Well that's a new one! I am going with Queen's "A Winter'sTale" if my exit is during the Fall-Winter. Still working on the Spring -Summer selection...and I am of that same generation but found Queen late in life. Even bettter now.

Queen is NEVER over rated. The are one of THE best bands to ever grace this earth.

Your generation has no idea what it missed out on by being deprived of the opportunity to see Queen with Freddie live. Absolutely incredible! For a completely different Queen, that you would never in a zillion years guess who it was simply by hearing the song, check out their song 39 (that’s the title - 39). Super catchy tune that will stay in your head all day. Once you hear it you will HAVE to hear it again, and I guarantee that in your “alone” time you will play it two or three times in a row!

His generation is my generation and I have absolutely no idea how he's never heard this before. I'm a 90s kid and was brought up listening to the oldies and legends. This generation is the start of the earth's self-appocolytic event... How he knows that was Howard Stern definitely tells you he's heard this before.

You can’t say you’ve even touched Queen until you listen to the entire 22 minutes from Live Aid. It’s been said to be one of the greatest performances ever

The guitarist is Dr. Brian May. He’s also an astrophysicist. Fun fact, he designed and built his guitar.

In my opinion, the greatest rock band ever.

A song that always me happy. One of so many greats from probably the best band ever.

More than 40 years passed, but it's still the song which improves your mood instantly. It just makes you feel happy.

This song was featured in one of the most hilarious zombie cult classics 👉 “Shaun Of The Dead”. 🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️. The song continues to be featured in various media, commercials, TV shows, & film. 🎥Awesome!!! Thank you for the reaction!

I can’t count on two hands how many times I’ve seen this exact reaction to this song. One of those songs that never fail get get people moving and excited.

One of my favorite Queen songs. Great reaction Mr Duffy.

What a lovely reaction! I was lucky enough to meet Freddie in London before he was famous and can say that he was indeed an exceptionally bright and beautiful spirit, though here with us on Earth for but a short time. Although I never followed Queen's career over the years, he remains in my heart, as a precious memory. Brian (the guitarist, whose natural corkscrew locks are now snowy white) has said he always feels torn with this song, because he felt perhaps they (he and the other members of the band) should have tried to protect Freddie better during a period when he was possibly going a bit overboard in celebrating his long-suppressed sexuality, which may have been a factor in his HIV/AIDS illness and premature death. I think this song coincides with that exhilarating period of self discovery and freedom before it all came crashing down. Although supposedly scientifically proven to be the 'happiest song' ever it's bittersweet for me, too, for that same reason. If you haven't already seen them, I'd recommend White Queen, Live at the Odeon, Hammersmith, and Somebody To Love, Live at Montreal, 1981 - and, of course, Queen's famous Live Aid set at Wembley from 1985 (make sure you get the proper video that doesn't cut out before the end). Or, for something more intimate, try You Take My Breath Away, Live at Hyde Park, 1975(?) or My Melancholy Blues, Houston (date???). Oh, and then there's their Top of the Pops performance of their first really big hit, Killer Queen, with Freddie having fun camping it up in a second-hand fur coat...

Howard Stern? That is Dr. Brian May, an Astrophysicist and guitar virtuoso. yes, he has a PhD is astrophysics. All 4 of them have college degrees. No other band can say that all the band members have a degree.

The man you keep referring to as Howard Stern happens to be Sir Dr Brian May. He is brilliant man with an IQ of 180. There are two songs I am requesting please. You Take My Breath Away the official video, it has beautiful harmonies that is all Freddie layering his vocals, and Who Wants To Live Forever Live at Wembley 1986, you will hear the beauty and power in Freddie’s voice. They are thee best live band ever.

Queen was the best band EVER, and Freddie was a magical being.

🤣🤣🤣 “Howard Stern sure can play the freakin’ guitar!” 🤣🤣🤣 (Actually, Brian May was recently interviewed by Howard Stern… about the fact that Brian had just been voted BEST GUITARIST (ever!) by Guitar World magazine.)

The guitar/ vocal crossover is a motif from the blues called 'call and response.' You will hear it in lots of songs Ac/Dc use it all the time!

You have to check out their performance at “Live Aid “ from 1985 ! Seriously one of the best rock performances of all time . ✌️

they knew how to play them instruments back in our days,

You have just barely got a toe wet in the Queen catalog. There are over 200 songs for you to review with different live versions of the same song. You will totally enjoy Barcelona and Who Wants to Live Forever, live at Budapest.

This song was voted the best song to listen to in your car, it just makes you haapy.

"Howard Stern" is actually Brian May, PhD - rock legend, legendary guitarist, PhD on Astrophysics.

Amazing to see people hear and discover the Genius of a song like this by Queen. When I was rocking to it in the 80's people called me a queer.

Try Hyde Park 1976 Every Breath You Take and White Queen live at Hammersmith Odeon 1975. Other greats: Spread Your Wings, Play The Game, One Year Of Love, Death on Two Legs (the ultimate angry at the Thieving managers song)

Another happy Queen song, (that doesn’t get much attention, but is really fun) is “Seaside Rendezvous”. Please react to that one. 💕💜💕💜💕💜

I love watching young people react to songs like we did when we were young. Still love the music.

You and your mayo in the background crack me up. You’re so excited!

One of my favorite Queen songs!! So uplifting!

Howard Stern? His name is Brian May & he ROCKS!!!

This son was written by bassist John Deacon. It’s been voted the most feel good song. Brian May built that guitar, called The Red Special. All band members have degrees in higher education

You had to be there in 70s and 80s to see Queen. Brian May is an underrated genius guitarist. Enjoy yourself watching them. Amazing rock band with amazing songs and sadly missrd singer RIP Freddie Mercury.

Your reactions to queen are spot on. Your exuberance is infectious!!!

It seems like he gave you his energy, mate. Amazing song and band, bro. Awesome reaction 👍👍👍

You've got the best of Freddie's voice at this time of his career, he had a few problems towards the end, but still good.

Rated the happiest song. I cannot believe you never heard this song before. 💕

I just loved to see you get as enthusiastic as me more than 30 years ago. This is not my favourite song, but yes, put Freddie in front of a piano and sure as hell you won’t be disappointed. Yes Brian May CAN play a guitar. And write a thesis about astrophysics too. Those 4 were magical together, and I deeply regret that I was to young to see them onstage, Freddie passed away when I was in middle school, not very long after I really started to listen to them.

That was thing about Queen. Brian May (guitar), and Roger Taylor (drums) also had solo careers so they could really sing. If you only gone into Queen 5 or 6 songs you haven’t even scratched the surface. Brian & Roger are still playing concerts as Queen & Adam Lambert. You spoke about movie soundtracks, they did the songs for Flash Gordon & Highlander. I loved your reaction. I will be subscribing.

It's Brian May that's playing the guitar. And he made his own guitars and he asked. He's A astro physicist

Most people have no idea that the Guitarist Brian May @3:28 co-founded Queen with Freddie Mercury and went on to become a well-known Astrophysicist and was eventually Knighted. He has gone on to perform with Adam Lambert and Lady Gaga.

Howard Stern on guitar...lol. DO NOT under any circumstances say that to a girl, unless you enjoy getting your face smacked 😉🎶🎵💚

the best band ever !!!

The guitarists is Brian May not Howard Stern. But I 'm glad you enjoyed. Glad you are now a"Queenie"and there is so much more to blow your mind.

This song lifts anyone's spirits!

Wow ...loved your Prospective on Queen as a Group, Well Said

😂 I know lol it's incredibly how queen could almost make songs feel like somehow you're flying around buildings or just soaring through the sky!

One of the few songs we hear John singing!!

Liar from 1974 .. Live at the Rainbow .... is also a early masterpiece.

Love this song.always makes me happy and you have to move to it. This is in simon pegg's first film of his cornetto trilogy.shaun of the dead.the other two being hot fuzz and world's end. There's a scene in shaun of the dead when the group are in the Winchester pub surrounded by zombies the jukebox starts playing this song which attracts the now zombie pub manager.they have to fight him with snooker cues.

Actually one of the best uses of this song is in a really crazy movie called "Hardcore Henry" near the end,. Gotta watch it!

The best Queen song 🎉❤ … and my son and his mates claim it too

Hey from Germany . That was a really strong reaction . But I love this song and I can understand it . If you listen behind the lines then you know what was going on in Freddie

FYI Brian May The guitarist uses a sixpence ( a british coin) as a pick . . Its about the size of a i think a dime or nickle . . . He says it gives a "brighter" sound . . .

I am a simple, old man with a strange kind of (german) humor, but: Reacting to Queen while wearing a King shirt ... epic! XD My favourite lyric part of this song is: "... passing by like Lady Godiva", because I know who "Lady Godiva" was! ;) Anyway: Can't wait for your next Queen reaction. There are still a bunch of epic songs for you to discover! Makes me kind of jealous ... *lol

If this song doesn't elevate your mood, you need therapy and serious meds. Thank you for a great reaction.

you're becoming a really fan!! Wellcome Michael!!

It's the closing song in the movie Bohemian Rhapsody

This song was voted the happiest song in the world by scientists at the University of Missouri.

Speaking of hearing this song in a movie.. watch Shawn of the Dead….

I would say Brian May is the greatest guitarist of all times he is incredible but Queen was also the greatest band of all times but I grew up with Queen they were brilliant. uk uk uk

Love,love,love your reaction ❤

I think you'd get a Kick out of "Breakthru "...possibility 😊

Great reaction!! Other Queen Suggestions: - Innuendo (a very deep song) - Another one bites the dust (very rhythmic) - Who wants to live forever/official video (a sad and beautiful song) - Somebody to love /official video (amazing voices) - I want it all (very strong) - Save me - A kind of magic - Its a hard life ¡Saludos, desde Argentina!

This song gives me life! One of the greatest!

I really like all your reacts to queen, you're so cute (don't worry i can tell you that, I am 60 )

Astro physicist with a doctorate to back it up, guitarist Brian May.

Samsung uses that song in their commercial.

Duuuude.... that Howard Stern reference 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

"Queen" and "overrated" do not ever belong in the same sentence. Fun fact: this song was actually a filler to complete an album -- and like everything Queen touched, became a masterpiece!

QUEEN LO MAXIMO

I love your videos, so much fun to see a young person discover good music. I'm 63 and discovering new (to me) music every day. I haven't had time to check out all your videos yet but if you haven't heard the Carpenters do Superstar or A Song For You try them out. Also, Adam Lambert's version of Believe that made Cher cry (watch Cher's first).

Love this song!!! 😀

What the heck, dude the lead guitarist isn't Howard Stern, that's Brian May!

So I guess genuine reactions doesn't put food on the table anymore
