I seen these guys in 2008 at the cne was vip so i got to meet the band under the bandshell while the spades started their set, i have met more then a few artists
Edwin to name another canadian and both The trews and Edwin are amazingly approachable. met edwin at his cd signing as well as at the horeshoe just after another spin came out really great guy. these guys were very approachable easy to speak to and an amazing live preformance
@TheHalen Edwin sucks, he should be approachable cause no one gives a fuck what he says. Way to be a name dropper, go out and meet some one relevent first tho.
Okay, this cover is alright, but seriously, Queen did it WAY better! All of you that think that he did it better (WTF, do you even have ears?!) are just a bunch of 'Nish loving losers that have never heard of any other music.
Video quality is shit. That's why it sounds like shit. They sound better live than on the radio. Trews are wicked. Bet Freddie couldn't sing poor ol broken hearted me like the trews can. They're not trying to sing bohemian rhapsody better than Freddie , they're just tryin to please the crowd. Jesus. Just havin a little fun. Why don't you queen lovers take it up the backdoor like Freddie did lmfao
huge Trews fan for their own music but this rendition is awesome!! I love love Queen but i thing this one of the best versions I've ever heard. Still one of my most favourite Trews performances ever!!
@XbackinkansasX you're trying to be funny...but sorry..don't give up your day job ...if you have one. I never claimed I could sing it...even if I could I wouldn't attemp it and make an ass out of myself like these guys.
Since you're an expert in music you should know the difference as well ..... but it seems you're NOT an expert. This is what I do for a living..... so it's a professional opinion on my part.
Take your mom's tit out your mouth and realize that i wasn't the person you were arguing with, dumbass. I just saw you're comment and realized how stupid and immature you are.
@TheDarknessOfTheAbys If you noticed I was arguing with someone else YOU should have been mature enough to keep your nose out of the conversation.
I would say you've been OWNED again.....but....
Before you call someone stupid and immature be sure to THINK before you type : "Take your mom's tit out your mouth" ..... a fine example of maturity !! Well done! ...what an idiot.
whoah, these guys seem to get the thing right on the spot - seems almost is the song is their own!! not many people can claim that! the trews are clearly a band of guys that appreciate both their instruments and their musical heroes. again not many people can claim that. i hope to see them live in person soon (that means a part of eastern europe area tour which not so many of such hidden gems can achieve).
The instrumental wasn't bad at all, The vocals, understandably of lesser quality than the adored Queen, Mercury was unbeatable altogether. But I've heard much worst versions of cover songs for Bohemian Rhapsody. Kudos for The Trews.
@FulchesterUnited I beg to differ about him singing it as good as Freddie did live..... Not even close. It's an "alright" try but this song shouldn't be covered.
i'm sure if brian maye saw this he would tell them what a good job they did, because they nailed it. So what if they cant sing like freddy mercury they still played it right on. The trews Rock period!
the thing that is amazing is that whenever Queen performed this song live, they did not perform the middle section. It was a tape and they took a break. These guys actual;ly tried to play it with the guyitar playing the accompaniment. truly amazing job.
This is actually a damn good cover... I haven't seen anyone do better. Obviously it's nothing compared to the original, but what cover of any song is? I highly doubt that they were trying to "beat Queen"... They were probably just trying to have fun & put a spin on a song that will never die.
The Trews utterly suck at performing Bohemian Rhapsody. But then, that's not really saying much. Heck, Queen probably had trouble performing this song live, just cause it's so demanding vocally.
Not bad, a tough song to do. Not so close to the original but that's ok!!!! If i want to hear the original I will listen to my cd. I like their version so for all the people who are complaining...it's a cover, get it?!?!?!?!?
Seriously, who the fuck does this? It's just too funny (in a pathetic/lameass way) that you'd take the time to search a Trews video just to watch it and make a stupid comment like this. Is it really that hard to get a life nowadays?
this song is an extremely hard song to play live, even queen themselves had to employ tapes of the original record to play it live, these guys did a great job of it without tapes, the only thing that could get quite right was the harmonies but thats because they are only a 4 piece. very good cover imo, drums were perfect as was the piano and guitar solo and the bass kept it together. awesome effort.
i agree with you.. the drums are spot on. haha, the guitar is really good as well. the solo part of the vocals arent that bad, but the harmony just isnt there. but seriously, who besides the eagles, can sing harmony during a live concert, and it sound good haha
lol I do think there is a purpose here .. I listen to this version because it's pretty darn close and there is a harmony that I sing that they miss so it's fun to go along, I can appreciate/disregard the imperfections ... but then it's back to Queen which they could never be confused with!!
well I am Canadian so lets narrow down my statement a little more. Theyre more famous than 90% of Canadian bands out there. How can you argue with that
im speakin about bands in general, not just major label or mainstream bands. There are tens of thousands of bands you will never hear of, so it would make sense to say the Trews are more famous than 90% of them.
i wish bands wouldnt just do covers of other peoples songs and come up with their own stuff. maybe if that would happen rock n roll would make a comeback.
the trews arent a cover band... they have two of their own albums. they had the most played radio song in canada in 2004. check out some of their original stuff, ya might like them.
this is nog bad at all. i mean to put it bluntly u guys just dont have the talent as queen but fr an average joe band this is rlly good. nice guitar work
