I cry when I hear this song. Freddie knew he was sick. How hard it must have been to sing. His eyes looked sad on the close-up. But Freddie performed. Best singer/performer of all time for me. I so wish I was at an age I could have seen him live.

Only Queen could take such an epic song, perform it live and still take you to that special place. Kudos to Trip Kalif their sound engineer. Queen always made sure they had the best crews. 1986 was the first time they ever made any money on a tour probably because it was all stadiums

Thank you!!!! Brian wrote this song for the movie Highlander. Queen did several songs for the first Highlander movie in the 80’s. Brian said he got the idea from the main character who was immortal and fell in love and had to watch his love grow old and die. It’s very powerful and Freddie’s vocals were nothing short of amazing. BTW, Freddie can sing opera!! He was the first ever rock singer to do a collaboration with an Opera singer. They did an album together during the last couple years of his life. Thank you again for reacting to this for me.

Great song & great vocals. The whole Budapest concert is epic. The opera thing you are talking about is the album Barcelona he made with a great opera singer called Montserrat Caballe. Freddie composed all songs in the album. Unique for a rock star & composer. No other rock star has been able to equal this. I get chills & tears whenever I hear this album. It shows us just how great a musician Freddie was. Loved your reaction as always.

He has wonderful stories about Freddie and Montserrat Caballe meeting, working together and his love of Freddie shows. Love Queen but am so in love with Freddie it's bordering on obsession . . . help!!! 💜👑

[@headrushindi]

I cannot think of a more perfect marriage of singers, musicians and songwriters as was QUEEN. The Stunning vocal abilities, showmanship and charisma of Freddie, with the Unique styling of Brian May, combining Rock, classical , and jazz techniques into his own one of a kind un-reproduce able sound, and then squeezing every bit of emotion from every note he plays. Rodger Taylor's command performance on all percussion. And John Deacons glass like style on bass , very much complimenting the violin like riffs from Brian. These four were pure Genius on all levels , and did not just write songs..they composed masterpieces. Watch closely all you young musicians out there. If you want to be a music legend and not just another over auto-tuned mega quantize'd one night wonder...these are the people you need to emulate !!

[@neilburns8869]

Brian May doubles as keyboardist for this song. But Freddie's voice is something else.

[@lollinelson5549]

Freddie didn't work with opera diva, Montserrat, until after 1986. Montserrat was Freddie's favorite opera singer, and was dying to meet her. They eventually met in Barcelona, and fell in love with each other. They sang songs around the piano until 6am. It was she who suggested they do an album together. Their first track is Barcelona, written all about their 1st meeting. As he was composing the songs, Freddie sang Montserrat's parts for her on tape, and sent them to her for her approval. When you get to it, it is shockingly amazing!

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Amazing break down and background information. How do you know all that? So... this is him singing before he worked with her...? Loved this performance and I am in shock. (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

[@lollinelson5549]

@@HAP3SPEAKZ Lynn is correct. This is before any of Freddie's learning of opera singing techniques. "Exercises In Free Love" was released. Since Freddie and Montserrat were living in different countries and each had touring schedules, Freddie would sing Montserrat's part, to see what she wanted. He was new to writing opera and had for some of the record a co-writer. You also have to remember just 5 short years after this tour, Freddie died. But he managed to cram so much music (including opera) into those 5 years. His work was truly heroic. And thank you for your attention to detail about the instruments used and the music. This is how we first learned of Queen. Sitting on our beds listening over and over again to the music of their albums.

[@jonesellison6637]

"Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything." - Plato To me, Queen are the embodiment of Plato's quote. Listening to their music, and in particular, Freddie's vocals, resonates with my soul's rhythm. And whenever I hear Freddie sing Who Wants To Live Forever live, with those beautiful booming powerful vocals of his, I always...ALWAYS...question, "How can he really be gone?" It brings me up short every time. I KNOW that he is no longer with us, but this song in particular brings up such a profusion of emotion; sadness that we lost such a sublime talent and free-spirit, joy that he was here at all and I had the privilege of seeing him on stage in person (Melbourne 1985), and regret that at the aforementioned concert that I didn't fully understand or embrace the talent before me. To use another quote, "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." - Theodor Seuss Geisel. Thank you, Hap, for the video reaction and for sharing your emotions and sentiments. It's always a pleasure to share in this music journey with you. Stay safe and well.

[@markpalmer7215]

It’s worth pointing out that this song is from the soundtrack to the film Highlander, about an immortal warrior who battle to the last hence other “there can be only one” comment. In it he meets and falls in love with a girl, who of course grows old & dies but he’s as young as ever & he is left devastated....hence the line “who wants to live forever” as well as other lyrics in context, the studio is recorded with an orchestra. Freddie sang with opera singer Montserrat caballe in 1988 on the album ‘barcelona’

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Ah great break down. Oddly I felt Freddie was talking about himself too. What great showmanship on the stage. That's what caught me off... whilst I was listening to it. (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

[@trego5509]

​@@HAP3SPEAKZ I agree, at least the emotion inwhich he sings it with. Many comment on his diagnosis being 1987, however, it was a diagnosis of full blown AIDS not just HIV. Those that read up on the typical process timeline, transition and early symptom, know he did know in 1986, just no confirmation. In that time many that were in the high risk group avoided testing, fear and devastation were high; Feeling ignorance would buy them some time before facing the reality. True for FM too. Mary Austin clearly confirmed that after several attempts the doctor called her to get him to call him back re the tests results.

Gaaaawwwwwddddd.... I was spellbound. In the four months since I've jumped into the world of Queen on line, I hadn't seen any live footage from Budapest until you posted it on this channel. Great choice. Why haven't the links popped up for me? Must find! These four musicians created such magic. Take any one of them out of the equation and we would have still had something good, but they were just phenomenal together. One thing about Freddie's live performances that has always struck me, and you mentioned it here, are the lines he creates with his body as he's singing (too many examples to cite). Dancers are always striving to create beautiful and "perfect" lines when they move. Art in every form seems to pour out of him as natural as breathing.

This DVD is wonderful, too. It’s called Hungarian Rhapsody. It was behind the old Iron Curtain, and people hitch-hiked from other countries to attend. On the DVD, Freddie shops, Brian goes up in a hot air balloon, Roger goes go-kart racing (Check out him singing “I’m in love with my car”) and John quietly walks along the waterfront and engages a little girl from England in conversation while her dad looks on. So typical of their personalities. This song is from the soundtrack of the original Highlander movie. The title character is immortal and falls in love. He has to watch her age and die. John wrote a beautiful track for it, too, called Just One Year of Love. The lyric video is my favorite because it highlights Freddie’s unbelievable vocals and word emphasis. Cheers!

[@micheleshelley6156]

Freddie'd had no formal training(well, he'd had piano training in school) at this point. He'd learned how to use his voice differently live by simple trial and error. So many Queen songs were written for Freddie, and, by Freddie, for his high tenor range. He could easily sing in that range in the studio, beautifully, but just could not manage it live as he aged(he was a heavy smoker). Most folks don't realize that he was a baritone or spinto tenor, but you can hear it in the harmonies on the studio recordings. Bo Rhap, for example. Listen carefully to the opera section. Those low notes are Freddie.

[@ZENOBlAmusic]

Great reaction! I haven't realized you haven't done Who Wants To Live Forever. This is a really amazing song! And you noticed Brian on the keyboards! In the original studio version Brian sings some parts of the song, such as the opening. But I must admit that I think it is much better when Freddie just sings the whole song because his voice is far more powerful then Brian's voice, but the original studio version is beautiful as well, the song has a whole orchestra and a choir as well. For the live version they obviously didn't have a whole choir or an orchestra, so it is slightly different. But you are right one thing about the live version specifically is that Freddie sang this in a very operatic way, he sang with a lot of heavy chest voice resonance, he really used the power in his voice live, with no distortion. Freddie did love opera, but he only met Monserrat Caballe (Spanish Soprano diva) in 1987, they clicked so well that they decided to do an album together. It was the first classical crossover album between someone from the opera world and someone from pop/ rock world, the whole album is amazing and a masterpiece. The title track of the album, Barcelona, does actually have somewhat of a similar feeling to Who Wants To Live Forever, and the song was used for the 1992 Olympic games, you really have to see kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5etqYWFqJyqiqM

Such an amazing song, isn't it? For the next video I highly recommend one of the best and most powerful Queen song called The Show Must Go On. It's written by all four members and released in 1991 a few months before Freddie's death. It has a lot to say, it's also very emotinal. I hope you'll enjoy it!

Thanks Baricz and thanks for dropping in the comment. I got your suggestion archived for sure. 👑 (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

[@anamarquez4939]

From the Miracle album on, all the songs were credited as Queen whoever were the authors. To be totally fair The show must go on was written by Brian.

@@anamarquez4939 He gives the wrong impression in later interviews about various things He has said in many interviews as well on itv uk tv that they as in he and Freddie hammered out the lyrics together They spent the afternoon together worked out the theme and lyrics and implied they had started mapping the song Brian said Freddie wasn't feeling eell but thry had solidified the first verse and had enough material to finish the last two verses He later added wings if a butterfly Composition Brian had done this first Using Roger and Johns chord sequence Also sequence inspured by pachelbels canon which seems more like Freddie but its not stated whose idea it was Richard their producer suggested a key shift in the second verse

I WANTed to tell you about Freddies singing style. He went to college off the arts . He wanted to do graphic design,.but decided he wanted to learn to sing. So he switched majors. He already k ew how to play piano,, he stared to play at 8 yrs old . This was obviously in the UK. This is another song BRIAN May Wrote!!!! Beautiful!!

[@karenj3611]

Would love to see your reaction to full live concert at Wembley 1986

[@hippiejane2683]

Yet another Brian May masterpiece. ❤️❤️❤️ If you haven’t seen the movie Highlander you should.

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Highlander is now on my movie list. Somebody else also mentioned that in the comments. I loved the way Freddie just moved her with his vocal range. Incredible. 👏👏 (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

[@leonarae8496]

Can I suggest Freddie singing Exercises in Free Love? Don’t judge the song by its title. I’m not going to give you any clues what it is about, because I want to see your reaction when you hear it, but I think you will be surprised.

[@adinafarkas769]

Highlander with my favorite actor Christopher Lambert.

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Hey Adina! Hope you enjoyed the reaction. 👍🏽💯 It's a great song for a great day. Geez. Another song in the top 5. (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

[@adinafarkas769]

Did I enjoy?! I LOOOVED it! I would like to live forever so I could watch your reactions over and over again! 😜😙

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

How can I reply? Ok so my response to your comment is my facial expression at the end of this video. 😂😂😂🤯🤯👍🏽👍🏽🙈🙉🙊 since it can't by typed. 🙏🏽 (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

[@adinafarkas769]

Let’s see that expression...! it will be clear to me in a moment 😂🙃

[@adinafarkas769]

Is that the “I think I’m done” or the “peace” expression? 😂

While Queen did choreograph the movements for their videos, unlike many other past and current concert performers, Freddie and the rest of Queen did not choreograph their live performances. Their bodies moved, especially Freddie's, according to what the music was making them feel at any particular moment. That's why no two performances were ever exactly the same by any of the members of Queen. Thus, you will see Freddie bending, running, jumping, doing push-ups, getting in Roger's face, bumping the beat with Brian, knocking over speakers, cussing out the audience, losing his temper, dancing, and everything else you can imagine with his only thoughts being on the music and giving a good performance. I see concerts today and the singers just STAND there. How boring is that? Like Freddie and Brian both said, they never wanted their live performances to be like cardboard cut-outs of their studio versions. I suggest that you, for the time being, stick with 70's to mid-80's Queen and wait for a while until you have a better grasp of their music and personalities before delving into the sad but still beautiful later heartbreaking times.

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Jayne you are absolutely right!!!! I prefer exploring content from that era. And your comment has a lot depth and insight. I agree with that you said about today's performers. When I do a reaction I go into blind... and SOMETIMES afterwards I ask myself... did I really do that, did I really say that, BUT it was the music that did to me. So glad people like yourself enjoy it to. 🎶🥁 (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ)©️

You have to watch Queen - Under pressure (Live at Wembley) and Queen - No One But You (Only The Good Die Young)

I like the first night at Wembley

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Yes there`s seems to be a split camp about this. (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

[@MaiteSole]

@@HAP3SPEAKZLas dos noches fueron increíbles, pero lo que las distingue es que Freddie, la segunda noche, además de tener una voz ligeramente cansada de la primera noche, tenía un resfriado de mil demonios, como es lógico, esto afectó bastante su voz, así que tuvo que bajar un poco el tono en todas sus canciones, incluso Roger cuando vio que Freddie no venía lo ayudó. Por cierto, perdona mi inglés, tengo el traductor disponible.

[@jeanninedoyle9523]

>100,000 people hitch hiked from all over Eastern Europe to see this Concert.

[@Cricket3903]

This is heartbreaking for me. He would have known he had aids at the time. They all did. What courage, right? Dedication to art and what they all loved. Their disciplines of engineers, dentistry and Freddie a music degree...all contributed to how they were genius in their composing and performing. The live aid 1986 was one of their favorite concerts. Also, John on the bass. He holds so many of the songs together. And defines others. Another one bites the dust, for example. Under pressure. Don’t stop me now. I’m sure you know others. I just don’t hear much about him in reactions. No criticism. Just observation. Musician myself. Classical. Didn’t know who was behind those songs I remember. And at 68 years old, I’m so glad to have the time to appreciate them. You’re the only reaction person I listen to now that I found you. So here’s my pick for a listen. Freddie asked an opera singer to do a song with him. They jammed all night the first time they met. She loved his voice so much, they did an album. It’s crazy great. Their song Barcelona is mind blowing.

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

I was thinking about that, while I was listening to it. Thanks for subscribing to my channel or our channel. Most of the videos here are all requests at the moment. I have learnt through my Queen journey that each member carried their own and all 4 were equally deserving of the same respect. However, Freddie will have a special place in my heart. I will look into Barcelona, and some of the others have also suggested to me. Claudia, this channel is quite diverse so please do not be surprised if you see something non Queen related appear on my channel. Thanks again. :) blessings. (Copyrighted HAP3SPEAKZ) ©️

This is a song, that was written by Brian May in 20 minutes in the back seat of a car... Queen wasn't even supposed to do the soundtrack to Highlander at all, it was first offered to the band called Marillion who turned it down because they were on a tour at the time.

[@MaiteSole]

Bueno, solo me queda darte las gracias por seguir sin enterarme de nada.
