This song was written about the only woman he ever loved😢💔 not for Brian. He left almost everything to her and her child. They lived together for a while and were engaged until she broke it off, telling him she wanted him to be happy even if it wasn't with her. She knew he was Gay long before he would admit it. That is how much she loved him. And he, her.😢😢😢

I think one reason everyone loves him so much is he created memorable songs THAT FOLKS CAN SING ALONG TO!!!!!

Soft beautiful song. An absolute crowd favorite around the world. Even in non-English speaking countries they sing along with this song. Thank you for your reaction.

Brian is one of the best melodic guitarists rock has ever seen. While his physical dexterity is outstanding, his musicianship is mind-blowing. Freddie is Freddie, there will never be another singer like him. Although they weren't in this clip, Queen would not have been rock royalty without Roger and John. Each of the four was a superb musician, and the band was even better than the sum of their talents.

Great comment about Brian’s musicianship 👍

Brian May is an iconic guitarist…my favorite.

Dear Freddie showed us inside his heart.......and we will love him forever for it.

The greatest singer of all time. Freddie Mercury. His music will last forever. He always gave it 1000%. Miss you Freddie❤❤🎤🎤🎵🎵🎸🎸🎶🎶

Those visuals - one man singing against the backdrop of the audience lit in a spotlight, another on a 12 string guitar heard at the back of an arena...magnificent. Glad this may offer calm for any storm you may be fighting.

Everything about this is beautiful. I love watching your reactions to Queen. You are in touch with what makes a person/group magical. Thank you and Queen for brightening my day! Wishing you strength to get through whatever is happening in your life.

This is why, on at least one occasion, when he was asked what he played, Freddie simply replied, "The audience."

Bohemian Rhapsody was a perfect song. I can’t believe how many commentators on this site never heard that song.

Freddie Forever and ever and ever

The most insane thing to me is that Freddie had no formal vocal training. Please check out The Show Must Go On. Freddie was so ill Brian didn’t think he’d be able to sing it yet Freddie knocked back a vodka and nailed it. It has some of the hardest vocals of all their tracks. Also, Barcelona where he duets with Monserrat Cabellé , a famous opera singer. I can’t think of anyone but Freddie who could hold their own on stage with an opera singer like he did. Brian May and Roger Taylor are also really good singers- says a lot when the guitarist and drummer can also sing really well, not many bands like that about!

For me the best singer & guitarist ever ❤🎸🎸

More Queen! Hang in there. This too shall pass.

I just absolutely love this live performance. The 7/12/1986 Wembley concert was fantastic. You should react to the entire concert from the beginning. The way they structured the concert was impressive. They spent a lot of time in strategically playing certain songs at a certain time. The concert just had such a perfect flow. A couple of people did the entire concert in 8 it 9 parts in order without any problems of getting blocked. Queen sold out so fast they had 2 nights in a row at Wembley. The Saturday, 7/12 was the one that had 15 cameras for the DVD. It’s the best of the 2, IMO. The stage was huge. If you thought Freddie ran around at Live Aid, wait until you see this!!! It’s also the first time Freddie had the new “wireless” microphone! The opening of the concert was amazing. Hope you are able to do this. Back to this song. It’s just beautiful and slow songs really showcase Freddie’s incredible voice. He only needed Brian on guitar and 80,000 fans. No one has ever controlled an audience like Freddie. Including the fans in the show was a priority with Queen way back in the 70’s. No other group ever cared to do that. They were first in so many areas. I will never tire hearing that God given voice with a vibrato like no other!

And We Still love you Freddie♥️!!!

There is nothing more beautiful than this song and Freddie Mercury. The crowd is testament to how this song is recieved and beloved. It gives me goosebumps. Miss you Freddie. Xxxxxx

With all the smiling he does you’d never know the painful things going on in his personal life right now, thank you so much for the reaction and I hope everything gets better for you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you very much for your great reactions...please react to "you take my breath away" live at Hyde Park from the 70s...in my opinion this is Freddie's best vocal performance... Just him, his piano and his incredible voice...

You need to see nearly half a million non English speaking Brazilians sing every word in Rock in Rio 1986. Amazing

Freddie just simply is the greatest vocalist ever! “Is This The World We Created was also performed acoustic. Check out the Live Aid and Wembley performances of this song too! Staying Power Live at Milton Keynes and Tie Your Mother Down Live Montreal concert are great also!

You take my breath away great song

I just love your reaction to Queen...Your smile alone just makes me happy when your watching Queen, and Freddy sing...Queen is one of my favorite bands, and to me he had the BEST VOICE EVER!!!

I still miss Freddie. He was a one of a kind.

Freddie was TRULY a very special experience. We, his fans love him and miss him every day so much, Hearing the crowds sing his songs to him at concerts was truly an other worldly experience.

I’m 65, and I remember when I first heard Queen. I ran out and bought that album and so many of their other albums, playing them over and over and over, and realizing how blessed I was to be living through one of the greatest ages of music ever. I enjoyed and was awed by the music as it happened, and realized the world would be listening to it for 50 years into the future and beyond. When I play the music I grew up with, it just never, EVER gets tiresome!

Loved your reaction, thanks! You're going to want to remember this song, the words, and the interaction between Freddie and the audience. It will be important to remember when you eventually watch his last video ever. If you really want to blow your mind, watch this song performed live to a spanish speaking crowd of 250k in Rio in 1985. It's incredible. Hoping things work out the way you want. Stay strong. We got you.

@@c8Lorraine1 he designed the amp that Brian May used, from what I understand. I think what makes Queen unique is that all the members have a spirit of generosity for their audience. They wanted to give the audience the best possible experience, to make them feel like superstars and part of the show. It comes across to all their performances, they are talented of course but they wanted to give to the audience. I don’t know of another band that communicates that as well as Queen does and their music touches my heart and takes me to a beautiful place that no other music ever does.

They love him is an incredibly large understatement. The the entire band, but Freddie could make the guy in the back row feel like he was the only one in the audience, he made sure that the audience were a part of the show and a part of the band for that night.

Best thing about the audience... no cellphones! They listen to what he's singing. I miss that time, miss him. Love Freddy, Love Queen...

i so agree with your comments. Everytime i think of Freddie i could weep. There will never be another Freddie in my opinion.

I love the purity of this song and performance.

Beautiful! The album version is very different. Brian learned to play the harp(!) for the studio version.

Brian was playing a 12 strings guitar and that is not easy. The band liked the singalong songs.

He built his 1st guitar and taught himself to play. Special people. I taught myself to play the piano. It takes time and patience.

There is nobody like Freddie, he had a gift.

I hope your hard times will be better soon . You are a great guy . Thankyou for your reactions to our Beloved Queen .

I love the fact that you SO appreciate Freddie's voice. This song is tinged with sadness, it was written about Mary, the love of his life, even though he was gay, and talks about growing old together, which obviously never happened......so sad....

Lovely reaction as always! This song always is a little bitter sweet to me too. Especially when he sings, when I grow older I will be there by your side.

The saddest thing to me was understanding the atmosphere of fear and unescapable death that lived in the game community at that time. Freddy kept his Aids diagnoses from his fans until his death neared. I always wonder when Aids began to impact the lyrics of his songs. It adds another of depth to the words.

I love your reactions! Your so right they don't make songs like this anymore. It truly makes you feel happy and cry at the same time because it's so beautiful. ❤

It was Queen’s final live concert at Wembley! Awesome reactions from you on this one, and all the other Queen that you have done 👏🏻

And when Brian May lead guitarist plays his Electric guitar that guitar he made with his father before Queen became famous a priceless item to him !

You have to hear the studio version of 'You Take my Breath Away', the voice of Freddie does literally that. Queen is the only band in the world where every member has written hit songs and the first ever rock band to be inducted into the Songwriter's Hall of Fame in 2003

You have just witnessed greatness!

Thanks for this.. I really love Brian's 12-string...

Incredible! Love this, he had the crowd under his spell!

You really have to check out the Rock in Rio 1985 Version of this song... there you'll see how much the crowd loves him ^^ Btw. I love your reactions. Thank you for it from the bottom of my heart. ^^

The love Freddie shared with the fans was, and is, unbroken. I don't know of anyone who could evoke that invisible family cord that bound him and each of us together. Hundreds of us were crying as we sang. It was the best gig I ever attended.

As usual, a great insightful reaction. I immediately subbed when you did Rhapsody because you pick up details that most, if not all, reactors other miss. Hope things are well.

The last words Freddie recorded were... I still love you. ♥️

He always had the crowd in the palms of his hand. I wish I could have gone to see them

Beautiful reaction your smile says it all you have so many more amazing queen songs to react to but try and watch the crowd in Rio singing back to Freddie 300 thousand people so amazing thank you take care x x

Freddie’s LAST concert is now on DVD. He never toured after he ‘Magic’ tour. He was suffering with pain.

You make me so happy! Queen is one of my top bands and always has been. Thank You for recognizing the off the charts talent!! Freddy and Queen had something so special. My husband and I love your videos and how knowledgeable and appreciative you are of this very special man Freddy and his band. I love to make suggestions of other music from the 70's and 80's you've never heard. So keep listening to Queen cuz I've never heard a song I don't love. The classic rock back then was so amazing and I never want that music Era to die so I'm going to suggest 2 songs and if you've never heard of these songs I think you will lo e them both😉 1. Boston - Peace of Mind 2. Heart - Crazy Thank you for the joy I get from watching you listen to this brilliant music, your reactions make me so happy and I'm sharing your videos and everyone has the same reaction to you as me.

I enjoy your joy. Brian May is a brilliant guitarist, and Freddie a masterful choir leader.

an advice.. do this concert react in parts... this is a brutal concert , iff you think life aid was good , this one is better and bigger . the concert is "Live in wembley 86 ... but do the second day of the concert its the best - well played and organized songs ( which inclues " Love of my Life " this version ... the first day its like a good preparation for the second day concert ) .

I love your reactions to Queen! Feel the exact same way

I love your reactions here! And you’re one of the only people who did a reaction video that highlighted that high note Freddie hits before he says “I still love you” to the crowd. That was a songbird type of high note with his vibrato and it was the best thing I’ve ever witnessed. This is probably my favorite version of Queen’s live performance for “Love Of My Life” but the version of this song from “Rock In Rio” from 1985 was right up there with this version from Wembley except the crowd in Rio sings a lot more of the song than Freddie does. Also, I can’t wait for your reaction videos for all of Freddie Mercury’s solo music videos from his 1985 “Mr. Bad Guy” album. Queen has a lot more to react to as well, you should react to “The Invisible Man”, “Too Much Love Will Kill You”, “These Are The Days Of Our Lives”(Queen’s final music video with Freddie before he died in 1991), and “Mother Love”(the last track Queen recorded in studio before Freddie’s death). There’s so much depth in Queen’s music catalog.

You should watch Queen + Adam Lambert sing this song. It's just Brian and the audience (Freddie makes a cameo appearance 😉). It's pretty moving. Even now when Queen performs they pay tribute to Freddie multiple times throughout the concert.

Freddie was and is loved very much. He left us this amazing music. What a wonderful gift. He will be forever missed.
