This was written by Freddie and Roger. The Spanish guitar is Steve Howe (Yes Band) playing along with Brian. This is one of Queen's masterpieces, in my opinion, the switch-ups are perfection. The video won the award for "Most Creative Music Video" the year it was released.
This is one of their masterpieces! Yes, Queen were ahead of their time. This album has several gems on it worth checking out. Thank you and very much appreciated. The guitar solo in the middle was done by Steve Howe of the band Yes. Headlong, Breakthru are others you need to check out by them.
Freddie knew he was terminally ill and he is pondering his own life and of the foibles of the human race showing both the good and the bad of which we are capable. Dancing one minute and fighting the next. To me the jesters represent human folly. "Why we live according to race, colour or creed, why we rule by blindness or pure greed, our lives dictated by tradition and superstition". In spite of the bad, he says we still have hope, we'll keep on trying. "If there's a god or any kind of justice under the sky, if there's a point, a reason we live or die, if there's an answer to the questions we're bound to ask, show yourself, destroy our fears, release your mask". He asks, don't take offence at my innuendo...questioning something negatively. The caricature of each member is done as if by a favourite artist. This is as much a classic as "Bohemian Rhapsody", perhaps more so, because of its message.
This for me is Queen's most powerful track ever, in its meaning, its music and Freddie's powerful vocals. This song is the finest example of everything that made Queen great.
Have a listen to March of the Black Queen - it's an early 70's precursor to Bo Rhap and Innuendo. There's no full live version, but the lyric video is amazing, because it's an amazing song. I always think it's like the inside of a teenage boy's head!!
Not Dr Sir Brian playing the Spanish part, and it was his 77th birthday a couple of days ago and will Roger 75th birthday tomorrow 26th July, they have something on the radio celebrating both birthday's there's a link on Queen social media. This was one of the last songs Freddie recorded, a lot of the video has meaning, it's the mistakes of the past and how things were ruined by certain things. They came up with this and recorded it as live in the studio they had in Montreux, believe or not this came from a jam session
Loved your reaction! This song is so great! I’m not sure if you have heard there have been a couple of Queen songs released in more recent times that had never been heard. I think you would really love “face it alone” and “let me in your heart again”. Both amazing songs, and Freddie’s vocals and beautiful and haunting,
A masterpiece on a par with March of the Black Queen and BoRhap. He was months from his death and did this. We can't know where he would have gone, but he was far from done artistically and the world lost all that might have come.
Did you know that Lady Gaga chose her stage name after the Queen song "Radio Gaga" ??? It would be interesting to react more often to Gaga's songs cause she has been influenced by so many artists, including Queen ! More reactions videos of Bruno Mars and Dua Lipa too please. Also very talented artists !
Great to see you vack,if you cover this album you will be the first reactor to do the whole album. He had to sit throughout the singing on the album,he gad kist most of his right foot, months away from the end he was determined to work until ge could sing no more. After the album was completed they boys though there might be a rest 12:05 because they knew this was their final one , Freddie gad other ideas. With a drun machine he developed new vocals,brought them to the group abd asked for more. He sang each one 3 times in varying ways. This was so the band could finish them off. Put simply he knew he would be dead by the time they had complete them but he wanted to leave as much as he could for them. His final song Mother Love is heartbreaking,he couldnt finish it,a few year after Brian sang the last verse. As he could no linger sing and rapidly loosing his sight he stopped all the meds except pain reliefand with dignity ge slipped away. 😢 He was so brave, I have been a fan since they were formed, because Queen wouldnt stay in any musical box the critics seriously disliked them but heir concern( the band) was do the fans want us,they had such love for the fans, Freddie showed this by dispite medical advice and how clise to death he was he wannted to do a video of their last song These are the days of our lives,he didnt want the fabs last image of him as a animation. Freddie is such an inspiration, I'm facibg limited time due to my heart,i hope i can be as dignified as he. Dont try so hard is a great tune from this album, advice to those he loved. Also the Show must go on,such notes in this song 😮. wow this song is permissions and instruction , you'll see what i mean Must stop rambling, love you Instergram also,you make me think. Blessings from England xx

I’ve always considered Bohemian Rhapsody and Innuendo as the bookends to Freddie’s amazing career
@@karenj3611 that's a common observation. I agree with it.
A Masterpiece!!!

Your comment is perfect. Thank you for putting into words my thoughts as I listened to this masterpiece.

Name of the genre is Queen. 😁
@@andreakormosnekacso4804 yessssss! 😁😁😁

btw John Deacon was the Picasso image, Roger was Jackson Pollock, Freddie was Leonardo da Vinci, and Brian was Victorian etchings x
Thank you Patrick this was another masterpiece from Queen they had so much talent in one band the lyrics are so true take care x x

Much Respect, Beautiful Insight, and Totally Agree ❤

I agree 100%
Once you've said 'Queen' there's no need for any other words ❤❤❤❤
No doubt about Queen can take you on a great musical ride. Great reaction.

Great review! Much respect!
Thank you for recognizing that it took the whole band to make the Queen sound. Their playing sometimes is just a sensory overload.
we rule by blind madness and pure greed
Our lives dictated by tradition, superstition, false religion
Through the aeons, and on and on
Steve Howe of the band Yes provided the flamenco guitar solo. Also, this song was a nod to Led Zeppelin's song Kashmir.
To me the best singuer ever ❤
I agree e with you ❤😂
