I can't imagine anyone taking on a queen song and making it different, while at the same time, maintaining the essence of the original....??? 100% nailed it...!!!!
Not to take away from the excellent cover by these two talented ladies, but if you want _more_ of "taking on a Queen song and making it different, while at the same time, maintaining the essence of the original..." I suggest you search for pianist Peter Bence's videos, as well as Peter Hollens's acapella covers, especially his Queen _medley_ (I know that doesn't sound like it would work, but trust me, it's amazing!). AFAIK it's just a coincidence that they're both named Peter.
It's not just your performances that always impress: transcribing a unique song like this for only 2 guitars and 2 voices and making it as enjoyable as the original takes quite some talent. Awesome job!
Two years old, but first time watcher. Sometimes the YT algorithm throws a gem at me out of nowhere. You ladies rock. Truly amazing. Both the singing and the guitar skills. Well done. Enjoyed this thoroughly. New sub right here.
New subscriber, also. Scrolling the lyrics made me appreciate the song even more than from way back in the day. And very clear and clean guitar playing == bravo.
The last time I heard this song live was on the Queen Live Killers Tour on Dec. 1st, 1980 in Bremen, Germany. I've been a huge Queen Fan at that time. And now, over 40 years later, you wonderful Ladies nailed it with your grandious version. I'm loving it. Thank you very much and best wishes from Germany...
@@JS-lr8nj yeah, Rick beato keeps saying they are notorious blockers......... but not very dilligent ones as there zillions of people covering their stuff on RUclips.
Genre, gender, and style - all masterfully transformed in this arrangement. Every Sunday morning, I hold my breath, click, and then - goosebumps from raw, and yet understated talent. So accessible, so professional, so worthy. There really aren't any right words for the praise that Reina and Toni deserve.
@@DukeStarbuckle appreciating that two women can deliver the cover performance vs. The group of men that sang the original. It was seamless and not at all a factor.
Reina has a terrific voice and Toni is a very talented guitarist. Their duets are some of my favorite music videos. I have also noticed that the visuals of their productions are usually quite striking. Bravo!!
Covering a song as difficult as this must be such a challenge. These ladies had so many easier options to choose from, and they nailed it. I remember on Queen's earlier album sleeves in the 70's they always stated they didn't use synthesizers - ''No synths''! They seemed very proud of that. (They later did use them.) I could see where they were coming from at the time. You two just rocked one of their most difficult songs (in my opinion) with TWO guitars. I think Queen would be proud of that. Brian May is active on RUclips I believe, I would love for him to see this. Congratulations, and thank you to you and all of The Other Favourites and talented friends for keeping me smiling in lock-down while looking after my dad. You probably aren't aware how much of a difference you make.
Great job, both of you! Once again Toni looks up from whatever guitar work she's doing and blends in seemingly effortlessly with her harmony vocal, spot on!
Okay guys I admit when I saw this title I thought no WAY. Absolutely NO WAY. But you NAILED IT! True to the complexity of the song yet your own unique spin. Freddie would LOVE this, dahlings. 👍🏼🤴🏻
@@Hottiedonkey Agreed. Sometime I just speak/type my thoughts not meaning to criticize or judge. Truth is she is an outstanding guitarist and musician ; )
The depth of material that you two attempt (and master) will never cease to amaze me. Great, great guitar work Toni, you are a master of your craft! (and at such a young age too)
Very impressive! To strip down such a complicated song without sacrificing it's personality is an achievement! And, Reina, your guitar playing has really stepped up lately. I know it's hard to shine next to Toni, but I think you are strumming n picking like a champ!
I could watch every single day every single song they play! Never seen a duo so genuine delivering the greatest songs. Congratulations are In order, fine ladys really know how to end the week and start a Sunday! Love them! Thank you for existing!
Good Lord. That Toni is a huge asset to your music. She's a boss on that guitar and it adds sooooo much to your accompaniment, not to mention the fact that she can sing too!! That gal is quite impressive!!
You guys are just great. Everything just fits together perfectly like a musical jigsaw. This just shows how you can turn your talent to any genre of music with super results. This comes from being so naturally talented. Well done
If an acoustic rendition of this classic track than it has to be exactly like the one you both did. Wonderful. I guess Freddie would like it, too.Thank you! 👍😎
Killer Queen -you two guitar queens killed it! My new favorite version. Spot on lead, harmony and arrangement. You made it look easy. It's not. Thank you for a real treat. 🙏
Besides QUEEN I never thought anybody can play their music, but I was wrong, this is the first time that I can say “yes, you guys did it” … beautiful and unbelievable !!! … two guitars and two singers, I’m impressed and I am amazed. Thank you
Respect! A Queen-Song is complex, you did a great job. Hope you can visit germany once more when this crazy times are over. I saw you in Hamburg and Colone.
Just love love watching you to sing all these amazing songs. Love this version of Queen. My you keep on singing forever. I to watch these Sunday morning sessions. Thanks x
I was at The Hammersmith Odeon in London in November 1975, to see Queen, which just happened to be the first day Bohemian Rhapsody went to NO.1 for the very first time. What a thrill and been a fan ever since. I have to say, having just tried to play it, this is an outstanding cover girls, so very well done. xx
in my opinion you girls, josh and everybody doing this beautiful artwork are the wall i was looking for to block auto-tone and the mainstream music labels from destroying the very nature of art
This was one of their best performances! Singing and the instrumentation. The guitars are so tight, Reina’s playing complements Toni’s amazing lead and melody. That Strat (?) sounds heavenly. Lead vocals, and vocal harmonies are beautiful and the recording is so crisp! Just wow!
I turn on music while cooked, and I just opened my egg cracken🙂 experience with queen...the first album I ever bought...true..I brought it onto the yellow school bus to show all m'friends..proving how cool is cool....on a side note...cheech and chong up in smoke ..was also on my shelf before I new what 'weed' was....and I had a poster beside my bed, "cleanliness is next to Godliness" , beside that poster one of a scotsman in a kilt that shouted..."UP YOUR KILT!!"....YES, A CREATIVE BUNDLE....OF REMARKS...also explored my parents vinyl..g, Campbell, roger Whittaker, s and g, c Steven's, ann Murray's, helen teddy, kristofferson, nelson....ya music over the yrs. THANKYOU, Enjoy you day ...
I just love your reactions after that little "mistake" in the second solo part. Very relatable ... good thing you pulled through! Great version you two!
I’ve been listening to this song for like 10 days and I’m really enjoying it ! Thanks a lot for this amazing cover, which made me like more and more the original. Greetings from France !

KILLER ARRANGEMENT!!
Josh always faster than anyone else (._.
Agreed Josh! Keep up the great work you do.
Well, if YOU say so. ;-)
Yes!!
"Listen Morty, I hate to break it to you, but josh is the man”
🥸🍰✨
This is the cleanest solo of Queen I’ve ever heard in my life! What a quality!!!
Got that right!
Literally. Never heard a version of the solo with no distortion. But also very well played.
Agreed !
'What a quality'
I can't imagine anyone taking on a queen song and making it different, while at the same time, maintaining the essence of the original....???
100% nailed it...!!!!

Fantastic!
I'm 76 and a Queen fan.
This is why guitar is the greatest instrument. Beautifully done.
Holy cow. The tone on that Telecaster is straight up amazing. So full. So crystal clear. That's amazing.
...and it's ALL in the "fingers".
exactly!
This is the first time I have ever actually heard clearly and understood the lyrics to this 40+ year old song! Thank you.
Not only is it superb from Reina and Toni, but how extraordinarily clever Queen were, with lyrics and music.
Me too
40+??? My word, am I really that old? (checks watch) Oh.
The two ladies somehow did listen better to the original text than I did... 😊
@@spud13x13 did you really check your watch to know how old you are
It's not just your performances that always impress: transcribing a unique song like this for only 2 guitars and 2 voices and making it as enjoyable as the original takes quite some talent. Awesome job!
I also agree 100% with this.
Idem
Eric, I couldn't figure out how to express my reaction to this video but you did it for me.
I totally agree I don’t know how did it - it was wonderful
@@sebxiou-lifestyle4465 Also?
I'm a queen fan and I tell you one thing for sure that this is one of the best covers I've ever heard
👍
It's nice but as a queen fan, well...

It did it to me tonight with this video. My goodness Very impressive !
So glad for those jems...
Killer Queen was on the radio when I was 17 yr old. I remember driving down the road rockin' out. Good job girls. Thanks.
Two Queens for a Queen's classic
^^^ This. Precisement, mon ami.

Do you have something to do with the Fritz Brause Band from Bochum?
Everyone keeps saying how proud Freddy would be. Let me tell you if Brian May sees this he will be blown away with the arrangement.
Queen is a blocker. They'll probably prevent the video from being shown in the US once they find it.
Even Roger Taylor would have to appreciate this!
@@JS-lr8nj yeah, Rick beato keeps saying they are notorious blockers......... but not very dilligent ones as there zillions of people covering their stuff on RUclips.
i won't let you tell me, because i don't think you know one way or the other.
@@JS-lr8nj 'record company' not queen
The person with the telecaster is absolutely fantastic. 100% precision.
I just discovered them. She is a great guitarist
I’ve been playing guitar in bands for 40 years and these ladies are amazing and their ability blows me away.
I'm disappointed that it has taken YT 2 years to recommend this video to me.
Toni is one of the most talented guitarists out there!
Here harmonies are also off the hook!
I want you to relax
Nope
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!
That’s insanely well done. Congrats to two so talented women!
Genre, gender, and style - all masterfully transformed in this arrangement. Every Sunday morning, I hold my breath, click, and then - goosebumps from raw, and yet understated talent. So accessible, so professional, so worthy. There really aren't any right words for the praise that Reina and Toni deserve.
How about this: if J.J. Cale were still alive, he would jam with these two.
@@DukeStarbuckle appreciating that two women can deliver the cover performance vs. The group of men that sang the original. It was seamless and not at all a factor.
Well put. So true.
The harmony created by their guitar playing is fantastic
Reina has a terrific voice and Toni is a very talented guitarist. Their duets are some of my favorite music videos. I have also noticed that the visuals of their productions are usually quite striking. Bravo!!
The best money I ever spent was my patreon membership for these 2 amazing performers. Sunday Morning videos are the highlight of my week. Such a gift.
How can you not love Reina del Cid! They are so talented!!

A s far as I can remember on "the Game", 1980, they stated, on the cover, that they were using Synth for the first time :)
I’ve never heard a better arranged cover of a Queen song.
Great job, both of you! Once again Toni looks up from whatever guitar work she's doing and blends in seemingly effortlessly with her harmony vocal, spot on!
That red tele is by far the most beautiful guitar I have seen in a long time.
Okay guys I admit when I saw this title I thought no WAY. Absolutely NO WAY. But you NAILED IT! True to the complexity of the song yet your own unique spin. Freddie would LOVE this, dahlings. 👍🏼🤴🏻
LOL. Yes :)
Toni's sigh after the solo is endearing.
She is talented guitarist in my opinion.
Telecaster too clacky for me, also seem to fret out at the end of solo? But sounded great (different) on chords. . .
It's a challenge.
@@ouijim James it's not allowed to say anything but breathless praise.
@@Hottiedonkey Agreed. Sometime I just speak/type my thoughts not meaning to criticize or judge. Truth is she is an outstanding guitarist and musician ; )
Why are you guys the reigning queens of rock and roll? You ladies are on point everytime. Love your music.
So much talent, intelligence, grace, charm, and exquisite musicality that dances your spirit.
That's a hard song to cover with just two guitars and two voices! Really well done!
The depth of material that you two attempt (and master) will never cease to amaze me. Great, great guitar work Toni, you are a master of your craft! (and at such a young age too)
Amazing rendition Reina and Toni! Freddie Mercury would be very proud!
The best killer Queen Solo ive ever heard
Mindblown by the skill and musicality.
Very impressive! To strip down such a complicated song without sacrificing it's personality is an achievement!
And, Reina, your guitar playing has really stepped up lately. I know it's hard to shine next to Toni, but I think you are strumming n picking like a champ!
Agreed. It's been great to see Reina's growth on the guitar over the last few years.
Okay, this is my new favorite thing.
Same
Yeah it's amazing🎶🎸🎶✨✌️
What a great performance. Great Guitar Players. Wonderful Voices. A longtime Queen- and Brian May - Fan says: Thank You!
I like this cover. It's understated and low-key.
I could watch every single day every single song they play! Never seen a duo so genuine delivering the greatest songs. Congratulations are In order, fine ladys really know how to end the week and start a Sunday! Love them! Thank you for existing!
Good Lord. That Toni is a huge asset to your music. She's a boss on that guitar and it adds sooooo much to your accompaniment, not to mention the fact that she can sing too!! That gal is quite impressive!!
Hard song to nail down -- you did the song proud and I enjoyed it a lot -- love your music
Ive been a fan of Queen for over 40 years ,and Killer Queen just happens to be my favorite song.
Well Done.👍
no one cares
You guys are just great. Everything just fits together perfectly like a musical jigsaw. This just shows how you can turn your talent to any genre of music with super results. This comes from being so naturally talented. Well done
Elle anad Toni - my favorites, end of discussion. But Freddies lyrics - blows you away.
That you can take a very complex song and make it look effortless is a huge part of what makes this such an amazing thing to witness. Brava!!
Lot of moving parts to this song, really well done arrangement.
My new favorite duo easily and will be for a long time.
Damn SPOTIFY Top 40.
Real talents are on RUclips! Sophistication, quality, real musicality.
It's always a pleasure to listen to real musicians play and sing. Great songs and no rap or hipHop
Absolutely beautiful ! Best cover of that classic with such an awesome arrangement I've ever heard ! Well done girls 👍👊💪
You two pretty girls. As an old Queen fan, I really have tears in my eyes now. Well done, all of you. Great cover! Greetings from Germany. LG Hubert
The guitar player is on another level
If an acoustic rendition of this classic track than it has to be exactly like the one you both did. Wonderful. I guess Freddie would like it, too.Thank you! 👍😎
betting Freddie was smiling
Killer Queen -you two guitar queens killed it! My new favorite version. Spot on lead, harmony and arrangement. You made it look easy. It's not. Thank you for a real treat. 🙏
Besides QUEEN I never thought anybody can play their music, but I was wrong, this is the first time that I can say “yes, you guys did it” … beautiful and unbelievable !!! … two guitars and two singers, I’m impressed and I am amazed. Thank you
Reina del Cid and Toni Lindgren you again have made my Sunday. ❤
Awesome song choice and even better performance!!!! Thanks for this wonderful rendition!!!!!
Wow! What a difficult song to sing and play. Excellent!
Great cover. Simple, well done, clear, and truly brings out the clever lyrics. You made this song your own.
Man oh man, y'all continue to blow me away. Freddie Mercury wrote some amazing, fast lyrics. Thank you both for being.
Toni's singing has improved so much over the years!
This is an incredibly difficult song to pull off with just 2 guitars and 2 vocals, well done ladies!
Respect! A Queen-Song is complex, you did a great job. Hope you can visit germany once more when this crazy times are over. I saw you in Hamburg and Colone.
Two musical queens making killer music! Love this! Great tele picking, Toni! Great playing and singing from both!!! ❤
I’ve been listening to this song for 30 years and it’s the first time I’ve known the lyrics! Great cover.
Toni at 1:59 is awesome. You two complement each other brilliantly. Very well done.
My Sunday is so much better now!
Nice job Ladies! I was extremely fortunate as a young teen to see them in concert during their News of the World tour in 1977. Will never forget it!
I saw bicycle race tour Toronto 1978
You two killed it. Thank you for laying down some Queen. Always looking forward to Sunday mornings.
Love this…..it proves that a great song doesn’t need a big production……2 vocals and 2 guitars plus talent….job done!
There are easy songs to do and there are difficult ones. You chose a tough one and nailed it. Great cover.
You really messed up this time. Now you are going to have to play this song at every request show. Brilliant and .... NAILED IT!
Now that was fun. Great job ladies!
Through these young hopefuls, Queen songs will live forever and the legacy will continue ! 🥰
"Guaranteed to blow your mind" - it did! Well done, ladies! Thank you!
This is incredible!! Arranged beautifully and executed with precision!❤️
Killer arrangement from these queens.
Playing this on a crispy clean Telecaster instead of the mighty Brian sound works marvelously well. Cool cover!
Just love love watching you to sing all these amazing songs. Love this version of Queen. My you keep on singing forever. I to watch these Sunday morning sessions. Thanks x

A performance de vocês é impressionante!
Amazing, I close my eyes and I see Freddie and Brian!
Both the arrangement and the execution are impeccable! Great playing, great singing, great harmonies, great chemistry. Excellent!
The best cover I've heard of this song, period. No one else's is as much in keeping with the spirit of the original. Bravi!!
This was one of their best performances! Singing and the instrumentation. The guitars are so tight, Reina’s playing complements Toni’s amazing lead and melody. That Strat (?) sounds heavenly. Lead vocals, and vocal harmonies are beautiful and the recording is so crisp! Just wow!
A great performance I agree. Toni is playing her Fiesta Red Fender Telecaster.
Tele!!!!!
Not a Queen fan but your arrangement of this song is killer. Toni for guitarist of the century.
It's fun to listen, well done Ladies!
Wow. Incredible. What an elegant arrangement. It's like a whole new song and yet perfectly recognizable.
The two of you great musical artists have gotten me to love a song i never paid attention to before. That's magic!
One of my favorite Queen songs done by my favorite young duo, who could ask for anything more on a Sunday?
Just when I thought you two weren’t able to be any more amazing.........

Hell yeah. Great harmonies!
Now I have to listen to Queen all day
Now I have to search for Killer Queen by Queen.
As a woman myself it’s so kick ass seeing talented women who are so inspiring. Great job!
The most beautiful thing I saw in youtube in the last... 5 years!
