The Spanish guitar interlude was played by Steve Howe of "Yes". Each band member was portrayed as an art work by their favorite artist. Freddie says "Don't take offence at my innuendo". He is criticizing the human race for war, hatred, false religion and terrible things we have done....but says we have to "keep on trying". "You can be anything you want to be." Scenes in the video show both the joy and the evil of humanity. He also asks a higher being if he exists to "answer our questions, to show yourself, destroy our fears and remove your mask". Why are you waiting when we suffer and want answers? This is no light, fluffy song but sung by someone facing death. At the end of the video, all the doors and curtains close on his life.

Best rock band everrr

“Innuendo” is the opening track and lead single of Queen’s final album before Freddie Mercury’s death. The song, partially inspired by Led Zeppelin’s song Kashmir as well as Freddie’s illness, deals with mankind’s inability to live with each other and constant search for meaning. The song began as a jam session in Switzerland amongst Brian May, Roger Taylor, and John Deacon in the spring of 1989. “These Are the Days of Our Lives” is Innuendo‘s most significant single, given that it was released on Mercury’s 45th birthday, and that its video marked the last time his fans were able to see the singer alive, as it was filmed in May of ’91 during the final stages of his battle with AIDS. A ballad in the vein of “Love of My Life,” it was a song that carried a significant amount of weight given the frailty of Mercury’s appearance in the black-and-white video, later compounded when unreleased color footage from the filming emerged in Days of Our Lives. “The sicker he got, the more he seemed he needed to record,” explains Roger Taylor in the documentary. “To give himself something to do, some sort of reason to get up, so he would come in whenever he could. So really, it was quite a period of fairly intense work.” After seeing how well-received Innuendo was in its first two weeks out, Mercury pressed the band to strike while the iron was hot and work on new material. “Freddie at the time said, ‘Write me stuff, I know I don’t have very long,'” May proclaimed in Days of Our Lives. “‘Keep writing me words, keep giving me things, I will sing, I will sing. And then you do what you like with it afterwards and finish it off.'”

OMG... I didn't know he kept recording. I knew "These Are the Days of Our Lives" was his last video recording.... and that song, and especially the video, absolutely wreck me. RIP Mr Mercury!

'Innuendo' (1991) was the final studio record completed by Queen during Freddy Mercury's life... that record and the previous one in 1989 ('The Miracle') were written & recorded after Freddie was diagnosed w/ AIDS and he (and the band) knew that he was going to pass away... According to the members of Queen, they had 1 conversation and Freddie basically hinted that he was HIV positive and asked that they not discuss it any further and carry on making music for as long as they could. Only the band, their managers and Freddie's partner and ex-gf knew. So, Queen closed ranks and worked... denied in public the rumors that Freddie was sick... but declined to tour. They still denied the truth to everyone, even after Freddie past partners were dying from AIDS. The songs came out darker and more introspective in light of what the band knew... didn't have the levity of past Queen records. Brian May recalled that Freddie could not work for long in the studio... so the songs took time to complete, but Freddie still got on the mic and pushed himself to sing to his limits. Even after 'Innuendo' was done, Freddie put down vocals for songs he asked Queen to complete after he was gone... Those tracks made the final Queen studio album 'Made in heaven' in 1995. By the time 'Innuendo' was released, Freddie was frail and appeared in the music video for 'These are the days of our lives' and that was his last appearance on film... the rest of the videos were made w/ older Queen footage. By the fall of 1991, Freddie Mercury was in poor health and returned to England to his estate... Just before he died in late 1991, he released a statement admitting that he had AIDS. The lyrics to the song 'The show must go on' were very powerful in the way it closed the 'Innuendo' album.

Innuendo was an event when it was released in late 1990. It was advertised in advance and was first broadcast simultaneously around the world when it was released. It was like a movie and it took our breath away. Everyone I knew said at the time that Innuendo was the equal of Bohemian Rhapsody and perhaps even better. None of us knew at the time that Freddie Mercury was dying of AIDS at the time and the song connected with that. The song completely matched up to the event it was built up to be - and it was stunning!

Steve played the chromatic runs and the (exceptional) flourishes on the flamenco section, but most of the solo was still Brian (both the 'acoustic' and the 'electric' bits).

The song, partially inspired by Led Zeppelin’s song Kashmir as well as Freddie’s illness, deals with mankind’s inability to live with each other and constant search for meaning. It is sort of a modern piece of rock opera that seems to be Queen's '90s answer to Bohemian Rhapsody, I think the main idea in this song is about doing one's best - "we'll keep on trying, 'til the end of time". The song began as a jam session in Switzerland amongst Brian, Roger, and John in the spring of 1989. Freddie's vocals are immense as ever, Roger's drumming will focus you instantly, John is reliable as ever, and Brian's guitar work is impeccable (the initial Spanish guitar solo is by guest guitarist, Steve Howe, which Brian repeats later) - to pick a particular star in this song would be unfair - everybody shines.

The band now uses the music from this song as the lead up to their first song in concert. Queen is not the same without Freddie Mercury but their choice as Adam Lambert as their front man is a good one. He definitely has the showmanship and range to sing the songs. Queen's catalog is notoriously difficult to sing and Adam has never tried to be a replacement but celebrates him in every show. I hope they make another North American tour before Brian and Roger decide to retire. Brian has had health issues over the past couple of years but still puts on an amazing performance.

I remember the first time I heard the song "Innuendo" my freshman year in college. It grabbed me right away. The album is one of the most underrated in Queen's catalog, but I think it's their strongest work since the album "The Works." Lots of deep songs on this album, considering Freddie's diagnosis like "The Show Must Go On," "All God's People," "Don't Try So Hard." Even the goofy song "Delilah" is poignant, with Freddie saying goodbye to his cats.

Might be my fav by them. So much packed into one song.

it is a 90's song that has its routes in the 70's. Very retrospective and utterly brilliant. One of their greatest compositions

Freddie is on his way out and he can put out vocals like this. 👍

A different Queen great showing the genius of Mercury and the rest of the band

"Another one bites the dust" & "We will rock you" & "We are the champions" & "Crazy little thing called love" "Radio ga ga, etc, etc, etc, so many great tunes! ❤️😍👍🇬🇧

Please do Jerry Duecette I know several people will not know this artist but it is a great song."

When I first heard this, I wasn't keen because it felt like Queen were trying to do another Bohemian Rhapsody, but then I found out how ill Freddie was at the time and realised it was a reflection of what was going through his mind and how he was seeing the world for what it was, and how people should never allow themselves to be controlled by the evil powers that be. I also love Heaven For Everyone written by Roger Taylor for his own solo album, with Freddie intended on guest vocals, but they also recorded Freddie doing a lead version which ended up on the Made In Heaven album 4 years after he died. When you hear the lyrics, you feel that it could so easily have been written by Freddie and how, because of his illness, he was noticing the things that really mattered in the world .

My absolute favorite Queen song and album! Also, if you liked the Nuevo Flamenco guitar solo, take a listen to Zagros by Strunz & Farah.

At this point, the band knew this would be Freddie’s last album; on some songs, he could only sing a phrase at a time before he had to rest. So I think they put everything they had into it. Not every song is serious-there are some real rockers here and some silliness too-but “Innuendo” is a serious take about issues that meant something to the the band.

Thanks for this reaction. It was nice to watch the song trickling through your head, and of course, still left you with some question marks. To me, this is one of Queen's masterpieces. Indeed intense and powerful lyrics with a sort of heaviness to them. Quite normal when one of the writers is facing his own “'til the end of time”. Yet the lyrics are hopeful and carry a message: “You can be anything you want to be. Just turn yourself into anything you think that you could ever be. Be free with your tempo.

This song was never played by Queen live in concert. Freddy was so sick at the time of recording that Brian thought that he would have to take over lead vocals. But, as the story goes, Freddy climbed out of his sick bed, drank most of a bottle of Vodka, then recorded the song almost in one go. Just a few tidy ups. This is one of my favourite Queen songs. To get an idea of how Freddy looked towards the end, watch "These are the days of our lives". It was Freddy's goodbye song to the world. One you know that and gaze on how he looked, it will bring tears to your eyes. Another song where Freddy was beginning to "show" the effects of Aids was "I'm going slightly Mad". So Freddy and the others dressed up and wore tons of makeup to protect Freddy. He simply loved the craziness of the song.

All I have to say is WOW!!!

"If there's a God or any kind of justice under the sky. if there's a point, if there's a reason to live or die. If there's an answer to the questions we feel bound to ask, show yourself, destroy our fears,release you mask!" powerful lyrics.

You should listen to "These Are the Days of Our Lives ". It's on the Innuendo album as well and is just beautiful. Even more heartbreaking knowing Freddie wrote it as he knew he would die soon because he was so sick at the time.

You can’t listen to this without acknowledging the hat tip Queen gives to Led Zeppelin, as the beginning is heavily inspired by Kashmir. Freddie’s vocals even have a Plant-esque sound. A lot of singers could mimic or imitate Plant, but Freddie let you know what he was doing, but still made it his own. Rip Merc!

This is from the last Queen album before Freddie's death, released only a few months prior. It is a bit of an odd song, and album for that matter. Then again I suppose realizing that you don't have much time left will make you quite introspective. Innuendo is a truly great album, from the title track to "I'm Going Slightly Mad", to "These Are The Days Of Our Lives" and finishing with "The Show Must Go On".

Awesome!! Love Queen!! Try “Amie” by Pure Prairie League!!!🤘🔥

You two should react to the Queen song.... NO ONE BUT YOU (ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG). This was John Decans last songs with Queen before he retired. it is a great tribute song.

Just my opinion....but I don't think they are ready for it yet. They need to learn more Queen before doing the "finale"

@@nanner3200 As any reactor learns its about the discovery of the music not the time when the music came out. They don't start of listening to the very first tune the group did. It's the discovery of music so I think they will appreciate the group as a whole more by reacting to this song now rather than saving it for the end. Let them discover the musical talents of all the members of the band.

@@clarkcraig6959 I get that. I'm not saying to save it for the very last Queen song. That would be months of 3 Queen songs a day. My meaning was to get the full impact of that song. The real full impact is when you have an investment in the band and their music. I'm not saying they aren't fans I'm saying they have only done a few songs. Not even sure if they know anyone's name besides Freddie. Let them get more into the band. This is going to sound weird but I don't know how else to say it. It's kind of like going to a funeral of someone you don't really know. I follow a reactor who had done over 216 Queen songs. He himself says he's not ready for the last 2.

No 2 Queen songs sound alike and that's what makes them the G.O.A.T! Just scratching the surface of this Beautiful Rabbit Hole!

What's amazing is that Freddie knew he was dying and he gave it his all that was left in him.

The guitar bridge is actually a fandango….with claymation Scaramouches….from Bohemian Rhapsody

I have never heard this one. Great to be introduced!

Freddie is one of a kind with the voice of an angel 😇 💗

Absolutely my favourite Queen's song.

I think this is the first time Ive seen this song's music video. Ive heard this song millions of time and still enjoyed it.

To make one incredible epic like Bohemian Rhapsody is one thing, to make two is simply insane levels of talent.

"Keep Yourself Alive", first song on their first album is a rockin' must listen.

I have loved many of their songs. For some reason this one speaks to my soul.

As a small child I remember the movie Flash Gordon, Queen did all the music. They also did the music for the film The Highlander, the album is called Princes of The Universe. Great songs like, Princes of the Universe, Who Wants To Live Forever, I Want The Prize. Great album and great movie.

Редкие люди,которые вникают в смысл этой вещи. Спасибо,Вам...

My 2 favourite Queen songs are "Who Wants To Live Forever" & "The Show Must Go On". You will love them both.

The great Steve Howe (from Yes)guesting on Spanish guitar in the middle

Their best song period. And a real jewel.

Freddie's opus, his grand farewell. I love this song.
