And one of the amps featured here is the 'Deacy', a practice amp John Deacon cobbled together from a sub-1 watt radio circuit board salvaged from a trash dumpster. When pushed with a treble booster, and due to fortuitous circumstances (an early circuit design using germanium transistors that also happened to be mismatched, and somewhat undersized transformers that go into magnetic saturation) it creates those unique bell-like tones.

Freddie Mercury was a gift to humanity. You're quite correct, there will never be another Freddie Mercury, and we are the poorer for his death from HIV/AIDS. Of course, the reason that we're talking about Freddie is in part because Queen was such a killer band (no pun intended) and the songs they crafted stretched the boundaries of rock 'n roll as a genre. The songs could've been done by a mediocre band with a mediocre frontman...and we'd end up with music that most folks would shrug at. But Freddie wasn't mediocre, Queen wasn't mediocre, and the songs were NEVER mediocre. Thank goodness.

Fabulous classic! Its been a while! Queen just makes everything better! This song is from their third album, Sheer Heart attack and was what catapulted them into the public eye. The show this video was for "top of the pops" was for all up and coming artists and unfortunately, it was required for the band to mime/lip sync to a playback track. Even the drum symbols were fake. The experience must have been pure torture for them to have to mime and also a major insult to their artistic talent and professional integrity. They actually never played the entire song through when they sang it live, it was always part of a medley. They didn't sing it at live aid, but they sang it live at Montreal 1981, which went into "I'm in love with my car". While his stage presence was very dramatic or theatrical, he never pursued acting, he didn't have the patience for it.

Same here. One of their best songs. Extremely well crafted.

I first heard this when I was about 11 and I thought I was on acid. I didn’t know what acid was back then.

I was like 12-13 when this came out and I thought it was about the same woman Elton John sings about in Bennie and the Jets "She has electric boots, a mohair suit". Don't ask me why I thought that, but I was very confused as to who this strange and wonderful woman was.

When you listen to queen on head phones and to music bounce back and fourth left and right is crazy it stimulates your brain. R.I.P FREDDIE WE MISS YOU

Killer Queen was the song that made me a lifelong Queen fan back when I was in junior high. Rest well, Freddie.

A really beautiful song by Queen is called ‘These are the days of our lives’. I think it was written by Roger Taylor, Queen’s drummer. It was one of the songs Freddie sang towards the end of his life. It’s such a beautiful song made all the more poignant because it was towards the end of Freddie’s life.

I can remember seeing this on Top Of The Pops when it first came out. Everyone at school the next day was talking about it. Most of the kids in my class bought this single.

Omg look at that coat!!! Man had style. I adore the lyrics to this song. Caviar and cigarettes, and I bet Freddie had lots of both. Their opera like harmonies are the bomb 💣💣💣

The one and only Freddie Mercury, what a performer, you just cant get better than Queen. Have you done "sheer heart attack" another great song from Queen.

This is the song that got me hooked on Queen at age 13. I went back and got caught up with Queen I and II, and finished just in time for the release of 'A Night At The Opera'. I really was blessed to have been the age I was with all of this music that people now call 'Classic'.

Freddie was always more present than anyone else in the room. Would have so loved to see them live.

Y'all are killin' me! A reaction video to Killer Queen??? This is the first Queen song I'd ever heard, some 40+ years ago! I was hooked! Freddie inspired me so much, that I decided singing was what I was meant to do, and because of him, I'm still a singer, to this day ♫

Everytime I hear Freddie’s voice it’s like hearing the voice of your long lost best friend. It just drapes you in comfort. One of my very faves of Queen. 💕RIP Freddie, we love you. 🌈❤️

I had the chance to see them live twice and Freddie never disappointed. It started back in 1973, I believe, with their first album and continued on from there.
