I Am Heartbroken... First Time Reaction to Queen - "These Are The Days Of Our Lives"

[@fikryhasan5225]

I'm a 50 years old Queen fan and also a metalhead, but whenever I watch this music video I couldn't help but shed a tear. RIP, Freddie Mercury. Gone too soon.

[@CR7ADP10]

Same.

[@nickgraham2506]

Yep, me too. Breaks my heart. To see the heartache on the faces of the rest of the band just gets me.

[@Yhuless]

Me too

[@andreamanning3297]

Me too. God love him.

[@airbrushpower]

@fikryhasan5225 Same. Massive Queen fan since about 12. I also remember being 17 when Freddie passed away at 46 and thinking "well he was old and had a good life". Now I'm 50 and OMG! He was so young! 46 is only mid-life. So tragic.

[@daveloboda1769]

No matter how many times I've seen this, and it is a lot, I'm always amazed at Freddie's performance for a man who was so ill. His "I still love you", his final farewell, at the end always brings a tear.

[@pedrorodriguez2755]

I like also that there is a color version of the recording of the music video, which was filmed in black and white to hide Freddie's appearance. This was the last video... Freddie's "cat jacket" was auctioned in Sotheby's last year, it was designed by Diane Moseley (the same of crown and cape of the "magic tour").

[@iche50]

Don't cry because he died' Smile because He was born..

[@JANI1980.]

Perfectly said 😇

[@Gr8Buccaneer]

for sure,the world would be different,without "bohemian", "we will rock you" and "we are the champions"

[@catherinefitzgerald7291]

Why not cry? It's already a forgone conclusion that we are grateful he was born.

[@robertpetre9378]

Because he lived and how he lived

[@Valmoorer]

[@paulmargett9360]

Freddie passed away 33 years ago tomorrow (24th November 91) this video was recorded in the May of that year. I cried like that 33 years ago when I first saw it. Freddie loved his cats, find the song "Delilah" about one of his cats. Much love from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@szymonpietrzak7777]

I really love Delilah, such a cute song about Freddie's beloved cat that made him happy when he was dying. Lots of love from Poland 🇵🇱

[@jefferyprem9285]

Deacon was there. He was sitting on a stool next to Freddie

[@yarmazanashviliilia]

Also Cool Cat is amazing

[@TocadaLeitura]

Wow! 33 years ago! Some people bring such a positive impact to others that they should be allowed to live forever...

[@ashbriant]

Am I right in saying that the song wasn't released until after Freddie's death? He was so ill when he made this video. What a legend RIP❤

[@markpalmer7215]

Freddie’s “goodbye” to the fans. His last words ever on camera “I still love you”. He was very brave to get up there & do this even though he could barely stand. Remember watching this for the first time the day he died & teared up then & still brings lump to throat even now. 33 years later did I think Freddie & Queen would still be so popular- absolutely not, the sad thing is I think Freddie is more loved & appreciated now than he was when he was alive & he never got to see such acclaim from the wider public. From all accounts he was a wonderful person, generous to a fault & so funny. Which makes it all the more sad how he suffered in his last years & makes me despise the press for how they treated him during that period. This video is emotional - his last video appearance “Mother love” is emotional- his last vocal “The show must go on” is emotional because of the powerful lyrics (quite possibly the best lyrics Brian ever wrote) Other emotional stuff (although Freddie wasn’t sick at the time), “who wants to live forever” & “time waits for no one” I’d also recommend “making of one vision (long version) where you’ll see Freddie’s genius at work

[@thomasnieswandt8805]

He was so sick, everyone was relieved that the video was filmed and he "survived" the filming. However, Freddie said "No, i can do the ""I love you" better." Because he realized that this would be his final words ever recorded.

[@Neil_BT]

One of my favourite quotes from Sir Terry Pratchett's books is "No one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away." Freddie's music will keep his ripples travelling for eternity. Sleep tight Fred, we still love you.

[@iris67si]

John IS in the video along with Roger and Freddie. Brian is there too but he wasn't present when the video was recorded. Brian was in the US promoting their last album Innuendo and because of Freddie's illness they couldn't wait for him to return, so John and Roger shot the video with Freddie. Brian's part was shot later and carefully added to it. You really can't see that especially on your first time watching it. Because Freddie's frail appearance it was made in black and white but even that can't really mask how frail Freddie was. But he insisted to appear because he knew it was the last time he will stand in front of the camera and he wanted to say goodbye to his fans. 😢 "I still love you." 💔 Freddie, dear, we still love you and we always will.

[@baz1106]

Yes, John Deacon is in the Video...on the left, sitting on a stool. Even after all this time, it's a tough watch and that guitar solo from Brian gets me every time but the final message from Freddie " I still love you" is worth the effort. From what I've read, the making of this video was a massive effort for Freddie but he insisted on doing it. It was his good bye to all of us.

[@marcinrechcinski7015]

But she was sort of right - Deacon wasn't actually present at the recording; he was added afterwards to the footage

[@mightyV444]

​@@marcinrechcinski7015 - Almost correct! It was Brian who'd been absent and whose scenes had to be edited in seperately.

[@rickb.4168]

The “I still love you,” kills me every time.

[@josephbishop3590]

I was already crying when you started...then I'm ugly crying. I'm a 64 yo metal head and every song on their last album bring me to tears, knowing we'll never know another soul like his. Musical spirit embodied. RIP

[@danielesussarello8340]

Io avevo....AVEVO smesso di ascoltarli per questo motivo,piangevo quasi ogni volta che li sentivo...dopo 13 anni che quasi non li ascoltavo ora li ho ripresi ...ma fa soffrire.....

[@Calmontheoutside]

It never, ever gets “easier” to watch this one. But what a gift it is.

[@BrianAltomari]

That was probably the most moving reaction to a song I’ve ever seen. Stacey you are a true empath, feelings run through you even though you never really listened to Queen before. Freddie was a true legend and was loved by every single solitary friend, family and fan. R.I.P. Freddie Mercury, the beloved frontman that sang music that will forever live on in beautiful souls like yours. You are loved, and Freddie is definitely looking down and smiling, loving your words and smilies.

[@Cadinho93]

Freddie Mercury was so sick, but still sang his heart out! This was his last video, his goodbye. Also, there's a reason they filmed this in black and white. Watch the color footage and you can see how sick Freddie was. NONE of the bandmates are smiling in this. They KNEW, but the most heartbreaking thing? As sick and in pain as he was, Freddie's smile at that last "I still love you". That's Freddie saying "I know, loves, but life goes on. Be your best selves".

[@threekidzmom04]

💔

[@cheetarah9199]

Something I never noticed before, but Brian gives the camera a look at the end, his expression is almost like 'it'll be ok, guys'

[@cwancyk]

John Deacon was here all the time, as always he kept himself in the back, most humble human being I've ever witnessed. What a soul...

[@Euderos91]

Fun fact: This song was written by the drummer Roger Taylor and it was meant to be about his kids and family, but Freddie gave it additional depth that made it so much better. Freddie left this world on his own terms, the last few years of his life him and the rest of the band were very prolific knowing that he didn't have much time left. The album "Innuendo" from 1991 was their last recorded together, and the "Made in Heaven" from 1995 was pretty much band putting instrumental tracks on pre-recorded vocals of Freddie. I strongly recomend "Who wants to live forever", "Innuendo" and "Mother's Love" (The actual last song that he ever sung, halfway through he put down the mike because he was exhausted that day and he never finished it).

[@Добро21]

She had already listened to the song "Innuendo". kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXqtfXqfepdpqJosi=vnik8pCdUuT86r_6

@Добро21 oh, thank you ❤️

[@pasi4118]

The video was filmed on May 30, 1991. It was Freddie Mercury's last filmed performance, as he died on November 24 of that year. Unreleased backstage footage of the shooting of the video appeared in the Days of our Lives documentary, showing Mercury's deteriorating physical condition (extremely skinny and pale) largely covered up by makeup and colorful attire. Brian May speculated in the documentary that Freddie was "saying his goodbye" in that video, knowing that he would likely not be healthy enough to perform anymore. The song was originally written by Roger Taylor about his children, and how parenthood made him look back on his own life. Inevitably, the song took on new meaning when it was announced that Freddie Mercury had AIDS and knew he was going to die soon when he recorded this. Mercury did not tell the public about his disease until shortly before he died. It's highly likely this was also on Taylor's mind when he wrote the lyrics - Mercury told the band and manager Jim Beach about his AIDS diagnosis in 1987, but ordered them to keep it secret. Brian May described it in the Days of our Lives documentary: "We hid everything. I guess we lied! Because we were trying to protect him." Freddie Mercury made sure the band worked on this song despite his illness. He wanted to make music until he was no longer physically capable, and with the band not touring due to Mercury's health, they spent a lot of their time in the studio working. Mercury insisted on the band giving him music and lyrics, and he would continue to record for as long as his health permitted. His bandmates speculated that recording helped Mercury deal with the illness.

[@christopherrmcarter1809]

RIP Freddie, the ultimate show man. Gone but never forgotten. Rejoice in the fact that he left a large footprint for us to enjoy every day.

[@deborahallen3318]

Hi Stacey. I hope you are well. Im a lifelong Queen fan. I first went to a Queen concert in 1974 an not missed a tour since then. Over 50 shows in all. The last tour both Wembley and Knebworth Park. This song breaks my heart. If you ask any Queen fan, at the end when Freddie looks into the camera and says "I still love you." every fan will say that Freddie is saying it to them - personally 😢 I cannot watch this without tearing up. Thank you for another brilliant reaction Stacy. I love your videos. Please, more Queen ❤❤❤

[@elkevera]

Freddie is the most courageous man I have ever known in my long live. He filmed the last scene twice. I am glad that Rudi put a filter over the video, Brian said it took hours to put on his make-up.- I have a huge picture when you first enter my house and I look at him and am reminded that all my worries are minimal, he gives me strength. And yes: We still love you ❣

[@erichirsch583]

Don’t cry stacey.. you’re too beautiful to be emotional.. I miss Freddie even today too.😭😭😭

[@kenbrandon6434]

John Deacon was there. The way he was playing the bass was reminding me how good the whole band was, a true supergroup. Roger actually wrote this song for his newborn son, but knowing of Freddie’s illness, it evolved and he has said Freddie made it his own and his true good-bye. Roger now sings it in the few concerts they now do, with Adam Lambert as the lead singer.

[@WilliumGreen]

To see the truly mind-blowing strength and love of Freddie, you need to watch, I'M GOING SLIGHTLY MAD. He was so ill during this video that Brian May didn't think they would be able to finish it. But, Freddie got up from he's chair, and refused to stop until it was done. He's Love for music, he's determination and courage shines from him in every single frame. A remarkable man.

[@armyveteran101st]

I was 23 years old when Freddie passed in 1991. I heard the news on the radio that day and it was a huge shock, as his illness had been kept secret. I’m almost 57 years old now and I still mourn Freddie’s loss. Queen’s music was the soundtrack of my youth and still a big part of my life… Thank you for appreciating it, Stacey ❤

Dear Stacey, just looking at how Freddie was like before getting sick and his final videos is heartbreaking. From a man full of life to a shadow of his former self. How he managed to find the strength (both physically and mentally) to keep pushing barriers and performing is beyond my understanding. Thank you for your very heartfelt reaction to the best ever frontman who stepped on a stage.

Deacon was all the way on the left of Freddie , but they showed him at times. Freddie passed away almost 4 months later, he lost part of his foot and went blind by then. He couldn’t sing anymore, even though he still had music and love of beauty inside of him, one of his close people around him at the end said. “Lover of life, singer of songs”. Yes, I admire and love Freddie even more knowing how STRONG and how much of a class act he was at the end, never complaining, never feeling sorry for himself, never blaming anyone, worrying about his friends and loved ones more than himself. Caring, loving and generous to the end. 💔❤❤❤

[@JONSEY101]

Stacey, you are such a wonderful soul. I hope life never changes the best parts of you became you are what the world needs. Queen, as we're many others, so good back in the day. Times were difficult for people even that but people made their way through them, together. We listened to great music, had fun and loved. People had tougher skin too and knew the difference between a joke and real meanness. Queens music was, in many ways, like no other and one of the many things that made them popular. You'll find there were singers then who became astronomical stars in their own right and for the right reasons, people who reached such highest and touched the hearts of so many. It's definitely not something you see so much of today and definitely not to such stardom and popularity. It didn't matter what genre of music you were into, each had their own top performers and people got along. Such great times with wonderful memories. Music and film were something special! A great reaction video. Have a fantastic day, take care! ❤

[@JennyColwell-tb6cm]

[@johnroberthines7811]

😢Can't help tearing up it's a long time now since i listened to this, it also takes me back when me and my sisters lost our dear Mum 😢. The reason they filmed in black and white was to help minimise how frail Freddie was at the time of recording to help reduce the shock to fans when watching the video. But when the video came out of the making of these are the days of our lives in colour it really shows how ill and frail Freddie really was. R. I. P.

I knew you were gonna react to this song, seeing as several people I saw in the comments of previous videos requested it. I love this song despite the sad undertone. I’ve been watching your videos reacting to Queen songs, and I’ve enjoyed them, especially the live aid performance. I knew this song was gonna hit hard for you, but I’m glad you reacted to it. I hope you’re having yourself a lovely day. Definitely am glad to have been enjoying your reactions to Queen lately ❤ Also, John was in the video. If I remember correctly, Freddie, Roger and John were present to record most of the shots in the music video, but Brian at the time was busy with something. But sometime later (a month or so, I can’t recall at the moment), he showed up to record his parts. He was edited in the wide shot of the entire band near the end of the video, which was nice to give a final view of the band members together

A very heartfelt song written by Roger Taylor (drums) of Queen... Apparently, it was written to Freddie Mercury, knowing he was ill and would be gone soon... Roger and Freddie knew each other before Queen got together and said he was feeling melancholy and wanted to write something positive about the present.

Another wonderful Queen review Stacey. Happy Freddie Day for tomorrow. It’s 33 years ago tomorrow (24/11/91) since we lost Freddie. He’s gone from this world, but will never ever be forgotten. Legends never die. R.I.P. FREDDIE ❤

Dear Stacey, your tears always make me cry too. I really love your emotional response. 🥰

My best friend died same year as Freddie ... I will never forget him, he was the sweetest guy ... only 35 yrs💔 listening to this tonight thinking of him.

Mother love is the final song, he knew they would have to finish it without him , the singing is amazing, definitely worth a reaction.

Great reaction to one of Queen's most melancholy songs and videos. Still breaks my heart a bit and I still tear up. John Deacon is in the video in several places, but as the most reserved and retiring of the band he never really was one to want to spend much time in front of the camera. After Freddie passed away he did only a few more performances (IIRC) with the band and he was obviously uncomfortable and pretty much chain smoking cigarettes before the performances, and after the last performance he told Brian and Roger that he couldn't do it again. I understand that he's still very involved with the band's business and is involved in the financial decisions and legacy decisions, like approving the movie made about the band, but he really never seemed comfortable on stage and in public without the bulwark of Freddie's personality to kind of hide behind. As someone who often feels very awkward in social situations unless I have close friends to hide behind/prop me up, I can understand that. He has basically become a recluse, and I can understand that too. Other Queen songs I think you should react to: Seven Seas of Rye: Another song like Killer Queen that doesn't go on long enough. Very upbeat! Teo Torriate: Another great somewhat melancholy song like this one, but from much earlier in their history. You're My Best Friend: A wonderfully happy song written by John Deacon for and about his wife Veronica who he has been married to since 1975. 🙂

There is a video on how this clip was done in which Freddie told the others: «let’s do this, I don’t have too much time… ». What a legend! ❤

We celebrate Freddie's strength, Freddie's talent, Freddie's art.

Freddie was in the studio making thier what would be final record w/ Freddie."Made In Heaven" 1995.He kept asking them to write more lines.His last song was Mother Love.Guitarist Brian May sang the last verse.Right after Freddie passed. Another heart wrenching song & video is No One But You (Only the Good Die Young) The surviving members Brian May & drummer Roger Taylor .If you can watch that one.Still a tear jerker though

I cry every time. He was so dedicated until the very end and i wonder what great music we never got to hear.

[@drew2370]

You gave one the most real, personal reaction.....Im 51 and remember Queen , i've seen them, you see and feel what Freddie and the band want you to understand......you should be VERY proud !

[@sarahlynnie2000]

The Show Must Go On is a MUST watch! There is no LIVE version, as he was too sick. But the "live" fan edit is pretty good. I prefer the official video, though, as it shows Freddie throughout his career. Brian wrote the song for Freddie, and was afraid it would be too difficult for him to perform in his state at the time. But Freddie took a shot of vodka, and said "I'll fucking do it!" He never turned down a challenge, he always had an optimistic mind, and he would do ANYTHING to give his fans his very best, until the very end.

GREAT reaction Stacey!! Such a beautiful song - it always gets my eyes misty! You, like Freddie, have a deep love of cats - you should hear the song 'Delilah' from this same album - dedicated to his cats! When this video came out, it was before his death - you can imagine our surprise (and shock & heartbreak) at how he looked! Rewind to the videos for I Want It All & Scandal, etc. from 1989's The Miracle - you could see something was different with him - he had a beard which helped to hide some of the changes, but speculation on his health had begun. Contrast to here...we saw a gaunt, pale Freddie - a previously fit and exuberant was gone. Keep in mind that he only confirmed his illness a day before he died!! But we knew here that something was up...and the song only served to reinforce his 'goodbye' to us! Yes, it's painful to watch - and you can also see it on his bandmates' faces! And yes, John was there in a couple shots. RIP Mr. Mercury, you were one of a kind! A Queen forever.

The video was done in May 91, he passed 6 months later in November 91. He did the very last I still love you, looking straight into the camera, knowing that was the last time people would see him on camera The cat waist coat was made specially for him and are the cats he owns, the main one on the front is Delilah, his favourite. Also wrote a song about her for Queen of the same name. Maybe you should react to it. I find it rather funnya

Who else could write a line like "You peed on my Chippendale suite"? 😁
