The main man, THE best frontman of any band, ever.

[@aerynoftalyn1307]

Freddie was in top form here. This was an outstanding performance, his voice was great.

[@AliT0555]

I really love this version of Who Wants to Live Forever. Freddie sings it so passionately!

[@mmaloneym]

One of my favorites live. Freddie was truly from his own planet. There will never be another

[@dixie3086]

The best performance of this song IMO.

[@alainemancini3366]

Oh my heart. Missing dear Freddie❤...........as though it were a Thousand years.

[@Matt-lg1te]

What a great reaction to this great performance, I think every band member put their all into this. I have watched it so many times a it still gives me goosebumps and I am 68 years and a fan of Queen since 1974..Thanks for the reaction mate

[@sherryheim5504]

I love this Brian May song. Freddie is so vocally emotive it is impossible not to cling on every word.

[@markpalmer7215]

Budapest was a better concert than Wembley IMO, A kind of magic from Budapest was the best live version of that song too

[@nickwall2497]

The Budapest set is the same set bar 1 little interlude the Wembley set...... This hits diffrent as it was the first rock concert behind the Iron Curtain in Eastern Europe back then

[@mariannemaloneywitherspoon6335]

Rory, thanks so much for covering this. This was Brian’s song used in the movie ‘Highlander’. It just hits too close to home regarding Freddie’s health. But you’re right, this song transcends everything and does ‘bring it (movie, Freddie’s situation) to life’. 9:07

[@kuntumlaleanqueezer]

❤❤❤❤

[@jodawson5268]

The Wembley concert i loved although they were at the end of an exaustive tour 26 dates i think, so Freddies voice was a little tired and strained but he still does a great performance of this song and I loved the banter with the audience. Youre right, he said to a Bulgarian Journalist when asked if he would come back again, he said "if im still alive, i will be back" a throw away remark to some, but he knew alright.

[@kristiedaniels9325]

So beautiful Freddie’s vocals are so beautiful ❤and I agree watching it live brings on a whole new meaning to the song

[@anniegetchergun]

Definitely THE best live version of this song. Awesome!!

[@kendallneason3645]

Watching Freddie sing it was like he was pulling energy from above. Just mind blowing 🤯. The four of them were so talented they could become almost otherworldly. ❤

[@juliannetomlinson]

Freddie was really on fire. ❤

[@dianecourtney2724]

Well I’m dead now … have only watched this a thousand times but I never am bored with it 😂😊 Love this song and Budapest version. You’re right Freddie has a slight sad wistfulness in his eyes. A perfect song for Freddie … not only because of his voice but also because of his demeanor. Many great voices could have done this song but Freddie was unique… sweetness and a kind of childlike quality in his voice and expression that breaks your heart and that’s the quality this song needed. It wasn’t an act. It was Freddie.

[@sophiebernard1983]

hi Rory, the concert you have to do (or finish) is Montreal 1981 : Freddie is at his prime !

[@marvalstith2749]

Wasn't it an interview in Budapest where he said something like If I'm alive I will be back ..? I think by that time Freddie felt it would be a miracle for what was happening to his body to be turned back/overcome. Such thinking powered his creativity and determination to give all he could while he could. What a guy!

[@TammyDenneym]

I think he said that in Barcelona in 1987, but I could be wrong, but I think it was it in Barcelona that he said that.

[@terridostal1348]

Just Beautiful

[@bjw0515]

I think Budapest is the best live performance of this, IMO. Thank you for your reactions Rory!

[@igortokarski9517]

My favourite is still the Wembley one, from 11-07-1986

[@lyna4873]

Budapest was from the same tour as the Wembley 1986 shows with essentially the same set list. However Freddie did not have a cold here so his voice was in better form for this show. This entire concert was really great performed before 80,000 fans in what was then a communist country behind the Iron Curtain.

[@bbbfst]

As others noted, this concert is part of the Magic tour and is basically the same set as Wembley, but really fun bit here is Freddie learning a Hungarian folksong to sing here -- has part of it written on his hand. Some footage of him learning it and practicing it with Brian. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIfWmn99i9N-p7M. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXLGnZqFg5mWfcU

[@joyceharkin3641]

That was lovely - thank you for posting the links!

[@harrymitchell3609]

You really really should check out funkadelic red hot mama live in Houston 1977 and maggot brain funkadelic in Houston live in 1978 I promise that you really won't be disappointed.

[@monicaandmindy]

Legends ❤

[@labird1994]

It's awesome to see Freddie on the stage, his charisma and his shows were outstanding. A true professional talented artist who gave it all for his public, there were few artists like him which really connected with their public. I don't know if you reacted to " Love of my life" he wrote this song for his ex partner and after his best friend Mary Austin. Freddie Forever. Thanks Rory, Your Queen's reactions are so epic and the true spirit of this channel👍👏🏻👌

[@sheilapurcell515]

I love this concert,they were so determined that it was going to be beyond perfect mainly because it was the first rock concert behind the iron concert. I will request this when I rejoin as a patron next week now my money crisis has passed. He hadn't been diagnosed yet but he had by this stage knew he couldn't continue to tour after they finished the magic tour and roger stated on camera theat he was sure Freddie knew he wasn't well For your information there is a live audio version of Life is real a song for Lennon, it's great. If you can't find it let me know and I will search x

[@deboraclark5791]

This is really great. Great reaction

[@TammyDenneym]

Bri wrote this song for the movie soundtrack Hilander. And all the boys wrote songs for the soundtrack as well. I’ve heard it a thousand times and still get goosebumps 😢 Your incredible. Thank you❤ Oh yes please !do the whole Budapest concert. This was in 1986 Freddie found out his Prognosis 1987, but he knew something was wrong. Yes we did Milton Keynes. My favorite concert.

[@marciebulsaraorcutt]

HEY RORY… My FAVORITE performance of this song is a little-seen Hidden Gem, from: FRIDAY, JULY 11, 1986 At Wembley Stadium This Budapest performance is letter-perfect and Freddie’s vibrato is BEAUTIFUL. The Friday Wembley performance is STRONG, RAW EMOTION; Freddie’s vocals will make your hair stand on end and then you’ll CRY. (Especially if you see the video that’s 5+ minutes long; it includes the “we’re never breaking up” speech!) (Most folks who watch a Wembley performance, see the one from Saturday, July 12… when Fred was tired, catching a cold, so a lot of voice cracks… I’ve even read that Fred was so displeased with the Saturday performance, it was one of the factors in Freddie’s decision to stop live touring.)

[@Baldrick_dogsbody]

Who you ?

[@1031irishqueen]

Hey Rory, long time...how's things?

[@sandrahuwae5429]

Have you done Montreal 1981?

[@jodawson5268]

Sorry that should have said Hungarian, not Bulgarian.

[@sheilapurcell515]

Should be curtain not concert🤔
