FIRST TIME HEARING QUEEN'S "BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY" REACTION | BEAUTIFUL HARMONIES 😍❤️  

Understand why it's a classic now, right?

My new favorite thing is watching people discover Queen

Freddie was absolutely a gift from God. He gave him the extraordinary talent to sing, and he used it to his fullest….and it’s that voice & showmanship with Queen that we all love.

Freddie Mercury the legend that will never die

It's so wonderful watching someone become a Queen fan.

Thank you for not being an interrupting reactor. I enjoyed this as a Queen head

‘It’s a totally different song.’ It’s the original, hon - hard for anyone to top that!🔥🎶🔥 Great reaction 🤗

Songs are rarely perfect, but this song is perfect. Beautifully perfect.

Welcome to 70 80s rock..... i grew up with this... great reaction vid.... all the bands back then had something that made the special.... i appreciate it more now than then.... love watchin youre generation discover REAL MUSICIANS putting out real masterpieces.... no auto tune no corrections ... freddy was freaking amazing...

Freddie always note perfect

This is truly a masterpiece…I was 15 years old when Queen released this song. At the time I had no idea it would be the best song ever written ♥️

Freddies song will never be sung as well by anyone other than Freddie. Long live Queen

Nope. The video you watched is not remastered. That'svwhy Queen is Queen.. Pure, raw talent.. Simply out of this world. Even LIVE, it sounded that magical !!!!

Best rock song ever created. Best lead vocalist ever created. Best front-man ever created. Best band ever created.

Great reaction. Freddie Mercury had 3 unfinished songs so he kneaded them together into this masterpiece. There are several theories about the meaning of the song, but nobody knows the truth, because Freddie never explained his lyrics, especially not this one.

you just found the greatest band in history!

This song gets better after every time it is heard

Welcome to Queen my friend. I grew up with them as I'm 61 now but I still feel like 25.

I bought the original "A night at the opéra" when I was 15 years old. I listened to Bohemian Papsody more than a hundred times, and it's like a great wine. Each time it's better. Stange feeling, it's more and more better, and I'm more and more inconsolable.

Queen are legends!! So many wonderful songs to pick from and all are masterpieces. I see a lot of people suggesting Somebody to Love live in Montreal I would also like to add Queen's live aid 1985 performance, it is considered the best live performance in music history.

thanks, Jay -- BTW, "re-mastered" is NOT "re-recorded" - it just means that with better technology they adjusted the original recording to sound at its best -- all these harmonies, headphone-chasing, etc. - were in the original - which is why I'm so glad you listened with headphones -- rock on, young dude! BTW, when asked about the "meaning" of Bo Rap - Freddie just said "It means what you think it means..." - so brilliant!

It was really bittersweet because at the end Freddie Mercury died of AIDS, so it was almost like he had a premonition of his death, when he says "momma, life has just begun and now I've gone and thrown it all away"... His death was a huge blow to alot of us fans, although he told the world that he had aids, none of us believed he would die that quickly!! Huge sadness!!! Huge loss!! RIP FREDDIE MERCURY

Welcome to the QUEENDOM 👑 The Queenies are very passionate about Freddie, Brian, Roger, & John. Queen is one of the best selling artists of all time!! Boh Rhap is the most streamed song in the 20th Century! Queen members are in the Song Writer’s Hall of Fame & Rock n Roll Hall of Fame! 💟 Freddie has always said that the interpretation of the song is left up to the listener … which gives each of us a special experience that’s unique!! There’s no cover in the world that does it justice! Freddie passed away almost 30 yrs ago & still considered the best rock vocalist & frontman in the world! 🌎🌟⭐️💫✨☀️ Thank you! 😁

Just gets better the more you listen to it .

You must view Queen’s 1985 Live Aid 25min performance, GOAT! I cray thinking of Freddie. 🥺

I love Freddie since i was a little girl, now i'm 40 💖 All Queen's songs are masterpieces, please react all! Don't stop me now, Love of my Life, Delilah, Somebody to love, I want it all, We will rock you, In my defence, and all other beautiful songs 💖

Queen - Under Pressure (Live at Wembley)

You can’t go wrong with Queen! There is so much more to experience! Go for it! I recommend Somebody to Love live in Montreal 1981. It’s out of this world!

It’s so unreal that you don’t know queen 😊enjoy and learn what real music is all about,no auto tune,just raw real talent ❤️❤️🎤🌟🌟

Nice reaction! The song is written like a tragic opera. He begins by confessing a murder to his mother. In the second verse he gives himself over to the authorities. The middle operatic section is a trial for his soul between heaven and hell, then he becomes angry and rebellious about his situation in the rock section, but in the end, the song finally resolves and he accepts his fate. The song goes through the 5 stages of grieve. That is the most literal interpretation of the lyrics, however many people do believe that the song really holds a deeper meaning. Many people believe that the man that he kills is a reference to himself, he is killing part of himself. Freddie Mercury never gave out the meaning of his lyrics, he really wanted to people to find their own meaning in the lyrics, he wanted people to connect the music to their own personal lives. In truth no one actually knows what the songs really means. Bohemian Rhapsody has often been voted as the best song of all time, it is also one of the best selling songs of all time. The song is actually a very complex song it has 49 different cords while most songs today only have 4 different cords, the song has about 180 vocal overdubs. It was very difficult to record this song in 1975. The music video for the song is also known as the first music video that was shot on purpose for promotion. Bohemian Rhapsody have charted in three different decades, it has appeared on the charts in 1975, 1992 and 2018. You should check out Somebody To Love from Queen live in Montreal 1981, Freddie Mercury is most often voted as the best vocalist of all time, Queen are known for having some the best harmonies, they had 3 members would could sing. Freddie Mercury sang and did every genre of music, he even recorded an crossover opera album with one of the best opera sopranos of all time. That is also something to check out, since it seem like you are interested in vocalist. Check out the song Barcelona (used as the theme song of the Olympics in 1992) - Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballe at La Nit 1987. As to the meaning of Bohemian Rhapsody, I personally believe it is in the title of the song, a Bohemian is an artist. A Rhapsody is an unstructured movement in classical music, or it can can be a story or an epic journey, tale or poem about a person's live. So in my personal opinion Bohemian Rhapsody is really the life story of an entertainer, artist, performer or singer. You have to kill part of yourself to be successful in the industry. You also have to entertain other people no matter what you might be going through in your own life.

To my knowledge the only movie's containing 'Bohemian Rhapsody' are 'Wayne's World' and 'Bohemian Rhapsody', but it does also feature in the TV series 'Good Omens' and probably a few others. When Freddie wrote 'We Are The Champions' he wasn't kidding, their music is everywhere some of it so engrained into our culture we sometimes forget someone wrote it, stamp, stamp, clap and everyone knows what to sing.

Jump on the Queen train, but hold on tight, it’s a wild ride.

"Welcome to Queen and beloved Freddie" This is a master piece

Great reaction. Freddie said it was all up to the listener he never said what the song was about.

Your getting into real music 🌟❤️enjoy 🎤🌟🌟🌟

Happy Birthday Dr. Brian May 🎸❤️

Best song ever bin made👌👌👌

It's like a totally different song... lol. Wait for it. Two more to come.

Just wanna say beautiful reaction thanks... Love from France 🇫🇷😘

Thank you for pretty much letting it play and also all the way to the end.

Need to hear Another one bites the dust and We r the champions

All their songs r so amazing 🤩

Bohemian being counter-culture or unconventional. Rhapsody in the musical sense is a piece which connects multiple contrasting sections. This song is very accurately named, and really indicates the level of sophistication that flowed through this band.

Yeah!! Welcome! and Thanks!

Wonderful reaction!!! And , I'm sorry, but you'll never get a definitive explanation of the meaning. Theories abound, but only one person every really knew, and he's not telling.

New Subscriber here. 4 transitions..Wow! Right?? Been listening to Queen for over 40yrs..I was devastated upon hearing that Freddie was gone. Damn It! I miss him. He should still be Here! 💔😥

If you want to understand what that song means to us oldies and a large bunch of the young as well, check out the Green Day gig in Hyde Park........

Saw them at Market Square Arena in Indianapolis, they put on a fantastic show. You should check out "Killer Queen" and "You're My Best Friend", two excellent songs that don't get much attention.

Nice react... Thank you... Check out "somebody to love" live in Montreal... You will not regret it... It's just outstanding...

If you're stunned now,imagine how we were in the early 70s🤯💯

The fact that they did the soundtrack for the Highlander, let's you know how great Queen was.

An epic masterpiece from Queen. Now, go for more! "The show must go on"...

Gee they really don't make them like this anymore how legendary😊

Freddie rarely talked about what that song meant some say he had some songs he joined together to make it but between you and me i think he wrote it for the audience to join in with he always loved starting a mass sing song at Queen gigs and this was really the first of many everybody could join in with. When asked once what his favourite instrument was his reply was "the audience darling" lol now if you have not check out an audience in 2017 singing Bohemian Rhapsody Hyde Park at a Green day gig then you should,its like Freddie is conducting them from heaven.

I saw Queen in 1978 in NYC was awesome awesome something i will never forget and im a huge fan.

They left interpretation open to each individual, like you shirt 💚

Even though this was your first known experience with Queen. I would bet you have heard them before. Any sporting championship or such event will always play "We are the champions" . There are also a couple others that are played quite often that people don't know who is sing the songs. Now if you want to hear more, just push play on any song they put out. You will love it.

Jay continue please down this rabbit 🐇 hole. Your appreciation of music will increase beyond your dreams.

I truly miss radio from the 70s. Thank you.

The guitar player with the curly hair has a PhD in Astrophysics. That blew my mind. You can keep the Beatles and the Stones....I will take Queen anytime.

Rhapsody means different genre's of music. Freddie said the parts were 3 different songs that he put together.... so, scaramouche is like a jester, a showman, (possibly Freddie) Fandango is a dance (possibly John..named disco Deacy because he could bop). Galileo is a famous astronomer (possibly Brian as he studied Astronomy), Figaro a famous Opera ( possibly Roger for his high notes) Bismilah means "in the name of God" in Arabic...Freddie’s family were Parsi Indian and were Zoroastrian in faith. Freddie would tell anyone who asked it was just poetry and gobbledegook... Even Brian and Roger do not really know the meaning behind it all. Some will say it's Freddie killing himself as he is..straight, to become Gay... Any where the wind blows...where life may take him. Remember "so you think you can stone me and spit in my eye" is relevant to their religion as homosexuality is forbidden and frowned upon...you were stoned to death. It is said that Freddie fought with his sexuality. Also the beginning where all 4 were singing, is just Freddie with lots of over dubs of himself... Brian and Roger said he was so good that sometimes the overdubs got lost in together because Freddie would song it exactly the same over and over.. so pretty much merged into one and would lose the lots of voices sound. No autotune in those days...it wasn't invented until 1996. You HAD to be able to sing back then. And yes, they could sing. Freddie has 4 Octaves in range. He could sing anything...as you delve into their catalogue they did 20s to 90s ..Thrash metal, Rock, Rock n roll, soul to R & B, Pop and Jazz. Freddie even stepped into the Opera arena in 87 with Montserrat Caballe with an album called Barcelona. So try Stone cold crazy...Thrash metal/ prog Rock Crazy little thing called love ....Rock n roll 50s Another one bites the dust. ..disco funk 39...folk Lazing on a Sunday afternoon ..20s 30s Dreamers Ball...jazz style... White Queen....( Live ) for the instrumental and Freddie's smooth voice Take my Breath away..live at Hyde Park Innuendo...different sounds again... Somebody to love ...live at Montreal 81 Fat Bottomed girls....live in Milten Keynes Barcelona or The Golden Boy or Guide me home and How can I go on... Freddie and Montserrat Caballe collaborations. .Opera. And Freddie's tones only no words....Exercises in Free love. This is where you hear Freddie’s vocal range.

I love your reaction.

I have been listening to this song since the first day it came out in the USA and I never get tired of it. Great music and performers are timeless. Thank you for reacting to this. Freddie never said what this song was about, he wanted to leave it up to the listener to decide.

Check out Queen live!!! Somebody to love live Montreal 81 Under pressure live at Wembley 86 Fat bottomed girls live at Bowl 82 White queen live at the Odeon 75 Bohemian rhapsody Montreal 81 Most Queen songs with a few exceptions sound much better live then studio. Don't stop me now offical video The show must go on official video I want to break free official video I want it all official video

If there's _ANYONE_ who has listened to this song and they say they don't like it, I don't wanna know 'em. _SERIOUSLY_

Beautiful!! Queen 4ever. Such an iconic band and they have a huge catalogue. Their songs were so diverse. May I suggest some live stuff? I suggest Stone Cold Crazy live at the Rainbow or Who wants to live forever live at Budapest. Much bless youngman and keep up the good work!

Bohemiam Rhapsody by Freddy and Queen is such an emotional experience. Now you've found it 😊

Best coming out song ever!

Pentatonix does a fantastic a capella cover of this song. Brian May (Queen's lead guitarist) has even posted it to social media several times.

Check out Live Aid concert, the best! Freddie Mercury, best frontman ever!. Queen was definitely before it's time.

It was the First Music Video ever to be made

yeah, it's a "totally different song" because a band with epic talent is singing and performing it.

As an A Cappella group I don't think there's another group that does this song justice like Pentatonix, you should check out their version. Brian May, Queen’s guitarist, shared the Pentatonix version of Bohemian Rhapsody on his Facebook page. The 1st time I heard this song, ions ago, I was caught off guard, then slowly started taking it in & now, it's hard to listen to this song and NOT rock out to it. One guy that did a reaction to this, noticed there's 6 sections to this song (intro, ballad section, guitar solo, operatic section, hard rock section & the outro), Freddy Mercury had such a phenomenal voice. His is truly missed & was a rock legend.

Great reaction ! Please react to more Queen :)

Beautiful opening to your channel! Great reaction to this one in a billion masterpieces! 😉 ps. Your facial expressions were precious!

This song is original i buy this 1975 it was very before in time 1975

Everybody is oblivious to the meaning of this song, personally I believe it was Freddie's attempt to write a mini opera, also a chance to do something like 'The March of the Black Queen', but with the time and money it needed to be perfect. The song 'Mamma Mia' was also written in 1975, and was released the month before so I doubt it's title came from here, but Queen did inspire a lot of performers, who knows what Lady Gaga would have called herself if not for 'Radio Ga Ga'.

Loved your reaction.....there are masterpieces and then there's Bohemian Rhapsody......5 parts to this song...Acapello, Ballad, Operatic, Rock Anda Coda.........you must follow the storyline..........look up Scaramouch and Bismilla...that will explain the Operatic section

If the entire world needed to agree upon a common anthem there is a good chance it would be bohemian rhapsody!;)

Love Queen 😍 Next, plz check n react to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody Fingerstyle cover by Alipbata 🤩

Hay Jay I Am From Indonesia. Good Luck Brother

OMG here is a reviewer who does some basic research on who HE is reviewing.....thank you! i watched another reaction video who started out by saying. We are watching Queen today....then said, I don't know who she is OMG it went downhill from there

and to answer the question you had about Mama Mia that is a song written by a group named ABBA which you should also check out. I think you would enjoy several of their songs.👍

🥰

Watch Green Day 65,000 singing Bohemian

Absolutely "Somewhat Sad.."... .

This song is actually about Freddie facing up to being gay. The man in the song that he's killed is the Freddie who was pretending to be straight.

The whole first part is freddie overlaying himself

Some of the best harmonies ever and the movie is a MUST on ur musical journey….u have to check out Lost that loving feeling by the Righteous Bros….amazing harmonies in that as well!!! I’m a new fan of ur page, love ur reactions

Find the 1985 Live Aid Queen performance Best 20 minutes you will ever have

Hi J..Firstly..Nice To Hear A Fellow Brit..Second..Check Out Queens Live Aid Set From Wembley.. Appx 30 Minutes Of Absolute Magic 🇬🇧

*******************QUEEN = GENUIS***************** Now you know why Angelina wanted to do a cover of this song!

1978 New Orleans Queen Halloween Concert and after party at the Fairmont Hotel. Concert wasn't their best, but the after party was the stuff of legion. One party attendee stated “legion of strippers, vulgar fat-bottomed dancers, snake charmers, drag queens, and bizarrely festooned revellers” making their way through a mock forest in the huge banquet hall. As music roared from speakers, dancing and nudity soon followed. The goal was to “create an environment where whatever you wanted to do was sanctioned. By some accounts, dwarfs serving cocaine on trays they may have carried on their heads.

Loved ur reaction and the way u analysized it pls pls do Guns and Roses Paradise City and Welcome to the jungle if possible. Slash is my favorite.❤😊 keep up the good work.

Emotion not very bad

So young. My past.

It's a song that doesn't have one meaning it's done in a way that it means something different to everyone

They never offered an explanation for what the song means, Freddie thought each person should be able to decide what it means to them.

It’s a metaphor...not applying to Freddie...he wrote songs and said people should put their own meaning to it🤩

Mamma mia is simply Italian for My mom. Also, it's a common expression of surprise or shock in that language, just like Oh my God in English.
