Great review as usual, Viking. You are the best as is Dan. Dan is doing total justice to Queen and Freddie Mercury. Please, please check out The Last Goodbye by Dan from the movie, The Hobbit. You will see another side of Dan that is much different from the Hard Rock-Heavy Metal Superman.

Dan perfectly captures the esence of what Freddie was about, which was pure showmanship. And that voice, with his own twist. I have been a Queen fan since the late 70’s and this didn’t disappoint. Great reaction from you as always.

As always brilliantly performed by Dan and fantastic reaction from you Viking. just incase you haven't heard. Sir Brian May announced the release of a Queen song record 50 years ago called The Night Comes Down. It was there first ever track as Queen. If I understand right it was never released until now. Hope your dream comes true and you make a great living from your videos for you and your family.

Another fantabulous SaturDANday reaction- except my internet going wonky while I was enjoying this…I could not get it back on in time, but thankfully I got to see the rest! Thank you always, Viking for showing love and support to our beloved Brazilian!!! I agree with you that Dan did this Queen rendition remarkably well and he knows how to keep his own sound in there and not sound like a copycat. I ABSOVASCALUTELY love the Vasc!!! What an artist….and what an epic man he truly is. No one is like the Vasc. (Yes, I am partial, yes, I might sound mushy-gushy, and oozing with love….I am totally cool with that. 🥰)

I agree. There is no substitute for Freddie Mercury. However, if there was a musician who could do Mercury justice without trying to do an imitation, it would be Dan Vasc. Musically his covers are very similar but vocally he has a darker quality. Grittier, more rasp and a bit more punch to his vocals. And I find I enjoy his take on them. He knows who he is and doesn't try to be someone else. That is a quality to appreciate. Great reaction. Hail Vasc-Nation ❤️🤘✝️

I just realized I got so excited about the livestream today I forgot to comment! I love SaturDanDay. It had been a while since I listened to this cover from Dan, and there were some things I had forgotten about it, so it was 'almost' like seeing it for the first time. Like you, I'm a longtime fan of Queen, and Dan did a great job on this one. As you said, he remained true to the original but still made it his own. Just Dan doing Dan things. Love it. Thanks for reacting.

Brian May brought Anita Dobson (they were dating at the time) to a concert… and she made the remark that she wanted it all and she wanted it now. She was totally entranced with what the band was doing and how they were doing it. And Brian turned it into a song that Freddie ran with. And Dan did a great job putting his own spin on that as well. Great review.!!!

Missed the live, so sad to say.. However I think your reaction to this Dan version was utterly wonderful.. I have loved Freddie for well over half of my lifetime, yes 50 years give or take a couple, Queen as a group too of course and being a Brit I am very defensive about them all.. but Dan did a spectacular rendition of this and your analysis was just perfect, so tonight I got to listen to 3 of my most favourite people, Freddie (in my head), Dan and of course you Viking I am so grateful to you for that..

Can't say that I really enjoyed them and I am surprised by that because I am also a fan of Mr. Lambert. I really miss Freddy. Dragon Lady out.

when I look at these covers I feel like I'm making a fool of myself. It's nice to see how much a person cares about a figure like a singer, but when they get into singing and imitating Freddie Mercury the gulf between the cover and the original is absolutely obvious.

Continued good wishes Queen's Brian May, who has apparently recovered from a minor stroke. Since you are critical of queen covers, there is an individual Freddie tribute artist you may want to check out. His name is Marc Martell, and his version of Bohemian Rhapsody should probably be on your bucket list. Hey, in Wisconsin we know cheesy, and your ambition is the opposite of cheesy. It is admirable!
@VikingReacts8 күн бұрын
Oh but I know Marc well. He gets very very close to Freddie but is slightly more clean and cautious. Freddie has a rawness that Marc barely missed to catch. But yes, I enjoy him as well. His audition was spot on!
@divab637 күн бұрын
So I saw Queen with Freddie in the early 80’s (yes I’m that old) I also saw Queen with Adam Lambert. Huge Queen fan. Over the years my feelings about them have evolved. It is no longer just about Freddie. Without the rest of the band Freddie would not be as respected as he is today. Was he an amazing vocalist? Yes! One of a kind. But Queen is more than Freddie. Now as a separate note, Freddie could not have done all the parts the way Dan does. I am not saying Dan is better than Freddie,but different voices can do different things. Sometimes we put people on pedestals and refuse to see anything less than perfection. Without the band supporting Freddie, this song would be what it is. Just a perspective from someone who has seen Queen live over the decades.

Dan did a great job on this, as he always does. Shocking (good shock!) to see him in a white shirt and tie. Does anyone know the significance of why he would wear this for this particular song? It's got me curious because Freddie wore a white tank quite a bit. Thanks, Viking! This was a new song for me - appreciate your critique❣

G'day Viking, This is one of my faves too,,, it's hard to find a bad one from either Dan or Queen, both are just that bloody good, ay?... I don't often comment but I always like, and I've been subbed for a good while now. It's hard to believe that you only have 36-odd K subs, I was sure you had more, so when you said your ambition was to get to 100K, I went, nahhh, surely that's not right,,, either this was an older vid that I somehow missed or someone was havin' a tug... So I went and had a bit of a Captain Cook mate, and sure as shittin' a cat - 36K in a bit over 3 and a half years,,, ya coulda knocked me down with a feather 🪶 🤣🤣 As far as ambition goes, all I ever wanted was to have healthy kids and grandkids,,, ticked both of those boxes ☑️✅... I s'pose that's about all ya can really ask for in this life 😉 🙃🐨🇦🇺
