"Freddie got me flustered." I love it lol! Freddie makes me cry when I hear his music. His voice cuts right through to my soul. He is dearly missed.

Live aid concert, you won't be disappointed

Heineken should pay Queen for that product placement, which is absolutely PRICELESS.

To me, Freddie's voice is the best in the world

Roger Taylor's drumming and background vocals are epic. I'm so glad this is on film for future generations to enjoy.

Roger was fantastic at picking up the vocals and helping Freddy out when he needed. Definitely underrated.

Freddie is, was, and will always be THE BEST SINGER, FRONT MAN OF ALL TIME!!! I'm so blessed to have been alive thru their career! The best group of all time!! Journey is a close second... but Queen and Freddie will never fall from #1

I saw Queen several times beginning in 1975, NOBODY will ever be better live. Freddie will be forever unmatched. John, Roger, Brian and Freddie are all legends of Queen.

Check out the live version of Save Me. Freddie will break your heart with every note. Also he and Brian (the guitarist ) switch off playing piano

NOW you understand why the studio version is a must before the live! Please remember that the vocals live were just them. No other background singers, no autotune nothing but talent! Great reaction and remember that this journey has only begun!

Just think that was Live in Concert!!! 60's 70's & 80's was The Best Time for MUSIC. Bohemian Rhapsody was done by Freddie Mercury the Genius of Music

If you loved that performance you, definitely, need to check out their “Live Aid” performance! It’s AMAZING! Freddie Mercury and Queen are unmatched to this day. Adam Lambert has done Freddie some justice while touring with the band, but there will NEVER be another singer/performer like Freddie Mercury. He was a one off that can be imitated, but never recreated. The mold was broken with him; and I think that’s a good thing.

Freddie is a force of nature! Ready Freddie!

I have gone back to watch your reaction a few times! For the performance and your reaction! This concert was in 1981, but you and your followers can view the entire concert from 1986, the last time Queen performed there. I was not far away from the stage! Unforgettable show too!

Incredible when you realize this live performance was 40 years ago!!! They sounded amazing!!!

The movie is about Queen, but take it with a grain of salt…not all true to actually how their lives were. Great reaction!

What you need to listen to is Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballé singing Barcelona!!!! AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGGG. gives me chills EVERY TIME!!!!! His voice 😍❤️👏🏻💕

Freedie was a beast! The talent in one human is crazy! God broke the mold after Freddie.

Freddie was a freaking Genius

Truly all any of us are looking for. Somebody to love & to love us back.

Freddie was the greatest showman to ever Grace a stage! 😊❤

one of the coolest things is that if you LIKE a Queen song (studio version), you'll probably LOVE the same Queen song (live version). And, if you love the "live' version, you can watch many of them from several concerts because each is a different experience! No cookie-cutter performances. Super talented musicians and a mesmerizing lead singer! (The best). Have fun!

That's the magic of Queen, every song, every performance is a journey. Their albums should come with a seatbelt warning.

lol - yeah, Bohemian Rhapsody film is about Freddie, and Queen. It's fun to watch, as long as you don't believe it is a documentary. Because it's not, it's a Hollywood film - so stuff is out of context, time frames moved around, characters are molded to fit the plot. It's more of a vibe. Still very entertaining and won lots of awards.

It was a fun movie, some truths and quite a few liberties taken with the truth. But a great sound track. And if there is one take away from the movie, it's how wonderful the Live Aid performance was, and how every video reactor should do it. It gives them an understanding how versatile Queen were, and how interactive they were with the audience.

LOL...... welcome to the wonderful world of Freddie, Brian, Roger and John........ 4 of the best musicians....ever !! Queen's live performances were legendary. The studio versions are amazing. And... best of all..... they sang every kind of song imaginable. They always liked to surprise people...... You have 20 years of Queen's albums, singles, videos and live performances to enjoy. These 4 were together for 20 years..... 1971 until Freddie's early death in 1991. Best band EVER !!! Enjoy the journey.......... :-)

Queen has such a presence! I remember watching a video of a crowd waiting for a concert to start, not even a Queen concert. They were playing music before the start just recorded music and one of the songs was Bohemian Rhapsody but it was only the instrumental. I kid you not, the entire crowd sang the whole song, not missing a single word. Queen changed the world with their music and we lost Freddy Mercury way too soon! One of the very few artists that sound better live than in a recording.

"This is the best live performance I've ever seen anywhere".... THAT'S ALWAYS QUEEN & FREDDIE, so PREPARE YOURSELF FOR A LOT OF "BEST LIVE PERFORMANCE" EXPERIENCES!

Queen and Freddie can't be beat. They are the Greatest.

Love Freddie and Queen they are without peer!

I was a teenager when all this wonderfulness was happening song after song after song...

What is better than🔥? Queen RAW 🎶 on stage. YES SIR.

I listen Queen abaut 30 year's, and he is such legend.We love you Freddie.R.I.P. LEGEND❤️❤️❤️

Queen changed music for so many young people across the world. They were fabulous. Their music will always rock. Totally awesome band

That performance was 40 years ago. 40. And new generations discover Queen decade after decade. Still relevant. Timeless talent. Rock on!

Queen never sounded exactly like their studio recording...they wanted to entertain and put on a show and always gave it their all. Fredddie wrote this song which was inspired by Arteha Franklin,, the queen of soul. Live performances show Freddie's showmanship skills. React to more live songs: NOW I'M HERE, tTIE YOUR MOTHER DOWN, IT'S A KIND OF MAGIC live at Wembley and PLAY THE GAME , live in Montreal or at Milton Keynes - all are fire because Queen is considered the best live band of all time.

I am more and more in love 🥰 with QUEEN

EXACTLY its like He ZAPS your energy!!! FREDDIE OMGGG BEST BEST EVER!!!! RIP FREDDIE WE MISS YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Live Queen is always great.

He'd have some vodka for performances and then the tea with honey during them. I've seen the piano like that in videos of rehearsals or "the making of" videos.

I adore Queen live! You get to see one of, if not the, greatest showman ever. Set aside 20 minutes for their Live Aid performance. It is considered the most iconic rock performances ever. Brian May, the guitarist, put a link to the Pentatonix cover of Bohemian Rhapsody in his Twitter.

This is outstanding, I am so glad you got to experience this. Another live masterpiece is Queen: White Queen live at Odeon, Hammersmith 1975 absolutely mind blowing performance. To hear the opposite side of Freddie's voice to the live song you just experienced today you need to listen to You Take My Breath Away, live at Hyde Park. Both of these are masterpieces. I don't think there is a live Queen performance that I don't love, to be perfectly honest. The band was all about giving the audience the best experience they could ever imagine and Queen always delivered. Thank you for reacting to this outstanding performance. Now go and listen to it again and this time, also keep your eye and ear on Roger Taylor (drummer) because he is singing his lungs out back there throughout the entire song and still slammin' those skins. The movie Bohemian Rhapsody is about Freddie and it is a very good movie but bear in mind when you watch it that it is a movie and not a documentary. The chronology is not correct and some of the "facts" are not really factual. It is a movie so they had to jam 20 years into two hours. Do watch the movie, and do enjoy the movie but don't accept it as a correct depiction of the band or the timeline on Freddie's life. Tomorrow (Nov 24th) will be 30 years since we lost Freddie Mercury, the legend of legends. I miss him and his music every day.

Empty world without Freddie 💔

I saw them in 1978, the vibe was Incredible!!!!

The collective of the Queen fandom agrees😄

Queen studio versions are perfection and detailed, but live Queen is energy and passion. Both superb in their own ways! There is also a big difference in '70's Queen and '80's Queen. Personally, I think Freddie's voice got better as he aged.

Freddie Mercury was the ultimate performer and singer!

One. Of the top bands I love the 80s and 90s!

😂😂😂😳😳 see? We told ya!! Freddie is the most amazing singer of Rock history! Watch The movie- mostly about Freddie. Watch the Live Aid performance- geez- it’s been told to be the best rock performance in history- I’m so happy you’ve found Queen!! Now go down the Queen rabbit hole and I’ll watch you every time! And 200 or so songs later- 💛💛

Freddie was also a smoker like most if not all were in the early '80's. I was and I was 11 in 1981!!! I'm always reminded of the sad thought that Brian May (guitarist) has repeated often in interviews that had Freddie had been diagnosed only one year later than he was, he likely would have lived because of the advancements in medications and therapies to fight HIV/AIDS.

Queen ALWAYS BETTER LIVE!!

What a great reaction to this epic performance! ❤👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Live Aid performance at Wembley Stadium is also fire! Thank you AB.

Crazy good music from the 80's

Beyond fire? This is hotter than the big bang. OMG indeed.

You're right that is the greatest live performance did I ever heard awesome

We are not worthy, but we are so lucky for having Queen's music.

What your eyes behold has been managed by an artist trained musician, Freddie Mercury. That is, the cups, containers on the piano must reflect 'this is a rock n' roll concert' - Concert goers believe it! Freddie is mostly sipping a honey lemon concoction. Gotta aim to keep his throat hydrated for up to 2 hrs of perfection.

Love his knocked it out of the park moment at the end♥️

I was happy for you and me that at the end of the day you got it!

I think it's wonderful that you have great respect for everyone you listen to. I have respect for you.

And there are so many to listen to. Makes me feel great.

No auto tune here just pure talent

Listen to Save Me live Montreal 1981. Brian the guitarist plays piano then Freddie takes over and Brian switches to his guitar. Four talented musicians the best ever live. Saw them twice. This tour The Game 1980 and Hot Space 1982.

Queen,Queen,Queen, how wonderful. To hear them sing,(Some Body To Love).

Your making me realize how lucky I was to have seen Queen and Freddy Mercury twice in the 70"s. He was such an incredible showman! There will never be another like him.

i was at Live Aid In Philly and they stopped all the acts on stage at that time (saw U2 as well...and met Bono in NYC) and all the GIANT TV screens around the Stadium showed this performance...LEGENDARY ~!

Right?! Nothing like Freddie and Queen! ❤️

Amen my man. Simply the best

IT'S CALLED TALENT....

That's Live Aid... if you want to see an AMAZING LIVE PERFORMANCE THAT'S THE ONE

Yep!! Bohemian Rhapsody is about Queen as a band, but has a heavy focus on Freddie Mercury!! I’ve mentioned it in a comment before, but my all time favorite Queen performance - and arguably their best ever - is their 1985 concert for Live Aid. Every. Single. Performance. Was. Iconic. Freddie Mercury sang and interacted with the crowd so well, there was a point where he was singing notes for the crowd to mimic - one of those was nicknamed ‘The Note Heard ‘Round the World’ (Aaaaaaay-O!!) There will never be a day when I don’t yell about it, and you should definitely react to the live aid concert soon!!!

Freddie puts on a Master class how to hold down a crowd. Once you work through the major hits, watch the Live Aide, you talking about eating out of the hand. He was a maestro......he can play a lot of instruments, but his favorite instrument is the crowd. Yes they did a movie on Queen called Bohemian Rhapsody.........Remi Malek did Freddie justice for sure. The first thing they actually filmed for that movie was the Live Aide performance.

Welcome as long as check out Queen n Freddie there fans will check you out ♾️👑💯💞💞😘🥰🌹

Freddie Mercury maybe the greatest male vocalist ever ! EVER !

I haven’t seen you react to any Johnny Cash songs, so didn’t have that forum to make a comment. He’s another voice that can be, somewhat, imitated but will NEVER be duplicated or replicated. He’s another one-of-a-kind, beautiful voice that’ll never come around again.

Actually. Freddie drank tea with honey to help his voice. He thought that alcohol would be a negative to his performance. ❤
