All of the Queen group can sing. Mercury could play countless instruments. They all wrote songs. The best group ever, the likes of which will never be heard again. They were stunning live.
Every generation has one band like this, and only one. The Beatles and Queen are undeniably those.
I agree - This was written by Brian May for the film Highlander (the original)
@@dianehodgkinson7113original? As apposed to to what the recent remake?
Queen : the best band ever 👑✨
Amen
Mmm...
Hell to the yes.
@@carn9507 🤘🏼👑
They are definitely in the top of the top groups. Very few bands are at that level. They have to be unique and not fit fully into any genre. My favorite band is Pink Floyd but Queen is right there.
The Show Must Go On is another heart-ripper from Queen!
Freddie left the physical world on the 24th November 1991. But he's still here with us, in our memories, hearts and souls, forever.
Brian May wrote this one for an emotional scene in 'Highlander' a soundtrack that contains more Queen than originally intended. They were asked to provide one song, they wrote 6, provided 8 and performed 9, all band members wrote at least one song each for the movie.
And they did the Flash Gordon soundtrack, which is worth the price of admission by itself
@@weldonwin love both films, and soundtracks
I have some songs making me crying for life. "Who wants to live forever" is one of them.
Queen - The Show Must Go On ... just as spectacular.
And the Great Pretender
First mistake is trying to label Queen; Queen was their own Genre. As far as "getting in the feels" with this song; Trust me, you are not alone. you FEEL Freddie's Voice
If you like this, I highly recommend “Barcelona”, Freddie and Montserrat Cabelle.
Absolutely agree
Or I want to break free
@Sidhecat and The Golden Boy
Absolutely Beautiful! 💞
Barcelona is magical!! A real goose bump inducing masterpiece of a song
They were real musicians not a rockband only.
Absolutely - is there anything that Queen could not do in music terms? Brilliant song. And did you spot Mr John Deacon playing a different instrument?
@@janettesinclair6279 Freddie asked John if he could play the double bass. John came in with one and played it. Love John.
Can ACDC sing this song? No!
Gives me so much goosebumps and shivers, love that song, I get emotional every time.
I love this song.
It's on Highlander soundtrack but it always makes me think of Freddie Mercury's death.
Queen forever all songs is a masterpeace and wow Freddie Mercery the best performer and singer of all time and Brian May signing s amazing. Freddie you are missed in our hearts forever never forgotten ❤️🌹my greatings from norway 🇸🇯❤️🌹
R.i.P Freddy. Queen is the only rock band with a member recently granted with a PhD in astrophysics. This is so cool B-)
Freddie is the number one singer ever
No body can sing like him i,m inlove with his voice elvis was my favorite but no anymore freddie is another level his agod music💕💞
This song live at Wembley 1986. It's great...Queen live is the best.
Brian takes the piano over and plays with his guitar across his lap until he needs it, while Freddie sings the lead
it's the soundtrack from the first "Highlander" movie, with Christophe Lambert (if you haven't seen the movie, just don't hesitate, but only the first one). There were other little gems from that soundtrack, like "Princes of the Universe" (I'm sure you've heard this one!) or "One year of love", "Kind of magic".
Beautiful sountrack for a wonderful movie. Too bad the following movies sucked but the tv series was good IMO. There are rumors of a Highlander reboot with Henry Cavill (Yes, Superman himself, lol).
No, the sadness has to do with the story of the movie: it's about immortals who have to go on living while watching the ones they love die. "There can be only one", is the mantra of the movie, the immortals have to fight each other for "The Prize".
Yes! Amazing movie! Only the first, sure 😅! And Sean Connery, fantastic!
c est sur si il regarde le 2 le pauvre lol bon le 3 et end game ca peut a la rigueur passer mais apres stop !!!!
I thought tha twas just common knowledge to be fair!
I am such a Highlander nerd! 🤪
After the movie I had to have the CD album, A Kind of Magic.
Freddie passed November 24, 1991. This year it will be 30 years. This song still moves me, even after 3 decades.
This is the song that made me fall in love with Queen. I was a huge fan of the Highlander TV show as a teen, and this was one of two songs they played over the most tragic scenes. I had to know who sang it, and then I had to hear everything else they’d ever done. It’s still my favorite song by them to this day.
Also, that man could wear a tux like nobody’s business.
Please, please, please do the live version at Wembley '86. You will definitely tear up on that one.
Indeed!
Check out the Budapest version
The BEST musicians always die Young.....RIP Freddie Mercury. Greatly missed.
This is such an outstanding video. I love that John is playing the upright bass and Roger skillfully playing percussion and of course Brian singing, plus the power of Freddie it is all beautiful and well produced.
I love seeing John Deacon playing the bass
Seems John rarely gets the credit he so very much deserves💜
The word was that John got all the girls, though. John never seemed to try to stand out so he is often overlooked, except by the ladies, apparently.
53 year old now and I know every note musicaly I know every note vocally yet every time I listen to Queen it's like the first time . They are timeless .
Un bijou....❤. My favourite song from Queen. At least the one that makes me the more emotional.
Thanks for this reaction.
Yes, Julie! It’s got heavy hitting impact on the heart.
If Brian's guitar is his "voice" you can hear every emotion he was going through in Bijou. My favourite..full volume . The whole Innuendo album is awesome
John bowing standup bass. Freddie killing the vocals and Brian has a lovely voice and so does Roger. Watch it live also. Just as good.
Loved seeing John playing the upright bass, definitely one of the highlights for me
Budapest LIVE. Spectacular!
You should listen to "Barcelona". Freddie Mercury with Opera Singer Montserrat Caballe. Queen was a one of kind band & Freddie Mercury had such a phenomenal voice.
Awesome reaction. You should check out Freddie Mercury signing alongside Montserrat Caballe' - Barcelona. They did an album together, and it is a fully orchestrated album.
This amazing track is featured in the film Highlander. I was lucky enough to have seen Queen live. They were awesome.
Listen to in my Defence. Also a power ballad.
You should see them perform this song (live @ Wembley Stadium).
4 very talented musicians, Freddy was and still is the ultimate showman. If he had become sick just 5 or 10 years later, maybe he would have still been with us. however his music is still here, to inspire, to soothe and to fire up the listener. Freddie will always love on in his music and the music of queen. I always wonder how much more we would have had from these guys has he not passed
It's queen at their best, brings tears to my eyes every time, the lyrics and the power of their voices come together perfectly, it is perfection
It's impossible that you just discovered this song now. I have been a Queen fan for 46 years
We will never see a more wonderful band, different yes, sure, but never one so loved.
Written by Dr. Brian May for the soundtrack for Highlander, also Its a Kinda Magic.
A Kind of Magic was written by Roger, not Brian.
@@decodolly1535 I said Brian wrote Who Wants To Live Forever and you are right Roger did write A kind of Magic.
@@decodolly1535 true
Did you notice John Deacon playing the double bass? Please react to the Prophet’s Song. Freddie does canon delay that is absolutely amazing.
Oh yes react to that one too
One of my favorite song forever ! From the movie "Highlander" ! So great 💖💝 Thx for your reacts (and for whom proposed this song) 💐💐💐
The QUEEN rabbit hole goes on forever and is awesone , , I never tire of it . . So many emotions throughout all their music . .
No words, simply beautiful!!!!! Thankyou for a Queen reaction again, loved it as always dear. Hope to see more along the way, much bless youngman!
Queen performed this song live during their 1986 Magic Tour….the Wembley 1986 version is fantastic…so is Budapest. Absolutely epic live. Thanks for your Queen reactions! You are awesome!
Amazing et emotional music
Every time I hear this song I have visions of Highlander Conner McLeod when the love of his life passes. The heartbreak of being immortal.
First of all, nobody can compare to Freddy. That being said, Adam Lambert did a pretty damn good job of this song live at The Isle Of Wight Festival. Totally cried.
You really need to watch the movie Highlander it's even more emotional.
When he witness everyone he loves dying of old age.
One of the best bands ever , what else needs to be said .
This track was a highlight of the tour live and ever since ….. stunning track that Freddie just went to town on live !!!! One of the best ever !!!
One of my favorite songs, and I met Queen as a young boy, I was 12 when I found a cassette in the forest in the 90's and since I started listening to them I can't listen anymore. Yes, the cassette found in the woods has changed my approach to music for years.
Magnifique morceau, éternelles vibrations de tout le groupe
, la guitare waouw waouw waouw
Merci beaucoup beaucoup nice Dereck
Great and Amazing Queen for ever
Forever my favorite Queen song....it's just so gorgeously alive
Thanks Dereck!! Great reaction! Luv this song written by Brian May for the Highlander movie soundtrack. Most of the comments mention that but when Queen watched a teaser clip of the movie they decided to each write a song for the soundtrack. Brian wrote this one & GIMME THE PRIZE - Freddie PRINCES OF THE UNIVERSE - Roger Taylor A KIND OF MAGIC & DON’T LOSE YOUR HEAD - John Deacon ONE YEAR OF LOVE (Amazing vocals by Freddie). The Highlander movie starred Sean Connery, Christopher Lambert, & Clancy Brown (Mr. Krabs voice on Spongebob). RIP SEAN & FREDDIE 🌿🌸🌿🌼🌿🌸🌿
My favorite! The world is less bright since you passed away... Cannot help me crying, respect Mister Mercury 😪😥💖
As much as I love Queen's music in general, this is my absolute favorite!
You have the most fun reactions, I actually watch you and not them! This song gives me chills every single time. Brian May’s almost angelic voice here in contrast to Freddie and his powerhouse voice. And there is nothing better than when you combine rock and roll music with an orchestra, something you think wouldn’t work but it really does! Plus the kid’s at the end? Chills just all the way! ❤️
From the movie Highlander. Protagonist is immortal but lover grows old.
Looooooove this song...so much momentum!!!
The album version has the proper ending, not just the fade out on this version, which is the
Single version. Definitely give the album version a go as the ending is epic.
I always cry when I hear this song. Because it was in the movie "Highlander" and the images of the movie always come rushing to my mind. And it brings tears
Kurgan used to scare me so much with that skelleton armor
@@resireg Me too. And the first time I watched I was ... Not sure maybe 10 but not more...
This song has ripped my heart out every time I've heard it for more than 30 years! It is a masterpiece! I want it played at my funeral.
Sobbing all over the place. My first music love back in the days. Dereck, thanks 🤍
God Bless our beloved Freddie. Remember this was during the AIDS epidemic and so many people were dying. That must have had some bearing on this beautiful song. So the song hits us emotionally on so many levels.
Freddy was an incrédible singer, rip 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
Эта удивительная группа писала не только красивые грандиозные песни, не только бесподобно исполняла их, не только невообразимо предъявляла их публике, но они до мелочей продумывали каждую исполняемую ноту, каждый звук, каждую паузу, каждый музыкальный момент, потому их песни были, есть и будут самыми профессиональными, самыми неповторимыми, самыми совершенными и востребованными. Queen - это непревзойденное совершенство, подаренное нам Небесами!
The most beautiful song, Queen ever sung ! Could hear it over and over again, even after decades... timeless masterpiece ! And your reaction was phenomenal. Please don't forget my patreon request for Eivor Falling free ! Best wishes : Gerry
i love this song and it was a great pleasure to hear it in sound track in BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY...so good song ...
My favorite song from Queen since I saw Highlander (the movie) when I was really young. And still my favorite ! Just sad that the video you react was cut before the last notes of the song. Great reaction thank you !
Classical Orchestration done by Michael Kamen(RIP)
he worked with many rock bands including Metallica.
You need to watch the live version from budapest Hungary, 1986. Amazing!
This performance by Queen is outstanding but I also highly recommend that you watch the video of The Tenors featuring Lindsey Sterling doing this song, it is brilliant with The Tenors playing the part of Vampires.
Great song from a great movie.
I like how in the end it's triumphant: like, 'Fuck it! You're only gonna be around for a short bit of my immortal life, so I'm just gonna have to cram an ETERNITY's worth of love into that short life of yours however I can!'
The song was made for the movie “Highlander” about an immortal who loses the love of his life yet still chooses to go on and do great things. Good movie. Immortality is shown to be a curse, with loss/death giving meaning to every moment we have. Brian May captured the power of that idea in this song.
Cette musique m'arrache TOUJOURS des larmes, à chaque écoute. Elle transmet des émotions tellement puissances !
The live redition is grand too 🎵
Check this out live! Its in my opinion even more epic. Wembley 1986. The whole crowd is quiet and just listens to their favorite band. Please check it out!
Hello Dereck wahou wahou Freddie Mercury ce grand Monsieur du groupe Queen quel sublime chanson je n avais pas vu cette version merci Dereck j ai acheté mon premier album en Nouvelle Zélande et depuis je suis fan merci🥰🥰
You should check out the movie Highlander that Queen wrote the movie soundtrack for. Freddie wrote Princes of the Universe, Roger wrote It’s A Kind Of Magic, Brian wrote this song Who Wants To Live Forever, and John wrote the gorgeous song One Year Of Love. All 4 of these guys were multi talented musical geniuses especially when they created together. A symbiotic energy formed.
You should listen Freddie Mercury-Exercises in free love! That's incredible vocal. More Queen, more Mercury.
Queen... so much classics... best band ever ... so sad we lost him...
Freddie Mercury what a voice he had we will miss you 🙏
I think this is the best ever song from Freddie & Queen. Especially Brian May as he wrote this song. Roger Taylor was amazing as was John Deacon, playing the cello. Having the orchestra & choir was also a build up. Love, love this formidable song!!!!!!!!
This song always makes me think of my sister who was taken too soon at age 27. She would be 50 years old if she were alive today. I always cry when I hear this song, and it just goes to show you that time doesn't heal your wounds. I miss her every day.
I love this version for the grand scale and cool factor...I love live for the sheer passion. 💖
Every one of the band members had a masters degree, most interlectual group ever
Freddie’s voice..I am in heaven ❤
they wrote this for the iconic film "Highlander". They didnt see the movie early or get the script. they were told to just write a song for a movie about immortal beings duking it out
When they recorded this song Freddie sang the first two verses. But he was so sick he couldn’t come back to finish the last verse. So Brian sang the last verse on the recording. But no matter it’s a beautiful song. Well done by all! They’re all extremely talented! Love Queen! No other band can compare to them!
Amazing band from an era of amazing bands.
Queen, Yes, Genesis, Rush, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Pink Floyd ...
the list just keeps going.
"They're not just a rock band. They're more than that."
They're Queen.
Watch out, watch out there are a few bananas flying around. You encapsulated
The true meaning of the song. Love it along with you!!
It’s MacLeod (“ma-cloud”) 😂
My favourite ever song, just because of the build-up (starting with Brian’s softer voice, progressing to Freddie’s powerful voice), the tension, the resolution, the joy, the despair, the depth (with the full orchestra), the perfect guitar solo. It’s completely atmospheric. It’s a masterpiece.
Freddie Mercury et Queen : les meilleurs de tous les temps ! La voix de Freddie Mercury est absolument fabuleuse ! Dereck, il faut absolument que tu regardes Freddie Mercury et Montserrat Caballe (Barcelona), c'est génial, ça touche directement l'âme !
oh que oui le duo de ces deux chanteurs me fait passer les frissons chaque fois que je les écoute
@@sylviebertin7899 et à moi, ça me tire des larmes, je ne peux rien maîtriser ;-)
React please to Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballé Barcelona is beautiful you will love it! ♥️
@@p.p.8022 C'est exactement ce que j'ai écrit en français ;-)
I was just watching your reaction to Somebody to Love and since that was a year ago I thought perhaps you'd be more l ikely to read comments from this reaction. You remarked about all the drinks on the piano. I've heard so many reactors mention this and since you are the only one that really seems to research the subjects and songs, I wanted to tell you that it was common practice in the US and obviously in the UK as well, for members of the audience to buy drinks for the band and have them delivered to the stage. Of course, the piano is the only place to display these drinks. You will occasionally see Freddy take a sip from one of these cups, but they're not there just for him and he didn't buy them for himself. I guess that practice has fallen out of favor these days, but it was a show of appreciation for the artists. Hope you will impart this information to you're viewers if you do more Queen reactions. Thank you for your reaction videos, they are always informative, as well as just good music.
It's still a common practice, when watching Irish Bands, at Pubs, Fairs, etc...we do it here in 🇺🇸, and in other countries ✌
Thanks for this one. Yes it is very epic in the video, with the orchestra. However, the live version, with only Freddie singling lead and the boys harmonizing is amazing and also captures the greatness of both the song and Freddie's singing. Please react to the live version in Budapest. thanks.
Un autre monde, Gainsbourg and who want to live forever, very good day 👍
Ma chanson préférée du groupe.
J'ai toujours aimé les slow-rock comme pour le groupe Scorpion.
Cette chanson de Queen a le pouvoir de me faire pleurer.
Los mejores sin duda 🌻🌻🌻🌻 talento, musicalidad y atemporal. Gracias y 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Masterpiece..
First time watching this too, he looked quite sick in this video, I suppose it was shot near the end of his life. He's still missed by millions, what a legend.
In actual fact, this song/video was released in 1986, 5 years before Freddie passed away. He was still healthy and was touring the UK and Europe with Queen around the time this song was released.
@@freddiefan93 Thanks, must be the make up then
It’s from Highlander and Brian May was talking about a scene or theme of it that while someone is immortal those they love grow old and pass away and how much that really touched him I love this song, the words the theme and Freddie’s voice all combined for one beautiful song and I love the orchestration for this too, shows just how epic their songs are
Check out the song “One Year Of Love” not well known but Freddie’s vocals are great!!!
Great great song!! Love to play it very very loud !!
