“I don’t know where I go from here?” You go live. Queen live is another level.

I'm glad you did the studio version BUT this is one of those songs that you truly need to also react to the live in Montreal version. One of the best live performances ever. And I know you'd enjoy the hell out of it.💙☮

They are showing the recording footage and a live performance footage with the studio recording over it. Now that you've seen the studio, you really need to watch the live for this song that's pretty much considered the best live performance Queen ever gave. Montreal 1981. 😄

Now that you've heard the studio recording, check it out live. Specifically the 1981 Queen at Montréal. It's epic.

Their 23min live performance at LIVE AID was fantastic...check it out

As stated below this song live at Montreal is mind blowing. Freddie is absolutely amazing in that performance. I love this song and I love this studio version but Montreal is beyond human in Freddie's vocals. Thank you for reacting to this great song.

Thanks for reacting to Queen! The live versions of this are legendary - the 1981 Montreal version is the one most people love, although the 1982 is different but also amazing and I think I prefer it. After that, white queen live at Hammersmith 1975 is incredible.

The guitarist is Dr. Brian May astrophysicist, they were very educated and talented. Also Freddie wore ballet shoes with his leotard😁do White Queen live at Hammersmith it's mind blowing.

Freddie Mercury was such a gift to the world. Must do’s are ‘Love of My Live’ live at Montreal, ‘The Show Must Go On” live and ‘Who Wants to Live Forever’ live at Wimbley. They were magical in the live performances.

Drummer, bass player and lead guitarist are singing backup!

Early works are great too...WHITE QUEEN live at Hammersmith...

love this song!! for sure, like everyone else has stated, check out this live in Montreal, 1981. you will be blown away!!! no speaking lightly. Freddie had several outfits...even short shorts. if you're going down the rabbit hole - take snacks.

1981 Montreal live! This is the one that need so be reacted to! Queen does anything but talk to to you lightly!🤣 Great reaction as usual!💪🏻👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😱✊🏻💥💯🔥💥

Another one bites the dust!!! Is a great song by them!!

I am a new subscriber because of your Queen videos, due to Queen being my favorite band. Queen is iconic and I'm almost willing to bet you know Queen. Remember High School football games? "We Will Rock You" and "We are the Champions" are both Queen classics. You might also have heard "Another One BItes the Dust". I suggest you try the 1985 Live Aid concert. Enjoy the ride!

Greatest group of all times.

One of thee greatest voices in actual rock bands. Phenom.

Trust…. He had plenty of lovin’ 😂. Like everyone else is commenting, please do the the live version of this Montreal 1981.

❤👏👏👏👏👏Great reaction AB! Queen Live Aid at Wembley Stadium will supply the orange juice for a year. Several songs performed live. Fire and juice. May I say, your new equipment looks good on you! 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Got to do Somebody to Love Live 1981 Montreal...🔥🔥

PLEASE, PLEASE, you have to also do this song live from Montreal 1981….One of the best live performances EVER!!! Especially for reaction videos! It is a MUST….I promise you won’t regret it!!! 🔥🔥🍊🧃🍊🧃💯😊

These are older reaction.....but I keep going back. You are still great. GOAT material.

Live at Montreal SOMEBODY TO LOVE is just as great

Freddie Mercury was a big fan of Aretha Franklin he wanted to do a song with her because he loved how much power she has in her voice and he loved her style. I think the next song you should do is White Queen and love of my life the live version in Montreal. Freddie Mercury Wrote that song for the woman he was going to marry, but it did not happen she still stay by his side when he came out to her

Thing about Freddie is he had all the confidence on stage, but off stage he was extremely shy, hard to believe but true. Queen was fantastic, and Freddie could sing any type of music, even Opera.

One of the, if not the best concerts I've ever seen in my nearly 60 yrs on the orb. 1982, Seattle Center. Blew this 18-year-old kid's mind. Freddie owned the stage like nobody I've seen since.

Great to see people come to this new and be blown away. We lost him too soon.

This song really shows Freddie Mercury's vocal range. We lost a truly gifted musician when AIDS took him from this world on November 24, 1991.

My favorite Queen song of all time!! Love the studio version & every live version out there. Gotta do this song live in Montreal 1981 considered Queen’s best performance! I personally prefer the live version at Milton Keynes 1982 which is more powerful (if that’s even possible). Then there’s young Freddie live at Hammersmith & his vocals are completely unleashed! BRILLIANT SONG!!

This group is fabulous.

Queen created beautiful harmonies in the studios, but their live performances were on another level. They all were masters of their instruments. Freddie mentioned in an interview: „For Somebody To Love, we had the same 3 people singing on the big choir section, but I think it had a different kind of technical approach because it was a gospel way of singing - which was different to us. That track was me going a bit mad. I just wanted to write something in the Aretha Franklin kind of mode. I was inspired by the gospel approach she had on her earlier albums. Although it might sound like the same approach on the harmonies, it is very different in the studio because it’s a different range.”

We kidded bout Freddie when I was a kid, but as I grew up, I had to recognize. Dude was one of the best vocalists in Rock history and his band was incredible. God bless you, Brother. Keep rocking and loving life

Perfect example of why 70’s music is AMAZING!! Write, arrange, play music and sing WITHOUT computers! True artists!

Something I find interesting the more I think about it. I just assumed that anyone over the age of 30 was very familiar with Queen. I assumed that because I was raised listening to Queen music in the house by my parents. It’s neat to experience this with you AB. Thank you for taking us on this journey. What music did you have playing in the house growing up?

You will never hear anyone better than Freddie Mercury- before auto tune- all raw talent- especially LIVE!! Queen- Look up Queen singing in 8D!! You think they are stomping inside your head-

👏👏👏👏🤟🤟🤟!!! Go FREDDY!! He's a LEGEND!!💝💝🥰

Like everyone else said- the live Montreal performance is the one you should do next (💜 that “outfit” from Freddie). After that work your way through the Live Aid set list. So you are fully prepared to react to Live Aid. Set list- Bohemian Rhapsody Radio GaGa Hammer to fall Crazy little thing called love We will Rock You We are the Champions. As always, this was a GREAT reaction! Edit: If I remember correctly you told another subscriber that you know We will Rock you/We are the Champions. You just didn’t know they were by Queen. So that means you are only three reactions away from knowing the entire set list. I’m so exited about that!

Freddie, Brian and Roger did the back vocals added John on last backing vocals

Great reaction! More Queen please thx

This a studio video with some shots from live shows. Freddie Mercury lead singer, piano and guitar. Brian May, lead guitar, keyboards, vocals. Roger Taylor, drums and vocals. They say he hits those dog whistle notes. John Deacon bass guitar and some vocals, but he has said he can't sing.

Heros get remembered, but LEGENDS never die....RIP Freddie 🙏 Freddie Mercury (vocals) John Deacon (Bass) Brian May (guitar) Roger Taylor (Drums) All sing too...amazing!!! Listen to Freddie sing Barcelona, Radio Ga Ga

congrats on new equipment. Freddie Mercury is Queen.

The backup singers are: Brian May - lead guitarist, Roger Taylor - drummer and John Deacon - bass guitarist. Queen did it all themselves...... All 4 band members were exceptional musicians....... exceptional vocalists (except John) ...... and exceptional songwriters. Each of the 4 wrote some of the bands #1 hits - the only band that can claim that !!!! And they were all very highly educated: Freddie - graphic design, Brian May - astrophysicist, Roger Taylor - biology, John Deacon - electronics. The original 4 member of Queen were together for 20 years ........ from 1971 until Freddie's tragic death from AIDS in 1991. You have a long Queen journey ahead of you....... 20 years of Queen greatness..... Enjoy !!! And... you'll never get bored. Queen could sing any genre and they always surprised everyone with each of their albums and songs. And... they were even better live than in the studio...... Enjoy !!!

The live performance is amazing but this studio performance shows the talent...one mic ...one ..perfect unison . Shows what went into recording in the good old days ...just 4 dudes making the most incredible sounds ...no auto tune ..no special effects ..no costumes or dancers ...just queen. .

Queen’s 1985 LIVE AID concert. Legendary performance.

We are the Champions,Another one bites the dust, so many

He has passed away but what a talent he had!

Must be seen LIVE !! No contest 👍

I love both this and the live version immensely. Both are fantastic. Great reactions

If you want sheer "show-offery" from Freddie give "The Great Pretender" a listen. Pure Freddie.

The studio version is great, but you must see the live version from 1981 in Montreal!! Mind blowing!!! Freddie is the ultimate performer and Queen is arguably the BEST live band ever. Their live performances are insane.

Backup singers are his bandmate Freddy Mecury was a hell of a performer

I started listening to you today. I watched you cover 2 Righteous Brothers songs and a couple from Queen. I wanted you to know, I am a white man and I thoroughly enjoy your facial expressions when you hear something you love. I am from that era of Queen and also listened to many older entertainers from the 60's on up. Hearing Unchained Melody from the Righteous Brothers brought to mind a vocalist from a period of the mid 80's (perhaps earlier) Aaron Neville. I thought he was the one who invented that style of "crooning", but it seems I was wrong. Thank you for bringing this amazing music to light for the younger generations! Keep doing what you do, Sir!

Your next QUEEN should be Queen Live Aid the full 20 minutes! It will blow you away! GREATEST PERFORMANCE OF ALL TIME!!! ❤️❤️❤️🙏🥰

They are all legends Freddie is immortal

The more Queen the more I love

Those “background vocalists” are the drummer and guitar players!! Wonderfully talented group

Brian May CBE is the lead guitarist, has a beautiful voice and fun fact, is also an astrophysicist. Roger Taylor OBE is the drummer(also has an absolutely seraphic voice-check it out when he does "Under Pressure" with Adam Lambert). John Deacon is the Bassist, and retired after Freddie's passing. They all have beautiful voices that harmonise well together. If you've not seen it, I highly recommend you watch Queen's Live Aid performance. It's quite possibly the most perfect live performance ever, from the timing, sound, vocals, everything.

Those super high notes in the background are from the drummer.

Great Reaction & I agree w/Deborah in the comments below! I'm also happy you did the Official Studio Video first. BUT NOW do the same song (trust us, the experience will be so worth it), "Somebody To Love, LIVE IN MONTREAL1981" version! In it, you'll see the power of Queen, and Freddie Mercury, live performances even better than the studio!.

The whole rainbow concert is worth listening to. The sound is great

Freddie had 4 extra teeth that caused his over bite and refused to have them pulled as he thought it would alter his voice. He also had a large upper pallet which allowed him to have the best singing range ever. He was also classically. Freddie was a once in a lifetime phenomenon that will never be replicated. I absolutely loved this group and was fortunate to grow up with them in the 70’s and 80’s.

" Love of my Life"💗

I think the videos are best to watch as they change it up so much in a live concert. 👍 but this is a blast of a song in real version. When he hits that high note..OMG.I LOVE YOU DOING THE FREDDY!😂 keep up the songs and laughs. New fan here. 😊

Greatest band of all time.

Queen 😍😍😍😍😍😍 they're the Simply Made of orange juice I'd also recommend "We are the Champions" and "We Will Rock You" - those are two I'd bet you've heard before!

There's only one Freddie... but for another amazing version of this song, check out Jordan Smith's Voice performance. It was live, with a choir, and is widely considered the the most EPIC Voice performance ever.

They met in university. And the guitarist who had you um-ing and ah-ing is also a world-renowned ASTRO PHYSIST...um and ah INDEED. The drummer does most if the falsettos too.

Please please do anything/everything LIVE by Queen. This song live in Montreal will blow you away.

you always do great reactions, but this one was a Triple Threat ❣️1. the leotard 2. juice boxes 3. area 51. man, you're 😘

Live version of this song! Montreal 1981! Pleaseeee

If you're going down the Queen rabbit hole, I'm coming! They are mindblowing live. One Vision alive at Wembley 1986. There's a great medley beginning with In the Lap of The Gods right after that, sequeing into Seven Seas of Rhye and finishing with Tear It Up! Practically anything from that concert is awwesome, but Freddie really gets the crowd going with Another One Bites the Dust! BTW, all four band members wrote #1 hits!

This is Freddie's Tribute to Aretha Franklin. He adored her.

Nice reaction. Freddie Mercury lead singer and pianist, Brian May guitar and vocals, Roger Taylor drums and vocals and John Deacon Bass and some vocals.

every member of this band has a voice in Queen

Great reaction! Legendary Band!

Welcome to Freddy Land... We've been waiting for you ❤️

You really can't go wrong with Queen. Just so you know. They are one band that is generally really good or better live. ❤✌

. Please fall down the rabbit hole of Freddie Mercury and queen. That man had such great range and was so creative I know you would love his stuff.

Love Queen! Omg, just the songs are amazing and the lyrics just wow. Go listen to Jeff Lynn's ELO, any of the songs, they are all fantastic.

Anyway you can make it where we can see your cute smile too? Thank you for all the great content. My life is crap right now and watching your videos brings a smile even thru tears. Thank you. 💜

You can throw a dart at Queen's catalog & you'll choose a great song. Some standard songs that you need to acquaint yourself with, though: "We Will Rock You", "Another One Bites the Dust" and "We are the Champions"

Oooooweeeeee! Pass that orange juice!!!!

Freddie was a king

I'm happy to see you drop your jaw now and then and forget that it is not your show - well it is - but you are a reactor not a co-performer. That is when I know that something really blew your mind.

Me again.😬 I just want to say I really like how much you are enjoying these songs.

One study on Freddie's vocal range even confirmed that he was able to vary from about 92.2 Hz to 784 Hz, meaning he was reliably able to hit notes from the booming low of F#2 to the high pitch G5 - that covers a full three octaves!

Check out their performance in Live Aid. Terrific!

Queen must be enjoyed in headphones or a car stereo so you can hear them standing in front, beside, and behind you!

You should hear the songs he did with Montserrat Caballé. She was an amazing opera singer. Those are probably my favorite❤❤

Love listening to you ❤ !!

Freddie was the best front man ever. The voice the moves and his ability to grab the audience and keep them memorized.

Queen was fabulous. Brian May, the guitarist, is not just a guitar player but a literal Astrophysicist!!

Or "Under Pressure" it was a big hit!

Great reaction to QUEEN orange juice

Queen and Phil Collins, two of my favorite groups/people. I raised my daughter on 1970's to 1980's groups and people. Amazing what was old is now new. I enjoy bands and individuals who can SING in person, not have to prance around on stage with background dancers, and who are nice people. Compare Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody with Pentatonix's version. Brian May, the guitarist for Queen, heard it and gave them his blessing.

If you really want to have the queen experience you should watch the live aid queen section. This little section is still considered today the best live performance of all time and of every musicians, not only by queen fans. It's only 20 minutes long but you won't forget it.

You need to react to Queen’s Live Aid performance from July1985. Greatest live performance of all time !

The story behind this recording is awesome....how many times Freddie made everyone do hundreds of overdubs for it. It's just the 4 of them.

After you've done Somebody to Love Live in Montreal, you have to do White Queen Live at the Hammersmith Odeon 1975!! Your ears will thank you!
