Queen - It's a hard Life (lipsynch)

[elauzierek]

Freddie's the best, its done to protect His voice mainly remember Queens on tour many more shows to do but a true pro He let the audience know it was bull shit to funny still the GREATEST Band today

[brunobliss]

this. was. awkward. why did this happen?

[michaelgadsby]

This is hilarious! :D A great pissed off performance without a sound moving past his moustache. Freddie Mercury having to lipsynch? Heresy!

[betichi]

"this is a tricky situation".. (having to lipsync against your will)..

how true, poor freddie

[betichi]

just cant stop laughing looking at this lol lol

who ever made him lipsync should be ashamed of himself, hence freddie's message through his performance ; "eat a dick and blow me!"

[MooseyFate100]

Hahahaha, he doesn't even bother with the microphone most of the time. I love Freddie.

[Lawen78]

He's not even trying lol,

[CleanNJerk101]

why did this happen? anyone mind messaging me? quite a surprise and its sad, Love Freddie

[mafs13]

It surprises me Freddie actually agreed to do this show..

[rhinotinto]

i remember this was the first time i saw this song performed, awesome! thanks for posting this!

[beans909]

yeah he's upset. there's no point in having to lipsynch with such a beautiful voice to show off.

[dagsi1000]

we miss you Freddie but you will be in our Hearts

[4rd4life]

why in the world would they make him fake it... yea, its painfully obvious that he's upset

[joinevvel]

why would he lip synch

[DisturbedManson4life]

You can easily tell that Freddie was NOT happy having to lip sync here,and I don't blame him at all. If I had a voice like his I'd hate having to lip sync too.

[markzinger1]

exelente musico,exelenet showman!!! freddie es el mejor rockero de todos los tiempos!!!!

[vampireofages]

it dont matter. pimp shit right there!!

[Go1For1Gold]

I love how Freddie makes it so obvious he's lip syncing because he hates having to do it.

[Etadmins]

I love it too! He makes it so obvious, it funny. :)

[Crisstti]

LOL... I love how he doesn't try to make it seem like the sound is live :).

[MARkzinger]

se notaba q freddie no estaba acostumbrado a usar playback jajaja, grande master freddie mercury!!!!

[ilgiarno]

it's all playback and freddie, he and the band are just acting :)

they "played" all the songs in playback (they just played the record actually) it was a sort of appearance, not a real gig

[TheEmoEmoEmo]

really?

[ilgiarno]

maybe... :-)

[Radchw]

ahh, me acuerdo que se debio a que no les permitieron tocar en vivo, de hecho fijense bien y freedie se burla de esta medida al casi hacer como si el microfono fuera solo un palo nomas xD

[kaorwada]

por ke no?? =(...

[Narashava]

[XOPAUXO]

Boy, Freddie is the Queen!

[Butifarra]

[queen08150]

[litavolta]

[jackmay93]

Hes Lipsying. The Microphone is miles away from his mouth>

[freddiemercury4evr]

He hated playback (lipsynching)...so he makes it obvious in the performance that it's not live...: )

[victipicti]

Yes, you are absolutely right

[leomans2]

My god, Freddie's voice sounds perfect at this gig. Where was it? it sounds just like the record.

[ferris66]

[insaneirrianne]

Queen - Freddie Mercury = Legend!!!

[tuttvearmare]

[queen08150]

playback -______________________-

[nissanskyline16]

oh my god freddie must of hated not actualy singing

[MB703]

Yes Queen for ever

[kingapocalips2008]

i agree..i'm also a QUEEN fan and i love this song..it's just disappointing to watch this video because freddie did not sing it live..

[Inigobalboa]

They were using this concert as promotion and this show was destined for TV. It was a Festival, something Queen had never done before. It was right after recording The Works and where starting to rehearse.. Taken from Peter Freestone's "Freddie Mercury", page 65.

[skw4712]

I'm Queen fan for life..and that's not live.

When Freddie sings live, he kind of tweaks the song little bit and sings the way he likes. He never sings exactly like the recording. See when Freddie sang It's a Hard Life in Japan concert.

[SpikeTV88]

Maybe they had serious reasons to play on playback.. Don't be so rude right now..

[romancutzagiugiuc]

maybe he wanted the people to know that he is doing payblack.. hmm :-?

[eibil999]

[alexkaster420]

[romancutzagiugiuc]

ok.. :) thx

[motalato]

very bad playback! :(

[NightShadow54]

I hate playbacks just like Freddie. He was made to perform LIVE.

[Sampa94]

he doesn't even USE the mike! WTF?!

[mafioso1930]

This is not live. It's playback ...

[H4X0r94]

In Remake -.-'' Comunque Freddie ti adoro!!!

[kjacdc]

lip sync lol

[memole82d]

sei troppo bello

[jersy2007]

ah bakan clarito el video

[ECWNET]

lol, funny how half the time, he dosent even bother to put the mic near his mouth

[Urbanus1337]

Haha I love 0:13, tearing the sweat off his forehead like "pfff performing live is so hard"

[Constantijn09]

Freddie Mercury is the best artist, beside that he mean's playbacking is hard

[heno8888]

Everyone had to mime at this festival ,Freddie hated it,thats why hes not even trying.

[videosdigitales]

I love QUEEN !

[magicsuicidevision39]

It's so sad that people didn't notice he wasn't actually singing. Freddie once said "If you sing a song the same way on stage as you do in the studio you might as well be sitting at home listening to the record."

[nissanskyline16]

i bet freddie hated doin this he once sed he hates miming

[nissanskyline16]

no hes not really singing its the recorded version ne Queen fan should no that

[bigben055]

why is he lip singing??

[cmdeane]

i hate it when they do that

[cucurbetopepo]

en verdad es playback ,porque los productores de este programa no los dejaron tocar en vivo y freddie lo dejo muy en claro, no se dan cuenta que en momentos freddie simplemente no mueve ni los labios a proposito

[cmdeane]

is he really singing?

[cmdeane]

great fuckin song

[TruGruWooweFighter]

YOU ARE idiots he make funny from this its playback

[fernandoc666]

Freddie Live!

[charredfire]

look at the beginning...they play the song before he is even ready...

[elcaspi]

VIVA FREDDIE

[wraylen]

ES verdad aunque no es tan popular es muy buena Queen Forever...

[andreeadaisy]

so what it is a playback, he proved us so many times he could sing live as well, and so beautiful...

[kaslermagdi]

one of my favourite songs. it's not very popular, maybe that's why it's so special. great lyrics (as usual)

[tato78]

q lata están con playback... me parece q esta canción nunca se tocó realmente en vivo, además q en el tributo a freddie es una de las pocas q no fueron interpretadas por nadie.

[Suco06]

si la tocaron en la gira de The Works...está en el DVD de Rock en Rio

[adriduran81]

playback what a pity

[Michimoni]

Haha. Freddie really doesn't like lipsynching. :X He's not even trying to pretend. XD
