I just love that Freddie made it obvious that it was playback. Not a lot of singers do that. One more thing to love about him

[@lorie1482]

Korni Csizman ... I know he’s so blatant with it..........he like fuck it if I gotta do this way ..... then I’m a do it my way😂

[@PauloHowlett]

It was obvious anyway, because of the fade out in the end of Tear ot Up.

[@ritch195]

Yes but they blatantly did it cos they hated miming

Montreux Festival ; they were hometown boty coz they had their studio there and Freddie had an apartment; they couldn't say no. Montreux is the only place that gave Freddie a statue in his memory.

[@royrowland5763]

I remember watching Brian on MTV in the '80s and introducing this as "Live-ish." He wasn't about to pretend that what MTV was showing was an actual live performance.

Lessons guys it's not a playback. The guy who put the video taken from Queen - 'Greatest Video Hits 2 disc 2'. He mix the images & sound together. That's the point. By the way it's a very small place at Montreux. So when we saw Freddie singning without is mic, i'm soi shure the assistance heard pretty well Freddie's voice. So Freddie play with that !

[@nancyblumberg4612]

Why would anyone do that? Seems weird. Freddie needs a bigger stage. He is so much larger than life

[@shelby6972]

this is where there studio was and queen was there quite a bit, queen started there, the town loved queen and Freddie and when he passed they were the only city to put up statue in memory of him, in pretty sure they did the concert because it’s pretty much queens hometown in a way.

[@SheWoreLemon83]

Who cares if this is playback? Freddie looks just as good pretending to sing as he does when doing it for real.

[@karendalsadik7119]

SheWoreLemon83 it is cool how his moves changed from the Liar! video. He was so creative. It is like he gave more to entertain b/c it was play back.

[@karendalsadik7119]

Pitchu não Pikachu that is cool.

[@karendalsadik7119]

hawabonga zothew I am not sure if this is the case here. Scientist have actually studied Freddie's voice. Amazing in itself!! I am not able to explain this well. He was use his larnyx a & move surrounding areas most singers cannot. He was using some of the techniques of Mongolian Throat Singers (Khoomei). The scientist measured the rate of his vibrato. Pavoritti is the only one who could beat him. Throat singers these days have teachers. Even in the days of the Chinghis Khan they probably had a relative or someone to help train them. It has always been said he didn't have any formal training. The Mongols conquered Persia. Maybe it was genetic. He was born to love us!
