Paige Queen B well I think it has a lot to do with a difference in culture as well.

Just like a lot of white people probably wouldn’t recognize songs that were extremely popular in the African American community.

You probably don't know this, but this is where MTV started. This was the first music video ever created by any band in history. Had it not been for this song & video in the mid 70's.... MTV might never have been. This song was number 1 on the charts for about 3 months & about 10-15 years later hit number 1 again for weeks again. The movie was Wayne's World! Freddie Mercury was the greatest Singer & Frontman of all time and I've heard everyone from the 50's to now. He had a 4.82 vocal range & used subharmonics, which no other singer has ever been able to do.

+Celeste King The very 1st video to be played on MTV was "Video Killed The Radio Star" by I believe their name was Buggles and Rugsy. I don't know if I am spelling it correctly but I watched it when it 1st debuted & it stuck in my memory ever since!!

[@user-ti4dl8tw7h]

@@themedicalmystery4797 it's before actual MTV was there, but still it's l like the first "music video" that was made

[@RyanAcidhedzMurphy]

The first "music videos" were produced in the 1920's. Short films done in the style of musicals, usually featuring a single song and movie star. Depending on the criteria used, videos of music performances have been around as long as videos with audio. AND when silent movies were being made there were composers who had films made to accompany their pieces. In 1956 Tony Bennett had himself filmed walking through a park, and then set it to one of his songs. Which is likely the first time an artist recorded a video to go with a song, that wasn't a performance. Bands in the 60s did all sorts of videos. Bohemian Rhapsody was the first time a video was used as a major part of the promotion for a song, but it wasn't the first music video by a long shot. And they didn't just pull the video out of their asses either. This video predates theirs by 11 years. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmWVnK17dp6fbrM

The harmonies you're hearing at the beginning are all Freddie Mercury layering his own voice. Whilst Him, Roger and Brian could all harmonise really well, Freddie was the only one who really knew what was going on when they stated recording this song. You can hear their harmonies with eachother in the operatic section :)

[@danielbronson8718]

He was talking about killing himself psychologically. The person he was, for the person he wanted to be. It's a metaphor. Good catch.

[@achnichts922]

In fact it is his coming out, he kills the man aka the hetero guy he has to be.

[@linusromey561]

"In fact" this is the myth that people just keep repeating no matter how many times it has been debunked, disavowed, and completely proven as false. If that's what it means to you, that's fine, but stop trying to represent it as fact. It is not. Freddie stated that it was bits of three different songs he was working with and decided to put the ideas together with a bit of "silly" stuff in the middle. He refused to ever say what the song was about. Any implication otherwise is purely speculation and should be stated as such.

Thanks for the explanation, I took it as what I said before mainly because of the lines " just killed a man" and "I don't want to die" but I am quite happy to learn the reality of his lyrics and to learn the truth behind the song. I probably saw one of his latest performances and jumped to a depressing conclusion. Anyway thanks again for explaining it

[@Vader_sFist02]

Ive seen other reactions nd it still thrills nd chills me to this day that this song still captures and attracts any type of audiences with completely different music interests. This one literally tying ppl together as one. For being a song from almost 40+ years ago is insane, it is truely legendary. Queen will remain unforgotten. I just hope us humans aren't stupid enough to destroy nd ruin iconic historical events and iconic legends only to be forgotten.

Hi, just found you and from UK, so really glad you chose Queen. Please check out their set at Live Aid 1985 (a benefit concert) held in London & Philadelphia USA on the same day. The band wrote their own songs & Lead Singer, Freddie Mercury had a vocal range of 4 octaves & also had an opera duet single late in his career. There's a film of Freddie's life story coming out here in Nov (not sure when in US) but check it out …….

@@fredv6237 yes it's extremely sad. It doesn't only make music an empty emotional force. It also takes the creativity out of the industry that used to create music from masterminds like Queen, Michael Jackson, Hound Dog Tayler, Bonni Taylor and so many more before them. Young people needs the creative side to develop their brains for a bright future.

[@matthewgreen6131]

Also if you want a gut wrencher. Freddie Mercury was on his death bed. He didn’t want to quit though. The fee times he was well enough to sing they would record what little they could. One time, right before he died he took a swig of whiskey and busted out one of his greatest performances and in one take blasted out the song Mother Love. Now if you hear the song and freddies performance it will get you, but even more about halfway thru the song the vocals cut out and when they come back in its brian may singing. Freddie had died before the song was done. But they still finished the song. Think of that when you listen to it and it will punch a hole in your man card because that shit gets to you.

Recording songs gave him a purpose to get up everyday. He said that he wanted to just fucking sing for as long as he could. His voice is so amazing. Remember, this was a man very sick from AIDS and dying. His doctor's originally told him had until 1989 or 1990 to live when he was diagnosed with AIDS in 1986. Freddie died too soon. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWOxYYehm9eEnrs Mother Love, the last song that Freddie recorded 6 months before dying from complications due to AIDS, he became too ill to complete the last verse, Brian May finished it. The ending is a sped-up mash of all Queen songs and finally a Freddie singing as Larry Lurex the song Goin' Home. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKO2e5Whj7SppZI The March of the Black Queen (Deep Cuts Version), kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4i0goCdm5eEl68 One Vision (Extended) 1985 [Official Video], kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4CqlWedpdGrh68 Was It All Worth It?, kzbin.info/www/bejne/mn_Zq32Vmad7nLM For pure emotion White Queen, kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGnYpIGgad1shKM Flick of the Wrist, a very under-rated song, kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6OkoZSOn5qEo6M We Are the Champions, kzbin.info/www/bejne/noS3mqmMmNGEh5I Who Wants To Live Forever (Live At Wembley Stadium, Friday 11 July 1986), kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4DLpn5tlr-Ur9k Who Wants To Live Forever (Official Video) Brian May sings the opening on this version, kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXvXoZlug5p8eqc Liar (Official Video), notice the glove on his left hand also notice John Deacon is singing with Freddie, John disliked singing because he said he a singer like the other 3 members, kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYaao6R4bqqSZq8 The Prophets Song (Official Lyric Video) Brian Mays epic song, kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqvHm4CCgLCXnc0 Freddie doing impromptu, kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYixe4Bpg65pY9E These Are the Days of Our Lives, Freddie's last video and his goodbye to Queen's and his fans. Freddie loved his fans. He could barely walk or stand for long periods of time and yet, the band members, say he never complained. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKmynoybrtKFptk There are so many great songs by Queen. I think the best way to appreciate them is to listen to their albums beginning with Queen, their first albums. They experimented with their sound throughout the years, trying to keep Queen fresh. I even like the Jazz and Hot Space albums. Another thing to do is watch the KZbin videos on the making of an album or songs. There's a great vid of the making of Bohemian Rhapsody. Watching the videos of interviews and watching them record or work on albums/songs is interesting. I especially, loved the fun that they had on the Making of One Vision. Roger had in his words nicked words from MMLK's speech, went away on a short vacation and came back to Freddie rearranging the words. The parody that Freddie does is off color but funny. They worked hard, played hard, fought and got sick of each other but always came back because they knew they were better together, as Queen.

I've learned to live with it all...I need the pain to cherish the little nuggets of joy music brings making everything worth it.

[@Floppyearsmomma]

Wayne’s World brought this song to another generation. I was blessed enough to be around as a teenager when Queen hit the scene originally. Many people believe that this song represents Freddie’s struggles with his sexuality. Freddie was deeply in love and engaged to a girl named Mary. They lived together for 7 years. Freddie was also born into a family rooted in an ancient religion and fled to the African Island of Zanzibar because of religious persecution. This religion considered gay lifestyle a form of demon worship. In this context, it is easy to see how conflicted and torn he felt as his sexual appetite for men could not be repressed. He knew he had to “face the truth”. The married life he wanted with Mary was “gone and thrown away.” Freddie himself said that he could never fall in love with a man in the same way he did a woman. Only Freddie knows for sure and he never defined the meaning of this song. He wanted his listeners to project their own interpretation onto the song. When I was young I always thought it was tongue in cheek about how he had murdered someone and now he has to face a death sentence. In the 70’s after all Johnny Cash was constantly talking about how “He shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.” And Queen guitarist even referred to the “put a gun against his head” as Freddie’s “Cowboy Song.” So I think Freddie got his way and is sticking his tongue out at us amused that we don’t really know! 😉 The film is excellent. It took some artistic liberties and I have read some people are angry that so much emphasis was placed on Freddie’s love affair with Mary in order to make him seem more straight, but there’s no getting around the love he had for her. I really love your channel! I am subscribing and will be viewing more!!!

Yes, yes, yes, this! Time is still one of my favourite Bowie songs and I've listened to his entire discography.

Can't there be a series of Bowie reactions too?
