  • well nobody will ever sound exactly like freddy but i think this guy does a REAL good job!!! <3

  • Price William on Lead, how unexpected!

  • C'MON MAN!!! please make a real mustache

  • This guy is awesome!!!!!

  • Amazing tribute to the greatest singer that ever lived....Lover Of Life....Singer Of Songs....Miss you everyday Freddie.

  • Don't die again

  • WOW,,,WELL DONE.

  • Doesn't have the same depth or range as Freddy. Acceptable --- maybe. I'd say keep looking for a replacement if that is what this is about!

  • this whole band if amazing...that's not a very easy song to perform, and they did it excellently..

    

  • how long has Freddie been dead? Is this his reincarnation??

  • this guy really is f'in amazing. true talent, absolutely

  • I have been a Huge Queen fan since the moment I was born in 1980, I was exposed to "Down Here" early because im Christian, unless you listen to Christian stations you probly hadnt heard them before. So I knew from as early as "Wide eyed and Mystified" how much like Freddy he sounds and look to a degree. I even sent him a lengthy letter begging him to do a cover of "Save Me". This revelation and consequent resolution is a dream come true for me. I will get to see Freddy after all!

  • good stuff

    

  • wow he is amazing but freddie miss u averey day of my life

  • Very Good...

  • wow..

    

  • Nice voice, but as has been said, Marc Martel is more of a 'tribute artist' than an 'artist.' Mimicry at its best, though.

  • @mieleD Artistry requires work, practice, dedication. He is laying the groundwork for a future of his own unique art, no need to look down cuz hes in this stage. You know how hard it is to learn singing as an art without starting with those before?

  • GET THIS MAN A MUSTACHE!!!

  • wow,wow,wow,wow,wow

    

  • Incredible! Thumbs way up

  • damn this dude sound just like Freddie

  • Who is this guy???? Incredible!!!!! (after Freddy of course....) :) xxxxx

  • Sounds like a BAD Queen tribute band Freddie had more talent in one finger than this shite..

  • @scottiejack160576 bad tribute are you nuts? they nailed every note,im a musician so i know and for the record,this guy has his own band,hes not a freddie clone,just loved him like we all did..so dont hate on him just cuz your dumb ass cant carry a tune.i can honestly say ive never seen a post with sooo many many fucktards comment ing on it,none of you know a thing a bout music..lol

  • tha thing has NOTHING and i say NOTHING to do with freddie...

    he's just a nice singer...just becuse he immitates freddie in "somebody to love" DOES NOT mean that his voice is much alike.. i just hope he does know that do...

    if he doesn't then my friend marc they will use you and they will drop you to the hole of shit...

    that's the music industry nowdays.. that's all folks

  • @AcidRainAgain Cool story bro.

  • @RoudyRaccoon that's not a story..that's a fact..reality...

    excuse me but i'm in the music industry and i think i know little bit more of you..

    why do you think that everyone in the whole world knows about that shit-kid justin bieber? it's the same thing... i just hope they wont do the same thing with this dude..

  • hes awesome

  • The best cover i've heard! Congratulations Marc! The timbre is similar

  • This gives me the chills :)

  • Greatest fuckin ever!!!!

  • Well, this guy is pretty unknown because he usually sings christian music. For the sake of the season check out his carol "How many kings".

  • _O_

  • He sings like studio Freddie. He needs to sing like live Freddie.

  • @MyNameIsBucket What's wrong with studio Freddie?

  • Far more than great cover!Even Queen has never played this song alive without a playback for the beginning part and the ending!!Even Freddie has never sung such a complete version, and usually lower several notes alive during some of their tours!! Mac is really like Freddie in his early years.But I'd say Freddie has a more powerful vocal and the song is also epic because of the song itself and its composer!! Wish Downhere can write such epic song in the future!

  • With eyes closed, it DOES sounds like Bulsara... Amazing !

  • awesome!!!

  • omg omg omg soooooooooooooooooo good

  • Dude....wtf, Mr.Soulauctioneer?!?! Thats your fucking criticism, the guy didn't sing soft enough.?.? Yikes! Do yourself a favor don't comment on anything else...This cat has something special. Although I'm a metal fan, I've always dug Queen and that was spot-ass wicked on the money. Keep rocking the Queen the tunes man...you're going places...Fucking bank on it!!

  • sorry, but I do believe Mr Mercury sang the early parts much quieter, Ive heard a lot of comments that he sounds so much like Freddie, yeah if you think Freddie sings Idol style. Not saying the man doesnt have a good voice but Im not so easily impressed either

  • Like all good things, he's Canadian, you know

  • Freddie's reincarnation....OMG....Close your eyes just doesn't miss a beat!~

  • The rest of Queen need to see this guy

  • where did they find this guy? HES AMAZING!

  • 11 pessoas com certeza nao desligaram o sertanejo universitario para ouvir isso

  • what the fu.k is this now every gay wants to be Freddy ... ridiculous

  • @paulojar he's not gay, he's got a wife. He's just got a killer (queen) voice. Also he's the singer in the new tribute band formed by the original drummer.

  • If you close your eyes and listen to this, you might think its Freddie back from the grave!!

  • oh my god i just cried unbelieveable

  • Guy, you are amazing , a Freddy's reincarnation.

    Brazil

  • Marc debe ser el sucesor de Freddie, por el timbre de voz, es extraordinario el parecido.

  • <3 <3 <3 <3

  • Best cover ever!!

  • quesquil attende pour reformer queen avc ce mec en chanteur? c tt simplement incroyable!

  • amazing!!!

    

  • Are those spectators mannequins? Anyway this is the best cover ever!!

  • OMG!its can be possible!Amazing!!!!!

  • Amazing.

  • Marc is the BEST person to represent the music of Freddie on stage!

  • Great voice, guitar solo killed it

  • AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • AMAZING!

  • merci c'est juste incroyable !

  • w...woha

  • o melhor cover dessa obra! e sinceramente, acredito que AO VIVO o QUEEN não conseguiu toca-la mais proxima da gravação original, tanto que nos corais sempre soltavam os playbacks com videos.

    Acho o Marc o cara perfeito para estar numa banda como "cover oficial com os proprios membros do Queen!" - vai lá rapá!!! \o/ God Bless you dude!

  • Ok the singing was outstanding. The only thing that really erked me was the absent wrist sweat band on the guitar player. Try to do something about that.

  • His voice is fine but not like Freddie. Marc's voice is more for theater not rock.

  • WOW AMAZING

    IVE BEEN A MASSIVE QUEEN FAN FOR 30 YEARS ,SAW QUEEN LIVE 11 TIMES AND HAVE BEEN PERFORMING A FREDDIE MERCURY/QUEEN TRIBUTE IN TENERIFE FOR THE PAST 10 YEARS,I THINK ITS TIME 2 HANG UP MY MIKE STAND AFTER HEARING THIS, ITS INCREDIBLE HOW COME IVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS GUY BEFORE HES WORLD CLASS 10/10

  • UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!!

  • You are gr8

  • Terrible imitador muy muy bueno....

  • is the cop from superbad singing?

  • Thank you all for viewing this video I thank all comments

  • @ABDIELMAY ..I hope Queen love this guy...somebody jump on the phone and dream

    of....

  • Even looks like Freddy!

  • @hurknet Freddie

  • Freddie is a legend, Marc is Marc and he needs time to grow but should not become a Freddie copy.

  • The singer is really awesome, but the band is not so good..

  • absolutely awesome voice....but please: next time go execute the lighting-technician before the show starts! seriously! ^^

  • iguaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal

  • Martel is a good replacement to Paul Rodgers...

  • @EduXicao Everybody is a good replacement to Paul Rodger!! XD.

  • @Kanedx What I mean is nobody will replace Freddie... but Marc rocks!! :)

  • OH MY GOD - what a great voice! I'm like.... OO

    Niesamowite!!

  • its like porn for my ears.

  • BELISSIMA APRESENTAÇÃO DESSE FREDINHO AI KKK  PARESE MUITO

  • TIMBRE MARAVILHOSO LEMBRA O FREDDIE SIM FEIXE OS OLHOS E LEMBRE................

  • AWESOME !!!! VERY TALENTED !!!

  • Great singer, sounds a BIT like Freddie at SOME points...but all this blabbering about 'reïncarnation' and shit...Get-the-fuck-out! I just hear a very good singer,. No reïncarnation!

  • @Pascalsmit1971 Clearly you can't see it all was just joking around. Relax.

  • Fantastic, great voice!!!

  • 7 people likes Justin Bieber.

  • I hear enough difference to say it makes marcs voice one flexible instrument can hear a few other ppl he could do

  • eh, the middle section was weak. Who ever arranged it failed. Other than that Marc did a nice job.

  • freddy mercury doesn't die! what a voice!

  • Freakin' awesome! Brilliant job, guys!

  • Thank you, Lord.

    Now, can you send back Janis, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix and Jeff Buckley, please?

    If not asking too much...

    This generation needs to know what rock really is.

    Thank you.

  • Pocas veces se ve una voz tan potente y expresiva con matices y brillantez en toda la amplitud del registro tecnicamente y emotivamente excelente brian may despierta

  • incredible!

  • This is WAY BETTER than Glee version , lol

  • @mutasim0hourani Glee sux

  • me engrifo los pelos jajaja que excelente me llega despues de tanto te encontraron muchacho donde estabas?

  • did Freddie die and come back as Marc Martel

  • AWESOME! AMAZING!! I never got to see Queen and the wonderful Freddy in concert. Please tour!!

  • É inacreditável, de verdade. Me dá um frio na espinha de ver isso. É de marejar os olhos. Espero que esse cara ainda venha pro Brasil.

  • The absolute best Freddie Mercury I've ever heard. And I come from a family of seven drummers who all played professionally since the late 60's. Here's wishing you the best career possible.

  • Only people who could do this song justice should sing it!!!!........and you my friend are the man!!!! Amazing!! thank you!!

  • perfeito... 

  • 5 people don't know who Freddy mercury is

  • Man I missed Freddy! Welcome back, I've tied many yellow ribbons around my Old Oak Tree in memory of Freddy.

  • HOLY FUCK SHIT BATMAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Fantastic

    Hugs from Brasil

  • instead of him, they want to put lady gaga to sing for queen. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS WORLD?????

  • @TheChickto they?who?

  • @TheChickto No. No. NO. NOOOOOOO. THAT CANNOT HAPPEN. WE NEED SOMEONE WITH A PEICE OF FREDDIE IN HIM, GOD AND FREDDIE DECIDED TO GIVE HIM THIS GIFT, DONT LET THAT HAPPEN.

  • @TheChickto As much as I appreciate Brian and Roger, we all know they are in this because of the money. And Lady Gaga can bring the most of it, unfortunately :(. The only thing that eases me is the fact that Lady Gaga is a huge fan of queen, and I think that counts for something.

  • @TheChickto Where did you get that crap? Do you really think they would deface themself like that? Not becase of GaGa I mean (brian did record you and I with here after all) but they started a contest. Do you really think they would go back on their word if they started something? Besides I did't see anywhere that GaGa was suppose to sing for the band. Where did you get that?

  • Why the hell do we have X Factor crap on tv?? just watch this guy on the Tube, he is fantastic.

  • wtf who is he performing for like 1 whishle and 2 golf claps that was amazing

  • I love it!!

  • Brilliant Marc....thank you.

  • He deffenetly has the pipes... And looks like Freddie ... If he can strut like him, I would pay good money to see this guy play with Queen.

  • the ultimate chanlenge for any freddie mercury cover is to sing The show must go on, including the highest notes

  • AWESOMENESS!!!!

    

  • BEAUTIFUL!! I think Freddie Mercury would've been pleased. 2007, wow.

  • I think Marc is *more* than proficient as a vocalist, but some kind words to be said about the band as well. That guitarist is really good. The right tone, the right sound, the right vibrato. A couple of small errors, but this guy is good. Once the Queen thing passes, I am pretty sure these guys may be the new hope for the sad state of music now. I really so. And when it comes to music, GOOD music, I know my stuff. Good luck Fellas....

  • Great performance. UNCANNY. Do a Queen tour m8.....V

  • Waouuuu grandiose... du grand art !!!

  • first it was.. hmm okay, then i got eargasm @_@

  • The guitar player looks like a young version of Mark Knofler's

  • A tad bit too much vibrato, and alot more gravel, but that is the closest I have ever seen to Freddie. A damned lot better than that fool Queen is touring with nowadays. Hell get this guy a carton of cigarettes and a plane ticket for England!

  • Its scary how Marc sounds identical to Freddy. 

  • Sick how he can sound that much like Freddie. Queen should tour with him :b

  • Perfectamundo! I could listen to you Mark for hours and hours. This was absolutely stunning performing. We'll be praying for you and hoping to see you in concert!!!!!!!! Your voice is just perfect!

  • OMG, congratulations!! You'll be very successful! Kisses from Brazil.

  • Comment removed

  • It's not that his stage presence is bad, we just can't really see it. He is singing in a church for chrissakes! Can't really let Freddie's spirit roam free in that place. The song however, was as perfect as it could be.

  • Congratulations!!

  • he isnt gay engouh, fixable tho

  • incredible!!! never Freddie could sing so good in live performance!!!

  • This man with this amazing voice deserves to be on top and delight us with his talent!!!!! Please Marc Martel, go for it, you can!!!

  • Muito Foda oO

    Parabens! 

  • Great voice! Very close to the original one!

  • simplemente....sublime!

    felicitaciones Marc.. que gran vos... tan buena como la de fredy

    Un abrazo desde Argentina!!

  • The background singers kind of ruined it for me

  • @mlintin really dude? i thought they were spot on! although they did add some lower major 3rd harmonies to some parts which sounded a little unnecessery to my ears.

  • Simply amazing. 

  • wow..that is a damn good version of the queen song.

  • Comment removed

  • VIVE FREDDY!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This guy is awesome but he just stands there....

  • Is this real life? Is this just fantasy? OMG! I'm impressed!

  • Best cover of the virtually "non-coverable" queen I've ever heard! Very natural sounding! Brian May should be talking to this guy!

  • where's the stache???

    lol ... this guy is amazing ... they should hire him as lead singer of queen ... IF he grows a stache

  • Amazing... of course the absolute climax at 4:06

    Thumbs up if you are Marc Martell's number one fan

  • 3 people are afraid of a person who raised from the dead.

  • Incredible!

  • Nahh.  Needs a mustache and spandex.

  • Very very good

  • So amazing!!!

  • Okay the first time I saw him in "Somebody to Love" I was astounded. Now I'm thinking, has Brian May heard this guy yet? Not saying that Queen needs to be formed again but it would be great to see this guy sing on national t.v. at least once. If nothing else, his voice, tone, and pitch are amazing. Great job!

  • amazing performance!!!bravo

  • Muito Bom!!! Na verdade, EXCELENTE!!! Tanto o vacalista Marc Martel e sua banda mataram a pau em um dos covers mais perfeitos que já pude ouvir dessa música, que aliás não é pra qualquer tocar e cantar!!!!

    NAO BASTA SER BOM... TEM QUE SER MAIS QUE ISSO!!!!

  • incredible...I miss Freddie's music so much and it is just exciting and heartening to hear someone sound so much like him...awesome vocals

  • Very nice!!!!

    Just was not better then Fred Mercury!

  • How does this AMAZING performance not have millions and millions of views???

    Send this to everyone you know people!
