- The lyrics:
I was told a million times
Of all the troubles in my way
Tried to grow a little wiser
Little better every day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I'd still be where I started
Bread and butter for a smile
Well I sold a million mirrors
In a shop in Alley Way
But I never saw my face
In any window any day
Well they say your folks are telling you
To be a superstar
But I tell you just be satisfied
To stay right where you are
Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
It'll take you all your time and a money
Honey you'll survive
Well I've loved a million women
In a belladonic haze
And I ate a million dinners
Brought to me on silver trays
Give me ev'rything I need
To feed my body and my soul
And I'll grow a little bigger
Maybe that can be my goal
I was told a million times
Of all the people in my way
How I had to keep on trying
And get better ev'ry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I'd still be where I started
Same as when I started
Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
It'll take you all your time and a money
Honey you'll survive
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
It'll take you all your time and a money
To keep me satisfied
Do you think you're better ev'ry day?
No I just think I'm two steps nearer to my grave
Keep yourself alive come on
Keep yourself alive mmm
You take your time and take more money
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive come on
Keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive come on, come on
Keep yourself alive
It'll take you all your time and money
To keep me satisfied
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive
Take you all your time and money
Honey you'll survive
Keep you satisfied
Keep you satisfied - เพลง
I'm very proud to admit that I was present at that performance :-)
You're so lucky sir.
@@interestingthings8598 Saw them several times before that actually! Been following their career since the beginning but I pulled the "plug" when they started getting into that "Radio Ga Ga" bit...........could not stand that!
lucky!
I envy u
Lucky fucker
the entrance of john is so f*cking amazing

No it’s when the bass comes in
Melhor que essa só a do.show de São Paulo, Brasil 1981, um Groove de baixo esperto.
I love how John always looks like he's in the middle of doing errands. "First, I'm off to the chemist.Done. Off to the mechanic. Done. Gig with the guys....then it's off to the grocers..."
Harlow, that was hilarious!!!!
That made me laugh! John was awesome at that concert dancing around doing his own thing, while playing on time.
@@loz14 he is the best bass player. He doesn't get enough credit.
I think he is great!!! It took him awhile to loosen up and do his own thing and be comfortable in his skin!! He was very shy at 1st.
Kinda like Charlie watts just sits there and does his taxes
Agreed I always thought that. "Did I leave the oven on?" Look.
Damn in 1981...the camara were bloody great.
filmed on 35mm film... its even better than 4k when its just the raw film
i know right, yet people still film footages on POTATOES 😒
When an almost 40 year old camera is better than your Android
@@MarioHernandez-zc7dv its beats the ass of every smartphone in terms of Resolution
Yep
Everybody gangsta until Freddie puts out the tambourine.
💀
No sound like this in 2019, and never will be! Kind of magic!
Without any doubt. I am simply amazed at how much the technical support, and engineer of this video captured Queen at it's finest. Everyone from Freddie, Brian May, John Deacon, and last, but definitely not lestly, Roger Taylor. May God save Queen.
Music today is created by no talent ass clowns. I’ve had farts with more musical prowess than the muppets of today
Struts are close ish
@@_theporkchopexpress You are currently missing out on the greatest generation of musicians to exist - you just wont hear them playing 3 minute poop songs.
Guthrie Govan is the best British guitarist since Alan Holdsworth, but he doesn't play for money and ego - so you probably don't know who he is. brian May couldn't play on the same stage with him without crying.
you can say that...its a kind of magic 😌 (pun intended) i’ll see myself out 🚪🚶🏾♀️
that freaking intro, i love it!
I always hum it and then have to listen to this realizing it's not the proper song
Yup!
@@williamg209two Actually it probably is an early version of Back Chat which is a real song
The way John comes in on the bass is fucking amazing
Sounds like You Don't Fool Me
I cant stop coming back to this sick intro. Somebody... help...
Hi I have addiction to this intro..
Roger- ready Freddie?
Freddie- let's do it!
STEFAN ALMEIDA wrong lyric fred
@@kid2770 LOL
@@sja948learn the song freddie
Roger: Ready, Freddie?
Freddie: Crazy little thing called loooove.
If Freddie survived I'm pretty sure Queen would have evolved into a jam band.
This is such a great comment. And how sick would have they been with jams like the open and bridge here??
@FRM YT I doubt Freddie would ever have stopped writing
Deku when?
I would pay so much to see them as a jam band
@Deku yep... it's quite weird but yes
2:36 that sway tho. Deacyyyyy ugghhh ❤️
John Deacon himself is the reason why Queen didn't need any dancers XD
Noreen Jill Gallo he made love to the microphone. That sway is one of the coolest frontman dance moves ever recorded. I mean old school mustache ride! Hail Queen!
John Silva This concerns John, not Freddie
he is disco DEAKY
I wish I was that tambourine!!!
Lol
Like it rough?
i wish i was rogers drumset 😉
kinky
I wish i was brian's electric guitar strings
Roger was insane in this performance !
John Decon’s bass at the beginning is so epic! I love him!
1:23 Freddie has more talent in his chest hair than other artists have in their entire repitore.
Why did I find this funny?😂
@@turdmanjones59 Cuz it's true
1:41 what a drum fill! And 3:10 too!
those fills at 3:10 though
who says it was in 1981, it sounds better than 2019
qasimzack
IKR
Well, this song was made in 1973
Is it bad that my mom is older than their first album
FabiTheAlicorn My Mom is older than The White Album by The Beatles
John is THE dancing queen
John deacon bass insane, master.
2:36 john has activated snake mode
Jajaja
2:57 the moonwalk of john deacon
So glad you mentioned that!!! I had not seen it. Really special!
love johns bass on this one
THE BEGINNING WAS FUCKING AWESOME. DEACON TAYLOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Roger was super hot, beautiful and energetic that night... :) im in ❤❤❤
Like me
Since Freddie doesn't have more of Rog's "great sounding maracas" he throws the tambourine to the crowd.
please 💀
I wish he kept himself alive
Hand down best version of Keep Yourself Alive
Best perfomance ever, omg that entrance of jhon is so fkng crazy
After watching BoRhap at least 10x, and going down the TH-cam Rabbit Hole, I feel like I've been through a Master's Class in Music Appreciation. Damn...
Queen is good as hell, but don't become one of those annoying fans that the movie brought to the queen fanbase
DocDuck why is more attention to an incredible band a bad thing? Bands aren’t allowed to have new fans? Relax homie
Julia McElroy it’s great and all it’s just that new fans that listen to Queen only because of the movie end up thinking that queen is #1, like even better than the Beatles
DocDuck Don’t become one of those annoying gatekeepers. The band made the movie, pretty sure new fans were the point.
The queen love performance rabbit hole is my favourite
Shirtless Freddie is the best Freddie !
Muy buena intro👍🏼
John and Roger were just being crazy in Montreal that nigh evening
4 Great musicians but John was massively underrated
Perfect song for a quarantine
Bass guitar part in this live show is so damn good!!!! ❤
Roger's sound is so DAMN GOOD! He's one legendary drummer damn it
Best way to describe Freddie, a human adrenaline shot
This has to be the best version of the song
Nossa como o Freddie tava lindo e gostoso nesse show, e com certeza um dos melhores show da banda Queen
この曲マジでスルメすぎてヤバい
凄い好き
Finin amazing
Его Неповторимый Вокал. Вне Конкуренции Навсегда. Мы Все Ещё Продолжаем Любить Квин. Монреаль 81 Прекрасное Выступление Аналога Нет Этим Музыкантам. Огромное Спасибо Автору видео материала.
Que hombre dios mio.porque tuvo que morir tan joven😥😥 deberia estar aún vivo deleitandonos con su música😥😥😥😥
The vocals at the beginning are amazing.
Great tune man... I swear Queen fucking rocked
Magníficos, inigualables, lejos pasó a los Beatles y demás bandas dela época y hasta hoy ninguna banda se acerca. Queen por siempre
2:32 god JOHN
GREATEST. INTRO. EVER.
There will never be another Freddie 💔😭
It says I'll never be another Freddy
@@claudinewilliamson1150 nobody will but you can be a legend even without being freddie ;) (i will be a legend without being freddie ^^)
It will be another Freddie and that is marc martel
Pure human talent
The " Keep Yourself Alive" one of the best live performances by the Queen in Montreal. Freddie's improvisation, movement, vocals are incredibly energetic, and the stage almost explodes.The guitar solos and Roger's drum power are great. At 1:24 Freddie's tambourine is flying...Phenomenal!!! No words, so perfect! The inimitable Freddie Mercury and Queen. Still the best in the Earth. I love it!
Black & White Angel Yea, except they cut this short.
The best performance is Live Killers
Gods of music....🤩😻😍
I love this song and i love freddy..
I keep having to remind myself to breathe
Take off
I was told a million times
Of all the troubles in my way
Mind you grow a little wiser
Little better every day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I'd still be where I started
Bread and butter for a smile
Well I sold a million mirrors
In a shopping alley way
But I never saw my face
In any window any day
Now they say your folks are telling you
Be a super star
But I tell you just be satisfied
Stay right where you are
Keep yourself alive, yeah
Keep yourself alive
Ooh, it'll take you all your time and money
Honey you'll survive
Ow
Well I've loved a million women
In a belladonic haze
And I ate a million dinners
Brought to me on silver trays
Give me everything I need
To feed my body and my soul
And I'll grow a little bigger
Maybe that can be my goal
I was told a million times
Of all the people in my way
How I had to keep on trying
And get better every day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I'd still be where I started
Same as when I started
Keep yourself alive, come on
Keep yourself alive
Ooh, it'll take you all your time and money honey
You'll survive, shake
Ow
Keep yourself alive, wow
Keep yourself alive
Oh, it'll take you all your time and money
To keep me satisfied
Do you think you're better every day?
No, I just think I'm two steps nearer to my grave
Keep yourself alive, c'mon
Keep yourself alive
Mm, you take your time and take more money
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
C'mon keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
C'mon c'mon keep yourself alive
It'll take you all your time and a money
To keep me satisfied
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive
Take you all your time and money honey
You will survive
Keep you satisfied
people always say that cameras sucked in 1981 but..... this camera quality it amazing 👀
The camera was very good at that time but tvs weren't good so people couldn't the quality of cameras at best quality
holy cow!!!!! Roger!!!! The man keeps the machine moving. Never gets enough camera time!
I hope people can appreciate how hard it must be to sing to that rhythm and nail it!
Una de las mejores canciones del Freddie joven
Divine performance!
Brian: wrong lyric (thx for 127 likes never expecting this)
Fred
Yo thx 127 likes never expecting this
"Wrong lirics Freddie!"
@@Dirtcowboy95 "wrong spelling Felipones081095"
It might be stupid but I just didn't get what was wrong about the lyric, that it used to be something else?
Never heard a bad version of this song!
eargasm
An incredible version, amazing!
What a great song go Freddie go
This is the best 3 minutes and 34 seconds of my life...❤
"QUEEN FOREVER"

2:36 Hope y’all don’t mind me being a slithery snake.
Only if u dont make it look soooooo amazing
OMG DEAKY
oh my god i’m fucking crying thank you for pointing this out he’s literally the best thing to be put on this earth 😭😭😭
The only man singing half naked. The best
3:06 that's what I call power in the voice.
We'll truly never get another performer as great as Freddie. So expressive, careless and SO. MUCH. LOVE. he loves the crowd. just a pure performance from his heart. and Queen as a whole , holy fuck. god bless
I Love Queen 💖💖💖👑
Best version...
Энергетика
Зашкаливает
This concert was one of the best ever !!!........Luv u Freddie xoxoxo
Nessuno potrà prendere il posto di Freddie. Ne Adam Lambert ne nessuno altro. Lui aveva una voce unica...è e resterà unico. Un mito. Ciao Freddie.
11 years ago and only 1.6 million views and some guy screaming opening candy bags has over 100 million views
Roger tho.... ❤
Brian though....❤︎
Rest in eternal peace Freddie, stunningly good music.
Classic Queen! This is why I love them!

Это офигенно!!!!!

Petition to play this song in New York
Freddie no need autotune
Autotune needs Freddie
Yes sir 😉😉
Holy shit these guys are just too good. I have watched all their concerts on TH-cam and still they never fail to amaze me every time
Roger: "Well there goes the tambourine..Great- Thanks Fred! Maybe, its with the same person that got my maracas? Hmmm
Best bass ever! Deacy rocks!
Excitante 😍🎶
What an intro
I have to invent some new words to describe this performance. This is just impossible for a regular human being.
Ariane Sahiti Especially one who smoked so much, and Freddie never got out of breath. Amazing!!❤️🔥🔥🔥
@@patriciabilinkas3911 that is true 💚
Freddie chéri et l'amour du rock toute ta vie
With all due respect to Howie Morenz, Maurice “Rocket” Richard, Jean Beliveau, Guy Lafluer or even Nadia Comenici and her perfect 10 score during the ‘76 Summer Olympics in this very venue............
But THIS was the greatest performance in the history of The fabled Montreal Forum!
Don Davis I agree. Incredible place with incredible moments in history
I don't really think there has ever been a better live band than Queen (and ACDC is my favourite band)
I agree. And ACDC is my favorite band too. And Black Sabbath.
Highly suspect?
Beatles are no doubt the best live ever, look at Twist And Shout live.
Paul Mcfartney John Lenninson nah man no where close
@@Daniel-kx7ip Your wrong lmao.
Roger is gonnna wreck his drums omg XD
He had many kits.
[FTGS]판타스틱한 게으른 펭귄 : He's fantastic!!
Lol I drum like Roger
Queen - fucking phenomenal.
Time machine???
bukvalno...
Da..
Take me with you please! 😂😂😆😆
You already in your past life
