Oh... and by the way.. he BUILT that guitar from scratch (because he couldnt afford a Stratocaster) back in the 1960's with his dad. It's made of an old wooden fireplace, his mothers old knitting needles and lots of other stuff he found lying around....and because he made it from the ground up.. a stratocaster has 9 distinct settings....his home-made baby has 28.

Speaking of Queen, Extreme's medley from Freddie's tribute is fantastic... I love the friendship that Brian has had with them since then. His accolades of Nuno's solo in "Get The Funk Out" is absolutely endearing.

Queen is possibly the best band of the late 20th century. You could argue for the Beatles, but they're more mid-century. I miss Freddie so much. It was mind-blowing as a kid, tween, and teen to see him perform on TV. And heart-wrenching when his decline became visible. I've never, before or since, seen a man who was so incredibly flamboyant, and yet so utterly masculine. Bowie was on fire with that beautiful androgynous thing he had going on. Most men were rocking some form of the beanpole/footballer body in jeans and a fringed vest. Freddie had his own style and damn if it didn't work.

“That’s a dope looking guitar!” That, Alex, is Brian May’s “Red Special”. He made that with his father when he was young. He couldn’t afford a guitar of his own, so he built one. Brian only used that guitar, unless they were playing Fat Bottomed Girls, or a string broke, then he’d get a copy. Once Fat Bottomed Girls was over, or a new string was fitted, he’d go right back to using the Red Special. Brian still uses that guitar today on tour. Btw, he made it in I believe the 60s. All original pieces except for strings and machine heads and tuners. Everything else is the same from when he made it all those years ago, and it still works.

When you said that was a dope looking guitar, Brian May actually built that guitar with his father when he was a teenager, using everything from a piece of fireplace mantel, to mother of pearl button, piece of oak table, motorbike valve springs, etc. Replicas are still made and sold today.

Wow... Queen was literally my first rock band. I was like thirteen, and I found a CD in my parents collection. After that I started to listening to classic rock like Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and other stuff. That was the start of my whole metalhead carrier. This song brings back so much memories. (And sorry if my english sucks. I didn't practice it for a while and sometimes I can't even talk properly in my main language. 😅)

We were there wearing our bell bottoms hip huggers with tub tops and platforms or our mini shirts with go go boots. This lovely gentle soul was Freddie Mercury. R.I.P. 😭

QUEEN is unprecedented talent, genius, uniqueness, & Freddie is the best front man ever!!! It is said that Freddie Mercury had one of the most recognizable voices in pop and rock history. His speaking voice fell in the baritone range, but he delivered most songs in the tenor range. His known vocal range extended from bass low F (F2) to soprano high F (F6) & a 4 octave range !!! One of my favorite bands & songs of all time, & thank you for sharing & your commentary, & above all, keeping this amazing band & songs alive ❤️ 💛 💙 💜

He and his dad made the guitar. Part of was a old fireplace, sewing needles and a bunch of other pieces they found around the house. There will never be one like it and Brian May is excellent. The thing that you have to love more then anything about Queen is they never let their ego’s get in the way and they are the only band where each member of the band has written a song that has gone to #1 on the charts. That is so cool!

Live at Montreal is the best version of this song. Queen is an amazing live band so live shows are often the better choice. Brian built that guitar when he was a teen with his dad. This song is a prayer (gospel song) if you listen to it that way is makes a lot of sense. These guys met while going to college and each got a degree before becoming full time musicians. Roger (drummer) degree in biology, left dental school to do music full time, John (bass) degree in electronics (built the Deacy amp that Brian uses to get other instrument sounds out of his guitar) John uses it on occasion also, Freddie (lead singer) degree in design (designed the queen logo) and Brian (guitar) a PhD in astrophysics, so they all had something to fall back on if this didn't work out but none of them ever really thought of that as an option. Excellent reaction. Your facial expressions said it all. You were properly impressed. Thank you.

Yay! I'm finally on time here! #Alex, two of Queen's other songs that I highly recommend are "Killer Queen" & "I Want It All". Trust this ELDERLY lady on this one, you will love either or both of those iconic songs. As for this one & your take on its meaning, being a gay male celebrity in the 60's & 70's WAS a lonely place for Freddy to be. Oh yeah, I've heard a bit about you reacting to Epica "Consign to Oblivion" {live version at the Zenith} somewhere here in the KZbin world...can't quite place it... anyway, I did again, yesterday & while it is over 20 minutes long, worth it!
