[ Reaction ] Queen - My Melancholy Blues & Drowse 

Finally someone who appreciates the greatness of COOL CAT! :-)

Wow both deep songs...but ‘Drowse’ damn that’s life. All of it

Freddie's piano playing in "My Melancholy Blues" is so very, very good. Along with Roger on drums, John on bass - this makes for a great jazzy trio set.

Nice to see you back on the Queen train. Choo CHOOOO!

That turned into a nice little philosophy session! Those lyrics will do that. "My Melancholy Blues" reminds me of one of those old torch songs from the 30's & 40's. Freddie had an old soul & taste for music from other eras. And Roger's always fun to listen to. Please do "Old Friends" Official Lyric Video, Roger's personal remembrance of Freddie. And Brian singing old-fashioned blues in "Sleeping On the Sidewalk " is upbeat & so much fun!💙

Fun fact: It's nearly impossible to hear, but at the very end of 'Drowse' after Roger says "Now who else do I like?", right before the fade out you can very faintly hear him say "Brian May" in response. I just think that's really sweet. :)

Yes yes please use Cool cat permanently as yr Queen intro. You have my support L! :D

Dreamer's Ball, Don't Try Suicide and a Freddie solo track, Love Me Like There's No Tomorrow. There's another Freddie solo track, I Was Born To Love You, that Queen reworked after Freddie's death. Both versions are top-notch.

Cool Cat has always been a guilty pleasure of mine. Every time you play it, I take a break and dance in my chair. Seriously... it's YOUR theme song! You should play it on the intro to every reaction you do.

It is nice to you are doing Queen reaction again, your love for Cool Cat is amazing, great opening!

Two of my favorite under rated Queen Songs....Thank You.

Can you react to some more of Freddie’s solo stuff? “The great pretender” and “in my defence” are my favorites!

What I think? My first impulse was pressing that thumbs up button when I saw which songs you were going to play. But then you played Cool Cat so I had to chairdance first ;) We told you there is a Queen song for every imaginable mood a human can have, glad you found it to be true! Thanks for making me smile - again. Little drops of happyness man....

Just shows the diversity of these rock gods...

Let's give Roger some LOVE! Old Friends (tribute to Freddie), Gangsters are Running This World, and Foreign Sands. So many to choose from, but these are 3 great ones.

Great job, thank you! MORE queen please!

What does Mrs Mathews think of Queen? Would be cool to see you both do a reaction.

One Vision at Wembley will get you ROCKIN!

‘39 is a terrific sci fi folk song. One of Brian’s best in my opinion. Also Keep Yourself Alive. It’s an absolute Queen classic off of their first album and written by May before the entire band was even together

Lol Cool Cat intro. Love both these songs so much. Drowse is gorgeous with Rogers voice too

Great reaction as always to Queen. I love the fact that you enjoy Cool Cat so much. It's such an underrated classic. Please react to You Take My Breath Away Live at Hyde Park, I think it's 1976. Freddie plays and sings it alone. It is a song that has not even been recorded yet. His vulnerability is heartbreaking and yet he has complete control of the crowd. Amazing moment in history!

Sorrow, but that Voice! Can’t argue with that!

Love love Queen ❤️ You need to get into Brian’s & Rogers solo work. Rogers Old Friends the Video. It’s a tribute to Freddy. 🔥

You can hear the old blues and jazz influences in this one. Great! Please try Queen live 1976 Hyde park -You take my breath away. Also It’s a Kind of Magic live at Wembley.

Amazing Freddie with piano and voice🌺👍🏻

Back on the Queen train... Love it! My Melancholy Blues is one of my all time fav's.... Well... They all are!

So glad you are back with a Queen reaction! Please react to Some Day One Day, Father to Son, Sweet Lady or Man on the Prowl. 😊

My Melancholy Blues is a favorite of mine, but his live versions are almost better than the studio version. I’ve always thought this song was about more than a breakup. I think it was also about how they’d finally reached the point where they’re famous enough to be stalked and hounded by the press and he felt too exposed (“step into my enclosure” like a zoo enclosure) when he was dealing with stuff that was private like relationships. Drowse is said to be one of Roger Taylor’s best songs lyrically, and it definitely fits the kind of songs he tends to write: “These are the Days of our Lives”, “Loser in the End”, “Sheer Heart Attack”, “Tenement Funster”, etc, all talk about the passage of time and age reflecting your perceptions of the world. Next time you listen to Queen, I’d recommend watching the official “Great Pretender” vídeo and then the behind-the-scenes footage. It’s a Freddie Mercury solo single and a cover of a song by The Platters but Roger is in the video and I think he sings background vocals on the track. It’s an amazing song that he sings like he wrote it, and the video is a great laugh as well as an insight into Freddie’s view of his career/stage persona

Y’know I’m starting to think Cool cat is your favorite

Melon-call-eee -a long distended and oddly pleasurable Sadness.

React to Queen Rock n Roll medley 1986 Wembley concert Please!

It has an Ella Fitzgerald vibe to it.

Queen reaction = the best day of the week! Please check out 'Let Me Live', 'Play the Game' and 'Staying Power' live at Milton Keyes next. Thank you! P.S. Love the Cool Cat intro :) lol

Yes that intro is everything!!! Love Cool Cat 😻😻😻

Great reaction! Some other suggestions might be; 'Sheer heart attack' is Queens take on a punk song, 'Brighton Rock' has a fantastic guitar solo that rocks my socks everytime I hear it! ( :

About time somebody reacted to My Melancholy Blues!!!!!!!!

there's not enough pillows on the sofa, needs mmooooorree

Love Queen. Bicycle race and fat bottom girls were always fun songs to me. love the new intro.

Love Drowse - one of Roger Taylor’s best songs.

In my defense. Good song

❤❤❤❤❤oh my god, this song is amazing.

I also think you should react to Bohemian Rhapsody Live at Wembley, you’ve come a long way from “he’s wearin a one piece”, best reactor on Utube!

I'm really enjoying your Queen reactions. Freddie Mercury was a true treasure. Have you watched any current Queen videos? I'm curious what you think of Adam Lambert's lead vocals. Personally, I think Adam just may be the only singer out there that has the amazing range that Freddie had along with similar on stage, front man, flamboyance. In my opinion, he's helping to keep Queen alive and I love that!

one of my favourites

DROWS IS WONDERFUL

Ahh Cool Cat, my automatic big smile song.

I love Cool Cat ❤

Yes! Cool Cat is so underrated!

Melan-colly Blues

love you! my favorite youtuber!

This is for the guy sitting next to me in this picture.....38 years

Just love the old torch song quality of Melancholy Blues, and an extra thanks for a snippet of the gorgeousness that is Cool Cat.

Try live version of melancholy blues in houston 1977

Like we never loved at all - Tim McGraw Need you now Lady antebellum If I die young - the band perry Remember when- Allen Jackson

What a sexy voice he had!!

I miss your queen journey

DROWSE MAKES ME FAST ASLEEP.

OMG, love Cool Cat!!!!!

Miss your Queen reactions...

Oh, Freddie's voice in his lower register is simply gorgeous. And then that smooth transition to the higher register. Flawless. One of my favorites. Roger's Drowse is nice, too. Now, for Fathers' Day, how about Father to Son: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uBoikBIINqw.html

Cool cat intro! Love it!

loveee your intro. Cool Cat 💯❤️❤️❤️

Nice start with some smooth jazz by Queen awesome.

i love that you did those two songs... but "Melancholy" is pronounced "MelanKoly" -- also, I was surprised you did not acknowledge ROGER for Drowse -- it's pretty much all him on vocals (and his writing - Brian slide guitar) -- thank you!

Pronounced “melon-collie”, L ! 😂

I don’t know what sound I made when I saw this new queen reaction from you, I’ve been waiting! Love ur reactions!

Melancholy sounds like Melon-Collie, if that helps you. :)

melon-collie. means feeling down, blue.

You had me at Cool Cat. 💜

chi apprezza i queen ha capito qualcosa di musica ..grande mat

you are awesome. Just had to say that!

Props to you for getting into the more obscure part of the Queen discography!

That special brew. Heniken

OMG!!!!!!!! Thank you, Thank you, thank you L

Good to start with Cool Cat (oh, Freddie's voice)......also good to end he day with.... Thanks for doing some more Queen!

You gotta do dwight yoakam man. Long white Cadillac and guitar and cadillacs

I honestly miss your Queen Reactions. I was your biggest fan. Sincerely Original Fat Bottom Girl from Old HB NYC

Love both these songs. Glad someone is reacting to less known Queen songs. You should react to In the Lap of the Gods Live at the Rainbow 1974. You have reacted to the Revisited version already but not this one. It is a different song and Roger Taylor has some soaring backing vocals that will give you chills! Also Friends will be Friends Live at Wembley 1986 is a great Deacon/Mercury song put in between We Will Rock you and We are the Champions.

Yehs finally you're back

Melon Collie (like the dog) = Melancholy

Adulthood yeah...pfft. Dumbest invention ever! I'm happy and proud to admit I didn't (and never will) jump on that train 🤸🤣

Sorry, living men, no one can compare to Freddie....but you can try!

Man, what took you so long?!? Anyway, I’m THRILLED YOU ARE BACK! Down to business, have you not noticed me and my pleas? You are only 1 of 2 I'm interested in watching. BUT, my MULTIPLE REACTION REQUEST TO YOU, not to mention ALL OF THE INTERESTING TIDBITS I provided, unfortunately my request for a reaction has still gone ignored/unnoticed. Please remember that I’m RELENTLESS, but please do not take it as pushy or nervy. I know that you WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. So, without further ado: 1. Place full ear headphones on. 2. Line up the below Queen songs. "THE PROPHETS SONG” "NOW I’M HERE” "BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY” 3. Crank it and enjoy the true “Queen Experience” Queen intended you to hear. Terry Anne Fogarty 1980's Original Fat Bottom Girl from Old HB, NYC

Melancholy is pronounced k in place of ch melankoly is what it sounds like i have no idea why haha

You should react to All Summer Long by Kid Rock

You have to react to Time waits for no one...Queen just released never released version of this song! it is awesome!

Well well hello there! I love the cool cat intro! Have you reacted to The prophet's song yet? Keep Queen reactions coming, I'll be there.

It gets better, really bluesy, This is for Maurice C. Doyle

Just when you think you seen all queen - Freddie riding on the shoulders of Superman in front of a screaming crowd. Used to be Darth Vader but George Lucas put a stop to it so no video with Darth just pictures. m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JGCjCl7GWVw.html

Hey melancholy is a common word hehe

rain must fall is probably mt favorite queen song, please react to it. Also maybe react to some of roger, brian, and freddies solo work
