If you want total rock Queen then you need to listen to March of the black queen and Sheer heart attack (the track, not the album). Remember that this is all Brian May, Freddie had nothing to do with the composition of this song.
People don’t realize that Brian May is a shredder. On their earlier stuff I’d say his guitar work was showcased a little more than most of their “glamorous hits” people usually hear on the radio…but make no mistake, the guy can really fly through the neck of a guitar and he is one of these most accurate guitarists I’ve ever seen
This was Brian's baby. Yes, Freddie sounded great on this (Brian gave him a great lyric too), but everybody shines here and the energy is infectious. The part where it's just drums and guitar and Brian kicks in that EchoPlex just floored me as a teenager and I had just started my first band (I was 14 when it was released). Thanks for this reaction! BTW: Does everyone notice the whistling at the beginning is the tune at the end of 'The Seven Seas Of Rhye' from the end of Queen II?
Queen were one of the original Glam Metal bands at least in the early seventies, Songs like "Great King Rat", "Ogre Battle" and "Liar" not like todays metal of course but pretty heavy melodical songs
This song changed my life and this was the first album I ever loved. Absolute classic. Listen to the rest of the album and then go back to Queen 1 and Queen 2. They both rock.
A few years ago I was in a guitar store and the guy behind the counter told me that he thinks that Brian May isn't really able to play guitar. I didn't even argue. I just nodded, smiled and hurried to finish the stuff I was there for. Never argue with morons... Smile and wave. Smile and wave BTW. it's not just Freddie. Every single member of Queen has written hit singles. They were all fantastic and they all could play multiple instruments. Except maybe Freddie, who mostly played the piano (and similar instruments) although he has played guitar on Crazy Little Thing called Love despite only having basic skills. Please don't focus on Freddie so much, Queen was a band comprised of geniuses.
i hear/see a lot of deep purple, sabbath and zepplin sneer at Queen as if they are irrelevent, Queen can be mentioned alongside any band in rock history and are more versatile than all of them, sabbath could'nt come up with seaside rendezvous or good company, Queen could do anything, on stage they could play the most gentle accoustic or blow the roof off with something loud and heavy, as roger once said we liked to blind them and deafen them in the first 10 minutes 👑✊🇬🇧
Ooohyes, I love early Queen!!! Please keep m coming, Looking forward to more Queen. I suggest Stone cold crazy Live at the Rainbow. Or some darker and later song, I suggest Innuendo. Freddie was very sick, but the lyrics damn good and his voice is so venine. Much bless to you!!!
The genius this time comes from Brian May....he wrote it ;) Furthermore.....Great reaction!! I love the channel....you both look like an aweome couple! And I love the girl's appearance a lot....with all the blue and purple and happy face :)
LADIES & GENTLEMEN IT’S BRIAN MAY ON GUITAR!!! I listen to this song several times a day!! I love it! Now you need to do DEAD ON TIME, GIMME THE PRIZE, PRINCES OF THE UNIVERSE, LIAR .... and the beautiful BIJOU. Dr. Brian May!!
Oh , you have SOOOOO many hard rock / metal songs to choose from , especially the first 5 albums , but every Queen album is sure to contain something HEAVY ! Queen has been my favorite for almost half a century .🤘
Brian until recently was doing Brighton Rock Live, (Covid only stopping him these days), seeing him held aloft in the giant Robots hand with guutar in hand was mesmerising, Frank the robot is on the cover of "News of the world".
One of my favorite album covers, especially the centerfold(so to speak) where the robot is reaching into the crowd. It's been the wallpaper on my phone for quite a few years now.🤘
@@frankroos1167 @Frank Roos I never even knew this cover existed til your reply and checked it out here on YT. Killer version with Ted Nugent on lead guitar, Rudy Sarzo on bass and Tommy Aldridge drumming for a Queen tribute CD. Lemmy and Bob Kulick are on rhythm guitar. Billy Sherwood produced it, right around the time he joined Yes. Thanks for the tip.
From the same fantastic album LILY OF THE VALLEY. It is a beautiful wee song and I think you will both love it. My father bought this album for my 19th birthday from a second hand record store in Dundee. He was a massive Queen fan. I may add I am 59yrs old now and I still get tearful at that little song. Love to both and the rest of he band.
Yes! Long before the term Thrash Metal is as even invented. Do Queens live performance at The Rainbow 🌈. You will be anazed!! Metallica covered it in 1990 and I believe they got a Grammy.
It would have been better to do the Brighton Rock from the album Live killers.. Bryan May is seriously 1 of the best guitar players ever. PERIOD. But all the focus is on Freddy in Queen. Let us all not forget that Roger Taylor on Drums and vocals and John Deacon with his incredible baselines are some of the greatest artists to....
@@RoverWaters Freddie did write guitar parts and some solo parts too as well as drum and bass parts. Sometimes Freddie knew exactly what he wanted before a single note was recorded.
@@cl8onj388 I actually do like most everything they did in the ‘80s. Personally I was never a big fan of the Miracle album even though it has some really good songs as well. And yeah, Hot Space has some very good songs. My oldest brother used to say all the good songs were on Side 2, but really I think it’s more mixed.
Great reaction! Queen did a lot of progressive rock in their early years, and their last album Innuendo is also known as progressive. They were a pretty heavy band at the time, although I would say they never really lost it, they always usually did different types of music, some heavy and some not. You guys should check out The March Of The Black Queen, it is one of Freddie Mercury's masterpieces.
Prog/glam/metal/hard rock...all done in the Queen style. No one sounded like them and they really outdid themselves on Queen ll, in particular. Probably my favorite Queen album. But Sheer Heart Attack in right on it's heels.
I am so glad to see how you both branch out to the inspirations of thrash and heavy metal in their youthful and clean inspired forms!!! Queen, Deep purple, Sabbath, Judas priest, Rush, and Iron Maiden were the push and impetus in this paradigm shift of the early 70s to late 70s. It took intestinal fortitude for these gentleman to forge ahead and tell the record labels "We know what we are doing" and we cannot be shaped to what Colombia, RCA, Capital, and Decca, want us to do. It was a non violent but powerful revolutionary path they hewed!
Freddie was indeed a genius. But so were the other members. All 4 had input into a songs recording (with some exceptions). Although the song writer would wield the most sway. And since all 4 of them wrote songs the recording studio could become a warzone. They would all fight tooth and nail with each other. But like true friends do. You brush it off and move on knowing that it was all part of the process of creation. Queen was especially guitar heavy for the first 2 albums. Then slowly started transitioning into more radio friendly music. But every album still had a good hard rocker or two. Brian was nicknamed the Governor by Jeff Beck for all the amazing guitar riffs he created. High praise coming from such a respected guitarist as Beck. Cheers!
Queen and Guns and Roses were my beginning with International music ! I thank about a video reaction of their music ! Brighton is defined London by Sea and is by far one of the Sunnier zones in all Great Britain and Ireland . Very tipical of Festivals around those areas . I have been to Brighton and is a delightful Town . This song is magic in some moments . Impressed by Mercury voice expecially at the beginning , sounds of May with guitar , rolls of Taylor !
I’m was supposed to see Queen and Adam Lambert in concert last June in Birmingham, England but it got cancelled due to COVID-19. It’s been rearranged for June next year.
If you like this, maybe check out some of the heavy songs from LIVE KILLERS, such as We Will Rock You (Fast version), Let Me Entertain You, Now I'm Here, Keep Yourself Alive, and Sheer Heart Attack. Other album tracks on the heavy side are Modern Times Rock N Roll, Son and Daughter, Liar, Ogre Battle, March of the Black Queen, The Loser In The End, Stone Cold Crazy, The Prophet's Song, Sweet Lady, White Man, Fight From The Inside, It's Late, Dead On Time, More of That Jazz, Dragon Attack, Hammer To Fall, Gimme The Prize, Princes of the Universe, The Hitman... Queen definitely had enough heavy songs to make for one great Heavy Metal album.
You should hear this one live, if you like this, stunning live. I'd say Live Killers or Earl's Court 1977... would love to see your reaction to that. Anyway, loved this one, thanks!
Yes!!! ... Queen at their best . You HAVE to check out Stone Cold Crazy, especially the Rainbow live version, generally regarded as the birth song for speed and thrash metal PLUS you'll get to hear Freddie spitting bars before bars were invented 👌❤ Great reaction again
An absolute banger. Stone cold crazy (you should compare the live version and the cover Metallica did). It’s Late, March of the Black Queen. Gimme the prize, Machines and of course a bit poppier but an amazing arrangement Hammer To Fall.
Queen’s members all graduated from British Art Colleges ......in many early Queen songs they used words I never heard from any rock songs pre Bohemian....their studio albums were too complex to duplicate live either because of vocal or instrumental parts of songs...because of this when seeing them live in the seventies it came up short of perfection....one example in doing Bohemian during the Momma Mia part of the song that was all pre recorded....Kenneth
When you say ''and Freddy says lets do this 'n' that'' Brain May (guitarist) must have written half of Queen's songs. You can spot them. They tend to be heavier. Surprise.
You guys should check out Queen Stone Cold Crazy if you are just used to their more operatic style. It the exact opposite. Thrash Metal at least a decade before that even existed.
Freddie was a genius but this was Brian May's song. Genius vocals by Freddie and genius guitar by Brian. Sheer Heart Attack one of their top albums. Killer Queen came after this song, which was Freddie being a genius for sure. Lol.
Your steve vai comments were amazing, please try something from Joe Satriani-Ice9, or Marty Friedman -Forbidden City or Jason Becker -Ocus Pocus.... cheers!
Freddy was great but he now gets too much of the credit since he passed and moved into legend. Every member was important. Example, this song was not the “genius of Freddy”. It’s a Brian May song.
Exactly, A lot of Brian's credibility diminishes for the sake of Freddie being a legend. He did a great job on this song, but Brian just killed it. Same could be said for Roger and John, they deserve equal recognition as well.
I always say "Queen consisted of 3 great singers and one magnificent one". Who's who is for everyone to decide for themselves. ;) I also think that all of them were musical geniuses
@Phantom Freeze Speaking of the “Freddy Simps”. I love how you cite all their weakest material....the 80s. The Bohemian Rhapsody film is the bane of all real Queen fans.
@@sergeinester6261 I guess sooner or later _ALL_ artists kind of run out of gas when it comes to originality & creativity. That's okay though. Queen packed more quality into 8 (or 9) albums than any other band(except _maybe_ Zeppelin).
They did not go commercial, music is always changing, they changed with it. They always still did rock songs well. Even Hot Space still has a hard rock song. Queen always experimented with different genres and styles. Even Queen II has 60's sounding pop songs. Innuendo is one of Queen's best albums, The Works is also a good album. Queen were always experimenting with ideas and sound, not everyone likes funk, R&B, vaudeville or pop but music does not automatically become bad when you add those elements. Hot Space for example was very unpopular, it was somewhat of a commercial flop at the time. But it was actually a big experiment and risk that the band took, people were burning disco albums and dance music albums at the time, there was a big movement against that type of music, so it was not done for commercial reasons. Funny enough these days Hot Space is Queen's 5th best selling album. There are a lot of people who love Hot Space these days, it is not my favorite personally, but it depends on which style of music you like. If you don't like a lot of different styles of music, then you will not understand everything Queen did. But on the positive side Queen has at least one or two songs that anyone can enjoy.
Queen was a damn good hard & heavy rock band in their early years
Early Queen just more rock. Should react “Stone Cold Crazy”, “Ogre Battle”, “Liar”....Thank you 👑
Yes, yes and yes
More rock and more musical intelligence and complexity.
Yes x 3......havent heard Ogre Battle in a long time...would love it!
Yes yes yes yes - Ogre Battle. In fact, just Queen II in total - their best album by far (imho of course)
And great King rat
If you liked this one, you'll love "Stone Cold Crazy", "Modern Times Rock & Roll", "Dead on Time", and "Sheer Heart Atack".🤘🎸🥁 All are hard and fast.
If you want total rock Queen then you need to listen to March of the black queen and Sheer heart attack (the track, not the album). Remember that this is all Brian May, Freddie had nothing to do with the composition of this song.
I love MARCH OF THE BLACK QUEEN
Stone Cold Crazy.
The greatest rock song ever made!
@@grandtheftmanualv945 hell yeah 🤘🤘
I just want the answer to my question, the part where Freddie transitions his voice from falsetto to chest, was it edited?
@@omundodosdinossauros6836 It doesn't sound edited on the album

Dead on Time!!! Insane guitar solo by Brian May.
The first two albums are probably the heaviest sounding Queen. They could really rock hard but they also were very diverse.
Brian May is an incredible technician. He is using delay on the guitar to sound like two guitars. Amazing.
Dude is hOt! I'm in love. heehee. Great energy and great review of a classic.

Queen Sheer heart attack was one of my first LP-s..In the laps of the gods another good song from lp.
thanks, guys! Such a Brian May song -(Roger also in there) -- Freddie got the vocals, but this was really all about the guitar & drums... :)
Probably the best lyrics of any song ever
The early live albums this was his guitar solo brilliant.
"Tenement Funster" from the same album, written by drummer Roger Taylor, is a really cool song.
From nearly 50 years ago....
Timeless 😀
you've got to hear this one live!!! the version on Queen live Killers, has to be heard to hear Brian at his ultimate best...

Yeah, while Freddie was a genius, it was Brian who wrote this, so your words relate to him in this case.
And yes, Brian is a genius too!
Listen to the Whole album It Is Brilliant
I think Queen is one of the five greatest band in history.... In my opinión
Beatles
Rolling stones
Led zeppelin
Pink Floyd
Queen
Ought to check out the Brighton Rock track from Queen LIVE Killers album. Extended guitar and drum solos.
The 1st 2 albums are pure rock.
So many great songs to react to, try Stone Cold Crazy off of Sheer Heart Attack, a prototype of a speed metal song
You really need to give a listen to Stone Cold crazy , by Queen it will blow you away.....
You guys really need to check out queen live aid concert 1985 it's about 25 min long but worth every minute
"classic rock analogmusic" for Brian May shirt
Queen II just like Rising is one of the greatest classic rock albums of all time.
It is the best album of all time I just wished more people would take the time and listen to it
Trilple A 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
If u go live show u going love it
An absolute banger. Stone cold crazy (you should compare the live version and the cover Metallica did). It’s Late, March of the Black Queen. Gimme the prize, Machines and of course a bit poppier but an amazing arrangement Hammer To Fall.
YESSSS to all the songs!
thank you i am back at school i am a 70s child
Dou you know the queen song innuendo? First Single 1991 of the same Album and one of queen best Songs

This song was a Brian May creation, not Freddie.
Sheer Heart Attack is best album from the band.
Truly appreciate you guys react to an early queen song from their third album. Early queen is the best queen.
Shear Heart Attack is a must listen to!
This is the solo May plays live.
Queen Guitarist, Brian May, a published Astrophysicist
I love the lady's review "Freddie was like do this for so many counts..." haha. Great stuff.
You guys need to react to one of Brian's Solos ... Budapest in 86 for example
"Gimme the prize" is a great heavy metal song, take a listen.
When you say ''and Freddy says lets do this 'n' that'' Brain May (guitarist) must have written half of Queen's songs. You can spot them. They tend to be heavier. Surprise.

Sweet - Set Me Free

Hey guys watch Baby Driver it is awesome how they used this song
From "live killers" is the greatest version.

Check out "Dead on Time" from Jazz some time.
Really early Queen. Sheer Heart attack album.
Yes please react to Natural Science from Rush or Stone Cold Crazy from Queen!

Queen was pretty hard rock in the beginning. They were often compared to Led Zeppelin.
Early Queen is a lot heavier. In the eighties they became more comercial , not necessarily for the better.
