WHAT A LEGEND!! | Queen - Somebody To Love - HD Live - 1981 Montreal | REACTION 

MY BAND'S GOT A QUEEN COVER!!!! The Sauce - Another One Bites The Dust (Official Audio) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6eKidFJlqE4.html

The drummer, Roger Taylor, had a better voice than about 95% of the lead singers in other bands.

Hats off to the great Roger Taylor on drums and AMAZING backing vocals

Not just the best frontman in history the rest of the band are in a league of their own¡

There's nothing better than seeing a big dude skiping round the room to a legend .... you've made my day 👌👌👌 ... keep rocking my friend

Gotta love Roger's backing vocals.

1981...NO ELECTRONICS THEN JUST 4 SUPER TALENTD GUYS BUT FREDDIE.....THERE ARE NO WORDS

I was at that Concert!! Montreal 1981.Your tears are appreciated! Words can't describe how Awesome they were!! Definitely an out of body experience!!

Freddie was named the greatest front man of all time...and I don't think he'll never lose that title

I’m a 75 year old English lady……you are really funny but really appreciate our boy Fred!!🇬🇧🌻🇬🇧

Take a bow son. That was a reaction and a half

0% autotune 100% raw talent

Okay! That was a proper reaction to this performance. I see so many react to this and just not get it or feel it. Thank you for a great reaction to an outstanding performance...from the days when music was delivered through talent, not through techno enhancements.My favorite live performance ever from any band. Queen: White Queen live at Odeon, Hammersmith. Freddie's vocals are so clear and the instrumental portion of this performance will blow you away.

No autotune. Just pure and timeless music. 4 great talents. I love Freddie and Queen, hear them every day. Great reaction of yours. Greetings from Germany.

This is what a legend, a talent an artist looks like gentleman…

Finally! A Reaction that mirrored mine at the Queen concert I went to in 1978! I never left the room, but barely breathed and tears streaming down my face the entire time. I didn't care... and I was not alone. Watching the entire band... Deacy on Bass, Brian on Guitar and vocals and then Roger with his vocals while drumming... spectacular, all of them. Freddie, of course, was magical. He sang this song (a tribute to Aretha Franklin) with all the soul in his heart. Thank you for making my day!

The best reaction I have seen to this performance...Hands Down!!!. Having witnessed the inimitable Queen live in concert several times in my younger years, they never disappointed. The loudest, tightest most electrifying and enigmatic band I have ever seen in concert. From the intro to the closing track they were 'in your face' larger than life Rock Gods. All I can say about dear Freddie is Thank God he used his power for good....Otherwise the World would have been in big big trouble.

What a great reaction I was rolling on the floor with laughter. Queen live no autotune in them days just raw Talent. All their live concerts are worth checking out like Wembley 86 they will often go into a jamming session for fun.

This has got to be the most enrgetic reaction to this song I have ever watched. I wouldn't want to be standing beside you at a concert, haha.

Queen concert on 12 july 1986 at wembley stadium is the best performance of queen and for me the best concert of all time

The goosebumps is unreal and the pride I have being a British person and growing up on music from amazing people like queen I was blessed ❤️

I’m always in a Queen mood 😃👑

You need to watch them at Live Aid Now that’s a Tour De Force on how to have 90,000 people in the palm of your hands A masterclass Mr. Rock N Roll

Couldn't AGREE MORE FREDDIE WAS 1 IN A MILLION 😇

Oh my ...the BEST reaction to this seismic performance I've seen

yes, do the 'whole show.' this is a fabulous concert.

Your reaction to magnificent Freddie and fabulous Queen are.... Stunning, awesome, fantastic...just I like people react to Queen. Thanks my dear and welcome to the QUEEN family! ♥️👑

Because of people like you…..he will never die. Thank you

Wow 🥰 beautiful Freddie ❤️ white queen live performance Odeon Hammersmith it's absolutely breathtaking ❤️ Freddie Mercury ❤️

You haven't experienced Queen until you've seen their many live performances. As great as their studio work was, their live performances were on an entirely different level of greatness. Great reactions!

I have been a fan of Queen and Beloved Freddie for 48 years im 79 I saw them in 1978 NYC

I have seen it at least 1000 times. but can still bring me to tears. Love it.

Even though he'd taken piano lessons when he was a child, he considered himself a "beginner" piano player.

I spent my 24th B-day at this very concert. A road trip 5000 miles return, from Alberta to Quebec. The best birthday of my life to date, over 40 years later. Sadly Freddie also passed on my b-day 10 years later. I light a candle and play Who Wants To Live Forever every year to Freddie.

If you're going to do an entire Queen show, I'd strongly urge Wembley '86. A thousand times more energy, plus includes some later, great songs not in Montreal. Song-wise, Fat Bottom Girls, Live at The Bowl. Fire.

My first introduction to Queen was at Hammersmith Oden 1975 when the band played an amazing performance or the song (White Queen) I was hooked from that time on, I attended many Queen concerts and and Live Aid was one of my favourite concerts where there legendary performance was said to be the best performance of a band ever, I also attended Wembley 1986 where Queens performance of ( Under Pressure) was mind blowing, I also attended Knebworth in Stevenage Freddie very last live performance , after Knebworth Freddie turned to his band members and said I don’t want too do this anymore! A sad time for everyone who loves Queen, there greatest hits album is still the best selling album ever in 🇬🇧 Uk , they all wrote hit songs, and have sold over 300 million albums worldwide! Great reaction thanks 🙏

Absolute perfection, both the performance and the reaction. Thank you!

I was fortunate to see Queen during this tour in August, 1980 when they played the Baltimore Civic Center. Freddie owned the crowd from the moment he stepped on the stage. It was definitely one of "those shows" that still stays with me today.

And it's live !!! No auto tune for Queen !!! Never !! That's why they are the best. Legend !!!

So sad, 45 years and an icon.. as you said there will never be another Freddie.

YES, go for gold and watch the Queen set at LIVE AID (global benefit concert for famine relief in Ethiopia). The stuff of legends in 21 minutes of pure joy.

One of the best live performances ever.

Sometimes you tear up because it's just so beautiful! Me too!

This has got to be one of the best reactions to this performance I've seen, haha. Here are some of my other live recommendations, sort of numbered by decade/era/concert: 1) Milton Keynes 1982 is also a goldmine of a concert - the version of "Somebody to Love" from there is preferred by some people to this version, and I go back and forth! Check out "Fat Bottomed Girls", "Action This Day", and "Dragon Attack" (Dragon Attack was also great here in Montreal, but even better in Milton Keynes because of the audience's energy - this crowd was told to be quiet by the producers of the concert footage, which obviously annoyed the band!) 2) There's also the classic '86 European tour (Queen's last, as Freddie was diagnosed the next year). "Under Pressure" live at Wembley has an amazing call and response at the beginning, and Love of My Life at Wembley is GORGEOUS (check out "Love of My Live" at Rock in Rio too, 1985, as well as "It's a Hard Life". "A Kind of Magic" live at Wembley manages to be an example of an okay song (imo) becoming 10x better live; now I love it. My personal favorite is "Who Wants to Live Forever" live in Budapest, though both nights at Wembley are stunning as well. Unfortunately, those are the only three live performances of that song we have on video, as that was the only tour during which it was performed; the song was new at the time. 3) For some classic '70s Queen performances, the fan favorites/must-watches are "White Queen" at the Hammersmith-Odeon in 1975 (if you were impressed by Freddie's piano skills, he REALLY showcases them here!), "You Take my Breath Away" at Hyde Park in 1976, "Stone Cold Crazy" at the Rainbow in 1974 (essentially the first ever speed-metal song and later covered by Metallica, for which they won a Grammy), "In the Lap of the Gods" at the Hammersmith-Odeon in 1975 (it's actually mislabeled - it's really "In the Lap of the Gods [Revisited], which is a separate song that bookended the album) and the original "In the Lap of the Gods" at the Rainbow in 1974 (for Roger's incredible falsetto!) There are many more, and it's hard to go wrong. AND OF COURSE, WATCH THEIR FULL SET AT LIVE AID! :)

Queen/Freddie the GOAT !! Laughed all through your reaction ( thanks I needed that 😂 ) LIVE always best with Queen ( they can do it !) Dragon Attack / Montreal 1981… …White Queen ( a night at the Odeon -Hammersmith 1975 )…Play the Game ( Live at Milton Keynes Bowl 1982 AND Live at Montreal …both great ) All LIVE !! So many more I’ll get back to you 👍😂 ( Somebody to Love also AWESOME at Milton Keynes ) Somebody To Love was Freddie’s Favorite Song ( and mine )

Thanks, Mr. - yep, they took us to church on this one... gotta give it up for the BAND... right? I appreciate your appreciation... this entire concert is GOLD.. hope you see some more of it.. especially "Save Me".. if you watch it, you will see what I mean..

As a band, like the Beatles in a way, Queen always finds a way to "lift" the listener. All the major keys, and the great harmonies, and a front man that MAKES you pay attention.

I love this band! Thanks for reacting to them. There’s also a lot to be said for the incredible drummer, Roger Taylor, who also has a fabulous voice and sings whilst drumming. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 You should also check out their Live Aid performance. 22 mins of greatness! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️❤️

Freddie was pure magic, absolutely the best. Love your reaction, awesome. All members are amazing, best at what they do.

Freddie was a perfectionist!! They gave 200% to their music and fans!! You’ll NEVER see another band like this ever!!! Freddie was the greatest frontman ever!

I absolutely love, love, loved your reaction to Queen, Somebody to Love. I am 71 And I have listened to Queen since they started and Freddie still affects me the way he affected you. Love the whole band with the original four. I will add John Deacon on bass, very underrated. Thank you for your reaction 😁

Goodness gracious. Your reaction was amazing. You really made me smile. Aching cheeks smile 😀. Your reaction was also adorable and enduring. 👍🔥

Please, go on your Queen live journey. They are, absolutely, unbelievable live. Not sure there is anyone better. Live Aid, 1966 wembly...for concerts. White queen 1975 oden. Fat bottom girls...anything and everything live...love of my life, Rio 1985...whatever you choose, cannot go wrong.☺

Jeez!!! You made me feel as though it was my first time hearing it,and I’ve listened to it hundred’s if not thousands. What a fabulous reaction 👌

😂😂And I honestly thought I was the crazy Queenie. Great reaction. I went as far as dedicating my channel to them, just for my own entertainment and something to do with the tears I cry, when I listen to him sing or even hear an interview. Always say: "A day without hearing Freddie's voice is a day wasted." -- Try "Dragon Attack" from the same live concert. Different vibe.- Thank you for these great 11 and a half minutes.☮Sending love your way!

I was lucky enough to see Queen perform in 1978 at Maple Leaf Garden in Toronto Canada what a wild time that was 🎤🎸live Queen is always the best

😆 absolutely loved your reaction!! Thank you for the fun! I agree with your top three favs, they are exactly mine too! :) and I’m putting Freddie at the top! Queen also.... its just hard not to focus on what an amazing vocal talent and stage presence our Freddie had! 😎 Phew... he is a legend!

Even though most of us never got to see Queen live, its fantastic to have such a great quality video of this performance. Queen is going to live forever. Also loved the reaction - pure unbridled joy!

This reaction literally resembles what I felt when I first saw this video. Incredible! Please do more!

OMG 😱 That performance from Freddy and your reaction is just priceless. You really show your feelings 😂Love it.!

You just earned another sub my friend. Your genuine reaction to what was a gift and a genius called Freddie Mercury made me smile. I met Fred back in the early 80's in a bar in London and he'd also smile at your reaction! He loved peoples reaction to his music.

I've been a fan of Queen for 50 years. I saw them twice, on this tour, for "The Game" album, in 1980 at Madison Square Garden and there again in 1982 for the "Hot Space" album. There's another song from this song show called "Save Me" from the Game, it was the 1st time audiences got to hear it live I highly recommend it, it's here on RU-vid.

Loved your reaction to this fabulous performance! For some early Queen try Stone Cold Crazy and In the Lap of the Gods, both live at the Rainbow 1974 and White Queen, live at the Hammersmith Odeon 1975. Thanks for reacting to Queen!

Hmm.. early Queen would be Hammersmith '75 gig for "White Queen", Rainbow gig for "Stone Cold Crazy".. Can't fault anything really but they're cool early examples.

Best reactions, thank you for appreciating Queen's music, more more reactions please, I enjoying your reactions, I subscribed bec of Queen, Queen forever💖

I was fortunate enough to see Queen w/Freddie twice in my life. Yes, they were as good as you’d imagine. This performance of STL is perfection! Not because every note was hit, but the energy and the intensity was off the hook! Watching you enjoy it so much was a treat! Keep at it

Another great one from Montreal '81 is 'Dragon Attack' the shoot over to Milton Keynes '82 for 'Fat Bottomed Girls' and 'Somebody to Love'. Yes, it's the same song but a totally different interpretation, and equally brilliant.

This was actually a concert movie back then! I saw this show at the cinema / movie theatre on the big screen with an epic sound! You can't imagine how wild the show was, as everybody was singing and dancing along ... epic!

Freddiegasm 🔥🔥🔥

THE Best Sounding Live band of all time no one even came close to how good queen were live.... Remember also there was no such thing as auto tune internet or anything like thata and they still sold out every concert.....

I think this hits harder when you realise 'Somebody To Love' was Freddie's favourite song that he wrote. Absolute passion from them all ❤

Love the Milton Keynes version of this.

If you've always loved Queen but never heard Queen live you're gonna have so much fun! Even videos from 1973 74 and 75 are really high quality and they were just getting started. You should start with some early Queen like "White Queen" "Stone Cold Crazy" and "Lap of the Gods" live at the Rainbow 74 and "Keep yourself alive" a night at the Odeon 75 their performances are 🔥

Live.. with NO AUTOTUNE!!! And Roger.. Roger kills it - they all do. They were (and Roger and Brian still are) AMAZING. Thanks for your reaction.. you channeled many, many of us, and how we feel about them.

You're heart just can't take it!!! This is the greatest live prefomance in history...bar none. I love your reaction!!!!! You are on the edge of watching greatness when you get into Queen. They were unique and most of their work didn't sound like anyone else. Freddie sang with passion and perfection. One day, as you really get into Queen, you will come across Freddie writing, producing and singing opera. It will blow your mind. Try Barcelona for starters. Love Freddie and Queen forever❤❤❤❤ Kaye from Kentucky

Save me from the same concert, anything from Wembley 86, Live Aid was also great, also at Wembley he did an impromptu that was awesome I didn’t know someone could make their voice do that… btw love your reactions 😎

Queen is always best LIVE!

I just love his voice....I seriously can't get enough of it. You should really check out the live version of Under Pressure live at Wembley '86 that is 5:31 minutes long. His interaction with the crowd is amazing. I have never seen an artist interact the way he does. Also Another One Bites the Dust Live from Wembley '86 is incredible also. I wish I would have seen him live but I would definitely pay if they have a hologram of him.

Bro, I love your reaction to this. You're acting out how this makes me feel every time I hear it. I STONGLY recommend the full Live-Aid set, Fat Bottom Girls from Milton Keynes, Under Pressure live Wembley '86, Keep Yourself Alive and also Save Me Montreal '81.

"Queens performance at, "Live aid" 1985 is a "have to" reaction. "Save me" live at Montreal 1981. "White queen" live " at the odeon hammersmith 1975. "Fat bottomed girls,live at Milton Keynes 1982."Under pressure, live at wembley 1986.

Wow this is perfectly mixed, sounds better than the studio version

New sub here! LOVE your amazing reactions! You can pretty much pick ANY Freddie/Queen live performance and they will ALL blow you away. The entire concert in Montreal, the entire concert at Wembley, in Budapest, Rock in Rio, and of course THE Greatest Live Performance in history, their Live Aid performance. There are SO many amazing song and concerts, you’ll have TONS to react to! Can’t wait to see what you do next!

Great reaction, as always! You are 100% right that there will never be another Freddie. That said, I have been continuously impressed by the stage presence of Su-Metal for years! She is the closest I think we've come to another Freddie, but still nowhere close to the real deal. You should definitely go back and re-watch BABYMETAL's earlier performances of "Headbanger" as they have a couple of tributes to Freddie/Queen in it between Su's half-mic stand and the gong at the end of the song (an homage to the end of Bohemian Rhapsody, of course).

I don't have the same big three as you but i have to admit Queen is a must have in your playlist !

I was lucky to see them 3 times in concert. 2 of them in montreal, including this one. I was 17 years old at that time. Let me tell you, they sounded much better live. The 3rd time is at the LiveAid concert. This was the ultimate experience, believe me!! I saw other groups like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Genesys,Rush, AC/DC Styx,and nothing came even close to Quren at the Live Aid concert. I still have my ticket, will never part with it. I was lucky to grow up listening to these talented singers musicians. Pure, raw talent !!!

That's How it's Done......Go Live and Hopefully some of their Later Songs also. And Sir...THAT WAS A ONE OF A KIND REACTION.....T'was Great !!!

Ha really fun reaction. Freddie always knocks it out of the park. They all did. This show has many outstanding performances. BoRap from this show is outstanding.

I've watched this dozens of times.. Freddie MERCURY was AMAZING

Live Aid...Live Aid....Live Aid... You'll find yourself in a coma...it's THAT SPECTACULAR!!!

Love you're reaction. I love Queen and even my kids love Queen.

My favorite Queen song!! Montreal is perfection .. Milton Keynes is powerful 🔥 The studio version is filled with layered harmonies! 🎼 STONE COLD CRAZY by Queen live at the Rainbow 🌈 Metallica covered that song!! Watch James Hetfield w/Queen perform 🪨 🥶 🤪 live at The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert 1992.

I posted this in another video of yours but look for the Greenday crowd singing Bohemian Rhapsody, you will get massive chills!

Omg … you haven’t listened to Freddie/Queen live ….. imho it’s the only way brother ! The iconic Live Aid set was amazing 1985 Almost anything from Wembley 1986 (my favs “who wants to live forever” “under pressure “ Early Queen “white Queen” 1975 live at Hammersmith (24th Dec) Liar Death on two legs A few suggestions for you 😊

Best reaction I've ever seen!😂😂 Now THATS how to react to Queen!! Luv from the U.K x

Excellent my friend 😊 Queen was considered the best live band ever!... suggestions? All live performances!.."somebody to love" at Milton Keynes 82' is better ,"love of my life" Rio 85' ,"another one bite the dust" Montreal 81', "Fat bottomed girls" at bowl 82', "who wants to live forever " Budapest... "White Queen" 75',. and go on its hard to choose just one 🤠.."Dragon attack' Montreal 81', "its a hard life " Rio 85', "tie your mother down" Montreal 81', "it's a kind of magic" Wembley 86'

So Good to see someone who appreciates Queen as much as I do.

One vision live❣👑🎶 Great reaction!!

Queen were acknowledged better live than studio - and I was AT live aid in 1985 at Wembley. Queen blew all other acts away. Glorious hot summer day I shall never forget. I am now 52.

Your fantastic!! Loved your reaction 😅👍💕

I'm glad I'm not the only one that gets watery eyed when hearing good music....LOL!!
