I think this song just fits Freddie's entire life. He pretended to be what others wanted him to be, and he was ready to just be who he was. There was always this duality in almost every aspect of his life, even with those closest to him. His closest circle has always said that NO ONE ever knew the true Freddie. This song expresses this so deeply.❤
We know that Freddie was a great among singers and front men, but the video also shows what a great sense of humor he had. He certainly was not afraid to poke fun at himself - a sign of a man confident in his abilities.
I'll tell you what, every time that last line "pretend that you're, still around" where he really carries the notes, that always sends chills through me, a lot of people don't realise he could hit notes as high as that and don;t notice it because of the rasp and richness of his voice, but its truly astonishing, and yes, he knew how well this song fir him personally, not just with the music and putting on a charade publicly as the "arrogant confident frontman" with him being shy and a truly loving, caring and generous person, but also the loneliness he had and the fact he had to "pretend" growing up knowing full well he was different and the fact he had to hide his sexuality for so many years. He was the great pretender , but we love him for who he was in every aspect, the frontman who was a legend whilst alive, who's pretty much literally worshipped as a god now, but also of the tender, caring human behind the mask of the show, the person that loved and cared for his family and friends unconditionally. PS, both my parents got to see Queen live, my mum in 77 and again in 80 i think, and my dad in 86 at their last ever show at Knebworth, my dad never got to meet Freddie personally, but on both occasions of my mum going to see them, she met him, and she says, she's never seen someone so beautiful, not just his physical looks, but she said you could feel the love he had for his fans, he was truly humbled and forever grateful to every single one of his fans for showing their support, even though he'd never truly let on how much he cared, that if you met him, you'd know instantly that he truly did. Sadly i was just under a year old when he passed away, but I was raised listening to them and the stories my mum ad dad had of their concerts, which i'll be eternally grateful for.
Great video from you guys!
Love from the UK!
I totally agree with you!!! Best part of the song is that last verse.
That is very true. Especially about Freddie hitting high notes. His voice was rich with a darker tone then most tenors in popular music. Therefore people often realize how high he sang.
The 3rd one is an actor who was a close friend of Freddie's; Peter Straker.
Also a singer.
Why so serious? Always watch Freddie with a twinkle in your eyes 😉
Always lol, however I do have to keep a professional look to whichever video goes out as well.
That voice is just so great.
Yes, Roger was a beautiful young man and now he is a distinguished older gentleman.
This song was meant to have ended up on a covers album which ended up getting scrapped because he ended up doing the "Barcelona" album. Freddie was approached to appear in "Phantom of the opera" musical, Freddie was reported to have done a demo for that song which was going on the album, I hope its true and will surface one day. Peter Straker is a fabulous singer, checkout some of his singles, "Heart be still" is great. Please check out some of Brian May's solos, "Ressurection" is a guitar extravaganza.
I tell you what, as a fan of 50s music from way back, it's really hard to compare the two. I absolutely love the original, but I'm such a massive Queen and Freddie fan, that I adore this cover also. Such a great tune, brilliantly performed in both versions :)
Peter Straker Roger Taylor and our Freddie 😂😂 you should check out behind the scenes definitely you'll laugh
This song was covered by at least a dozen other bands, including Roy Orbison, Pat Boone, Righteous Brothers and an acoustic version by George Harrison. It was also the inspiration for the title of one of my favorite bands “The Pretenders” with Chrissie Hynde.
Hey Jude , funny story about Chrissie. She lived just down the street from my parents in Akron, Ohio. During the summers, she worked the concession stand at our area concert venue, Blossom Music Center, so she could meet the stars!
lyricl1 That’s cool! I saw them in concert in college in 1979, I think. I’ve seen over 50 bands, and get confused sometimes. Old age! She’s now touring with Journey. I live near Springsteen & Bon Jovi. I took my son to Bruce’s farm on Halloween many moons ago (he’s now 22). He & Patty answered the door themselves. Unfortunately, Bon Jovi just put his NJ house up for sale. First, he campaigned to elect our horrible Governor, who continues to raise our taxes. Now he’s selling because the taxes are too high. Go figure. I wish that the entertainment industry would stay out of politics. Thanks for your story!
Lovely lady #3 was actor/singer Peter Straker.
Great video!! I love the fact he uses snippets of previous video's again. What an amazing artist.....
Great show everyone! Courtney, your reaction and insight brings a fresh perspective. Looking forward to your next one.
Courtney, you are right about the making of this being hilarious.Freddie says that he looks like Susan Saint James as the redhead. I know she is before your time, but he is right!
Freddie's is great! The Platters was great also. They both have their place in history.
Courtney - you are fabulous . Sounds like you love Queen. Also, Roger is pretty for sure. I actually saw him live 2 nights ago - still trying to come down off that high.
3rd person is Peter Straker, was a really close friend of freddies but they fell out
The anime called great pretender has freddie singing this as their ed!
They used animated cats singing modeled on his favourite cats
Freddie as the cat nearly drawning but making it home
I was getting upset!
The other one is Peter Straker. An entertainer friend of Freddie. Bo Rap movie said they we mad at Freddie for doing a solo.
.but here we have Roger helping in this video.
Peter Straker.
Yes. ..Thank you..I did an edit.
Actually they were mad with him for doing a whole solo album, "Mr Bad Guy", this was a stand alone song later on so all was forgiven by then.
Roger and Brian did solo albums before Freddie...they were not mad
@@The1queencollector What are you talking about? There was absolutely nothing to 'forgive'. When they had a break from each other Brian and Roger both had solo work before Freddie did. So no, all wasn't forgiven as Freddie didn't do anything that required forgiveness. Try getting your information from sources other than a mostly fictional movie.
watch the making of The Great Pretender. its pretty funny
You all look very solemn. Are you not enjoying the fun side of the video of this song? And Freddie's performance, of course!
Amazing Freddie ❤
I honestly like watching this channel
Well thank you! We really appreciate your support!
Freddie Magic! Courtney does have good insite. You did good there Bass Player. Agree w. Dad, apples n oranges. Both really good tho.
Great job😁
Well thank ya!
Peter Straker. Freddie's good friend.
Awesome !
Thank you very much
Just amazing!! Please react to We Built This City by Starship and more QUEEN :)
1987 freddie mercury sang it and released in 1987
I totally get what ya dads saying!
Peter stryker
Ooo get it y'all!! 💗
Get what?
When y'all were dancing to the song duh!! 😁
Aww Brennan look what I found
Yeah?
The Bass Player Look how old this is!
Yup. Been a while
Can you react to Thomas crane he impersonates Freddie
Посмотрите ДимАша!
The first time I saw Queen on tv, I thought Freddie was really weird. 🤣 But I love the music. That was about 1974. 👑
Why what was he doing lol
*Enters another sarcastic joke*
😂
@@TheBassPlayer Sorry lol
Um dont bring her in if she's gonna talk during the video.
There’s a lot of videos we do talk during. We try to keep our comments to a minimum, but we’re just not gonna talk.
Not bad but I prefer the original no offense
Just listen to the song without the video. Freddy's voice equals 5 platters and then some. Unequaled.
Forgive me, but this is NOTHING compared to the Platters' original. Freddy Mercury can't touch the great Tony Williams.
Original way better,Freddie over sings the shit out of it.
Thats what he does i like both of them equally
