Freddie is still alive in Britain's heart. We loved and continue to love the man. I miss him personally I never met him. I remember where I was when I heard of his death.
I grew up with Queen. Had their very first album. Was gutted when he got ill and his voice started to wane in comparison to how it once was. Still miss him and the band. THE greatest in my view. Freddie was and is incomparable.
72,000. Wembley Stadium's maximum capacity was 82,000 for a match, less for a concert because of the space taken by the staging. And yes, that total does include the extra people on the pitch.
I LOVE watching your reaction videos of Queen! You "get" it. Some people love the music and love his voice and love the band. I can see that you love the SOUL of their music. I'm trying to arrange a trip to see Queen next year. It will be awesome but I'll still miss seeing Freddie.
The very best thing about watching your FM/Queen reaction videos is that it's obvious that YOU actually "get" Freddie Mercury -- CONGRATULATIONS, YOU are blessed! Not everyone does -- some people may be true fans, and love FM/Queen music, but they are still classifying Queen as "A" great rock band, and FM as "A" great frontman -- ONE of the best, instead of recognizing that the original Queen was, and still is, THE best band, and that Freddie Mercury💃is in a class of his very own: totally 100% unique, mesmerizing, incomparable, unforgettable. Oh, and, as you and so many others are coming to realize, he is also addictive......😏
@@thetruthofit398 - Michael Jackson had massively choreographed dancers, Freddie had himself. MJ was a great showman as far as a spectacle, Freddie was peerless in having an empty stage and commanding it like it was million dollar Hollywood set.
@@handsolo1209 ahahahahahahahaha let him enjoy his time in the sun wowwwwwww, a new movie is out so folk love him, but mj the world over is know as 100 x better, not close, ask the world, mj eviscerates the guy smfh
Just think...those times, there was no need for back up dancers and screen backdrops or any additional sound effects at all. It was all ABOUT the quality and showmanship of the band. Freddie makes us all smile, laugh and yes, cry, but along with him there is also the greatness of Brian May, Roger Taylor, and John Deacon. Can you believe Queen never won a Grammy? That tells you how out of touch critics and record companies try to sway listeners to feed them money. Real talent is rare. A Queen ticket wasn't expensive, their records weren't expensive, yet they earned every cent and did so much good with that money. It was about the music and fans that mattered to them. ❤️💫
It's amazing how many people don't believe you at first when you tell them Queen did everything themselves - from instruments to the backing vocals. "Oh no," they say, "I've definitely heard a woman backing for them before." "No you haven't," I say, "That's just Roger fucking Taylor kicking all of the ass with the power of his voice."
He is the GOAT and can't be touched. Michael did his thing, in his way, and will always be a legend and Prince's musicianship is unmatched, but the love you feel from watching Freddie, the love you can see he had for what he did- it's on a different level than the others. THAT'S what makes him the best. The feeling you get when you're watching someone do something that they truly love and they, in turn, give that love back- it's a feeling that can't really be described because words aren't enough. He's beyond legendary.
Burt Macklin I agree with you 100%!! Michael Jackson, Prince & Freddie mercury Queen are all in a class of their own but Freddie Mercury is the top when it comes to a front man.
I've known of Queen since I was a child, and I've seen a lot of videos and heard a lot of songs, but seeing your enthusiasm and your joyful face when you see them makes it all fresh again! It's lovely to experience it with you!
Freddie is the greatest showman ever, and as a group Queen had the most talent and ingenuity since the Beatles! Truly one of the greatest British bands, all bands in human history-Only band, Ever. Where all four members were inducted into The Song Writers Hall of Fame. Just four artists who found each other
Greatest showman and the individual musical talents are highlighted in this concert: all singing, have production for concert that is album worthy. Amazing musicians
Shirley Muhleisen - Yes, all four were great. I noticed too, considering John "never sang" he seemed to be doing something with the microphone in front of his mouth quite often here!!!! LOL. His voice can be heard clearly and the bass at 5:00 is hot!
Freddy was a phenomenon but also the other 3 band members were incredibly talented musicians. The very best.. A once in a lifetime band. Love your reactions
Freddie is the man! The Greatest front man ever! Every front man to this day credit him with teaching all of them how to try and do it. They try to copy but can never replicate!
I know they say M.J. was the greatest showman, and yes he was an awesome showman loved M.J., but I still think Freddie has him. He just had a divine aura about him and touched peoples lives, he is still doing it 25yrs after his death, my daughter who is 16 is now a Queen fan. I think this band just genuinely loved their fans sooo much and put all that love into their show for them. I can honestly say this band would play with the same passion whether it were for fans of 50 thousand or just 50, they'd still give it their all. That's what I'm trying to say, you could tell their love for you as the actual fan was genuine and not just show.
I love the way they came out and “deaf and blind them” with there original early hits. Truly the best group ever and I never get tired of listening to them for 40 years!
Freddie was the ultimate front man. He could sing at the highest levels. He was engaging on the stage, and could always get the crowd going. His voice sounded good in gritty rock tracks, or softer melodies. He could write music very well. Most singers can do 1 or 2 of those. Not many are the full package.
Yeah I agree with your comments... I’ve never seen any better since... it’s a shame really...I’d love to go a gig and enjoy live show as much as Freddie Mercury performance ... in 2019 💪💪💪🍺🍺⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️🍺🍺🍺🍺🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 credit to mr Mercury and the rest of the band 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨it’s a kind of magic 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Freddie is the greatest showman ever!!!!! I love watching Freddie in live performances I can't stop smiling when I watch him. They are my favourite band ever period.
It makes me so happy to see someone your age, enjoy something from my generation. Just like my folks enjoyed watching me enjoy Sinatra or Elvis....Thank you for bring this forward for the next generation.
I was in that crowd. 9 years old, my first concert, on my father's shoulders. One of my best memories with him. Will never forget the energy that day. Thanks for bringing it back. Love your videos.
I doubt that you will ever hear anyone give a credible argument that someone, anyone is a greater showman than Freddie. I was fortunate enough to attend a Queen concert back in early1980 (I think...it was long ago). What I do remember vividly is how Freddie's presence on stage commanded everyone's attention. His voice, his energy, his obvious great love for what he was doing, his genuine affection for the fans....it all came together and it was amazing to watch. He is the GOAT showman! There never will be anyone as good or better than Freddie until the end of time.
They knew how to do it! Amazingly charming! Your a legend Freddie. Your words. In don't wanna be a Rock n Roll Star. I will be a legend. So you are! The instincts he had on stage were next to no one.
I am so happy you reacted to this concert. So awesome to see someone sharing in it. Freddie was a remarkable showman. He shared his energy with the crowd while running nonstop for 2 hours and keeping perfect vocals without anything adding to it. Sure MJ was a good performer, Price was a great performer and musician. But Freddie was his own show.
There are a ridiculous amount of bands/musicians I love but Queen and Led Zeppelin are equal top for me personally. Freddie was definitely the greatest showman of all time though. The thing is, he was so natural. No choreographed dance routines, just pure energy and talent. That's what makes him the best, for me anyway. Like you said, he's absolutely mesmerising. It's not weird for you, as a man, to feel that way too. It just means you have great taste and you're open and true about your feelings. It would be great if ALL people were like that. You've really put a smile on my face today and I needed it. Thanks so much. Annnnddd you're a Queen fan for life now btw 😁 there's no getting away from it once they've got under your skin. Enjoy the ride 💙💜👑
He is a great showman and the genius begins as he frames the music and sees the presentation in his mind’s eye before the performance? The music seems to be threaded in his heart, mind and soul. He, they are mesmerizing.
I am bias! Freddie Mercury was/is/will be the greatest showman ever! He still mesmerizes me to this day. Combined his talent, charisma on stage, and musicianship are at an out of this world level!! Your reaction to part 1 is awesome! The wonder and amazement in your face says it all. This is how I feel every time I see a Queen live performance.
Can I add. although Freddie is a legend, probably the greatest vocalist and showman we have ever seen. Queen are a band, lets not forget the genius of Brian May, 1 of the best lead guitarists ever. Or Roger Taylor , I don't think you could find a drummer with such great rhythm and unbelievable vocals too...he could have been lead vocals in many bands. Also, never forgetting the underrated and amazing bass guitarist John Deacon, a legend at his craft but happy to sit in the background and let others take the glory...a true hero. How many bands have had such talent. and they all contributed with songwriting. They have all written "classics" . So although I LOVE Freddie....I LOVE Queen more
Without a doubt the greatest showman EVER! I was lucky enough to see them live a few days after this at Knebworth Park, England and it was to this day THE best ever concert I've been to in my life!
Iv got this DVD the best thing about it apart from queen is all the cam's for each member of the band. You can select a mender of the band and the cam shows their performance on stage. Best wishes from Liverpool UK peace.
This is a great example why Queen is the best LIVE band ever!! Can't tell you how many times I've watched this, especially the first 22 minutes straight thru, & get excited every time!! And like you, if I'm feeling kind of down, a good dose of Queen fixes it every time!! Love your reactions!!
Of course Freddie Mercury is the best showman of all time. Each member of Queen brought something to the table and created perfection in their music but it was Freddie who sang and danced all around the stage and always sang live. Freddie Mercury also created the greatest song of all time "Bohemian Rhapsody" and Freddie Mercury had a way of making every audience member like they were a part of the show. Freddie loved his fans and it shows once he hits that stage and starts singing there was no stopping him.
Freddie IS, hands down, the greatest showman of all time! I love taking this journey with you. I love your passion for Freddie and Queen, and I’ve become addicted to watching your reactions.
SAME AS I AM 62 SOON ITS LIKE WATCHING MY BROTHERS FACE WHEN IT HAPPENED GREAT VEIWING TIMELESS BAND FREDDY MY HERO U TC JUDY FREDDY LOVES YOU HAVE A GREAT LIFE I AM GAV XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
You were correct. He is generally considered the greatest showmen of all rock. Watch his performance at LiveAid. Queen was considered to be not so relevant any longer because of the new 1980s music but he killed. He took over the concert and had everyone in the palm of his hand.
It's GREAT to see you become such a fan of Queen. People on TH-cam usually get into a few of their songs but it's rare to see someone take such a deep dive into their universe. More power to you. BTW, don't buy into the scandals about Freddie, watch The Untold Story. It's the most reliable documentary out there.
Yes he is... Even the late kurt Cobain admit that... Not jus Freddie Mercury but all the band member..One of The Greatest Band Of All Time.. But Freddie Mercury was The Best Performer In The World
Also, Queen wasn’t just Freddie’s backing band. All four were crucial to their sound, their songs, their longevity. None of the four, not even Freddie, was as great solo as they were together - and their great strength was that they all knew that.
I can think of a few great showmen in my time; Michael Jackson and Prince among them, but I would honestly have to say that I think Freddie is the best, if only because his showmanship was a mixture of stage presence, his interactions with the crowd and amazing voice, whereas MJ's was based mainly on his iconic songs, dance moves and choreography and Prince's showmanship depended heavily on his fucking awesome musicianship. All of them similar in some ways as they were known to be incredibly shy guys off stage....but whose personas transformed them into an almost God-like bravado while on a stage. I just think something about Freddie's on stage fearlessness and the way he could work a crowd, however, places him above the others....and this is coming from someone who is also a huge MJ and Prince fan. For me, Freddie is the best showman of all time.
the main difference is that MJ and Prince were pop while Freddie rock with great band members, the musicanship in rock music is completely different level, just listen to Brian´s guitar or Roger´s drums. I also think that Queen had better songs, because all 4 wrote songs in different genres. MJ had a team of writers and later on his songs became kinda formulaic, it was perfect pop, but too much peace and love, I guess :D
@@RoverWaters Your little Lol means shit when it comes to Queen, because they covered a lot of genres over their 20+ years together, not just rock. And just because you didn't care for MJ or Prince personally doesn't mean they weren't also great showmen. I'm not comparing them musically to Queen, I'm talking about the fact that they could all sell out huge stadiums and captivate audiences. Freddie was simply the best at it.
@@atroticious Prince was more funk than pop, especially his early work. Michael was pop, yes, but I wasn't even comparing any of them musically. Of course, Queen had more creativity in the band among the four members that put them on a whole other level, but they were also a BAND whereas MJ and Prince were primarily known as solo artists...with the exception of The Jackson 5, Prince & The Revolution or Prince and The New Power Generation. It still doesn't change the fact that Prince and MJ were great showmen in their own right. And Freddie loved both of their music, and he was a better judge than anyone. haha
You're spot on, JB. The greatest frontman in a world with great frontmen abounding. He could behead someone on stage and the victim would gurgle his thanks on the way to the ground..... while smiling.
JB... May I just say, it has been an absolute pleasure to watch your awakening to the band that is Queen. I am a 56 years old guy from the UK who can remember vividly seeing Queen for the very first time performing 'Seven Seas of Rye' on Top of the Pops (a weekly TV music show in the UK at the time) at the ripe age of 11 and being completely mesmerised by them and the song. Since that evening I was a complete addict. I was straight down the record store to buy 'Queen II' as soon as I could afford it and have never looked back. Following your own journey of how you have got into them has brought back many of the same memories. Thanks for that. I have subbed your channel. Oh!! And yes Freddie is the greatest performer/showman to ever front a band
No your not wrong, Freddie is definitely the best front man ever! No matter what anyone says! Queen wouldn't have been as big as they are if not for Freddie! And that's a fact! 🙂 There all amazing writer's but Freddie is the best of them!💕💙💜👑👑🌷😁
Queen is very additive, he is a true performer, singer, legend. Miss him!
WHAT A FOURSOME! THE BASSIST, THE GUITARIST, THE DRUMMER AND OF COURSE FREDDIE
Yes yes he his PERIOD!! And we freakin miss him! Love love Queen! RIP DARLING😇
Yes Freddie is the greatest showman ever. But the whole band is the greatest band ever. Four geniuses on that stage, not just Freddie.
Freddie is still alive in Britain's heart. We loved and continue to love the man. I miss him personally I never met him. I remember where I was when I heard of his death.
I grew up with Queen. Had their very first album. Was gutted when he got ill and his voice started to wane in comparison to how it once was. Still miss him and the band. THE greatest in my view. Freddie was and is incomparable.
Freddie put his entire self heart & soul in his music, yes he was the greatest front man ever!
And yes you are correct. Freddie Mercury was/is the greatest showman there has ever been
MJ is the only person I can think of that could come close which says alot.
@@ktpreciouscolors4118 MJ loved them; they had a mutual admiration; find the spliced video of them both singing; it's awesome.
@@ktpreciouscolors4118 Maybe Bono of the bans U2. The are so good also
a year before that, 90.000 people came to see a 100 bands and do charity. this year 90.000 people came to see queen.
72,000. Wembley Stadium's maximum capacity was 82,000 for a match, less for a concert because of the space taken by the staging. And yes, that total does include the extra people on the pitch.
He is still ranked the best front man in rock history!!!!! Love Freddie!!!

Without a doubt he is the greatest showman, lyricist, singer and performer of all time and together as Queen they blow everyone off the stage
nah mj eviscerated him
Michael Jackson is probably his only peer. Freddie don't moonwalk.

I was there. THE best gig I have ever been to, one hell of a night.
Freddie is the best frontman ever, along with the band. I listen to them everyday-Queen fans are the best! ❤️🥂❤️🎤🎹👑
Freddie was in fact the greatest stage performer of all time. His voice will never be matched!
His voice was perfect, very powerful, totally unique! and he had the large crowds, in the palm of his hands and heart!
😃 Lap of the Gods... into Seven Seas of Rhye.... I love that they included these throwbacks from the early days. I love it! 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻

Everyone has an opinion. Some people don't think Freddie is the best Showman. That's okay. Everyone is wrong sometimes.
Saw them on The Game tour August 1980 at exhibition
stadium in Toronto and i still remember everything from that show it was fabulous darling😁😁😁😁
Freddie was the Greatest showman of this century his song Bohemian Rhapsody made it in record books as #1

Yes he is... Even the late kurt Cobain admit that... Not jus Freddie Mercury but all the band member..One of The Greatest Band Of All Time.. But Freddie Mercury was The Best Performer In The World
Also, Queen wasn’t just Freddie’s backing band. All four were crucial to their sound, their songs, their longevity. None of the four, not even Freddie, was as great solo as they were together - and their great strength was that they all knew that.
for someone to realize this they need years of experiencing the albums and the full live shows.
Most of these people are not true Queen fans.
He IS ABSOLUTELY the best singer, performer, lyricist, and showman this planet has ever seen. Love your reaction!!!!
Yes, he is the Greatest Showman of all time !!!
You're not wrong: Freddie is the greatest showman ever. He wasn't just a great musician and a singer, he was the best performer.
I can think of a few great showmen in my time; Michael Jackson and Prince among them, but I would honestly have to say that I think Freddie is the best, if only because his showmanship was a mixture of stage presence, his interactions with the crowd and amazing voice, whereas MJ's was based mainly on his iconic songs, dance moves and choreography and Prince's showmanship depended heavily on his fucking awesome musicianship. All of them similar in some ways as they were known to be incredibly shy guys off stage....but whose personas transformed them into an almost God-like bravado while on a stage. I just think something about Freddie's on stage fearlessness and the way he could work a crowd, however, places him above the others....and this is coming from someone who is also a huge MJ and Prince fan. For me, Freddie is the best showman of all time.
Lol this is Queen and its about Rock music!
What you mentioned are peanuts...
the main difference is that MJ and Prince were pop while Freddie rock with great band members, the musicanship in rock music is completely different level, just listen to Brian´s guitar or Roger´s drums. I also think that Queen had better songs, because all 4 wrote songs in different genres. MJ had a team of writers and later on his songs became kinda formulaic, it was perfect pop, but too much peace and love, I guess :D
@@RoverWaters Your little Lol means shit when it comes to Queen, because they covered a lot of genres over their 20+ years together, not just rock. And just because you didn't care for MJ or Prince personally doesn't mean they weren't also great showmen. I'm not comparing them musically to Queen, I'm talking about the fact that they could all sell out huge stadiums and captivate audiences. Freddie was simply the best at it.
@@Chinachik dumbo Queen live is pure rock! the rest is shit nothing compares to a live rock performance.
And the band is called Queen ...not Freddie.
@@atroticious Prince was more funk than pop, especially his early work. Michael was pop, yes, but I wasn't even comparing any of them musically. Of course, Queen had more creativity in the band among the four members that put them on a whole other level, but they were also a BAND whereas MJ and Prince were primarily known as solo artists...with the exception of The Jackson 5, Prince & The Revolution or Prince and The New Power Generation. It still doesn't change the fact that Prince and MJ were great showmen in their own right. And Freddie loved both of their music, and he was a better judge than anyone. haha
I think he is. I totally agree. I love watching Queen. Live is the best.
Great reaction to a truly amazing band . All 4 were top of their game . Legends all 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Freddie was THE GREATEST and always will be. I saw them first hand so I speak from experience.
He is the greatest and his love for the fans and music is unstoppable! Nobody can top him!!
Freddie wanted to give his fans an experience not just a concert. He gave his all at EVERY show EVERY time!
You have inspired me to break out my dvd of that concert and watch it again. F yeah
Freddie was a gift from above and he mesmerized all of us. You're not weird at all.
Best frontman of all-time!!!!!!!!
THE GREATEST!!!!!!!!!!
You are so correct Freddie Mercury is/was and always will be the GREATEST showman, frontman and singer of all TIME!
i´m so glad you did this. i was one of the suggesters a while back. just imagine: this is only 4 people playin!
You're spot on, JB. The greatest frontman in a world with great frontmen abounding. He could behead someone on stage and the victim would gurgle his thanks on the way to the ground..... while smiling.
Yes, Freddie was the best showman, ever!! He is so missed, but thank goodness, there is a 'you tube'.XO
JB... May I just say, it has been an absolute pleasure to watch your awakening to the band that is Queen. I am a 56 years old guy from the UK who can remember vividly seeing Queen for the very first time performing 'Seven Seas of Rye' on Top of the Pops (a weekly TV music show in the UK at the time) at the ripe age of 11 and being completely mesmerised by them and the song. Since that evening I was a complete addict. I was straight down the record store to buy 'Queen II' as soon as I could afford it and have never looked back. Following your own journey of how you have got into them has brought back many of the same memories. Thanks for that. I have subbed your channel.
Oh!! And yes Freddie is the greatest performer/showman to ever front a band
There will never be a showman like Freddie. Not ever.
No your not wrong, Freddie is definitely the best front man ever! No matter what anyone says! Queen wouldn't have been as big as they are if not for Freddie! And that's a fact! 🙂 There all amazing writer's but Freddie is the best of them!💕💙💜👑👑🌷😁
