[@GerardPare]

Freddie Mercury was a Rock god

[@79mib]

If you’re could time travel, this is where I’d time travel to. ❤🎉

[@TammyDenney]

It’s an experience every time .

[@zuzauramek9850]

Freedy always said that he is not Queen in interviews. He is the lead singer of the Queen band. That there are 4 guys equal. Queen is 4 guys who wrote nr 1 songs, they all sing, play multi instruments, and write songs. Queen is in 2 Hall of Fame as a writer and as a band.

[@lindastinehart2112]

Best frontmen evan❤

[@ВодападРека]

Love

[@bucho448]

[@davidgarner3552]

[@JanS1]

[@TheresaJohns-xp4gh]

Watch live aid to see just how amazing he was with the audience

[@MUSiC-world-20986]

The energy is just 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 here

[@micheleparadis2808]

Yes! Love Queen, love that song and chose Montréal, my hometown!

[@ripsnort8194]

So bad ass man 🇬🇧

[@thenomadicrose]

No one then or now has ever commanded a stage and an audience like Freddie. No. One.

[@marciebulsaraorcutt]

REQUEST: Someday, could you also please react to one more live performance of: “Somebody To Love” Live at MILTON KEYNES BOWL in 1982 …The Milton Keynes rendition is actually the version that Queen included in their compilation of BEST live performances!

[@juliannetomlinson]

Having seen this live version there is also one of this song . Milton Keynes Bowl 1982 which is really great too.But of course it's Queen always great.

[@margaretgillum5787]

We had wonderful music 🎶 back in the day. Queen 💓 is wonderful and beautiful and awesome ..❤

[@aquarius2287]

And that’s how it’s done! Legends!!

[@leslieduncan2405]

Heaven Must have a Hell of a band.

[@helencooper2621]

There are groups, there are bands, then there is Queen!!❤❤❤❤

[@valentinazucca1942]

Yes! Like others have said, you’ve got to react to their live aid concert. It’s half hour long but so worth it!

[@Spucky50]

Wonderful. Personal favorite is Bowie and Mercury "Under Pressure."

[@snahg2356]

I actually really appreciate the preliminary research you do on who you are reacting to. You don't come in ignorant as some do, then you proceed to give us relevant and interesting facts. Thanks so much.

[@vomit6844]

Yes good point. I hate when reactors ask a question and invite people to reply with the answer when they could easily Google the answer themselves. In fact it drives me mad when they do that. I’m getting agitated just thinking about it.

[@jdhlsc169]

Gone too soon! This whole concert in Montreal is awesome!

[@Sandra-911]

And yes...even how good they are....they are better live !

[@ianbrooke6342]

Probably the greatest frontman ever and I doubt he will ever be surpassed. The ad-libbing is so good because of one thing - Talent.

[@dianecostanza]

Freddie is just in a class all to himself which no one will ever match.

[@angelashepherd4429]

Freddie was asked why he never had his teeth. He said he felt his voice may be affected. That's a true performer ❤ Lost him way too soon.

[@JustMe-vk4fn]

Mr. Mercury was right on point regarding a singer's teeth and how making changes in them can adversely affect vocal ability.

[@sabrinavolpiana2363]

He was very professional! That's not beer, but tea with honey for his voice

[@LunaJo67WDHTMJ]

Another one that got away too soon.l I remember when I heard he had died... So unbelievably sad. I loved Queen and Freddy was no doubt one of the best singers ever. Sad how his life was cut short in the end like that.... :( LJ

[@canal.bons.saberes]

We have seen and heard Queen on it's complete majesty: a brilliant guitarrist, a brilliant bassist, a brilliant drummer and the best possible frontmam/ singer. The four, together, sound like an Orchestra.

[@peterd788]

Brian May said that Queen were a very well-oiled machine. They rehearsed and they delivered to the best of their abilities and they were very, very good. No dancing girls, no fireworks. Just them.

[@cathyfrederick5073]

Favorite performance of this song!!!!

[@lornapaningbatan711]

This is one of my favorite song of Queen. Freddie's vocal is amazing. May I suggest to please react to SOMEBODY TO LOVE version in Milton Keynes Bowl 1982 - I'm sure you will love it because it more energetic, more moves.. Thank you for your great reaction. Take care 🙂

[@tommyo2450]

And that is how it's done...

[@kimclark4862]

Freddie. My first and best love.

[@anthonyblakely399]

Everyone in Queen knew their roles and did their roles perfectly!!! I am vey Blessed to witness Queen in the Beginning an now!!! But every time I see Freddie I cry because I and others knew he was performing wih AIDS and it's many complications and there was and still is "No Cure." So, I am always Happy and sad at the same time. Great reaction!!!

[@lindastodola691]

Queen can really gut you!! Yes Sir! Freddie’s Adkins are priceless- Roger is so incredibly talented- you know when I’m just barely in their twenties they lived on and off together- they are very tight-

[@sharonmuntz1872]

Dove down the Queen rabbit hole 4 1/2 years ago and still going! Unbelievable talent!

[@JulieMorganhair1122]

Saw Queen and Billy Squire in Philadelphia 1982!! And I feel live at Wembley 1986 is the best!!💜

[@RuthKing-wm9nw]

His voice blows you away

[@rudymorganti7155]

Rock in peace Freddie ❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🇮🇹

[@belvagurr403]

The guy in charge of his microphone stick is the hero!!!

[@FLmickey90]

It's Queen, it's GOING to be AWESOME!! They're all just amazing! I don't always tear up on songs, but today I did with this one for some reason! I always smile watching or listening to their music, which can't help but do to any of their songs. Great reaction!

[@Peacetrain66]

I was lucky enough to see them live in Denver in the 80s. Magic! RIP Freddie❤

[@DeeVet1]

Actually, it was totally, IN CONTROL! Those guys rehearsed to within an inch of their lives. They employed glances, hand gestures, nods, facial expressions to project what would happen next. They each knew every nuance, every subtle gesture. Every live performance you see is ALWAYS perfection. Queen was always in sync. And, that drummer, Roger Taylor, could vocally hit notes that Freddie called his dog whistle. Implying that some notes were so high they could only be heard by dogs. All while shredding his kit.

[@crowleybo]

👍

[@jeremynelson7920]

I thought the studio version of this song was alright but this version is amazing! This is the version that is in my music rotation.

[@jackdbur]

Remember No electronic voice enhancement, No backing singers, Just Queen the band!

[@Jagangela]

Slayed It!

[@davidclarkson6029]

No auto tune ..no computers ..no lip sinc..All original talent...

[@jocelynmendoza4586]

The best frontman & performer ever❤Freddie Mercury, my number one band Queen ❤

[@LanaLandon]

Pretty sure one of the only mideastern rockers in the world!! I just love that- his parents were so cute. Very proud of him;)

[@janetd8198]

Greatest live performance of all time!!!

[@leslielisty]

The band had perfect synchronicity! GODS, they are, and sadly were. LONG LIVE FREDDIE IN OUR HEARTS!😊

[@ErinsEnergy313]

Freddie left his heart and soul on the stage for his audience, period.

[@melissabeck7932]

Please always try to go with the live videos- I’m loving how you care enough to check out Queen- and Freddie- he is your gift and responsibility to keep his music alive- Sal- it just comes naturally! I’ve loved Freddie for 50 years-

[@ernestpacheco8148]

"Dragon attack" from the same show is a must reaction ... So good !

[@joyceellis9722]

I'm 67. I lived this but I just realize I never really appreciated these artists raw talent until the last few years

[@angelado3]

🔥🔥🔥

[@kuntumlaleanqueezer]

The Greatest Band of all time 👑

[@v.j.3029]

Slay Queen! S-L-A-Y-Y-Y-Y!

[@MizCriz46]

A couple little things about this performance: Something went wrong with Brian's guitar. When Freddie swivels on the piano bench toward Brian, you hear only 1 note. Then, just before the camera cuts away, you see Brian unplug. Roger starts drumming & Freddie starts toward the front of the stage but he's turned & watching Brian go backstage to the guitar technician. Freddie works the audience & Brian is back very quickly. You see Freddie turn to see him coming back. They're such pros, it's nearly seamless. 2nd thing is that Freddie is said to have been put off that the audience wasn't as responsive as Queen audiences usually were. He seemed to have to work a lot more than usual to get them into the chant. Apparently they had been told by security to stay seated during the concert so that's what all those polite Canadians were doing!

[@geminirose55]

Freddie was legendary... there will never be another like him....

[@judyturner3850]

Live with Roger Taylor's backing vocals is awesome.. Thank you for posting this..😊❤

[@sean_b_drummer]

Can you imagine seeing this show then, in the same year, seeing Journey in Houston? What an epic year for concerts!! 🔥🔥

[@jeanniedebartolo5965]

There is no one person that can compare or even come close to Freddie. He was pure magic. Rest in paradise ❤❤❤

[@carrielaliberte3255]

Hard to find the words to describe Freddie’s phenomenal talent and that also of Queen! Must say, You did great with your reaction comments :) Legends ❤

[@gfrega]

You may already know this, but just in case... Sir Brian Harold May CBE (born 19 July 1947) is an English musician, songwriter, singer, astrophysicist and animal rights activist. He achieved worldwide fame as the lead guitarist and backing vocalist of the rock band Queen, which he co-founded with singer Freddie Mercury and drummer Roger Taylor. The legendary guitarist recently put his doctorate in astrophysics to use to help NASA return its first-ever asteroid sample to Earth. The sample was taken from the asteroid Bennu. When he's not rocking out on stage as a founding member of Queen, Brian May enjoys a healthy scientific interest in outer space.

[@deboraclark5791]

Queen was perfection live.

[@kevinmcvey]

I'm sure I don't even have to tell you that it is a MUST that you react to Queen's entire set at Live Aid!

[@jeffmande4671]

Knock out Freddie! Knock out! Miss you!

[@glass2467]

Glad you found this live version. It's f'n amazing.

[@barrysiewert7386]

Really enjoyed your reaction.

[@moog-ur9955]

Make a rection for "Killer Queen and Im in love with my car", also from the Montreal Concert, then you will see a "backing vocal"! 😎

[@florianfondecave8335]

In live, without overdub, without autotune, play-back... Just 4 amazing musicians. Pure sound.

[@dianemiller7705]

You can’t go wrong with Montreal 81 Save Me is even better

[@impudentdomain]

Nothing but talent on that stage, all of them, raw pulsating talent.

[@melissakhalar1842]

I love this so much! Rest in Peace Freddie.

[@kellycrook543]

Queens performance of this song at Milton Keynes 1982, is also so so great!!! Please react to that one too.

[@darrylstaves748]

Genius Creativity

[@belvagurr403]

I’m so happy that Adam Lambert has found that closeness with the band. He’s not Freddie but he is a powerful and fully capable singer.

[@carolynschmidt5467]

Thank you for paying attention.

[@bkniker]

I am absolutely loving your channel.

[@sherryheim5504]

My favorite performance of this song. Thank you.

[@leisastalnaker3790]

Roger Taylor on drums and backing vocals. He slays it.❤❤❤❤

[@cjzito]

Two words: Bohemian Rhapsody. (listen to it)

[@Jeff_Vader]

Technically that was 5 words.

[@Sandra-911]

You have to react to Queen at Live Aid-The BEST performance by anyone EVER!!

[@leisastalnaker3790]

From what I’ve read, Freddie took inspiration from Aretha Franklin on this song. It does sound like church music at the start.

[@adoptgdx651]

When Queen burst on the scene they were like nothing we had heard before. My friends and I would sit around and analyze the music and discuss their performances. They had us entranced !

[@davidkriner3799]

Talking about ad lib, when Freddie gets up from the piano the second time, you can see Brain May going back to change a broken guitar string🎶💫🎸
