@Nalla Kinz Ok, for some of us (I include myself) Queen is the greatest one, but that's a personal opinion... a Beatles or a Bon Jovi's fan will tell you those bands were the best...is very subjective. In what we can agree is, for you and me QUEEN was the best band ever heard, is one of those bands which were unforgettable and incomparable but there everyone has their own opinion about which one was the best.......music is subjective.

This is amazing. At 3:35 Brian wanders off the stage, fixing some issue with his guitar. Freddie notices at 3:40, and goes into an extended improvised vamp. From around 3:53, Brian is making what sound like tentative strums to check something? Then from around 4:10 he's vamping, and Freddie takes it as a cue to continue properly. Well, I think. It's all incredible.

[@nJeloBeats]

I just can't wrap my head around how well this band performed, no bullshit, no live autotune, just true musicians really creating a piece of art together all at once while on the spotlight, on top of a stage performing for thousands of people in front of them! Just the way they can really focus their minds together in such musical syntony to create something so beautiful, so special and so rare that even artists 40 years later could never dream of performing, even with all the advancements in technology that should allow them to.

[@sitgesvillaapartmentneilsc7924]

that is because these band members were highly intelligent and incredibly good musicians when they were in their late teens unlike most of the crap that is produced today by the likes of Covell and others . Nothing IMHO will ever be better than Queen Live or Studio there is no better music ever made. The only persons who ever came close to Freddie Mercury was George Michael and Paul Rodgers of Free fame.

[@SealedKiller]

I feel like it's because all of the greats dabbled in all styles of music rock, blues, classical, gospel, ... Most people stick to one genre and can't really stand out if you get what I'm saying. Plus these people had ideas in their head, at least one band member needs to have some kind of vision, if nobody does then you'll just end up being a pub band/cover band.

[@buckeyegirl16]

100% and I'm someone who used to hate listening to live performances...but there are just certain bands/artists that have this energy that comes out during live performances and have ways, like ad libs, of making the song sound so different from the studio recording, in a good way, where it's almost a different song or at least gives u a different perspective on that song. This vibe is so different than the studio version...feels more emotional and relatable. Another song I heard recently (not new, just new to me) that gave me a whole new perspective on a song was Bon Jovi's acoustic version of Living on a Prayer...completely changes the song...Disturbed doing SoS was the first time I actually paid attention to the lyrics...I'd heard the original 100x cuz that's the music my parents listened to, but the lyrics never stood out to me til David sang it. I cried the first 10x (prob more) I listened to it. I just love when someone can revinvent a great song the right way and Queen does that so well in this performance 👏
