Judy here. I'm 72 but never heard of Queen or Freddie Mercury until about 2 years ago. Fact is I didn't listen to music at all. Something came up on my (rather weird) news feed that mentioned Freddie Mercury. I did a search for his name and the first thing I watched was Made In Heaven, which was originally not Queen but Freddie alone. (After Freddie's death Queen took his vocals and made a Queen song out of it for the album Made In Heaven). What I saw was a rather wild video of Freddie standing on top of a huge sphere with people writhing below. Lol I was empressed by Freddie's voice and the energy he put into it. Since then I've been a fan. I still don't listen to music...except for Queen, and Freddie Mercury. I've watched multiple documentaries, and hundreds of reactions, live concerts, etc. I loved your reaction. So nice to get to know you. I don't have a favorite Queen song, I love almost every one I've heard. Keep listening to Queen and the members of the band in their solo work. You won't be disappointed. They are so talented and their music so diverse. Freddie always makes me smile, he could get more out of one word than anyone could.

[@jennhurl]

Hi Judy! I'm Jen (age 50). I really enjoyed reading this! I'm on the opposite end - I have lived and breathed music my entire life from the 50's up. I am not surprised one bit that out of all the artists, Freddie is one you connected with. He was a very special man. We were so lucky to have him. ❤✌🎵

[@unravelingfast2198]

@@jennhurl Yes, I definitely connected with Freddie. As I said I've watched a lot of Freddie and I admire him as a person. I've never seen or heard him say anything that disgusted me. He was ornery sometimes, and as he sings, he has made a few mistakes, but he was real. He faced a lot in his short life, but faced it with zest for living. I've learned a lot from him.

[@lillylee7658]

Freddie Mercury: lead vocals, piano and occasionally, guitar. Degree in graphic art Dr. Brian May: lead guitar, keyboards, backing vocals. PHD in Astrophysics and has worked with NASA Roger Taylor: drums, backing vocals. Degree in Biology John (Deacy) Deacon: bass guitar. Degree in Electrical Engineering. Each band member has written songs that became hits. 4 very intelligent and extremely talented guys, who together create magic. Roger and Brian as well as Freddie, all put out solo albums. John didn’t sing much, he was the quiet member of the group but the owner of some of the most epic bass riffs you’ve ever heard. Another One Bites the Dust (you’re sure to know that one) and Under Pressure are the biggest hits but Dragon Attack is my favourite. And if you want to see Roger singing at the same time he’s belting it out on the drums, check out the medley of Killer Queen/I’m in Love with my car at this same Montreal concert.

[@Anisabell2]

Completely agree with Debra, our Queen of Queenies 🌸🌸🌸 Freddie is always on fire...hot baby, hot 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@leonarae8496]

Yes that hot looking gentleman on the piano is the legendary Freddie Mercury. Bo Rhap came in 1975, off their 4th studio album, but it is the song that propelled them to stratospheric super stardom. Long haired Freddie was early 70’s, late 70’s he had it cut a bit shorter and during the 80’s very short with moustache. I love all his looks. I’m a new subscriber after watching your Bo Rhap reaction just now. I like that you’re not hyped up and over reacting like some seem to think they need to do. It must be impossible for them to truly appreciate the music they are listening to when they’re yelling over the top of it the whole way through. So you are refreshing for me and I hope you continue on your Queen journey, it will take you on a very diverse and interesting trip. Can I suggest some of their very best live performances, because they were always better live...White Queen live at The Odeon Hammersmith 1975, Stone Cold Crazy and In The Lap of the Gods live at The Rainbow 1974, Save Me and Bohemian Rhapsody at this same Montreal concert, Action This Day and Fat Bottomed Girls at Milton Keynes 1982 and anything from Wembley 1986. And what is absolutely obligatory, is their Live Aid set. A charity concert held to raise money for the starving people in Ethiopia, two concerts held simultaneously in London and Philadelphia and with a worldwide television audience of One Billlion people, all the biggest name artists of the day gave their time for free. When Queen came on, is when the money really started rolling in and their performance regarded as the best on the day, and one of the best EVER by anyone, then or now. You will be amazed by the audience reactions to them, they didn’t even know Queen would be performing when they bought their tickets. You won’t be sorry if you watch it, even though it’s 20 minutes long..

The guitarist is Dr. Brian May, he has his own KZbin channel, graduated astrophysicist. He played the red special on the guitar he had built himself when he was 18. He is an excellent singer and also plays acoustic guitars, piano and keyboard. Oh, he wrote a lot of Queen songs like "How wants to live for ever", "we will rock you" and "i want it all". The drummer Rodger Taylor is also an excellent singer, i am in love with my car has already been mentioned a lot here in the comments. He often took over the high notes for Freddie in the concerts so that Freddie could spare his voice a little. He also wrote many Queen hits like "Radio Ga Ga" "A kind of Magic" and "Breakthru" Bass guitarist is John Deacon, he sang almost not. In addition to the bass guitar, he also played the double bass. He also wrote Queen songs "Another one bite the Dust", "I want to break free" and "Stone cold crazy" All four band members wrote number 1 hits.

[@papercup2517]

@@RadJarrettTheIntrovert Yep - he's an all-round impressive, special and lovely man! As a teenager, he couldn't afford to buy an electric guitar of his own, so he and his dad custom made one for him with things they found lying around, like wood from an old mantelpiece, the springs from under a bicycle saddle, and one of his his mother's knitting needles! He named it the Red Special (also sometimes, the Fireplace), and it's held up extraordinarily well to this day, being played often, sometimes in front of audiences of hundreds of thousands. In his spare time, he saves animals and occasionally acts as a consultant to NASA for space missions. He got his PhD in Astrophysics in later life, after putting it on the back-burner as a young man to pursue his dreams of becoming a rock star! Now he's an expert in Interplanetary Dust (aka Zodiacal Dust) - a really obscure aspect of astrophysics that hardly anyone else has studied much, thus NASA's need for his expertise...

I just subscribed so I could go on this Queen journey with you! There are SO many songs, they are all so different, they are all so GREAT (an understatement), you could literally spend months on this band. I think it is important to react to the studio/video versions first and then react to the live versions in a different video, when available. They are SO good, this is THE ultimate band for an audience, the audience loves them and they love the audience, especially Freddie Mercury (lead singer and piano.) He is the best frontman of ALL time, IMO. This band feeds off of the energy of a live audience and the song is at least the same, if not better, when live, which is rare. They change it up, they add vocals, speed up the tempo, but it is worth reacting to both versions. This is also a band that started off writing songs as individuals, credited to them individually and then later changed that to credit them to Queen the group. But individually all 4 members wrote songs for the band, all 4 have number 1 hits on charts across the world. I grew up with them and Michael Jackson. This is my generation of music and I am very happy about that. You go on this journey with Queen, you will think about music in a different way. And Queen fans are a passionate bunch, we love seeing new fans emerge so welcome to the crazy madness of Queen fandom! I want to see what you have coming up and as you advance I may have a few suggestions. ❤️

This was Freddie's favorite song. He loved it and it shows in his performance. Freddie, Brian, Roger and John always gave 110% in every song though. They just played so well together, so tight. Freddie sang with so much passion and emotion. It always amazes me how he can move around so much yet never miss a note. As you listen to more Queen you'll see how diverse the band is. Freddie could sing any genre. Check out his work with Montserrat Caballe. Your mind will be blown. He's just an incredible singer and performer. Try Who Wants to Live Forever studio version then the live version live at Wembley. Awesome performances. I'm definitely enjoying your reactions. Thank you and be safe. 💜💜💜💙💙💙💙💙🌞🌞🌞🌞

THANK YOU for recognizing how talented Queen was live. No autotune assistance. This was hard work, precision, perfecting their craft, their blend and their desire to continually evolve, experiment, and grow. In my humble and somewhat obsessed opinion Queen was one of a kind; countless bands and lead singers and top of the chart guitarists have praised them, pointed out Queen's influence on their own music and talk about them being the pioneers of music videos and the stage lighting. Their connection with the audience was amazing. A number of videos will show you how Freddie had them in the palm of his hand, how they responded to him and how it was a mutual love affair. Freddie often told the audience he loved them. It's true, we always felt valued by this group and in return our love and appreciation of this 'one in a billion' band has never wavered since the 70's. Each following generation has been introduced to Queen, heard the stories and continued to be amazed and wanting more! Now THAT'S a legacy!!

You can now react to the songs you most likely know - "We will rock you" (written by Brian) and "We are the champions (written by Freddie), these two songs were always played together.

This song was used in Happy Feet and Ella Enchanted. Both Brian May (Guitar) and Roger Taylor (Drums) fronted bands alongside their roles in Queen. Both are good singers...though not as good as Freddie who's generally considered one of the all-time greats. Freddie had a range of between 3-4 octaves. He also used subharmonics and his vibrato was faster than other singers. This is what gave his voice such texture and made it so distinctive. He was also very, very adaptable...not simply his ability to be in three different places at once but also across music genres...opera, rock, soul, funk, metal, jazz, rockabilly...you name it, Freddie sang it. Did you know there was a duet with Michael Jackson?

@@RadJarrettTheIntrovert As @Aletha Marsh says "There Must Be More to Life Than This". It has quite a complicated history. As I understand it, it was done as a Queen track but didn't make it to the album and so Freddie released it on his solo album. Both Michael and Freddie did solo versions and I think there are some fan mixes. The one Queen released on Forever (after Freddie's death and as "Queen and Michael Jackson") is the William Orbit mix. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIvNdKWhibGdlZI It might be worth some background research to ensure this is the best one. Others may know. :)

KZbin has a fan mix of the song under The Golden Duet (Freddie & MJ) THERE MUST BE MORE TO LIFE THAN THIS. Gorgeous song by Freddie!

@@debramoore7513 Yes...I prefer that one. It's just that it isn't the official one. As far as I'm aware Brian did a mix but it was turned down in favour of the Orbit mix.

This song actually came out on the Day at The Races record..which was one year after the Bohemian Rhapsody, which was on the "Night at The Opera Record.It was actually inspired by Freddie's Admiration and Love for Aretha Franklin. The song has a definite Gospel feel to it. Freddie was a one of a kind Genius talent . There will no doubt ever be anyone like him again !

Roger Taylor my hero!!! His leads vocals can be found on "I'm in Love with my Car", "Tenement Funster", "Drowse", "Modern Times Rock & Roll" and several others. He also did 3 solo albums, and was lead singer for the band The Cross. In late 2020 he released a new single about Covid called "Isolation" which is great as well.

Brian, Roger and John recorded a tribute to Freddie after he passed called “No One But You (Only The Good Die Young). A very sad song, but a good example of Brian and Roger’s singing voices in the later years. John Deacon (bass) didn’t sing much but he was a fantastic songwriter. Check out “Spread Your Wings” or “Who Needs You”.

Great reaction. Roger Taylor (drummer), can sustain a very high octave and also a very raspy or gravelly sound as well. One of my favourite isolated high octave is in “In the Lap of the Gods, specifically live at the Rainbow 1974.

I’m looking forward to reacting to his songs too.

Although they were complete professionals as well as a tight unit, their live shows were very spontaneous. No two performances were the same. BoRap from this show is amazing. This song has been in movies & Brian’s guitar riff from BoRap was in guitar hero.

[@ardentynekent2099]

His name is Sir Brian May. I told you that he holds a PhD in astrophysics, and is amazingly bright and talented! (Longer version about Brian May is on the last comment section on Queen. : o ) He and Freddie formed Queen.

[@anne-mariesindruprix4792]

Roger - the drummer and Brian the guitarist have good voices and have both made records as lead singers - or soloists. Had it not been for Freddie they could have filled in. Roger is the falsetto and he fills in for Freddie if he has problems - which happened as he had nodules on his voice cords .- and denied an operation - he was scared of the consequences on his singing voice. I think that Roger sings alone on "I'm in love with my car" which he wrote. You can hear both of them in "No one but you" - which Brian wrote after Freddies death. Brian, Roger and John recorded it and made a video that shows it - as if it was a rehearsal. It was released in 1997 on an album: Queen Rocks - and as a single in January 1998. One must remember a handkerchief . It is SO beautiful -Brian sings 2 verses, Roger 1 and the last verse they sing together. You can find the video by texting the title.

Your Queen reactions have intrigued me, so I subscribed to your channel. BoRap came out when I was in college, so my early exposures to Queen were on the radio in my car while driving to and from work. I also appreciate that you don't scream into the camera. It's going to be a good journey to see your reactions to Freddie, Brian, Roger, and John.

Thank you! White queen reaction publishing in a couple hours! Please let me know what you think as i have questions lol

[@meggiles6848]

Roger had the high voice you hear in their songs. If you listen to Bohemian Rhapsody, when you hear the Galileo that's Roger I worked with my sister Susiw one hit NYC summer day so we could buy that 45 when it came out. I subscribed after I fell on you doing The Green Day Concert sing along. I have always loved Queen. It's nice to see a new generation find Freddie and realize how special that he was. He was watching from Heaven smiling.

[@joandeluca6846]

Except for being in choir at boarding school as a child, Freddie never had a voice lesson. After hearing a recording of his singing voice at a very early Queen concert, Freddie said, ‘I can’t have that’. He went on and developed his own voice. Freddie knew what he wanted and he worked until he achieved it. Without Freddie, there never would have been Queen. Brian and Roger were ready to give up when Tim Staffell, the guitarist and singer for Smile, walked away from the band. Freddie was Tim’s friend at Ealing Art College that they attended together. He introduced them to Freddie and he would go to all Smile’s gigs. When Tim left, Freddie asked to join, where he knew all the music. Freddie said ‘if there’s a new band we should have a new name’ and he suggested Queen. And Queen was born. John Deacon joined the band in 1971 after the band had auditioned, hired and released a number of bass guitarists. John was hired for his talent and personality. He was educated and on the quiet side. They didn’t want a showboat or an ego problem. Queen wanted to be the best band they possibly could be, and they definitely were the GOAT👑💛👑

[@lizhasbrouck1376]

Hi Red -- confirmed introvert here and I rarely comment on anything. And I appreciate your getting "out here" in your reactions. Anyway, I am a huge Queen fan, and want to answer a couple of your questions. 1. Roger Taylor on drums sang the extreme high notes on Bohemian Rhapsody (e.g., "Galileo"), and "Somebody to Love." 2. Freddy Mercury, front man and lead singer, not only had an incredible voice "instrument," he had an extra set of back molars that could have been removed to correct his overbite. I know this from various sources as well as my own experience. He declined the extractions, worried that it would change the shape of his mouth and, therefore, his vocal quality. Barbara Streisand made the same calculation regarding a nose-job. She declined nose reduction surgery, worried that it would affect the quality of her voice. 3. Brian May (lead guitar and astro-physicist) may not be the most technically agile lead guitarist, but (as he has said in interviews) his talent is in projecting the emotion of the moment through his guitar. That is SO evident during his solos, which is why you never interrupt his (or anyone's) solos -- I put him up with Eric Clapton in terms of the sheer emotion they get from 6 strings.
