Freddie Mercury - CRAZY TOUR VOCAL RANGE (D3-F#6)

[@rickysld]

As you saw, I cut very short on the low notes. I tried so hard to find some lower notes, but I couldn't. If you know a performance where Freddie sings lower than a D3 (of course in the crazy tour) let me know that I'll edit and reupload the video.

[@ZENOBlAmusic]

You don't really ever see a lot of low notes from Freddie, and some people he is a baritone. He would definitely be singing a lot more lower notes if he was a baritone.

[@rickysld]

I think his voice got more "baritonish" in the later years (1984/88). Anyways, in the crazy tour, he was definitely a tenor.

[@thepacmanface3815]

@@rickysld He was baritone man

[@DryPaintDealerUndr]

@@thepacmanface3815 I think the general consensus now is that he's a tenor just a lower tenor

[@MilesAway]

@@thepacmanface3815 Listen to Freddie's Ibex performances, he's definitely a natural tenor.

Newcastle 1st night come through is so beautiful

[@iamjudy6518]

My favorite "come through"

[@mercuryrising4323]

I was at Alexandra Palace in 1977 when the Crazy tour blew my ears away. He was amazing. Save me was the new single and my late friend and I enjoyed the best concert of our lives. I wish there was more footage of that concert anyone?

[@JourneyLiveCompilations]

2:52 One of my favorite ones. He doesn't go down like Glasgow 12/1 and Newcastle 12/4. This is also the best show in my opinion ever.

[@anshshah4927]

Wow the ease on low tenor register is just amazing

[@sel1mn477]

Yeah! Freddie at his best shape.

[@infernow2125]

I think the "carry on carry on" must be one of the most satysfying things ive ever heard

[@JourneyLiveCompilations]

I really like the transition from the intro to live. Great video! Crazy Tour Freddie rocks!

[@EmilianoLoconsolo]

OMG.. the way you find all those hidden gems and compare them is astounding. Great job mate 👍

[@fluffypenguin888ramirez6]

2:57 this is the best version would you agree?

[@rickysld]

Yes, definitely. The run he does is the best one out of the three.

[@Fan-lm3vb]

For me 1st Newcastle this is just second

[@RivalHades-mk1xl]

Literally chills

[@ZENOBlAmusic]

Excellent work! This properly took some time to put together. I think a vocal range of the Magic tour might also be interesting.

Vocally Newcastle 12/3 Newcastle 12/4 Liverpool Glasgow Hammy Musically Liverpool Hammy Newcastle 12/3 Glasgow Newcastle 12/4

[@fluffypenguin888ramirez6]

I think Glasgow is higher than Liverpool vocally and Also that Hammy is the best Instrumental show

[@liamg1203]

I think Newcastle 12/3 better musicianship than Hammy, Newcastle 12/3 doesn't have any mistakes from Brian, Hammy Brian messes up on songs like Save Me, Spread Your Wings, only mistakes in Newcastle 12/3 is like John bass flub in Save Me

vocally this tour is the best but that is not enough to make it the best of the band The style of the clothes, how they play and the decoration of the stages is disastrous this tour

Yeah, works and crazy tour are like the opposite: - Crazy tour: Average looking stage, boring clothes, average lighting rig, but incredible vocals. - Works tour: Best looking stage, best stage costumes, best looking lighting rig, but very bad vocals and band

Wasn’t crazy little thing called love in the game album but there’s also the game tour so why the separate tour?

[@rickysld]

Crazy little thing called love was released in 1979 and this tour was done to promote it (that's why it's called "crazy" tour). Since it became a hit, they kept that song in the setlist.

[@alexsentertainmentplace809]

Wow they did a whole tour cause one song that’s cool and it’s one of my favorites

[@BenMurphy-go2ks]

@@alexsentertainmentplace809 it’s also because Queen didn’t play the UK at all during the Jazz tour, so it was kind of making up for that.

[@sciadi7716]

Io sinceramente considererei le note alte su Now I’m Here e Bohemian Rhapsody a Liverpool più dei Do5 un po’bassi che dei Si4. Sono all’incirca entrambi una trentina di cent sotto il Do, il che li rende più vicini alla nota sopra, ma in fondo non è importi più di tanto!

[@rickysld]

Un Dob5 (Cb5) equivale a un Si4 (B). Puoi anche usare una tastiera, a Liverpool la nota è più vicina a un Si4 che a un Do5. Comunque per "Now I'm Here" hai ragione, avrei potuto contare le note alte, ma sono comunque La4, che dopotutto non sono molto rari in questo tour.

[@rickysld]

Comunque fa stranissimo parlare di queste cose in italiano, usando le note italiane (non credo di averle mai usate se non per fare flauto alle medie)

[@sciadi7716]

Riccardo Soldà Già, infatti non sapevo se scrivere il commento in inglese proprio per questo, comunque intendevo che anche la nota alta su Now I’m Here (AAAaalright) è secondo me più vicina al C5 che al B4, solo che non parlando mai di questi argomenti in italiano può capitare di non sapere come esprimermi per bene. Comunque il “diEE” su Bohemian Rhapsody a Liverpool continuo a sentirlo più vicino al C5 che al B4 :(

[@sciadi7716]

Riccardo Soldà Comunque bel video, sarebbe bello anche uno sul NOTW Tour.

[@rickysld]

Grazie, questi video richiedono molta ricerca quindi mi fa piacere che la gente li apprezzi. Adesso, senza avere i video di gregsynthbootlegs a disposizione, sarebbe un suicidio fare un altro video di questo tipo, quindi per un po' non ne farò. Poi essendo iniziata la scuola ho anche meno tempo libero.

[@jacobinghoy3551]

Crazy tour is considered one best tour ever, magic tour is the 2nd

[@spider-man120]

Nice yeah I say it’s Freddie’s best tour, but the band are so sloppy for like no reason and even Freddie’s piano playing isn’t great which is weird cause he was always great, this also might be Brian’s worst tour, Johns and Rogers lmao, definitely not the best tour, but Freddie vocally wise yes.

[@rickysld]

Yes, that's what I also think. The only good thing in this tour is Freddie's voice.

[@chickenmen2105]

Vincent Vasquez yep exactly same thought!

[@lilvegan2002]

You read my mind buddy

[@BenMurphy-go2ks]

Maybe not the worst musical tour because they still have a slight Jazz tour edge in that regard, but it’s one of their sloppiest tours.

[@iamjudy6518]

But Liverpool and Hammy is great imo

F#6? Entonces su máxima nota no era F6
