Brian May's parents couldn't afford to buy Brian an electric guitar so his dad suggested that they build one (his dad built everything even their TV and other appliances). They built the guitar entirely with hand tools and from junk they had laying around the house. The main body is made from a piece of an old fireplace the tremolo is made from one of his mom's knitting needles and a piece from a bicycle seat. The fret markers are made from some mother of pearl buttons his mom had, etc. This is a great song and I love the way the beginning breaks with Roger singing the first Don't Stop Me Now then it dives into the fast portion of the song. This song always puts me in a good mood, it is so inspirational . Thank you for your reactions.

Brian May is responsible for one of the most iconic and influential guitar tones of all time, evident in his many mammoth hits with Queen. Most players are familiar with May’s Red Special, the unique home-built guitar that May has used throughout his career. But less known is another integral bit of gear from the Queen studio: a tiny home-built amp known as the Deacy Amp. The Red Special (Brian's guitar) was constructed mostly from items found around May’s home, including wood from a 100-year-old fireplace surround and the buttons and knitting needles from his mother's sewing chest. The Deacy, Amp, meanwhile, started life in a London dumpster. Shortly after Queen bassist John Deacon (only 19 at the time and still at university) joined the band in 1971, he was walking along a London street when he spotted a cluster of bright electrical wires sticking out of a dumpster. As an electrical engineering student with a penchant for tinkering, the wires warranted a closer look. Deacon did some digging and found they were connected to a circuit board. Once he returned home, he noted that the board seemed to be from an old radio. Deacon then retrofitted the circuit board and wiring into a small cabinet that housed two speakers, including a 6.5-inch Elac Twin Cone. He installed a quarter-inch input jack and a volume knob, the latter later removed when he discovered that the makeshift amp sounded its best when turned all the way up. The whole unit was powered by a brick-sized PP9 nine-volt battery pack. Deacon initially used his creation as a practice amp for his guitar, which he played alongside bass and keyboards (he played rhythm guitar on the 1982 Queen track Staying Power). Eventually, Deacon brought the amp to the band’s rehearsal space to show it off. Then May, famous for using a treble booster with a single-transistor circuit - in those days the OC44 germanium transistor-based Dallas Rangemaster - plugged in. Stoked by the guitarist’s renowned high-attack play style and combined with his treble booster and Red Special, it became clear that the Deacy Amp was the final piece of the puzzle. Queen had discovered their famous tone, one we’d be left chasing for decades to come. Brian quickly adopted the Deacy Amp (pronounced Deeky) and used it on tracks such as 1974’s Killer Queen. This was at a time when 100-watt Marshall stacks lined stages and tube-amp power reigned supreme. The Deacy Amp, however, had an output of about 1.5 watts, so it was never intended to be used on stage. Brian found it perfect, however, for studio recording. It was used on over 90% of Queen's studio recordings. The Deacy Amp’s sound characteristics sat differently in the mix to those of the Vox AC30, for example, especially in the way its sound combined with its own overdubbed harmonies. Brian described its sound as “symphonic”. Brian used the little amp from the 1970s until the 90s and, unlike most amps, the Deacy Amp, unburdened by complexity, never failed to deliver a consistent tone. It was a solid-state design and had no tubes, which made it more durable than a tube amp. According to Brian, it never malfunctioned. In 1998, during the months when he was tasked with restoring Brian's Red Special, Australian guitar and amp-maker Greg Fryer became the first to open up and examine the Deacy in detail, at May’s Allerton Hill studio. In June of that year, Fryer asked David Petersen, historian and co-author of 1993 book The Vox Story: A Complete History of the Legend, to collaborate with him and build three Deacy replicas for May’s studio. The replicas were good but didn’t sound the same as the original. It would be a while and many secrets later before the Deacy would finally unveil its tonal mysteries. In July 1998, Fryer spoke to John Deacon about the origins of the Deacy, with its maker’s information shedding light on the amp’s unusual origins. When Fryer then returned to Sydney in late 1998, with May’s blessing he continued his research into the Deacy and made further experimental prototypes. Then, 12 years after the project’s inception, in 2010, the Brian May Deacy Amp replica was given the official stamp of approval by May and Deacon.

That actually is the one song that Queen said it couldn’t be done very well live. Freddie stopped singing because in a documentary Brian said it was the only time he went on stage 1/2 lit! He was so embarrassed he never did it again. The song is just a fun song with him having a great time and didn’t want anyone to rain in his parade, so to speak. FYI. It’s the number one voted best song to play while driving. Please do reaction of Love of My Life live at Wembley 1986. (Brian plays a 12 string acoustic guitar). Must see

Queen only performed this live during 1979 tours. It's rapid pace proved difficult to include in an already energetic 2 hour show. It was used in the movie, "Shaun of The Dead", (not Wayne's World.) Lady Godiva was an 11th century noblewoman married to an Earl who reigned over the region of Coventry. She opposed the excessive taxes he levied on citizens; he agreed to lower them if she would ride through the streets naked. Her hair was very long and she used it as cover. This event is also where the term "Peeping Tom" stems from. My mom loved the story.

I was playing a bunch of oldies music while to fill the time and when this song came on my grandma started tapping her toe and dancing away in the passenger seat. Not a song I would have expected her to enjoy, but she was having a blast.

His voice is so amazing and such an entertainer. Another favorite of mine is Under Pressure. You'll have to react to the live at Wembley version (5:56 minute version). The crowd control he had on the crowd.. Truly amazing. Also Another One Bites the Dust live at Wembley also is awesome. As talented as all of the members of the band are Freddie is my favorite. Have you ever paid attention to how Roger Taylor (drummer) and Freddie's voices harmonize together in all of their live performances (especially in Somebody to Love). Thanks for the reaction.

Important thing to remember about Queen live is they never performed exactly the same way twice. Freddie was always changing things up to keep it fresh for audience and band. I was lucky enough to see them twice at 15 & 16. Concerts in general were more spontaneous as they didn’t use backing tracks or choreography, it was pure musical and vocal talent constantly surprising and delighting. I’ve seen good shows since and appreciate them but nothing will even touch summer nights in my teens at CNE stadium (where the Blue Jays played before Skydome) getting lost in The Who (2x), Queen (2x), Simon & Garfunkle Reunion Tour, Steve Winwood, Rod Stewart, Billy Joel, The Beach Boys & very early U2. It was all about the power of the music and the talent.

The reason there are soooo MANY Freddie Mercury AI covers of other’s songs, now…. is because people MISS him. And since - obviously - we know we (probably) won’t ever be treated to hearing another new song sung by Fred… then AI covers are the next best thing. (I said we “probably” won’t ever hear anything new, because - who knows - Queen or whoever owns Freddie’s solo archive, might find something, someday… Back in 2012, they released a previously unheard song “Let Me In Your Heart Again”, from their 1984 recording sessions. AND… Just a couple years ago, Queen released a commemorative boxed set from their Miracle album, with - I “think” this number is right - 30 previously unreleased demo tracks!! …Only one of those was polished and released as a single “Face It Alone” (which is POWERFUL and HAUNTING.) …There is ALSO an unreleased duet of Freddie AND Michael Jackson together - it’s titled “Victory” - buried somewhere in the Jackson’s vault! …So, you never know.)

I understand it is believed this song was about Freddie finding and revelling in his true sexuality. He was out there, indulging in every way possible. Brian May has since said for him it is a very dark song as Freddie was living on the edge with his double life and pushing himself to the limits with sex and drugs. Brian was very worried about him at the time. Written in the few years before AIDS horrifically decimated the gay community, Brian's fears for Freddie's wellbeing would eventually come to pass.

Not only do the electronics help produce the sound, but he uses a "sixpence," a ribbed coin like a US quarter, as a pick to get others. As for my favorite song, ask me which one of my kids I like better. I'd have to say " March of the Black Queen/ Funny How Love Is" off of Side Black on Queen II.

It was a comedy club earlier in the evening and they were still clearing away chairs when we got down there. The bar staff were popping pills. The place was filling up. And then the lights went down and they played this full blast to get the night going. It was one of my best nights ever. There's no better song to warm up a crowd.

There is an exceptional album track which is among my favorite album tracks by Queen which I respectfully invite you both to react to. It is from the 1976 album titled A Day At The Races. It is a hard rock ballad called White Man. Please Play LOUD😮😊! Please select the studio version from the album.

Somebody to love is my favorite Queen song,. So many reactions video's use a live version, but it is not nearly as good as their studio version. Stone Cold Crazy is awesome and considered an early Heavy Metal song by them. They have so many awesome songs! I could go on listing so many of their big hits, but I will instead mention a few hidden gems - one sung by Brian May called '39. Mustapha off of their Jazz album, which I think is an underrated album. The Prophet's song is another favorite of mine, but not a radio hit.

For anybody at all interested in guitars there is a book called Brian May's Red Special co-written by Brian which is absolute full of info and photos about how it was made. It also has chapters about Brian playing at Buckingham Palace and his involvement in the movie "Bohemian Rhapsody". A fascinating read.

Brian May is also an astrophysicist. I think I remember reading somewhere that John Deacon designed the amp he uses with his guitar. Deacon is the bass player and has an engineering degree.

Over time May continued to update his guitar. He could actually make it sound like an orchestra. At the end of each concert the British National anthem, God Save the Queen played. It was an instrumental played by the band.

Brian May loved Rory Gallagher when he was a kid. He went to see him often. One time he went up and talked to Rory. Asked how he got the sound he did. Rory explained what gear he used. Brian went out, bought the stuff and never looked back

The reason Queen is so great is Freddie had a perfect rock and roll voice. Brian May has a PhD in astrophysics. He’s brilliant.
