      I fell in love with Queen when I first heard them on my car radio in 1974. The song was Killer Queen and I had never heard a voice like that in my life. I’ve been a fan ever since. I listen to my playlist almost daily. Honestly, I only listen to Queen when we had Freddie. Nothing personal against Adam Lambert, but I just can’t watch or listen to someone else singing Freddie’s songs.

      Laura L, what a beautiful true comment. I'm 54 and have been a fan since 1977. I poured myself into the band from that time on, along with the other usual suspects from the 70's. But Queen was always my favorite.The books, bootlegs, vhs and dvd documentaries I have collected are pretty cool. I too cannot listen to or watch Freddie (Farookh Bulsara) if I'm by myself and no one's around without getting tears in my eyes. I'm glad I'm not alone in the getting teary eyed thing.Cheers from the canadian Queen nut.

      There is something otherworldly about Freddie. I have pondered this sooo many times. He always makes me feel like he's truly a level above human. And I am often overwhelmed by tears by Queen's music, whether they be happy tears,
      lonely tears, sad and desolate tears
      or simply an overflow of emotions that they produce in me. So you cry all you want. I think most true fans do exactly the same thing
      I consider tears to be my private tribute to Queen and most of all, to our beautiful Freddie

      I have to disagree on one point. Freddie did not leave us too early. He went out on top, remembered how he wanted to be- as a performer and a true professional. he stayed true to himself and kept making music right to the very end. would they have gone on to put out more records- sure. but their legacy will live on for so much longer than so many other bands that changed members all too often. and some bands just dont know when to quit.

    I watched a ton of reactions to this song and I think your reaction was one of the more sincere ones I've seen. You also knew a bit about the band (at least their names) and I especially liked where you went with Queen's technical perfection mixed with their relaxed performance. I think one can only be truly relaxed when they've perfected their craft thus making it look almost easy. That song and performance is layered and complex and for them to just lose themselves in the performance hints at how hard Queen must've practiced their craft to make it look that smooth yet emotionally powerful.

    I totally relate to the emotions. I have been a casual fan since the early 90s as a kid, but I lost my mom in a pretty traumatizing way a few years back, the ONLY thing that got me through was running, and queen. I watched the same concerts twenty times over because they’re the only music that made me feel any type of joy, Freddie gave me comfort in a way I can’t explain. I saw Queen and Adam Lambert two years ago, and I was an emotional wreck the whole time. Queens different, and I can’t explain it, and clearly I’m not the only one who feels this way! I only wish Freddie could see what an impact he’s had on SO many people lives. And it’s so awesome to see the younger generations embracing Queen !

    I'm the same age that Freddie would be and I've been a fan almost 50 years. My favorites: "Save Me" (Live Montreal '81), "You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care" medley # 13 Wembley '86, "Stone Cold Crazy" '74 at the Rainbow, "Love Of My Life" Sao Paulo '81 (seeing Freddie and Roger blown away with the crowd singing back to them is tear jearking), "Fat Bottomed Girls", any of the live performances, but the apex of all is the 1985 Live Aid Concert that is still to this day considered the greatest rock concert of all time (22 of the best minutes you'll ever see!). The "Barcelona" video with Monserrat Caballe and Freddie is yet another level above all those I've named. It's Freddie's final performance

    It's so strange but I can tell you that you are far from the only one who experiences this odd feeling of fighting back tears when listening to Queen - especially their live performances. I get that very same feeling, and I have heard other YT reactors mention it too. And we can't really explain what it comes from. There's just something ... emotional about Queen's music. It touches the heart somehow. I think Freddie and his pure passionate vocals has a lot to do with it. It's like a mix of absolute beauty and pain.

      I have to disagree with both of you. As a musician and a fan. There are so many undiscovered bands out there and so much music being created.

    Just heard you react for the first time. I only listen to reactions to Queen, and Somebody to Love - Montreal 81- is definitely the most popular Queen song to react to. But I've never seen lyrics above the performance, plus TWO videos of it - one large and one small - it really enhanced my experience of it even though I've already seen it umpteen times. And your emotional reaction deepened my feelings as I watched Queen too. I'm really excited to see you do more reactions to Queen, so I've just subscribed.

I knew I was seeing brilliance up close and personal through the entire concert. Great reaction! Such sweet memories for me. From this concert: "Save Me", which is another heartfelt song and "Tie Your Mother Down" , which is a wonderfully arranged fun song, would be great additions to your reactions. For some earlier Queen work, try LIVE at the Rainbow, 1974 - "Father to Son", "White Queen" - totally mind-blowing.

    I saw someone mentioned Exercises in Free Love. I only recently discovered that Freddie recorded an album (1987) with Spanish opera singer, Montserrat Caballe (mont sir raht ka bah yay), The title song, Barcelona, was written, as a request by her, about her home town. It was used in the opening of the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. The original plan was that they would sing it live. Sadly, he died in 1991. 3 must see videos from that album were, Barcelona, How Can I Go On, The Golden Boy. BUT, the vocal recording that got her attention to do that album was Exercises in Free Love. MIND BLOWING. THAT WAS FREDDIE😱😱. UNBELIEVABLE. I’m finding a lot of Queen fans hadn’t heard it. Be among the rarified air 🤗. Heck, do a marathon on these.

      I cannot help watching a band perform as good as they do and then think how that will never happen again... it breaks my heart. I just love how relatable they seem as humans. RIP to Freddie!
      Thank you for your view and very nice comment :)

    Amazing to see someone who knows about music react naturally to a masterpiece like this, not like other fake ones who just want the likes and become known. I’m with you man.

      I really do appreciate your comment here, and I apologize for it being at least a year late! I do these reactions because I love music and enjoy chatting with the viewers about the bands I cover. Queen is not my typical style but they are uber talented and are electric on stage. When you say natural this band right here reflects that to a T. Thank you so much!!
