My father was a stern military man, who had no time for rock music, or an youth culture, and was scornful of "those musicians with their long hair, who need to get a real job". One day he went to a colleagues' funeral. This song was played. My father was absolutely blown away by it, and stopped off at a store on the way home to enquire about it, and subsequently bought the album A Day at the Races. My father lived another 32 years after that, but this was the only record he owned that was not military bands. I heard it frequently, when he thought nobody else was home. He has passed now, but this song always reminds me of him.

Queen never was just a rock band. Even when they started off that way, they were an acorn heading up to their eventual status as a magnificent thing of unparalleled glory. Even your dad was no match for them! :)

Tu padre desde el cielo seguirá escuchando ese CD de QUEEN y cuidandote todos los días de tu vida hasta que te reecuentres con él en un lugar donde reina la paz, a diferencia del mundo en que vivimos.... Muy conmovedora tu historia. Gracias por compartir este tipo de emociones... Saludos desde Perú!

How special can a nation be, when one of the greatest bands ever wrote a song entirely for you. Japanese people: Arigatou! for your behaviour all the time, your hospitality and correct manners. You are an example for all the nations in the world. They can learn a thing or two from you.

I love the audience members who look to be old enough to have seen Queen in the beginning. Their weeping moves me as much as this song does.

俺は今猛烈に感動している

This drove me to tears. Really, crying like a baby. Not only because of the immense power that music has, which moves the audience to sing together because of the love they have for an artist (which in turn was the reason Queen wrote this song) but also because Brian is so pure-hearted, showing the most beautiful feelings an artist can have and because of the bittersweet moment he has, missing Freddie and playing to very dedicated fans.

How can anyone not love this? I wish he'd sung longer. Beautiful!

クイーンは本当に素晴らしい

It's been 40 year since 1974 with Freddie now 2014 came back to Japan. Queen forever 😘

Makes me cry..... remembering our beloved Freddie...., 💔💔💔💔 Brian you're amazing indeed... thanks for all you have been makes to preserve Queen’s name!!! Love you!! 🥰🥰, love Queen forever..., and I love Freddie as well... always!!

i love how brian harmonizes himself with the crowd!

my whole body got goosebumps watching this

My eyes started to tear when brian started singing the chorus then to Japanese chorus I was also sing but water was rolling down my eyes. I learn new Japanese words from this song. I sang this song twice yesterday and its 5:31am. I know should be in bed. When Brian said the first time they came to Japan, I said to my self "when Freddie was alive" I'm from Australia and I learn new languages from Queen like Las palabras de Amos, rendezvous, Teo torriate knomama iko, aisuhrito yo, shizukana yo ini hikario tomoshi, itoshiki oshieo idaki(sorry if I spelt it wrong) and Hungarian of a video I saw Freddie singing a Hungarian lullaby

今年のライブこれ聞いて大号泣した

ブライアンのヴォーカルもまた素晴らしい。 名曲。

Absolutely brilliant performance Brian but also tinged with sadness seeing you up there on your own when this segment was usually just you and Freddie x

Absolutely beautiful.

The glint in her eyes at 3:47 is priceless.

Волшебная композиция , спасибо уважаемому Брайану , .....но Фредди и только Фредди исполнял ее божественно , до мурашек и трепета каждой клеточки ❤🙏❤

This song is the best. Beautiful.

Loved the song before...never heard my Brian sing it...tears rolling down my cheeks 💜👑

One of the most beautiful Queen song ❤️

Tear drops as I listen to this song. The lyrics is so beautiful.

サビがほんとに泣ける

It brought a tear in my eye.... beautiful

Meu sonho era conhecer Brian May, poder tirar uma foto, dar um abraço nessa figura iconica, falar o quanto eu gosto do Queen. Vejo nele a figura de um avô bacana, de alguém muito bacana.

Beautiful see when he was singing with the crowd he pulled his harmonies down it blended in perfect! ❤️❤️❤️

Japanese audience: the best!

One of.the most beautiful Queen songs!

Brian May's voice is superb!

Brian May 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 What a hauntingly beautiful voice & great musician, writer of beautiful songs. This is but one of the reasons Queen was so good - they could all sing & write great songs!!

Thank you,Brian From Japan

I wish i was born i japan nd would have seen queen live.Oh japanese r so lucky.

A classic anthem!!!

I sang this song almost 20 years ago in a bar here in my brazil, in the town I lived... its very hard for me, since Im a baritone... I love this. first time hearing Brian singing this..... Queen, Guns and Angra are my favorite bands. thanx so much for the awesome songs! I love Queen and I love you all

This was the most beautiful song Brian ever wrote

the emotions between the Japanese crowd and Brian singing are unbelievable .... it is a pity that not the enire song is sung. It is so beautiful and full of emotions ....

I broke down crying

This is the Best ever❤

Such a beautiful song. How Brian can be so faithful. The English lyrics fits Japanese like melody part or vice versa. Queen is the living legend..Genius

アコギ1本でこんな演奏されたら クイーンファンで泣かない人はいないよ…

Grandissimo Brian!in momenti come questi si può dire che la magia dei Queen e di Freddie sia ancora viva!

Unglaublich wie wunderbar Völkerverständigung mit Musik funktioniert. Danke Freddie, danke Queen!

When I'm gone No need to wonder if I ever think of you The same moon shines The same wind blows For both of us, and time is but a paper moon Be not gone Though I'm gone It's just as though I hold the flower that touches you A new life grows The blossom knows There's no one else could warm my heart as much as you Be not gone Let us cling together as the years go by Oh my love, my love In the quiet of the night Let our candle always burn Let us never lose the lessons we have learned 手を取り合って このままでいこう 愛する人よ 静かな宵に 光を灯し 愛しき教えを抱き Hear my song Still think of me the way you've come to think of me The nights grow long But dreams live on Just close your pretty eyes, and you can be with me Dream on 手を取り合って このままでいこう 愛する人よ 静かな宵に 光を灯し 愛しき教えを抱き When I'm gone They'll say we're all fools, and we don't understand Oh, be strong Don't turn your heart We're all You're all For all For always Let us cling together as the years go by Oh my love, my love In the quiet of the night Let our candle always burn Let us never lose the lessons we have learned

what a lovely song, queen always had a way of sharing emotion through music

Desde joven me pareció Hermosa esta música, y ver a esa señora emocionada cantando algo que tal ves formo parte de su juventud, hace suponer que Queen sera eterno.

Qué hermosa voz y gran interpretación de Brian! Me encantó!!! 😍😍😍

Wow that gave me so much chills

So emotional, Brings me to tears.
