I'm old I love queen, and I love katy perry, This is the first time listening to this and this is exactly as it should sound. She is exactly as she wants to be. Not to please anybody, just doing her music the way she wants.

[@dreamingissleeping]

exactly this

[@Batman-zc4ui]

"Not to please anybody" is... dumb to put it lightly. Especially for a public entertainer. I get that she can sing and do whatever she wants but if it's done in a public show, one better be ready to take the criticism.

[@kylan_11]

jesus why this much hate YES it's not the best cover this song has had, she's obviously having trouble with reaching the lower notes (friendly reminder this song was written by and for a low tenor such as freddie, katy is a light soprano) so she has to go for alternative notes on the fly and im guessing she didnt rehearse it well but she sang on tune, remember this song is a bitch to sing live (not even freddie could do it justice every night) and she delivered a passionate performance, i can see that shes a true queen fan and this is nothing but her tribute to a band that she very clearly loves so i really dont see why all the hate

[@megansiruno6359]

People bashing her? Atleast she didn't use autotune, unlike those wannabe vocalist who uses high dose of autotune to sound good, besides this was a tribute for queen, please respect that. Freddie told the press that "Do what ever you wanna do with my music just don't make it boring". If you hate the tribute for Queen then just don't listen same if you hate Katy Perry.
