Hello, I hope you read this although I think my comment could get a little big. Even if it is big just read this first sentence. So Your Reaction was great I loved it. I'll write all the Band members and what they do and some extra stuff I hope it'll help you a little. (I finished this comment now and of course it got big but if you Really want to get knowledge about Queen then read this 😅) Freddie Mercury: Lead Singer, Plays Piano, Greatest Front man on earth. (he is not the Leader of the Band, they don't like to have a Leader and Freddie himself also said that.) Brian May: Lead Guitarist, Background Singer (he also sings sometimes Lead) he is also an astrophysicist. Brian Build his Guitar with his Dad when he was 16, his Guitar is pretty Special and sounds very different to normal E Guitars. His Guitar is called The Red Special and he still uses that one till today. The Guitar is build out of some random stuff he found at home with his dad. So to that, there was a over 100 year old firewood he said. So His Guitar isn't actually 57 years old, it's even over 100 years old. So The Red Special gives Queen that Special ''Queen Sound''. Roger Taylor: Great Drummer, Background Singer (also sings sometimes Lead) He is the High Singer of the Group, He is a High Tenor and he often did some great Falsettos. (I think the note he actually very often hit was the Note A5). People say he isn't a Good Drummer but I really think they didn't see everything of him. Well yeah so he sings and drums at the same time in the Background. He really is a Great background singer for Freddie because when Freddie needs to catch a breath or forgets the lyrics or something Roger really helps Freddie and of course the same thing just the other way around. (when Roger for example needs to catch breath) Roger said catching the next breath while singing and drumming is the hardest thing for him. So I really respect him, but not just him THE WHOLE BAND IS TOO AWESOME. John Deacon: Bassist, he is the quite guy in Queen, He is an Engineer and he Build Special amps for Brian. He is the only one that doesn't sing but he sung very very Occasionally. All Band members have written more than 1 Number One Hits. All of them can also play Many More instruments but they mostly play it like I have written 👆 They are 4 equal band members in their own right. My experience with Queen... Idk how to explain, but they are such an Legendary Band because they don't stick to One Genre, they already were _everywhere_ but still they are a British Rock Band. They have inspired MANY People, such as the drummer from the Foo Fighters Taylor Hawkins, He also has the name Taylor in it because Roger Taylor (the drummer from Queen 👆) was one of his Role models, Queen also heavily inspired Michael Jackson, for example his performances, his songs, and even his Glove. What also makes them Special is how they create songs and how they Harmonize with their Voices and instruments. Freddie was a really special one, He loved Opera and made an whole album with one of his favorite Opera singers. Freddie can actually sing just as high as Roger but I'll tell it to you like this, since the beginning of Queen Roger always was the One making the high notes and Freddie was just ''figuring out his Voice'' until it became the absolute best. In 1982 Roger lost his Falsettos and it of course was already 9 years since Queens start and Freddie's voice really improved. With that being said after 1982 Freddie was actually the high singer. But no matter if he was the high singer, Roger still sang a bit higher when they still harmonized their voices, Roger is as I said a High Tenor and Freddie is a High Baritone with makes his Voice deeper as rogers. Probably a big reason I love Queen so much is because they are like 4 Solo artists in One band which makes them just the number 1 of bands that could ever existed (of course there are more great bands but I think you get what I'm trying to say) But really I think one of the main things is that Freddie really did sing his butt of till months before his dead. He really loved his Fans and he loved music. He did everything till he couldn't anymore. Here in the Show Must Go On (which is my Favorite Queen Song) you can really hear what a Great singer he is. He couldn't even stand up anymore and he was still singing 1000% better than today's healthy people. Freddie was just one of the Greatest singers. Brian May wrote The Show Must Go On and he wrote it in the situation with Freddie so this was actually about Freddie. Have you ever heard a dying mean making such an Angel High Note ( at 6:33 he hit an D5) and the last thing before I write my last thing is I want to talk about their Voices, Freddie's is really smooth and _GodLike._ Brian's sounds a bit like Freddie's but not that much, he has a nice Voice too but idk how to really explain. Roger has a Rock Raspy Voice but his Falsetto's sound Angelic. So the Last thing I want to say is that if you heard We Will Rock You and think that is something special from Queen... it is not. Imo it is not even catchy. It repeats itself and has a short guitar solo. They could have done so much better than that, But they actually have 😂 They have a Fast Version of the song. AND THAT Really fixes everything for me so please react to _1. We Will Rock You (fast version) - Queen Live in Montreal 1981 [1080p HD Blu-Ray Mux]._ Just a reminder please give it up for the Whole band and not just Freddie. You already did it right but I just wanted to remind 😅 They have tooooo many great songs. Just One thing from them doesn't help to understand them. You will get A LOT of request to many stuff from them. I think for the start I said everything that had to be said. Sorry again for this big text.

Please React to Queen,White Queen Live at the Hammersmith Odeon 1975. Absolutely Spine Tingling!

the QUEEN catalogue is huge. you´ll arguably find their core/best studiowork inbetween 1975 and 1978 and their greatest live-performances in the 80ies. start with: 1) Somebody to love (live montreal 1981) 2) Queen Live at Live Aid 1985 (full 20 minutes). if you want it rougher, look for "gimme the prize", "sheer heart attack" and "tie your mother down"

My dad was and is a huge Queen fan. I remember growing up listening to Queen. Although I was 5 when Freddie died, I remember being so sad that I was never going to be able to experience them live. But to this day ( I’m 33) I listen to Queen every day. My favourite album is A Night at the Opera

Great reaction!!! We love you to start the Queen journey. They were so diverse, and still being loved after so many years. I always loved Queen, but most the popular songs. Through the movie Bohemian Rhapsody I discovered Queen all over again and more. They have an impressive and amazing catalogue❤ Much Love and bless for your wife and a big hug from the Netherlands.

I did a reaction to Queen - Somebody to Love (Love in Montreal) this afternoon and I don't know what it is but I was fighting back tears... again. I was watching a group absolutely crush a song and it just makes me sad... sad that the will never get to perform again. Freddie was one hell of a musician. I have some other reactions to edit before that one but I am pumped to get to it. Thank you for your time and just know that I appreciate your comment. I appreciate you 🙌✌

not better than most, better than ALL

Yes, I'm requesting this song as well.

The Wembly 86 version is a good one.

That song Life is Beautiful but the video is absolutely out of this world because Brian is singing in the video as well.

Most emotional and epic song of Queen in my opinion, it slowly became my favorite Queen song and song in general. I hope he does it!

Yes absolutely, my personal favourite of there’s.

One other great guitar player who's friends with Brian May (I think it was Eddie Van Halen, but I'm not sure) said once, he switched guitars with Brian, but when they played Brian still sounded like typical Brian (even with the different guitar) and he still sounded like himself and not like the typical Queen guitar sound. So there's probably more to it than the Red Special and the Deacy Amps alone. :-)

@@mori1bund rip eddie

@@ianwakers yes! It was Steve Vai. He said, he can imitate every other guitarist with the exception of Brian May. ^^

Don't forget he also uses a British sixpence coin in place of a guitar pick giving it an extra unique sound.

Oh my God, I am already old and have been a Queen lover since my youth. And never knew all those spectaculer details of Brian' unic sound and guittar. Thank you very much for sharing with us.

it was not one take

They had to prop him up when he was singing “those are the days of our lives”, Which was the last song he ever did. Also check out “ I am going slightly mad” You can also check out the last album he was on, “made in heaven”

As someone who likes Russia a lot, the Vodka thing made me smile. If I had been there, I will have shouted ДА БЛЯТЬ ТЫ ЭТО ДЕЛАЕШЬ! (Indeed you FUCKING do it!)

@@roverwaters3875 the high note was one take

@@dianedent5564: ''Those are the days of our lives'' was not the last song he did. The last ever song he recorded was ''Mother Love'', and that song he couldn't completed, because his illness. Brian May sang the last couplet!!!

The guy oozed talent... thank you for your time :)

Lauren Raubaugh ... dear Lauren.., nothing else to say.... just that I love and admired Freddie’s courage to face his illness... and the way he try to gave us all his music... !! 💔💔💔💔

:'(

Just a slight correction, this song was recorded about a year before he died.

Freddie always said that they were four quarters of a whole, and that that was their strength. How right he was.

Hello @Anja Teich!! I hope that you are doing well and staying healthy!! This song gets better and better each time I listen to it!! Lots of love for you... appreciate all your support ✌💥😊

@@DannymikReacts Since you say you're a metalhead, and since some say that Queen didn't know how to rock hard, you might well enjoy "Sheer Heart Attack", "Stone Cold Crazy", and "Hitman". I recommend all of them. Queen made an enormous song catalogue, they could and did do anything and everything. "The Show Must Go On" is from their last album made while Freddie was still living - Innuendo - a masterpiece of an album. You're starting at the end. Innuendo was the next-to-last album. Their final album was "Made in Heaven". Freddie died in 1991. Deacon, May and Taylor, still grieving, reconvened in the studio in 1994 to work with vocals Freddie had laid down prior to his death, the resultant Made in Heaven album becoming probably the best-crafted bow-out by a band ever. (Best to leave that album for after you've gotten to know the band and their life trajectories.)

The fact that he barely made it through this one as he knew his life was ending soon is chilling to me. The more I learn about Queen the more I respect what they did. Thank you for the view and I hope you guys don't mind if I react to more of their music. Have a great day 👏✌

Queen continues to tour the world for the past seven plus years with Adam Lambert as front man prior to that a couple of other singers but the tours of Queen never stopped. They continue to have standing room only concerts across the world.

Hello @Lars Pallesen! I do NOT want to mess around when it comes to Queen. People absolutely love this band so there's no games here... actually, I take all my reactions fairly serious and give the viewers an honest bit of feedback. Glad you clicked on this one... thank you and I hope you are doing okay 💥✌👏

Perhaps instead of "a guitarist", they said, Brian May, Astrophysicist and guitarist...". Yeah, not many of those. I've been a fan since 1975, and this song has and always will gut me.

Agree!!!! Brian May is a rock hero. I felt a bit insulted by speaker “one of Freddie Mercury’s guitarists”;

This is outrageous. It's unfair.

Great choices! I would love to see more reactions from Queen's debut album It was a great album.

MFK has some of my favorite musicality to it. The outro to that song is my all time favorite.

**Zenobia** nice to see you here, dear Zenobia !!! Big hugs and kisses to you from Chile 🇨🇱

Ricamros - Barcelona is awesome but How Can I Go On with Montsy also is out of this world

@@MargotRecabarren Big kisses to you as well, sweet Margot!

Please do the live version of it, live from Wembley in 1986

Oli Lewis That’s one of my favorites!

I just recorded Somebody to Love (live) and these guys just melt my soul (when reacting to them)... such an amazing group. Thank you for your time ✌🙌

Absolutely agree. Thank you both.

absolutely because Queen live in Montreal or any other live show somebody to love is absolutely out of this world!!

Agree, listens to their live concert all the time during my work out and before going to bed. This is so addictive😊🤗 and Freddie's voice it's amazingly good..and very angelic..👍👍Big fan...

Live Aid

Montreal 81’ fave queen concert ever along with Wembley

Yes! Their live shows are still amazing all these years later. Freddie was the consummate performer and would control the audience. I hope to see more Queen reacts!

Thank you so much for the kind words... my wife is really a great person. It's been tough on her but she's holding it together. Appreciate the view and comment 😎✌

Movie is shit

Right! I learned that he downed some vodka and did what he does best... very impressive! Thank you for the view and comment ✌🤘😎

This is a GREAT somment... I love it! Thank you for popping over to check this one out 😎✌

You say 30 years... damn time flew by us. I remember some AIDS concert (that was HUGE) way back when I was a teen. Thanks for taking a little time and checking this one out!

That doesn't surprise me at all. Freddie was a perfectionist and must've knew that he had it in him to nail it. I love learning more about this band from all you who love Queen. Thank you for your time :)

I so glad that you liked the song and found it interesting to watch my reaction. Freddie Mercury is an icon and I want to learn more about him and the band Queen. Thank you and please stay safe ✌😊

Leona Vanderkruk I would add the 1974 live at the Rainbow, especially if you like hard rock & metal ( Stone ColdCrazy & Liar) and also 1975 live at Odeon-Hammersmith (White Queen)

Music nowadays is just NOT good. Marc Martel does a great job covering Freddie but he's not "The Man". This was so enjoyable to watch and react to... Queen is the real deal!! Thank you so much for the view and comment :)

Thanks so much.. my wife really is a special person (hence marrying her 😉). I'm glad that you enjoyed this one. I was really excited to get it edited and up on KZfaq... so much potential to dive into with a band like Queen. Hope to chat with you in the future. Please stay safe and remain healthy ✌😊

Hello @83greent! As long as their music is safe to react to I can GUARANTEE going on a journey to explore more of their music. I respect talent and everything I HAVE heard from this band has been very solid. This song gets better and better with each listen. I'm a bit older than you and am weak with classic rock. However, Queen is a mix of that genre and the 80s.... the movie Flash Gordon was done by Queen and I LOVE that soundtrack (as I show my nerdy side 😊😂). Hope you're doing well and staying healthy... thanks for the view & comment ✌👊

And by the way, I rotate my reactions since I cover a good amount of bands these days. The next reaction I'll be uploading soon features one of the best singers in the world covering this song as a tribute to Freddie Mercury. I'm excited to edit that one here in the next few days 😊

DannymikReacts Appreciate that. I’m now a subscriber. Would recommend the live performance of somebody to love at Montreal 1981. I’m certain you can react to that video as there are hundreds of reactions to it online. After Freddie hits the final big note just appreciate the musical talent of the band in the last minute of the performance.

Hello Frankie Bones!!! It could be because we are a couple of metalheads who were somewhat away from music like Queen. I was all about the heavy stuff and some hip-hop when I grew up and Queen was alright, but just not what I was craving. However, I LOVE the Flash Gordon soundtrack.... go figure! Thank you for all the awesome support and thanks for the livestream earlier today... good times!! Stay healthy Bruh 👊💥🤘

@@DannymikReacts Queen actually does have a lot of metal, or proto metal songs. In their early days (first 3 albums) they were known as a heavy metal band. They were compared with Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin. Queen is generally credited with creating the first trash metal songs, Stone cold Crazy kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ip6CmcVir9rRmZc.html or Ogre Battle kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a5thmrV5mMqrdXk.html. I suggest you check out this live performance, it is two song mashed together Son & Daughter and Modern Times Rock 'n Roll from Queen's debut album kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bMyVhMyhrd6XiJs.html. You can definitely hear somewhat of a Black Sabbath vibe. Queen experiment with a lot of genres but they went back to their heavier sound for their last 3 albums. Lead guitarist Brian May is a fan of metal, he and Tony Iommi have been close friends for years. A lot of metalheads do like Queen because Queen could be very metal at times. Queen is not strict about copyright, but it is a good idea to stop the video one or twice.

Wow! That is something that you'll never ever forget... what an experience! Thank you for your time 🙌👏

He also died while making it(told them he had to take a break and went home) so Brian had to sing the last verse.

it was his last performance...

Bobbi Lee he passed away before he could complete the vocal part so Brian May had to sing the last verse of Mother Love.

That note in the bridge gives me chills every single time. How Freddie sung that in the condition he was in we will never know.

Ever watched the official video for the song Tom? Adds atmosphere to a song already brimming with meaning (and has Brian’s influence all over it)

Awesome... then I'm glad that you got to see me react to this one. I have a ton of Queen to check out and that's very exciting! I appreciate the kind words as we ALL try to get through this. Thank you and stay safe ✌😊

mori1bund Good recommendations for him!

What about Brighton Rock, Father to son, Sheer Heart Attack, Modern times Rock n Roll, Dead on time, Death on two legs, Ride the wild wind, headlong, Hammer to fall (head bangers mix) White Man....lol there are lots more rockin tracks! You have excellent taste by the way.

Yes it is... and I can't help but have that thought about how he's not with us anymore. Thanks for checking this out and for the comment ✌👏
