[@hippiejane2683]

From the website Songfacts: Brian May had the dream that inspired this song years before he wrote it. He wasn't trying to push any religious agenda with the lyric, but he did want to convey a message. "In the dream, people were walking on the streets trying to touch each other's hands, desperate to try and make some sign that they were caring about other people," he told Melody Maker in 1975. "I felt that the trouble must be - and this is one of my obsessions anyway - that people don't make enough contact with each other. A feeling that runs through a lot of the songs I write is that if there is a direction to mankind, it ought to be a coming together and at the moment, it doesn't seem to be happening very well."

[@carmenfelton3171]

I have to say, I'm always looking forward to your reactions. You point out things even a hardcore fan sometimes miss. And I can only agree to the suggestion to listen to Queen with headphones on. This way you won't miss anything. It's an old habit from me anyway and this way there's more to enjoy. Another thing I'd like to point out is how effortlessly Freddie can adjust his voice to every genre and style of music. He's unbelievable versatile and his ability to colour a single note with emotion, to give every line a different nuance and glue it all together to a masterpiece is outstanding. You're not only listen to Freddie sing, you basically feel the song as well.

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Good to hear fomHow beautifully articulated Carmen. Thank you. I shall not ruin what you said with my rambling lol. I totally agree about your statement about Freddie. He did have a way to paint in emotions as such. RIP. 💜 (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

[@mustangdebbie56]

The middle A Cappella (not acoustic) section, as others have said, is Freddie singing into a tape machine with delay. That machine plays what he just sang and a second one plays after another delay. Both machines play while he is singing so he is singing with himself delayed twice, as you can hear in right and left. The fun part is when he sings "come here" then immediately sings "I You" so that in the playback you hear "come here, I hear you". This live delay is also how Brian does his solo in Brighton Rock. Brian's dream could have been when he was very sick with meningitis before the Sheer Heart Attack album, but didn't write the song until the next one. He apparently wrote She Makes Me ( Stormtroopers in Stilletos) during that time, another rather trippy Brian May song.

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Thanks for your comment. I can hear switching between both ears heavily in this one. Yes at the end of my video I do clear that up and say acappella. Oddly I haven't heard that song you mentioned either. Thanks for the analysis and breakdown. Somebody did mention it was Freddie singing with himself. But you have added a little more depth related to the "I you" segment. I wonder if that was by accident and the band discovered it in the studio. (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

One of their best and underappreciated and underrated songs. Freddie's voice is so powerful here, and what you hear is their 'royal' sound, which make you recognize that this is Queen the first second you hear them. Beautiful.

[@danapb]

Someday, just put on your headphones or sit in a quiet room and listen to "A Night At The Opera" from beginning to end. It's really the way it was meant to be enjoyed. When I was 10 yo in '75, I went to my friend's house and we sat in her brother's room and listened to this just like that. He had his speakers set up across the room from one another so we got the whole panning effects. I was speechless. It made me an instant Queen fan, at 10 yo.

[@allanriach]

Love your reactions! Yes headphones are needed for that one. They pushed recording techniques available at the time to the absolute limit to achieve the sound they wanted. A bit of an abrupt end as the album version goes straight into Love Of My Life. Try and listen to the 2 tracks together. The best 12 minutes of music you will ever hear.

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Oh I am glad I didn't react to them back to back.🤯 this song it self, as I said at the end of my video is MAGICAL. But I can't put my finger on why that is. Perhaps that is the vibe the Band wanted to create. 👑 (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ)©️

[@montrelouisebohon-harris7023]

Brian May wrote this song!! In the early years were four about the first five to seven years Brian and Freddie Mercury used to write most of the song but by about 1979 or 1980 they were all 4 writing like mad. John Deacon was the Dark Horse and quiet but he could come out of nowhere like a madman with a number one hit.

[@betseyclark2832]

To me, this song sounds futuristic, as if after an apocalypse. I enjoyed your reaction, your attention to small details and your appreciation for Queen's more experimental side. Over the years Queen trained their fans to expect the unexpected, to be surprised. That gave them so much freedom with their songwriting, and created for them a very devoted fan base.

[@etc7070]

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but the end with the guitar actually leads into Love of My Life (that's why it cuts off a bit). This is where context matters on a "concept" album like Night at the Opera. Can you imagine that, an incredibly epic song, lyric and audio-wise, melting away into something as simple like Love of My Life? (Brian learned how to play the freaking HARP just for this.) Anyway, loved your reaction, it's definitely a trip!

[@dianefowler8779]

After listening to this, go to Queen doing this song at Earl's Court in 1977. It is an amazing, eerie and awesome piece of music, done by Freddie, who sings in harmony with himself on 2-second delay.

[@robdaviesprogm]

That acoustic middle section shows the absolute genius of Freddie Mercury. It was done using a delay machine (new technology at the time). Freddie went into the vocal booth and improvised some vocals, which were then fed through the delay machine twice, with the result that Freddie was able to create three-part harmonies with *himself* through the use of impeccable timing and pitch.

Brian always used multiple echo devices so he could play harmonies with himself during concerts. Freddie used this technique to do the middle vocal section live. Always innovating.

[@barbararosen2658]

Masters of pulling that rug right under you. This song should be studied both musically and lyrically. Prophetic like’39, also Brian May, they had vision on so many levels. Just before this I watched your reaction Now I’m Here at Wembly.. Serious rock and roll, all the way. And now this really deep complex song. Through Love of My Life in there. Really scaled boundaries beautifully. Just brilliant.💋

[@valerielansford565]

I think this song was quite prophetic (no pun intended!!😃) . Think of our current situation and the fact that close human contact is currently being frowned upon. The 2 lines that stand out most clearly to me are "These kings of beasts now counting their days" , "And death all around will be your Dow'ry". I know that Brian spent some time in Arizona being treated for severe depression. I have often wondered if the tribal/spiritual influences of the area had any impact on his writing of this song. I'm not certain at what point in time he was in Arizona (before or after this was written).

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

That is a very interesting comment, thank you! and an interesting point you have made. First I never knew he was in Arizona, and now I am curious if those tribal/spiritual influences are valid in this song. Hmmm (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ)©️

[@marggie4129]

He was in Arizona after Freddie and his father died.,so that had nothi ng to do with this song

[@charmainesmith7473]

It was a dream he had years before joining queen

[@Sassypaws4927]

Queen was heavily into exploring overdubbing during the production of the album, A Night at the Opera. There was so much overdubbing on some of their recordings, that the oxide tape was actually clear. Of course today everything is digital but back then it was a risk because the tape would become fragile and they could lose everything if it crumbled. (FYI those tapes still exist. They have been "baked' which is when magnetic tapes are literally baked at a low temperature for 6 -8 hours which removes moisture to maintain them). For example, most people believe that the 1st two verses of Bohemian Rhapsody are a collaboration of Freddie, Roger, and Brian harmonizing together but that is incorrect. Those 2 verses are being sung only by Freddie. Freddie laid down 5 separate tracks, harmonizing with himself and then use overdubbing to blend the five tracks to produce the sound for the following verses: "Is this the real life, is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide no escape from reality Open your eyes look up to the skies and see I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy Because I'm easy come, easy go A little high, little low Anyway the wind blows Doesn't really matter to me, to me"

[@celticpoet21]

Awesome! Totally another gem of their genius! There so many underrated songs, its just tragic! In this song, there are also veiled references to Noah's Ark, such as the subject of storms, "two by two my human zoo", "running for to come out of the rain", "return like the white dove." By the way, aside from the guitar, they also played a toy Japanese koto (another string instrument) in the intro and finale. Queen was greatly influenced by Japan during their first tour there in 1974.

I would like to see your reaction to ''Spread your wings'' - written by John Deacon (1977), beautiful song, a fan favorite song that was never a hit. The video was filmed in Roger’s backyard garden in the freezing cold. The ground was covered in snow and ice, and the band was noticeably uncomfortable. During the shoot, the ice and snow on the ground complicated matter. Freddie and Roger both have their gloves on while Brian and John's fingers are falling off. :). John sneeze and he touches his nose to wipe off the drop Roger said that Freddie was drunk while filming this. You can see that he barely could stand. At some point Freddie almost fell down in the snow (you can see it in the alternative takes). He was celebrating buying his first car, a Rolls, and continued to drink during shooting. (check this out: ( ''Queen - Spread Your Wings (Remastered Audio 2011)''.

This song has a transition to "Love of My Life". Another great transition (and song)

[@ben1ben]

ya man, Amazing Song and Great Reaction. The most things and facts were already said so I'll just say one thing where I don't know if somebody told you yet. The ending of the Song was so subtle and nice because it would Transition to the next song in the album which was a big song Love of My Life. If you hear Love of my Life someday, you will definitely notice that Guitar from this song again :D. Queen always played with the panning thing but also with Transition to songs. They were amazing at both of these things. Look I don't know your plans or if you want to do this but I would be really happy, i think even most of your viewers would be happy. If you want to hear how amazing they were at transition to songs react to *_Queen - Ogre Battle / The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke / Nevermore (2011 Remaster + Lyrics)._* Yes that is a Video where the guy combined 3 Songs of Queen that were connected just like in the original Queen II album. The Official Queen channel failed to put in transitions so that video that I requested is one way where you'll notice their transitions. The Video also has the lyrics to the songs in it so you'll also have the lyrics in the video too then. The thing is I don't know if you would want to do this because you'll instantly react to 3 Songs and have to react them in one go but still giving your opinion separately if you understand. (the 3 songs combined are just 8 minutes JUST LIKE the Prophet Song where it is only 1 song 😂) You also can't pause between the switch to the next song because you watch that for the amazingness and the transitions so it would be weird pausing right in the transition😂. You'll notice by the video when the next song is showing up, but I'm sure you notice yourself when the one song ended and the other starts. But it isn't really hard to react to those 3 in one go and giving the opinion separate on each song. But as I said I don't know if you want to do it. IF Yes, then I give you some useful facts you have to know for each song before listening. Ogre Battle is just an *amazing* Rock Song and the rest you'll notice yourself, but The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke is one where I have to explain some stuff. The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke is a painting in a Museum in England which Freddie really loved, Freddie then has written a song with the same name and wow who would've thought, it is a Song explaining the Painting and whats on it 😂. Luckily the Guy who put together the transition Video also put the Painting in the Video so you can see what Freddie is referring to (unlike the official queen channel they also don't have that in it.) So it would be just perfect reacting to the Video with instantly the 3 songs. The song also has many amazing high notes by Freddie and Roger. Freddie sings the song in a higher way than he usually does which sounds great as always. The last song Nevermore is also just amazing and also instrumentally connected with The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke. Would be very cool if you react to the Video with those 3 songs in one ( the title of the video is *_Queen - Ogre Battle / The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke / Nevermore (2011 Remaster + Lyrics)._* )

@@HAP3SPEAKZ sure thing; Queen is a never ending journey - thank you for your reply - just for your info '39' is the 5th song on the Night at the Opera Queen album, following "I'm in Love with My Car and' the John Deacon written Your My Best Friend', then comes '39 - so within the first 5 songs you have songs written by all 4 members of Queen.. :) so talented - All members have worked towards degrees - John electronics, (high honors -made the 'Deacky' amp for Brian - I think he still uses it for some things... Roger - dentistry then Biology, Brian Physics then Astrophysics and Freddie in graphic design &Illustration and I believe left just before finishing a fashion degree. - I like the things you pick up on while listening to the music. :)

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Thanks for the breakdown!!! And sincerity toward the details in your comment. I did read that up previously in the comments too. I look forward to when the time arrives. (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

[@JohnHazelwood58]

liked it :-) ever heard the late 80s track "was it all worth it?" different sound, but lyrics are good as usual ^^+gg

[@juttapopp1869]

Have you done "March of the Black Queen ", yet? BoRhap's BIG sister.

[@ian00001]

Freddie does with his voice What Brian did with the guitar on Brighton Rock - using the echoes to build harmonies and play around with timing. There's a link below to adocumentary on the making of A Night At The Opera which will show you how far ahead of their time Queen were. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYa7YaWOfbd8fqc

[@manueldimas4073]

Great good reaction.. good video. I couldnt do it like you. Good job.. To be honest.I dont like watching this kind of videos because we never know if their reaction is a true feeling or it is just a way to gain followers. It is just my humble opinion. It is a beautiful song and I think there is any reaction that can describe how wonder this song is

[@timnotbrianmay]

You SHOULD HAVE seen this live!

[@helenclarke4735]

The part in the middle is all Freddie. The technology to produce that kind of rounding by one person wasn't available yet and one of the producers said Freddie had tape spread all over the studio to do it.

[@bjwaugh4294]

Good reaction. "News of the World" released 1977. U have to remember everyone in universities took chemistry or knew a friend that did so everyone explored mind expanding drugs. Thx to Dr. Leary the rest is history.

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Mind expanding drugs. Lol. LOVE IT. thank you for your comment too. Did some of Dr Leary's teachings have a "significant influence" on Queen at this stage? (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

[@bjwaugh4294]

Dr. Leary influenced everything in that era. He was trying to find a cure 4 alcoholism n migraines. What we got was LSD. (lol). Strange times n Queen was there always making u feel u weren't alone. Sorry, hard to explain. Pls react "My Melancholy Blues". Old rock band "Thin Lizzy" think u will appreciate n enjoy. Biggest hit in US "The Boys Are Back in Town". Enjoy. Thx 4 ur really fun reactions.😁

[@Scorhos]

I suppose that Freddie had schedule problems with the Record of this album. Figaros and galileos to Bohemian rhapsody by day and now i know to prophets song by night..

[@kevinapplegate2759]

Brian played the harpischord on this song, start and finish !

[@lindastodola691]

Gosh it sounds like Freddie just overdubbed himself over and over! Who else would be so theatrical!!??😛🤯

[@DukeEnlil]

Epic song! Please react to Queen - Great King Rat

[@Brmcfnm]

Queen in early 5 albums didn't use syntsynthesizers even this was specific declaration on thair record s

[@kathramsay1569]

This is the story of Noah and the biblical flood.

[@dana_brooke_27]

The song speaks of the end of the earth with indirect mention of Noah's Arc. It's kind of self explatory. It sounds different cuz it's recorded in stereo not mono or digital. And another thing this song falls into the category of Progressive Rock...which is known for alot of changes and instrumentals ie Black Queen..Bohemian Rhapsody. & Innuendo

[@anne-mariesindruprix4792]

what happens in the middle is Freddy harmonizing with himself - and special technics with delay?? I believe that you have the book All the songs - the story behind every track. You can read all about it - it is highly technical. It's been called Brian's "Bohemian Rhapsody" and was also in talks as the single.Read about it - thanks for your reaction.

[@The1queencollector]

Reminds me of the biblical story of Moses, what a brain to come up with this.

[@delainepep22]

Thats all of Freddie

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Thank you my dear. (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

BTW way Hap the real pronunciation of my name is how usually Japanese names are pronounced 😂 but don’t worry, it doesn’t matter I’m not Japanese anyways 😅 I used that name because I used to be addicted to animes when I made this account years back. I would just like to know if you are interested reacting to cover songs so that I could recommend something different for you to react. If not, then I’ll just request for another Queen song which is “I Want to Break Free” the official music video. It has been a fun journey since I subscribed to your channel. Keep it up.👍🏻

[@nyima04011]

This is one Queen song that doesn't do a thing for me. It's like a lot of late 60's - 70's rock in trying to tell a long story (listening now, I hear how typical of the era it actually is) - I guess I get impatient, LOL!!! Most of us were stoned at the time so it was easier to be 'laid back'. Thanks ! BEST #queenreaction!

[@kathramsay1569]

I wouldn’t use the word magical, I would say spiritual. ❤️❤️

[@kingkazoo2349]

Queen make this song really to a japanese song but i love your thoughts too like western song

[@plutao_pt]

May was on acid or something similar to write something like this masterpiece

[@helenclarke4735]

This song is about the story of the great Flood, and the seer was the prophet Noah. It also speaks of Noahs Ark.

[@simonbiggs9102]

I do believe this is 💯 times better than bo rhap

[@heatherqualy9143]

Gonna get ripped apart for this, but...I always thought this is a fantastic 4 minute song...that, unfortunately has 4 minutes of weird obnoxiousness shoved in the middle. I HATE the middle echoing, headache-inducing repetition (Not a fan of the strange lyrics, either, but lyrics never make or break a song for me.). Ugh. Not even kidding, I have a mild headache right now while I am listening to this with you, and I need to stop typing and skip ahead to the 5:50 mark of the song. This is...oi. Can’t do it tonight. 😜

[@montrelouisebohon-harris7023]

All Queen songs change throughout so just because it starts out sounding like one thing doesn't mean that it's going to end up sounding like that. Haahaa! It's either Madness or genius but it's Queen music. OF All the rock stars in the world it's only John Deacon that had a Volvo!! 😂😂😂 Not a sportscar.

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Yep just like Bohemian Rhapsody. Volvo really? Lol (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ)👑

[@patriciaweatherspoon1098]

White man is another song you should listen two.

[@The1queencollector]

Unfortunately Simon Cowell says no to bands having a say in thier/his music, this is why we get the crap we get today. Started with Stock, Aiken and Waterman.

You got it Nick. You must have clicked the link in the description. 👍🏽 (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ)©️

[@Scorhos]

This song should be the b side of Bohemian rhapsody,not im in love for my car,that is a futile song.Could the band had less fights with other single set-up.

[@leodurkin8539]

Babylon zoo spaceman

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

That's right

[@allensaunders449]

No good live versions unfortunately studio only

[@yasmincastro892]

The first second you already decided that was a western kind song 🤨. Far from it

[@delainepep22]

The live version is 20 times better

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

I'm sure it is 🙂 - I'll be doing a live one soon though. 👑 (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ)©️
