Queen - The Show Must Go On Acapella

[Alexander87oclock]

[rikkeed]

This is something special. Especially if you are aware of what Freddie was going through at that time. This is what started my relationship with Queen and I'm sure I'll never get bored to this song. Merry Christmas for Mercury and for you all!

[MrSasko1234]

awesome freddie.. i love you

[tremah05]

It's terrible that they let Adam Lambert trivialize that song. Butchering WWRU or WATC is no big deal (alas we get used to it over the years) but this one... Queen is now nothing more than a "brand" of music for karaokes, TV singing competitions, "idols" and such, thanks to Brian and Roger. I guess their only concern now is to get Queen's popularity back in the US, even at the cost of the band's image in the long run... They even played with boybands. John's the real keeper of the flame.

[Ikeisbo]

Oh my God! So much raw power... Even with a Horrific disease. He belts out D5's C#5's. We love you Farrokh Bulsara!

[yostu87]

.... is not acapella.. u just cut the music between..

[Daburcor]

@yostu87 This person didn't simply cut around the instruments and lift the vocal, but rather took the vocals directly from multi-track stems.

Also, for something to be acapella, it simply has to consist of singing without instrumental backing. That's what this is. Whether or not the instruments exist on the full recording is irrelevant.

[MartynTheSpartyn]

Absolutely Amazing! I've been looking for this for a long time. "I'll face it with a grin, im never giving in, on with the show!" that is my FAVORITE part of any Queen song, and the most legit meaning of any song ever!

[VinnieIsHOT]

@MartynTheSpartyn My fave part of this song is "My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies. Fairy tales of yesterday will grow but never die. I can fly my friends!" Every time I hear it, I imagine Freddie as a guardian angel of sorts. When I see butterflies, I also think of Fred, because of this line.

[WallAlfyan]

@VinnieIsHOT Mine too, especially the "My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies" part. Whenever my friends and I sing to this song, we just stop and let Freddie do that one bit. Hunting, powerful and amazing song.

[TheMlonon]

your wings are painted like wings of butterflies

Stunning

[kosimodo]

Whatever happens....

[Yo1969Yo]

He was weak. He was tired. He did it in one take.

[SuperDiamondDogs]

@Yo1969Yo and he was drunk... at last put the cherry on top of the badass sundae...

[Yo1969Yo]

@SuperDiamondDogs Well, I wouldn't say drunk as in flat out wasted but he did take some vodka because of the pain.

[FreddieMercury1994]

Best Innuendo performance, the D5 at 3:06 is just one of the best D notes I ever heared, same for the C#5 at 3:30.

[GoodGuitarSolos]

One of Mercury's best performances, just fantastic.

[SmeGalvao]

W-O-W!!!



[Bitethatdust]

Absolutely spine tingling. Haunting even. Just, incredible.

[Gregsynthbootlegs]

Adam Lambert should look at this video. THIS is how to sing the song (not the over-sung, off-key rendition he did earlier this year).

[TheMrMouth]

@Gregsynthbootlegs Totaly agree but Adam fans are lunatics

[Gregsynthbootlegs]

Haha.

Tell me about it!

[eightwasntenuff]

@Gregsynthbootlegs You honestly think anyone should attempt to replace Freddie even for a couple of shows? Impossible.

[Gregsynthbootlegs]

No, I don't anyone should replace Freddie--he's too iconic!

[Daburcor]

Sweet JESUS!

[xdchantalv]

powerful♥

[Nirvana19Lithium]

i miss freddie :(
