Queen - Dear Friends (Official Lyric Video)

[@spencerkalp3417]

Lily of the valley, nevermore and dear friends are all under 90 seconds and yet so beautiful and in my opinion some of queens best songs.

[@michaelrusso996]

Lily of the Valley is 104 seconds...

[@chloejackson5934]

i agree

[@melissagarcia4174]

Mr VEVO Shhhhh

[@martinamontecinos953]

Same stile with Jealousy (but more long)

[@dwarfbeat1]

Yup. I want all three played at my funeral.

[@ddaeng7414]

Nevermore, Lilly of the Valley and Dear Friends- in my opinion, some of the sweetest and most gorgeous songs I've ever heard.

[@angelmoore5687]

Freddie Mercury, the only singer who can make me cry a river in under 90 seconds.

This is album is incredibly underrated!!

[@irinakeyjyan2721]

but commercial...

[@AndresGrimace]

By who? I mean it came after Queen II(the best imo) but, still is very good.

[@tylertresnak8427]

This song is underrated but "Sheer Heart Attack" helped launched them to stardom

[@A47919]

@@user-pq6rm1be4q I would agree; this album is vastly underrated. At times I've thought it's my favorite Queen album, but I'd still have to vote for "A Night at the Opera" as my all-time favorite. It's an absolute masterpiece.

[@m1co294]

It contained Killer Queen though

[@daveowens9849]

Wife and I are huge Queen fans and this song will be the last song played at the wife's funeral this weekend.

[@ielousubmarina]

and then in the same album the same sweet Freddie sang Stone cold crazy... ain't this man the most amazing thing?

Yes amazing. He could do it all with that voice he was given ❤️

It's amazing how only a 1:13 song can make me cry to much. Queen is the only bad who can get me this emotional.

Same here too. 'You take my breath away', does it me too.

[@ecaterinaalexa3637]

Band not bad

[@Keston1302]

Yep I recommend Mother Love. It is their most emotional song imo especially since it’s the last song Freddie ever recorded(he didn’t get to finish it which is why Brian sings the last verse)

[@SrgRespawn]

This song is powerful. The words behind it are incredibly well said and are relatable in multiple scenarios. Queen will never get old.

[@CP-lz9ew]

Freddie's voice was so angelic and innocent when he was young...

[@fabiovalenza9811]

Masterpiece. This music will remain in our history, hank you Mr May, thank you Queen.

[@natalieb6840]

Is it just me, or the shorter songs are often a lot better than the long ones and are just so beautiful?❤️

[@ts5792]

What a lovely song! Too bad it's not longer, but sometimes the shorter the better; just like Nevermore

[@jeremysalkeld8742]

Or Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon.

[@ts5792]

Jeremy Salkeld Yesss!!!

[@ts5792]

Krosh39 _​ Yes! Dear Friends is my new favourite short song and so is Lily of the Valley.

[@HarekaTysiri]

you mean like every one minute queen song?

[@natalieb6840]

I LOVE NEVERMORE

[@kellysargent6509]

The first queen albums are pure masterpieces.

[@GreatestFrontman]

Beautiful song. Freddie’s gorgeous voice with so much emotion touches my soul 🎶✨♥️

[@danysantoro5849]

In my opinion SHEER HEART ATTACK is a top album of 1974

[@rosecohen6597]

DANILO SANTORO tied with queen II.

[@hannyhawkins7804]

Oh yes! And I would add All God’s People- one of Queen’s most glorious moments, IMHO.

[@malcolmaaron4496]

the top album ever

[@emelystrawberry]

it's my absolute fav album by queen ❤️🥵

[@RosemaryJohanna]

This is so bittersweet and lovely. Thank you Brian for writing it.

[@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa9561]

This and Nevermore are some of my favorite Queen songs. So peaceful and beautiful. If I ever have children I’m definitely singing them to sleep with Dear Friends.

[@dunnofunko8053]

Lily of valley and this song is cut soo short....yet both are beautiful

[@donnanaples5214]

My impression is Freddie is singing a lullaby to his fans, Man they are just the best. RIP Freddie SIGH you really and truly are loved and misssd. Of course we can't forget Brian for beautiful lyrics again, nothing short of BRILLIANT MUCH LOVE TO QUEEN!!! ❤️️

[@hi_im_jc1233]

I remember I was babysitting for some little toddlers (Before the coronavirus outbreak) and they refused to go to sleep. I had tried everything at this point, so I sang them this song and they went straight to sleep! it was remarkable! The parent eventually came home after an hour and she was shocked to find I managed to get them to sleep! I told her about this song, and now she plays the song every night for her kids :')

Another amazingly underrated track by Queen that is criminally underrated as it is in my top Queen tracks of all time

[@thorchard]

The Album Sheer Heart Attack became an instant favorite when I first heard it. I listened to it throughout a Hawaii trip. Oddly enough a great island record too! 😂

[@thecodegeek9983]

I am 15 but can already imagine singing this to my kids.

[@lexsoft3969]

"Go to sleep and dream again Soon your hopes will rise and then From this gloom life can start a new And there'll be no crying soon" Sweet... I used to listen this song at night before sleep. The melody suited too. Now these lyrics look even nicer than I noticed years ago.

[@goobywooby963]

[@ЕленаКлементьева-е9ъ]

Все эти коротенькие песни, просто шедевры! Только Queen в двух словах может так много высказать! ❤

[@thecatmangaming5503]

Oh man... what a gorgeous little gem of a song :--) That harmony kicking in always gives me chills and Freddie's voice is so tender and calming, like... goddamn Could really be used as a gentle lullaby That being said, I feel the hidden star of the show here is Brian May's songwriting! Idk how many of you guys have seen the songmeanings page for this, but a lot of people there feel there's some darker (perhaps even suicidal) undertones to the lyrics, and... I can see it, though obviously we don't know for sure what Brian was intending. It does kinda sound like a message from a recently deceased person to their loved ones, like... "your love is gone, only tears to dwell upon" (his 'dear friends' are pretty clearly grieving a loss) But the part that really gets to me are the lines "soon your hopes will rise, and then/there'll be no crying soon"... I can sort of hear that as the suicidal narrator's low selfesteem coming through? It almost has a tone of "yeah you've lost me, but eh you'll be fine and get over it quickly" which sadly I'm sure is something a lot of suicidal people do wrongly believe Any thoughts?

[@ecaterinaalexa3637]

Beautiful. Just beautiful. This song had me crying.

[@NoyNoy-pe2jr]

Never imagined a rock band can perform something like this. Queen is truly talented. From the bassist to the singer, they are truly talented. Such a shame because the songs too short.

[@LIZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ]

If I ever have kids you can bet I’ll be singing this as a lullaby, even if it’s sad

[@tcbell3694]

It has such a hymn resemblance...especially towards the end...I feel like I'm in Church around noon,on a Saturday,heading home after Service to have lunch with my family...Queen was truly unique;what other Rock band could possibly provide such a feeling from a short yet amazing song? Thx,genius quartet! S2

[@suede7799]

진짜 너무 아름다운거 아닌가... 너무나도 사랑스러운 목소리, 곡이다... 가사의 의미도 정말 깊고 아름답고.. 프레디옹 돌아가신 지금 들으니까 슬픔이 배가 되네.. 이 세상에 계실때 나는 태어나지도 않았었지만... 죽어서 정말 꼭 한번 만나뵈고싶다...😢😢 편히 쉬고 계시길..

[@annakratochvilova6496]

This is such a perfect lullaby... If I will ever have kids I'm gonna play this to them every evening before bed.

[@Naileira]

Let me put this straight. Dear Dr May wrote this one and Freddie sang it in 1974. 48 years after that, I'm here, 2022, wondering about a boy and if we would be another thing, and they just give me the answer I needed for my doubts. Holy Christ, I love them insanely

Damned right he is! Many of my favorite Queen songs were written by Brian, including this song, "Brighton Rock," "All Dead, All Dead," "'39," "Long Away" and "Keep Yourself Alive." He's an uber-talented guitarist, gifted composer, and Ph.D. astro-physicist to boot! How many other rock bands can boast such greatness?

I would love to know which member wrote this lyric! I've known it for most of my life, having been a fan for 37 years or more... I've always seen it as to be some melancholy thing.... but really, it's a lyric of hope. lyric of love everlasting, trust and new hopes. There be wisdom in this here lyric. you and I can lose, but just maybe can win in the end. Freddie lost his life, but we all love him so much... I know I do. I love all 4 of them. Freddie, John, Brian and Roger....I thank you 10.10^99 for the beuaty of life your collective music has given me. I bow to no king, queen or monarchy.... but Queen is my all. I am royal family.
