You became more and more amazed as the song went on and you could hear what an amazing instrument Freddie's voice was. In fact, look up greatest voices of all time (not specifically rock) just all and he is ranked at or near the top in any ranking you'll find. Rock on man.

Little fun fact about freddie and your comment about being a rockstar. Before freddie teamed up with roger and Brian (drummer, guitar) he use to tell everyone he was going to be a rockstar someday. In the documentary I saw about queen, an old acquaintance of Freddie's said that one day he ran into freddie looking all sad. So he asks freddie what's wrong. Freddie's head was hanging low and he said "I'm not going to be a rockstar someday". Before the other guy could console him he said freddie sat up straight and lifted his head and said "I'm not going to be a rockstar. I'm going to be a legend!!!!" 😎😂 Bohemian rhapsody Montreal live is amazing like the others said on here. I think "death on 2 legs" lyric video is epic and worth checking out. Not the live one. One with lyrics. They wrote and dedicated the song to their asshole manager they had fired. He was hoarding the money queen was bringing in. They were raking in the cash and only getting a small stipend. They didnt hold back exactly how they felt about the manager at all in it. I almost felt sorry for the guy. Almost. Lol. Brutal. 😂🤣

Great react! It always means more when someone with your singing and drumming talents enjoys this so much. Freddie and Queen did a W I D E variety of songs. My favorite rock number is Another One Bites the Dust, live at Wembley, where Freddie also throws in a little scat singing, the song you just did above, from Montreal; also Hyde Park 1976 You Take My Breath Away, live, simply and stunningly beautiful, just Freddie and piano. You should also enjoy the three songs here in the Barcelona set that he did with famous Spanish opera soprano Montserrat Caballe (one song sung partly in Japanese, Freddie singing in Spanish with her). I just bought the CD and would HIGHLY recommend it to opera fans, Freddie fans, and anyone in between. The music on it is MAGNIFICENT! Put on your best headphones and turn up the volume.
