(almost) 61 here. Normally I like "songs" but there are only a couple of bands that I'll watch anything they have online. Queen is one of them.

"I am Connor MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod. I was born in 1518 in the village of Glenfinnan on the shores of Loch Shiel. And I am immortal."

Everyone’s got their problems !

Written by Brian May, specifically for the “Highlander” movie soundtrack... an absolutely stunning song, perfect for its section of the movie. Brian’s intro and his part of the middle exchange with Freddie - very beautifully sung. And of course, Freddie’s powerful, passionate voice raised this song to sheer epic beauty. This song as well as the others Queen made for “Highlander “ were featured on Queen’s 12th studio album, A Kind of Magic.

Was that Deaky playing the white double bass? There was never a proper shot of his face.

@@janettesinclair6279 yes it was... ! I have photos and gifs saved in my phone from the day the video was filmed. Of course he was actually mimicking playing... while he does know how to play double-bass, I don’t think he does in “orchestral style” with a bow ( he was self-taught for the studio version of ‘39, which is a totally different, finger-plucked style)

@@imweakfordeaky They are all so multi-talented, and produced such stunning works. I am about the same age, slightly younger than Freddie, slightly older than Brian, but I have only just discovered the amazing collection of music that Queen produced (thanks to lockdown). I must have been under a rock since the 1970's!

If Freddie in a Tux doing 'big' songs is your thing, He and Montserrat Caballé banging out 'Barcelona' might interest you

This is a must! His talent had no bounds. RIP...will be missed forever!

I know that I am repeating myself but Freddie + opera singer (Montserrat Caballe) + tux 😉 = Barcelona. It is worth everything.

The theme song to Highlander, I love it.

If you're prepared for another weepy emotional song by Queen I'd recommend "These are the days of our lives" - one of Freddie's last songs. Though it wasn't written by him, it really did seem like Freddie was saying a fond farewell to all his fans and everyone who had loved him. Really poignant and a real heart-grabber. RIP to the immensely talented and utterly unique Mr Mercury.

I remember how I felt when I first heard it. Tears running down my face. So poignant.

I think this is my favorite queen song and I’m a super fan of queen. My mom loved Freddie and raised me on his music. We both sobbed the day he died. She let me stay home from school and just be sad. I was too young to see him live the last time they toured in the US. But at the time no one knew he had aids and he was sick. So my mom was like I will take you next time and there was no next time. My mom still feels bad lol. But I was 9 the last time they toured in US and he died just a few years after. And my mom just thought I was to young to go to a big rock show like that. I had been to concerts but not big giant shows like Queen puts on lol. But I sure wish I could’ve gone. But I’m glad there are so many great live performances they recorded that will live forever.

Yeah, Brian wrote it! They did the soundtrack to Highlander and after Brian saw the scene where Duncan’s wife grew old and died while he stayed young, he basically rushed out with the song complete in his head. And apparently when they came back with the music, it matched up with the scene EXACTLY, no need to cut anything.

Extremes of sadness and joy in one song.

Kind of an ominous song considering the plight Freddie was going through at the time. Check out their version of hammer to fall live it's a great song 🎵 Also only the good die young which Brian, John and Roger released after Freddie passed away. Roger and Brian sing and it's wonderful 😊

hahahaha I love your reactions so MUCH.... THANK YOU for doing these Queen reactions to honor Freddie's anniversary of passing to Heaven. You really should ALSO react to this song LIVE, because (maybe you've already figured this out?) ...Queen's songs are ALWAYS TOTALLY DIFFERENT between the studio versions vs the live versions. (And Fred will leave you SPEECHLESS with this one live.) I know a lot of people are recommending "Barcelona" (Freddie in a tux!)... There is also "The Golden Boy" which is w Montserrat Caballe, too. There is ALSO "Las Palabras De Amor", which I LOVE. (As well as GORGEOUS, mustachioed Fred in his tux). A couple other official music videos that you should put on your list (or have people vote on) are: "The Miracle" and "Breakthru". These are both really HAPPY, upbeat songs/AWESOME videos. ("The Miracle" is actually Brian May's FAV song that Fred wrote... because it is SO hopeful/optimistic, even though Fred was terminally ill at the time that he wrote it.)

Such a beautiful song. Thank you for reacting to it. You are so right. He will forever live through his music. We need to keep his music alive by sharing it with the next generation.

This song was written for the film "Highlander", which has an immortal main character who falls in love and watches the woman he loves grow old and die while he stays the same, never aging, never dying. This song is basically the theme song for that love, for that relationship in the movie. They wrote the entire soundtrack for that film, the album "A Kind of Magic", and the music was later used for Highlander the series as well. Brian wrote this particular song, and of course it allows is to hear his beautiful singing voice, as well, which is quite well suited to ballads like this one.

Hands down one of the most gorgeous songs of all time! You are 100% right that he is immortal because of his amazing music!

as a woman from Scotland I love this song and love the movie

Freddy is one of the Titans of music we would need right now. Prince would be another.

If u react to the movie highlander nothing but queen soundtrack thru out the movie.

This song makes my heart hurt, it's so beautiful -- as is Freddie in a tux. This is a great video and their live version was equally so.

He was at the last stage of his life with aids .. that's why u don't see him up close.. Brian sang first so u don't see how thin and sick he eas😢

I’m a critical care nurse.. and this song will forever remind me of one of my patients, a beautiful 32 yr old young lady.. who died of leukemia on my unit. Jeannie.. I became very close with her and her husband. Sometimes it’s hard to be so close to your patient and their family.. 😐

The words in this song make me sad about Freddie dying so young. And another song called The Show Must Go On is very sad because he didn't feel good but he continued to perform. What a Sad life.

queens soundtrack to highlander made that movie epic to me.

Amen Jayy Queen's music will live forever.

I just love watching each newer generation discovering Freddie and Queen. Yes he will live forever. Brian was lovely in this.

Keep listening to the music and the artists never die.

Highlander🙆 One of my favourite movies. My son is called Connor and my husband is from Scotland😁

Brian’s beautiful voice is a reminder…it took all 4 members to make QUEEN!

I love this song so much. It gets me every time. Ugh so beautifully done.

Thank you so much for doing my favourite Queen song ever!

I think you would love The Miracle💛

God rest his soul

Great song, as usual better with the energy of a live performance. Budapest or Wembley 86.

I know everything about queen since i was a child, and u.s people oh i never heard that before.!!

Why did I click on a reaction to a song that usually makes me cry a little? +1

Your sentiment - that he’s alive through his music - was genuinely moving.

Need to listen to lnnuendo by Queen

Hey Jayy, Again, you MUST react to "Innuendo." 'Cause then you'll REALLY LOVE Queen. AMAZING SONG.

SERIOUSLY! That’s my favorite Queen song and the reactions are always priceless.

you have to imagine in the late 70's and 80's what QUEEN was. And this song that comes out in a little movie "highlander" which speaks of immortal. it gave a different meaning to this beautiful song. Who wouldn't one day imagine living forever?

Great reaction ❤️ please react Queen "Who want to live forever" live in budabest 1986 ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing reaction! I'll be forever thankful for my teacher in music showing us this song in class, 13 years (wtf time!!! THAT long?😩) ago. This was the song, that eventually got me into Queen. I loved it from the first few seconds I heard it that first time and I always will. ❤️

Queen it's a kind of magic ..love that!

Thanx for this...Freddy was absolutely phenomenal. Never will there be another like him

You need to hear/watch Queen . these are the days of our live.

Love all the Highlander related songs...❤️🎶

This song is so good that I get way into it to the point I cry..it's so good

Queen, always fantastic! Freddy, another legend gone too soon. 💔

Barcelona Freddy's Solo album.....The Great Prender....oh my Goodness! gives me chills just like this

When I first heard this, I was mesmerised by Brian's intro, then Freddie came along and swept my heart away.

What a wonderful dramatic performance. Queen was much more than a rock band. They touched so many people with their amazing music. ♥♥🌹🌹UK

A phenomenal song by a phenomenal band.

You need to react to "exercises in free love", it will show Freddie's fantastic vocal range. He is amazing!!!

We gonna live forever cos we never truly die.

I fell in love with Queen after watch the Highlander movie. Freddie has an awesome voice.

The video it's a kind of magic. Thanks for uploading, seems you like queen, rock opera at its best. Mick Thailand

He really never left :-) And his musics gets better and better everyday! :-) This music is from a movie, Highlander, beautifull m,usic, and the clip they made with the movie too... the whole scene is awesome, to cry for. But still, it may says things about two people who cant be together, cos morals, cos family issues, racism, something like Romeo and Julieta too, "theres no time for us, theres no place for us"... he says "us" not "me"... theres a place for him and for his beloved one, but not for both. At least is what i get from the music. If Im not mistaken, the song was written by Brian. They made the video on the London Catedral with 1 thousand candles light on it :O Amazing.

Yes Brian conducted & wrote this beautiful video, just incredible! Listening to Brian sing in the beginning was beautiful, Freddie, just as sensational as ever!! I believe this was played at his funeral RIP Freddie xx

The most tragic song ever. Put into the context of the movie Highlander, it's about an immortal who falls in love with a mortal. Over the years he does not age but watches his wife grow old and die. The pain can't even be imagined, spending a lifetime loving someone only to watch them fade away, knowing you have many lifetimes ahead of you to miss them. The love lasts forever but so does the heartache.

One of my favorite things about The Jayy Show is she takes the time to learn about these performers from all genres and follows the trail of what she likes and loves to gather more experience with her favorites. Then shares them with us. Now, many of us grew up with this music so it's not new, but to watch someone say "Oh My God, did they just do that?" reminds us we grew up with some of the best music of all time....

You know...I found your channel by luck (watching reaction videos, lol) but you are amazing! I love your videos so much...massive fan! I love that you love Queen!

I love this song so much it’s so beautiful and so sad

i saw queen twice in 84 and 86 the best band ever to play on this planet .

Anybody notice Deaky (John Deacon) playing the double bass, Brian jokingly said he should play it in the video, Deaky went out and learned how too play it, the rest of the group couldn't believe when he brought it into the studio and played it perfectly, now that is what you call professionalism......

Here i am! I am the master of your destiny!!

Freddie, Brian and Queen will live forever through the music they left behind. Brian did write this, and showed that he does have a great voice. I've been waiting for someone to react to this Official Video of this song, most reactions are of the live versions which don't have Brian singing. Thanks for the great reaction! ✌️😎

Jayy, I have that same Elvis doll! I've had it for years! 🥰

A sad song beautifully sung by Freddie , who during this time knew he was dying .

His songs were so theatrical so it was no surprise they were on the soundtracks of many movies and featured in Highlander, Flash Gordon and Iron Eagle. I miss him too but loving what Adam Lambert is doing with Queen these days in his honor.

The Best

You have to see the Highlander movie to get the full emotional impact of the song. It’s absolutely brilliant.

"You've got your sheepskins on...& the boots I made for you..." Like a baby. Every time. Kia kaha \m/

True!

I agree that you need to check out Freddie singing opera in his tux in Barcelona!

Who wants to live forever, when LOVE must die!!! If you get a chance, watch "The Highlander"! It will mean even more!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing to say to this one other than 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 there can be only one..there was only..ever one... 😍

Yes! 💜✨✌️✨

I LOVED that!

Sweet jay! You need too please react too Radio Ga Ga & Headlong. 😉❤️🌹

Great reaction Jayy you look great girl.😁

Wonderful reaction

Watch the movie Highlander on your off time , The hero is is Immortall and Queen did the soundtrack .And you were saying every body sings check out 39 off Night at the opera. Brian sings ,My personal fav . LUV

Simply beautiful 🥰

Great reaction. And yes, Freddie will live forever. You really need to listen to some live stuff. They were so much better live. Freddie fed off the energy of the crowd. The better the energy, the better he got. This song live at Budapest or Wembley. Thanks for a great reaction.

Please please please do a live version of the golden boy you will love it ✌🏾✌🏾✌🏾

From the Highlander theme song...!

Literally just said i had no words..but yet..i wanna say more ha... freddie looked amazing in this vid...it musta been so hard... so hard... the whole context of this video is incredible... i dunno if you did it..but look for his last performance... barcelona..its so sad. I wouldn't like to like a vid of you crying..thats not my intention..but seek that barcelona clip out since i know you're a fan now... and enjoy.. cry...

Yeah, Jayy - Brian started.. he has a very good voice (he wrote this song ...) but when Freddie takes over, it's stunning... right? Brian once said that all the band members wanted to sing their own songs... but after a while "we just realized that everything sounds better when Freddie sings it... " lo

Best song

Love me like there's no tomorrow by Freddie Mercury

Freddie may have been right in that he wouldn't make it to old age, & its no surprise, unfortunately, but the world is much the poorer for his passing. RIP Freddie. You live on in your music & in the hearts of your bandmates & fans.

I'm really late watching your reaction to this....hunny you need to watch Freddie sing this live!! You won't be disappointed!!!
