The Queen Extravaganza - Under Pressure (Live at Montreux 2016) 

agree

Is snape too

luispower1979 He sounds good, YES but just like Freddie....NO F@%$!&G WAY. I can't emphasize enough how wrong your comment is and I'm sure Freddie would agree. Sounds just like Freddie.....smfh

Yeah, I tripped out on that part too.

Exactly like David Bowie? You're on crack. Lol.

Agree. Humble guy, sounds very similar. A monster.

But he can replace Adam Lambert

I disagree, it's pretty boring to have someone that sounds like you. No stage presence either. Marc only brings nostalgia to the table

@@miah5561 But that's now what singers say when they (especially when they get old) see somone else can sing their song as god as them. they will be proud. You disagree I can accept that, if we talk about common case. I mean when somone sounds like you. But this is about singing. You got that?

I don't know, he's pretty much as good as Freddie.

Is he really professor snape?

You took the words out of my keyboard

Its not reincarnation if marc was born before farrakh's death

elijah a Then the guy reincarnated before marc died, then that guys voice when into marcs.

Came here for some Snape comment. Thank you.

IKR?! Probably part of the many reasons why this is my favorite of the songs that they cover.

And unfortunately all 3 have passed from this world...... all too soon

Hahaha

I've watched this so many times and I'm always glad to see him this man that happy :)

I'll be like that too if I would go to a live show like this, this song is one of my all time fav Queen since I was a kid.

the memories of freddie mercury... such a powerful band and voice queen is... great work marc martel's put in to help people.

He even do cosplay as Freddy himself 😆

and it gave Bruce Willis a job playing guitar...

...and Professor Snape...

@@pjmiller8632 ie Alan rickman

ofc they are alive , on people's hearts it is

Mylene Bocala They’ve always been alive. Like the other comment said, in people’s hearts. ...

and Snape!

Severus snape and Freddie great duet

OMG Bowie and Freddie is alive because of them😍

SkyHigh87 ridiculous!

Omg xD

'Obviously' 😂

And he looks like he could also moonlight as a lead singer/guitar player for a chubbier Nine Inch Nails cover band. That Trent Reznor hair.

You mean riddikulus? :D

Lol

TheKiwi Vent dude it’s insaneeee

The Opposite of John Deacon which sounds like David Bowie, damn this band is epic.

and how hard it is to find someone who sounds like freddie a bit , which is like 0.0000000000001%

Hodzic Edin you mean professor snape?

H2daD omg hahahahahaha😂

Hodzic Edin he sure does

Both there voices really compliment each other just like Bowie and Freddy's did in the original

Marc*

The guy doing Freddie sounds like Freddie and looks like Elon Musk.

Anyone know the bowie guy's name?

@@william_d -- Professor Severus Snape.

@@jondunmore4268 very well

The Bowie guy looks terrified and unhappy.

Roger Taylor roger you don’t even play bass

marquisdeceasd u should listen to foo fighters cover of this song..taylor hawkins got decent voice too

Dare I say it. . . Okay I will. This version is better than any of Mercury’s live versions and is the closest to the album

@@philipkinscherf7430 This version is better although they had hard time - Marc explained it in his comment to the video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EYF3RGgV6xc.html

True

@@philipkinscherf7430 it's crazy, to me at least, that people think this guy isn't leagues above Adam Lambert

Because they clearly weren't looking for a guy to nail cover versions of their hits, that's just the crazy fans who can't let go wanting that it'd seem. Queen were clearly after a great performer creating a party on stage and Adam certainly delivers that. If you fanatic nutters just want version to sound like you remember them, go listen to the fucking albums.

I don't get the "They didn't want someone who sounded too much like Freddie" logic. Why not just get a rapper to rap the words or a spoken word artist to merely talk out the lyrics rather then sing then, since we "don't want anything that sounds like Freddie". Adam sounds great and similar to Freddie, whereas Marc sounds more like the real deal. I don't think anybody would really complain if Marc fronted Queen.

Personally, I feel like people would feel as if they're trying to replace Freddie with Marc and I don't think Roger + Bri are all about that. I could be wrong but that's how I process it.

literally queen should keep going for all of time with members coming and going it would be great

Gnawer Shreth adams voice is terrible for queen songs.

Nope

@@MartyMcFly5585 En esa pequeño segundo si estuvo vastante cerca

En momentos suena igual 👍👍

Agree

@@mayconreyes3446 Very clever to answer to an english comment in spanish

better say, freddie is freddie, marc is just marc, different ages, marc covering queen's songs, but i mean, marc is unique too, and how he threats life and how he works, make him special, i know wherever is freddie, he loves marc

Doesn’t try too hard. So natural. Seems like in reverence to both Freddi and David

I can we all can. Replace Adam crapp

he cannot replace someone because Adam has a unique voice like each one Marc may have a voice similar to Freddie Mercury but his is somewhat different

@@jai7266 nigga u on drugs or some shit? Adam Lambert is one of the best singers alive on the basis of technique vocal tone and range..... Never compare this wannabe with Adam Lambert

@@hazrethaman3702 ur brain is turd

@@jai7266 Lambert’s tone hurts my ears.

They're really great! Would love to see them live someday

*Freddie

@@jahadakbar2991 You did, youc ared coz you read her comments hahahaha

Your mom's the best

r/ThisHappened

I can't believe he hit that high note. I've never heard Freddie hit that live

I'm attending one of there concerts I sure wish he worked with may an roger .......he is not screaming like Adam does...close your eyes and there is freddie...

@@JackOwens i just feel bad to quenn fans because i want to say marc is slightly better than freddie (80's) in vocal range, but in other part like charisma, choreography, freddie is complete package. maybe drinking and drugs causing freddie vocal range not as better when he's young

Stop imagining and just listen to the recording of Freddie an David. The version that had Freddie’s approval.

Omg I love your channel. I would love to as well

He is. Marc has performed in the order of 130 concerts world wide this year already and yes, to audiences of thousands. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_Q7hEXTr_zU.html and ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-S1IBrYU5vSo.html are just two such events. I have seen him perform live. He's amazing. marcmartelmusic.com/tour if you want to find if he's going to be near you any time soon.

@@marcfan1822 thank you very much, I had no idea! Just recently found marc, his voice is trencendent just like Freddie! Thanx--

damn right he is lol

mr streamin that late reply though

I think he is Freddie's brother 👍👏👏👌.

Intense

Lmaooo

He’s not at all even trying to imitate him-/It’s obvious he’s far from Freddi physically -but that voice -is miraculous

He gone as near as nobody gone ever. Not the same. But there was nobody else capable to do what he did. And what he does.

exactly 😌

I just heard Adam Lambert in concert with Queen a few months ago, and I felt he was histrionically over-the-top, trying to sound like a big Broadway star. I mean his voice is certainly a good voice, but he actually was straining and trying so hard he got pitchy at times. Marc Martel voice is always pleasant to listen to and of course much more similar to Freddie. Brian and Rodger can choose whoever they like but I will not be going to see them play again. I prefer listening and watching original queen stuff.

@@taffyholvenstot8297 Adam Who? just kidding i know hes great-NOT better then Marc.....no comparison- Marc is so much better to Freddie then Adam is

Hey, it was Freddie's official birthday party, they were all rocking out.

I was just about to write that haha

Marlyn DeQueen your comment just made my day

Marlyn DeQueen ❤️🎀❤️

My jaw dropped when I saw snape on bass guitar

Marlyn DeQueen yes :D

Ashley Okumura not as powerful as freddie but I think he is the best we can get.

What the fuck is the matter with you people?????? He sounds just like Freddie

Wtf clean your ears man, he sounds nothing like him and I'm not a hater I like his tribute band, but gosh, stop saying that he sounds like Freddie.

Alexander 27 you are sick man dumb as fuck, buy yourself some ears, Freddie is good we all know, but now he is not the only one with that type of voice, BEAT IT.

Alexander 27 really dude thanks i love Dick, im just like Freddie.

Naomi Cantora these people were picked by Brian May

Mostly Roger Taylor and Queen keyboard player Spike Edney. Brian's contribution was minimal.

Queen really needs to hire him (Marc) and get rid of that other guy.

He's Under Pressure

* dun dun dun doo do do doo*

Gabi P. OKAY!!

The most amazing thing about him is that he does it so naturally that it doesn't even look hard for him. Man is a natural born singer just like Freddie was. Simply amazing.

Jesus Christ the cringe

plutao he did in 1984 in london I think

Uh...no. Martel barely hit an E5, while the studio version is an A5, which Freddie hit many times during the Works tour.

@@PinkFloydBootlegs not many times, only once in London 1984

@@asierrey5666 he stopped afterwards he said it sounded bad in the studio and hated it no surprise he stopped doing it

his voice is getting weaker every years with his sore throat and the nodules is getting worse too.

Le seul capable de faire une cover du grand freddie Mercury , le seul capable de s'en rapprocher le plus .

He is so happy.

Fr! I don't see how other people aren't like that! I wouldn't be able to help it!

That guy had a blast!

😂

Greetings from Río Cuarto, Córdoba 🙌🏼

Bowie never played bass lol

youandwhosearmy? He means singing...

@@youandwhosearmy6339 lmfao you can't read? On which part did the guy say that?

@Rob G Wooosh!

youandwhosearmy? That’s not a whoosh, you’re an idiot. If that was a joke, it’s a completely stupid one.

Me too

For real

Is AMAZING AND TRUE

No

But when you open your eyes, it's Severus Snape and Elon Musk who sing.

Yes omg * E X A C T L Y* Oh please morron go fak yourself. Listen to actual Queen for once.

@@pantelisdalezios811 damn nigga he was just complimenting them🥺😂😂😂

Hahahahahahahaha

Wtf. Hahaha

I came here just to comment this hahaha

Hahahaha

Omg i thought im the only one who noticed it.

Can I say that is the Green Goblin on the keyboard? 🤣🤣

You're the first person who has articulated a reasoned argument. Bravo!

Adam is Adam. Marc is Queen.

I love every word you wrote. Well done. My thoughts exactly.

You said it best. This needs to go up everywhere. I like Queen songs because of how they sound originally. Marc sings like the studio versions that I enjoy. Even though Freddie tend to often sing it differently most of the time in concerts, we go with it because it's Freddie. Adam sings this wierd off beat version that reminds you it's more like a cover even if he's playing with 2 of the Queen members. I don't like his style that he adds onto it. I'm use to hearing the studio version that I prefer with the certain notes that made it catchy. When i expect to hear those notes but then they go off, I'm surprised with wtf.

​@@ZiShuDragon I agree! I don't mind if Queen (May and Taylor) make new songs with Adam, great. I'll listen to them or I won't, depends on quality, but they are most welcome. However, don't let Adam torture legendary old songs that Freddie used to sing (most of them also write). That is a tribute to original Queen and Freddie him self and Marc Martel does it THE BEST! Full stop! Or, let me say it this way ... Let's have two Queen projects: 1. Queen with Marc concerts - Queen "Old" Songs Tour; 2. Queen with Adam - Queen New Songs Tour; and then let's see which show gets more attendance. Do you dare, Brian and Roger?! To settle this for good?

yup ;o;

I AM !

frankie28web nice name

frankie28web my name is Frankie too

If anyone can replace Freddie it's this guy.

frankie28web i am no Queen Fan. Its Bullshit.Marc sounds as good as Freddy. Objective meaning

Lmfao!!!

Tedson Teixeira David Snape.

Both!

Tim Servius Staffel Bowie Snape

Ozzy Oshbourne I must say

Who speaks with a thick French accent yet covers Bowie well. Uncanny how many foreigners can since English so easily. I get that Doyon is actually a bilingual French Canadian, but unlike Marc, it sounds like French is Francois' first language.

Which is so weird since Alan Rickman and David Bowie died shortly after each other.

PLAY THE HIGH NOTE Wait I- I kinda didn’t realized this till now, That is indeed weird

Great voiceeeee

@Ms. Lima the llama Marc is a Quebecois.

If they did that they'd run into many lawsuits for plagiarism, as long as the notes are higher/lower or the melody is slight different it's techinically not the same thing, so they're just playing it safe.

+ El Chapo Jr. Nonsense, there have been lawsuits for tunes being similar to existing tunes. And they likely have permission to use it. It is on the official Queen youtube channel.

My, and your opinion aren't set in dirt, so we both are just guessing, we don't know exactly whos right or wrong so you can't really say "nonsense".

And as long as the melody or the bassline is different or in a different octave, they still have the right to send you to court, but they're less likely to win.

El Chapo Jr. Yes, I can say nonsense. The lyrics are still exactly the same. It has nothing to do with legal issues.

And Bowie dabbled in acting. Goblin King in Labyrinth.

Francois Olivier-Doyon

Interestingly both the singer and actor passed away in the same year.

The only ones who talk badly of Marc are Glamberts who are afraid Marc will take their fantasy love interest's job, or Freddie purists, for whom anything NOT Freddie is bad. I understand where they are coming from, even as I don't agree with either.

Sweetie, most of us are only defending Adam against the negative things Marc fans say abut him becuase they are jealius that Brian and Roger chose him to be their frontman. I had never heard of Marc until one of his fans came to a QAL video pimping Marc over Adam. Adam fans are also not the ones that create the comparison videos like you yourself have done. (Under false pretense of course.) It was supposed to be about who you liked better and why and it turned into you defending Marc against ever Adam fan that comments there. We are not afraid of Marc...the band has already said they will probably never play with anyone other than Adam. They are now family. The demand from fans for more tours prompted the second go around beginning this summer.

Kitty, there is a whole of 3 people on this thread who prefer Adam to Marc, and one of them is you. Just because you think people are jealous of Adam being the "chosen one', it doesn't make it so. At some point you are going to have to accept the fact that people don't praise Adam because they simply think he is a crappy singer.

Please tell me you are not really that naive to not recognize this is a MM video. No need to answer...that was actually a rhetorical question. Let's use the QAL Corden video as a point of comparison. This video has been uploaded for 4+ months. It has approx. 155,000 views. There are 3,000 thumbs up vs 129 thumbs down which equates to a 4.3 disapproval rate. QAL and James video. It has 2,737 million views in 2+ months. Thumbs up equal 34,000 vs. thumbs down at 738. The disapproval rate is at 2.1%...far better than this video. An interesting note is that a good majority of the negative comments on Adam happen to come from hispanic gamers that troll QAL videos. That connection has not gone unnoticed . It falls into that same category of you saying you don't communicate with Todd other thatn here, but yet your comments prove otherwise. (I know Marc has a hispanic following and his voice just happens to be on various games as verified by Todd in several comment sections.) I can't demononstatre here...but I just dropped the mic!

+slynnc kitty Do you think anyone cares to read all that useless information you keep posting here? Get lost, kitty.
