Before I began performing the music of Queen in 2012 - incredibly - I had never heard this song. After a few shows with the Queen Extravaganza, though, and absorbing the song’s cadence, it quickly became one of my favorites to perform - not only because of its breathtaking classical intricacy, but also for the way it arrests the audience’s attention every. single. time. in a way that no other Queen song seems to do. The song recently took on new meaning for me when someone (and I regrettably forget who) told me that Fred wrote it from the perspective of Mary Austin, as an empathetic love letter, fully aware of the toll their relationship had on her. I don’t know if that’s true, but it makes the lyric so much heavier for me.
When I picture the quintessential “young Freddie,” this is the voice I hear in my head. The fragility and vulnerability he displayed in the original recording of “Love Of My Life” is astounding. He was truly fearless in displaying his feminine side, which is maybe the most important thing I learned from him as a singer. As a musical product of early 90s grunge, I came up with the impression that masculinity must always sound deep and guttural, something my vocal cords never allowed me to do very convincingly. I cringe a bit when I listen to my early recordings! I was always a little shy about the fact that I could sing very softly and breathy - almost like a girl. I guess you could say Freddie gave me permission to let that side of my voice out into the open, and to embrace it.
I always dedicate this one to his memory because it feels like the appropriate thing to do. It always seems like the perfect moment in a set list of bombastic anthems to pause, and truly take into account the singular talent that was Freddie Mercury.
(S/O to Brandon Ethridge for the inspiration behind incorporating the guitar parts into the piano arrangement. Brilliant! Check out his hilarious music-geek KZread series "WHERE'S THE F-ing BEAT?!?")

@@pixiesolowing I'd say the reverse, in that Marc doesn't have a strong bass sound to his vocal, so it's difficult for him to match Freddie's "live" tone or the "power" he had in the early 80s. I think of Marc's tone as "brighter" (and he nails that softer sound that Freddie used a lot in recordings) compared to Freddie's "sharper" tone, if that makes any sense.

fun fact for those of you who dont know : they actually mixed a lot of marc’s vocals into the Bohemian Rhapsody film when rami had to do the live performances. queen doesnt overlook marc. in fact there was an interview that brian and roger did praising him about how thankful they were that he was able to do the film and contribute his vocals and how they “just can’t not use marc martel”. i feel the only reason why he isnt used in queen as the lead vocalist is because he sounds almost exactly like freddie, which isnt a bad thing at all. but i think it’d be too much of a shock to the bandmates while performing and even the crowd. trust me, if i went to a queen concert and marc was singing id lose my marbles.

I respect your opinion but there's more than that. First off, Brian May loves Adam like his own child. Lambert was already chosen before Marc joined Queen Extravaganza(tribute band of Queen formed by Roger Taylor). Also at the beginning of Queen Extravaganza, Brian and Roger didn't even knew thar Marc can handle the entire show alone. There were 3 to 4 singers at the beginning. And when they realized that, I guess it was already 2016. They probably weren't aware that Martel has won 2 Canadian Grammy awards and 5 Junos awards. And now today, Queen has been touring with Lambert for like 8 years now and they dont want to tour with anyone else. But common, Marc deserves to sing with Queen at least once. He has worked his ass off carrying the legacy of Queen music and spreading it to the young ones out there. As you said, he even provide some vocals for the movie.

Hi! I'd rather see a Queen concert with Adam than Marc. Here's why First of all, you are right. Marc Sang once with Brian and Rog and they were left in shock. But the special thing Adam has is: His own style. If they got Marc into a tour, it would be sort of "replacing" Freddie with a "copy". Marc has worked a lot to keep Queen Alive and that is awesome. He bought tears to my eyes in every Queen video.
There's no one in this world that can exactly like Freddie..BUT Marc can!!!..Bravo Marc!!..👍🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🎼
Bravo! Love it! Wow his side view he holds his mouth the same way as Freddie. Plus his lower teeth is like Freddies. His face structure resembles! Freddie.
After Freddie's death I couldn't believe that one day someone will come and sing almost identical as him. This is by far the best interpretation and it will stay like that.

Queen has said they will never perform with anyone that sounds like Freddie Mercury, as they would not be able to subject themselves to hours of emotional pain. However, Queen Extravaganza is no longer touring. They stopped in 2016. Marc now performs with another tribute band called The Ultimate Queen Celebration. They are currently touring the US. theultimatequeencelebration.com/shows Marc also contributed a few vocal recordings to the Queen Biopic "Bohemian Rhapsody", but to what extent is unknown.

you sound like Freddie mercury😍 I almost cry when i hear your voice😢
I would die happy seeing you sing on stage with Brian May, Roger Taylor, and John Deacon . What a spectacle it would be to witness that 👌

Unfortunately, Deacon is playing the UK's longest game of Hide and Seek - which is fair enough. He did what he wanted to do and it's not fair on him to pull him back into the fray unnecessarily.

@@bexmjt10 If you refer to the Bohemian Rhapsody movie, Rami Malek only provided voice for speaking parts, singing parts are mixture of recordings of Freddie Mercury and Marc Martel actually. I believe Rami Malek did try to sing some, but that didn't actually make it into the movie, or the singing was more like humming actually.

Dumb comment. Freddie said in his interview that he couldn't even remember the lyrics here and there, he sang the song based on his mood. The lyrics have changed over the years. How it's supposed to sing was never his preference. He performed different versions several times. There was nothing like how it's supposed to be. Adam never offered to sing this song. Brian May has. So sick of ppl who couldn't research more about the band they like.

This is his natural voice😊 Even before he knows who Freddie Mercury was, people would tell him that his voice sounded like Freddie's. Amazing right? He's not trying to imitate him, he's just now a huge fan of Queen who enjoys singing Queen's music. I went to the tribute concert a couple of days ago and he was such a humble person enjoying Queen's music with all of us. He told us "that's what's music is all about" (enjoying). It was awesome!!!
