MUSICIAN REACTS to - Queen "Who Wants To Live Forever" (Official Video) 

I can listen to queen all day and never get tired of them

Ye... I totally agree nothing and nobody can replace freddie his voice is unmatched from another galaxy and brian is so talented his singing and playing the guitar so special all queen is outstanding ❤

This is musical perfection.

No matter how mamy times i hear this song, my reaction is always the same as yours ❤

when Freddie comes on stage and start singing i have chills everytime.

Queen rarely used an orchestra. They depended solely on themselves. This was for the movie "Highlander", so they went all out. Awesome!

Queen's talent is always overwhelming to me.

Fabulous Freddie Forever Loved. . Thank you. ...xx

❤Wow indeed.

I loved Freddie. This song always puts me in mind of the first Highlander movie when his human wife passes of old age, this is the song played. It's very touching in the movie. I still miss Freddie.

Wow sweetheart what a fantastic 👌 song 🎵 love love it xxx take care stay safe 😘

Que cancio'n , mas Realista y sublime.Una voz, celestial Freddie , Tu'si Eres Inmortal.

If you haven't already, you really ought to compare this to the 'stripped down' live-version, Wembley or Budapest.

Love this song Goosebumps Every time I hear it 💯💟👑❣️🌻🌞🐐🔥💓💋

the opening chord might be the most beautiful thing in this song lol

I love this song and you are right it is just wow, but I also love the live in Budapest or Wembley 1986 x

Thank you John for a perfect reaction to this musical masterpiece 😊 I always get goosebumps when watching this video. Live versions of this song are also amazing. ♥️

Thank you for listening to it all through without interruption. This song really is a kind of magic, and one of the best things they have ever done. It is particularly poignant at the moment for me because my mum is in hospital and nearing the end of her life.

Brian May wrote this for the soundtrack of the movie "Highlander" and I believe the orchestration was by Michael Kamen who did the soundtrack. Queen recorded several other songs for the movie, most of which were included on their "A Kind of Magic" album, as well as a solo piano version played by Brian. I love this but there are some powerful live versions that I also love.

Written by Brian May for the Highlander movie soundtrack!! Beautiful gorgeous song … the live version is magical. I love the Budapest version! Other songs from the soundtrack are PRINCES OF THE UNIVERSE, ONE YEAR OF LOVE, GIMME THE PRIZE, A KIND OF MAGIC, DON’T LOSE YOUR HEAD ..

All i think when i see this is that i pity the poor soul who had to light all those candles

i believe they hired queen to do all the music for highlander

That's one of my favorite songs of theirs and the video is very awesome too

Thanks, John - Brian May song... I like how Brian starts, and then when Fred take over... I look forward to more of your reactions...

This song has it all. Freddie's ridiculous vocals, Brian on vocals, guitar and keyboard, Roger on drums, John on the stand up bass, a full orchestra and a boys choir. What else could you ask for? Amazing

wow.. is the right reaction

LEGEND!

This was conducted by Brian May, wrote the song too. Just sensational. Love Freddie as always. Roger Daltry & John Deacon were also sensational. 💖💖💖💖💖

Danke für Deine Reaktion auf das Video und den Song. Ich schätze es sehr, dass Du Dir zuerst alles anhörst und anschaust und nicht ständig unterbrichst, viele andere hier tun das. Grüße aus Süddeutschland.

one of the best

This is such an outstanding song and I love this video. Thank you.

Definitely watch Freddie do this one live in Budapest . His voice will blow your mind ❤️

This is from the movie Highlander and it will break your heart watching the scene this plays through

One is spellbound

The best voice on the world

Que maravilloso tema genial

Queen, not your average 'rock' band.

I love it to bits

Wow 🥰 loved it 😍 thanks liked already subscribed 😁 more queen reactions please 😍❤️ Freddie Mercury ❤️

Queen - GREAT music in every way. This production/ team work feeds a thirst for grand music I didn't know I had; sight, sound, thought/soul, vitality, more I'm sure, all in one performance. Your reaction - fabulous. Thanks.

Who wants to live forever live wembley is beautifully preformed thanks for the reaction

It really is one of the best, but falls under the radar because of such massive mainstream greats. Thank you Highlander for the inspiration.

Esta canción es de las más difíciles de cantar 👑

This song brings me to tears. It takes me back to Heather's death every time.

Queen could not perform this song live on stage with only 4 (or 5, if Spike joined them on the piano) musicians as they recorded it in the studio version so they modified the presentation while still keeping the essence of the original. As Freddie said, there are always different ways to present a song. Queen often reworked a song for a live version (try comparing the studio version of "Love Of My Life" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7hFeER3_ZRQ.html and a live version ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-v3xwCkhmies.html. Their live version of a song was often performed at a faster tempo with a longer instrumental section.

Con el sonido QUEEN espectacular

As perfect as Freddie performs, it's Brian Mays guitar, which always gives me chills. Queen was perfection and was easily the best, modern music can deliver.

Always love your input…you might really like Liar at the Rainbow, it’s early Queen & it showcases the whole band.

Now that you've heard the original you must go to Marc Martel's version of this in his studio with just his piano. It's on his RU-vid channel. His voice sounds just like Freddy's. They actually used Marc's voice in the Bohemian Rhapsody movie. He has his own Queen tribute band and tours internationally. Another must watch is Marc's one-take Bohemian Rhapsody cover with just him and his piano. All Marc's covers are fantastic.

Brian May wrote this song for the film "Highlander".

Now we got: 1-2-3 techno. Personally I love baroque because it rocks. 🤘🤘🤘

Freddy the best singer ever!!

You must do live version. Wembley 1986

Another Queen, Somebody To Love, live in Montreal 1981. Didn't find it in your playlist

I love In my defense. Innuendo. Now I’m here. I want it a.l

This is my favorite . Check Ininnuendo from the same album. This will blew you away. And Who Wants to live forever was written by dr Brian May. Dr because this genius holds phd in Astrophysic

There can be only one.

😎👍

Jeeez I hate how this song whimpers out...it's so damn moving...every.single.time.

Danke, dass du wieder ein Queen-Video gemacht hast 🥰. Obwohl ich Elvis natürlich auch großartig finde! Tolles Video, toller Song - live noch emotionaler als in der Studioversion.

You forgot to react. This song is so good tho I didn't notice until the end.

Probably won't see tis but regardless I'd like /love to see your take on Freddie Mercury & Opeta singer Montserrat Caballe "How Can I Go On...or "Barcelona " thanks and 🙏

this is from the Highlander movies

My song when I founded out that I was pregnant.

John…just subscribed to your channel and noticed you don’t have any YES! Steve Howe is one of our most versatile, premier guitarist of the last 50+ years. Start with Roundabout on the Fragile album. Do ANY song from The Yes Album, Fragile, Close to the Edge and hear what prog rock sounded like in the early 70’s. You will be amazed!

Waooo!!!....Congratulations my friend John!! ...I want invite you to give us your opinion, like musician, reacting to who is considered the best singer of the world...His name is Dimash Kudaibergen, a young singer who handle 7 octaves and 3 semitones of vocal range (An alien)...He has been singing since he was 5 years (he is 28 now) and he can sing in more than 15 languages...But if you decide to react to Dimash for the first time, please don't do it with his most recent songs ... I recommend that you go to the year 2017 and react to the song that made him a global idol ... I mean the performance he did of the famous French song called "SOS D'un Terrien en Détresse", when he participated in the famous Chinese reality show The Singer in that year 2017 ... With that performance Dimash earned the reputation of being the best singer on the planet, so I recommend you start with that one...You have to be prepared because you are likely to receive a flood of views, comments and new subscribers....And I have to give you a warning: Never react to The World Best videos, because they deceived him and treated him very badly.!...I hope to see you first reaction soon and if you don't mind, I'd like you to mention me as the person who recommended reacting to Dimash....Here you have the best high quality video of Dimash performing S.O.S. Live 2017.....ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bDX3FhmyNac.html

I hate that the end of the video is missing - the last line is so important "Who waits forever anyway?"

❤️👑✨🌠

Another example of Queen’s versatility. They could do (and did) any style of music. So glad you’re enjoying the music of my youth! You say Wow a lot when reacting to Queen! 😄

"Innuendo" please

I hadn't heard this version before. I feel such sadness hearing it.

Who wants to live forever? The highlander of the movie by the same name did not want to live forever because his lover grew old and died and the Highlander was left a widow. To go on living with9ut his love. It’s hard to believe Brian wrote this and here we see him playing I think two different organs. But if he wrote it, he wrote the childrens choir parts and the orchestration too. Queens 4 members all had more than 1 number one hits. They all had bachelor degrees.in clouding John Deacon who had an electrical degree that on bohemian rhapsody and this song could have put the vocals and instruments into whatever amps, Leslie’s for keyboards when technology wasn’t there yet. Deacon wrote another one bites the dust which started with his weird bass notes and the other weird sounds I believe came from Brian’s red guitar that he and his father made when he was a young man and had no money to afford that guitar. That was so long ago that people warned him not to take it on tour but I believe it’s still apart of the band. Could this guitar be over 50 years old.

Was everyone in Queen able sing?

try with 'cool cat' ;-)

He had just found out he was going to die of AIDS when he sang this song

Please react to dragon attack all 4 show there talent live 1981 Montreal ty so much

You should listen to Marc Martel sign that song...you'll be impressed

that was a sound track for Highlander the first movie ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TqFoiM0zxdY.html

You've heard this before. Don't try to put it off as a first-time reaction.

Live would have been better.;
