I know it may sound stupid. But that sounds quite elegant in a rock band. You are maybe the best rock band ever created and you end your concerts with the national anthem AND saying Good night to everyone.
yes the red special sounds unique in every way but this is a lot of harmonizing, knownig brian as a perfectionist, he propably recorded this track on track and didnt use any pedals, dont know if there was an harmonizing effect at that time.. when I think of brian may I think of a sustainless continues harmonized sound like this, or the last bit of the bohemian rhapsody solo...brian is just another level..
Wtf? I was listening to it on the album playlist and i thought to myself, "what the hell is innuendo doing in a night at the opera?" Then the guitar riff comes, wow... bamboozled.
Yes, totally agreed. I'm a big guitar buff and have listened to all the greats for decades (jazz, metal, prog, classical, rock, spanish etc). And, for me, Brian is right at the very top of the tree. They're all different in their different ways - so you there's no such thing as a 'ranking list' in my book. But for sheer musicality, he's up there with a very tiny handful of others. Nothing he ever plays is anything other than beautifully musical - and elegantly creative (like you say, unique) - to my ears.....
yeh zepplin fans look down at him, and who decided they were the best rock band, Queen stuff is far more diverse, just look at Queen 2, sheer heart attack and a night at the opera, who else could do that? brian on good company creating a jazz band with trombone and woodwind all from his red special 👑✊🇬🇧
God save our gracious Queen, Long live our noble Queen, God save the Queen: Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us: God save the Queen.
O Lord our God arise, Scatter her enemies, And make them fall: Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On Thee our hopes we fix: God save us all.
You may insult me, You may be rude to me, You may call me stupid, or dumb, You may call me anything, You can insult me for having Bruxism You may insult me for my mistakes But there is one thing I will never let you do, You may never insult my queen addiction.
Not a coincidence. May was a massive Hendrix fan. Though of course the royal pomp of Queen would have demanded this too. It was British tradition to end concerts on the anthem.
After finding out Elizabeth the II Passed away, I feel like I needed to listen to this. I think this song is appropriate enough to mourn the loss of one of the best queens in the world. Rest In Peace Elizabeth and Rest in Peace Freddie. God Save the Queen 🕊
Freddie loved the Queen and the pomp he even designed the band's logo based on the royal emblem. I remember the day he died and now the Queen. RIP Freddie. RIP Queen.
This is eerie: It was his last public concert performance, and the last song was God save the Queen. Elisabeth's last public appearance was the jubilee in June 22 with God save the Queen as a closer. Now it will be God save the King for 80-100 years minimum.
"Thank you, you beautiful people. You've been a tremendous... you've been a really special audience. Thank you very much. Good night, sweet dreams, we love you."
From one Queen to another!....May Queen Elizabeth the 2nd be having afternoon tea with Freddie Mercury in heaven, discussing their tales of being the Queens of the UK. Rest in peace your Majesty and Rest in peace His Majesty. Love always xxx ❤🎤👑
This is a day that will go down in history, I may not be anywhere related to England, but I'm sure the world is shocked, as am I and many others, long live the Queen R.I.P
@d wood Look at the band's official logo/crest, with particular attention to the crown in the middle. Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”
I hate listening to this. It's great, but every time I hear it I think of the end of the freddie mercury tribute concert. That part made me cry so bad and hearing this makes me want to cry again...
My favourite part of this rendition is the very end at 0:52, where Brian plays that amazing descending line. The guitar tone changing from very regal and bright to that warm and silvery tone is so amazing. Plus the chord progression doing that awesome deceptive resolution with the V64 to V, and then to IV instead of I just creates for such an emotional ending to a song. Beautiful rendition.
God save our gracious Queen Long live our noble Queen God save the Queen Send her victorious Happy and glorious Long to reign over us God save the Queen
God save our gracious queen, long live our noble queen, god save the queen,send her victorious,happy and glorious, long to rein over us,god save the queen
I always loved this version of our national anthem the best, whenever I’ve heard of this, I got the chills, goose bumps and it made me smile how brilliant this is
Little did they know, Brian May's sonic wizardry insured the Queen would live as long as the tools of his trade did- the Red Special and the Deacy Amp.
@@THEJI2012 sí, entiendo que muriera.

"Well here at BBC 1, if we stay on past 3:00 in the morning we get paid huge amounts of overtime. So we've been told to make sure we don't, and to say goodnight instead. Goodnight."

My dad has got a DVD with Queen's greatest hits. I used to watch it all the time as a kid, this is the intro and it always scared me sm, I don't know why😂
Also played at the end of every live concert of Queen, my favourite British rock band. My favourite members of Queen are the late Freddie Mercury and the two living members of Queen, Brian May and Roger Taylor.
Seriously?! As if Queen never used foul language or depicted nudity in their music videos or on stage. Their music videos for "Bicycle Race" and "Body Language" featured sexual themes and gratuitous nudity. It's naive and pointless to make comments claiming "0% nudity / 0% profanity" on older music videos, as it makes the artist seem more genuine than today's artists. Queen emerged during the sexual revolution of the 1970s...and Freddie was no sexual prude. Best believe they indulged in nudity and profanity, even if it wasn't explicitly shown.

May Her Majesty rest in peace. I will play this song over and over again today.
That guitar tone...
Callum Kilby ikr! I know it was custom built and stuff but I just wonder what pedals and stuff he used to get this awesome sound!
The Red Special!
Silent Studios Skits just his red special, a cranked Vox ac30 and a treble booster, the Cornish has the fullest sound.
@@ozzydetxemendy9471 i dont know if this one has it but Brian has an amp that John's dad made for him that gives Red Special an extraordinary sound
yes the red special sounds unique in every way but this is a lot of harmonizing, knownig brian as a perfectionist, he propably recorded this track on track and didnt use any pedals, dont know if there was an harmonizing effect at that time.. when I think of brian may I think of a sustainless continues harmonized sound like this, or the last bit of the bohemian rhapsody solo...brian is just another level..
Wtf? I was listening to it on the album playlist and i thought to myself, "what the hell is innuendo doing in a night at the opera?" Then the guitar riff comes, wow... bamboozled.
haha
Hahaha, nice. Innuendo is sadly underrated lol
Honestly, the best ending for the best rock album of the history.
This arrangement is a prime example of how well Brian May's sound and the Deacy Amp go together.
@@user-cj8jg4io1l please keep these kind of comments away from Queen comment sections
Another Queen has left us today. Her impact on the world will always be remembered. Rest In Peace Queen Elizabeth II
THE END OF THE WEMBLEY CONCERT IN 1986!!!
And almost any other concert from 1974
yes my friend!
and the most of their concerts, was like a tradition
All ends of concerts of Queen to 1974 to 1986
in 1985
This breaks the heart sincerely me, every time I hear it I remember Freddie King and dress. RIP FREDDIE MERCURY
Absolute Genius!
Why this man doesn't appear in the top guitarist polls is beyond me.
Utterly unique! A true one off.

It is September 8th, 2022 and her majesty the queen passed away. God save the queen.
If Jimi Hendrix made his version of the "Star Spangled Banner", Brian May made his version of "God Save the Queen".
Not a coincidence. May was a massive Hendrix fan. Though of course the royal pomp of Queen would have demanded this too. It was British tradition to end concerts on the anthem.
@@chequereturned
Not to mention, Brian made his own version of Hendrix's "Purple Haze".
