The studio version is a masterpiece with a stunning piano & harp intro. Check it out and you'll understand why Queen, splendidly, stripped it down for live performances.
Yes he wrote it for Mary who was his girlfriend before he realized he was gay. She let him go showing real love for him. He loved her to the end of his life.
For or about?
Freddie said that it was his love song for the fans....every time he sings it he points to the audience..have a look 🤩
@@josephinemonahan915 Google it he did not advertise who it was originally about, but of course he adapted it to the fans.
I believe he wrote this song for Mary Austin. The live at Wembley 1986 has a better audience interaction. My favorite rendition. You need to watch the Rock in Rio performance of this. The band did not know if the audience (between 250,000 and 500,000) would understand English. What transpired affected Freddie so much so that he had to take a few seconds to regain his composure.
Yes, it was dedicated to mary.
May's guitar solo playing is clearer and prettier in this version...IMO.
Watch ‘‘tis in Rock in Rio and see 250,000 in attendance sing the song to Freddie. It’s amazing
There is such a rich Queen history to follow. There’s a whole story to tell through many of the songs and/or performances, especially towards the end of Freddie’s life. I recommend that you get background information on the later songs as you delve into them. They are sad, but they also tell you what a strong man he was, in spite of just how ill he was.. and he was incredibly ill. He still managed to sing to his fullest potential and even left recordings of himself singing to leave for his band mates so that Queen could continue to go on, even after his death. He was a selfless, generous man who gave everything he had left in him to bring happiness to his fans and not leave his band with no vocals. Freddie lives on❤️❤️❤️
Some very special footage, this concert. Freddie was particularly pissed because the camera crew were always in the way and security told the crowd to remain seated. Freddie had to work extra hard to get the audience out of their seats. He always gave 110%. LONG LIVE QUEEN!!
Freddie’s song for his Mary Austin. So simple yet beautiful.
I suggest you check out this same song at Wembley where Freddie is conducting the audience as they sing and then check out the Rock in Rio version with over 350,000 Brazilians singing the majority of the song. Keep in mind that English is not their first language. Maybe put them on one video so you can see how different they are, but still magnificent. It really goes to show that they didn’t want their live performances to sound like their album. Thanks!
Checkout the Wembley Stadium 1986 version which I actually attended the concert, Freddie had a better crowd interaction,also Freddie was home in the Uk 🇬🇧, shout out to the guitarist Brian May he was playing a 12 string acoustic guitar, great reaction thanks 🙏
My favorite live performance of my favorite song ❤
Adore this song, brings tears to my eyes ❤❤❤
Rococo in Rio is the best one of this song. 250,000 people singing to Freddie ❤
‘39 is a fun song going in a whole different direction. Lots of fun live performances of that
There's a video from Sao Paulo in the early 80's. Queen were worried about whether or not South America would know their music. Well they took Love of my life to their hearts. Freddie didn't even need to sing. It's amazing to watch and to see Freddie's amazement too. Loving your channel dude
This song was written by Freddie, it is very elaborate on the album version and could not be performed live with just the 3 singers and just the three insturments. Fans kept requesting it live though so Freddie asked Brian if he would write a simple arrangement that could be performed live. So it is just brian on a 12 string and Freddie and of course the crowd. No matter where Queen goes in the world, the audience always sings along on this one. Even today, it is included in every Queen live performance and it is just Brian and the crowd sings. Toward the end, a Hologram of Freddie comes up and he directs the crowd and sings with them. It is always a highlight of the show for the fans.
Yep he wrote this for Mary Austen as stated above once they stopped having a physical relationship a deep an enduring friendship emerged. He left a large size of his estate to Mary,he said it was right because as he said had things(him) been different they would have married and she would have got it anyway
What a respectful man xx one vision please at Wembley 86 xx
Another acoustic song is "Is This the World We Created". They do a version at Wembley and later that night at Live Aid.
A must watch
Seriously, this whole Montreal concert is just amazing. They were at their peak at this time. It was the last time it was just the four of them, they later added Spike Edney to play piano and occasional guitar to give Freddie the freedom to engage with the audience
The Montreal 81 is amazing... but sadly on the exact date as the first concert Freddie died 10 years later 😢💔
Written for Mary. So heartfelt.😢❤ I Want It All is a great song by Queen. 🔥🔥
Songs very deep! Strikes my heart dearly! Yes feeling it also!
Should see Love of my Life Live in Río with more than 300,000 people singing. Btw, we all cry with this song. No need to cover your face with the footage because Freddie made you cry as well. He always loved his first girlfriend Mary and left her 70% of his estate. She was his support and by his side until the end. Watch the Bohemian Rahpsody movie already and make a live reaction to to it! You'll get a zillion views. RIP A LEGEND
I love watching Freddie sing live he sings with so much passion it’s so beautiful
You should watch the version of this song in Rio 1985. I think it will amaze you. 🙂
Yes, please ❤
Rock in Rio. Do it.
Yes, please ❤
Thats a must
Yes please do the Rio performance, or wembley 1986 performance of this song. He stops singing some and the audience sings it to him.
How can we not love this man the GOAT FREDDIE MERCURY ❤️❤️❤️. Thanks prada west . ❤️❤️
I love this version of the song!! But please- react to Rockin Rio! The crowd sings the song to Freddie! Around 250,000 people and they sing it perfectly- ever inflection of Freddie’s is sung-
I was going to suggest that you should check this one out! This song is so beautiful, I cant imagine how Mary feels when she hears this song even after all the years.😢
Yes!!! Totally agree!
It seems Queen has made quite an impression on you. There work will survive as a classic of.the '80s that can be rediscovered over and over. I just love the Freddie strut...
Loved it, try One Vision live, great reactionx
🎸 Beautiful song by Queen 🩵⚘️
You need to listen to love of my life rock in Rio and live at Wembley
This song has a long and storied history. The studio cut is very different as it’s a lush, piano based song that has an orchestral feel to it.
Written by Freddie, he & Brian decided to strip it down to just his voice & Brian’s 12 string. The result is magic & most performances became the crowd singing to Freddie rather than him delivering the lyrics.
This particular performance has them both performing at their absolute best.
❤❤❤
Try watching this same song live at rock and rio
For another “super deep” song that is acoustic, check out “Is This The World We Created” which is also just Freddie and Brian. They performed this at the end of Live Aid, there’s also a live versions Rio and Budapest.
you heard the audience sing along to Love Of My Life--- BUT-- you should listen to the Brazil audience sing along to it knowing that their native language is Portuguese. Let us know which one you think is better.
I love this song ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Actually, John Reid said Freddie told him he wrote this for David Mines whom he left Mary for.
Yay Finally! Great reaction as usual my friend and Peace out 🙏 ✌️ ☮️BTW the video is blocking your face in the first half of the video 😂
You should react to this song in Rock in Rio. 240,000 people singing this with Freddie directing, it's amazing!
Checkout the 1986 Wembley version of Love Of My Life,the British crowd always has a special relationship with Queen and Freddie had a phenomenal connection with them, I attended the 1986 concerts, shoutout to the pianist in this performance Brian May he was spectacular playing the 12 string acoustic guitar, great reaction thanks 🙏
Please listen to the official video of 'Love of my Life". Freddie on piano, also Brian who had learned and played harp for it. It's absolutely beautiful, my favorite version - in fact felt sorry for Freddie when first hearing it like this...But, Freddie has only insisted 'don't make my music boring'.
Brian May still doing this version with audience at concerts❤
Queen are the best.
❤❤❤❤❤ queen i love you freddy mequrie
Amazing song love ❤😂
You need to watch the movie Bohemian Rhapsody, it's not exactly the right timelines but it's really good. It won all the awards.
You will love the ‘86 Wembley concert! Great reaction and love your channel.
Thanks, Prada - Brian on that 12-string.. genius, and of course Freddie is astonishing as always... much appreciated! (p.s. I know you love the live stuff, but the album version of this is also worth a listen.. it's the original concept.. piano-based with lots of harmonies.. oh, and Brian plays the HARP.. lol)
This is the most intimate live version, but I prefer the Wembley 86 performance.
You want them live? Check out "Queen - One Vision Documentary" It's them in the studio (over several days) interacting and writing/playing a song together. It's not very long...about 19 minutes since it's edited, but it really shows them working together. There are even short interviews.
Of course the actual song is great too....that one I'd do the official cuz it's a fun video.
According to the book QUEEN ALL THE SONGS (The story behind every track) written by Benoit Clerc, John Reid the group’s manager, said that Freddie wrote the song for David Minns. Freddie was dating Minns, as his romantic relationship with then girlfriend Mary Austin, was ending. IMO, the song was inspired by Mary Austin. Regardless of who served as the inspiration, it is widely agreed that Mary was one of the great loves of Freddie’s life. The pair remained close, and Mary inherited most of Freddie’s Estate & property.
This is a song for Mary Austin. Freddie's longtime fiancee and girlfriend for life. Freddie told her he was Gay and they broke their engagement. He loved her always and left her his Estate when he died 11/24/1991. RIP FREDDIE MERCURY 1946-1991 🎤🎹🎵🎸🥁🎸
I think you would appreciate “Tear it up” live 1984.
Freddie wrote this quite some time after he told his ex girlfriend he was gay .Doesn't make sense that he wrote it for her she didn't break his heart.
Wembley version better and in rio crazy
As much as this concert is perfect, I really don't think this performance was his best. Amazing, yes. But just for yourself sometime I suggest you watch it at Wimbledon.
Rock in rio would have been a better choice!
Hubiera sido mucho mejor una versión con Freddie y su piano.
Bleh. Montreal again. This at Wembley or Rio is a thing to see. Montreal had the dullest crowd in the history of the world (the Queen live world anyway). And a side note: if you ever do Dragon Attack live, please, for the love of God, do the one at Milton Keynes, NOT Montreal.
I always say the same exact thing. Rock in Rio is the only one to watch. I saw them in Puebla Mexico in 1981, and had the same experience.
Somebody to Love at Milton Keynes is also better than montreal.
You surely know why the crowd in Montreal was so quiet... but because of that we got Freddie singing the whole song so beautifully... I love ALL versions of that song. ❤
@@iris67si He did Dragon Attack because I asked for it a couple of weeks ago. The one at Milton keynes.
@@proofprof50 I know. I was answering that bleh Montreal comment 😅 ....
This is a great song, this is a great show. However, I think this is my least favourite version live. This is an audience participation song, Freddie normally stops singing and lets the crowd take over. He doesn't here because the crowd doesn't sing. Their audio has been added in post. For me, the best version is Rock in Rio. 250,000 people singing to Freddie.
❤❤❤
