Great performance Queen always were amazing live. The energy is electric! Btw everyone knows Freddie wears the Superman shirt and Superman wears a Freddie shirt! Lol😂
This performance is a masterpiece... you need to listen & watch it again, without interruptions...their transitions are other worldly...they practiced until all their songs were perfect. Brilliance, dedication & heart make Queen the best band I've ever heard.
This was very nice of Freddy who wrote the song that gave a good part to Roger...almost all the end part he was the singer..., and a best time to Brian for improvising, and for John which has no time for solo and singing, he stood him right beside himself so in every camera you can see him ....it shows how he was thinking the band ...as a band...
The bass player’s name is John Deacon...and you said that he’s “fine”..well now, you obviously haven’t listened to a lot of Queen’s songs...try “Liar” and “Dragon Attack” to see what you think of Deaky’s bass playing...Hi John, I hope you’re keeping well🌺
You should check out Freddies impromptu live from Wembley '86, and Exercises in Free Love, they might change your view of Freddies range, which was phenomenal.
Both song is added to our queue ty so much! We take all request in orders, so might be some time, BUT for the request, and he already impressed me alot, but im hungry for more (Caspar) :)
Peter Hence (aka Ratty) was Freddie'sand John's personal roadie. One of his jobs was to be the mic wrangler for Freddie. Ratty spent most of the concert kneeling behind the piano waiting to take or give Freddie his microphone.
YAY!! MY FAVORITE SONG EVER!! Queen is perfection 🤩 Love it! Piano skills live 👉 Play The Game, My Melancholy Blues, Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy, White Queen, You Take My Breath Away, In The Lap Of The Gods/Seven Seas Of Rhye medley …..
Ty so much! We added those song we haven't on queue already, and btw, White Queen, is already online, we uploaded it some hours ago, so if u want to see that is on our channel! Ty for all your request, and i KNEW Lap of the gods/Seven Seas was a medley haha, we wasn't ready for than when we recorded so we separated all videos, haha we're still new to Queen, ty again!
Check out Exercises in free love -Freddie recorded the demo tape for Montserrat Caballe SINGING HER part. It was his impersonation of Montserrat"s vocal style. BTW Freddie's astonishing voice it's not up for dabate it's just fact. Even scientific study confirms Freddie Mercury had an unparalleled singing voice. That what makes his voice so special was extremely fast vibrato 7.04 Hz and subharmonics. He was able to create several more layers of harmonics than anyone else. Freddie was using a subharmonics by vibrating his ventricular folds, a technique usually found only in Tuvan throat singers. One of the conclusions from the studies was that "Mercury was vibrating something in his throat that even Pavarotti couldn't move and that kind of creates a very typical vocal fingerprint"
Ty so much for your long comment! I (Caspar) can see i may be really wrong about Freddie's voice high and depth, your request is already requested so is in our queue, we take them by orders, so might be some time but we will get there, and Queen is our most requested band so far, so i guess we gonna hear all songs from them haha :D ty again, is great to learn something!
@@CelcaReact Queen Fat bottomed girls live at Bowl 82, Under pressue live at Wembley 86, Save me Montreal 81, White queen night at the Odeon 75, Breakthru official video
If you want to check Freddie's ability on the piano, you should react to White Queen, the night at the odeon Hammersmith 1975, the “dialogue” between Brian's guitar and Freddie's piano, will leave you speechless. Regarding Roger's voice, I would recommend "Say it's not true", a song that he wrote in homage to Nelson Mandela and that he also dedicates to Freddie, when I heard it for the first time, I was shocked, I hope you accept my suggestions. I love to see you!
I have some good new for u! We take all request, and in order, and actually we already got White Queen requested, so is gonna be up in 2 days! Ty so much for your comment it means alot! :)
Nice reaction! Freddie has sung higher notes then Roger, but both of them had amazing high falsettos. In this very performance Freddie sings three G#5 notes, which is high, it is the highest notes in this performance. People just don't always realize it, because Freddie's voice still has a lot of depth, richness, fullness and power on high notes. His voice sounds lower then what he is actually singing. Roger's highest notes in this performance was A4, so Freddie sang almost an octave higher on this performance. Roger's falsetto had a distinctive sound which is why they liked to use it in the 70's. In the 80's it was Freddie who did all of the highest falsetto. In Bohemian Rhapsody the high note Roger sings is a Bb5, it is actually a note Freddie performed live every now and again. Roger has also sung lower then Freddie. They were both tenors but different types of tenors, so their voices had different qualities. The highest note on a Queen album is in the song It's Late -Queen, it is great song, so you can check it out. Freddie does a E6 note in that song. Vocal range Roger Taylor E2 - E6, Freddie Mercury vocal range F2 - F#6. If you really want to see Freddie's piano skills check out White Queen - Queen live at the Hammersmith Odeon 1975, or Queen Medley - live at the Rainbow 1974 (featuring the songs, In The Lap Of The Gods, Killer Queen, March Of The Black Queen, Bring Back That Leroy Brown). There is some nice falsetto from Roger on In The Lap Of The Gods also around G5, like Freddie did in this performance. You can see how different their voices sound on the same high notes.
Im (Caspar) not gonna lie im not a vocalist, and i was so sure Roger always did the high notes and freddy the low, like "FOR MEEEEEE" on Bohemian Rhapsody. But so many of u mention that Freddie's voice range is higher than we think, Late Queen is added to our queue, and the good news is White Queen was requested some times ago, and we take queue in order so gonna be up in 2 videos, also the medley in the lap of the gods, Killer Queen is added to our Queue, We also already have March of the black Queen Requested, but Bring Back that Leroy Brown is now added to our Queue! TY SO MUCH, for your time to wrote this long information about Roger and Freddie's voice!
Freddie once said when he was interviewed by someone "when I die, who cares" I thought many times, why did he say😔, we see now, all the queen fans miss him so much
I'm happy that you realize how good are queen but freddie is just outstanding voice and performer skills just the one and only greatness really unbelieveable voice insane vocals and yes Roger is very good in high notes and Brian a huge guitarist one of the best ones in rock world just alegend thanks you were awesome 👌
She is in GOOD COMPANY: Freddie always said that he thought "Somebody To Love" was actually a better song than "Bohemian Rhapsody"... and it was always his favorite song to perform. Freddie actually had a four octave vocal range and sang some UNBELIEVABLY HIGH notes on their studio recordings... You are right that in the live shows, high parts were sung by Roger Taylor in order to save strain on Freddie's throat. (From the mid-1970s on, Freddie had lymph nodes on his vocal chords which would cause his voice problems if he wasn't careful.) YOU SHOULD REACT TO: "EXERCISES IN FREE LOVE", THE ORIGINAL 1987 demo. (Audio only; there's no official MV.) (There is also a later/posthumous re-orchestrated re-released version; but you can hear Freddie's vocals BETTER in the original.)
ty so much for your support and long comment again, we can really see you're a BIG Queen fan, we will add your request to our queue, we take all songs in orders, thats why is now we got second Queen song, BUT good news is, the next 6 days is all Queen reaction, and we have more recorded, and now with even more request we gonna listen to more Queen, can't wait for it! :) ty for all your great support it means alot to us, have a great day!
Freddie did high falsetto every night he performed, it was easier for him to sing in falsetto. He always did impromptus, with those high 5th octave and sometimes 6th octave notes. He just liked to sing in full chest voice, which is far more powerful sounding and also more difficult to maintain.
Ty so much for your request! The good news is, we already had that requested some times ago, and we take all request in orders, so actually White queen gonna be up not next, but after! :)
Freddie was famous for timing, Roger is one of the best singing drummers, John Deacon was an excellent bass player and Brian is Brian with his "singing" guitar. Great reaction! People often think of Freddie as a pianist, but he occasionally played guitar. What kind of guitarist he was? Brian May told it: "He was very good on the guitar, very unorthodox - all downstrokes. He wrote the riff for “Ogre Battle” [from 1974’s Queen II]. I used to play it with up- and downstrokes, but he was all downstrokes. Imagine how fast his right hand was moving! He had a frenetic energy on the guitar, which came across very well in that song. He played the rhythm on “Crazy Little Thing Called Love.” I wanted to sound as good as Freddie did on that record, which was damn good.” As a massive fan of Jimi Hendrix, Freddie taught himself to play the guitar, after some point he gave up on the idea. In live situations he only played rhythm guitar on Crazy Little Thing Called Love.
first at all, ty for all that information about the band, that is REALLY useful, second i (Caspar) actually knew that Freddie played guitar on that "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" because we play that sadly as the only Queen song in my band, and they told and showed me a live version of it, and then i saw it, i love that song so much btw! I play keys, and is really blew away how skilled Freddie was, because im not a big fan of classic piano, im a boogie woogie, blues, and rock keyboard player, so i don't like classic piano that much, but the way Queen added that piano into so many great songs, and rock sound, i love it! :)
I just subscribed and loved your video. By the way, Somebody to Love, is my favorite Queen song! Also, as many times as I've seen this particular performance I have never before noticed Freddie sitting on his leg, It is a nice little fact you pointed out. Keep the videos comming.
I saw Queen several times beginning in 1975 when I was 18 years old. They were absolutely perfect every time. Freddie said this song was better song writing than Bohemian Rhapsody.
Thanks so much, kids! I like that you give it up for the BAND - other songs in this concert are also amazing -- especially "Save Me" - where Brian starts on piano, with guitar in his LAP - then the smoothest switch when Brian shows up on guitar solo and Freddie is suddenly on keys - these guys were so "in synch" --ruclips.net/video/yUyPyTn-IS4/видео.html - look forward to more of your reactions!
The bass sounds fine? Ha ha ha ha Deacon is an incredible bass player and amazing song writer. Check out some bass emphasized songs that he wrote like another one bites the dust, Under Pressure or his favorite Dragon Attack! Also he built the amp for guitarist Brian May called Deacy’s amp since he’s an electrical engineer. Brian says no experts have been able to duplicate it. All of Queen were geniuses. Freddie’s voice was a miracle. This song was Freddie’s favorite too.
Enjoyed your reaction so much. I think she'd really enjoy the live version of Bohemian Rhapsody from this very concert in Montreal 1981. Queens official videos are awesome but they are really in their element live.
Nice reaction you 2!! They really were something else. I suggest some 70’s Queen Stone Cold Crazy live at the Rainbow. Or some later stuff like One Vision live at Wembley. Much bless to you and keep up the good work!
Freddie and Roger both have (had) a 4 octave vocal range. Freddie was much more than a piano player and singer he was an entertainer. He would never disappoint his audience by sitting and singing the for the entire concert.
If you were talking about the high vocals at the beginning of Bohemian Rhapsody, those voices were all Freddie Mercury. I didn’t know that until very recently but even though the official music video shows all four members singing, those are all Freddie. Roger Taylor is a great singer, don’t get me wrong but he’s not even in Freddie Mercury’s league as fantastic as he is. Freddie just had that special voice that no one will ever match. Great reaction video! You should check out any variation of “Love Of My Life” live but my favorite version is the 1986 Wembley Stadium performance. They also do great versions of the same song in 1981 from Montreal & “Rock In Rio” in 1985. Queen was easily ten times better in live concerts than in studio which you’d think is impossible but somehow it isn’t.
Ty for sharing your info with us, Love of my life, was requested some times ago so it will be up soon we take all request in orders :) Anyways ty for sharing, we love your support, means a lot! And im glad that we learned more about Difference between roger's and Freddie's voice!
Very good reaction, thank you. Another comment on Freddie's voice: his phrasing is very supple. He's not singing on the beat; he plays around with the feel, and sings ahead of and behind the beat with intention, for emotional expression.
So, you don't think Freddie doesn't sing high as Roger? Please check out " Cool Cat " it's another hidden diamond! You won't be disappointed, I guarantee it! I haven't seen many reacting to this song, not many others know about it and that's a darn shame!
I came across u 2 on u tube xi had to watch your face's while Queen was playing and Freddie singing x I lov this song I can sing it backwards x Freddie loved this song better than any song he wrote somebody to lov he was so proud ove it x just saying like x lov Julie xxx
@@CelcaReact please iff u can watch live aid with queen xxx they stole the show x brilliant fantastic and marvellous x it is really worth watching x Freddie was and still is the greatest showman ove all time xx Julie ps I will keep on watching your channel x cheers x
You should check out "Save Me" from this same concert. It was a new song off the Game album, what this tour was about and when I saw them the first time in 1980. You'll see Freddie and Brian on the piano. And yes he's amazing live!
I liked very your reaction! I thought that before she react to Bohemian Rhapsody 86 at Wembley, you must to selected the official video first and the Montreal version live. Hugs for you both👑♥️
Superman is wearing a Freddie Mercury T-shirt!!! Don't EVER pause in Brians guitar solos!!! The bass is not bad??? They are all legends - and enrolled in songwriters Hall of Fame - and the same for Rock Bands. They are out of the world!!! You have a lot to discover yet - have a nice journey .I like somebody to love - in this version better than everything else - - ! and I love that you rcognize Roger - he is a gem - a force of nature - I love him.
Fun reaction! I like this song live better than Bohemian Rhapsody live. If we're talking official videos, it might be a tie. By the way, John's bass in Dragon Attack from this same Montreal concert is phenomenal. It's another killer performance by all four.
React to We Are the World by over 30 Superstar artists they got together and sang this song to raise money for the starving in Africa you'll be totally amazed because the world's too divided for people's come together again like that
Hey guys just come across your ch, please react to live aid you will like it, best performance of all time, David Bowie was due on after Freddy & was heard saying how the f do i follow that, ATB Wayne UK.......
Ty so much for your request, is added to our queue, we take queue by order, so might be some time to we get there, but we have A LOT Queen coming up i can tell, ty again
If you like Somebody to Love more than Bohemian Rhapsody, you are both in good company cuz Freddie said that this was his favorite song of his, and that he thought Somebody to Love was, musically speaking (whatever that meant!), a better song than Bohemian Rhapsody.

One of the greatest live performances ever...,just on this song
Roger Taylor's drumming and vocals are epic. So glad this is on video for future generations to enjoy. We are so blessed.
This performance is a masterpiece... you need to listen & watch it again, without interruptions...their transitions are other worldly...they practiced until all their songs were perfect. Brilliance, dedication & heart make Queen the best band I've ever heard.
This version of Somebody to love is a masterpiese by QUEEN (: THX for a wonderful reaction 👍🇸🇪👍
This was very nice of Freddy who wrote the song that gave a good part to Roger...almost all the end part he was the singer..., and a best time to Brian for improvising, and for John which has no time for solo and singing, he stood him right beside himself so in every camera you can see him ....it shows how he was thinking the band
...as a band...
yes very nice mention ty!
Yes John is usually right behind Freddie when he was on the piano. It probably also helped Freddie Bc they didn’t have ear piece monitors back then.
Queen made a legendary career of great live performances every night, amazing!!
Another great performance from this same show is Dragon Attack. Really, the entire concert was great!!

Nice reaction you 2!! They really were something else. I suggest some 70’s Queen Stone Cold Crazy live at the Rainbow. Or some later stuff like One Vision live at Wembley. Much bless to you and keep up the good work!
Stone Cold Crazy is done here: ruclips.net/video/ZAubXImcSEk/видео.html&ab_channel=CelcaReact
the other is on our queue, ty for your support! :)
@@CelcaReact thankyou 👑
THE GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME, enough said! Freddie actually said that, as far as songwriting, this song is better than Bohemian Rhapsody.
Freddie and Roger both have (had) a 4 octave vocal range. Freddie was much more than a piano player and singer he was an entertainer. He would never disappoint his audience by sitting and singing the for the entire concert.
Ty so much for telling, i (Caspar) can see i was wrong about his range!
Ha fun reaction. Freddie thought somebody to love was a better song too!
Haha is hard to choice and ty so much!
If you were talking about the high vocals at the beginning of Bohemian Rhapsody, those voices were all Freddie Mercury. I didn’t know that until very recently but even though the official music video shows all four members singing, those are all Freddie. Roger Taylor is a great singer, don’t get me wrong but he’s not even in Freddie Mercury’s league as fantastic as he is. Freddie just had that special voice that no one will ever match. Great reaction video! You should check out any variation of “Love Of My Life” live but my favorite version is the 1986 Wembley Stadium performance. They also do great versions of the same song in 1981 from Montreal & “Rock In Rio” in 1985. Queen was easily ten times better in live concerts than in studio which you’d think is impossible but somehow it isn’t.
Ty for sharing your info with us, Love of my life, was requested some times ago so it will be up soon we take all request in orders :) Anyways ty for sharing, we love your support, means a lot! And im glad that we learned more about Difference between roger's and Freddie's voice!
Shout out to the person grabbing his microphone 🎤🎶
Very good reaction, thank you. Another comment on Freddie's voice: his phrasing is very supple. He's not singing on the beat; he plays around with the feel, and sings ahead of and behind the beat with intention, for emotional expression.
So, you don't think Freddie doesn't sing high as Roger? Please check out " Cool Cat " it's another hidden diamond! You won't be disappointed, I guarantee it! I haven't seen many reacting to this song, not many others know about it and that's a darn shame!
I agree: I love this performance (much more than Bohemian Rhapsody) and it affects me every time I see it.
It all happened in my Montreal hometown.
:O WOW
I came across u 2 on u tube xi had to watch your face's while Queen was playing and Freddie singing x I lov this song I can sing it backwards x Freddie loved this song better than any song he wrote somebody to lov he was so proud ove it x just saying like x lov Julie xxx

You should check out "Save Me" from this same concert. It was a new song off the Game album, what this tour was about and when I saw them the first time in 1980. You'll see Freddie and Brian on the piano.
And yes he's amazing live!
Ty so much, it is already on our queue so we will get there, can't wait!
I liked very your reaction! I thought that before she react to Bohemian Rhapsody 86 at Wembley, you must to selected the official video first and the Montreal version live. Hugs for you both👑♥️
Ty so much!
Try White Queen live at the Hammersmith Odeon if you like Freddie’s piano skills!
Ty so much for your comment, we did that yesterday: ruclips.net/video/HnWxXHvyluM/видео.html&ab_channel=CelcaReact
Check out Queen Live Aid it’s known to many as the best concert ever. Keep up the nice videos I have enjoyed them.
We will and ty so much!
Maybe you would enjoy reacting to Soul Brother by Queen...
Freddie said he actually like this better than Bohemian musically:)
If you want to hear a great solo by Brian, check out Brighton Rock on the Live Killers album.
I agree. Bohemian Rhapsody is its own thing for it’s uniqueness and genius. But, I do prefer Somebody to Love as a song.
Ty for your comment!
Superman is wearing a Freddie Mercury T-shirt!!! Don't EVER pause in Brians guitar solos!!! The bass is not bad??? They are all legends - and enrolled in songwriters Hall of Fame - and the same for Rock Bands. They are out of the world!!! You have a lot to discover yet - have a nice journey .I like somebody to love - in this version better than everything else - - ! and I love that you rcognize Roger - he is a gem - a force of nature - I love him.
Freddie as a range of E2 to E6 Roger as a range of F2 to F6
Listen to Freddy Mercury and Montserrat Caballe singing Barcelona, live at La Nit. It is beautiful
already on playlist ty!
Fun reaction! I like this song live better than Bohemian Rhapsody live. If we're talking official videos, it might be a tie. By the way, John's bass in Dragon Attack from this same Montreal concert is phenomenal. It's another killer performance by all four.
Ty so much for your comment! We can't wait to hear Dragon Attack then, we already have it on our queue! Both songs are strong yes!
Freddie liked this song more than BoRhap too, one of his favorite , Freddie. ´s beloved singer Aretha Franklin influence
Not hard to understand, this song is really good! ty for your comment :)
Somebody to Love rules for me over Bohemian Rhapsody!
You should react to "Exercises in free love " by Freddie, it's his singing opera. Freddie DOES sing high notes.
Ty so much, we already have it on our queue so we will react to it! Ty again
watch Brighton Rock Brain May is brilliant
I like it more too, try It’s Late, Brian May wrote it!
Save me, at Montreal was a banger aswell, I'd say he had better vocals in that one too
ty! is on our queue!
React to March of the Black Queen.

She is in good company! Actually Freddie liked STL better than Bohemian Rhapsody too.
You should react to Somebody to Love by the Jefferson Airplane and also their song White Rabbit

It was Freddie’s favorite song
Can't really blame him!
Queem legend
YES!
SRV live please!
Any song
If you like Somebody to Love more than Bohemian Rhapsody, you are both in good company cuz Freddie said that this was his favorite song of his, and that he thought Somebody to Love was, musically speaking (whatever that meant!), a better song than Bohemian Rhapsody.
Very nice to know then it wasn't so bad to say, ty for letting us know!
Freddie had a heavy cold that day his voice was off
Also Freddie liked more Somebody to love than BoRhap 😄
Ya we found out haha :D Lucky guess :D
𝖕𝖗𝖔𝖒𝖔𝖘𝖒
All members of the queen band don't really like the song "I'm in love with my car" except Roger, because that's the song he created😂
Danish ..?😀
