      Queen's sound was so prevalent in this song. Freddie Mercury was a musical genius. He could play the piano incredibly well, his voice is unmatched, and his stage presence was Unreal.
      When my sons were teenagers, they introduced me to Queen. I have never regretted their music is fantastic.

      headrushindi yessss! This band was years ahead of their time and sadly by the 1990s and early 2000 and here after people are using autotune in their microphone because they can’t sing. Justin Bieber and Britney Spears... all of them! Ariana Grande and Rihanna, jessie J and Beyoncé. & pink are some of the only ones that can sing.b

    This song is a masterpiece..not just the lyrics, passion in his voice but the actual tune of the song is so melancholy and almost puts you in a trance. I read that Freddie did all the harmonies and multi-tracked them. It doesn't get enough credit in their catalog. I was mesmerized and brought to tears the first time i heard it. The live version with just Freddie and piano is awesome as well but I prefer the harmonies added. I have also looked up on You tube instrumental piano versions of this song and they are exquisite...you can really hear the real chords and runs in the song. Never be another Freddie!

    Freddie died in 1991, due to complications from AIDS. Freddie could sing everything from Metal (Stone Cold Crazy), to Opera (Barcelona with Montserrat Caballe.) Of course the fact all 4 members of Queen wrote songs meant they covered a lot of different genres.
    Also, you might want to check out Freddie singing this live @Hyde Park '76. Just him and his piano, it is almost ethereal. Different to the studio version.

I alternated between smiling and being moved to tears...a strange melancholy feeling. Very few artists have had that power over me but Freddy Mercury is definitely one. How happy it makes me to see so many new fans being intro'd to this fabulous music. What talent!

    Queen. Just incredible every Queen song has a unique quality. They used the caesura to perfection in this song.
    "A caesura; a break in a verse where one phrase ends and the following phrase begins. It may be a comma, a tick, or two slashed lines //. In time value this break may vary between the slightest perception of silence all the way up to a full pause. Considered a breath, a caesura in music represents a similar break or pause. The length of a caesura where notated is at the discretion of the conductor."

    They say Freddy's octaves range where the best for a man they have EVER seen. The way he loved his Fans and could get a crowd to sing has never been seen before, and is still happening today even though he passed. Not to many bands are known world wide the way Queen is and loved the way they are. Every time there music comes on, every fan knows every word to there song. That's an amazing feat for one band.

  • @johnandrews3151

    This song shows the true depth Queen was capable of. No concert version can capture the real spirit of the studio version. It is absolutely the best ballad Queen ever did and can only be described as a musical masterpiece. The entire album this is from, A Day At The Races, is great through and through. Check out Tie Your Mother Down, White Man and Somebody To Love which was their only hit single from the album. Enjoy!

      I'm a big fan of Queen from the 70s.. I think Queen reached a true level of artistry on Day At The Races and Freddie kills on piano and vox here. I've been playing piano for 30+ years and even though this is a fairly easy chord progression for any serious musician I can't play quite like Freddie... no one can... Also a big up to Brian May for his amazing guitar orchestrations...

  • @atroticious
    @atroticious 5 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    If you like this song, I recommend from the Queen catalogue Nevermore and Lilly of the Valley - these songs are very short so for making a reaction, it is best to listen and react to both of them in one take
