  • anybody else get shiver up there spine during the bridge? (he's for every one of us..) or is just me?

  • fantastic, fantastic!

  • 1:31 I guess Seymour didn't feed his plants.

  • Comment removed

  • I listen to this song, i get chills and i end up humming it to myself days afterwards

    If there was ever a song that could make me want to be a superhero, it would be this

  • The best era of FILMATION...when they didnt reuse animation cels every 5 min like in He-man...which is sooo awful to watch now....Flash STILL holds up as fantastic animation! this and the star trek cartoon!

    NOW..onto one of the greatest bands of all time... QUEEN... the BRIDGE on this song is fucking amazing! sends chills up my spine...that mixed with ALEX RAYMONDS amazing art from the comics and strips...just genius!

    BRAVO ON THIS VIDEO! FINALLY SOMETHING GOOD ON YOUTUBE!

  • This is friggin' epic. I can see how they influenced Blind Guardian a bit.

  • He save everyone of us?

  • whats the name of the soundrack for when the hawkmen are charging the Ajax?

  • Brilliant clip...they should have got you to write the script for the movie!

  • New ringtone

  • すっげーカッコイイです。懐かしいし・・・。

  • EPIC I WANT THIS AS MY THEME SONG WHEN I WAKE UP IN THE DAY TIME !

  • 1:40 - 2:05...my motivation to be a good guy in this crazy world!!!!

  • R.I.P. Freddie Mercury, Buster Crabbe and everyone who contributed to "Flash Gordon"

  • Love this song. But I think Freddie just looked at a picture of Flash Gordon then wrote the song.

  • @Mirokuofnite What more would he have needed?

  • @GalacticBloopy Absolutely nothing.

  • @Mirokuofnite Freddie and Flash for the motherfking win.

  • Can't say enough... Miss all of them..

  • awesome video!!!!!! i am a huge queen fan... (since 1975) and have been collecting comics for over 30 years..... nice melding of two of my favourite things!

  • is this on the Queen's greatest hits album because if its not it should be!

  • I believe they could redo the movie now, but they might make it too campy or make the same mistake of the first one (it'll of course be a shorter film, since for some reason films are shorter now), but i digress, I LOVE QUEEN AND I LOVE THIS TUNE!

  • What a fantastic job you did on this. Blending the strips the movie and the cartoon serries together in an amazing blend. Loved that cartoon when I was a kid, Thanks so much!!

  • This is killer! Really great stuff.

  • Wa-wa-way-wait, they made an ANIMATED Flash Gordon?!

  • Great Job Man! This video is awesome..Thank you so much!

  • Somebody should do another Flash Gordon movie, with this as the theme obviously. With the success of a lot of the marvel comics movies in recent years nows a good a time as any. And Flash is just a normal guy in an extraordinary situation, no superpowers or any of that stuff.

  • Seriously, they need to re release the Filmation Flash Gordon with a new intro featuring the song by Queen.

  • Very good tribute, and it's worth it. One of the best animated series of all time.

  • Outstanding job on this video! I especially loved your including the montage of panels from Alex Raymond's comic strip used in the 1980 movie's opening credits. Were Freddie Mercury alive he'd probably approve of your work, after all he loved science-fiction art (tapping Kelly Freas to paint the News of the World LP jacket). Filmation did a fine job with this cartoon (heck, I didn't even mind Gremlin the baby dragon--but then I'm a Bat-Mite fan, too). Hail, Flash!

  • Man great work with this video, the classic cartoon combined with comic images, excellent job ; )

  • FLASH! ahhh!

  • Who wants to live forever?...

    Freddie will. Here, there,

    and fuckin' EVERYWHERE.

    (As long as music lives).

  • If this song doesn't make you want to go out and be a hero, you got no soul. And that's the whole truth, and that's all she wrote and that's the end of that.

  • I'm not really sure, but I think they make comics like that even now - but they don't make them cartoons anymore :(

    Sad, isn't it...

  • Was this made for that 80s remake of Flash Gordon?

  • i love queen so much <3

  • Filmation did some beautiful work. Thanks for posting. :-)

  • wow, this is frigging awesome !!!!

  • How old is this

  • @SERIOUSfreakSHOW 31 years old. hard to believe.

  • Just wanted to add my compliments on this video. I think this one of the best interpretations of the original comic. Plus I also like the Queen song, so a nice combo! Nice work!

  • SO COOL........

  • great 

  • Great work. My 10 month old son and I like watching this clip. I forgot how much of a Flash Gordon fan I was. I remember reading the old comic strip and watching the old serials with Buster Crabbe on Channel 50. The kids nowadays don't realize what they are missing. (IMHO)

  • Freaking awesome! Favorited!

  • rate me up if this song is fuckin strange but good

  • Not all Dogs Go To Heaven = Family Guy

    Blades of Glory

    All this led me here!

  • If you have not listened to this song, you have not lived.

  • i liked that part where it went FLASH AHHHHHHHHHHHH. just saying

  • Best Flash Gordon music video on YouTube. Great job!

  • @Edivion Thanks!

  • Queen and Flash Gordon; I remember the movie Flash Gordon, and it was good for its day. Flash Gordon and Ming The Merciless has some mythology problems, thus we see a lot of "flash" in gadgets, gizmos, and apparently some magic make their appearance in the Flash Gordon ideas. Ming the Merciless has come to represent the figurehead of the Beast of Society, that only consumes, pleasures itself, and Ruler of the Universe.

  • Good Show....Flash

  • the footage looks so camp and cheesy but the music makes it look epic great vid

  • probobly one of the greatest video montages ever made. plus it was really cool at the end at 2:20. It looked like the griffin said "FLASH!"

  • the greatest mortal super hero EVER ..sit down batman

  • He can never fail....

  • bkan the video men ... good very good !!!

  • Damn I remember when this Cartoon first came out,it was awesome to watch on Saturday mornings

  • Ditto.

  • I really miss the Flash Gordon cartoon series from the 70's

  • A fantastic job, and brilliantly edited!

  • long live Flash!!

  • long live flash - the saviour of our universe

  • I wanna see the muppets cover this mother... :D

  • A Flash of genius! You should be highly praised! I nerver seen such a blend of rock music and animation, since Heavy Metal!

  • Beautiful. Long live Queen.

  • uta que buen pedo,la vieja esta igualit a ashe-ra! jajaja

  • Flash!

    ...AA-AAA!!!

  • This song is already epic enough, but this editing makes it completely adictive. i can´t stop watching it!

    great work, man! this is pro level!

  • this is kick ass

  • Great job on the video!

  • Epic song, it's the only thing that's watchable in the movie. And the video compliments the song perfectly.

  • Are you kidding? That movie is so cheesy it's moved into fantastic! The song just puts an excalmation point to the end of it's greatness.

    Great video here by the way. Fantastic mix of three mediums!

  • freddie mercury is a musical genius. there will NEVER be a band like Queen. Brian May is also my favourite guitarist ever and this is one of my favourite songs ;)

  • BIG O BIG O BIG O BIG O

  • Aaah I remember watching this every single day as a kid... awesome cartoon. sure live action is kind of cheesy but it has it's value and I wouldn't call it a piece of crap.

    thanks for the video :)

  • I loved the live action show!

  • A reminder of why Freddie Mercury was one of the greatest voices of our time and Queen, a band that was able to actually tap into emotions. I forgot how cool this song was. I mean, if you can make Flash Gordon seem important, then you must have talent.

  • You speak the truth about Freddie. He had a four octave voice range which is rare for any singer. One of the greatest ever.

  • Srsly. I'm listening to this song and I'm like "Flash Gordon is the greatest person ever." :D

  • @thereelstuff I still think Flash Gordon is important; he's a lot better than Buck Rodgers :P I get what you're saying though, only Freddie Mercury could have sung this song.

  • @thereelstuff I can not think of any else band able to perform this them but Queen- even I am not a Queen fan. As we say in Spanish, "honour whom deserves be honoured".

  • big o big o

  • i cant stop thinking, of family guy's flash gordon homage. lol xD

  • Excellent work. This video capture the heart of the song and the exciting adventures perfectly!!

  • I remember this cartoon very well and I have it and the movie and the crappy ripoff from sci-fi channel on DVD

  • Comment removed

  • How can you forget Flash Gordon. Its one of my favorite movies. And one of the best soundtracks thanks to Queen.

  • old school Transformers fan huh?

  • wow im shocked anyone remembered this movie and or cartoon

  • the cartoon was much better than the live action pieces of crap.

  • great vid, thanks for posting

  • 神曲キター

    god music come

  • dude i love this video if somebody say somthing about it i'll kll them for real

  • It sucks.

    Just kidding. This video and song is awesome.

  • Sorry but I have to take the greatness of this video seriously! I really loved it. Thank you so much for sharing!

  • FLASH! AH-AHHHHHHHH!

  • i lov Queen but i LAUGH so hard at the corniness of this song

  • Flash and He-Man ruled.

  • That was awesome, it's too bad that the current generation is completely unaware of the existense of such great film. Excellent editing, my favorite part are the shots of Flash holding Dale.

  • im so confused. i always though flash gordon was that super fast guy on justice league...lmao this song pwns though

  • Tha Flash is owned by DC Comics and is on tha Justice League..FLASH GORDON has been around hell I believe since tha mid 20's in comic book,radio,and serial movies

  • SOUNDS LIKE TH BIG O THEME

  • This WAS tha inspiration for tha Big 0 theme actually

  • NICE! when did this cartoon run? Is it available on dvd?

  • YES

  • IN the early 80's it came on CBS on saturday mornings.

  • I am a big fan of the motion picture, didn't know there was a cartoon! Simply excellent job of editing the clips with the music! One of the best soundtracks ever. Now I gotta find out where to get the cartoon from, lol.

  • Ooo, this is sweat! {my exact verbal response}

  • wow amazing job with the editing. Queen theme choon and animated series rock

  • Very nice job.

  • Great editing job.

    A++++

  • Estas si eran caricaturas!!!!!!!!!!

  • Guauuuuu ¡¡¡¡ esta si era una verdadera caricatura de ciencia ficción; Increíble video y música de Queen gracias por deleitarnos con tan buen material ¡¡¡

  • this is the einlaufjingel or Mark Dudbridge Dart Player

  • I didn't know the guys behind "He-Man", "She-Ra", "Bravestarr" and "Fat Albert" did this.

  • lol i dont understand this superhero, he has no power all he does is play polo and yet he will save everyone of us?!

    but its still a good song

  • Hey there. Certainly Flash Gordon is not a "super hero" considering he has no super powers whatsoever. Precisely the cool thing about Flash Gordon is this idea that you dont need superpowers to change the world, but will, honourability, and teamwork. Thats all about it. Just a man, as Queens song has it. Thank you por posting!

  • @assurbanipalsegundo yeah but only if youre part of the aryan race like flash

  • @DomNNatious

    Funny enough, Sam Peppels, who wrote Flash Gordon´s pilot for Filmation, suggests Flash may be a colored person; he won two gold medals in Germany's Olympiad, just as Jesse Owens did.

  • @assurbanipalsegundo However, Freddy Mercury IS a super hero. He can transcend time and space, life and death, and has the power to make you dance.

  • Because being a true blue hero is a super-power in its own right.

  • @chichimanah fuck yea he will cos the song makes him a bad ass

  • WELL DONE AMAZING!!!!

  • love this

    haha "blades of glory"

  • I was about to say.. This sounds a lot like Queen. And now I see.

  • wow this was the best sci fi cartoon ever put on television!

  • Great video! 5 stars!

  • Wow, I haven't thought of this cartoon in ages. I loved watching this when I was growing up. The sheer number of creative characters and space ships had me enthralled.

  • This is absolutely brilliant! True to Flash Gordon with fantastic art!

  • Wow, this is AWESOME!!!

  • Thank you, thank you all for your comments!

  • Two words...WELL DONE!!

  • Legendary :]

  • This cartoon was a welcome surprise when it came out. True to the original pulp series without making it too cutesy because it was for kids.

  • pretty cool. love the theme tune

  • Thanks!

  • Too bad the idiots at Sci-fi didn't see this before they put on their turd of a program. Nice job!
