[AndrewMelodeath]

[MESLY01]

[XCejovaX]

[squeeky95]

@XCejovaX Well you have to die in order to reincarnate.. but I see where you're getting at. lol

[XCejovaX]

@squeeky95 Shhh they dont know that. lmao

[squeeky95]

@XCejovaX HAHA! Okay :D

[ThinMint2009]

@XCejovaX no. just. NO. stop it. go listen to marc martel. this guy sucks. adam lambert does a better job even

[tehpappa]

WOW!

Great Voice and very sympathetic!

GREAT!!!

[ColaPac]

Holy shit he's totally AWESOME!!!

[CSavageSr]

Just tour with Queen already.

[QueenSmileMusik]

@CSavageSr thats right

his voice is like freddies

[cicconefortin]

OMG!!! 1:55

[BALGABDZEU6]

just look at the face of the blond young guy when Thomas get in the stage for the first time, and then look at his face once again when he ends to sing, he just can't believe it.

[trapper32]

Better than most I've seen.



[upfrontbear74]

I know Danni and Brian but who is the cute bear the right.

[magyarplush]

impresionante es igual

[rickismgwp]

PRETENDING THAT YOUR STILL AROUND!!!!

NICE WORDS

[skipstalforce]

oh so very very close

[papincampos]

CLOSE YOUR EYES AND LISTEN TO THIS!!!! THEN TELL ME WHAT YOU SAW....

[clairenunavut]

@papincampos i saw Freddie Mercury!

[MarceloBlackval]

@cruzado14 toda la razon...

[cruzado14]

este es un excelente imitador de gran Freddie, no como los que hay en chile. Esos son una verguenza

[Akintudne]

Thumbs up if you got here through a Marc Martel video, and think Thomas Crane does it better.

[DILLONSONG]

@Akintudne

I dont want an IMPERSONATOR OF FREDDIE I WANT A NEW FREDDIE

Maybe now you all see the difference, if you have been following queen extrvaganza final audition videos, you will know by now the power of RAPHAEL DONADIEU'S vocal and the intensity of his performance presence, and how it is far more apt to LIVE PERFORMANCE than Marc MARTEL or Adam LAMBERT or this GUY or GARY MULLEN

I WANT A NEW FREDDIE I WANT RAPHAEL DONADIEU

watch?v=Wc7fWMIIzhw

[icyrazor]

@Akintudne Marc does it well but, Thomas is much more closer to Freddie.

[lape88]

jajajajajaa great pottato jajaja



[MabMare]

se premia a la gente por imitar, que raro, sin desmerecerlo, pero me parece que el mero hecho de que cante igual, no le da mérito

[calcetosocko]

@MabMare fuck off...

[MESLY01]

@MabMare Tienes razón, debería ir a un concurso de imitadores o algo así, porque en este mundo globalizado todo es competencia, de todos modos es muy buen imitador.

[fabelamenace]

very very good

[bardek1]

Tomas Crane-you are horrible!!! nasty clumsy imitation of gestures of Freddy!!!! So what if you sing that well but you will never be such as Freddy!!!You are mere and shoddy imitation excellent musical talent,acting and great charisma that had Freddy Mercury.You are pathetic because you have talent and you want someone to live life.In artistic terms are zero. That's why it will never achieve what Freddy has reached.You do not have their own personality.Already I have no words for this stupidity.

[tarikay93]

@bardek1 Shut up, you nasty troll.

[calcetosocko]

@bardek1 you are extremedly stupid asshole XD

[Concreto1984]

@bardek1

1/10 cause you made me respond

otherwise, GTFO

[Bartchek]

Woooow To jest świetne!!!!

[suelen700]

he is amazing,and the voice remember Freddie,but he doesn´t need to copy Freddie,he is really good

[Sariferxs]

My fucking gooood, its the return of freddie GOOOD i wanna cry!

[boster18]

excelenteeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

[maciejr71]

Woooowwww  Pięknie ;}

[seffe28]

[tukyrock1]

fuck you potato

!!!!!!!

[Lexingtonprepdude]

Not bad but nothin to the real man...mercury had true caucasion soul

[tauempirekid]

is it wrong i prefer this version over freddies original?

[Godus2008]

@tauempirekid you shouldn't be alive, lol just kedding bud

[capitalsexy2000]

Looooooooolllll Fantastik!

[nuno1f]

4:08 antenna maaaaaan :)

[sheik2008]

is this the guy from bohemian rhapsody???

[adyboy76]

isnt he a part of a band called Bohemian Rhapsody? why state job as antenna installer?

[adyboy76]

i would gladly pay quarter of a million dollars to hear freddie sing again

[dschonsie]

@adyboy76 not enough. god is greedy.

[adyboy76]

@dschonsie i ws refering the prize money to this guy :-)

[adyboy76]

the greatest 'great pretender'

[OgZikkyC1]

this guy is incredible, only one thing is off, the accent, but other than that, amazing

[ArkothPwns]

Marc Martel, look him up...he's kinda of a big deal?

[CLOSETROCKGUITARIST]

Thomas Crane's audition was absolutely brilliant. As far as I am concerned, this was the best performance of the entire competition. The fact that Thomas didn't make the final 18, let alone the Grand Final was a farce. This guy could easily fill in for the real Freddie if Queen wanted to tour again. As you can tell by my code name, I play guitar and know talent when I see it. PS: unfortunately for Thomas, most of the viewers of AGT are <16 y.o. females who have never heard of Freddie Mercury.

[georjec]

I have looked at many of the other Freddie enthusiasts on you Tube including Gary Mullen and Killer Queen and this guy is by far the best. A lot of the others are very very good but this guy is the best.

[goblinQueen12]

vvvv the song is another one bites the dust vvvvvv

[MrArif1971]

What is the name of the song playing background at 0:38 to 0:44

[mapeku81]

wow wäre ich blind würde ich ihm mit Freddy verwechseln

[CewHit76]

He did a decent job, but in my opinion, Marc Martel is far better.  His covers of Queen are simply amazing.

[n00bje11]

r.i.p. freddie '' life is life ,its just what it is,, ;')

[Kris3Gs]

Freddie's popping up everywhere!

[IstaylPinoy]

0:52 - 0:56

I thought he said that the title of the song is "The Great Potato" LOL

[tarikay93]

He is such an honest man.

[TVisionario]

woah! amazing!!!!

[mikizampe]

Really beautiful voice

[AreYouGood07]

LOL i thought the name of this song was GREAT POTATO

[mikizampe]

@AreYouGood07 ahahhahaa me too lol

[Concreto1984]

@AreYouGood07

LOL, yeah it sounded like that

[Mcdovin1]

@AreYouGood07 SO DID I!! xD

[elviraluu]

@AreYouGood07

ME TOO!!! D:

[andysmith84]

sick

[barnysan]

oh my god........

[Battle4MiddleEarth]

o man! are you kidding? I would see this guy, Freddie is not here but his guy makes me kind feel like he is, very stange but like it!!!

[ulisesgdlmex]

i fuck love this perform ... love it 

[mercury8360]

hey anyone trying to keep the memory of freddie alive is a legend.

[BALGABDZEU6]

I can't believe it, I think I'm going to cry, his voice is similar to Freddie Mercury, he's very lucky, he rocks

[eneyn7]

una interesante voz saludos desde mexico bien

[SHSATNewYork]

Freddy Mercury reborn.

[TahneeArlt]

I saw Thomas tonight outside my local pizza shop. I told him how great he is in continuing the legacy of Freddie Mercury.... and he told me he's going ahead with doing shows at the Regal Theatre in Perth, WA. Expect more from him!!! YES :D

[sandrativadar]

very talented - but..... he is NOT Freddie and Not he's voice either

[Arpayaband]

the voice is the same

[dario105]

nice try man

[Baygonkey]

Congratulations friend, very beautiful voice, much like Freddie Mercury, I buy music CD recorded by you. Congratulations on the effort, very good, congratulations Freddie Mercury. Super this time.

[Baygonkey]

THE RETURN OF FREDDIE MERCURY, SUPER

[Baygonkey]

HEY, SUPER FREDDIE, SUPER BAND QUEEN, FOREVER FRIENDS...SUPER SUPER SUPER, GOTCHA.

[Sataree1]

Reply to @a1Tristan........ not sure how old you are, but i can guarantee you Queen did search for a replacement not so much as a replacement for Freddie because that was not possible but for a singer that could help carry queen on, it was rumored at one point that George Michae. would do it, but that did not eventuate ..... for various reasons

[Sataree1]

He was definately ment for more than installing intenas although a worthy profession he has a great talent, voices like freddies come along very rarely if ever twice in the same millenia, Thomas could lose a bit of the theatrics as body is a different shape than freddie, and looks strange when you copy some of his moves, be a bit more of your natural self, its realy the voice that counts and youve got the gift Go, i really hope this takes you somewhere best of wishes and luck for your future

[thevideosofpeonyyip]

in the ? of Freddie Mercury? I cannot hear that word at 0:53 ... Can anyone help? THANKS!

[djpatton8]

@thevideosofpeonyyip style

[thevideosofpeonyyip]

@djpatton8

THX!



[sodeepablue]

Of course he can't be as talented as Freddie.

But he is a cool fan for sure.

[mankindwar]

roger taylor brian may go and get john deacon and bring this guy to the band not that bastard of paul rodgers

[worstenbreaud]

This definately sent shivers down my spine.

[Xitement]

Gangster :]

Dude will make fortune in Vegas

[funatall20s]

i like the fact that both top comments are for one person

[seabird2010sp]

very cool

[cata9546]

HERMOSA LA INTERPRETACION!!

[78MrMikes]

true gud efort tho  rocks! ;P

[2035Fish]

Of course nobody will ever replace Freddie but that was as close to the mark as I have heard and I love Queen. An outstanding performance!

[oliviaj1974]

i'm sorry but no one can replace freddie! i love him and i don't think anyone should ever try and take his place. ever.

[marvciputra]

it's a shame he lost the public's vote.. i mean he's unique & talented..

[Razamanta]

Why He making copy from Freddie ? He have good voice! He can JUST sing !

[smylie787]

im a huge freddy fan and that was really good i enjoyed it!

[mosu12sik]

Amazing

[vandijkav]

What a great performer hope he wins

[RedLobsterFtw]

REAPET PRESSING 4 lol

[arpadul]

tom is goooooooood.all the respect for him.

[20031200]

Just a super singer and personality

[Syphixxx]

lol 02:19 xD

[caleownz]

my dads the bassist in his band, toms a very talented singer

[shkiddles]

Hes my favourite. Love him .What a great rendition. I think ,if he shows more of that Freddie showmanship, he'll be the greatest freddie in the world..

[springvondoom]

This guy came and sang at the Cherry Festival (WA), had a lot of people on their feet!! Really awesome to see him on here. Good luck!!!

[eviedrums]

You have to see this guy live to realise how good he is the video does not do him justice he is brilliant- good luck in the show Thomas

[mattrayy]

Ohhhh, Grant with the antenna jokes.

[CookieJoke]

Sorry Thomas there is only one god.

[a1tristan]

Nice one! Queen searched for 20 years trying to find a replacement for Freddie Mercury and they couldn't. This guy is great and with a voice similar to the great Freddie Mercury.

[TheJumpyPopcorn]

@a1tristan what are you talking about?? Queen never searched for a Freddie's replacement. That is a lie.

[MermaidSteve]

@a1tristan I heard John Farhnam was asked.

[ncniga]

Not even close , no real power in his voie

[guild93]

@ncniga Search on "guild93 amazing" and the first video that comes up will show you how Tom can sing this song without the pressure of a 2 million people audience .... he doesn't hold back at all!

[CircunferenciaPunga]

@ncniga watch him sing "nevermore" or "don't stop me now" and shut up.

[philphy101]

I got the song because of this guy.

[luisarancibiab]

I'm in love with your voice. I love when you sing "Guide me Home". I hope you win. sincerely thank you very much for all and I hope see you soon in Chile.

[ThePK1960]

Saturday night, beer and a BBQ at this guys house must be brilliant

[mikklo121212]

He is amazing! Amazing voice, entertaining and I love hid accent :)

[wolfxinstein]

He has personality.

[dilligaf93]

I've come to clean ze pool.

[Octavice]

@dilligaf93 HAHA :D

[JustinsVideoCorner]

He can sing the top notes very well... on another note - thats what what's-his-name from Westlife's doing now! ;)

[iiLOVEyouFOREVERxo]

WOW. I'm a big Freddie Mercury fan and this man is AMAZING. I switched windows for a second and just listened to his face and actually forgot it was not Freddie. This guy also does a good job with the movements. AMAZING voice!

[HarkeProductions]

I know this guy he's my mum's bosses friend

[britsluver]

i love me some hot antenna man. nom

[silentfades]

brought me to tears thinking of Freddie and the love this man put into his passion

[damnstraight333]

This guy seriously amazes me.

[TheJaanek]

In Australia have so many talented people. amazing.. This guy should win this contest.

[TheAtheistAussie]

He performs for his wife on a stage? Should be the other way around lol.

[Smoofee]

I'd like to see him 'Break Free' !!

[DasKarla]

Woooow wooow woooow, great, well done

[jonty811]

Loved it

[JohnFasce]

I am in my 70s and the song was GREAT and performed well. Thanks for the memories.

[TheAleksMichel]

doesnt sound at all like freddie...is voice isnt broke enough and not strong enough...but hes a good singer he should sing his own stuff butt not impersonate...my opinion.

[cooltom04]

very good

[20031200]

Very Well Done !

[castles91101]

its good to see that freddie stills makes a impact on people after all these years mate you are one in a million carry on what you are doing,i know its puts a smile on my face each time i watch it.

[dazzadidja]

he's a good act.. entertaining

[ThisIsAtomic]

He sounds like Freddie, but he isn't Freddie Mercury if you know what I mean.

[flyboy172r]

Missing ya, Freddie.

[thekomrade]

holy shit... its not freddie... but it is... but not really... but it's him.

[KaptKan1]

He's good at what he does, but he's no Chooka Parker. Besides, imitating others is not exactly original. He seems a great chap but I am hoping that Chooka wins AusGT.

[Thystonius]

@KaptKan1 I agree, it was really good, but I'd love to see an original song :-)

[KaptKan1]

@Thystonius And he certainly is talented enough to do an original song, too, so it would be a shame if he felt he had to limit himself to imitation. Take an old song and make it new and be yourself; that is the key to developing a singing career in my opinion.

Look at how little Robbie Firmin did a Sinatra tune and OWNED it, for example!

[macjaykiwi]

Awesome stuff Thomas! Looking forward to the Vat show

[cotoiful]

coool

[13thfloor13throom]

I prefer Stan frebergs version myself :P
