As a child of 63 - grew up with these rock anthems - today in 2024 the lyrics make total sense more than ever - think about it - those were the days - now are the days to really enjoy them and know we are not crazy - they were right then
I ageed, but unfortunately he as queen's frontman didn't match, Freddy leavy a legacy hard to beat, but Free and Bad Company was really fantastic bands
When Freddie Mercury was dying he said replace me with Paul Rogers I actually prefer Paul to Adam he's not trying to be Freddie just himself a great singer I think it went well
I could watch this video all day long and never get tired of seeing it. Paul Rodgers has the best voice in rock and blues. Best looking guy in the world.
Wow,has to have the best voice of the Woodstock singers that are still with us! 😁👍👍👍

There has never been a better rock and blues/rock singer than Paul Rodgers, and very few his equal. Last time I saw him he was fronting Queen in Hyde Park and it was ACE. Brian loves playing rock classics and Wishing Well, Alright Now, Can't Get Enough and Feel Like Making Love were the four Free/Bad Company classics they included in the concert I saw and they were all brilliant and brilliantly enjoyed by audience and band alike. It isn't Queen, of course, but the Queen and Adam Lambert thing is not my cup of tea, and I'd like to see Paul Rodgers, Brian May and Roger Taylor play more live gigs together under any name just because what they do together is so very good and thoroughly enjoyable. Top rocking!
not really, very simplistic. They do nt compare in comparison to the complexity and beauty of mr Steve Walsh! ...and lets not overlook John Elefante who can sing around Paul and Lou. and if Ronnie James was still here, well........
This song was so Amazing. This have to end up on my RU-vid Rocklist. Paul might not hit the highest notes, like Freddie, but he sure have a powerful, good voice.
i swear his voice just getting stronger and more soulful as he gets older. And if he is reading this, please work with Robin Trower next. His voice would be perfect for the songs Trower did with James Dewar.
wow Brian May does an amazing first giutar solo 2:23- 2:40 on this version of Wishing Well. Paul Kosssoffs Phrasing and Brian Mays joy of being able to play this classic I thought it was amazing the combination of the two.
Maybe not everybody knows that no one else but the great Freddie Mecury once said that Paul Rodgers was THE VOICE, the best voice in the history of rock. Maybe it was only courtesy, but Freddie was a big Free fan, so I believe it might be more than pure courtesy. For me, not far from the truth anyway.
I must have been one of them few ppl in the world who didn’t hate the Queen + Paul Rodgers collaboration. I think Paul Rodgers is a great singer and I like Queens take on songs like these (“Wishing Well”, “All Right Now”, “Feel Like Making Love”, this live album was honestly how I was introduced to PR and his songs). The album they did also I didn’t think was that bad, there are some songs I really like on it (“Some things that glitter”, “Say It’s Not True”, “C-Lebrity” some of the highlights in my opinion from Cosmos Rocks). I’m not saying it’s groundbreaking stuff, that every song is a hit. I’m not saying PR is better than Freddie, no way, but I don’t understand this almost anal obsession of hating on everything Queen does after his death. Freddie wouldn’t want the boys to up and stop just cause he has passed (you know the history by now, the man was vigorously working on music even up to his final days, desperate to keep making music), I don’t see why RT & BM have to stop if they don’t want to. And I think everybody knows no one they get is replacing Freddie, not Paul or even Adam, and nor are they trying to. They’re keeping the music alive, they’re bringing these songs to live settings to ppl who have long missed the chance to see them performed by the original Queen members. And whose against more music, more content? I’m all for more songs from Queen whoever they decide to collab with, whether unreleased Freddie gems or new stuff with Adam or someone else. anyway, soz bout that lil rant, loved this version of the song btw
I went to see them in Newcastle, UK, in 2005 and they were effing outstanding! I too much preferred this collaboration than Q + AL. Lots of Queen songs require that rock timbre which Lambert just doesn't possess.
I grew up with the DVD of this concert, and love Paul Rodgers as the frontman Of Queen. His voice is incredible! It’s a shame Brian and Paul didn’t work out very well. Adam Lambert is still good but I definitely prefer Paul, even though he is too old to do this again imo
@@curlyhairedgamer-gamingand191 Everyone keeps saying Brian and Paul didn't get on yet I've never seen any evidence of this. In fact; any interview I've seen they've always been very complimentary of each other.
Brian May absolutely _killed_ this: respectful of Koss's incomparable original but tastefully & masterfully improvising on it. No attempt to redo it, just a perfect balance of old & new. Koss would be pleased/
Brian said in an interview some years ago that they were influenced by bands like Cream and Free,and if you listen to some of Queen's earlier music/ albums,some had a bluesy feel or sound . Also John Deacon was said to have been heavily influenced by R and B ,since Brian said in 1982,John went that direction more than they did. Hot Space,I think was the album where this was mostly done above all the others they did.
I first heard this song at a biker party when I was a kid, 11-12 yrs old, as my dad is a biker, and was well divorced from my mom, so I was always at weekend camping biker rallies and local house party's and down the pub, or cruising the country side looking for pubs and eating late night lamb bhuna's as I was growing up. Anyway a few years went by and I had all but forgotten about this song, then one day in my later teens I heard it start playing and the tingles started running across my shoulders, down my arms and to my lower back. Right then I knew what real music was, and knew I'd landed in terms of listening deeper, and fully enjoying each different tune.
