@@MrUsermister Brian and Rogers egos would have you believe, it was their talents that made Queen..Your financials may say it, but without Freddie and John..Your just to guys cashing in on the only band named QUEEN, which ended with absence of John and Freddie..My God, what HUGE EGOS they have, and when you start making snide remarks about an original member, is beyond disgust, especially when you both have had your share of crap going on in your own life...Your NOT Queen....
@@mariaignagni2860 I agree. What they call Queen +AL isn't even half of Queen. It's 2 drummers, 4 guitars, back up singers, 2 piano players, a synth player etc. Brian is the one with the massive ego. As the decades have gone by his stories have all changed. I saw Queen live. It can't ever happen again without John and Freddie!!
@@tsukigalleta nope, although he mostly played with fingers, it depended on the song, and actually used picks for lots of songs when it suited them, Under Pressure being a prime example.
he was the dancer with the sexy legs of the group. john legs has the best muscular tone because freddie was slender. jim said freddie was very slender & before freddie he liked beefy men..brian legs look like stilts.john looks great in shorts. i watch freddie & john with out them it just is not queen. i heard brian say they were not going to write any new songs. what? just keep playing the old songs? can they not write any new songs? i always had the feeling freddie teaked most of their songs & something i read in google said more or less that it is true.
I love the way they each just wore what they wanted at each concert, shorts, bare feet, no shirt (Roger), glammed up, royalty digs, whatever. It was all good.
Ever notice Deaky never smiles during a performance? During interviews, he has the gentlest smile - the kind that warms the heart and soul. Nice guy....
So great to have this visual perspective of John. 99% of Queen videos highlight Freddie with only quick cuts to the rest of the band so it's awesome to see John's complete contribution to a performance.
Just imagine: on any normal-sized club stage, with another band of amateur dudes, Deacy would be regarded as a total mover and rocker - but in this band HE is the quiet one.
This is SOOO good for so many reasons! One reason being that when you take the focus off the "lead" guys - the singer and guitar player - you suddenly feel how "solid" the song is from the rhythm section's point of view. Any song can feel like there are so many parts all flurrying in different directions, but seeing this makes you realize how simple and structured a good song has to be at its base. No tooling around like assholes or gloryhunters - Taylor and Deacy just lay down a SOLID bedrock that makes it *possible* for the other two guys to flurry around and hog the stardom!
This is the best of Queen.. The fucking Balls out , ROCKING till your pants drop..The most underrated Bass player of all time.. He was the driving force behind every song they ever recorded..I love Freddie, but Deacon, May and Taylor were extremely talented musicians.The best live band ever..
@@Vinguy11 Yes😉. Best live band I've ever seen. Not arrogant all all. 4 beautiful men. Mind-blowing show. I can name several famous bands where I wanted my money back.... Queen were always sensational.
Jon Dunmore - The way I look at the bass and drums is that they are the canvas that allows the "lead" instruments to paint their picture. Without a great rhythm section any band stinks no matter how good the show offs are. Taylor was steady. Deacon was a master. They were always lock step. His most catchy riffs are often very simple but real ear worms! Others are complex as hell. The point is, the bass anchors the band and he knew exactly what to play to make each song shine. When I watch any of their videos, I look for Deaky to see what he is doing. He's all business and often in his own little world but can't keep still. He really FEELS the music. He wants to be good, not a show off.
Phenomenal musician. Have the utmost respect for this guy. When FM died he knew that was it and so quietly slipped off. Never been tempted back. JD has an amense degree of dignity. Sadly missed but well deserved retirement
John Deacon is an AMAZING bass player....he makes it look so easy..John, I hope you’re keeping well🌺....Freddie shouting at John “Go Johnny go”...from the Chuck Berry song “Johnny B.Goode”..as an appreciation of John’s bass playing...and for good measure, Freddie singing “Down in the city just Hoople and me”...a reference to the time they supported Mott the Hoople on the bill in New York🤩
I love our John Deacon.. loved looking at at him bouncing around in his shorts.. There was time when he would look like he was going to fall but he kept in" Rockin"..,He was a little doll...
Han Drayss, oooooh ja, John has the most powerful, beautiful, expressive hands - I only saw Queen live one time and was just mesmerised watching him and Freddie... Check out the live concerts from the rainbow (1974) and Odeon (1975) if you haven't already seen them - at 'the rainbow' John gets a lot more camera time than in many other concerts (partly because he is so close to Freddie on piano, and maybe this particular camera-person/editor was a bit more balanced/intelligent!). The closing rock medley at the Odeon 1975 John is fking savage improvising and soloing on the bass, it is towards the end of jailhouse rock - the camera lingers on John's hands and it is just wild, so beautiful.
Juliet Lambert , very true. I would HAVE to be drinking to get in front of crowds that big. I would be surprised if they DIDN'T down a few before, during, and after. LOL
Aug. 19th 2019...Happy Birthday to everyone's favorite dancing Queen, John Deacon! Watching you dance around with your bass makes me happy and inspires me to open the video full screen on one of my monitors, crank up the volume, and get the heck out of my computer chair and dance along with you!! I hope you are doing well and are enjoying your retirement and time with your family. Thank you so much for helping to create all the wonderful music that millions of people all over the planet still enjoy today! Wishing you a happy and healthy year ahead! We love you and miss you, Deaky!
Wow just priceless to see Deaky and Roger and what they bring to this song and actually all of their songs. Because all four were great musicians is why they were and still are the greatest Rock band of all time . ❤
One of the reason Freddie liked johnny was that he didn't try to overshadow him, like other bassists did, during auditions and early gigs. He clearly understimated the power of disco deaky!!!
Ну наконец-то и я увидела Джона в работе от начала песни и до конца. А то секундными эпизодиками вставляли его в видео. Я уж думала, что никто так и не заснял Дикона для истории. Отличное видео! Люблю и уважаю этого скромнягу.
First of all Deaky can pull of short shorts better than me. Second of all Deaky has better legs than me. Lastly Deaky can dance better than me. I am jealous especially since I am a girl.
It’s so beautiful watching him like this. He was always the very quiet, shy, reserved one who didn’t say much in interviews and never really felt comfortable with the whole ‘fame’ weirdness that went with being part of Queen. So to see him in his element, so happy, just rocking out like this is wonderful. Although I do wonder if a cheeky ‘lemonade’ or two was involved here as well! 😁 (no criticism or disrespect to John intended, if anything that just makes it so much more precious. It shows the fun, happy John.
I'm so in love with this man...but honestly I'm madly in love with all of Queen! Four world class musicians coming together to bring such joy to the masses! I love you Deaky!!🥁🎸🎹🎤👑❤️🤩🤩
I always felt he's been a member of Queen who got kinda suprised how successful they've become. But look at him enjoying himself on stage. Deaky disco beast we all adore.
Its impossible Queen without Deacon
... go figure without Freddie
User Mister Without Freddie and Deacy
without anyone of Queen

5:55
John - *breaks a pick*
*a new pick appears*
6:05 *breaks that one*
John *thinks* ‘I guess fingers can’t break’
Except they can oH GOD JOHN NO.
This was actually unusual, because Deaky used to play the bass with his fingers only
@@tsukigalleta nope, although he mostly played with fingers, it depended on the song, and actually used picks for lots of songs when it suited them, Under Pressure being a prime example.
I’m offended that there isn’t a melting emoji cuz I need it RIGHT NOW
Speaking of... Did he break another one at 4:32? He seemed so pissed off
People always talk about how shy he is but the way he pulls off those moves wearing those micro shorts tell me otherwise
Hahaha, I know right!
He's a cool cat who doesn't need to try.
Women really love John I wish he would read these
The sad thing us that he has no ass.. we were ALL thinking it.
Like the rest of the Band...he nails it. Queen is...all or nothing.
He was the dancer of the group.
Yeah...like George Harrison was.🕺
John was the dancing queen
he was the dancer with the sexy legs of the group. john legs has the best muscular tone because freddie was slender. jim said freddie was very slender & before freddie he liked beefy men..brian legs look like stilts.john looks great in shorts. i watch freddie & john with out them it just is not queen. i heard brian say they were not going to write any new songs. what? just keep playing the old songs? can they not write any new songs? i always had the feeling freddie teaked most of their songs & something i read in google said more or less that it is true.
b smith he ‘teaked ’? What does that mean.
theonlyredspecial think he meant tweaked bro
not to be dramatic but i’m in love with him
LOL, I know how you feel.
true dat
Absolutely besotted with John, always will be. He is fking beautiful.
@@pluto488 what kind of a question is that?
@@theraven6843 a shitty meme
John Deacon bopping away is a joy to behold. He was just completely into his music.
Por supuesto la joyita de queen y lo más grande Fredy lo sabía por eso lo tenía en su regazo y el no pudo seguir cuando faltó Fredy 😢❤❤❤❤
Disco Deacy Strikes Again
Hello there dear! I've found you 😂
Hello
Kayleigh Natasha he’s back at it to steal yo girl....., and he did
John: **enthusiastic bouncing**
HELP! I can't stop laughing 😂😂😂
Finally the spotlight is on John. About time he got some recognition!! Love you John, even though you hate the attention. ❤️❤️❤️
exactly what I was thinking!
I love the way they each just wore what they wanted at each concert, shorts, bare feet, no shirt (Roger), glammed up, royalty digs, whatever. It was all good.
Brian was usually always just black pants a loose white button up and Adidas
@@kylebunnyboy619 Um, no. Sad you didn't get to see various his starman outfits in the 70s.
LesPest And And sweater vests(john)
I like that also
Beckys Berries omg the sweater vests 😂😂 they looked cute tho
Quite a genius...!His bass lines such as Under pressure and Another one bites the dust to name a few, are simply milestones in rock music history.
The Fairy Fellas Masterstroke and Flick of the Wrist are sublime
Queen's Succeses were Deacon
Millionaire Waltz and Dragon Attack!
@@patty364t6 so fun bassline! he is a genius on the darkness
Perfectly said
Ever notice Deaky never smiles during a performance? During interviews, he has the gentlest smile - the kind that warms the heart and soul. Nice guy....
I love it.....when Freddie said: Go Johny ...go
That was adorable when Freddie said that
It's a reference to 'Johnny B. Goode' due to the obvious similarities. Nothing to do with John Deacon.
@@vapeymcvape5000 I would disagree in this instance as it came right at the start of a very intense rhythm/bass section for John
@@vapeymcvape5000 I can't make up my mind whether it's Johnny B Goode or Deaky. Doesn't matter really. He kicks arse 😊
@@joannagodfrey5111 - Sure it's a reference to "Johnny B Goode" but it is obviously directed at Deaky! I agree with you.
can we talk about john deacon's shorts for a moment? they are awesome and I want them ^_^
they're so short and sdlaøshfwf
Xdxdxd
Haha!! He had the worst taste in clothes but I still love him. I had a T-shirt like John’s & I’m a girl...
What a great video tracking deacon shorts love the eighties
I notice Queen is the one band from this period where the members do not shy away from wearing shorts (Brian did too sometimes) lol.
I love this Guy😍❣❣💕💓❤
2:00 Deacy was so cute 😂
Theresya P he tripped omg ❤️
ssunflowerpalacee Where?
He tripped which made me think if he was ok
I heard deaky was drunked during this performance because of the stress :((
John created his own world, at the same time, staying in ours.
How can someone be this funky
He is such a dancer
So great to have this visual perspective of John. 99% of Queen videos highlight Freddie with only quick cuts to the rest of the band so it's awesome to see John's complete contribution to a performance.
AMEN
this is the best video on the internet i watch it when im sad because the minute i see deacy dancing he immediately cheers me up
So do I! Deacy always made my day through every performance 😊 he nailed it.. I find him hot in shorts 😉
He broke two picks within like 20 seconds at the end there damn
6 minutes and 21 seconds of pure brilliance from the legend of Deacy
Just imagine: on any normal-sized club stage, with another band of amateur dudes, Deacy would be regarded as a total mover and rocker - but in this band HE is the quiet one.
Jon Dunmore he's is a blockingly (stage blocking) loud one haha
I love you John ❤️ Hope you are e enjoying your time
This is SOOO good for so many reasons!

I LOVE HOW they all had their own style, was true to themselves and then together made MAGIC!!!!!!
Deacon the dancing queen
That one person who disliked it. *Fight me.*
We are gonna fight 33 peeps lol
I don't know what it is, but something about this guy just touches my heart.
Mr. John Deacon is probably my favorite Queen member among the 4 .
I just love his light personality. :)
John’s the best and my favorite (and Freddie).
Phenomenal musician. Have the utmost respect for this guy. When FM died he knew that was it and so quietly slipped off. Never been tempted back. JD has an amense degree of dignity. Sadly missed but well deserved retirement
Deacon definitely one of the great rock bass players of all time. Deserves to be on any list!
Jerry P, absolutely! John is on Entwhistle's list - that says a great deal!
This man is jamming tf out and its absolutely amazing. Look at him go!!! WOOP!!

5:55 - 6:09
this man broke two picks in the span of less than twenty seconds.
I'm gonna have to rewatch this, I didn't think Deacon used a pick.
@@brook900 he did occasionally, but not all the time
@@brook900 he had 2 blue picks on his guitar all the time and they were hos favorite brand because they had a thumb grip or soemthing
John Deacon, you’re a legend! Wish that you play again and write more songs. Miss you 😘
Fun fact: This man did actually have a complete coctail bar behind his amps, so he could take a couple of drinks during the show :P
They ALL drank during the shows!! It is rock and roll my darlings...
Juliet Lambert , very true. I would HAVE to be drinking to get in front of crowds that big. I would be surprised if they DIDN'T down a few before, during, and after. LOL
Troppo bello
And the fact that even drunk they were still so in time and on point, just proves what amazing musicians they are!
He looks pretty tanked up here.
O melhor do mundo no baixo.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Deakys feelin it!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
El mejor bajista del mundo 🙌🏻
Interesting
Freddie always got the spotlight.... this is actually the first time i can see the real John
Well freddie is the lead singer
I am so glad this is on my recommendation
Sid Freddie say Go Johnny Go 3:28
Yeah he did
@Kayleigh Natasha aww thats adorable
Jenny Piontek It certainly is
Freddie used to do that: take it Brian, pretty boy (Roger), and now, go Johny go :)
Jenny Piontek yes I heard that too!
Amazing free Deaky ❣ We still love you ❣🥰
I really love him, he is so talented and down to earth, what a great man! John deacon

@@williamg209two well he says it in this song and he's clearly refering to John ❤

This song is often overlooked, but it's one of the best straightforward rockers in their catalog.
john's outfits are always the best
This is brilliant. You only ever get quick glimpses of John. Great to see his at work over a whole song.

One of the greatest, in fact, probably THE greatest, stadium rock rhythmn sections, Deacon and Taylor.
John was there with the whole of his heart, so as any of the others of Queen!
Imagine this dream job to film only John Deacon during a consert
His legs should be a religion or something
Yes!! I worship at this shrine daily.
John Deacon = multi-talented genius. Freddie knew this and respected him for it. Miss them both so very much 💛👑💛
🎉 Happy Birthday John 🎉

A lot of people agree w/me that this video coverage is the BEST angle to catch the concert. So good 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
John Deacon is in his own bassist world and be-bopping around
So what- he plays and he is there just as we want him to be.Jump and dances and hip hop in his cute mini pants. Love it.

I love how he always stands in front of roger or next to Freddie when he’s on piano
Hi John I've been a queen fan since 11 yrs old I'm 59 now granny with grand kids still follow you all but miss you be safe hope u r well 😜😙❤️

Such an awesome video showcasing Deacy with his cute little shorty shorts! Nice legs, a damn fine bassist! ;)
I love his eargasm face oh i love John Deacon.
I love looking at the Disco Deaky cameras because his dance moves are amazing! Bass lines, Clothes, Dance moves, Brilliant.
I always felt he's been a member of Queen who got kinda suprised how successful they've become. But look at him enjoying himself on stage. Deaky disco beast we all adore.
めちゃくちゃ可愛い笑笑
やっぱりJohn大好き
I like John Deacon, his so cute, neat n clean and seems a quiet guy and a A class! and of course terrific guitarist.
Around 2:08 he broke his first pick, then pulled one from behind his left ear.
Then he broke two more lol
Such a great bassline of Deaky ! Magic. We still love you John Deacon ! A gem with Freddie, Brian and Roger !
It's awesome watching Deaky rock out!
He seems so outgoing and rockin' here. Even though he was a Quiet, secluded, introverted, non attention seeking person.
Deacon is all about the music; totally caught up in the music being presented.
Deacy is so adorable and precious. I can’t help falling in love with him. I like his vibe when he performed on stage, so I call him The Dancing Queen.
Johnny can take it seriously with his hair and clothing in a performance.
OH MY GOOD THIS IS AMAZING. ALL THAT ENERGY. WISH I WAS THERE! 😍
Eres maravilloso. Mucha felicidad John 💝💕
Did he just break two picks at the end
*he did oh my god*
He looked so pretty doing it too 😭
Indeed
I didn't even notice, I was too busy looking at his hair 😆
JHON DEACON se te extraña REINA HERMOSA 💋🥰. BENDICIONES LARGA VIDA HERMOSO 😍
