  • masterpiece , thanx for sharing , cheers

  • Lets be honest. This version of this song with QPR kicked so much ass. It shows the chemistry, musically, they have together. Its a pity their album wasn't given a chance. The expectation level expected by the general public demanded #1 hits from guys who are barely putting out THEIR FIRST ALBUM TOGETHER. Of course it won't be perfect as you have to give a band time to GEL. But it had some good elements in it that should propel them to think about a 2nd album together. Sadly, it wont happen.

  • THIS is how it is done!

  • bloody hell how does he survive in this heat with leather trousers long sleeves and jumping around????? (AND long hair sometimes!)

  • The pros at work.  Awesome!!! I love it!!!

  • rodgers did very well with queen i think.

  • to the members of queen, so it's not freddie caliber, but sometimes primal music is good

  • absolutely fantastic version of song

  • Excellent camera work; gives a real sense of the size of the crowd, and the different angles make for a much more interesting video. Of course, any music video which includes Brian May is an ongoing part of the education.

  • I wonder if Paul Rodgers will ever know how really super cool he is. 'Alright Now' with 4,000,000 radio plays. That's awesome!!!

  • Where's John Deacon?

  • @AlanSessler John Deacon has retired. The last time he played together with Brian and Roger was (I believe) in 1997. This song was filmed at the 2006 tour from Queen+Paul Rodgers.

  • 10 people ain't All Right Now!!!!

  • That would be Paul Rodgers, father of contemporary rock singers and one of the greatest vocalists ever. Freddie was in knee socks when Paul released his first album at the age of 16 with Free. He's unassuming, unegotistical and a gentleman. Possibly why you make an irreverant statement about a true giant of rock and roll.

  • 10 fans de Justin Bieber han abierto este video.

  • EXCELLENT!

  • what a great voice

  • That is the what Rock and Roll is all about right there! God I love it!

  • All Hail The God of Blues Vocals! Rodgers Rocks as good as ever! What a combo this is and the respect shown to Kossoff by May is exemplary! Rock On!

  • I love the MILLION WATTS Brian's guitar is crying at.

  • YEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

    

  • FOREVER AND EVER BRIAN MAY!

  • If some old men do it together - it could be fu(#!n' awesome - like this performace!

  • This is amazing. This song could never ever be done better.

  • Great version, excellent guitarrplay, but i miss kossoff =(

  • Wow!

    Brian looks like a sweet english gent at 5:10

  • Rock 'n' Roll will NEVER die!

  • Still rockin after all the years

  • hell yeah....love it...thanks for the post,,,for the nine people who disliked this...wth...is wrong with you

  • hell yeah....love it...thanks for the post

  • wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­wwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

  • he married a blonde

  • wow talk about holdin strong!

  • As much Q + PR is a tribute to Freddie Mercury, I thought Brian did a beautiful job of recreating Paul Kossoff's original solo on this. Magnificent. That's what you get when people play for the team !

  • 5:12 i have nothing to say

  • Did someone melt his face.Still a great voice.

  • lol hes head nodding at 2:47

  • Comment removed

  • Great cover! and Paul is yum!

  • Damn This is good! YouTube should put this on the home page so everyone could see & enjoy it. Thanks for posting this gem, hats off to you :)

  • is roger playing over a fox amp ?

  • Such a pitty ,that sweet rare things like the postings of frozenfish 91 got ereased by stupid lazy r.-companies. . . . what kind of harm do they fear ? Dumb lawyers paid by idiotic recordbuisness-jerks - They`re what they`ve been and are most of the time . - just destroyers. Fuck you !!

  • Wow...Brian May did Koss proud there....superb guitar solo.Great rendition of a great Free song.

  • 7 people are in trouble!!!

  • @nickosmal I'm not in trouble :)

  • Paul is with Queen at this moment? I mean ....giving shows?

  • Fun fact: Brian May is an astrophysicist.

  • @11spike7 Not just that, but he has a Ph D in astronomy.

  • Danny Bonaducci is fronting Queen!

  • isn't the bass player that dick that used to play with BOC? I recognize that do-rag. Not trying to sound like a total ass--he is talented as hell. But I know a few people who met him when he was with BOC, and he's an arrogant bastard, from what I hear. Maybe he deserves to be, he's damned good. Brian May kicks ass on this, as always. The drummer is a big fat dude, but good. Kind of reminds me of Bun E. Carlos. He needs a cig. Kick ass song, great band.

  • Never knew Chuck Norris was such a good singer!

  • @matzchase chuck norris can do all

  • wow 303 everyone with hands in the air real moving

  • This is bloody brilliant! Rock and roll must keep people young. These 50 something year olds are showing us how it's done......

  • @Transterra55

    Could not agree with you more except for one thing, Paul (and probably some of the other guys) are actually 60 something (Paul was born in 1949).

    How time fly's when you are having fun. - eh?

  • best rock song/best singer for this song and best rockband ever!!! :DDD

  • I agree with neechees5150. Ego is not an issue with Brian May. He is a profesional artist. He concentrates on being the best guitar player he can be and he is one of the best. I have seen him play with other bands like Def Leppard and he clearly is not interested in being center stage at all times. Brian May's performances, no matter who is he performing with, are a real pleasure.

  • Wow!! I cannot get enough of Bad Company. They are unique and they are legends. I am gratful that I have access of their music. Love Paul Rodgers vocals. I enjoy watching them on the stage. Hugggggggggg to Bad Co.

  • Paul Rodgers ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Paul Rodgers is like fine wine-just gets better with time.

  • @SweetLouF64 Fancy him more now than when he was younger!!

  • Paul Rodgers's excellent !!! Great performer, great songwriter, great singer. It's true that he can't sing Queen's songs like Freddie, but he does a great job.

  • Fantastic!

  • OH MY GOD!!!!!!! THANKS FOR POSTING!!!!!!

  • i wanna hear this with AC/DC line up and paul rodgers

  • @BillysBMW You're right, mate, I think that "Highway to hell" is a little similar to "All right now". Both are great songs, AC/DC and Free are great bands too !!!

  • This music is as fresh as it was more than 30 year's ago. Then, I can recommend to you without reservation, these three great artists non-angrophone. You can find them in this Youtube.(1) Fiorella Mannoia "Quello che le donne non dicono (what women don't say)" - Italian Great lady singer.(2) Iwasaki Hiromi - Japanese "Anata" or "Hatachi Mae" - Japanese lady singer who is almost equivalent toMs. Celine DION.(3) Patric Fiori "Marseille" Corsican

  • he has a really sexy voice. Nice!

  • that's the way to do it lol.....

  • can i have tha name of the bassist

  • @GreatQueenFan Danny Miranda

  • fantastic ,when is he hitting tx

  • This is worthy of the rock 'n' roll historybooks

  • Paul Rogers! The only man alive worthy of being on stage with Queen.

  • its great! awsome song and brillant performance

  • so glad rodgers came to his senses and stopped touring with what is left of queen

  • sooooo excellent

  • paul-he's still hot

  • It is great to see a big name guitar player like May really try to cover another musicans material and do it well. This requires leaving the ego parked at the stage entrance and going out and performing with integrity and dedication. Good job Brian

  • @neechee5150 Well said. You could also say the same about Taylor. Bad Company's stuff is decidedly simpler than Queen's and I think Paul Rodgers did a very good thing by hooking up with these guys.

  • @neechee5150 Totally right ! Long live Queen + Paul Rodgers, long live rock and roll !

  • @neechee5150 I always thought Brian May was a very humble guy. I had his guitar video and Queen's Magic Years and have read lots of interviews. Never full of himself.

  • @neechee5150

    Well, 'All Right Now' is a very simple song (and I mean that in a very good way) -- pretty much every garage band in the 1970s and 80s could play it. Actually it looked like the Queen guys (May and Taylor) were having a lot of fun doing it.

  • @jaystarstar 'pretty much every garage band..could play it" and 99% of these bands and successful cover bands did not use the proper chord voicings, their tone was sub par, their phrasing was terrible, and they overlooked so many of the nuances of Kossoff's sytle and of studio performance of the song.

  • @jaystarstar agree neechee...it's simple but hard to play really well...and agree again that May and Taylor had a ball playing it....back in the day heard alot of bands play it badly because it was relatively simple...but it's so fucking subtle,,,you have to hit every string just right....know what I'm saying?

  • @jaystarstar It propably helps Queen members were there to hear Free so they can relate to the song and the time.

  • pretty good but original is more classic and raw especially chorus in comparison.

  • i am the best guitar player of all time thank you  very much. . what does everyone think of paul rodgers wig. . . dont get me wrong i love him singing he is brill. . .but the wig does my tits in

  • Comment removed

  • It's so awesome, but definitely not the best version - it's without Koss

  • BRILLIANT

  • paul R is the BEST voice in rock , bar none !!

  • Brian May is a big tall bastard isn't he? Very clever and a lovely clear guitar

  • This is only really music! And very great sounds!

  • I love how Brian played the correct notes of the solo, and did not add any extra notes. Thats what I do playing live, play it right, everyone knows this lead and wants it played right. KISS, keep it simple stupid!.

  • @gblespaul Well, he played it like it is on the single but Kossoff played the solos differently for every performance ... and I gather it was difficult to stop him, too! Somewhere on here is a rare live recording made in Australia and I was v surprised to hear the solo was quite different from what I have come tom expect from the single.

  • When you good, you good! Alright!

  • superb

  • iiiiiiiiiiiii

    ccccccant

    help

    it

    ?

  • g i a n t s

  • Best Live ever!

  • I Want It All Right Now

  • Simply awesome.

  • Brian's guitar tone sonds so much better tha the one by Neal Schon

  • and Roger's drums sound so much better than the one by the-drummers-of-Free-and-Bad-C­ompany-that-i-don't-mean-the-n­ames

  • God love that bass when it kicks in...the song just really takes off from there.

  • Live music at it very best

  • Paul rogers musta found the fountain of youth. Sounds great.

  • @jockamofeena Yeah its sweet young Pu**y

  • @jockamofeena Paul Rodgers is about 61 years old and wealthy enough to afford plastic surgery and hair dye. I'm glad his voice is intact.

  • @jockamofeena well he did write the song i think

  • A lot of aftermarket attempts on covering classics don't make it, even with part of the originals, but this is KILLER!

  • You said it! Brian can't quite manage the vibrato that Kossoff got, but he sure does bring the crunch. A big departure from his usual style, with all those flowing violin lines.

  • when Free played this it was amazing but the thing is many people don't realise the original was done by Free

  • BEST!

  • Boy, the fur really flies with this one. Paul Rodgers is about the only hard rock vocalist from his era I can think of who's kept his pipes intact. I can barely listen to Robert Plant and Roger Daltrey anymore, but Rodgers can still belt.

  • a blues voice like only a true Yorkshireman could have ..

  • I cannot think of a less Queen-like song from Rodgers' long and distinguished career. But then, Rodgers may be the last singer I would have picked to sub for Freddy Mercury in Queen. That it works so very well is really incredible to me. Brian May, one of the most innovative players of all time, is actually taking a risk with this song because, for all of his skill, a blues player he is not. Sort of like listening to the Yes version of "I'm Down." The incongruity makes it all worthwhile.

  • Paul definately has the vocal skill to be an acceptable stand in for Freddie but the on stage persona is too different

  • @Dogboy27712 Well put. Pretty much summed up my take. I'm rather sad that they're no longer touring together.

  • Well said.

  • Got to admire Brain May on lead guitar..poor soul... he is stretched with this piece..

  • added to favorites :)

  • 1.57 (L)___(L)

  • Freddy is drama, is Queen but Paul is ROCK, is King..... (I'm sorry, but somebody has got to tell it....)

  • That was awesome...I found myself head rocking to the beat!

  • Queen, The Who, Pink Floyd, Led Zep, The Stones, The Sex Pistols... The seventies were the golden age of British Rock/

  • Don`t forget The Beatles, without them, there would`n have been Pink Floyd, Led Zep, Sex Pistols (Think of I`m down or Helter Skelter). The Beatles are the most famous band in the world for all times!

  • Who could forget The Beatles. What a beautiful song 'Here Comes The Sun'.

  • Oh yes, and of course Let IT Be, Across The Universe, Hey Jude and many many more. But Queen with Paul Rogers are great performing band too. I love it and had see them live.

  • The Beatles, like Elvis, are attended by an awful lot of ephemera - the controversy, the cultural phemomenon, the anecdotes, the movies... But when you put all that aside and get back into the music itself I for one appreciate them more.

  • All the beatles did was rip off blues artists, if it weren't the beatles it wouldve just been someone else.

  • everybody did back then but they evolved quickly

  • Great version - but then again with Paul Rodgers singing, what else was it going to be??

    Excellent, and it looks like everyone enjoyed it!

  • @eggymoo

    true.

  • Wow. Queen sounds not like Queen, but this was excellent. Great Performance

  • The free ticket winners and the "unknowing"

    say "Wow I didn't know Queen did this! Awesome"

  • la meilleure version était et restera celle avec Paul Kossoff

  • Noone will ever match Free playing this song, just as noone will ever match the original Queen playing their songs. Listen to Paul Kossof play the solo for this song, not even someone with the talent of Brian May can touch him for tone or feeling. That said, Queen are legendary, and Paul Rodgers power and soul as a vocalist is still 100%, he is without peer. He is my hero and inspiration, although I am not worthy to sing his songs.

  • I look at this and ponder,,,, what happens to the spirit behind the original song. Simple story, music captures emotion, solid..... and then this???? The song and and the singer can't stand the onslaught of of the market... a song played in a thousand inapproprate contexts including this one. Even superb musician ship... talent and more talent between them cannot call back the spirits who brought this song its truth and greatness. They are gone til more grounded musicians bring them back.

  • I believe this version rocks. I saw them a few months after in Atlanta and this song was just as good then. I'm first a PR fan and I have to say the Q&PR versions of Feel Like Making Love, Can't Get Enough and All Right Now were superior to any live versions I've heard from Bad Co/Free& Paul Rodger's solo bands. I think the best Bad Company song live version was the Merchants of Cool tour in 2002. QPR wasn't able to match that version mainly because the ending arrangement was different.

  • Everyone is entitled to their opnion.

    The fact that yours is wrong is nothing more than a minor irritation in the whole scheme of things!

  • Queen + PR is the best bad. isnt it ??

  • so funny when englishmen sound SO american...ehehehe. do they practice in front of the mirror or something, cuz theyre so good at it.

  • Surely ......Brian May must be one of the BEST guitar players of ALL time?

  • Easily.

  • brian, angus young kossof (wrote this song) or toni iommi surely?

  • Andy Fraser and Paul Rodgers take the credit for this song.

  • daaah obvious

  • @Nostradamis Actually I wouldn't even put him in the top ten. Maybe top 50...

  • @Nostradamis you think?

  • i agree best version of all right now. Queen surley rocked it out with paul

  • WOW! Paul Rogers is still FAB!!!!

  • @YamersLexx still FAB, he's better than ever!!!!!!!!

  • @YamersLexx Paul rogers is the 'effin' man. Such stage presence.

  • best version ever,

    the original one is very good as well, moreover that one which (i think) live and recorded at Woodstock,

    BUT THIS IS THE BEST EVER :)

  • Do you mean the band Free ? Didn't play Woodstock. Can't disagree with your taste. Great Fukin' work.

  • They played the isle of wight festival in the 70's I think...was that the live version you're thinking of? I've seen that footage too...I've never heard Rodgers perform badly...always briliant :)

  • oops....brilliant with 2 "L's" haha

  • one big long guitargasm!

  • "All right now!!"

  • FsEtNrDaEtR92

    Yeah i suppose he caught the mic stand, too bad the ending was cut off lol

  • Gees people! We ALL miss Freddie very very much,but this ain`t Queen`s song and Freddie never sang it! so,no need to write that comments on this video!

    ps-I like this version better than original that Paul did!

  • RIP freddy

  • Unfortenatly for you, Freddie didn't ever sing it

  • Where did he say that he did?

  • this is the only song I like by paul rodgers+queen
