Green Day Crowd Sings Bohemian Rhapsody First Time Reaction | Live Hyde Park 2017

Even after his death, Freddie still has full control of the crowd. Best front man ever. ;)

I can understand why British people feel that way. But, in Alabama, USA my grandson first heard Bohemian Rhapsody 2 years ago when he was 5. Now almost seven he can sing all of it. 😊 I decided there are some songs everyone should know. This was at the top of the list.

[@louiseventer7702]

I can just imagine Freddie looking down at the crowd and saying in the typical Freddie manner: "Well of course they know the words darling."

[@minkyfran8307]

I’m a 57 year old Brit , I raised my son to love Rock music , He was in that crowd , I’m so proud of my boy ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@lindaabbott7120]

When my son was 7 years old, his favorite band was Led Zeppelin (which was totally cool to brag about) now he is 32 and still loves Led Zeppelin

[@sareedoahmed1751]

My daughter loves elton all legends. She is now getting familiar with Queen... She did perfect Freddie's walk completely ❤

[@GhosttisCooll]

The other day I went to my local Tesco and Bohemian Rhapsody was playing and the everyone in Tesco stopped what they were doing and sang along. It's our national anthem at this point

[@RadJarrettTheIntrovert]

Love it ❤️

More to the point, it's our second national anthem!

[@nicholasbrassard3512]

I've had the same thing happen in Canada, when id got to parties when I was younger, didn't matter who was there, if this song came on all 40-50 would start singing this. I don't think it's only a UK thing :P

[@w4ization]

There were actually 65,000+ fans there singing word for word. What really makes this great besides the obvious is that this is a PUNK ROCK crowd, very different from typical Queen fans and a totally different genre of rock music not to mention a completely different age group, it just tells you the ridiculous and legendary mass appeal that Queen has had, when a crowd that big can sing word for word from a different genre of music.

[@RadJarrettTheIntrovert]

Amazing impact in music

[@lesterine77]

I don't think you can put Queen in any genre. They broke through the genre barriers!

Many in that crowd were not born or were just kids when Freddie passed but they know every word. 65,000

[@RadJarrettTheIntrovert]

Amazing

[@williamwoolhouse5018]

When asked what instrument he played, Freddie would say "The audience, darling." That's still true to this day. A true legend to never, ever be forgotten.

[@toodlescae]

You know it's great when a crowd even puts in the inflection and emotion of the song and then sing the guitar part as well.

[@RadJarrettTheIntrovert]

Yes! I noticed that on my second watch as well

[@tammecekus4953]

You know Freddie is looking down from Heaven with Big Smile on his Face and Tears in his Eyes. He was and still is so Loved. ❤

[@maryhuhnke8496]

How often does the audience become the Show?? Artists are in awe when an Audience sings their song back to them. This is a Whole different level!!

[@ellesee7079]

Props to Green Day for releasing the footage, or we would never have known. This happened when I went to see Bon Jovi. They were playing music before the concert and Queen came on. No one on stage but the whole audience were singing. They came on not long after...had to really. We started the concert without them!! 😂 Happy days!

[@debramoore7513]

That’s so awesome!!

[@darkwolf1202]

Green Day love Queen. Bet the guys were singing in the back.

[@trevorgoddard2278]

42 years after the song was released and the year before the movie, 65000+ mainly a young British crowd. I believe that more of us Brits can sing along to this than even know the words to our national anthem.

[@RadJarrettTheIntrovert]

Crazy to think it’s been 42 years

[@billlane755]

Wouldn't Imagine that many of the crowd were even born when this song was written proves that kids in the UK are born already knowing the lyrics to Bohemian Rhapsody 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@Jeni10]

Most of that crowd weren’t even born when Bohemian Rhapsody was released! Just shows the longevity of Queen’s music! 😍❤️👍

[@kathleenohare8770]

Freddie was watching from the heavens....great reaction

[@RadJarrettTheIntrovert]

🙌🏽🙌🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@AnubisX1]

Bohemian Rhapsody is the UK's second national anthem. In fact we probably know the words to Bohemian Rhapsody better than the actual national anthem! What's more at that concert it was just the technicians testing the speakers and this came on and everyone sung. Green Day even delayed coming on so the crowd could finish this. Also most people at that concert would of been to young to be around when freddie was around. Yet everyone in the uk knows it. Its is engrained into every child from birth! Freddie still knows how to control a crowd even in death!

[@vandergrad]

The fact that they didn't just start the first few lines and then have it all fall apart... that even when they had to wait for the musical interludes, they came back stronger, and did the ENTIRE song!! That says it all right there.

[@RadJarrettTheIntrovert]

Talent!

[@kizzia6564]

Its called years of mandatory school singing haha

[@laurabailey2092]

They even sang Brian May’s guitar solos

[@deborahallen3318]

Did you notice the sky opening up in the background? It's as if Freddie came down for a listen! Wow! now that gave me goosebumps! 😎 👑

[@mjrol19]

And in a key vocal in the song, the drum symbol started to waver for a few seconds, and then was still after that.

[@soundofnellody262]

This makes me always cry.. Seeing what impact Freddie Mercury had in his too short lifetime .. Generations later people can sing along every single word of Bohemian Rhapsody.. Queen is legend, always was.. always will be.

[@mjrol19]

And to think that their production people said that it will never sell. It is too long and will never play on radio. If they could see it now!

[@andreasmith6528]

Freddie is still stealing the show 30 years after his passing.

Goes to show how Queen, especially Freddie, influenced us all. Love Green Day. Thnx for appreciating him. Cause I remember Freddie alive, he wasn't loved by many. He was mocked and attitudes very different then. I love these videos, just wish he was around to know how much he was loved. But I remember Live Aid, Flash Gordon, I'm lucky to grow up with Queen. Raised my boys on Queen n rock. Long live Freddie Mercury, best front man. Ever. ❤

[@angiemottershead1394]

Let the crowd do their thang. No interuptions. Just enjoy. Long luve Freddie and Queen. Miss you Freddie. The world would be a better place if you were here now. Xx

[@susannalavallee2348]

I hadn't heard of this con either, and a little into it, I thought "where's Freddie?" When is Freddie going to take the stage/microphone with them??? THEN I looked at the concert date. 2017......that was my answer....I am actually crying right now...texting through my tears.

[@juliatobiason3932]

The fact that every concert was like this without fight’s breaking out is amazing. Look at society today. There are fight’s everywhere even in small crowds but it shows you how music brings us together. Music is a way of healing ♥️

[@LadyGator1983]

Footage of 65,000 people singing Freddie Mercury's 'Bohemian Rhapsody' is one of the most moving videos we've seen in a long time. The incredible moment occurred in Hyde Park on July 1, 2017 when Green Day were in London on their Revolution Radio tour.

[@TheStein474]

This was a punk one day festival. Green day headlined but it wasn't part of their revolution tour. There was two stages and about 9 bands played that day

[@thunderfoot5167]

ONE Queen song, 65,000 people = ONE MASSIVE Tribute to one or GREATEST National Treasures.

[@cjoyce_1240]

Look at the mark Queen has left n how even with Freddie gone the present impact he had left. No other band in the world can ever have this happen. I have the chills. Ty Freddie for giving us this music for eternity. I love n miss u so much it hurts. Always in my heart!

[@stevehughes6627]

That's one thing for a British crowd; we know, love and appreciate what we'd love to be our national anthem. And for most of us it is!

[@Anisabell2]

[@tanialake6994]

Queen is an institution in the UK, apart from the first national anthem, Bohemian Rhapsody is our second. If we don’t know it, then there’s something wrong somewhere. This is Freddie controlling the crowd from heaven! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@mercuryangel9223]

Freddie has been gone almost 30 years and these young people sang the entire song that he wrote when he was in his 20's!!! Thank you for a very respectful reaction. I am fortunate in that I got to see them live 3 times with Freddie and once with Paul Rodgers!.

[@NerFighterforever]

my favorite memory of singing this song is when I went to paris senior year college with my friends, we were drunk walking home and my friend and i started singing it, and this other group heard us stopped and sang it with us. now they didn't speak english we didn't speak french but we finished the entire song

[@bettybaby63]

What a legacy they created. Most of these people probably weren’t even born when Freddie died, let alone being around when the song was first released. Hoping you feel better!

[@RadJarrettTheIntrovert]

You are right, neither was i but i feel like i know them now. Thanks for the well wishes.

[@dannycane2009]

We have this song running through our veins here in the uk 🇬🇧🤣 this video gives me goosebumps bumps every time I see it. I've been in crowds that have done the same but never this big.

[@williamwalker487]

This track is so well known and loved in the UK it’s like a second national anthem.

[@RadJarrettTheIntrovert]

Very well known to me now too lol

[@3ScotsInk]

Hmm. Wonder who was responsible for parting those ominous black clouds and letting the sun rays shine down on the audience? Freddie's watching all of this, all of you new fans, all of us long time fans watching you. I can see him smiling, jumping around, boxing at the air. His mission in life was to make people happy-- nice that we can return the favor. We've all done him proud! So glad you did this one. Great job! 💛❤️

[@NiMari.]

You were watching 65,000 people most of whom are not from the "Queen generation", sing it in unison, with the harmonies and guitar, at a concert for a different band 42 years after it was released... Only Freddie and Queen could do a show without never showing up, what a day it was.

[@blastingweevil2968]

it is soo good to see a whole new generation of queen fans paying respect and honor to queen and freddy 30 years after his death i dont think any other artist or group will ever accomplish this. RIP Freddy we still love you !!

[@fredmerc46]

У меня даже слов нет, чтобы выразить чувства! Фредди был, ЕСТЬ и БУДЕТ непревзойденным и неповторимым! То, что он со сцены магически влиял на аудиторию, это было необычно, но объяснимо. Но чтобы так владеть аудиторией, даже не присутствуя на сцене, - это за гранью! О, Фредди! Как тебя не хватает! Ты был и остаешься самым искренним и по-настоящему любящим своих слушателей. В этом твоя магия, а не только в таланте и гениальности.

You could argue that, in simplest terms, that Roger Taylor and Brian May without Freddie and John is just a cover of itself. Roger and Brian consistently wrote hits. Where have they been the last 30 years (yes, there were a few releases)

[@georgeringley2667]

You, my friend, are a joy to watch. It wasn't just the crowd singing. I saw your mouth moving too. Addictive isn't it? As I get to know you better I realize that you are my polar opposite with your wry grin and soulful eyes. I'm glad you did this reaction and hope you can feel even a portion of the spirit we kids that were teens in the 60's and 70's had. Love, peace and awesome music made for a great generation. Be in the vanguard of your generation and spread the word for the music we know well.

I get goosebumps every time I watch this video! I saw another one that was recorded in the crowd. Not as good but you do get to see that many of these people were probably not even born yet when Freddie passed. Freddie is timeless and everybody knows him and queen! He would be so humbled and proud.

[@anne-mariesindruprix4792]

The brits are known for their singing ability - and they call this their second national anthem. If you haven't heard it you can hear their singing ability every year at The last night of the proms - that is broadcast all over the world with big crowds outside Albert Hall - and several other venues. I'm from Denmark and see it every year - and sing along - - and my grandchildren play some of the music in their school orchestra ,as well as "Don't stop me now"- - so it is very much alive. We got through the covid restrictions by singing - we had a radioprogram every day - with a host - leader of the girls choir in the radio - would play and sing - - and everybody was listening from their balconies - singing together .btw. the girls choir was not together - they were singing from their homes via one of the computerprograms!! I guess that in your country you are better at the different rhythms - and we are better at melodies and singing. I'm 71 -sing in a choir - and have been since I started at school . I don't know what will happen with generations to come - rhythm or melody?? What was your upbringing?

[@jeffstevens4262]

Whenever I watch this amazing video, I can't help wondering what the Green Day band members backstage were thinking when they heard their own crowd singing this. I reckon they must have been absolutely blown away as much as I was when I first saw it. Just incredible. 🙋‍♂
