In this video, I react for the first time to Queen performing ‘Somebody To Love’ live in Montreal. In this video, I analyse their amazing performance, explain and demonstrate Freddie Mercury’s vocal techniques and I'll tell you what I think made it so great. Queen are one of the biggest bands of all time and they have a special place in my heart!

My cousin saw Queen in 82 and sat 2 rows from the front. At the end of the concert Freedie brought out a bouquet of roses, pulled out one at a time, kissed the rose then tossed it into the audience. She caught one, preserved it and still has it today.

the fact that these 4 found each other is nothing short of a miracle

I saw Queen in 1979 in Buffalo, NY. My university roommate was a huge Queen fan. No warm up act. Just Queen at their finest. A show I will never forget.

A journalist once asked Freddy what his favorite instrument to play was. He responded, "The audience, darling."

The world definitely got robbed losing Freddie and that awesome voice.

@nicholashylton6857 2 years ago (edited)

He was so magnificent at that moment, and the band members so in sync that you never notice Brian running back to fix a broken guitar string.

And I'm glad someone finally mentioned the brilliance of Rodger Taylor.

Thank you for recognizing Roger and John. When you have a talent and personality as larger than Life as Freddie's, it takes some effort to really appreciate the still amazing talents of the rest of the band. Sir Brian, of course, receives plenty of deserved attention, but I've always felt Roger and John don't get near enough respect. They are a super group, through and through.

@majorlybad 3 years ago

I've never understood how Roger can have such a raspy voice but a crystal clear falsetto. You've probably seen In The Lap Of The Gods live in 1974 but if not, he does some incredible high notes 😊

It's great that John Deacon gets some love. Some of his fills in that performance are awesome.

My Favourite Band/Singer Ever. I will admit that I’m a Freddie Mercury Fanatic and Proud to say it as well.

@tzimiable 3 years ago

I'm a metalhead normally, but there is simply no denying that Queen is the greatest band of all time, and Freddie is the greatest singer/frontman. There is not even a slight competition in the frontman part. There are loads of fantastic bands, but Queen is just the complete package of perfection, and unbeatable live.

I am 70 and have been a Queen fan since highschool. I saw them for the first time 3 nights in a row on Feb 5, 6 & 7 at the Beacon Theater, NYC in 1976….. saw them many times thereafter. They were signing autographs at a record store the next day. I got a fully autographed QUEEN II album. My prized possession. I don’t have kids and after I saw this video, I sent it to Lolli in England because I knew it would be in good hands. She is a treasure and a wonderful human being in addition to a great artist/ singer and vocal coach. She sent me a wonderful picture of her holding the album. Howard

Man, live, Freddy played the audience just as much as the piano, guitar, or his voice. Live-Aid is probably the best example of that.

Yes, I Love your comments... and your smile.. Beautiful

I've watched many other vocal coaches reacting to & analysing vocal performances on YouTube, but no one I've seen so far is capable of doing such detailed and complete analyses like you do. With your powers of observation you're able to bring up and focus on small details and nuances most people would simply overlook. Your wit, musical sensibility, humour and enthusiasm make for a treat of a package. And no matter how much you may geek over some aspect of a performance, you never do so in a superficial, annoying or boring way. You're a joy to watch and listen. Keep up the amazing work! Cheers and hugs! //Rick
