lot of tears.
Roger was definitely doing backing vocals on this song you can see him singing when the camera is on him have another listen to it & many others at this concert
It's funny you mention Tina Turner. Before Freddie started singing I was thinking about the Proud Mary performance at Wembley. I'm sure you know it, but if not, you know, check it out 😉👍
Yes because Freddie is 100000000000% great
Who wants to live forever live at wembley by queen the best
That’s not smoke....it’s dry ice...imagine trying to sing with smoke floating around🤣
You need to see the Movie to know about the mic he uses. I first time he sang he broke the stand and he used it as his prop forever after.
Fun fact: early on Brian May needed a guitar but too expensive. So using his skills as an Astrophysicist and with help from his dad Harold, who was an electrical guy who built a lot of their home appliances, decided to do a father-son project and built the "Red Special" that you see him with today. They implemented a few ideas of their own and his one of a kind guitar that took him to the stratosphere would be priceless today.
@Graeme Potts, asking cause I thought they made it together cause his Dad was an encouraging involved parent - they weren't poor. Dad was a successful businessman and his son was smart and inquisitive and voila . . .poverty wasn't the motivation. I've read others have said it wasn't due to no money for a guitar. I'm thrilled to see it as more evidence of the fabulous backgrounds of our Queen 'boys'. Love 'em forever. EDIT - and Brian was an only child.
Amazing queen
it is simply...you are talking about A KIND OF MAGIC, this song its about the magic of them all together.
About the microphone stand at one of their very first performances he went to get the mic off the stand and it broke. Leaving the pole attached to the mic. So he liked it and he continued to use it! That’s his signature!
Because Freddie is the 🎵🎶🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶
He was holding a microphone since the sheer attack album
Whether you watch on your channel or by yourself you need to watch this whole concert. Freddie has more vocal sounds that will amaze you. And you should react to Somebody to love 1981 in montreal live.❤
Derek have you done ‘Princes of the Universe ‘? It’s impressive- the video takes your breath away- it is one of the songs Queen wrote for the movie
‘Highlander’ - beautiful songs written for the movie. Thanks- I love your reactions and the passion you let us share-
When Queen went to Sanremo they were forced to lipsync, something Freddie Mercury hated. You have to see what he did.....
One answer Queen 😊
👏👏👏👏reaction .. 👑❣️🎶 Roger (drums) normally does backup vocals also Brian .. I am sure I heard some .. gonna have to listen again now!!! Be back with an edit !!!
Back yep 7:12 Rogers definitely in there :)
Classic.
If you want to see even better instrumentation, check out Crazy Little Thing Called Love from the same concert - even has Freddie on the guitar as well as piano!
