Queen + Paul Rodgers - 'Bohemian Rhapsody' (Live)

[Matty19941904]

I LOVE how Brian always changes his shirt during the break in this song! :D Long live Queen!

[GeetarAdam]

One of the most honest and moving songs ever written!

[ashkez14]

crying...:'-(

[Zebonka]

You lost me at 3:30

[caiooo01]

chuck norris and freddie mercury, excellent duet!!!!

[MrAVME]

@caiooo01 and then chuck starts to cry and realise he isn't a legend and can't sing and Freddie is a Legend and can Sing.

[TheFochetta]

BEAUTIFUL SING!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU <3 <3 <3 <3

[Obelisk2290]

this is beautiful tribute

[josetorres8888]

La cancion es buena, menos cuando canta Paul Rodgers

[xRemRooodx]

Both Freddie and John is missed <3 (John is not dead but not in the band anymore)

[yanmu10]

this just makes me cry

[MrSWEETFEET7]

I love Paul rodgers He is One of the best rock voices of all time

and Freddie he is pretty much on his own level

I wish we had this kind of voices right now

[statman99]

Love how they incorporated Freddie and Paul into the song....GREAT JOB!!!

[AliceInWonderland85]

Really wish they'd just leave Freddie to sing the whole song. Have Paul Rogers sit that one out.

[onetime410]

@AliceInWonderland85 I totally agree with you.

[kristophize]

I bet a thousand people have beat me to writing this but: Paul Rogers really looks a lot like Chuck Norris.

[speakwordsfoo]

just let him go already

[Tubalious14]

Can anybody tell me at 3:16 what song/video that he is dressed for? It would help me alot, thank you!

[killieguyno1]

@Tubalious14 im goimg slightly mad video

[Tubalious14]

@killieguyno1 Thank you love! :)

[F1KillerQueen]

I have been a Queen for YYEEAARSS. No one will ever replace Freddie. Paul knows and always admitted he is not Freddie nor replacing Freddie and he has always said no one can replace Freddie.

It is always the way when someone take lead vocal of a well known song. People will always say "He/She is not as good as 'X' singing this song...."

[ThePieroky]

Still salute them to make it + Paul Rodgers tho.

[ThePieroky]

I don't know if I'm going to like or dislike this. I mean like they're singing a very great song and he was NOT Freddie.

[VincentP23]

paul rodgers has a hell of a voice!



[Tubalious14]

I like the parts with Dear Freddie, but as soon as Paul sings the magics lost...Wouldn't you say? :(

[LuvBugBlaqkHart]

@Tubalious14 holy shit that really does kill the magic! :'( it kind of made my heart sink.

[KICKOFFRECORDS]

Same boring discussions as with the Guns N' Roses without Slash thing going on here. Like Brian May once said in an interview: If you think you're not gonna like it, just don't come.

[nando12020]

GRACIAS A BRIAN MAY Y ROGER TAYLOR POR MANTENER VIVA LA ESENCIA DE QUEEN Y DE EL BUEN ROCK CLASICO EN ESTOS DIAS , NADIE PUEDE REMPLAZAR A FREDDIE NI A SU INIGUALABLE ESTILO, PERO PAUL CUANDO ESTUVO CON QUEEN EXPLORARON NUEVOS AIRES DE ROCK QUE LES SALIO MUY BIEN .Y LO DIGO PORQUE GRANDES AGRUPACIONES DE LA EPOCA DE LOS 80 DESAPARECIERON Y NINGUNO DE SUS INTEGRANTES HIZO NADA POR MANTENERLAS VIVAS, PAUL RODGERS ES UN GRAN CANTANTE Y LA COLABORACION QUE LE PRESTO A QUEEN FUE MUY VALIOSA .

[martzhxc]

Paul look likes Chuck Norris

[calland2007]

I love this version of Bohemian Rhapsody, the video of Freddie is genius, in contrast to the other band members looking aged and Freddie is forever young.......

[Johnny5Guitar]

Like If you almost cried.

[Ulghart]

Farrokh Bulsara died 24 th november of 1991.

Freddie Mercury, however, will live forever.

[queenmercury86]

everything was just perfect until Chuck Norris showed up...

[helen1982ization]

Can I have a time machine as a present for christmas so i can go back in time in the 80s to experience those epic moments with the best band of ALL times???!!!!!

[natachag77]

WHEN I HEAR PEOPLE SINGING WITH FREDDIE IT'S LIKE TO BE PART OF THE BEST SPIRITUAL EVENT EVER... I REALLY CAN FEEL THAT GOD IS PRESENT!

[queenmercury86]

@natachag77 damn, your comment made me cry...

[antonio88sk]

What a respect for their friend , deep respect and they are still playing drums and guitar while freddie is behind them on video wall...great friendship , until the end !!! That is a friendship forever !!

[Gioko100]

He is still alive!!!

[briantravelman]

Dude, they should take me! I sound more like Freddy Mercury then Paul Rodgers does. They could've at leats got the guy from Styx.

[TwistedMindCroatia]

Queen without somebody at least as great as Freddie is NO QUEEN AT ALL!!! This guy is just disgusting! No power in the voice, no soul, no nothing... There are at least 50 singers I can count at this very moment that I know would do a better job than Paul.

[FenderSunset]

Why did he have to chime in at the end? letting the crowd end the song would have been wonderful. him chiming in was a bit of overkill considering it was a tribute to freddie

[natachag77]

@FenderSunset

You're so right! Moreover, we're talking about BoRhap here, the mythical song... the best of all times. I wonder why Paul is singing at the end if that's the most intimate part of the song, the redemption of the soul. Rodgers should stay away from that!

[PeaceKose]

vse cto tebe nravitsa i mne nravitsa

[noiseonlyplease]

at 2:50 thats me when i find out the day that i recieve a Queen collection of cds and dvds on christmas.

[Kraveth]

56 people are completely deaf...

[letzerable]

They should do a tour like this. No singer, just Freddie on the screen

[Teresa791000]

What a beatiful tribute! Very emotinal. I love you Freddie with all my heart...

[KingNothing1984ger]

@Poodoochild He quit Queen and music itself in '97

[cortadew]

tears in my eyes

[Mervcarter1]

Why do so many of you have to use bad language, you really don't help your argument - you just make yourselves sound silly! everyone is entitled to their opinion and if you don't think Paul Rogers should sing with what is left of Queen then that is fine but there is absolutely no reason to be abusive about him! Maybe PR is a bad choice maybe he isn't just accept that Queen and Paul Rogers enjoy working together and you should respect the Queen boys for their choice - it is their band!

[Mushroom842]

I think that Freddie has the most beautiful voice and that no one can replace him ...:/

[FloProproductions]

I remember seeing this tour, it was just amazing! It was heart warming when everyone was sining and so was Freddie, and leave Paul Dodger alone! He done a very good job, saw him live Aswell. ;-)

[kiikeee1999]

marc matel tiene mucho mejor timbre de voz , es = al de freddie

[TheSummerwine20]

@kiikeee1999 nadie tiene el timbre de freddie!

[worldroma07]

I LOVE FREDDIE!!!!

[pepectm]

FUCK PAUL RODGERS, MARK MARTELL AS THE NEW FREDDY!

[EoMaoMao]

This is a great live show, but no one can bring Freddy back to life T.T...where are the fucking dragon spheres when you need them???

[jerhyn89]

I dont have anything against Paul Rodgers but Freddie Mercury is FREDDIE MERCURY.

[ANOTHERHOLEINYOHEAD]

I dont understand why Brian and Roger keep performing all these queen songs. I know Brian is still passionate about making music so why not start up a new band instead of living in the past.

[lucrativeelfmongrel]

How does Paul Rodger's suck?

[KingHenrikLundqvist]

Fuck Paul Rodgers, he fucking sucks.

[nousernameremain]

@KingHenrikLundqvist No, man, YOU suck. Do you know All Right Now, Fire and Water, Can't Get Enough, etc.? Fuck YOU. Freddie Mercury was really great, but Paul Rodgers too, everyone in his own way. Don't compare. Never.

[queenfreddie100]

happy birthday freddie

[ThePiticulbz]

The Queen wouldn't select Paul for this concert if he'd be bad.

[ThePiticulbz]

RIP FREDDIE!

[noiseonlyplease]

what Queen music video is that at time 3:02? Freddie with the pink hair. what song is that?

[Robean15]

@noiseonlyplease It isn´t video of Queen, but only of Freddie Mercury. It is song Great Pretender. Good video on youtube is "Freddie Mercury - The Great Pretender (extended Version)".

[noiseonlyplease]

@Robean15 thank you so much. I will watch the video.

[10000liverpool]

PAUL U SUCK SHUT UP

[IceaSmith]

That song is freddies

[marica9888]

@IceaSmith Whaaaat?? :O I can't believe it!!

[Mervcarter1]

I think most of you are missing the point - NO ONE is trying to REPLACE FM, Queen and Paul are just putting on a damn good rock gig with some very good music! I think you are being very unfair to PR he is an excellent blues rock singer! No one can replace Paul Kossoff on guitar when doing Free songs - but they are good songs and you should appreciate the new take on the music!

[hdl3278]

@Mervcarter1 ...SORRY...but you must put the right voice with the right band.If you love Queen , see the performance of Paul Martel....I hope the next lead singer with

QUEEN

[Mervcarter1]

@hdl3278 Actually I don't like Queen and never have although I do respect the fact that they made some good music. I was a Free fan but pre All right now - They went too commercial with that song. Paul Rogers is an excellent blues singer and possibly not best suited to the 'pop/rock' of queen.

[SigandGibbs]

@Mervcarter1 Well that's the thing, they could have found Freddie soundalikes, but they didn't want to. They wanted someone to bring a new take on the songs, so they won't be stuck in Freddie's shadow.

[Mervcarter1]

@SigandGibbs A good reason to use Paul, I just wish that other people could appreciate that.

[SigandGibbs]

@Mervcarter1 Exactly. Imagine how weird Brian and Roger would have felt with some random soundalike on stage pretending to be their best friend?

[ruh1000]

@Mervcarter1 Paul Rogers is a rock singer ...listen to.Free ..Song .alright now

[Mervcarter1]

@ruh1000 Paul is much more a blues singer - you should go further back than All Right Now - that was I think a turning point for Free - they started producing commercial music after that was a hit. Listen to the albums titled 'Free' or 'Tons of Sobs' much more blues influenced. or listen to His tribute to Muddy Waters album - these are where his voice really comes into its own!

[Cer3Punk]

Chuck Norris?

[Cer3Punk]

Queen + Paul Rodgers is not queen... is queen + paul rodgers

[SecretYoungLink007]

why don't they just perform like this with freddie on background :D then its still pretty good.

[tdevil101]

these fuckin ads i swear to god

[nezthorpop]

never like freddy!

[MrJordanbailey95]

that last picture of freddie bowing gives me goosebumps and puts a tear in my eye...

[AAwesomePantss]

Freddies better. This song -3

[nerf43]

0:00 <--- free replay button

[Galin1993]

feel kinda sad when paul popped out and they didnt contine with the video of freddie

[Rockinrollinman625]

Paul absolutely fuckin nails this. Love Freddie of course, but this is a great version too.

[TheSummerwine20]

I PREFER FREDDIE ON A SCREEN ..THIS SONG WAS MADE FOR HIS VOICE..NO ONE'S CAN REPLACE FREDDIE

[ricardoleony]

Bruce Dickinson did a better tribute, sorry Rodgers.

[Raparanoiko]

fuck, he is the biggest

[TheRaiskin]

я не могу смотреть на это без слез(((((((((((((

[nezthorpop]

imma cry

[Retromantra]

Freddie was a gay icon, Paul is a rock god.

[siyuntz]

@Retromantra

you've got that backwards

[Carbon657]

@siyuntz lol very true

[jednightingale91]

no one can ever replace Freddie.

[mwrths]

Freddie = LEGEND ! R.I.P <3

[nicofeder]

@mwrths DONT SAY RIP LEGENGENDS NEVER DIE

[mwrths]

@nicofeder TRUE :P

[turtlliwdnifuoyehthr]

where the fuck is "is this the real life"????

[ashkez14]

@turtlliwdnifuoyehthr They played that piece never live, just as the opera part;-)

[1970rdl]

@turtlliwdnifuoyehthr Queen NEVER played the first verse of "Bohemian Rhapsody" live. EVER. It was one of those parts of the song that was entirely studio-created that couldn't be reproduced live on stage.

[angusyoung1996rocks]

3:40, roger taylor says what the fuck?!?!?!?!

[sezabass]

Mustache guy @ 3:38

[AllTimeAesthetic]

ahhhhhhhhhh...just WHY WHY WHY did Freddie have to die???? 

[ayalcohen]

Haha he got Nike shoe how cool is he !!

[erlendsmordal]

why not just kick Paul Rodgers out, and do shows with Freddie on big screen in the background? :) would have been much better! PS: sorry for bad english

[AllTimeAesthetic]

@erlendsmordal I love that idea... they can just have him on a screen and a recording of him singing. Paul Rogers can't even hit the notes that Freddie could, nor does he seem to have the ability to hold a note for more than 2 beats.

[nybakg]

@AllTimeAesthetic Not true at all. He sings pretty fuckin' good! Hate how people shit over talented musicians that sing Queen. Even though Freddie was one of our time's most fantastic artists, people can still fuckin sing Queen even though it may not be AS good! People enjoy his music, and Paul Rodgers went on this tour because he loves Queen and loves Freddie like us! He does a fantastic job!! If you want a shitty Queen cover, check out Katy Perry's version of "Don't stop me now" ;)

[BrokeHeartedGirl]

OMG, I've cried during watching it...

[BoomerProduction96]

OMG !! i wish i was there!!! <3

[glenclosed]

To Brian May and Rodger Taylor.

You have ruined one of the best bands ever. Queen's reputation is muck.

From now on if someone asks me if I like Queen, I'll say, *No I don't like Queen I fucking hate them*

Paul Rogers is a great singer, Lady Gaga does her thing but Queen are fucking shite.

[rubendlove]

YOU SUCKKKKK Paul Rodgers!!!!.. you suckkk very bad... you dont have a piece of Freddie's voice..... oh man... suckiest man on the planet... i dont know why Queen choose you!... maybe because your're famous... but fame it;s not the only thing in the world....... for my last words.... You Suck

[MrJordanbailey95]

@rubendlove he's a good singer, obviously he can't touch freddie, nobody can.... but i think everbody should just lay off paul rodgers

[rubendlove]

YOU SUCKKKKK Paul Rodgers!!!!.. you suckkk very bad... you dont have a piece of Freddie's voice..... oh man... suckiest man on the planet... i dont know why Queen choose you!... maybe because your're famous... but fame it;s not the only thing in the world....... for my last words.... You Suck

[Riddler95]

It's not Queen without Freddie Mercury. During the Queen + Paul Rodgers tour, I think this was very respectful for what they did with Bohemian Rhapsody. Have Freddie sing most of the song.

In my opinion I think Freddie Mercury had the best voice for Rock music...

[tdevil101]

@Riddler95 best voice period

[Alejandrocc1994]

Stop mentionating Justin Bieber in presence of GOD,Freddie Mercury,

[matiasmierez]

good what are they doing . . freddie is freddie nothing compares with this guy !!!! one of the song by freddie " look into my eyes and you ll see im the only one " . . . . . . paul rodgers . . . . . . . you suckkkkkkkkkk !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Deathwalker211]

54 bieber bots

[denniscambronero]

Marc Martel SHOULD be that voice... not Paul!... He is really bad!

[littleJon92]

@denniscambronero WTF are you saying? Paul is an incredible singer and frontman!

[joeleffler]

Today...on the way to the store the 1975 version of Bohemian Rhapsody was playing on the Radio...should have been Radio Gaga

[henriquesouza8500]

Em respeito ao FREDDIE , que é uma lenda , Paul Rodgers até desceu do palco.

[scorpyaforever]

Who the f**k is Paul Rogers....i would prefer George Michael....Freddie Mercury will never can be replaced, but George has done amazing job with "Somebody to love" and "39"......but this Paul...it's a shame for the history of QUEEN and a big insult to the greatest artist from the entire history of music, Freddie Mercury!!!!

[briank383]

@scorpyaforever Yeah well he's not trying to sing or copy the style of Freddie, and if you think he sucks then blame Brian May and the rest of queen as they wanted him to front the band on tours......and if you have to ask who the f**k is Paul Rogers then you don't know much about the history of music, greatest artist or otherwise....

[scorpyaforever]

@briank383 men...i understand that he is not trying to copy Freddie Mercury, this is imposible....and i really said somewhere that i will never understand why the rest of the QUEEN choosed him. I know were Paul Rogers singed...but when i say "who the f**k" i meaned whay him to sing with them??? He really was doing some good things in other places...but here, no. I appreciad the version of "another one bites the dust", there he really made something good for me.

[ss4100forever]

George Michael would do a better job. Just look at him in Freddie's tribute singing "Somebody to love"

[empempire]

I appreciate Paul's talents, but no one will ever replace the greatest front man in the history of rock. You might as well try to replace the lead guitar in the Jimi Hendrix Experience.

[mknomad5]

In case you're on the fence: Paul Rodgers deserves MAD respect in anything he decides to put his name and voice to. Bad Company, anyone? And check out The Firm, with Jimmy Page on guitar. As was said already, the man delivers. A consummate professional.

[MatheusMaster1]

esse foi uns dos ultimos dele !!!

[thaer12345]

Why didn't they ever play the middle section live? They just played a recording of it..

[jerry4king]

@thaer12345 the notes were extremely hard to match and sing for freddie, its a mix of voice overs which gives it that raz and spaz cant do that part live.

[droid740]

This is awesome, having Freddie on video for this signature piece is classy. Love this.

[JManFilms]

It was really awesome, until 3:31. Then Paul Rodgers pulled his pants down, and shit all over it. Pull what ever argument you want, but that man is terrible. I don't mind them finding another singer after Freddie died, but they could have done a lot better then him.

[droid740]

@JManFilms respectfully, I'm not sure what you mean by better than him. A singer has to reproduce the same power and pitch night after night, not lose his voice, and be charismatic doing it. If you disagree, please go sing this song five nights in a row at your local karaoke bars, trying to hit every note and you you'll finally understand why Paul is considered the best "Rock Singer" of all time. He delivers, again and again. Your argument is about taste of sound, not professionalism. FACE.

[JManFilms]

@droid740 What I mean by better, is A DECENT SINGER. I don't care if he sounds exactly the same every night, that just means he sounds like shit every night. And as for "all time" HELL NO, If I asked 100,000 people who the best rock singer of all time is, maybe, just maybe, 2 might say Paul Rodgers. His voice sucks so much donkey ass, that it will take a vacuum 10 years to get all the shit out.

[MariaR2070]

@JManFilms OMG - you guys made me laugh. No one's can replace Freddie. NO ONE.

[ioannis21shum]

@MariaR2070 NO ONE

[19Snow88Patrol]

@MariaR2070 Nobody wants to replace Freddie :)

[droid740]

@JManFilms 0/10 troll. I thought you might have enough intelligence to talk about singing in singing terms. Good luck making your "films"

[angels2online]

Verb that could describe Brian and Rodger simply doesen't exist.

[ThisIsXTC]

3:31 there was a serious vocal downgrade

[ThisIsXTC]

WOW I'm shocked, i didn't even know they did this, it's almost as if he's there.

[Frapanapolis]

@mywotzone stfu, this is Queen + PAUL RODGERS not PAUL RODGERS' BAND + Freddie Mercury. Take your Paul Rodgers man crush somewhere else.

[scorpyaforever]

Love the clip, excepting the part with Paul Rodgers....what the f**k is looking there???? If Queen wanted a voice , they shoud take George Michael...he's the only one who is most closes of Queen music....not this one!!!!!

Love Freddie Mercury forever....no one in this fu***g world can be better then HIM!!!!! The music died with him :(

[SAMR33]

this vid made me wet my eyes, when seeing freddie on that screen~

[DavidSevero1995]

Dear Justin Bieber,learn with Freddie how to make a real song!!

PS:I miss freddie

[ConspiracyCult]

@DavidSevero1995 Stop mentioning that faggot on every video. It's never been funny.

[mywotzone]

Theres no way on gods green earth , would Freddie be better then Paul Rodgers ... Paul Rodgers is getting better with age , Freddie when he died was having problems with his voice , etc , let alone years & years later... Paul Rodgers is the music god as it stands as one of the only singers who get better as he ages by taking better care of himself....

[Dlano619]

@mywotzone Hmm, I wonder... might Freddie have been having voice problems because HE WAS FUCKING DYING?!?!

[mywotzone]

@Dlano619 Yeah your missing the point dipshit , people say "Oh freddie was so much better if he was still alive" , His voice was gone.... Paul Rodgers is a music god , can play in any band .... Freddie could only do Queen because the songs were wrote for his unique voice...

[Babooshka00]

@mywotzone You're talking from your ass, as Freddie would say. Freddie could sing anything, from rock to opera. Paul Rodgers attemps to sing Queen songs but it won't work. When he sings them the songs start to resemble Bad Company. Why would I want that? And Paul Rodgers should stick to bluesrock that's what he's very good in.

[mywotzone]

@Babooshka00 Freddie couldnt sing everything put him on a Bob Seger LP and see how he sings meanwhile Paul Rodgers sounds great on everything..

[mywotzone]

@Babooshka00 You don't know anything about Paul Rodgers , Free , Bad Company , was going to be the lead singer of the Doors.. All vocalists if you've heard them once they resemble the next they do... Its the music biz...

[marciafeverful]

Fred Mercury I love forever, forever

[TheSummerwine20]

FREDDIE FOR EVER!

[boogryman8589]

playing the live version of freddie rather than paul taking over = respect

[BoomerProduction96]

Deacy And Mercury For Ever !

[tdarnold]

Freddie Mercury could never be imitated nor does Paul Rodgers try. To compare the two is ridiculous.

[bestdamnalex]

all the stupid comments around here make me enjoy this a little less. sad.

[wdenegri]

Brian may... you are the man...

[NoJail4You]

Paul Rodgers does a good job on this song. Of course Freddie Mercury could never be imitated. Happy Birthday to Freddie Mercury. He would have been 65 today. R.I.P.

[gangstaleprecaun300]

@3737jak, all due respect @TheSummerwine20 meant no one likes Paul Rogers, not Freddie.

Also, for that, you may as well..um.. go 2 hell @TheSummerwine20, Paul Rogers is an amazing vocalist, and only wanted to make attribute to the band and Freddie by collaborating with them.

Also, the band would not just be where they are because of Freddie, your also forgetting that both Brian May and Roger Taylor are amazing musicians and its also due to their efforts that the band did so well.
