Isn’t this video just the cutest?! Such a shame Freddie was so ill at this point! He was in such pain here! But he and the band went through all this trouble just to give us fans the joy of seeing them do this! Rest in peace, Freddie. Freddie and Queen forever! ❤️
In this video Freddie was so sick that in between takes he could barely stand. He was in so much pain at the end. You couldn’t tell because he was dedicated to his music and fans that he kept going til the very end.
I think you're mistaking when he was weak with "These Are the Days" video! THAT's the video where he had trouble standing...let alone waking. Forget about him dancing and prancing all around.
@@Motown-1966 you're right. There's a video of them recording that and you can see him limping off the set. When it shows him off set watching a playback on the screen I think he asks is he doing too much moving around. Gotta love him ❤️
A must listen is "Death on Two Legs". Freddie is spitting venom at their former manager who screwed them over. It's from their 4th album, A Night at the Opera. This album ended with Bohemian Rhapsody.
I feel like we all feel like this sometimes, and the fact that there's actually a song / video to encapsulate that feeling is delightful. I think Queen have a song for just about anything you can possibly think of. Even their strangest songs are fantastic.
this is one of the 3 songs By Queen that makes me sad.. it is "happy" song but theres a sadness in it he was very ill, and he had only a short time left. that adds to the surrealness
Queen is well known for their incredible lyrics. But they are also capable of tongue in cheek. Songs not to be taken too seriously and enjoyed for what they are. Artistic expression one might say. As I have said before. Diversity at its finest. Another request for you to dig into early Queen. Cheers!
I love this video, too! It's so creative and even though Freddie was very ill during this era, I try to remain focused on what has been said about this song behind the scenes, because he was referring to some of the side effects of his medication and how it made him feel mentally, and even through all that, he still had the sense of humor that allowed him to laugh about it. That's what this song and video make me think of. It's like a way, even from the after life, for Freddie to give his family, friends and fans a reason to smile. :)
Innuendo is classic Queen in my opinion. Really captures the Queen sound and is one of my all time favorite Queen songs. But here is the crazy thing. As brilliant as Innuendo is it might not even make my top 10 Queen songs. Not from any weakness in the song. Just the depth of amazing songs Queen has produced over the years.
From what I've read, the pain and dealing with this disease was sending him over the edge. Thank God for his band mates, and trying to deal with all this through humor.
Thank you so much for doing this song, as funny as it is, it still makes me cry knowing how sick he was at the time. As others mentioned, he was pretty much singing about his aids-related dementia. It so sad that if it happened nowadays he may have survived. I lost my brother in law around the same time we lost Freddie, and from the same illness. Back then aids was an immediate death sentence. Freddie was in a category of his own, nobody will ever match him, he was a once in a lifetime talent, We miss you so much Freddie RIP
The prophet's song, drowse, 39, The fairy fellers master stroke, Liar, the white queen, It's a hard life, who wants to live forever, is this the world we created, Flick of the wrist/lily of the valley, you take my breath away............................................................................
With this song. It makes. Freddie. Look and sound. Like. He is his young self agian its almost like he went full circle in the end. Always looks amazing
This video was meant to be funny, one of the last appearances of Freddy Mercury on camera ("Those are the Days of Our Live"s being his last) The back and white footage along with Freddie's wild hair and heavy makeup was done to try and hide his illness, this video was shot in February 1991, 9 months before his death. The fact that he could even do this video was mind boggling considering how sick Freddy was at this point.
I've been binging on Queen videos. Now I'm binging on your reactions...love to see that smile on your sweet face when you see something that amuses you, which is often. And your look of wonderment at all that makes Queen so great. Welcome to the club.
Thanks for reacting to Queen's Slightly Mad. This was the first time I had seen the video in its entirety and first I listened to the song as well. I enjoyed it. It had kind of an eerie theme to it as Freddie played that slightly mad character reminding me of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
This was about Freddie's fear of HIV Induced Senility and losing his memories because of his Illness, the Daffodils part had something to do with the Daffodil having something to do with the fast approaching of Death
If you're interested in the specific songs they're going to play in the movie the list/soundtrack has already been released. Here it is in relatively chronological order (if they play them that way, although they might play them to fit the movie narratives rather than when they were written) and there is an x after the ones that you have reacted to already or just reacted to: 1 Doing Alright from Queen, their first Album, but written before Freddie joined the band. 2 Keep Yourself Alive, their first single, also off from Queen. Nothing played off of the second album, an absolutely great one, Queen II :( 3x Killer Queen, their first top 10 single, off of Sheer Heart Attack, their third album. 4 Now I'm Here, also off of Sheer Heart Attack. 5 Love Of My Life, from A Night At The Opera, their fourth, and best album, IMO. They play a live version; the live versions of this great song are more famous, for good reason, as you might see in the movie, but the studio version is just as excellent in different ways, IMO. 6x Bohemian Rhapsody, no explanation needed... I'm surprised they didn't play Death On Two Legs, also from A Night At The Opera, as that song is biographical and seems to fit the movie, oh well. 7x Somebody To Love from A Day At The Races, their underrated fifth album. 8x We Will Rock You from News Of The World, their sixth album. 9x We Are The Champions, which is almost always played immediately after We Will Rock You, also from News Of The World, although the version on the soundtrack is the Live Aid version, around 8 years after the song came out. 10 Don't Stop Me Now, a fan favorite, from Jazz, their seventh album. 11x Fat Bottomed Girls, also from Jazz, but they play a live version. 12x Another One Bites The Dust, from The Game, their eight album and first number 1 hit in the US. 13x Crazy Little Thing Called Love, also from The Game and the second of two number 1 hits in the US. Nothing from their ninth album, Flash Gordon; they're are a lot of fans of this album/old sci-fi movie soundtrack, me not so much ;) 14x Under Pressure, from Hot Space, their tenth album. 15x I Want To Break Free, from The Works, their eleventh album. 16 Radio Gaga, from The Works, and the only Roger Taylor song on the soundtrack, but this is the amazing Live Aid version, a year later. 17 Hammer To Fall, also from The Works. Their performance at Live Aid features quite a bit of their work on The Works, their current album that they were promoting at the time. 18 They also play a bit called Ay-Oh, which is the famous stadium crowd interaction that Freddie does. 19 And of course they play the Live Aid version of the title song, Bo Rhap. The movie ends on this high note (their Live Aid performance, this has been revealed already by many reviewers, so not mean to spoil or anything), rather than the more darker and depressing events that were to follow, so that's basically it in terms of their music, and there probably wasn't enough time to play something off of all fifteen albums anyway. 20 Who Wants To Live Forever, from A Kind Of Magic, their twelfth album. This was actually written after Live Aid, so i'm a bit surprised it was included, but it probably fits the narrative of the movie. Nothing from their thirteenth album, The Miracle :( 21 The Show Must Go On, from Innuendo, their fourteenth and last album with Freddie still alive. A very suitable song to end the song (assuming as i haven't seen the movie yet either). And nothing from Made In Heaven, their fifteenth and final album featuring all four members :( From the soundtrack, there appears to be about 9 songs you haven't heard/reacted to yet. At least in full as they played bits of some of their earlier stuff in the Days Of Our Lives documentary that you reacted to so far. Also, if you react to their entire Live Aid performance, that is probably close to about 1/4 of the movie or so based on the soundtrack and what we've seen in the marketing/trailers. But i don't know if they're going to essentially play the entire Queen performance at Live Aid in the movie and i'm not sure if it's better to have a first time reaction of Live Aid to be from the movie or the real historical event. The movie is supposed to be very faithful to it though...
This was always one of my favorite videos. And not just from Queen! I've always loved it because the guys are all very funny and I thought Freddie was really cute in it. It's also one of my favorite songs because I can relate 😀
I've decided this is my daily theme song. Being a mom and a wife, can drive one a little crazy at times. lol I'm glad to see you're back, and in a better mood. I hope things keep looking up for you.
Queen made so many wonderful songs and great videos. Some of my favs are "Who wants to live forever", "I was born to love you" and "The show must go on." Also "Innuendo" is a great song with a great video. A must on anyones Queen list. Frankly you can listen to Queen all day and always be amazed at the sheer variety snd power of their songs and performances.
His very last video was mother love. Brian may had to finish it cause freddie told the guys he's so tired he'll come back to finish the last verse, but never made it 😭😭😭
the music video for this song is as awsome as you😄 a little trivia: the song is Freddie singing about his illness. Hope you also get the chance to check out These are the days of our lives and the show must go on before the movie comes out:)
I really love ur reactions!!🎸⚡️🤟🏻 Please do Freddie Mercury- The Great Pretender(official video) and Freddie Mercury- Living on my own (official video) Really great! You also need to see the behind the scenes video to The Great Pretender man it’s hilarious 😂 and so the song is! The seccond one sounds very happy but if u listen to the lyrics and what he’s actually saying you get kinda emotional (I do) 😊
This was one of is laat videos he was so ill. There will never be anyone like him again. Freddie and Queen were a one off a kind band and singer. Brian May is one of the best guitarist to live.
Darker song and video but the more I heard it, the more I liked it, has a nice beat to it and feeling. Surreal but phenomenal 😌PS: Elton John was in the gorilla costume, just saying 😌The Video could be from David Lynch xD
Freddie was extremely close to death at this point was in unbearable pain by the end. He had to drink a ton of vodka to do it all but he pushed through that’s why I love Freddie
So much fun watching you react to all the various ways that Queen entertains. Please react to A Winter's Tale. Made at the end of Freddies life also and totally different
I'm so happy that you reacted to that vid. That video made me laugh when i first saw it, back then. (didn't know what would follow soon after) I found it so funny. I've been wondering what others thought about it. thanks.
thanks JB for sharing this video, Queen are still amazing, just everything about them is unique, and Freddy, well he was just wonderful.💞 speaking of going mad, please, please check out another UK group called Madness, their music is SO different from Queen's obviously, but great fun and I'm sure you'll love their videos particularly "Baggy Trousers" , "Shut Up" , "House Of Fun" songs/videos first, then there's plenty more after these.
Hi....so glad you reacted to this.....great song, even though freddie was so ill. It's one of my favourites and seems to get over looked......happy new year from the uk, by the way.....:) xx
Poor Freddie was really ill at the time, But his sheer professionalism and determination to see things through he gave his all for the final few videos from "Innuendo", These final few bring tears to my eyes but not this one as it shows Freddies sense of humour in all it's quirky glory.
Freddie was very ill at this point. He was in a lot of pain and his legs were a mess, to the point he could barely stand. He would have to prop himself up between takes and drink vodka to deaden the pain. His very last video was "These Are the Days". His last recorded song was "Mother Love". Brian May finished the last stanza of that song because Freddie died before he could finish the recording. You would never know how close to death he was when you listen to that song.
This new generation of music is unusual. Theres no real depth. It's all based on superficiality and sex. The older stuff would make you ponder deep thoughts. Awaken your philosophical nature. There was hidden meaning and it spoke to you. Not like today. I like alot of music today because its catchy, but I cant really call many artists. They are performers. Big difference.
Just as an extra comment, I can't recommend " These are the Days of our Lives" it always chokes me up and brings tears to my eyes it was Freddie (to my mind at least) saying goodbye, You can see how ill he was by the time he made this video but in true Freddie style he gave his all doing what he loved best entertaining us.
Interesting, I've never seen this or heard it before, so I got to react to it as you were reacting. Reading them comments, it's sad to find out that he was close to the end in this video.
and today´s videos have no humour! They have a lot of naked bodies, but no ideas and very little humour in them. Oh, please react to Spread Your Wings, Play the Game or Save Me! Great songs!
Check out this snippet from the filming of that video. Especially at 1:40 to start. Like J&M Reed mentioned this is the 2nd last video and he died 9 months later. This was filmed in February, "These are the Days of Our Lives" was filmed May 30, 1991 and Freddie died November 24th (6 months after that last one). th-cam.com/video/zjDMaBKqpPw/w-d-xo.html
@Paco Fernández Jimmy was a Huge Beatle fan. He picked up Lennons 3 finger ukelele fret style tha John used on his early track I Call Your Name , for that dirty sound.
See if there is a small community radio station near you. Go volunteer there. Earn a spot, and introduce this music to others of your generation. It could be a good start to something better.
In this video Freddie's being funny about his deteriorating health thats driving him mad. Its proof his greatness & using his tragic illness (HIV positive) to come up with something entertaining. He's such a brave great human being!
All Queen fans are slightly mad you're just like the rest of us I'm watching your Queen marathon but I had to see some of your other reactions while I'm waiting
As much as I enjoy Queen's music, unfortunately he is on record as saying he didn't want to go to Heaven because of all the interesting people one would meet in Hell and the song "Great King Rat" is pretty much a tribute to satan. I can imagine Freddie was going mad. It is so tragic as Freddie was a truly talented singer/performer.
Please can you react to Mother Love, it was the last vocals Freddie ever recorded, only roughly a month or so before he died. He couldn't even finish the whole song. He did the first two verses and couldn't manage doing the last one that day. He never got to come back and finish it. It's pretty heart wrenching when you suddenly hear Brian singing the 3rd verse, you know it's because Freddie has died. It's a moving end to a legend's life. The sped up part right near the end, is a short sample of every single song Freddie ever recorded with Queen speeded up. As you've reacted to many Queen songs, can you please do this one. th-cam.com/video/N3mq8P5I0KU/w-d-xo.html
Hmmm, about the video's matching the songs... perhaps you should react to Lover Boy by Billy Ocean. Great song, and the video, well, someone was smoking something....
Freddie was really rather sick with aids here. That’s why they made it this funny video with lots of hair, makeup, costume, and in black and white to distract from Freddie’s sickly appearance! Oh, my darling Freddie!! The video is still very funny and those vocals tho, amazing!! #VivaFreddie
Further to my earlier comment...trying to have people understand how good Queen was, is like trying to explain how good Bradman was to cricket. Words just don't cut it

In this video Freddie was so sick that in between takes he could barely stand. He was in so much pain at the end. You couldn’t tell because he was dedicated to his music and fans that he kept going til the very end.
Wendy Speener miss him so much😭😭😭😭
😢😢😢
I think you're mistaking when he was weak with "These Are the Days" video! THAT's the video where he had trouble standing...let alone waking. Forget about him dancing and prancing all around.
And still a hell of a voice!
@@Motown-1966 you're right. There's a video of them recording that and you can see him limping off the set.
When it shows him off set watching a playback on the screen I think he asks is he doing too much moving around.
Gotta love him ❤️
Freddie was quite sick when this was made. He was amazing to the very end!
I feel ya brother! They were such a talent! Words can't describe how brilliant they were. Best band that ever was and will ever come. RIP Freddy.
A must listen is "Death on Two Legs". Freddie is spitting venom at their former manager who screwed them over. It's from their 4th album, A Night at the Opera. This album ended with Bohemian Rhapsody.
I feel like we all feel like this sometimes, and the fact that there's actually a song / video to encapsulate that feeling is delightful. I think Queen have a song for just about anything you can possibly think of. Even their strangest songs are fantastic.
this is one of the 3 songs By Queen that makes me sad.. it is "happy" song but theres a sadness in it he was very ill, and he had only a short time left. that adds to the surrealness
I have run out of things to say about Fred here, I'm just gonna hit the like button
Queen is well known for their incredible lyrics. But they are also capable of tongue in cheek. Songs not to be taken too seriously and enjoyed for what they are. Artistic expression one might say. As I have said before. Diversity at its finest. Another request for you to dig into early Queen. Cheers!

Check out Innuendo. I bet it will go into your Queen top 3.
Innuendo is classic Queen in my opinion. Really captures the Queen sound and is one of my all time favorite Queen songs. But here is the crazy thing. As brilliant as Innuendo is it might not even make my top 10 Queen songs. Not from any weakness in the song. Just the depth of amazing songs Queen has produced over the years.
Pulsar77
Omg!! I love innuendo!!! It’s the best!!
Yesss! Please! It's a Masterpiece!
I agree, I see it as a follow up to BH, the lyrics are fantastic and so relevant even today
Love this song.
From what I've read, the pain and dealing with this disease was sending him over the edge. Thank God for his band mates, and trying to deal with all this through humor.

Queen: Keep yourself alive, Stone Cold Crazy, March of the Black Queen, In the Lap of the Gods, Tie Your Mother Down, Fat Bottom Girls.
Absolutely!
Spread Your Wings, Save Me, Play the Game, Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy
The prophet's song, drowse, 39, The fairy fellers master stroke, Liar, the white queen, It's a hard life, who wants to live forever, is this the world we created, Flick of the wrist/lily of the valley, you take my breath away............................................................................
My favourite song by Queen.
With this song. It makes. Freddie. Look and sound. Like. He is his young self agian its almost like he went full circle in the end. Always looks amazing
This video was meant to be funny, one of the last appearances of Freddy Mercury on camera ("Those are the Days of Our Live"s being his last) The back and white footage along with Freddie's wild hair and heavy makeup was done to try and hide his illness, this video was shot in February 1991, 9 months before his death.

What a wonderful bunch of craftsman - absolute artistry

If you're interested in the specific songs they're going to play in the movie the list/soundtrack has already been released. Here it is in relatively chronological order (if they play them that way, although they might play them to fit the movie narratives rather than when they were written) and there is an x after the ones that you have reacted to already or just reacted to:
1 Doing Alright from Queen, their first Album, but written before Freddie joined the band.
2 Keep Yourself Alive, their first single, also off from Queen.
Nothing played off of the second album, an absolutely great one, Queen II :(
3x Killer Queen, their first top 10 single, off of Sheer Heart Attack, their third album.
4 Now I'm Here, also off of Sheer Heart Attack.
5 Love Of My Life, from A Night At The Opera, their fourth, and best album, IMO. They play a live version; the live versions of this great song are more famous, for good reason, as you might see in the movie, but the studio version is just as excellent in different ways, IMO.
6x Bohemian Rhapsody, no explanation needed... I'm surprised they didn't play Death On Two Legs, also from A Night At The Opera, as that song is biographical and seems to fit the movie, oh well.
7x Somebody To Love from A Day At The Races, their underrated fifth album.

9x We Are The Champions, which is almost always played immediately after We Will Rock You, also from News Of The World, although the version on the soundtrack is the Live Aid version, around 8 years after the song came out.
10 Don't Stop Me Now, a fan favorite, from Jazz, their seventh album.
11x Fat Bottomed Girls, also from Jazz, but they play a live version.
12x Another One Bites The Dust, from The Game, their eight album and first number 1 hit in the US.
13x Crazy Little Thing Called Love, also from The Game and the second of two number 1 hits in the US.
Nothing from their ninth album, Flash Gordon; they're are a lot of fans of this album/old sci-fi movie soundtrack, me not so much ;)
14x Under Pressure, from Hot Space, their tenth album.
15x I Want To Break Free, from The Works, their eleventh album.
16 Radio Gaga, from The Works, and the only Roger Taylor song on the soundtrack, but this is the amazing Live Aid version, a year later.
17 Hammer To Fall, also from The Works. Their performance at Live Aid features quite a bit of their work on The Works, their current album that they were promoting at the time.
18 They also play a bit called Ay-Oh, which is the famous stadium crowd interaction that Freddie does.

20 Who Wants To Live Forever, from A Kind Of Magic, their twelfth album. This was actually written after Live Aid, so i'm a bit surprised it was included, but it probably fits the narrative of the movie.
Nothing from their thirteenth album, The Miracle :(
21 The Show Must Go On, from Innuendo, their fourteenth and last album with Freddie still alive. A very suitable song to end the song (assuming as i haven't seen the movie yet either).
And nothing from Made In Heaven, their fifteenth and final album featuring all four members :(
From the soundtrack, there appears to be about 9 songs you haven't heard/reacted to yet. At least in full as they played bits of some of their earlier stuff in the Days Of Our Lives documentary that you reacted to so far. Also, if you react to their entire Live Aid performance, that is probably close to about 1/4 of the movie or so based on the soundtrack and what we've seen in the marketing/trailers.

This was always one of my favorite videos. And not just from Queen! I've always loved it because the guys are all very funny and I thought Freddie was really cute in it. It's also one of my favorite songs because I can relate 😀
You’re my favorite person reacting to Freddie Mercury videos. You get it!
I've decided this is my daily theme song. Being a mom and a wife, can drive one a little crazy at times. lol I'm glad to see you're back, and in a better mood. I hope things keep looking up for you.
Queen made so many wonderful songs and great videos. Some of my favs are "Who wants to live forever", "I was born to love you" and "The show must go on." Also "Innuendo" is a great song with a great video. A must on anyones Queen list.
Frankly you can listen to Queen all day and always be amazed at the sheer variety snd power of their songs and performances.
Please watch Days of Our Lives. It was his very last video before he passed away and he actually said goodbye to his fans in that video.
I cry every time 😢💙
Such a hard video to watch. It’s beautifully haunting.
The last "I still love you" always gets me 😢❤️
His very last video was mother love. Brian may had to finish it cause freddie told the guys he's so tired he'll come back to finish the last verse, but never made it 😭😭😭
the music video for this song is as awsome as you😄 a little trivia: the song is Freddie singing about his illness. Hope you also get the chance to check out These are the days of our lives and the show must go on before the movie comes out:)
In every song when Freddie starts singing, you start smiling. It‘s just adorable.
James this is one of my favourite songs and videos. Every time I'm stressed, I always day I'm going slightly mad.
I really love ur reactions!!🎸⚡️🤟🏻
Please do Freddie Mercury- The Great Pretender(official video) and Freddie Mercury- Living on my own (official video)
Really great!
You also need to see the behind the scenes video to The Great Pretender man it’s hilarious 😂 and so the song is!
The seccond one sounds very happy but if u listen to the lyrics and what he’s actually saying you get kinda emotional (I do) 😊
This was one of is laat videos he was so ill. There will never be anyone like him again. Freddie and Queen were a one off a kind band and singer. Brian May is one of the best guitarist to live.
They looked like they had such great fun recording that video.
Darker song and video but the more I heard it, the more I liked it, has a nice beat to it and feeling. Surreal but phenomenal 😌PS: Elton John was in the gorilla costume, just saying 😌The Video could be from David Lynch xD
Julian what did not know that 😳😳😳😂♥️🙏🏻
Julian Elton John in Gorilla costume? what really? Suppose that doesn’t surprise me as they were very good friends!
Yeah it's hard to research but I heard it from a newspaper some years ago and I think even Brian said it somewhere, hard to find and no credits at all
Julian that’s amazing😂!! hilarious!
Oh I did not know that that that is Elton John 😀...thx for sharing
Love the Queen spree! Thanks for sharing your reactions with us.
You've made me so happy reacting to this song!!! I think you're the first of all the reactors I've been watching.
This song is great and very sad. It’s about how Freddie was losing his mind bc of the AIDS.
I LOVE THIS VIDEO
LOVE LOVE LOVE
Queen -The Miracle
Freddie was extremely close to death at this point was in unbearable pain by the end. He had to drink a ton of vodka to do it all but he pushed through that’s why I love Freddie
Spread your wings by queen!!!
I love Freddie hair in this.
One of my favorite videos too, and the proof Freddie was determined to work his ass off till the very end
So much fun watching you react to all the various ways that Queen entertains. Please react to A Winter's Tale. Made at the end of Freddies life also and totally different
I totally agree with you brother !!!
Yay! One of my favourites!
React How can I go on ( Freddie mercury and Montserrat)
amazing, bizarre things are so much fun!
I'm so happy that you reacted to that vid. That video made me laugh when i first saw it, back then. (didn't know what would follow soon after) I found it so funny. I've been wondering what others thought about it. thanks.
Yes u r right!
I love this video ❤️and the song
spread your wings. also quoted in the movie, and a hell of a song!
Another great Queen song you'll love is "The Show Must Go On". One of his last and one of his greatest.
thanks JB for sharing this video, Queen are still amazing, just everything about them is unique, and Freddy, well he was just wonderful.💞 speaking of going mad, please, please check out another UK group called Madness, their music is SO different from Queen's obviously, but great fun and I'm sure you'll love their videos particularly "Baggy Trousers" , "Shut Up" , "House Of Fun" songs/videos first, then there's plenty more after these.
I'm Going Slightly Mad ❤😍
I think this video fit this song. Even though he was very sick, he still that humor of his.
Thanks for reacting to this one. I hadn’t seen the video. Love it!
I'm so excited for the movie!
Beth Hart “A Change is Gonna Come” Sam Cooke cover live! It’s powerful and will give you chills! Awesome!!! She belts it sitting down the whole time!
or "I would rather go blind"

Soo glad you are going to the movie.... Good to see you today, brother! 💓
I LOVE This song, I consider it my unofficial "Theme Song."
Loving these reaction videos man, keep 'em coming. I recommend checking out "You're My Best Friend" by Queen if you haven't already.
Poor Freddie was really ill at the time, But his sheer professionalism and determination to see things through he gave his all for the final few videos from "Innuendo", These final few bring tears to my eyes but not this one as it shows Freddies sense of humour in all it's quirky glory.
Freddie was very ill at this point. He was in a lot of pain and his legs were a mess, to the point he could barely stand. He would have to prop himself up between takes and drink vodka to deaden the pain. His very last video was "These Are the Days". His last recorded song was "Mother Love". Brian May finished the last stanza of that song because Freddie died before he could finish the recording. You would never know how close to death he was when you listen to that song.
Another one I love is 'Don't try so hard' for different reasons.
Loving it
This new generation of music is unusual. Theres no real depth. It's all based on superficiality and sex. The older stuff would make you ponder deep thoughts. Awaken your philosophical nature. There was hidden meaning and it spoke to you. Not like today. I like alot of music today because its catchy, but I cant really call many artists. They are performers. Big difference.
Just as an extra comment, I can't recommend " These are the Days of our Lives" it always chokes me up and brings tears to my eyes it was Freddie (to my mind at least) saying goodbye, You can see how ill he was by the time he made this video but in true Freddie style he gave his all doing what he loved best entertaining us.
Interesting, I've never seen this or heard it before, so I got to react to it as you were reacting. Reading them comments, it's sad to find out that he was close to the end in this video.
One of my favourites but video scared me as a child! Try 'One Vision'
hahatoldyouso just gimme gimme gimme..
FRIED CHICKEN 🍗
One heart, one soul
*One sex position*
and today´s videos have no humour! They have a lot of naked bodies, but no ideas and very little humour in them. Oh, please react to Spread Your Wings, Play the Game or Save Me! Great songs!
Seven seas of rye.
I absolutely second this recommendation!!!!
genius profundity Freddie
Check out this snippet from the filming of that video. Especially at 1:40 to start. Like J&M Reed mentioned this is the 2nd last video and he died 9 months later. This was filmed in February, "These are the Days of Our Lives" was filmed May 30, 1991 and Freddie died November 24th (6 months after that last one). th-cam.com/video/zjDMaBKqpPw/w-d-xo.html
TWO Songs Queen Were paying attention to From the Beatles- which are the band that most influenced Queen, are SEXY SADIE- and HAPPINESS IS A WARM GUN.
@Paco Fernández Jimmy was a Huge Beatle fan.
He picked up Lennons 3 finger ukelele fret style tha John used on his early track I Call Your Name , for that dirty sound.
See if there is a small community radio station near you. Go volunteer there. Earn a spot, and introduce this music to others of your generation. It could be a good start to something better.
right on my brother
In this video Freddie's being funny about his deteriorating health thats driving him mad. Its proof his greatness & using his tragic illness (HIV positive) to come up with something entertaining. He's such a brave great human being!
All Queen fans are slightly mad you're just like the rest of us I'm watching your Queen marathon but I had to see some of your other reactions while I'm waiting
listen to Fat Bottom Girls and Tie Your Mother Down and One Vision (Extended Version)
According to Brian May, the penguin actually pooped on the couch during the filming. The scene was cut.
As much as I enjoy Queen's music, unfortunately he is on record as saying he didn't want to go to Heaven because of all the interesting people one would meet in Hell and the song "Great King Rat" is pretty much a tribute to satan. I can imagine Freddie was going mad. It is so tragic as Freddie was a truly talented singer/performer.
Please can you react to Mother Love, it was the last vocals Freddie ever recorded, only roughly a month or so before he died. He couldn't even finish the whole song. He did the first two verses and couldn't manage doing the last one that day. He never got to come back and finish it. It's pretty heart wrenching when you suddenly hear Brian singing the 3rd verse, you know it's because Freddie has died. It's a moving end to a legend's life. The sped up part right near the end, is a short sample of every single song Freddie ever recorded with Queen speeded up. As you've reacted to many Queen songs, can you please do this one.

I remember this is where he became really ill. He couldn't stand very well.. He was weak and frail. Poor man!
Hmmm, about the video's matching the songs... perhaps you should react to Lover Boy by Billy Ocean. Great song, and the video, well, someone was smoking something....
Freddie was really rather sick with aids here. That’s why they made it this funny video with lots of hair, makeup, costume, and in black and white to distract from Freddie’s sickly appearance! Oh, my darling Freddie!! The video is still very funny and those vocals tho, amazing!!
#VivaFreddie
Further to my earlier comment...trying to have people understand how good Queen was, is like trying to explain how good Bradman was to cricket. Words just don't cut it
