Agreed. I have their Live Aid live version of "Radio Gaga" downloaded and on my playlist, because it's a million times better than the album version. Not a lot of bands' live performances are better than the album, but Queen is in that category.
@@edizheijden1382 The only playback Queen used live was the operatic section of Bohemian Rhapsody. This performance is obviously not playback. It sounds a lot different from the studio version.
+ SwedishHouseFifa John was, and still is, an introverted very shy person. It was Freddie who was able to break John free from that stigma during their tenure with Queen. Sad as it is, John was left very scarred after Freddie passed away to the point that he has pretty much become a recluse.
though thats barely even a special thing these days, do you know how many teenagers and young adults are like that? a huge number of them, i guess the difference is that john is an older man, but then again he didnt have what you would call a normal carreer either. so its hard to compare.
The man is wearing shorts, a cap and a kerchief and is more mesmerizing than any other overly costumed singer today. That’s presence. That’s a person who knows his strengths and owns all of who he is.
I'd be honored if some Queen fans would come by & give a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal live performance of RADIO GA-GA in tribute to one of the band's top 80s-era hits and to Roger Taylor (who wrote the song). Live 1-take recording with no autotune or digital editing. Peace & stay safe.
Roger's doing a remarkably amazing job here. You rarely get to see a drummer who keeps the beat that steady and even sings in perfect harmony simultaneously. Hats off.

From my understanding his vocal chords were actually built differently, so it gave him a much wider vocal range. Pair that with perfect pitch and a stellar band that understand how to create the most complementary instrumental track for the vocals and you get this kind of magic.
JD's a great player but "Another One Bites the Dust" is a reworked version of Chic's "Good Times". Bernard Edwards deserves a lot of the credit for ABTD.
@@alyssanicholson5129 no, ... thank YOU!! Us Deaky and Queen fans always stick together! That guy's gotta be "high" on something to dare say Deaky 'stole' that bass line!😉 lol
JD's is not the original. In music the "borrowing" never stops. ABTD was obviously inspired by Good Times, as were dozens and dozens of tracks incl. Timberlake's "Rock your body". No need to get defensive, Nile Rodgers himself has admitted to and demonstrated how he had done the exact same thing. It's much more common than people realise.
I was just commenting how I love his style.. it's like he could careless what people think!! No one will ever do this!! I love how he moves perfectly to the beat
👍, 'Action This Day' is the other clip you want to watch as well. Hits on all those points on why. Its baddass. Especially the end - 'Freddies improvisation, his pipes and his Minnelli cabaret' stage end'

@@zosolemon2 haha I was thinking "348 likes and no replies?" Not one single person felt confident enough to back that statement up with words lol. I don't even notice Rogers voice but that just me. Rog great bassist and decent songwriter too but singer...🤔🤣
I'll never get over how perfect this performance is. I know, you'd be hard pressed to find any Queen performance where they didn't always just deliver above and beyond with a stage and an audience. This band was born to perform and Freddie Mercury is The greatest ever! to grasp a mic and strike the ivories. The greatest! But this performance, Roger so lost in the music and in the zone, Freddie right there as always, delivering beautifully AND knowing it! This is just a perfect example, one of many, of what no longer exists in these current times. Hasn't in a while. Queen were a one time deal (even though they're still rockin' and I'm seeing them with AL in Nov, even though tickets are high). Queen never needed pyros or crazy lights and theatrics, the guys could show up and reach every last person in whatever large stadium they were playing at the time.
Schinkenzeit According to Wikipedia, Roger Taylor sang the chorus in earlier live performances, when the audience didn’t know the lyrics that well. Maybe this is an earlier performance?
It’s the fucking confidence that he had on stage. I haven’t seen anything like that. And of course the AMAZING guitar and bass riff and the harmonization makes it an awesome piece of music to dance to. Heaven.
The simplicity in classics like this are unparalleled. Many people think “professional” refers to “level of talent”... but while these boys were and are very skillful, what stands out the most is how well they structure even the simplest parts into a powerhouse anthem
Who's wondering about the high quality of this Videos from late 1970's, its becouse they recorded this concert in analouge 35mm film-format. If they had recorded it to any digital Tape at this time, the quality was like max. 360p Video. But they decided to the way more expencive 35mm cinema analouge film cameras and this Films can be scanned today with a special digital read-out scanner and put up to 4k video in impressive quality.
I always do that, lol. I still say we should give more recognition to John Deacon for what he brought to Queen, especially this song. He's talented af but the most underrated member of the band. That said, I'll never stop loving Roger for his unique voice and skills!
this is such a good song to play when having a peaceful time, it blows my mind how great this is. I wish I could turn back time even just for 1 hour to listen to it again
Kylie Alvey There's nothing more attractive than a confident man and Freddie had that even as AIDS consumed him. His strength and valor through that made Queen/Mercury fans proud
Nightwish i think with the actual singer Floor Jansen are not far from Queen . That was big epic and grandiose and the charism of Floor are indredible. go watch that for exemple. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JYjIlHWBAVo.html
@@huguesdery9563 I love synthesizers, but I find their heavy use of symphonic backing tracks *really* annoying. At least it really prevents me from hearing how well the live instruments complement each other - something that makes it very easy to hear why bands like Queen and Led Zeppelin are considered as such extraordinary live bands. It is a fine performance, but it's just a medley of songs. Queen's live performance shines, because they created these 'impromptu' live versions, so the songs are elegantly wowen together. Just listen to Dragon Attack / Now I'm Here from the same concert.
@@eurositi Nightwish are alot more heavier than Queen or Led Zeppelin .Nightwish are a Symphonic metal band and the composition level for their songs compare to Queen for example are not at the same level. Tuomas Holopainene the compositor and synthetizer guy compose all their songs and is nickname was the litle mozart . The blend of symphonic music and metal and the pure talent of their musicians and singer make Nightwish so special . I dont know if you know that but Nightwish the band with the most reactions on RU-vid. Reactors,or Vocal coach or composers who film rhem listening and watching live videos of Nightwish live and said their analysis .
You know a man really owns the stage when he can strip down to booty shorts with no shoes on and everyone is begging for more. He always seemed so self-assured, confident and comfortable in his skin. Love ya Freddie!!! Wish I could have met you!!
@@thatdudevj459 And then the angelic high notes he used to have, that I think came from the years when his mother made him sing as a choir boy! He had a neighborhood band younger than any rock star I've yet heard of--7 years old--but it was a ukelele band, I think--The Bubbling Over Boys! Roger's mother got Queen their first gig. They had to use Roger's name at the top, at first, because he was the only well known one in the area because of all those teenage years playing drums And singing And being the good looking draw for the teenage girls--imagine never having an awkward teenage life, but only one spent as the cutest guy in the neighborhood rock band, and then on to Smile, then Queen/his solo band The Cross (with unknowns.) Brian said on the video, "Roger, I always thought you should have gotten other famous musicians for that band." Roger said, "Now, you tell me that."
my kid asked me the other day why Queen liked chicken so much? I said... ummmm, what?! Chicken? He goes yeah, this song and the "gimme gimme gimme fried chicken" song! Probably my proudest parent moment ever (so far)!
@@achyan. Well Freddie wouldn't like you either, neither would Queen. Or actually, perhaps they would. Because they were and are still loving, open minded and accepting people, unlike you. You don't deserve to appreciate the music if you can't accept other people for who they are. Freddie was incredibly talented, and for you to dislike him just because of his sexuality is just tragic.
@@jff1813 If he wasn't Gay, he might already have a child who might just inherit his talent in music. blood won't lie, fruit falls not far from the tree. r u one of them ?
