Welcome to the wonderful world of Queen! In this song he's not saying "Mama just killed a man". He's saying Mama, (I) just killed a man." This song is an iconic piece of musical creativity that only Queen could do. With my personal opinion, excluding a very few songs, their entire catalog is good. I strongly recommend that you watch "Somebody To Love" and "Save Me" live in Montreal and "White Queen" live at the Hammersmith Odeon. White Queen will break your brain. All of the songs I just mentioned are live for a reason. Almost all of their live songs are far better than the studio. There are a few that I personally would recommend the studio versions instead, but Queen was one of the rare bands who were just better live. You need to step into that rabbit hole. Queen fans will follow you down and direct you to the very best music ever. A side benefit for you is that your subscriber base will go crazy. Many fans, including me, sift through reactions to find Queen and when they find them they pay attention. So sit back, buckle up, hands and feet inside the ride at all times!

Live Aid. Full set. Is over 20minutes long. But don't worry, we Queenies love it and will watch the entire thing with you. Many people consider it the best concert performance of all time. Be careful though when you pick the video to react to. There is a version going around that has been cut terribly. Look for the version that is just over 22minutes 30seconds.

This song is considered one of the greatest songs ever written! I’ll be a loyal subscriber just to see you do more Queen songs! They have so many great ones. They are one of the greatest bands of all time! Check out Somebody To Love live in Montreal from 1981! Roger Taylor the drummer also has a magnificent voice. I’ll recommend more as you go! Good luck ! Great reaction by the way! So the band consists of Freddie Mercury on piano and lead vocals, Brian May on guitar, John Deacon on bass and Roger Taylor on drums. All are masters at what they do and they all wrote songs for the band. You have probably heard of queen before, but didn’t realize it. They wrote We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions, both of which have been played at sports, arenas and stadiums for the last 40+ years.

Let me introduce you the Queen: Freddie Mercury the lead singer and pianist, Brian May the guitarist, John Deacon the bassist and Roger Taylor the drummer, they all were highly graduated. Queen is the most versatile rock band, they wrote their own stuff in several genres from rock to jazz, to pop, etc. about 200 songs. Freddie never took singing lessons, but his powerful and emotional performances are still legendary. Freddie had 3 unfinished songs and then he put them together into this masterpiece. Great reaction, thanks.

This is an amazing and iconic song. It is hard to believe that this song has been around for nearly 50 years and it is still so relevant. Good musicianship is just good musicianship and Queen are masters at their craft. This exact recording has been #1 in 3 different decades. Queen is a British rock band comprised of four members. Freddie Mercury: Lead Vocals/Piano, Brian May: Lead Guitar/background vocals, John Deacon: Bass. and Roger Taylor: Drums/background vocals. Queen is a genre all their own, they do everything and they do it well. I don't think you will find a bad Queen song and their catalog is over 200 songs. You have heard Queen, you just didn't know it was them. We Will Rock You, We Are The Champions, Another One Bites The Dust, The Show Must Go On, Under Pressure, just a few of their very famous anthems. Queen has a catalog of about 200 songs, all great songs and something like 15 albums. I love this song, and I have been listening to it since it dropped in 1974, I never get tired of it. FYI, Queen doesn't usually block their videos at all. Nobody knows what this song is about, Freddie never said. He had three songs on a similar theme that he hadn't been able to finish so he decided to put them together and form a rhapsody. There are a lot of theories about what the song means, but I just like the song. A rhapsody is like a play, the music tells a story. Here I will go with, there is a crime, then there is judgement then, there is either escape or perhaps imprisonment, but in the end, nothing really matters. Thank you for your wonderful reaction to this song.

This is one of my all time favorite reactions to Queen. When you say, "This is magical" and "This is beautiful", you have absolutely captured how we all felt the first time hearing this. It is absolutely magical and beautiful and to think the producers fought them about making it. I encourage you to also listen to Love of My Life from Rock n Rio (I believe it was 1985). The audience in Rio doesn't speak English but they know the words to every song and sing it to Freddie (the lead singer). Queen had to push to go. They were told Rio was too dangerous and their safety couldn't be assured, but they knew they had fans there and went anyway. It was two concerts with about 150,000 people at each concert. It is magical and well worth seeing.

Freddie Mercury was working on writing three songs when he had the genius inspiration to combine them into this epic masterpiece. The very beginning with the "singing heads" is really just Freddie harmonizing with himself. He was telling his Momma that he had killed a man, not that she did. Welcome to the world of QUEEN, you're going to love it.

This single nearly didn't get released, because the radio stations didn't want to play anything over 3 minutes long. It smashed the British charts for months - nobody had heard anything like it before. Couldn't really dance to it, but it was one of those tracks you could put on late into the party, eyes closed with the lights down, and absorb the sheer intricacies of the musicianship. Beautiful time to be alive back then.

Queen is four members. All are extremely talented and educated. The opening sequence with the four heads singing in harmony was all done by lead singer Freddie Mercury by layering multiple tracks of himself. He was a musical genius, can’t wait to see what else you react to, enjoy
@trevorgoddard2278
@trevorgoddard2278 Год назад
One of the great things about reacting to Queen songs is that they almost never bother about copyright issues (if you get the videos from the Queen Official channel). The other thing is that there is always something to fit your mood or taste in music, about 200 songs and multiple live performances of some of them. As for what this is about, Freddie Mercury (the writer of this one) never explained the meaning of any of his songs, he left the meaning up to the listener. I could give you a list of Queen songs (studio and live) to react to, but having glanced at what you have already reacted to (the word eclectic springs to mind) I will give you my alternative suggestion. Go to Queen Official (www.youtube.com/@Queen) and pick a music video at random, I am sure you will enjoy whatever you pick.

@Sassypaws4927
@Sassypaws4927 Год назад
Queen is a British rock band that was formed in 1970 and was comprised of: Freddie Mercury - Lead vocals and piano Roger Taylor - Drummer and vocals Brian May - Lead guitar and vocals John Deacon - Bass guitar "Bohemian Rhapsody" released originally in 1975 is the creation of Freddie Mercury but he never told anyone what he was thinking when he wrote the lyrics. Freddie often wrote in metaphors so I would not suggest trying to take these lyrics literally. He wanted listeners to be able to apply to the song whatever meaning it had to them personally. Not what it meant to him. BTW - Freddie did admit that it was composed of three separate songs that he had been working on but could not seem to finish. So he decided to mash them together, adding some transitions and bridges, and created "Bohemian Rhapsody". "Bohemian Rhapsody" can be broken down into 6 parts: Part I is the "Into". The video image shows the four members of Queen singing and harmonizing the lyrics of the "Intro" in acapella. In reality, it is only Freddie's voice you hear on the recording. Freddie laid down 5 separate tracks of himself singing and harmonizing with himself. (FYI - multi-tracking and overdubbing runs rampant in Bohemian Rhapsody.) Next is the "Ballad" portion of the song ('Mama, just killed a man'). Freddie had worked on this song for years but it never had a name. The other members of Queen tentatively titled it "Freddie's Cowboy Song". The lyrist Tim Rice (who wrote the lyrics for "Jesus Christ, Superstar", "Evita", "Alladin", "The Lion King", ...) who was a close friend of Freddie's believes this portion of the song’s lyrics were about Freddie confessing to his fans that he was gay (a radical and scary thing to do in 1975). The third section is the guitar solo. This is the only part of Bohemian Rhapsody not written by Freddie. Freddie told Brian that he wanted a guitar solo in the song and where he wanted it to fit into the song but left it to Brian to create. Brian wanted to have his guitar effectively sing a verse that would inject a different melody. He heard something in his head. He said that he could hear this melody and had no idea where it came from. That melody isn’t anywhere else in the song, but it’s on a familiar chord sequence, so it dovetails in quite nicely. The guitar solo leads to the fourth section the "Operatic" section. Freddie not only loved Rock but he loved Opera. He was always fascinated with the idea of combining rock and opera. It took 3 weeks to record "Bohemian Rhapsody" and the "Operatic" section was much smaller when they began recording but Freddie kept adding to it. Various lyrics in the "Operatic" section seem to refer to members of the band. Freddie appears to cast himself as the character, Scaramouch, a stock clown of 16th-century Italian literature who dances around making a fool of himself but speaks the truth. Galileo who was an Italian astronomer, physicist, and engineer definitely refers to Brian (Queen's lead guitarist) who in real life is Dr. Brian May, a scholar with a Ph.D. in Astrophysics. Figaro refers to the Mozart opera, "The Marriage of Figaro" and it is a subtle way to reference Roger Taylor (Queen's drummer) who has a four-range vocal span (E2-E6) and was even frequently cited as hitting E5 in live performances while playing the drums. Freddie compared Roger's voice to a dog whistle. The final reference of Magnifico is Queen's bass guitarist, John Deacon, who has a degree in Electrical Engineering with Honors. John is the creator of the "Deacy Amp" which when connected to Brian May's homemade electric guitar (the Red Special) through a treble-booster could produce sounds reminiscent of various orchestral instruments, such as violin, cello, trombone, clarinet, or even vocals. It is hard to realize that it is only Freddie, Brian, and Roger singing in the "Operatic" section (John never sang on the records). This was 1975, well before digital recordings and autotune. Recordings were made using 24-track analog tape. The limits of tape made it necessary for the three vocalists to overdub themselves many times and "bounce" these down to successive sub-mixes. Some sections of Bohemian Rhapsody feature 180 separate overdubs! The fifth section is the "Hard Rock" portion. In this section, Freddie sings angry lyrics addressed to an unspecified "you", accusing them of betrayal and abuse and insisting "can't do this to me, baby", before the final lines conclude with him singing, "just gotta get right outta here". FYI - the "Operatic" and the "Hard Rock" sections of BoRap were featured in a scene in the 1992 film Wayne's World, in which the main character and his friends headbang in a car to the rock part. Because of the success of Wayne's World, Bohemian Rhapsody was re-released in the U.S. in 1992 and rose to Number 2 on the Billboard chart. In the sixth and final section, the "Outro" returns back to the "Ballad" to close the circle of the song and ends with the sound of a Chinese gong. Welcome to the world of Queen.

He tells his mom he killed a man, presumably to survive and threw his life away knowing they will come for him, his time has come. The accapella bit is his trial and others are begging for his freedom, but has the devil put a place for him in hell? After his time is served or release he is rejected buy his friends and the people that once loved him so they verbally stone him and spit on him. So he has to get out of that place he used to call home. But in the end he survives cus nothing really matters anymore... Well thats how i read the song anyway. Shear Brilliance.

Loved your reaction. Welcome to the world with Queen. . . Songs/lyrics can have special meanings for different people, and that’s ok. I’ll quickly share what it means to me. 1)the four face harmony at the beginning bit ( fyi, that was ALL Freddie harmonising with himself). = “I” am a easy going guy who will go with the flow. I’m a normal guy. 2) mama~ I killed a man = mama ( because I’m freaking out and seek safe harbour from mum), I’ve done something really bad/made a huge serious mistake with serious consequences ( committed a crime, injured someone, got in a major fight, stole, fraud, cheated on partner, etc including killing),or may be referring to having done something to “kill” the person you were pretending to be, like coming out as gay, nude photos of yourself got distributed, etc etc 3) if I’m not back this time tomorrow,carry on = I’m going to make a run for it or I could get caught and lose my freedom/life 4) because nothing really matters = losing hope, out of your control, giving up 5) too late my time has come shivers down spine, aching = I’ve been caught out, I’m so anxious and worried sick 6) I don’t want to die = I don’t want to physically/socially/career-wise/financially die. I’m scared. I don’t want to face the consequences. The middle bit ( I see a little silhouette of a man ~Figaro (immature and spoiled little boy) Magnifico (powerful eminent person)~devil put aside for me) = the internal, mental struggle and the bargaining/pleading with God for relief after being having been caught. 1) I’m now only a silhouette, a little one at that. I’m a “shadow of who I used to be”. 2) it’s very frightening to be so little, so pathetic, poor me, no one loves me, begging God/someone who could ease your pain or help you avoid facing full consequences, like parent, spouse or friend to let your clean reputation be reinstated and make the consequences go away. 4) internal struggle within self to be free of guilt vs not forgiving self/shame OR it could be asking people for forgiveness/pretend the bad thing never happened vs not being forgiven, and having ties cut by friends, family, work etc. 5) I now have to live with the weight of the knowledge of what I’ve done. I’ve been cursed (with a cross to bare).accepting situation of having to face terrible consequences. So you think you can ~~ spit in my eye = a new phase, perhaps anger at all the people who unfairly/endlessly torture you for what you were found guilty of. So you think you can love me and leave me to die = people you trusted most, love most cutting ties with you, not helping you now that you are a pariah, an outcast Just gotta get right out of here = realising old environment isn’t helping and the need to leave all baggage (including family, friends who have turned their backs on you) behind and start new in a new environment. Nothing really matters = it is what it is. I can’t change past. Realisation that holding on to undeserved guilt, fear and shame doesn’t help or change anything Any way the wind blows = I’ll be true to myself and follow wherever my heart pulls me.

Queen never block their video's.The best band ever singing the best song EVER. don't forget the bass!They have 200 songs! And they invented this form of video - - Mtv didn't,t exist -and they could not go on a promotional tour so they sent this to BBC - - who played it 9 weeks in a row - - no. 1 should be played next week - and the stayed as no. 1! nice reaction. - a new subscriber .

The very first thing that confuses most new listeners is they miss that the "MOMMA" cry is a confession TO mamma. Momma didn't pull a gun, he did -- and he's sick about it. Seems like people are commin' for him too. A system has it's claws in him and he just wants to be set free. He ends up like, "You can't do this to me BABY!" But in his gang-life world, or whatever it is, by the end "nothing really matters...."

When this masterpiece "came out" in 1975, I was just entering high school, and over the decades its meaning has only gotten deeper. What Freddy Mercury did was lay down sophisticated clues about his sexual coming of age, particularly his sexual experiences with other men. When he sings that he pulled his "trigger," he not only refers to having had an orgasm, he refers to that orgasm as breaking such a strong cultural taboo that it was equivalent to suicide. Especially back in the 1970s, but even today, many gay and bisexual people can relate to the constant hatred and condemnation directed at them, often by their own mothers, such that they wish they "had never been born at all." As the song progresses Freddy continues to struggle, trying to reconcile his sexuality and religious upbringing. But then, as alluded to by the crescendo, he reaches a breakthrough moment when he decides that he will accept himself. Still, he quickly discovers that accepting himself is bittersweet because in his new life he can't find a stable, loving relationship. So in the end, he concludes that it doesn't matter if others love or accept him, he will still be at peace, proceeding "any way the wind blows."

Welcome to Queen. Everyone finds this song sooner or later in their lifetime and their brain spins out when hearing it for the first time. I remember hearing this as a kid. I’m 52 now but I was about 8 when my little brother dragged me to the TV when they were on playing. Whatever song they were playing ended and my brother was so sad I missed out, it then this song began. Our eyes were so big. We couldn’t comprehend what we were listening to. We didn’t know who sang it or what the name was so we called it “that song” A few years ago my daughter came running in the door after school. She was 11 maybe… she was flipping out, had to tell me about this amazing new band she discovered and excited she was because she could see they had a bunch of songs. She set up the speakers and turned it on for me to hear and it was “that song” Her little heart broke when I told her that the band is 50 years old and Freddie died before she was born. She cried, that’s how much this song moved her and moved her again when she learned he was gone. Queen was made up of 4 musical geniuses who wrote these songs together. Freddie was a child prodigy who grew up in Zanzibar playing his piano and singing for people as a kid. He was bullied because of his teeth. No one was caring about his teeth when he was singing his heart and soul out with Queen! They all met in college, were nerdy misfits and created all this genius music together. Dude, I LOVED watching your reaction to this. You get it. It was great watching all the great parts of this piece hit you. You were dancing, singing and confused. Yes! This song does that! You will probably be interested in watching the movie Bohemian Rhapsody that came out a few years ago and won some Oscars. It was created by 2 of the band members. After you watch that, go to Netflix and watch The Show must go on The Queen and Adam Lambert story. Freddie died 30 years ago but 15 years ago Queen made an appearance on American Idol and Adam Lambert, a final contestant sang with them. It was kismet. Now Queen has another gifted Icon singing. They are touring together one last time this year. The only tickets left are VIP or expensive seats but closer to the show there will be lots of resale at face value. Go. There is nothing like a Queen show!!! Their shows are absolutely insane and Adam has one of the most beautiful voices you may ever hear. Adam was trained as a kid, did theater and opera before he started singing with Queen 11 years ago. So good! Same guitarist and drummer. The drummer’s son plays with them too. Thanks for such a great video!

Love the way you react! Like I said, I can't sit down either when I listen to ANY music. Thank you for reacting to this masterpiece! From what I understand, it was a couple of songs Freddie has in his head and melded them together. But in the 70's,(and now) one thing that stuck out was how amazing it sounded with headphones. The play from one ear to the other is sooo cool. Never get tired of it!!

Bohemian Rhapsody is not just a Masterpiece, it is a Masterpiece rock opera in three parts. As you listen, you will find that it is written in three styles, each with its own subject. The first is murder, recognizing it, and its impact. Second, the chaos and circus of a trial. Third, accepting the verdict, and death. Note that the last note is a single symbol strike, allowed to die out. Bohemian Rhapsody just goes to the heart. It, Queen, and Freddy Mercury will live forever, on this song alone.

The opening a Capella bit is only Freddie harmonizing with himself, even though it shows all four of them singing. Queen=best band ever! Freddie=best singer ever! All four are in the songwriter’s hall of fame, and Queen is in the rock and roll hall of fame. All four are college graduates with Brian May (guitarist) having a PhD in Astrophysics and working with NASA!

Those of us that grew up in the 70's were spoiled rotten. This kind of stuff WAS 'popular music' back then, it wasn't indy or alternative, this was the mainstream. Back then, we had art in the music charts. Real writers, singers and players. It was the guys in the band and a producer, that was it. You didn't have 6 writers, 4 arrangers and 12 producers on top of the actual band members like you do these days. To make it back then, you needed talent and if you had it, that was enough.

One of the best ever songs by the world’s best ever band! No Rhap as fans know it was way ahead of its time but is still as much loved as ever! Freddie never explained it’s meaning but preferred fans to have their own interpretation, he did however say that it was 3 unfinished songs that he put together! So happy that you are enjoying going down the Queen rabbit hole, you will now have the thrill of enjoying their huge catalogue of all their songs! More please, “Somebody To Love” live in Montreal in ‘81, Tie Your Mother Down, Under Pressure, White Queen, the possibility are endless & none of them will disappoint! Besides all of Queen being superb musos, they are all very clever guys, Freddie Mercury had a diploma in design, Brian May( lead guitarist & back up vocals) has a Doctorate in Astrophysics & is now Sir Brian May having been recently knighted by King Charles, John Deacon, bass guitarist has a degree in Electronics & Roger Taylor, drummer has a Biology degree. All 4 have written no 1 hits! Thank you, love from Australia! 🇦🇺 ❤️

Queen wrote and performed two movie soundtracks HIGHLANDER and FLASH GORDON. If you’re not a Queen fan at the end of HIGHLANDER than you weren’t listening to the music that tied perfectly into the movie. FLASH GORDON is just a joyous romp through high camp both musically and visually.

Once you've heard this a few times, I have a challenge for you. There is an Acapella (no instruments) group called PENTATONIX that does a cover of Bohemian Rhapsody. I think you'd enjoy it a lot.
