This song paints such a bittersweet picture of immortality. An eternity of loneliness with only brief, fleeting moments of happiness.

I enjoyed Seal's rendition of "Who Wants to Live Forever." He really applied his own style to this awesome song and gave it justice. Nice tribute, Seal.

There's no time for us There's no place for us What is this thing that builds our dreams, yet slips away from us? Who wants to live forever? Who wants to live forever? Oh ooo oh. There's no chance for us It's all decided for us This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us Who wants to live forever? Who wants to live forever? Oh ooo oh. Who dares to love forever? Oh oo woh, when love must die... But touch my tears...with your lips Touch my world...with your fingertips. And we can have forever And we can love forever Forever is our today Who wants to live forever? If we can't love forever Forever is our today Who lives forever anyway? Songwriters: May, Brian Harold

Cuando veo este tributo solo se que Freddy sera uno de los artistas que mas extrañaremos, su musica atemporal solo puede ser eterna y el vivira por siempre a traves de ella. Tambien un aplauso al que eligio quien deberia cantar cual cancion, Seal no pudo haber estado mejor, ame a David Bowie y Annie Lennox con Under pressure y me emocione con George Michael en Somebody to love... uno de los mejores tributos que se ha hecho donde se veia el sincero cariño y repeto de los musicos por el hombre que fueron ese dia a homenajear. ¡Siempre me emocionare, no importa cuantas veces lo vea!

This is another example of the fact that covering Freddie Mercury isn't just about your voice; it's also about being able to perform the song and really sell it and put emotion into it the way that Freddie always did. (also I think early 90s Seal looked like Hermes from Futurama, but that's another thing)

He's always been very much a guy who shows his expressions & emotions, he does more than usual here though - you're right, it's the most emotional I've seen him. Seal does a brilliant job. My only disappointment is that Brian didn't sing the lead & backing vocals where he does normally, and that the ending really should have stayed the original ending. Brian's voice is haunting in this with Freddie, he wrote the song for Highlander but he also penned it from some personal battles he was facing at the time. I did wonder if that is WHY he didn't add his vocals. Brian has always been stoic, he rarely lets emotion show. But here he does let that facade slip - about 3.22. It's pretty clear he did it without thinking & it just happened to be caught on camera as it was on him at the time, he very clearly looks up to the sky. No idea if he's religious or atheist but even as an atheist (oddly I WAS raised by a Priest lol. One that supported same sex marriage in the 80's, I was a little kid & it was via him I first heard Queen) it's pretty clear he's looking up & thinking of Freddie watching, it's a rare time I've seen Brian show that emotion, it's obvious.

Amazing!, Despite Freddies voice has no match, SEAL is the only one who could manage to sing this song with the same heart, and the same spirit. That can only be done by someone who has heard Freddie de great and really listened.
seal and freddy probably are the only 2 who can pull off this song, both hav such an effortless natural talent which is needed to show off a song of this type. in my opinion the greatest voice of the 80's in freddy and the 90's in seal
