I think what makes this is the sheer sincerity. Most bands, if put on a camp and melodramatic pulp-SF film like this, would be winking at the audience, but Queen legitimately make you believe the fate of the universe is at stake.
This right here. One of the reasons why this film is so much fun to watch is because Freddie and friends put so much passion and had so much fun making the soundtrack for this film.
When I was a kid they had this great Flash Gordon pinball machine. It played "Flash Ahhhh" when you scored big. It was one of the first machines with talking audio and was a pretty big deal.
@@daveleach1178 I'm gonna make it my ringtone also lol ty for the idea . I'm in eighth grade still in school so I hope I remember to put it on vibrate while I'm in class lol .
@Doug Davidson Oh HELL YA! I remember that thing! LOL...try playing it with a Queen song playing on the....(get ready for it)....JUKEBOX!...yep it WAS a long time ago :)
New Year after midnight, the year this song came out. A group of us, a little under the influence of alcohol, are out First Footing. We pass the house of the gym teacher at the local school. One of the girls in our group is attracted to the teacher's son and she shouts out "John, John, I love you". Everyone else immediately replies out loud "But we only have 14 hours to save the Earth!" :)
My Mom, who's 51, will just randomly burst into singing Flash when we're home. She remembers seeing the film back when it came out and loves this song.
I sang this at a shopping mall here in Michigan a few days ago and people thought that I was crazy but I noticed that the mall security guards were dancing along. All 10 of them.
I watched the movie with my father and brother when I was just 12 and loved every second of it. I played the song from Queen after the movie over and over and all the quotes from the movie are still stuck in my memory even today when I am 55.. I especially remember the quotes around: General Kala Flash Gordon approaching. What do you mean Flash Gordon approaching!?. Open fire, all weapons send out the star ship Ajax to bring back his body. Me and my friend Peter from school would constantly say those lines over and over during class and laugh. We both loved the movie.
I never watched this movie with my father because my father likes women not kids. He watched kids movie with me like he should like Jurassic Park. You sicko. Get a better dad!!!!!
Flash! Ah-ah Savior of the universe Flash! Ah-ah He'll save everyone of us Flash! Ah-ah He's a miracle Flash!

Taika Waititi said if Freddie was alive today he would have asked Queen to do the music for Thor Ragnorok and i can't even begin to think how amazing that would have been
RIP Adobe Flash Player, you gave so many creators their start and kick-started the internet as we know it today, without you RUclips wouldn't even be here, sleep well.
Flash Gordon: "Don't worry, Dale we'll only bang for 12 hours then spend an hour smoking cigarettes... That leaves us sixty whole minutes to save the Earth."
He'll save with a mighty hand Every man, every woman, every child with a mighty Flash!!! I just say: WOW, how high could Freddie sing, please?? So, really great, unique. rest in peace dear Freddie, we hold you in our hearts forever
Freddie had a BEAUTIFUL falsetto! ❤❤ I could list the songs. 🙏 “Cool Cat” from Hot Space is entirely falsetto. …what’s surprising, though, is that the highest notes in all of Queen’s harmonies were sung by Roger. Sometimes in concerts when Freddie’s voice was too tired from touring, Roger would take the top melody line for a few notes. NO SHADE to Freddie at all BTW, just credit to Rogers talent beyond drums.

I wasn't going to comment at all because my mum always told me "if you haven't got anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." But can understand why the dislikes. Generally, I love Queen, I bought a few of their albums back in the day, hardly a week goes by when I don't play their music. I don't play this one though. I wouldn't say I hate it, and I can't be bothered to click the thumbs down, but I'm at best indifferent to it. Can anyone honestly say that this isn't one of the worst songs in their catalogue? What's it got going for it, other than camp silliness? Sorry mum, I should have listened...
@Robin Elliot Borat fan spotted. Not sure SBC would have made it better. Freddie's extravagant nature is respectfully shown in the movie, but it is mainly about music because believe it or not, Freddie Mercury was known to be a musician first. But of course, you are free to have your opinion...
We can thank Brian May for the masterpiece Flash soundtrack. He contributed most, if not all, to this album. I read the rest of the band got bored nearly halfway through lol, so Brian took over.
@@brandonharris9769 Brian wrote way more Queen songs than people realize. Freddie even once said that all their harmonies were mostly Brian, which surprises me since Freddie is such an outstanding musician himself. It occurs to me, though, that with Brian being a physicist (he even taught high school physics briefly before Queen!) that he probably had a mathematician’s approach to harmonies and could ferret out the most dynamic ones.

Yeah, it's absolutely cheesy, camp and over-the-top. However, that was just being true to the source material. They also did the Marvel comic opening before Marvel.
There are many times I can’t sing fast enough to keep up with Freddie but at 1:10 He'll save with a mighty hand Ev'ry man ev'ry woman ev'ry child... it’s impossible
"I meant that the distance between us and Flash Gordon is decreasing at a consistent pace, and, if this continues, he will eventually reach our position. Is that clear, General?"
Oh My God! From 1:10 Mr. Freddie Mercury is freaking amazing! He sings, he raps, he rocks, he belts, he operaticalize! Oh my golly! He is really a great great singer! 👍😊.
14 hours to save the world. Genius. God what a band, they were the best of the entire seventies AND eighties in my humble opinion and Freddie was the best frontman EVER. Much missed.
I saw the movie when it came out with my father in movie theaters, and I absolutely loved it. The whole soundtrack made by queen is terrific, I highly recommend to listen to the whole soundtrack if you haven't heard it yet, a real electronic jewel.
Wasn't that a great time to be alive ☺️ I saw it 3 times in the theatre , I mowed the lawn ,cleaned the house and did what I could to earn points with my parents, to see it that 3rd time ..hahaa
I was 7 years old when I saw this movie at the theatre, and it was AWESOME!! also I was already a Queen fan cause my teen uncle that used to play their songs over and over! so when I saw the trailer at the movies, and notice it was Queen doing the soundtrack... dude... the earth STOP!!!!! WAS BEYOND MY DREAMS!!! What a great moment to remember!! and also hearing the LP was for me like watching the movie again cause the dialogs!!! Truly a pure joy!!!
What an awesome video.I was 15 years old when myself and best buds went to the local Fern Rock movie theatre.Our prime motivation was to hear Queen's soundtrack.Seeing the movie was secondary.In my mind the campy 1950's era,style copying the old Flash Gordon t.v show or films was kind of hokey for 1980.I know it was deliberately tongue in cheek.But to make a long story short.Queens soundtrack may have been The Best part of the movie.Of course being a Queen fan since 1977.I might be a bit biased!😂
I watching a different video and got an ad that played this song and I was like OMG QUEEN so then I raced over to this video, so yeah just thought I’d put that out there
Who can repeat that words in such temp and voice - "He's for every one of us Stand for every one of us He saves with a mighty hand Every man, every woman Every child, with a mighty Flash" It's impossible
This Flash Gordon movie, was actually quite good. I know it had a cheesiness to it, but that gave the movie a kind of charm. I also like how it was done in a psychedelic 70s kind of way.
Yeah, this movie was one of those ones from my childhood that got me questioning life and its existentialism without really understanding the emotions I was feeling. All I knew is that it confused, and excited me both at the same time, while also making me a little sad. Mindfuck of a movie for a 5 year old in the 80's.
What a guy brian blessed is he punch a poler bear in the face whan it look in he tent i dont think that poler bear will look in brian blessed tent again lool
@@nickpro11 Comparing Toto to Queen? They aren't even on the same level as Queen. Not the same, Dune was an epic story in its own right, the music was extra, Queen made the cheesiness of Flash into a classic.
This was always my favorite part @1:10 when Freddie rapid fires “ He'll save with a mighty hand Every man, every woman, every child with a mighty Flash”
My work used Queen as a theme for a corporate meeting and had this song blasting at 7:15am as we came into the meeting hall, and now I can never disassociate this song and album with that specific morning.
Brian Blessed is such a hilarious character. He even came to Northampton for a pantomime and said the line "Flash Gordon alive" in Peter Pan. I think he was playing Captain Hook.
*Cisco turns on the music* Cisco: I’ve been saving this right moment since day one! Iris: Really? Cisco: He’s jumping in and out of a black hole! Iris: Good point
And that's how the 1980s began.

What the hell. Queen is everywhere! Holy fuck. Didn't know this was from them. They literally killed the music game.
I didn't even know they sang this
Wtf?
I guess you didn't know "Highlander" has songs from Queen also...
Don't forget Highlander and Iron Eagle
Queen didn’t kill the music game, they slaughtered the competition
I think what makes this is the sheer sincerity. Most bands, if put on a camp and melodramatic pulp-SF film like this, would be winking at the audience, but Queen legitimately make you believe the fate of the universe is at stake.

Wow that’s amazing I’m joining ur class
Don't forget to study your Highlander and Iron Eagle.
I wanna do a film classes in college...u lucky bastard

Epic. There is no more fitting artist than Queen to perform the soundtrack for a superhero film. They are masters of the rock anthem.
Flash Season 6!
True.
The best part of the original Highlander movie is the Queen music soundtrack. The soundtrack for that movie is awesome.

@@wayneshields2125 Brian’s solo work is comfortably the best imo. Especially his first album few decent tracks on another world as well imo.
@@brandonharris9769
Brian wrote way more Queen songs than people realize. Freddie even once said that all their harmonies were mostly Brian, which surprises me since Freddie is such an outstanding musician himself.
It occurs to me, though, that with Brian being a physicist (he even taught high school physics briefly before Queen!) that he probably had a mathematician’s approach to harmonies and could ferret out the most dynamic ones.

"Gordon's Alive?"
This movie was fucking ridiculous and it was great. The Queen soundtrack made it 10 times better though.
Its a cult movie now
Sir Heckle the soundtrack made a terrible movie awesome. Lol
Yeah, it's absolutely cheesy, camp and over-the-top. However, that was just being true to the source material. They also did the Marvel comic opening before Marvel.
Sir Heckle and the fact that Roger and Brian where directors
Jk6505 Lol I don’t think they are talking about Bohemian Rhapsody.

Greatest frontman/lead singer of all time!!
Yes! shivers !❣!
Yea and no auto tune on his voice ♥♥♥♥
in fact it's not Freddie, because he could not tune his voice that way, the one who tuned his voice is Roger Taylor, it's a few people who know

Jonathan Sauceda Shut the fuck up kid.
Love this band. Miss Freddie. Can’t believe how much Deacy influenced my bass playing.
14 hours to save the world. Genius. God what a band, they were the best of the entire seventies AND eighties in my humble opinion and Freddie was the best frontman EVER. Much missed.
Could not agree more!
Nothing of their music sounded the same!Each song epic
I saw the movie when it came out with my father in movie theaters, and I absolutely loved it. The whole soundtrack made by queen is terrific, I highly recommend to listen to the whole soundtrack if you haven't heard it yet, a real electronic jewel.
Wasn't that a great time to be alive ☺️ I saw it 3 times in the theatre , I mowed the lawn ,cleaned the house and did what I could to earn points with my parents, to see it that 3rd time ..hahaa
I was 7 years old when I saw this movie at the theatre, and it was AWESOME!! also I was already a Queen fan cause my teen uncle that used to play their songs over and over! so when I saw the trailer at the movies, and notice it was Queen doing the soundtrack... dude... the earth STOP!!!!! WAS BEYOND MY DREAMS!!! What a great moment to remember!! and also hearing the LP was for me like watching the movie again cause the dialogs!!! Truly a pure joy!!!
I just realized I was only 6 when I saw that. Now that is crazy!
What an awesome video.I was 15 years old when myself and best buds went to the local Fern Rock movie theatre.Our prime motivation was to hear Queen's soundtrack.Seeing the movie was secondary.In my mind the campy 1950's era,style copying the old Flash Gordon t.v show or films was kind of hokey for 1980.I know it was deliberately tongue in cheek.But to make a long story short.Queens soundtrack may have been The Best part of the movie.Of course being a Queen fan since 1977.I might be a bit biased!😂
0:27 Can we talk for a while about Deacon's sweater? 😃😃😃
Bill Cosby loves it
Of course......
I watching a different video and got an ad that played this song and I was like OMG QUEEN so then I raced over to this video, so yeah just thought I’d put that out there

I did it

Sergius Master yes... imposible
I try it, I cannot breath 😁 he the LEGEND
Ohhh so thats what he's saying
This Flash Gordon movie, was actually quite good. I know it had a cheesiness to it, but that gave the movie a kind of charm. I also like how it was done in a psychedelic 70s kind of way.
It was made in 1980 i think so long ago i still remember whan it come out it was a big deal back than
@@killzone527 Released 1980, probably made 1979 as movies were filmed a year before they were released so its very late 70's.
Yeah, this movie was one of those ones from my childhood that got me questioning life and its existentialism without really understanding the emotions I was feeling. All I knew is that it confused, and excited me both at the same time, while also making me a little sad. Mindfuck of a movie for a 5 year old in the 80's.
It's a great movie, the weakest point is Sam Jones, the guy playing Flash
Nah it wasn't good, that's just nostalgia talking. The acting was bad, the sets were bad. The music was awesome.
Thank you flash thank you queen 😊😊😊
Queen bought me here
Same tho

Me, too. I watched this movie yesterday. It's pretty good.

Whenever Brian Blessed says, "Gordon's alive?" I feel so blessed.
He doesn't say that though. He says "Gordon's aliiiiiiiiiiiiiiAVE?".
Because that's what a Brian Blessed blesses us with.
he says 'gurkensalat'

Excuse me, it's correctly spelled "BRIAN BLESSED".

Imagine making a terrible cheesy 80's movie and queen makes the fucking theme song
Thus a classic is made.
lol
It's like how Toto did the soundtrack for David Lynch's film adaptation of Dune, instant cult classic status
@@nickpro11 Comparing Toto to Queen? They aren't even on the same level as Queen.
Not the same, Dune was an epic story in its own right, the music was extra, Queen made the cheesiness of Flash into a classic.
@@MichaelClark-uw7ex Toto actually made bangers, collaborated on Thriller...don't shit on Toto like that.
flesh gordan is my faverote
This was always my favorite part @1:10 when Freddie rapid fires “ He'll save with a mighty hand Every man, every woman, every child with a mighty Flash”
The middle section is one of the most moving pieces of music Queen ever recorded.
Que composición tan fina!!🙌
My work used Queen as a theme for a corporate meeting and had this song blasting at 7:15am as we came into the meeting hall, and now I can never disassociate this song and album with that specific morning.
The base intro is so simple yet it gives me goosebumps, its like the 80s all over again.
Brian Blessed is such a hilarious character. He even came to Northampton for a pantomime and said the line "Flash Gordon alive" in Peter Pan. I think he was playing Captain Hook.
Andrew Whitney i am sitting down in a car Puerto Rico, laughing my ass picturing Captain Hook saying that.
Brian Blessed for you.
Andrew Whitney I named my guitar King Yrkanos, from his character on Dr. Who:)
R.I.P. Max von Sydow - Ming the Merciless.
He was SOOOO good (bad) in this.

Dear old Ming, he wasn't all bad just misunderstood.
