[@aerob1033]

Just the piano arrangement on its own here could stand on its own as a phenomenal song. Absolutely incredible, transformative work--I always liked the original song, but something about the arrangement and the way the synths are used placed it firmly in the mid-80s. Putting all of those instruments into one piano track and adding your own embellishments and changes--this version instead feels timeless. Then you get Marc's incredible take on Freddie's original vocals on top of that? *Simultaneously*? Unbelievable.

I'm 45 and my dad died about 10 yrs ago, he had me late in his life so I didn't get him for a long time. Anytime I watch or listen to something he liked I always see us with a beer in hand on the deck talking about days passed. I'm sure your dad is watching with you as well. ❤

When Freddie recorded this song, his voice already changed into a macho tone. The quality of Marc Martel’s voice is 1970’s Freddie.

True, but after 23 songs in a concert, doing this as a second encore often ends up sounding more like 80's Freddie with more rasp.

At first, I was interested in his imitation. But now, I'm fall into his personal singing ability.

He isn't imitating.

[@CaneyCreekQuidditch]

No he's imitating. If you listen to his original songs he still sounds a bit like Freddie, but not anywhere near the scale of when he's singing a Queen song, I mean, his job was literally singing as a Queen tribute band for a few years. He's pretty famous for imitating Freddie and you can even watch as he purposefully juts his jaw or pushes his teeth forward in his mouth to give himself that extra vibrato like Freddie had.

[@taffyholvenstot8297]

I actually think his singing is coming into its own. here he sounds like he's actually just singing it in his own style, which is very similar to Freddie, but he's not trying to slavishly imitate him. I think it's confidence is such that he's coming into his own, and singing a beautiful song in his own style.

[@taffyholvenstot8297]

Black Dog, because I believe what Marc Martel says which is that he had his own Christian band and people started to tell him he sounded like Freddie Mercury, whom he had never heard of. Then he got on the queen train and clearly he can make himself sound almost exactly like Freddie on certain songs (such as his one take BoRap.). but I have heard him sound much more like Freddie, so in my mind he is letting himself be a bit more free here and using his voice more in his own individual style. I'm not saying he's perfect at the higher notes. That is neither here nor there.

[@taffyholvenstot8297]

Black Dog, umm, I may have listened to borap 500 times. Of course he doesn't sound exactly like Freddie, but in my opinion, damn close.

The lead singer was good, but boy, would I like to be in a choir backing Marc Martell. What an honor that would be. That said, Marc makes this an intensely personal performance. No choir required!

[@artfulstories]

Nice! Marc loves singing with symphonies! He has performed with Boston Pops twice, several times in Quebec, Canada, in Mexico, and with various choirs. Two notable ones for me are with the Tbilisi Children's Choir and the Gori Women's Choir in the country of Georgia in 2019. If you do a search on YT, you'll find fan videos. :)

[@troydill3731]

Wow. I was searching for a cover, that captured the three moments in this song that Freddie made so utterly unattainable... I didn't expect to find it it in a soloist. I actually passed by this version several times, tried Lambert, the Danish Symphony, and a dozen others. The Tenors and Sterling were tantalizingly close to capturing what I needed, Freddie but something new. But the all fell short. Then I listened to Marc and the symphony, and he nailed the vocals, now just the accompaniment was off. So I finally clicked on this. I didn't think a version missing Brian's solos melding with Freddie's vocals would capture the feel. But Jesus, this captures it, and freshens it, elevates it. Marc should be touring with Brian and the boys. Thank you for this.

Well... once the world opens up, hopefully we get more of this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWHMe2ereNhlnJY

[@ridha0770]

it's a privilege to listen to you .. singing this

[@Sacana1977]

Always blame my luck for not been able to watch live a Queen concert and listen alive FM´s voice. At least i can listen to Marc.

[@ToddandRaquiForrest]

Strip away all the instruments and background vocals, and you hear how precise his voice is, and then it soars.

[@suellen1971]

Todd and Raqui Forrest That voice is a symphony on its own! ❤️

[@dhdisprsmith2296]

Marc, one word....FABULOUS!! Freddie can rest at peace knowing you are carrying on his music and legacy!! Thank you!!!

[@lionelhunt3610]

What I truly dig about Marc Martel, is the fact that when he does these videos, it's straightforward, no bells, whistles or tracks, just one man and a piano, simply shows how damn brilliant this guy truly is!!

[@artfulstories]

Lionel Hunt absolutely!!

[@merlin7788]

I love that too.

[@333Niam]

You are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT Buddy👍

[@ruatonim]

Damn dude, that was impressive. I link this song to when I was younger, watching the Highlander TV show and wow, you just brought me back to all those years ago. Cheers.

[@joec7177]

Who Wants To ‘Listen to this video’ Forever!

[@jakegutierrez3216]

We all do

[@MDay-nq7gk]

Me!

[@Leander_]

@Black Dog You're also subscribed to Marc's channel to dislike the videos. How pathetic! LOL

[@MDay-nq7gk]

@Black Dog I don't Think so

[@MDay-nq7gk]

@Black Dog I'm sorry I'm french. Je voulais dire que je ne pensais pas que c'était faux, je suis musicienne et je n'entends pas de fausses notes.

[@frankkatsaros8600]

Marc just nails the key notes, every time. Breathtaking. Literally tearing up.

[@valentinagori3733]

WHO WANTS that Marc doing a concert with BRIAN and the OTHERS???

[@Dara.308]

He has

[@alexrambal3685]

Do you see Adam Lambert + Queen ? Amazing Voice and performance

[@nikhildixit5551]

@@alexrambal3685 We all have seen it. Adam sings Pop. It has gained them a huge fan base, but Queen songs have lost their voice.

[@nikhildixit5551]

@BlackQueen29 Because they care more about seeing Brian and May more than listening to the song.

[@nikhildixit5551]

@BlackQueen29 Ability? You know that this isn't a competition of who can singer in higher notes, right... Hell, even Freddie can't sing high notes live... what's that gotta do with it, Songs have tons of parts than just high ones... We're talking about who can sing Queen songs better

[@danielamatteelli5119]

No words are enough to explain this Voice! ❤

[@valeskacordeiro2487]

Wordless... I'm crying, i,'m in love for this version. His talent is absurd

[@whiteduke75]

Marc simply doesn't need America's got Talent, Idols, etc. He has by far proven his skills as a great singer and PERFECT Freddie vocal impersonator. Keep up the good job, guy! 🙏💯💗

[@chesterlane3032]

This is the one of best Cover of Queen's songs and I think it's just plain awesome to see someone who like Marc could sing like Freddie Mercury

[@TunesAndToys]

:49 nailed that breathy phrasing. Unbelievable. Made me smile at that moment. Impeccable. What a gift of a voice. I'd never stop singing if i had those pipes.

[@darklightproductions7303]

This is by far his best cover he's done. Hands Down

[@Flor_2]

For me it’s a draw between this cover and Killer Queen.

[@ThatllShowEm]

I'm partial to his cover of I Will Always Love You.

[@ToddandRaquiForrest]

they are all fantastic

[@aerondulatre6315]

I can't stop watching this every single day.

[@odonovan]

If spirits CAN see us from "the other side," and influence us, Freddie's spirit is with Marc for sure. I'm quite literally trembling, while I'm sitting here watching and listening.

[@suellen1971]

The Real O'Donovan I found myself frozen in time, like the whole world stopped and swept me away for a few magical minutes.... ❤️

[@rafasanfoneiro1]

freddie mercury would be proud of marc martel and the artist he is marc is amazing and thrills to hear him ! Queen Forever and ever 🇧🇷

[@harika_mon]

Never stop singing, especially Queen songs, and like this Marc. With this passion. It will be always a pleasure to hear you playing piano and singing 💜🙏

[@antares____]

Only around two thousand of us were present when this was made live. It's sad to think if this was a mainstream singer that number would be a hundred times bigger, but after listening for the first time, I'm happy to know Marc will reach hearts everywhere. This is merely the beginning.

[@alouisevanloggerenberg8658]

So true

[@JG-iz1fn]

marc martel’s body: freddie mercury’s soul: *it’s free real estate*

[@felixbergbauer6098]

are you saying marc martel has no soul originally? lol ^^

[@DBroCRM]

He just have simlar voice to Freddie, and hes really into music, feel it thats why its so amazing

[@amythompson6869]

Dawid Bronowicki Actually I passed on seeing Queen with Adam because it wasn’t the same but I’d go see Marc with them. I like Adam & I know he brings all the flash they want but Marc really brings back the feeling that Freddie is singing it. JMHO

[@swagiliciousmf]

This is the most accurate meme ever

[@amythompson6869]

go to bed you piecof shof I’d like to add that Idk if Adam plays piano or not but Marc plays it beautifully & with such heart & soul.❤️

[@notimportant10]

Found this just browsing.. wow best find in ages

[@ToddandRaquiForrest]

Visit his channel... there is more... and it is even better!

[@tamasszanka5866]

Look at the ferocity, the power of his performance. Marc is keen to give his best and does not hold back. A hard working musician who can play the instruments well is so rare. Go see him when you have a chance. Congrats Marc!

[@papabearM3]

Tamas Szanka OMG! So so true! Ferocious is the right word, mate! What an Amazing talent!

[@amyjohnson5839]

So amazing in concert. Hope to see him again.

[@derkexh2575]

Saw him live and I can tell you that he is is even more amazing live. Even his dancing and everything is on point👌

[@martyn5939]

I dont understand how Marc's not chart topping, whys nobody pick him up on a label, this is 1,000,000 x better than that utter bollocks in the charts today.

[@papabearM3]

That’s what I say! It’s bonkers! But he has more creative control this way.

[@richardguthrie3422]

He would need to release original material, not just copy other's work

[@rob4aker]

You should listen to downhere, the group he used to be in!

[@grbgeslnger24]

He needs better recognition, seriously

[@ariessl]

True dat sir...

[@jamesleasure8836]

Marc, your talent is a blessing to all who hear you. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@philsterthephilster]

Dam, my eyes are raining. Maestro. Freddie will be smiling...
