Queen - Somebody To Love Official Video (Reaction!!!!) 

Freddie Mercury is still the greatest frontman ever for me.

Freddie was a workaholic...even when he was dying he was making music

Queen's live concerts are usually better than their studio versions believe it or not. Best live band EVER!!! Somebody to Love live at Montreal gets my vote as well.

Welcome to the Queen world. Once you get hooked, there is no way back. Enjoy.

Freddie was known as a perfectionist...he'd sometimes drive the others crazy wanting to do it over and over.

I appreciate your appreciation for Queen's talent and work ethic. And thanks for pausing the music for your comments. Their live shows will also impress you, especially "Somebody to Love" live in Montreal 81. It's a must-see performance.

Queen is Legendary and always will be. Amazing chemistry, totally focused, very harmonized, and a lot of energy. Freddie, Brian, Roger and John, best musicians by far. Musicians are not like that today. Pure natural talent. ❤️🔥

Lady GaGa is in there because she drew the “GaGa” name from Queen’s song “Radio GaGa”

They were a musical force of nature 💜💜💜

Pretty funny how the note at 8:47 Is Roger not Brian's guitar 👌

i would highly recommend looking at their live performance of this in Montreal in '81 because it really showcases their talent and especially Freddie's because his vocals GO OFF in that performance! AMAZING

Roger Taylor wrote the song radio Gaga and lady Gaga took her name from that title

Queen is my favorite band! Their song One Vision is so good, but I think you should react to the music video because it gives you a look a little behind the scenes. Loved this video!!! I also highly recommend Keep Yourself Alive, Seven Seas Of Rhye, Don't Stop Me Now, Radio Gaga, Under Pressure, Who Wants To Live Forever, You Take My Breath Away, Love Of My Life, White Queen, Hammer To Fall, Fat Bottomed Girls, Crazy Little Thing Called Love. They have so many amazing songs! I also recommend you listen to them Live.

If you want to hear more great vocals and not only this, check out Somebody To Love live in Montreal 1981, as some people have already written under this video. 😊

Awesome reaction. Freddie was a huge fan of Aretha Franklin and thus inspired him with this song. I highly recommend you see the movie thats in theaters, Bohemian Rhapsody, its a biopic of how they all met, got started, broke music barriers and totally went the distance. The concert scenes are insane! That being said, I highly recommend you also watch more live clips and recorded concerts, they just had total control over the audience like wizards, the crowds just ate out of their hands!

a fantastic band I brought my first Queen Album at 13 - 1975 when music was music in my opinion 😘

watch "queen at live aid wembley 1985" (full) - officially and arguably thought to be the greatest live performance EVER - in front of a 100.000 people live and endless millions on tv

"microwaved" is the exact best descriptor for music today I have ever heard, ever. I mean great reaction as always but that sudden word choice just blew me away and I had to comment

You should listen to QUEEN "SOMEBODY TO LOVE" live in Montreal in 1981 You will really see Freddie, Roger, Brian and John at their best and get to see Roger Taylor's amazing backing vocals.

Freddie's 5 Octave Range...‼‼ 👂 🎧🎼🎶🎤🎵🎹🎶🎸🎵 Was and STILL is AMAZING‼‼ He is Undeniably the World's 🌎🌏🌍 GREATEST SINGER/SONGWRITER, ENTERTAINER, and FRONTMAN of ROCK‼‼‼ HE IS FREAKING ABSOLUTELY AMAZING and ICONIC...‼‼‼ 💗💗💗 👑🏃🚶🏃👑✌✌✌ I also just want to mention...!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE, LOVE, LOVE 💗 that Freddie Mercury 'Growl' in this Song!!! 💗💗💗

Thank you for loving the greatness of Queen....AND FREDDIE MERCURY Messenger of the Gods.

Man, you HAVE to see the live version of this, it's OFF THE CHAIN GOOD. Montreal '81!!

Listen to how they have a call-back like in church music from the South ! Also... Some of the lyrics about " working hard " " EVERY day "..... " Taking my hard earned pay to a home alone " ( I'm paraphrasing there just a bit but that's the sentiment conveyed when you REALLY listen ) Then Freddie talks about getting out of this prison cell ! ? In a real and figurative sense, what brother doesn't understand ..... THAT ? ! Matthews Fam.... Can you imagine if Prince was alive and he collaborated with Tina Turner to do a version of THIS ? She sings Freddie's part and Prince does the guitar solo ! In the way that only his Royal Purple Badness can do ! Please let me have your thoughts on this.

In the Bohemian Rhapsody movie there's a scene that perfectly demonstrates what you were talking about with the late nights of perfecting the songs. Basically they are recording Bohemian Rhapsody and there's the high "Galileo" that the drummer has to sing and Freddie just kept saying "you have to sign higher" and the drummer had to sing the high not like 20 times until they got it right and all he said when they were done was "my balls feel like their in my chest. Are we done now?"

Days of our lives video was Freddie's last one. He passed shortly after. It makes me cry Everytime I watch it. So sad. He is a legend. Check out the audience at a green day concert. Before their show the whole crowd Sings B R word for word. That makes you smile. Only Freddie Could cause that 20 yrs after he was gone at somebody else's Concert.

Freddie doing a five-finger point to introduce the guitar solo. Like Freddie's the maestro, the magician, the wizard in charge of controlling the music. Amazing!!

If you want a foot tapping 'feel good' song listen to Don't Stop Me Now.

Do "Show must go on" and "Who wants to live forever"!!

Freddie played piano with his hands flat, he gets so much power out of that piano even with the unorthodox placement, he and the band were genius

Queen 👑 one of the best bands ever. They all have a touch of genius. Freddie Mercury was absolutely perfect. He was everything. RIP our beautiful Queen 👑

Thanks for tje respect for these guys . Flawless at their craft . Brilliant musicians....all of them...Freddie at his greatest. Yes this was when music was REAL music 🎶

I’ve really enjoyed watching your musical exploration. You should check out Lynard Skynard Freebird live in Oakland. It’s not just a song but a total vibe out experience. Music has really changed since the 70’s-80’s.

This video is amazing I am very amazed how everyone sang the chorus together and the guitar solo is wow

Your kind comments are dead on, nice to see due respect to Queen and Freddie’s legacy! Great job!!

In 1968, "Hey Jude" by the Beatles was over 7 minutes long and stayed number one on the charts for eleven straight weeks.

You need to listen to “Dragon Attack”...Totally different than what you’ve already heard of Queen, with some *seriously* funky bass

Now and then I just have to go back and listen to your Queen reactions. You were so good and I still love Queen.

I grew up listening to queen and even listening to this today it gives me goossbumps!! We just dont have real musician bands like this anymore!! If you want another queen one to listen to listen to try "it's a kind of magic" from the film highlander or "we are the champions" but watch the Live Aid performance and check the last line....

Yes, that was the way we made Music: all together in one room, some coffee and beer and many cigarettes and a lot of heart combined with work.

I have only just found your channel and as a life long Queen fan, I will be watching all of your reactions. I love that you actually appreciate the work that went into their music. This has always been my favourites song of all time. I heard it when I was a child of 9 and instantly fell in love with it and no other song has ever made me FEEL the way this one does. I would not normally ask a reactor to react to a cover version but I would love you to watch the cover of this by the late, great, George Michael and the surviving members of Queen, done at the tribute concert for Freddie, after his death. It is a very good cover but it is worth watching just to see the crowd join in and actually take over the vocals of that classic line near the end of the song. Sending love and best wishes, Helen in the UK xxx

This song is part of my childhood, and my first intro's into pop music. I loved this reaction, Freddy Mercury was my idol back then, i only increasingly start to understand how well queen music was made. Watching this reminds me 1979 - 1980. Very pleased it is still good for later generations!

Is it me or does queen have 4 best voices in a rock band ever????

That voice was a gift!

Freddie Mercury is the best Rock vocalist ever, period. If you really want to appreciate his talents, watch this song live in Montreal. React to that one, you won't be disappointed.

Awww look.. this is before u became such a big fan!!!!!!!!!!

Happy feet knew what they were doing when they put his song in that movie 💯😎 #Queenforever

You'd better watch the Live in Montreal version of this song - that isn't coffee in the cups on the piano!

I want to see you react to the Live Aid concert...it's only 20 minutes and they are amazing live...

LEGEND ! Beautiful.... Love the old ICONIC bands like Queen and God Bless Freddy ! R.I.P.

Please listen to them all I was 18 teen when Freddie mercury died I am a huge fan always will be. Love watching you listen to them love you

Your Queen reaction videos are my absolute favourite! I came in at your Freddie tribute then went back to watch you fall in love, like the rest of us. Every Queen fan love story is different and beaut. Regardless of the generation. Welcome to the family❤

This song is from the album A Day At The Races (1976). A fine album from beginning to end. Worthy cuts are Tie Your Mother Down, White Man and The Millionaire Waltz. Love Queen Forever!

All of his live performances were live.Im saying this bc today it’s not all live it’s the singer lip syncing.His live performance are legendary bc you can see him sweating and giving it all and still sings as good as he sounds in the music videos.

By the way...if you wanna take a real Queen ride and you wanna take it seriously, I would recommend going chronologically so that you can see how they evolved. Also listening to the live versions of the songs is a good idea as Queen were the best live band.

The rendition of this song at the 1992 Freddy Mercury Tribute concert with George Michael singing with Queen is an amazing live performance.

I love ❤your thoughts and research about songs and history it helps and how much respect you have for them! Now you will see why they are best just my opinion and Freddie💗 is just phenomenal it's so sad that he is not with us anymore 😞 You will fall in love with queen and become their fan without even realizing that. I also like, that you are watching remastered versions 1st when you will see same songs live concerts it's just another level. Freddie is great performer and many more things. You will love him. This is just a beginning my friend. They are legends ❤ R.I.P Freddie we love you and miss you ❤❤❤❤ Well

I'm smiling' . . . great observations. Love me some Queen. Appreciating you.

This was a favorite. Also loved the show must go on.. I want it all.. dont stop me now.. so many good ones and of course bohemian rhapsody... 💖

The meaning goes as followed Freddie: have you heard this woman i think Aretha Franklin yes yes lets do it Queen:OK i mean sure lets do it A few weeks later this happens

When they're all on one mike, the microphone is shaped differently. Can you imagine how much care went into keeping their bodies limber to play music, and their voices healthy? Such beauty... I'm just floored, by Queen especially.

Some beautiful words in there my bro! Definitely work ethic like that is non existent these days.

Man they sure TF can wale!!!! His voice was simple AMAZING!!! I just adore Freddie Mercury! He had a HUGE overbite and buck teeth and was picked on for it. But that so called "birth defect" was part of the reason he had such octave range!!! That wasn't a curse, it was a gift to him! And he was a gift to us! ❤

When you arrive at "another one bites the dust" please take note of Freddie's hats. He switches hats every time he walks out of the frame, but nobody noticed it up until now. A fun note :) They are blue, yellow and white :)

For those Queen fans, The Matthews Fam reactions to rugby are really intelligent and insightful, easily one of the best reactors out there. Clever guy.

Queen still has the largest FAN BASE

I’ve watched you since you fist discovered Queen - you give me such joy when you found respect for them- you were so funny at first- then you went- hey- these me are genius! Anyway find you again tonight - great reaction again!

Watching Freddie interact the audience is the coolest thing about him. Any live version of "love of my life" or the vocal improvisations before "under pressure" are great things to watch.

Keep Yourself Alive and '39 are amazing songs

My favorite Queen song...This song was inspired by the Gospel-esque Soul sound of Aretha Franklin. Freddie Mercury was a major fan of hers.

So young, so much more to learn. This is cool. BTW: THEIR "DISCO” (HEAVEN-FAMOUS GAY BAR IN NYC) ALBUM HOT SPACE almost sunk the Queen and they’re coming back. Such fun!

Love of my life is excellent, Freddie wrote it for Mary Austin the woman he considered his wife and left most of his estate to when he died in 1991.

You need to do a reaction to them from Live Aid at Wembley. You wanna talk about goosebumps?! They performed not only for a live crowd of nearly 100K and millions around the world.

I love Roger Taylor (The Drummer)

"killer queen" was one of their first big hits.

A little trivia for you. Brian May, the lead guitarist, is also a real scientist. He has a Doctorate in Astrophysics. To put that in easy terms to understand, Brian May is an ACTUAL Rocket Scientist. All four of them are extremely intelligent people.

Have been watching a bunch of videos of people discovering Queen ----- I enjoyed your review style the most. Nice to meet you :)

React to Queen Live Aid 1985 Queen live 20 minutes of the greatest .

The most nostalgic song for me! Queen succeeded in bringing gospel into rock n roll and it sounds amazing. Freddie Mercury himself has even said he likes this song better than Bohemian Rhapsody! No joke!

Also Queen live "Save Me" from Montreal '81 Live, Freddie's vocals are simply AMAZING in that show (titled: Queen - Save Me (Live) [High Definition]

A Queen tour! Thank you! Go for some live: Under Pressure @ Wembley (72,000 people. Their 'Magic' tour was all stadiums - 250,000+); any cut from Live Aid, or all of it. YEAH! glad you've joined the Queen galaxy. Forty years later still dominating the world of rock&roll... and our hearts. Thank you Freddie, Brian, Roger & John.

Have liked your 2 reaction vids about Queen! You should also check out "Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie. I'd suggest that you listen to the studio version first. You might also want to check out the live version that Queen did without Bowie at their Wembley stadium concert from the early 80s. That particular concert is often cited as one of the best live rock performances of all time.

Please react to I want to break free, another one bites the dust, Don’t stop me now, we are the champions, and the Africa Live aid they did too.These are all by Queen watch them as soon as possible bc I feel like you need to watch them.Its random but Freddie was bisexual I’m saying this bc you said you wanted more information pls learn more

Lady Ga Ga took her stage name from the Roger Taylor penned Radio Ga Ga. The dedication to crafting music is a lost art in recent years. Thank you for recognizing their hard work.

somebody to love-----live '81 montreal-----best ever by any artist,period.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I hope that your younger viewers listen to what you said about Queen' s work ethic. Back then there was no autotune to fix a mess up. You simply redid the whole song over and over. One album could take up to 18 months to produce. That was 6 days a week 14 to 16 hours a day in the studio. That is dedication to their craft. Thank you for pointing that out.

my favorite Queen Song!

Queen legend, freddie inmortal!!!!

Great reaction!! I really enjoyed it! Please keep on checking out their music it’s definitely worth it! Here are some interesting facts about them you might want to know: The band consists of: lead- vocalist (and piano) Freddie Mercury, lead- guitarist (and vocals) Brian May, drummer (and vocals) Roger Taylor and bass player John Deacon. - They sold over 300 mil records , what makes them one of the top 3 most successful bands of all time! - Every band member wrote at least one no. 1 hit ( a so far unbroken record)! - They were actually the first band ever that filled whole football stadiums with people! - After the World Guinness book of records they have the oldest fanclub of all time! - Their song Bohemian Rhapsody was voted as „the greatest pop- song ever written“ and their music video for this counts as the first real music video in music history what makes them the „grounding fathers“ of today’s music video era! - Until today they also hold the world record for the by far best- selling album in Great Britain ( „Queen: Greatest Hits“), which was in the charts for 500 weeks or to say it otherwise for 9 and a half years!! They made such great music and I bet you’ll enjoy all of it🎸🤟🏻 Maybe check out „Somebody to love Live at Montreal“ and „Liar (official video)“ next!!👍🏻 see ya! Have a nice day! edit: If you’re really interested in them and want to know more about them maybe check out the „Days of our lives“ documentary about them! It’s really interesting and also entertaining! (Maybe do a reaction to this?)

Damn bruh!! I wish you reacted to the LIVE version from Montreal in 1981!! The homie Freddy was drinking beer off his piano, and he was killing it!! Probably the best version of this song!!!

The movie brought me here Mr Mathews. I grew up with Queen. As you know, RU-vid is now flooded with Queen reaction videos. Most are terrible. However, your video grabbed and held my attention until the end. Many any because if your comment delivery. Keep up the good work and thank you... Joe

Another great reaction! Thanks for the video. 😊

This song was written by Freddie from his inspiration for Aretha Franklin whom, sang at Freddie’s funeral.

Now back in the day , that was called Arena Rock. Filling baseball stadiums , Football fields , Hockey Rinks to capacity and selling out in minutes. Waiting for the radio station giving away tickets and waiting to be the fifth caller or answer a trivia question correctly without googling it because the internet was just on the horizon. Waiting for front row center tickets. Those were the good ole days

Under pressure with David Bowie and to hear his vocal skills listen to Barcelona but to embrace his beautiful voice you need to hear love of my life

Check out Brian’s shirt when they were playing at the concert, it is crazy. Like you said about songs being longer, you have time to actually enjoy it.

I grew up listening to Queen because my parents were fans in High School. I like the two you reacted to and The Show Must Go On Another One Bites The Dust Under Pressure Don’t Stop Me Now Killer Queen ... then there are the classics We Will Rock You We Are The Champions

Cool reaction man. I appreciate that you will be under pressure (pun intended) to play 80's queen. But I would suggest you keep mixing it up a little with some 70's queen. They have some groovy, hard rocking tunes with some wild vocals. Saw them live 3 times in the 70's. That being said try and stay away from live versions. Listen to studio or official videos to capture the essence of their music. Queen was a hard rocking kick ass band....

your reaction and comments NAILED IT right on Great reaction vid ! Queen was a few million lightyears beyond their time. They didnt just write music, they crafted Masterpieces much the same way a classic composer like Beethoven did in his day

You are by far my favorite RU-vid channle . My favorite vids are when you react to Queen and Weird Al. I met weird so over the summer.Queen has been my favorite band for so long now. Somebody to love is my favorite song by Queen.:-)

Freddie is perfectionist..
