Check out Queen Somebody to Love both studio version and Live Montreal.

[@mariafermedina4962]

Yes! Somebody to love ...live Montreal 81'

I agree, watch both. This is a tribute to Aretha Franklin, and the studio version is more gospel-y, with more depth to the harmonies. But the live version from the Montreal in '81 concert is freakin' awesome, with great vocal pyrotechnics from both Freddie and Roger, the drummer.

This is my ultimate classic song ever

[@flyingcloud6776]

This song is a huge classic in it's own category. Queen rule. They made 15 albums and loads and loads of great songs from 1971 to 1991. Their singer Freddie Mercury had an absolutely extraordinary, versatile and emotional voice. He's one of the best, if not the best singers ever. He did everything from hard rock to opera. Unfortunately and sadly he died in 1991 from AIDS, they had no medication for it back then. Please react to Queen "Somebody to love" live in Montreal 1981.

[@columlennon]

One of the ridiculous thing about queen is Brian may one of the best guitarists ever took a 30 year break from a doctorate in astrophysics then he went back and finished it and now he also works with the European space agency as well as touring with queen

[@GinMae]

and... he really is an advocate for animals... with a special fondness for badgers... probably because they are under constant threat of being "culled"... there are hundreds of pics of Dr. May with all kinds of baby animals... but going waaaay back - he used to have a particular affinity for penguins... facebook.com/realmenarekindtoanimals/photos/pcb.10156841096305359/10156841068700359/?type=3&theater

I wish I'd spent more time with her. You never want to find yourself saying that. Appreciate the ppl in your life while you have them.✌❤

[@celticpoet21]

Awesome! Maybe you heard a bit of this from the movies Suicide Squad or Wayne's world. Quick brush up:the lead singer is Freddie Mercury, drummer is Roger Taylor, bass guitarist is John Deacon and lead guitarist is Brian May. I'm surprised you haven't heard about the biopic movie about them, its the same title as their song: Bohemian Rhapsody? I highly recommend it. Also check out documentaries-The days of our lives, Freddie Mercury:The untold story, and The Show must go on The Queen+Adam Lambert story. The best part of Queen is they don't have just one genre, they don't mean one thing: they are timeless, cross genres and even now their music is a breath air because of their pure talent. In case your wondering, the band rarely if ever told people what their songs were about, they rather let the individuals interpret it for themselves. A popular interpretation of the "mama just killed a man" part is the lead singer, Freddie Mercury as coming out as gay and that his old straight self is dead, thats just one of them. Poetry and music doesn't always have to make sense, just enjoy it for its own sake. You are in for a wild ride! Maybe you've heard their works in tasing but didn't realize it: we will rock you, we are the champions, somebody to love, another one bites the dust, crazy little thing called love, your my best friend, etc. I highly recommend White Queen live at the odeon Hammersmith, stone cold crazy live at the rainbow, and fat bottom girls among many. Basically, whatever kind of music or songs you want, they got it! enjoy!

[@justlaura7189]

I'm a new subscriber since you have found Queen! I am happy you discovered Queen. They are the most amazing group ever every single one of them is a legend songs you need to check out Somebody to Love either the official video or live in Montreal 81 Killer Queen Don't Stop Me Now Death on two legs lyric video because if you listen to the live you won't understand the words.

Holla, you and Jarrett are 2 completely opposite personalities, but you are tied in my book for the best reactions to this song. Just goes to show you how Queen and this song grab all of us in the chest and make us gasp. Want another chest grabber? Watch the crowd on any of the Green Day events singing this entire song.

Listeners went wild demanding to hear the whole song. Kenny then played it 14 times in 2 days. Listeners then called the station wanting to buy it.

This song was written by Freddie, who was also an opera fan. The producers didn't want to release this one - it was too long! Watch "Green Day 2017 at Hyde Park" where, before another concert, this song was played, and more than 60,000 attendees sang every word and note of Bohemian Rhapsody, including the guitar riffs. This was in 2017, about 26 years after Freddie died. He will live on forever for many of us.

I'm shocked you've never heard this. I know you've heard several Queen songs in your life, but just didn't know it was them. They are big & influential like Beatles, Rolling Stones, and Pink Floyd. Iconic. PLEASE, for your own musical knowledge/education, please go listen to their greatest hits at the very LEAST. When Freddie died of AIDS in 1991, the group committed the royalties from Bohemian Rhapsody to AIDS research (if I remember right. Please correct my details.)
