    No one then or now has ever commanded a stage and an audience like Freddie. No. One.

      REQUEST:
      Someday, could you also please react to one more live performance of:
      “Somebody To Love”
      Live at MILTON KEYNES BOWL in 1982
      …The Milton Keynes rendition is actually the version that Queen included in their compilation of BEST live performances!

    Cant go wrong with Queen! The Live Aid Concert is a must watch with Queen. A lot of people say it’s the best 22 minutes of live music. Freddie Mercury had the audience in the palm of his hands. Amazing.

    Freedy always said that he is not Queen in interviews. He is the lead singer of the Queen band. That there are 4 guys equal. Queen is 4 guys who wrote nr 1 songs, they all sing, play multi instruments, and write songs. Queen is in 2 Hall of Fame as a writer and as a band.

    Actually, it was totally, IN CONTROL! Those guys rehearsed to within an inch of their lives. They employed glances, hand gestures, nods, facial expressions to project what would happen next. They each knew every nuance, every subtle gesture. Every live performance you see is ALWAYS perfection. Queen was always in sync. And, that drummer, Roger Taylor, could vocally hit notes that Freddie called his dog whistle. Implying that some notes were so high they could only be heard by dogs. All while shredding his kit.

    I was lucky enough to see them live in 76 for the Night at the Opera tour. We were in the orchestra pit close enough to touch them. Brian May spoke to us during the show and asked us what song we wanted to hear. I chose Keep Yourself Alive. Freddie gave me long stem rose during the encore and people were wildly trying to rip it out of my hands. He called me darling. My best friend dared me to touch his bare foot and of course I did. Roger Taylor gave her his drumsticks. One of the best concerts of my life besides of course Led Zeppelin. ✌️♥️🎶

    QUEEN! I was there...1981...believe me, the place was going crazy!! Never tire of re-living this fantastic concert! The entire band was on on point. The backup vocals by Roger - hitting those high notes - and Brian, too - are pure harmony! With rare exceptions, QUEEN is meant to be heard LIVE. The band always adds something different and very special to their concerts...their energy is amazing. Thanks for your great reaction! Hope you get a chance to see "Who Wants to Live Forever" LIVE in Budapest, 1986. I think you would enjoy it.

    The emotions that cross your face as you progress thru the song are priceless. Half way you picked up a bottle to take a drink and put it down again (I imagine you subconsciously realized it would distract you from what you were experiencing.) Those feelings are what we feel each time we listen too. This performance never gets old no matter how many times I listen/watch. Mind blowing performance by Queen. 🤯

And I love that you recognized the amazing vocals by Roger. I don’t believe you have reacted to the light versions of fat bottomed girl’s, but that one is really fun, And I absolutely love the live version of another one bites the dust from Montreal 1981.

    Somebody To Love was the nearest Freddie ever came to the sound of the soul music that he so adored.

Freddie himself was even more proud of Somebody To Love than Bohemian Rhapsody. 👊 Boom!

    And now you know why they are considered one of, if not the best, live band of the ‘70-80’s. You can’t go wrong choosing any of their live concerts. Wembly 1986, Montreal 1981 & of course, Live Aid. Those three are top tier. Choose your favorite song from them, or better yet, react to the whole concerts.
    Great reaction (& yes, Roger Taylor is no slouch at backing vocals (he also had his own side band in the 80’s where he was lead singer). Brian May adds a warm lower tone, when/if he remembers to get to his microphone in time to join in 😄

Musically different but similar in that it took all 4 extremely talented musicians to make the magic happen. Freddie stood out with his charisma but the other 3 band members are so flippin talented and Queen would not have been without the input from all four.
