Hey guys hope you enjoyed the video!
Don’t forget to vote in the poll for what Queen song I should add to my upcoming Que!!! 😁🔥
Please react to White Man, All God's People and Is This The World He Created by Queen.
Keep up the good work
@@YourBeingParanoid Your right White Man a great Queen song.
Mike UK.
White man is fantastic, is this the world we created is beautiful
Queen were ahead of their times, so futuristic! I suggest you for next Queen song my melancholy blues or it's late friend!
AndyReacts pls when you have the time see sheer heat attack live bc it’s so good or your my best friend by queen or it’s late by queen
Some trivia here: this punk song was done almost as a joke (Freddie hated Punk and they had some altercation with Sex Pistols' Sid Vicious once). It's a Roger Taylor song but is Freddie that's singing for the most part, faking to be (almost) out of tune; also the obnoxious distortion is done on purpose. It's the only punk song Queen ever recorded. It was meant to be included in the album with the same name (two albums prior) but it wasn't finished yet and probably they thought it wasn't very "Queenesque" so they included it in News of the World instead. In some live shows Freddie destroyed things and went mad on stage during this song just to stay in character.
The ending is pure genius. Hahaha.
Apologies for my bad English. :)
Edit: typos
lalala Your English is great, lalala. Props to you for posting in your non-native language.
lalala your comment was perfect! Thank you for the insight.
Oh, that makes sense. It's not a great Queen song, but now I understand why it exists.
I think Roger did like the new wave scene though
@@rjart4 Yeah, he did, he thought it had a fresh new sound, but the rest of the band didn't like it. That's why the song ended being like a sort of parody (but probably Roger was serious though). :)
Freddy had a not so freindly confrontation with Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols where Sid insulted Freddie and Freddie threw Sid out of the studio, I think Queen recdorded this song to show Sid what the punk sound could sound like if it had Brains , and Talent behind it
The live versions are crazy.
It's crazy.
The song begins in your face and then proceeds to relentlessly pummel you with sound for almost 4 minutes. This was indeed Queen's response to punk. The album was actually being recorded in the same studio at the same time that the Sex Pistols were recording the now iconic punk rock album Never Mind the Bollocks. There is a famous story about Sid Viscous walking into the studio where Queen was recording and asking the band if they had managed to bring ballet to the masses yet. Freddie responded by calling Sid Simon Ferocious. A dustup occurred that resulted in Freddie escorting Sid out of the studio by his collar.
Ha! That must have been just nuts to experience. It's funny to think about those 2, so different, facing off in the same space at the same time. I would never connect them in my mind.
Queen indirectly exposed the Sex Pistols to the world. The Pistols weren't originally booked for the infamous Bill Grundy programme. Queen cancelled at the last minute and Rotten and co. stood in for them. The rest is history.
News of the world was one of their most successful albums. Sheer heart attack is one of Roger's hard rock tracks. It's absolutely magnificent in studio, but even better live! It may seem weird, because it is. But it's so awesome and hardcore. One of my favourite songs by Queen for sure. Thanks Roger! 👑
Absolutely, everything you said.👍
Hanny Hawkins hard agree!! And it’s weird but definitely in a refreshing way.
Alex From AndyReacts Alex, I’d be interested in whether you hear the roots of Sheer Heart Attack in Roger’s first Queen song ‘Modern Times RocknRoll’ off their first album. Roger was always ahead of the curve musically. You’re a more knowledgeable musician than I am. Love your hair, btw. Very rocknroll.
@@alexfromandyandalex8032 I'm glad that you agree with me!
1977 was the height of Punk Rock (I was there lol), it actually started to fade sometime around '79. I don't want to repeat what others have already written about it being Freddie singing lead etc, but I will say this is one of my favorite Queen songs. Thanks for reacting to it, now you need to flip things and react to "Get Down Make Love", there is no Queen song you can go wrong with.
suzi I’m a huge punk fan but didn’t live through the era - well, not old enough to know anything, born in 76 - but when he said “this was a precursor”, I was like, “Son, we need to sit down ...” lol. Nu Wave, straight edge and hardcore started to get popular in the early 80s tho. Most of what we’d classify as punk was over by 80/81. Then you get the pop punk stuff of present day and it gets murky. Some don’t consider it punk at all and others will argue to their last breath groups like Green Day are as punk as The Ramones and Sex Pistols.
@@DonnaCPunk I gotta disagree with one thing you said, "not old enough to know anything" lol You may have been born too late to be there, but just from your comment it's obvious you definitely know what you're talking about! I was just lucky enough to turn 17 in '77 and to live close enough to NYC to be able to drive to CBGB's and Max's Kansas City 3 or 4 times a week and see pretty much most every punk band that came thru the clubs. It was a magical time, a lot of the local bands at the time (Dead Boys, Ramones, Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers, Richard Hell, Blondie, I could go on and on) would hang out at the clubs and back then, everybody knew everybody. It was a scene like no other. If you saw the movie CBGB's so much of that was real, in fact the Dead Boys show in the movie was set on a night I was there and I spent plenty of time hanging with the guys in a lot of the bands. I was even staying at the Chelsea Hotel when Sid and Nancy were living there. Best days of my life!
And yeah, by the '80's it was pretty much over as New Wave and corporate radio and record labels ruined everything. I did get to play at CB's once, I sang in a band but we were a NJ band, by then the scene in NYC was over but I wanted to play at least once at CB's. Those were the days, that's for sure!
@@Suzismymom Yes to everything you said, and you, too, Donna. Suzi, we must be about the same age. I was 16 then I and loved some of the punk, but Queen was my favorite of all types of music. Sheer Heart Attack is one of my favorite Queen songs. How it goes right into All Dead, All Dead was genius. You are all hyped up and you get a slammed down into the beauty of Freddie and his piano. Brilliant. News Of The World is a brilliant album all around.
@@awarenessvillage So right. The contrast between the 2 songs is stark. I don't think anyone would guess it's the same band if they listened to them independently and didn't know they were on the same album, especially since Freddie & Roger sing Sheer Heart Attack and Brian sings All Dead.
What genre of music can they NOT nail to the post! Such talent all the way through.
You said it!!! Rock, punk, opera, jazz, rockabilly, broadway, folk, ballad, soundtrack -they were/are princes of the universe!!!
NW Monk hard agree
@@hannyhawkins7804 Yes! Hopefully we can convince these folks to continue their discovery of all Queen's many facets!
Despite writing it... Roger hated doing it in concert because it was so exhausting to drum to.
celt67 punk does get to be that way... I don’t envy punk drummers 😂😂
So there is an interesting history behind this song, as you know Queen's 3rd album was titled Sheer Heart Attack. This song was written by Roger for that album, but wasn't complete, so it didn't make an appearance until News Of The World (6th album). The interesting thing about this song to me is that Roger Taylor is the one playing the rhythm guitar; Brian helped some with lead. Also, John Deacon is not in this track either, Roger is playing all the instruments! Both Freddie and Roger sing on this track.
lawrence abeyta I guess that means Andy and I were both right 🙌🏻
Freddie did sing in this song 😂 both him and Roger.
No just Roger!
@@salvatoremistretta3357 no 😂
Yes
@@salvatoremistretta3357 well that's too bad
@@miajohansen9950 blah!
Was actually written for the album of the same name in '74 but wasn't deemed very 'Queen' but after the punk revolution Roger wanted it released!
Roger played rhythm guitar.
Get some more Roger songs under your belt. Roger was the rocker of the group. Try "More of that Jazz" "Fun It" or "Rock It (Prime Jive)" for some more awesome Roger.
And the drums. THE DRUMS. One of the best drummers ever.
Roger, like the rest of the band, could do it all.
Edit: Let me add "Drowse" to the great Roger songs. Might be my favorite one from him.
Bryan Burton All of this.👍
All of these suggestions 👍🏻😁... also Tenement Funster by Roger is awesome 😎
"My new purple shoes..."
Yeah, add that one, too. Roger songs always get you going.
"Coming Soon" "Fight From the Inside"
And don't even get me started on Deacon songs.
Don’t forget Fight From the Inside another awesome Roger song 😊
Bryan Burton My favorite Roger song is Radio Gaga
yeah mixture of Fred‘s and Rog‘s vocals 🎉🙌🏻 haha how they basically just roasted Sid Vicious 😂
and great reaction boyss☺️
All instruments including the vocals are played by Roger. He played drums (of course), guitar (with a little help from Brian), bass, and vocals (although Freddie sings the first verse). This one-man band shows once again how much talent Roger had.
@:-P Gouln no, the second verse is definitely Roger, and in the chorus he also sings more than just sheer heart attack. The first verse is indeed freddie, and in the chorus it is roger with freddie singing, "I feel so"
@@jasssper Yup, its both of them switching verses singing. The chorus is actually both of them with Rogers vocals more up front. Freddie sang the "I feel so articulate" part alone. The vocals are just thrown all over the place. Which just adds to the chaotic punk sound they were imitating.
@@jasssper the second verse isn't roger
One of their best songs ever!!! But you should check it out on the Montreal live concert....Love Dragon Attack!! It's SHEER QUEEN!
When the punk movement happened, Queen got a lot of abuse for being too pompous etc, while punk was the opposite. This is their punk song for the punks: "I feel so inarticulate" 😂 When they were recording this album it turned out the Sex Pistols were recording in the same studios. They bumped into Sid Vicious once who made a sarcastic comment to Freddie, saying "So you're the bloke bringing ballet to the masses then?", and Freddie replied "Ah, Mr Ferocious! We're trying our best my dear!" 😂😂😂 Love it!
shellywoo Freddie is a savage🔥 truly a man who’s confident in himself
Another good reaction, it’s quite amusing seeing your reactions as a song unfolds, album artwork even got an episode of family guy about it
ruclips.net/video/dOZuIV2FZTc/видео.html
Really! I’ll watch it! Thanks so much
You both looked so confused that I almost felt sorry for you. However, I had faith you'd figure things out and you did. Alex, your insight is almost scary at times. Great reaction. If you want to go the opposite direction, listen to "My Melancholy Blues" from the same album. Freddie's voice, piano, jazzy drums, and bass. It might not be your cup of tea, but it's definitely a well constructed and executed song.
Missy Frye I love your comments ❤️❤️ and it’s only moderately bc of the compliments 😏
Alex From AndyReacts Well, Alex, I’m flattered that my comments are appreciated. Fair warning, I’ll just as quickly be non-complementary if you do something stupid. 😉 I don’t know exactly what that would be. You both have knowledge of music and I respect your right to express your opinions- it helps that you’re both cute as bugs ears.
Andy and Alex, If you’re looking for some nice, loud classic Queen rock next, please review Tie Your Mother Down - a long-time live concert favourite from A Day at the Races.
And, although I know you prefer to review studio tracks , anyone who appreciates great musicianship will LOVE Queen’s live rock n roll medley - early, baby queen, Hammersmith 77, or all grown up at Wembley Saturday night, 1986, they raise the roof. John Deacon’s bass alone is reason enough to watch the 77 medley. Maybe they’re not right for a review channel but great to enjoy for yourselves anyway.
According to Wikipedia:
Freddie Mercury - lead and backing vocals
Brian May - lead guitar
Roger Taylor - lead and backing vocals, drums, rhythm guitar, bass guitar (written by him as well)
One of the few original Queen recordings that does not include bassist John Deacon.
It’s nice that you trust the commenters to fill you in on the details, but I wish you would look them up right after you listen, because I’d love to see you react to finding out things like: who sings it, who played which instruments (Roger on almost all of them for this song and Fight From the Inside), etc. That’s half the fun!! Great pick, can’t wait for the next one.
Heather Qualy Yeas, good point. I second this.
I wasn’t sure 100% but was sure it was Roger. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheer_Heart_Attack_(song)
It’s was Roger on most on the instruments with a little help from Brian. Deacon isn’t us at all on the track.
Great reaction guys! Love Queen Wednesday’s keep it up and also, good luck on your studies 👍
Love this song altho I love all queen songs love your reactions when something different happens in the song knowing your not expecting it can't wait til next week now til your next reaction
Terry Wright thanks! Excited to share it with you. And yea this one caught us by (pleasant) surprise. But I guess that’s how you know it’s genuine 😂
Freddie and Roger share the vocals on this track. For Alex it sounds like punk and it's true. Interesting thing is that Queen recorded News Of The World in the same studio and at the same time that Sex Pistols recorded their famous Never Mind The Bollocks.Here's the Sex Pistols. And there was famous exchange there between Freddie and Sex Pistols's bassist Sid Vicious. Of course Freddie won
Jan Slowhand when does Freddie not win though?
I know I’ve been commenting this A LOT but you have to react to Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy. It’s such a great and underrated song!
I agree - great song!
Katherine May never be sorry, you know we love your comments 🔥
Queen sounding like The Ramones! I remember playing this on an almost endless loop when the album came out! You guys should react to the entire "Queen - Live Killers" album. To me, it's right there with Live At Leeds by The Who as the greatest live albums ever. Queen performs "Sheer Heart Attack" on that gem.
Something else from Queen you should react to: the Fast version of "We Will Rock You".
+1 to Fast WWRY, they turned the original track into raw rock 'n' roll
I know I’m in the minority but I have never liked fast WWRY. Absolutely adore Sheer Heart Attack, though.
Lead vocals were by Freddie with Roger harmonizing on the choruses.
This song was written (but not included) for the album Sheer Heart Attack. And you both are right: it's Freddie and Roger singing (mostly Freddie). Remember Freddie could change his voice and make it sound however the hell he wanted!
Roger was fascinated with punk music, hence the influence of this song. As "News of the World" was much simpler than their previous albums they felt they could include the song, and it did work with the record.
Thank you so much, great head banging! :P
That is Fred. And punk hit the UK in 76. Good video.
Adrian Stabbins 🙏🏼 thanks I knew someone would tell us! And really I guess I didn’t know it started that early in the UK
the guy on the right is rocking that long hair peace!
kloteyoshi1 the guy on the right appreciates the guy in the comment section
It is roger Taylor singing it was his nod to punk
It was both Freddie and Roger
i like this track off News of the world album Really like it was meant to be on Sheer Heart attack Album but was cut out but i still love it one of my favorites very heavy.
They played this song in Montreal same as that Somebody To Love reaction live u did this was played in the same concert but i feel studio is better
Watch it performed live in Montreal to see the funniest thing you've ever seen!
Right?!?!?!😂😂
This Punk Metal song was always part of the Encore at Queen concert!
You guys should revisit this song LIVE and get the FULL EXPERIENCE!!
Guys, 1977 is known as the year of punk, the year punk became popular. At least in England. This song is not a precursor.
Alexander Avni ooo but I’m seeing a lot of comments that this was written for the album of the same name... does that mean it predates punk 🤔 did queen invent all music... how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop ... the world may never know
Gotta listen to it live at The Bowl.
Hi A & A, great choice. I LOVE this song. Loved watching your reactions, too.
I’m sure other posters have already filled you in on this little piece of proto-punk perfection.
Released in 77, sure, but Roger wrote this in 74, for the Sheer Heart Attack album, so it was waaaaay ahead of its time.
TBH, while I love many a Queen anthem and ballad, I could have done with more of this style in the years that followed. A & A, compare this with Fight from the Inside, from the same album, News of the World. It’s Roger’s slap-down of punk’s pretensions. Others will no doubt relate the hilarious story of Freddie throwing Sid Vicious out of the NOTW studio.
Also from Queen’s stripped-down, back-to-basics News of the World, is the sublime ‘It’s Late’ - a showcase of all that Queen do best: shredding guitar, soul-stirring harmonies, love, longing, sex, betrayal - poetry.
NOTW also includes the raw sex of Get Down, Make Love; Deacy’s lovely ‘Spread your Wings’ and one of Freddie’s finest, ‘Melancholy Blues’. What incredible range Queen show, just in the songs mentioned in this post. If I had to choose just one Queen album, NOTW would be it.
The singer? Freddie with a heavy dose of Roger.
Hanny - you never cease to amaze me with your knowledge and insights!! You're so right about the range and all the incredible songs on just this one album. Would love to hear these fella react to GDML - I haven't seen anyone take that one on!!! 😉😂
Anita Smith Thanks, Anita. Mis-spent youth, I guess.😉. I don’t have encyclopedic knowledge, I just heard Queen’s songs album by album, which I still think it the best introduction to them and how I still listen to them - rather than compilations or playlists.
No, I’ve seen no reviews for GDML yet and only one for It’s Late. We’ll just have to keep campaigning - Your Dragon Attack push paid off - it’s gotten quite a few reviews now.👏👏👏, thanks to your untiring pleas. And I still owe u for reminding me how great that song is, especially live.
Hanny Hawkins such an in depth comment thank you so much for the knowledge.
@@hannyhawkins7804 Guess now that I've gotten folks engines started with Dragon Attack and we've TYMD we'll have to convince folks they're ready to GDML !!! 🤣🤣🐉👩❤️💋👩 OK it's early, I'll stop!
Anita Smith Oh wait ... Andy & Alex haven’t reviewed Tie Your Mother Down! So they can’t do Get Down Make Love yet ... 😉.
Ok, that’s just my neurosis. As you were.
very astute to notice the added interval for the tension when the lyric changes to "real cardiac."
I meant Sheer Heart Attack, lol, but also love Dragon Attack....both better live!
I always enjoyed Roger's songs, they were always just a little rougher around the edges.
another fun Queen fact - it was the Game Album when Queen 1st used a synthesizer, until then on all the albums it stated NO SYNTHS
Queen made all kind of genres of Rock and rocked it in every one!
Where are the live reactions? So many great live queen shows to watch. :)
c c we need to do a double upload sometime with a studio and live version to compare
You should check out Queen- The march of the black queen. I love it they have so many great songs, I enjoy watching your reactions to Queen music
I'm New Zealand fan of your page.
@Angela Speers
Hey friend I’ve done a video for that one already, check the queen playlist I have on the channel, it is a great song!! And I’m glad you enjoy the vids!! 😁😁
Angela Speers thanks for the love from across the ocean 🌊
Great track Sheer joy it is I love this track as it's really fast and powerful I think it was supposed to be on the sheer heart attack album.
It's a great driving song it's Roger with Freddie doing the chorus
Stay lucky stay safe Mike UK.
Mike Embleton similar to houses of the holy not being on houses of the holy 😂😂
@@alexfromandyandalex8032 yes Alex your it is similar to Houses of the holy.
Stay lucky stay safe Mike UK .
Sorry to bother you Andyreacts but there are soooo many brilliant songs you really need to hear. One Vision, The Invisible Man, I’m in love with my car, I want to break free and I want it all. Oh my goodness I could spend days writing so many songs. Hello from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
khs17 hello back ! And I know we have a long list but all that means is that we will be experiencing new queen for a long time to come 😏
Alex From AndyReacts I just love watching your faces to how you react to Freddie and the boys. QUEEN 👑 Will Rock forever. Thanks to Bohemian Rhapsody it is bringing out new fans of this bloody awesome band. Appreciate the likes and comments back, my name is Kirsten from Down Under 😊❤️❤️❤️👍🇦🇺
@khs17
Greetings from Florida!! 😁😁
Alex From AndyReacts Hello Alex, love the hair 😊❤️👋
AndyReacts Hi Guys, was it because of Bohemian Rhapsody that you discovered the best band ever ? Or have you known about Queen previously. I will be tuning in to your Queen reactions every weeks. You certainly have a massive catalogue of brilliant songs. #FreddieMercuryRIP #QUEENROCKS 👑👑👑❤️
Queen could kick ass!!! I feel so inarticulate...... ☮️
John Duval could... don’t you mean did 🔥🔥
@@alexfromandyandalex8032 actually I was quoting my favorite line from the song. This tune rocks. ☮️
You guys should try 'Good Company' from Night at the opera, truly amazing what Brian can make his guitar sound like. I love the song and the story it tells. Keep up the great reactions !
Ian W thank you!
You should check out Uriah Heep "Gypsy" live at Koko London 2014. The band formed in 1969 and still tour. "Gypsy" came out in 1970
Defo Freddie in the main parts with Roger duetting in parts. It's a Roger punk (pre punk if you will). Somebody commented it was written for Sheer Heart Attack but not finished which is correct. Are we to say Queen invented Punk music lol. How about a Vaudeville song, “Lazing on a Sunday afternoon“, or a lullaby " Dear Friends“ or Heavy metal, " Gimme the prize"? No Rap or Reggae I am afraid, you still need to open the box on Body Language to see if you are a true Queen fan
The Queen & toy collector you my friend sound like a true queen fan
Queen nut might be the correct term but there is always room for more nuts like me in the Queen camp.
Great song, better live. So much energy live.
Please do It's Late or The Hitman next please, guys!
Brian said it was their attempt at doing Punk 'properly'
They were ahead of their time ,luv them
Hey guys! I love that u did this pre- punky gem. I sometimes open our set w deep cut surprises, so funny how many folks have no idea it's even Queen! Lol ...fun 2 play man
Punk was on the rise when this was recorded. Queen had taken a lot of flak from the critics for being too polished and complex. This song was recorded for the News of the World Album but written some time before. In the same studio, the Sex Pistols were recording Never Mind the Bullocks. Both Roger and Freddie are singing. Brian May and Steve Jones talk about this song on an interview on Jonsey's Jukebox within the last couple of years.
One of my favorite Queen songs! Listen to to the whole album. The way the songs were ordered is brilliant. It's like a most excellent roller coaster ride. It's one of my favorite albums of all time, same with first two. Exquisite!
Really enjoying your posts. May I suggest either Now I'm Here live at Wembley in 1986 to rock out to or Another One Bites The Dust live at Montreal to groove out to (plus Freddie outfit in this one is certainly interesting!) and Let Me In Your Heart Again - a rock love song. Oh and can I vote for two Queen nights a week from you rather than the one :-)
I normally wouldn't suggest this song, it is a bit extreme :D I could never identify who is singing, except in the chorus where Roger's voice is clear. This is their punkiest stuff ever, but News of the World isn't a punk album, it's just their most stripped down one. Special mention to the cover art -- best ever IMO! Roger's idea taken from the cover of a sci-fi magazine. They hired the original artist. On the magazine, the robot has killed a man, but here it has killed the band.
Polux Saurus Not only the best Queen cover art, but among the best album cover art ever.
I loved the inside cover so much, I hung it on my wall like a poster when I was a kid.
Fun track :-) My understanding was that it was a swipe at a couple of bands. The Sex Pistols and The Sweet. The Pistols, for a bust up that occurred in a recording studio, and The Sweet for referring to Queen as a bunch of poseurs in interviews. Track always reminded me of a powered up version of The Sweet's track 'Action' (covered by Def Leppard). FYI... The first punk single released in the UK was in 1976 (New Rose by The Damned not Anarchy in the UK by the Pistols as is widely believed, by about a month), so this was just after the punk scene exploded.
Sheik Yebouti thank you so much! This was very unsightful, a great read 👍🏻
Hey thanks for the like you really need to react to white queen live at Hammersmith 1975 it will blow you away 😁
This is great live, HAS to be Montreal 81. Freddie is definitely ON FIRE. Anne (this is Freddie singing)
Roger Taylor sang it on the Album. Freddie sang it live. He originally wrote the song in 1974
Queen is always full of surprises
It's Freddie with Roger on some of the chorus. Punk was massively popular in the UK in 1977. But remember Roger wrote it for the album of the same name it just wasn't finished in time.
I’m so glad you did this one.
One of my absolute favs of all time.
Find a live version.
Punk rock masterpiece...by Queen.
Try more from Roger - Im in love with my car or tenement funster! :-)
Speaking of Queen's genre-jumping, an obscure b side (forget what the main song is) is actually a country and western tune. "A Human Body". Also, Another One Bites the Dust was originally going to be a Country song written by John Deacon, but the bass riff he came up with took it in a different direction. ;)
You gotta do "It's Late" written by Brian, but he gave John a killer bass line. Also, "Spread Your Wings"....John's best song lyrically in my opinion...plus the video is kinda funny....they're all freezing in Roger's backyard.
Yes i agree. Please play It's Late off this same album
Another emphatic vote for Its Late, one of Queen’s masterpieces.
ErinLees I’m not saying yes... but I also have an inability to say no to a good bass line 😏
@@alexfromandyandalex8032 Take your time. Get to it...when you get to it. 🤓 It's Late is one that I didn't appreciate when I was into them in high school. Now when I hear it....the bass just sounds so lush..especially at the end, ...obviously John is my fav, so 9 times out of 10, I'll suggest one of his songs...or one where his playing is showcased.
ErinLees You’re totally right about taking time to get to Its Late. And Johns bass lines on everything from Fat Bottomed Girls to Its Late are Queen’s secret weapon.
Thai song is indeed a relentless freight engine if sound that just pummels you and doesn't let up until the last second. Great react.
Roger Taylor on vocals here. He liked the burgeoning punk music scene.
I love the story where Freddie grabbed Sid Vicious by his leather jacket and threw him out of the recording studio. Haha!
Danelle Covey sid May be vicious but Freddie is a savage 🔥🔥🔥
Freddie on main vocals, not Roger.
Freddie never threw Sid Vicious out of the studio. They bumped into one another and Freddie called him “Mr. Ferocious.”
@@seanculver8876 But Freddie did push him. It's all in the documentary
This is Freddie on vocals..? Atleast that’s what it sounds like...
Cool song indeed, but please watch or listen to Fat Bottomed Girls
khs17 it is on the list🙌🏻
Alex From AndyReacts Bloody awesome Mate 😊❤️❤️❤️👍👑👑👑👑👑🇦🇺
Alex From AndyReacts whereabouts do you guys come from ?
React to Queen - I Want It All
react to The Fairy Fellers Master Stroke off of Queen II
It was some TV show that had the character become horrified at that album cover. I tend to agree. The organic features combined with the the metallic body is unsettling.
zhkopec definitely can see how that is unsettling. I’d love to know how many iterations the album cover went through
Was Stewie from Family Guy.
Always, always watch Queen live if you can find it. Like "Action this day" is really good on cd, but great live!
it IS Freddie singing!! The man can do anything!!
Freddie sang lead vocals. Roger played all the instruments on this song (aside from a few lead guitar licks from Brian). That chugging, rhythm guitar is Roger.
It's FREDDIE singing the lead vocal....HOWEVER, the harmonies are of course Freddie, Brian and Roger. And...the one part of the vocals that is ROGER singing are the lines, " I FEEL so, INAR, INAR, INAR, INAR, INAR, INAR, INAR, INARRRRRR-TICulate!" And ROGER says the words, "HEART ATTACK" and "CARDIAC" at the ends of the long trios of lines that start with " SHEEEEEEEEEEER..." (repeated twice) and " REAAAAAAAAAAL...etc." and those bits are ROGER alone.
Freddie had a falling out of sorts with Sid Vicious and I believe this may be a stab at him. I think its very creative and definitely worthy.
It's Freddie. It was a response to the punk movement that considered Queen a soft band. So they said, ok we can make Punk and we can make it better. Check the live version at Montreal of this song.
It wasn't finished in time to put on the sheer heart attack album so they finished it and put it on the News of the World album
But if it had been included in that album, it wouldn't have been like this, it would have been more standard heavy rock. It's only like this because of the punk explosion of 1976-78
celt67 I dunno about that. I’ve always thought you can hear the beginnings of punk in Roger’s Modern Times RocknRoll, from Queen’s very first album, Queen. JMHO tho. Happy to be corrected.
Queen and Pink Floyd, two of the best bands ever
You can hear the Glam rock influence there sounds like The Sweet! a British Glam Rock Band from the early 70's
White Queen (As it Began)
Live at the Rainbow ‘74
it was Freddie and roger both singing and roger on drums and guitars
If you listen to the entire Sheer Heart Attack Album, the transitions from Tenement Funster through Lily of the Valley are seamless. But you HAVE to listen to them without interruptions between songs because then it's not nearly as magical. I love watching you guys react to older queen records, so I think you should try giving this a go!!
Watch the live version "Sheer Heart Attack (live in Houston, tx 1977)
It blows me away how influenced Queen was by Sweet. Another great band!
There was story Sex pistols and Queen recorded at the same studio and John Rotten crawled around piano said hi to Freddie and crawled back hahahaha He absolutely adored Freddie
News of the world came out in 1977 as the Punk movement was on the rise, it saw Queen move away from the layered harmonies and into more “raw” music.
SHA and It’s Late are great rock songs on the album but also My Melancholy blues is a wonderful slow number.
Queen very eclectic, more so on albums:
Hard Rock: the Hitman
1950’s folk: good company (worth checking out as all of the brass band is actually Brian’s guitar).
Disco: another one bites the dust
Pure silliness: seaside rendezvous
Tenement Funster, Queen, Sheer Heart Attack Album
It was Freddie singing.
Brain played the bass on this track as well
From the same album “Get Down Make Love “ has a bit of a Pink Floyd feel to it.
Roger also played almost every instrument on the track!
Yes you absolutely have to see this live, often Freddie would destroy the stage during this song!
