"I get a bit cross", learn to be tolerant of other people's opinions and ideas. Not everyone likes the same things as you do. And when you say that he played a song in "his original way", that just means he made a cover. Which many, many musicians have already done. Simply because he plays it in his own way doesn't make him better, just makes him unique.
And in my opinion, Queen sung it better. But hey, listen to what you want.
I get a bit cross when I see negative comments about very talented musicians.
Newton Faulkner is a pretty special musician, he plays a style of music that is almost his own, there are few individual musicians that you can compare him to because he is brilliant at what he does, check out "to the light" how would x factor deal with that. Newton thought of a song the people would like, and gave it to them in his original way, he managed to play a Queen song by himself, get real the negative few.
@conalm51 you don't have to be so defensive over Faulkner. Personally, I think he's great. But that doesn't mean to say everyone has to. People are entitled to their own opinion and people like yourself who get shitty when others don't have the same opinion as your own. It's not look you actually know Newton. He's not your bro. I'm sure that he doesn't particularly give a shit what people write him on Youtube.
i dont like this dude..... hes messed up the the original song. Atleast he tried! im okay if you people put a thumbs down. Freddie Mercury is way better for me .... his voice aswell as talent.
and when you think of the shit the x factor go through to produce a pop star and this guy rocks it with a bit of wood and strings with a great voice. got the whole crowd pumping.
pop is killing the real talent.
sort it out and give people like this the respect and exposure we deserve
THAT IS ABSOLUTELY THE MOST FANTASTIC THING IVE SEEN IN A LONG TIME. MADE ME WONDER WHAT IS FEELS LIKE TO GET THAT REACTION AND BE HIM. SO INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I never thought anyone could ever perform Bohemian Rhapsody well enough to make it worth listening to and took a huge risk of ruining my point of view on NF to hear this... I'm *SO* glad I did. His take on it is so original and individual, but Freddie and co. should be proud. <3
i used to say that only Freddie Mercury can sing this song. I was wrong. Faulkner's not just as good as Freddie, he's the whole Queen band ... and with an acoustic guitar to boot. Far out!
@MsSniffer2 Please, don't insult Freddie memory. Nothing was near to him and his band. They're unique. The only person that got near cover perfectly their music was Pink. This piece of crap that you are hearing it's just horrible and make me sick for me and for Freddie. And yes, you were wrong by saying what you said.
@ruip29 now that's sad... Newton might not be Freddie, and you might not want people to insult him (which in my opinion they're not?), but you can't deny that Newton is a fabulous guitarist, musician and all round performer. i mean look at the freaking crowd! all those people can't be wrong. to get a crowd going like that with just an acoustic guitar takes talent which Newton has by the truckload.
@phillip19951234 I want to see a duet between Newton, and his good friend God. I just think God wants a chance to be in the spotlight though, he's always coming second to Newton :/
why people wants to put millions of dancers, fireworks and fucking big lights in their shows... if a guitar, a voice and some talent is everything you need to make everybody happy?
That really is impressive holding a crowd like that and making such a big and full and fired sound from one acoustic guitar for that length of time. Not a big Faulkner fan but very impressed with this performance. Worthy of a big round of applause. :)
Lol, Brian has a few other people playing instruments to help him me thinks, Newtons all on his own - think even Brian would have to think a bit about that lol - Newton and Brian are both awesome and yep a collaboration would be ....... Mmmmmmmmmm
is it me or does the fact that Newton is really having to concentrate on his guitaring at some points show the absolute skill of Brian May....No wait I mean do a collaboration Newton and Brian!
@AndyMcDowell1 This is the last thing from terrible, this is just one man and his guitar, queen was a whole band. Do you know how much talent is needed to pull that off let alone work it all out perfectly on guitar. I think your just a bit of a Queen Fanboy.
what makes it more special is his set was running late and the majority of the crowd were stereophonics fans who were on next,he managed to get everyone singing this song,in the lashing rain aswell.the moment was certainly the crowds moment.
Says so much about Newton Faulkner as a performer and a musician that he can have this entire massive crowd, in the rain, eating out of the palm of his hand.
Better than freddie.
