Hi Mr Brian May. Thats amazing to see you here👍👍 I have seen you live the last time on your Solo-Tour "Back To The Light" in 1993 in Frankfurt/Jahrhunderthalle Unfortunately i never saw Queen live with Freddie. Absolutely cool to see you here on this channel. What about Mr. John Deacon?😁 I m sure he has a very fast internet too. Guys, activate him please👍 Make that band almost complete😎 Greetings to Roger and of course to John. I m sure youre still in contact with John😉. Tell him please, that it is also possible to play Bass guitar on this channel and he should remove the dust😁. Its never too late!!! Stay healthy guys. You were there in my youth and youre still there. Keep On Rocking!!! And you all please stay fit and healthy!!!! Greetings from another Queen-fan from Germany😉🤪

[@eebdea]

I bet he hears Freddies voice singing along perfectly in his head. What a great feeling that must be, to know you are a part of history that will never be forgotten.

[@andyracksthecams]

When I heard this during Live Aid it was of those defining moments in my youth when I took guitar more seriously. I didn't put the thing down after that. This period where I seem to have lots of time on my hands has somehow rekindled that desire to play. I'm revisiting all the stuff I listened to 35 years ago and it is and was the best.

[@samuelp7116]

You were at Live Aid? Lucky person.

@@samuelp7116 No, I wish. I watched it in the front room on a Philips G11.

[@jamesward2141]

I love how he keeps the rhythm going on the A string throughout. Makes a huge difference to how good it sounds.

[@jbbeaudry]

Sometimes unbelievable things happen where you would never expect them to. I had never even dreamed of being taught by the Master Himself. And yet it's happening, thanks to confinement. Thanks so much Brian; I will never forget this. And Hammer to Fall is one of my favorite Queen riffs. I have learned more about it in 3 minutes than I had in years of practice. That little upstroke on the final A chord of the phrase. I used to play downstrokes. No wonder I sounded that boring. Now I just grabbed my guitar, played it the correct way. Bam, there it is, that bite I was desperately looking for!

[@myguitar982]

I really feel like the magic will come back though, I think alote more people are picking up instruments these days to have something thats real and not on a computer, I do feel that rock will come back strong soon, I think people of the world need it, we need a guitarist to smash a guitar on stage again to break the ice. Of course these days he or she would probably be put in jail for safety reasons lol. But thats exactly why someone has to do it to bring back the essence of rock ( yes the music first always ) but its to say we dont give a fxxk and neither should u now lets rock this place tonight and put away the phone and go crazy lol

I remember 1974 when the seller of the record shop said to me: there is a new band I think you would like. and in 1977 with my friend we used to listen all the Queen records every Saturday and Sunday!! And those were times when the lyrics weren't published, so we spent time listening to the same song over and over again trying to understand it completele since English is not our language.

[@clapton79]

Brian, I must say, I feel moved from all these videos you have been posting recently. I grew up listening to Queen solely. This may sound dumb but in my adolescent years the belief the Queen is the best music was everything to me. I had the time to study your solos closely. I did all this with my heart as I did not have the musical knowledge. My dream was to become a drummer like Roger and learnt all his fills on my pillows with knitting needles but I started to play the guitar because of you and the song Love of my life. To me you sound so special. Just passed 40 and realised that your solos are the happy place in my soul and I can ease the pain of life just thinking of Brighton rock solo or others. I saw you twice when you came to Budapest, in 92 and when you were touring with Paul Rodgers. You are a true inspiration to me. You are a rock star the world is in such a great need of. Skilled yet humble. I often think about your parents. You play the guitar as if it was not one but an entire orchestra. My sons like your songs too and I feel a little proud about it. I hope this message gets to you. Thank you for all the tunes and brain engaging harmonies. I hope all is well with you and please take care in these tough times. Geeetings from Budapest!

[@SealedKiller]

I used to hit pillows while my dad played guitar. I always wanted to be like Roger.
