Freddie Mercury - The Great Pretender (Single Version)

[bolanboogie59]

@Tonyde23  WANKER!!

[LoveCurtSmith]

FREDDIE! Love the man! He's heaven!

[fabfatand40]

this man will not be forgotten for generations to come

[Tonyde23]

@fabfatand40 Right on buddy. Especially with all the disease he spread around with his homo lifestyle.

[crharveyuk]

@Tonyde23 What a stupid, insensitive and inflammatory post! Nobody knew then about the dangers of AIDS - it's only with hindsight that we now know Freddie was doing the wrong thing. Had Freddie known, I seriously doubt he would have behaved in the way he did. That's like saying that everybody who smoked in the past should have known they were risking cancer. Still, even as a homo, he achieved more than most mere mortals and left us with the gift of his music which outshines the modern crap.

[crharveyuk]

@Tonyde23 No, he wasn't ignorant - he did not know. Nobody knew about the dangers of AIDS/GRID until 1983/4. By that time, Freddie had been with umpteen gay men. When Freddie found out he had AIDS he 'lived like a monk' thereafter. The information about AIDS came well after what Freddie had done. Anyway, I see from your childish riposte that ignorance and insult seems to be your only weapon. If you don't like Freddie, that's fine, billions of people do.

[crharveyuk]

@Tonyde23 Lol, it sounds like you are the ignorant one - Monks are gay? How do you know? You say that only a few thousand like Freddie, yet millions of people the world over have seen Queen in their lifetime. Do the math. If you were to watch some of the documentaries about Queen and Freddie, you'd find out that he tested positive for AIDS in 1984, three years before AIDS came to the attention of the general public. However, I expect nothing but a petulant, immature reply from you.

[crharveyuk]

@Tonyde23 Are you a complete idiot or just on a wind-up?

[crharveyuk]

@Tonyde23 You are nothing more than a pathetic liar and oxygen thief. You know nothing about Freddie, AIDS or anything. Careful with the last comment, as that's libelous.

[bolanboogie59]

@Tinydick23 .. So, how long have you had Aids? just asking.

[crharveyuk]

@Tonyde23 He has got AIDS, he spouts enough of it on here.

[Tonyde23]

@crharveyuk Piss off nob head.

[crharveyuk]

@Tonyde23 Hahaha! SOOO PRECIOUS!! I win the battle! You can't take it when somebody dares to challenge what little intellect you have, and so you resort to profanities. Can I keep you as my pet?

[bolanboogie59]

@crharveyuk NO!! he's MY PET :))

[Tonyde23]

@crharveyuk You and bolanboogie are both MY bitches like it or not. When you look at it Bitches, when I want to play I just post a message your at my feet. Look forward to hearing from you pair of sad Bitches. You may reply, you have my permision.

[bolanboogie59]

@Tiny21.. Thanks WANKER.... how many times have ya said GOODBYE?? We love playing with our PET...come on Tiny23 GO FETCH! :)))

[crharveyuk]

@Tonyde23 Awww did we make the attention whore diddums wet his pants? What a loser!

[Tonyde23]

@crharveyuk Told you, your my bitches now. I say jump and you ask how high. Your not sure what you are and bolanboogie aint got a clue how to be himself, so he resorts to dressing up as a fat dead guy. Pair of tossers.

[Bartman954]

1:23, Oh myyy!

[iammontecristo]

Freddie could not only sing, but he knew how to rock everyone's brains out. Rest in Peace Freddie. I hope you're rocking God's brains out right now in the here-after.

[polserranolebron]

3:07 - 3:08 the cello ... it's magic!

[eudesal2010]

Grande! Vivirás por siempre

[TheEarepol]

Freddy=not a pretender but the greatest of all  Always in my mind.

[MrMarco2486]

Well, I did not understand the 6 days ago comment, but share the 1 day ago one! Love you Fred!xxx

[jaddajn1]

[shimo8msj]

聴く度に元気になれます！　Freddie Mercury ありがと〜☆大好き☆

[juanalusan]

La hostia, freddie....

[karambolarellena]

[01563carol]

The ultimate showman....A True Music Legend

[TheEsther8]

I love so much this song. Freddie you are the most artirst of the millemiun.

[juanvicentecabostrou]

Es una vergüenza tener un fondo de Rihanna detrás del mejor cantante de la historia de la humanidad. Esperemos que ahí se quede Rihanna, detrás...

[Nucha362]

@juanvicentecabostrou Rihana, Kate Perry, Demi Lobato... si, estamos en la época de muchos artistas, y ninguno excepcional. Por eso sé que todos se quedarán atrás, porque difícilmente nadie podrá alcanzar la grandeza de Freddie Mercury y otros grandez artistas que dejaron su huella.

[tamagochiproduction]

@juanvicentecabostrou eso no es lo peor, lo peor es tener de fondo a Nicky Minaj con su cara estupida ¬¬'

[MorrisonMercury23]

Apuesto que nadie nadie en la vida que trate de hacer el cover de los Platters podra lograr igualar la escala vocal de Freddie al Final de la cancion...

[ratsRfab]

god i miss this guy, he was out before my time, but i look up to him so much, freddie mercury rockin forever xxxx

[philosophersdawn]

You're living in hearts of millions Freddie. You're the greatest LEGEND ever!

[bonheura]

The whole song and video are brilliant but 2:19-2:23 are simply priceless. Love it!

[duckie070]

[Kamila91130]

<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

[SkullOfYorick]

One of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time. Died too young. RIP.

[LadyReha]

[silentbob82]

20 years gone. Freddie Mercury: September 5, 1946 – November 24, 1991. RIP Freddie :(

[sylvainiac]

I absolutely love this video of Freddie. It's hard to believe that it's been 20 years since the great man passed away

[VooDooKaDoLL]

I can't stopped smiling during the whole video, i just love it and love Freddie, the way that laugh himself this way, GREAT!! :D

Not the Great Pretender, he was The Great Genius, my dear Freddie :)

[YouwantabitofBulsara]

Oh yes he's the greatest. And point.

[ericadorigo]

#amoo.. ^^

[pallmalljaja]

[msfyn]

Thank you for sharing this classic. So glad I have a front row seat in Rock 'n Roll Heaven.

[MrTherocker1993]

man i love this song because it shows you freddie mercurys true colours :D and he didnt have to worry about anything because this video was basically about him being gay RIP freddie we will see you one day :)

[melofaiilpiacere]

Freddie Mercury patrimonio dell'umanità.

[Sheldonator90]

how the fuck is Justin Beiber advertised on a video by legends??

[anitanw]

i love you freddie

[Thepomafame]

Love the way the others of Queen sing, uuuuhhh

[PinkFluo]

He could take a 1950's song and make it a success again... He was amazing! :-)

[MrSundered]

What a fantastic performer he was. Hope he is performing to heavenly audiences as he is sadly missed as an artist in a market now sadly lacklustre.

[kiefer1house2]

i like paul mcgann's version more from paper mask lol

[TheBMAvids1]

That's how he looks without a moustache

Best singer ever!

[Stalder12]

the clip is funny jhahaha xD

[Hendrikdevuile]

Is the backing singer with pink hair really a fellah in drag? The features are rather heavy for a woman and the chest somewhat flat. If so that would also fit in with the theme of the song. I have been hearing and quite liking Freddie Mercury's numbers over the decades but somehow have never got to see him in action before. Thanks for the opportunity.

[stella491000]

@Hendrikdevuile Its Freddie....the whole clip is a long joke, typical of Freddie !

[jinxer70]

@Hendrikdevuile the backing singer with pink hair is Freddie himself. Roger Taylor is the blonde

[cipstian]

i love it

[Raichu993]

beautiful song (I thanks the Platters) and beautiful voice of King Mercury! He was a Legend!

[biggestFFXIfan]

He fucking knew he was a legend, the bloody legend

[Raichu993]

beautiful voice! Thank you Freddie for for making me grow up with music hearing as a child always Breakthru!!!

[Raichu993]

beautiful voice! Thank you Freddie for for making me grow up with music hearing as a child always Breakthru!!!

[billiepipersteeth]

The best looking man who ever lived. Apart from me. And Dean Gaffney.

[gerrardbunsara]

[peacefrog1916]

[ex59neo53]

When u get through ur teenage/adult age hearing Queen ,there is no way u can love any artist of nowadays that much .... His death was one of the sadest days of my life :(

[kayleec19]

how can ANYBODY in the right mind dislike freddie mercury let alone this song. hes was a legend back then and always will be 1

[mousinge]

Oh God , the image of Roger ripping Freddie's shirt is now imprinted on my brain forever. And I'm not even sure that's a bad thing.

[PinkFluo]

@mousinge

You're right... :-O I never seen him before!!! And I think Roger is the blonde/ light brown with meches chorist... Oh my God!! :-D

[jichaelmackson1958]

@mousinge what are you talking about...

[me412ful]

mi rola

[justRomyM472]

[sandy123956]

[aleemercury]

OMG FREDDIE ERES GRANDE .....UNA LEYENDA..TODO UN ARTISTA EN LA EXTENSION DE LA PALABRA!!! TE EXTRAÑAMOSS PROSTITUTA MUSICAL!!! <3

[J4KKY]

@Wensleydayle he was a 4th octave singer which is only shown in the likes of opera singers!

[Codude180219]

This song truely captures the power and JUST THE SOUND of this legend's voice. I believe God would be enjoying him as the lead singer in his band.

[Superkat94]

Freddie Mercury. What a Legend. Great video too :) xx

[lizzie200683]

shame on you 10 people who disliked this!! Freddie you are a true legend and are sorely missed!

[TheJellybaby1988]

Why have you got a link for FB and twitter when you can't share the damn video??? You certainly can't share it on FB.....MAJOR FAIL!!!!!!

[federazia]

thats not freddies song..

love you freddie

love your songs.

[lulabel64]

10 people dont know what music is.

Freddie Mercury, legend and living forever.

[debbyguitar]

He was so cute in this video! :-)

[Jbpc9]

why would anyone dislike this?

[Lerlialen1]

Thomas Crane's audition from Australia's Got Talent sent me here. I've never heard this song before but Wow, he really sounds exactly like him!

[lawlor88]

how does this song not have millions of views??ridiculous!!One of my favourites!

[joannie1210]

ssssuuuuuuuuuuuppppppeeeerrrrr­rbbbbbbbbbbbb

[theabbieox]

I love you Freddie! You should have never died, but you will always be known as one of the biggest legends in the music industry. Such a brilliant entertainer as well as singer with a powerful voice. <3

[cfpauloc]

Freddie Mercury - The Great Pretender... Antologic...

[96KillerQueen]

He was beautiful in this video :( <3 <3

[Piero1940]

We will never have a singer like him...Hope if there is a paradise he is singing among the angels and other souls...sigh!

[MariaPiaKillerQueen]

I don't believe in God... but I hope that, if there's some kind of God up there, can trade Freddie for some awful singer =(

[BananaSandwich1]

@MariaPiaKillerQueen freddie mercury is god

[FranciQUEEN4e]

@BananaSandwich1

i know that!

[taracea2010]

Todo un clásico!!,, fantástica canción, y una gran voz, adrmirable nuestro amigo Freddie.. un abrazo.

Anna

[datmadmonk]

he is hands down the greatest performer of all time yes he trumps them all elvis mj all of them and is being gay as no bearing on the quality of is music he is a legend

[PerculaPlushPet]

@datmadmonk I agree, well, general gist anyway. Disagree about him being gay having no bearing on the quality of his music. His experiences of prejudice, repression, social torment and his illness led to an emotive depth which make him the expressive performer and complicated interesting flawed and unique person that he was. "That's so gay" in the artistic context, quite a compliment. Give me that over Tony Abbott [Google him] in his budgie smugglers singing hate, thy will be done any day.

[MrGibraltar87]

yes freddie y'oure the great pretender r.i.p. i remember

[123lindee]

I got no words I adore Freddy xxxxxxxx

[hecfer666]

cesar hot 1 primero investiga y luego te dices tus verdades

[hecfer666]

cesar hot 

[MsCary84]

I didnt know that one of these, ahem, ladies was Roger. I love that lol. He and Freddie always seemed to be very close, if you watch video's of them doing behind the scenes stuff with the band, it's always them larking around. And Freddie looks so amazing in this video. ♥ him.

[TheRealHazuki]

everytime roger dress like a woman, looks so fucking hot 8D

[MatheusBond]

@TheRealHazuki Yeah, in Break Free he could be easily confused with a woman.

[multibirdgirl]

when i first saw this video i started laughing because it was funny, obivously roger dosent mind dressing in drag, like freddie does

[Superlimejuice]

The Best Now ,Then, and Tomorrow.

[PLATOON72]

VEVO SUCKS!

[CritikMann]

It's funny.. In all my years in my career.. I've never realised Freddie Mercury was gay. I am in awe of his confidence of doing this performance. I salute you, Mr. Mercury.

[ryanscottkearsley]

How could anyonedislike this? Freddie is the best singer and entertainer that ever lived!

[kintamaijirou]

なんやかんや言ってもフレディはいい

[MsCary84]

This song was made for Freddie. I love when he chases the woman into the chair, he's so handsome! Lucky lady.

[lucrativeelfmongrel]

Haha, this is such a great video, love all the nods to the Queen vids.

[MichaelMercury90]

Best cover Ever...!!!

[pastcineo]

is there ANYONE hotter than Freddie???, really, I don't think so

[sue213ful]

2:18 roger lol

[nelia214]

esse clipe é realmente demais chega a ser até engraçado quanta saudade desse grande cantor freddie que foi tão cedo muito legal .

[drrnkenny]

I laugh when I look at music nowadays. Take the chart toppers, the top earners, and the concert sellouts. Compare any of their voices to Freddy's. Artists of today would kill to have his voice. The man could have made fortunes from concerts with his ability to sing at his best live. Instead he followed his passion, and just kept making more and more music. More and more brilliant music, with his brilliant voice. Music grew duller the day Freddy died :-(

[acdcrock93]

@drrnkenny Stuff always seems better in hindsight. When you actually think about the chart toppers in the 80's for example, one of the highest sellers was Bucks Fizz. They were pretty laughable, little musical talent, didnt write any of their own songs and had no great songs. Just like today, you had to look beyond crap trend bands to hear the great artists with lasting talents such as Freddie

[Ipernova]

I almost cried...Freddie, the whole world has lost one of the greatest artists ever!

[agatu4877]

CESARHOT1: POR FAVOR INTENTA RESPETAR A LOS DEMÁS ,Y TENE EN CUENTA QUE POR PERSONAS CON TU MENTALIDAD ,OTRAS SE VEN OBLIGADAS A VIVIR UNA VIDA ENTERA DE FARSA ,NO TE PARECE LAMENTABLE!

[braxious]

what a fab cover - freddie gone but never forgotten or bettered

[cesarhot1]

maricones de mierda!!!

[LucHazzon]

This performance is an anthem, a testament …and, possibly, the best cover of all time.

[Capricornfully]

Whaha, that blond woman is Roger Taylor!

Roger, you look beautiful! xD ♥

[andy300570]

Freddie, i miss u more everyday

[glamourgirl2008]

1:28....Is that Mary Austin? :)

[KingSlayAlakazham]

music is definitively dead: 24 november 1991

[GingerRock83]

me encanta esta cancion, es maravillosa, freddie esta guapisimo como siempre. me encanta sobretodo con el traje blanco a lo elvis ¡q guapo! y cuando sale de corisata peliroja (0.19) hasta vestido de mujer estava sexi. ¡viva el rey del rocko freddie mercury! freddie mercury for ever en mi corazon
