- The purpose of me requesting they react to songs like these is just to expose them to music they may or may not have heard before, to expand their horizons and to sate my curiosity over whether they will like them or not.
I am responsible for the song choices, what I choose to request so if want to complain about that then that's fair game but if want to complain about Ashtyn or Jon's reaction just remember this is not their channel and by proxy it is very unlikely they will read your comments unless I personally pass the message on next time I speak to them...however I have zero interest in passing on any vindictive, rude or spiteful comments.
They do these for me and I just post many of them here in case other people might also be curious about what they think of these songs too after they send me the videos and I have watched them myself. As mentioned this is not their channel, if you wish to visit their channel it can be found listed below.

Brian May wrote this song for the sad scene in Highlander where the main character sees his wife grow old and die when he hasn’t aged a day. Highlander is a very under appreciated film and I hugely recommend it
Peter Diamond plays Aman Fazil the Polish national that Connor MacLeod kills in the parking garage at the wrestling match.
John Deacon playing the double bass. Fantastic.
And I think that most people, when they watch this video, don't even notice/realize that little fact !
This song was written for a sad scene in Highlander where the main character sees his wife grow old and eventually die whilst he hasn’t aged that much hence the title ‘Who wants to live forever’.
These two always look like they hate each other 😳
RIP Freddie Mercury ❤
You should watch 'The Highlander' and see where this song is used in the film. Makes it even more powerful.
It was when connor MacLeod wife was getting ready to die and she told him to always light a candle to remember her
@@lavarking1706 Agreed that was a great scene.
"Such a beautiful voice" really my dear....more queen please...enjoy your gueen journey...especially the live shows in wembley, budapest, rock in rio....tnxsomuch...true legends never die...freddie's voice brian's guitar awesome...
written by lead guitarist Brian May brilliant singer song writer in Queen.
The line which always chokes me up is right at the beginning 'There's no place for us, there's no time for us, what is this thing which builds our dreams, then slips away from us..' Believe it or not, next year it'll be 30 years since the great man passed away. It's hardly believable but at least he left us his amazing voice and so many glorious You Tube videos. God rest his dear soul.
Totally love Queen, what a group, Freddie, Roger, Brian & Deke. In love since 1975. Love the reactions.
Not sure if you've seen highlander or know the story. The song is about an immortal who marries a mortal woman, against the advice of his mentor who knows what will happen. She grows old, he does not.
He stays with her all her life, and watches her die. Then he buries her.
The prize, he and the other immortals are fighting for, is mortality, so that they can finally grow old and die.
There can be only one.
Just like Freddie. 😥
Freddie Mercury mesmerising voice is so powerfull goosbumps.
the most beautiful sad song ever
This was such a sad moment in the movie, the love of his life dying in his arms as an old woman while he remains immortal.
I have nothing against the reaction guys, but listening to this Brian's/Queen work of art with one headphone is like driving a Ferrari with Kick scooter wheels.
@Fernando Rodrigues - agree 100%.
Sometimes I wish people form US (any state) would just take time to go to other countries (or even States), live there for a while, experience the different cultures and so on... And then do comments like that. From anybody from any of EU countries (and probably from some of any other countries too)... yeah, I can only agree with you 100%.
One headphone? My god. Just buy 2 of them, one for each other, a proper ones, invest a nbit of money into the audio - anything good from Sennheiser or even a middle/top level Audio-Technica monitoring headphones (personally I'm using middle ground in a lot of cases, Audio-Technica M50x/M70x in cases like that, with a very good audio card in a PC or a good audio equipment). Any monitoring headphones will probably be better at this point. And none of that wireless crap at all.
Feel sorry for the modern generation they have no real legends of music left
R.I.P Freddie...giving singing lessons to the angels in heaven now.
Freddie Mercury the biggest genius in music history
Great song. The performance of this live at Wembley is unbelievable.
From the movie”Highlander” , he is immortal but his wife Heather is not. When she is 80 and on her deathbed she asks why he stayed; his answer is because he loves her now as much as the day he married her. Four thousand years later he lights a candle for her birthday just as she requested on her deathbed. Hence, the song asks who wants to live forever which means you will have to love forever. Watch the Tenors version as vampires who choose suicide rather than loving forever; Lindsay Stirling on violin.
Sorry, minor correction for you. Four hundred years, not thousand. Few immortals lives four thousand years. Ramirez was only around two thousand. The TV series had a few characters past 1k, one around 1400, one around 5k (at least until his fellow horsemen showed up).
@@gestaltdude Methos
@@mikeyates7931 Yes, Methos, then the rest of the Four Horsemen, though as we know, they didn't last long once revealed. I was just trying to avoid spoilers so those who hadn't seen the show could still be surprised.
Your cats are having a great time on your sofa. I love watching them.
Yes! Freddie, the consummate cat lover, would approve.
If anyone deserved to live for ever it was you Freddy ❤
Queen did the music for Flash Gordon 1980 and in that Vultan says before he attacks the rocket ship Oh well who wants to live forever.They then did Highlander music 1985 or 86 with this song in it.
When the dude likes Queen and the GF yawns.....bye bye compatibility.
This is my 2nd all time favourite song after Too Much Love Will Kill You. If you not reacted to that song I recommend it.
Freddie was just the best 💔💓💓
“Queen’s so good though, it’s hard to compare him to anyone else.” He is not Queen. Queen... is Queen. He (the singer whom you refer) was Freddie Mercury. The band... is Queen. Mercury was known for getting very angry when reporters labeled him as Queen and neglected the band.
From Highlander, 1986. In the film Freddie sings the first verse. A classic song from a timeless if extremely underrated film.
One of my favorite songs by Queen Freddie is excellent He looks fantastic btw in the suit
80's Power Ballad 💯%
🤘🎸🔊🎵🎶
Freddie power!!!
This song really captures the feeling of the movie, which I highly recommend you both watch sometime. The pain of an immortal watching the one they love grow old and die while they stay young. Powerful stuff.
And if you like the movie do not and I mean DO NOT watch the second one, it ruins the whole history of the characters from the first movie. Of course that just my opinion i might be wrong.
GutterWorx310 Zoose Don’t watch any of the sequels. Maybe skip to the TV series.
This song was sound track of the movie Highlander. If you think I got to see them twice live. Freddie Mercury may not be with us anymore but Queens music will live forever and generations well after my life has ended.But everyone has to pay tribute to the members of the band that are still with us they all played a part in something that will never be recreated
It's worth watching the 86 live of this its sadder but far more emotional
First time singing it,he had just told the audience to ignore rumours of breaking up that they'll be together till they die
Early the next year he finds out he has aids
This is from the highlander soundtrack I strongly advise watching it
Queen was asked to provide the soundtrack for the movie Highlander. The main character is immortal, and falls in love. He then has to watch her age and die in his arms. This inspired Brian May to write this song. In total, they did 8 songs for the movie. Check out “One year of Love” written by bassist John Deacon. Freddie KILLS the vocals.
"There can be only one!"
if you go out looking for the soundtrack album ,there isnt an official one. The songs from the movie can be found on the album Its a Kind Of Magic. That album also includes One Vision from the movie Iron Eagle.
One Year of Love = one of my fave Queen songs
@@gutterworx310zoose4 True.
GutterWorx310 Zoose Also, Hammer to Fall is featured in Highlander. From the previous album, The Works (1984).
Brian May wrote this for the film "Highlander".
And he came up with it on a taxi when he return after the first meeting with the people who make the film.
I have to admit that while watching these videos, my attention was drawn to the races playing in the background, especially the smallest kitten one that i was watching!! 😻😻😻
we shall never see his like again.... 😥
Brian May wrote this.
Queen legend! Mercury god extraterrestral of music! Phenomenon number one!!!
FM...JUST A GENIUS!!!
GLORY FOREVER TO FM💪💪💪
Guy's, get over-the-ear head phones, embrace and feel the sound...Freddy was a beautiful auditor , his voice was legendary.
It’s sad they didn’t know the context of why that song was used in that highlander scene?
Is that a question or a Statement?
Queen best ever!
Watch tha song live from Wembley.....
For real guys, you have to see Marc Martel.. Go on his channel you will see many mind-blowing videos
this is rock opera
no, its a ballad, with classic orchestration
There's no time for us
俺たちには時間がない
There's no place for us
俺たちには居場所もない
What is this thing that builds our dreams, yet slips away from us
夢を見ることが出来ても、その夢はやがて手からすべり落ちていってしまうのさ
Who wants to live forever?
誰が永遠の命を望んでいるというんだ？
Who wants to live forever?
誰が永遠に生き続けたいというのか？
There's no chance for us
俺たちにチャンスなどない
It's all decided for us
全ては運命のままだ
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us
この世で用意されているのは、ほんの一瞬の甘い時間だけさ
Who wants to live forever?
誰が永遠の命を望んでいるというんだ？
Who wants to live forever?
誰が永遠に生き続けたいというのか？
Who dares to love forever
一体誰が永遠に愛し続けたいと願うのか
Oh, when love must die?
愛もいつかは消えてなくなる運命であるのに
But touch my tears with your lips
それでもお前の唇で俺の涙をぬぐってほしい
Touch my world with your fingertips
お前の指先で俺の世界に触れてほしいんだ
And we can have forever
そうすれば俺たちは永遠に生きていられる
And we can love forever
そうすれば俺たちは永遠の命を手にする
Forever is our today
永遠とは今この生きている時間なのだ
Who wants to live forever?
誰が永遠の命を望んでいるというんだ？
Who wants to live forever?
誰が永遠に生き続けたいというのか？
Forever is our today
永遠とは今この生きている時間なのだ
Who wants to live forever?
誰が永遠の命を望んでいるというんだ？
Who wants to live forever?
誰が永遠に生き続けたいというのか？
Forever is our today
永遠とは今この生きている時間なのだ
This tune is Real ,Haunting ,sad ,and very powerful 🎶🎵
Who waits forever anyway...
Glad to see some emotion from u both. Was worried after the other vids I watch that u couldn’t feel it.
Wow 🥰 loved it 😍 thanks liked subscribed 😁❤️ Freddie Mercury ❤️ more queen reactions please 😻
Shut up
Hmm..the young lady isn't playing with the cellphone. Usually I noticed she seems to be distracted by it..
Ridzuan Md Nazir Maybe it was put in comment section?
She looks up background info about Queen and what she's listening to at the moment. Give her a break.
@@maelcaha5111 So how did you know that..she told you? Lol
Ridzuan Md Nazir well, you've got a point here. Of course I don't know for sure. I just remember that she put her phone down and then added some info about Mercury or Queen. To be perfectly honest she did seem distracted and that distracted me. I do find that many reactors seem not to experience the performances themselves and then I think they really miss out on how great they are. Which makes me wonder why I watch them at all. In other words, why do I want people to love what I love and to react the way I want them to react? But this is a bigger question and longer answer than you probably bargained for. LOL back at you!
@@maelcaha5111 Thanks for the wall of text bwa ha ha lololololol
man, i could give you a vast list of songs from the 80s and 90s that would blow you away. the verve with the drugs dont work and champagne supernova by oasis are just two of the more famous ones you should try
Live version really powerful too (at Wembley)
Whether it succeeds in capturing all the emotions and all the thoughts associated with death and with life or not, this song certainly tries to. In lyrics like, "There's no time for us ..... ", it starts of as a wail and a complaint and a grievance by noting and by pointing out to the listener the fleetingness of time and consequently the non-permanent or the transitory nature of life in time itself , but then also recognizes that the times in our lives we treasure the most are the few precious moments when we are truly in love with, when we are truly in communion with, when we are truly at peace with the world we live in, as an inevitable consequence of which we end up being truly in love with, truly in communion with and truly at peace with ourselves. Even if these times tend to be very brief and even if they tend to be set far apart, yet it is in only in looking forward to and in anticipation of and in hoping to experience those few magical, elevated and captivating moments in our life that we strive and we persevere to live for, much like the only time that makes a year's worth of long hard schooling or a years worth of long hard work and labor bearable and tolerable is always just the month of short vacation at the end of the year, whose happy memories we hope to cherish and we know will serve as the fuel to carry us and to propel and to transport us through the rigor of the next season. But that is not all the message this song tries to covey either. It is very unlike the songs by Queen to just note the irony and the impossibility of a situation without also offering a resolution and a remedy and a cure for it, which in this case we only know all too well, which is that; it is not the span or the duration of our life that has been granted to us, in other words it is not for how long we have lived our life that ever really matters to us, rather it is how well we have lived it for the time that we were appointed and we were privileged enough to live it that always matter's to us; and though we have been frittering away our chances and our opportunities and our energies and throwing away our whole lives in-fact perhaps on our assured knowledge and supreme confidence that god is a god of infinite patience and endless second chances, it does not neglect or shy away from sounding off if not also laboring the point, which co-incidentally is somewhat true to life's irony itself. In lyrics like ,"Touch my tears with your lips,.....", this songs ends by extending an invitation and making an appeal to the listener to take the time and to take the trouble and to make the decision and to make the effort to care and to love all the time, and thus to live a life which is always on a "Permanent Vacation".
It's from a movie
I miss you Freddie....soso much
U can't go wrong with Queen!!!
A few numpties on here making negative comments, why? if you don't like the reactions then just piss off to another thread, no need to make nasty remarks.
Nothing personal but the cats in the background were awesome to watch
More entertaining then the 2 dead ass reactors 😂
Like freddie's cats...
Highlander great great movie
Watch queens you take my breath away live 1970s
Die Kätzchen im Hintergrund sind so süß.Sie stehlen den beiden die Show -)))
When you get you new headphones, check out the live version in Budapest! So powerful! ruclips.net/video/lPDkO6Y3wh0/видео.html
a song written when he knew he was dying.. what a star he was.. RIP Freddie
Written by Brian after watching advance clip. Not about Freddie.
@@dutovdevlich3781 correct i got the songs mixed up..
Зевать не стоило бы в камеру когда поёт гений.
Зачем она вообще там нужна? Её зевок всё сказал. Я смотрю реакции получше чем эта убогая.
Forever
Solo piano
Queen
Got distracted by the little kiten playing in the background 😃
Brilliant song.
👑
I would see your Reaction to,Queen Somebody to Love (Live Montreal´81) It would be soo Great!!!
Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé - Barcelona
They are doing another Queen reaction for me currently, the one picked this time for them to react to is Show Must Go On, should be interesting to see their reaction to that one I think. Not sure when will be posted though, hopefully soon. There is also a couple Michael Jackson songs in current batch I just requested along with Queen.
The Greates!
How can someone react to this song without knowing the context of it in the film Highlander… Ludicrous!!!
Love the Kitty
Don’t give up by Kate Bush & Peter Gabriel please
As others have stated, a song written by Freddie about his own impending death from then untreatable HIV. He passed in 1995 iirc, and the current modern treatments came out in 1996.
If he'd been able to hang on for another year.... Life's so cruel.
No, Queen was asked to do a song for the movie Highlander and Brian May wrote this after watching clips from the movie. They ended up doing around 9 more songs.
Freddie Mercury left us in 1991 Come on now!
You're wrong twice in one comment... As stated by both reactions, Freddie didn't write the song, Brian May did, and Freddie died in 1991, not 1995.
Spreading misinformation is cool
Actually freddie passed away in 1991 on the 24th November at 45 years old
Who lives forever anyway?
ideas ...
If had the DeLorean i`d go back and see all the greatest bands live :):)
you should do live at wembly fantastic
Hazard (Richard Marx)
One of ny aunt's favourite songs
I always think of this song as a eulogy of Freddy's life. This was the last great song they had before his death, and he was dying already when it was written.
You should have watched the Highlander video you would have been bawling like a baby.
hi wos the best artists in 80 - 2000 + years old.
Great song live...kittens funny
Those cats are distracting
Was thinking the same. Listening to the song and watching kittens.
At least they're more fun to watch then their owners.
hey guys I ting you need to hearing to the enigma band from the 90s great great band yue know enigma like your channel name
GREAT 👍👏
All saints never ever and war of nerves and also mis teeq scandalous please
Highlander
please leasing to enigma band from the 90s
Freddie Mercury Barcelona
try much much better live concert1986 live at wembley
Wembley version is better.
I agree with you
No Budapest is best version
You listened to the wrong version. Freddie mercuries version was much better than this.
I am decoy
Botox is bad mkay
Whats so funny is not their reaction..it’s our reaction at how stupid they look that they are just finding this song now! 😳wtf!? Who are these people?? They need to clean their room!!!👉
What? I think your on the wrong site mate, try googling "mean spirited twats", then head over there.
No offence, but these are probably the most boring "reactors" i've seen so far, and i've seen quite a few.... Just being honest here.
I even watched several of their videos to try not to be unfair...
Man.... no emotion, no enthusiasm..., no passion..., or interest in knowing song or artist's facts...,...
Sorry guys... but... Are you sure that you even LIKE music at all...? 😫🥱
Nevertheless i still give you props for also helping to keep great music alive and present on youtube
please leasing to enigma band from the 90s
I will have them react to some Enya and Enigma in future, probably some more Celtic Woman and also perhaps Robert Miles and others too but currently waiting on them to send me some more reactions to requests just recently made. The ones I just mentioned were not in the current batch so will have to wait for those further down the line.
wow wow guys you make my so so happy thet you are saying that yue are going to listen enya enya wow I'm love so much the enya music Celtic music thank you thank you guys
Sadeness
@@KaiatheSiberianHusky I was thinking personally more along the lines of Principles Of Lust, TNT For The Brain and Beyond The Invisible. I'll be having them react to ERA songs too along side Enigma, Celtic Woman, Enya and others etc. Reason I mention that is because Sadeness always reminds me more of ERA than Enigma even though was an Enigma song.
@@dragoonlordz I just sadeness so if people are reading the comment they can have a song to look up if they looked up enigma and that is their most used one even in commercials.
