  • He should of been Mr. Wonka

  • @lacyt36  LOL

  • Oh god, Brain's eyebrows got me! xD 2:36

  • Mad? Yes... a mad genius!!

  • John Deacon at 4:15 - 'nuff said. XD

  • God he is still sexy even...I miss him so much but I'm glad for the technology that we have. We get to see him all the time.

  • I LOVE THIS AH

  • 156 people are not slightly mad, they are completely and totally sane, and therefore do not fully appreciate this masterpiece.

  • @TheMissMiscellaneous 156 THEY REALLY ARE SLIGHTY MAD

  • freddy mercury banna tree

    justin bieber poop tree

    most 2011 music pee tree

    under 2000 music whatever tree they wanna be

  • Im going slightly mad rite now because im so mind blown that THEIR SO AMAZING!!!!!!!

  • @anniethebrat Sorry but I've gotta do this. "I'm Going Slightly Mad" because you are yet another person that did not use the correct version of there, their or they're. In the context that you're using it, it's "they're". lol :-)

  • My favourite song EVER!

  • Oh dear... ^_^

  • That brilliant, talented man..was so sick when he did this. One of my favorite songs ever. I think of this song every day at work.

  • my cousin hates queen and i love it and whenever she hears me listening to this shes saying freddy mercury is a idot and stuff like that 2 miniutes later i lock her in her room for a hour and when i unlock it i puch him

  • @coolman9992 i think it is because shes a teenager that got hypnotized by justin biebr

  • Today 11/24/2011 - 20 years . Timeless !!!

  • Love early 90s return-to-form dark music!

  • For whatever reason when i watch this i remember the movie Zoolander. I think its just all the weird faces he does.

  • This wasn't their best album, however, this song along with Delilah and Days Of Our Lives are enough to warrant love from fans and non-fans alike (This is more new wave than rock. Probably why the album got poor reviews because people expected more rock :P)

  • Queen certainly takes its rightful place in rock 'n roll royalty. And it certainly had many, many, many a hit and great song, but to love all their stuff you certainly had to be a fan. For non-fans songs like this there just isn't much here.

  • my favorite part 2:55

    HIS FACE <3

  • WHY THE HELL DOES THIS REMIND ME OF ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW?

  • 3:52 didn't realise the video broke into colour (aside from the very last part of the video with Deacon on the stairs).

  • Considering that Freddie Mercury isn't going to live much longer, I'm amazed that he still had a sense of humour in these videos.

  • I'm going slightly mad too, and yet we all are.

  • Greatest Vocalist of all time, Period.

  • 1:55 donkey kong would love that

  • 154 people have gone slightly mad....... all right, more than slightly mad, very mad.

  • R.I.P Freddie 

  • How dare you all who pressed the dislike button. Freddie is te most original and incredible man that lived! I know that and im 14yrs old!!!! I will find the people that pressed dislike and make you like it, dont mess with Queen unless you would like to get some of me ''THE BIGGEST !$YR OLD QUEEN FAN'' WHAT!!!!???

  • My sis thinks Freddie Mercury is hot and sexy. LOL! XD

  • Does anyone else think that Freddie Mercury looks like Johnny Depp here? Freddie's also got a Vincent Price kind of thing goin on! ...I think if they ever make a movie about freddie Mercury, Johnny Depp should play him...maybe.

  • @1rammstein21 johnny depp would be amazing for a part like that.

  • this is my ringtone...grew up with guys saw them in concert in '77 and '78 just brilliant Freddie Mercury was a gem the best frontman ever..he had a amazing pure voice. Brian May guitar master Roger Taylor on drums great and John Deacon probably one of the most underrated bass players..he is really good all 4 brilliant song writers so cool that 40 years after the band came together the music they made is still going on...how sad that 20 of those years have been without Freddie...he is missed

  • @helga284 that should be freddie's title,but sadly,bon scott (former frontman of AC/DC) got that title:( but seriously,who puts bon scott in front of freddie mercury!

  • @MasterNcognito no one with any taste in music!! I can say from personal expierence having see Queen 2 times also saw Zeppelin,Sabbath,, Aerosmith, Rush, Foreigner to mention a few Freddie Mercury was the best front man ever..He grabbed you from the minute he got on stage and did not let go he blew me away with his presence was a true entertainer you could tell he loved what he did. no one has come close to him ..but thats just my humble opinion

  • I can't wait til the day when I can say this song is true about myself.

  • lmfaolmfaol LO0LOLOl!! ROFL1!!! HJAHHAHAHA BANANA TREE LOL OK LMFAO

  • EI cannot watch this without smiling because if you recall from the behind the scenes video of this you see a pinguin poop and i think that's bloody hilarious

  • @joeleffler Srry i ment i....Im using my phone so....

  • We all Love and Miss you Freddie

  • HOLY SHIT IT'S JOHNNY DEPP

  • i guess 152 people went completly mad.

  • This Should Be The Joker's Theme Song :3

  • @TheVTP or the mad hatters ;)

  • Only the great Freddie Mercury is allowed to be a banana tree.

  • There is no singer today that can match Freddie Mercury in his prime. I miss hearing Freddie's music and will always be a big fan of Queen. Long live Queen and Freddie Mercury. Happy Birthday Freddie and RIP.

  • I've always respected the entire band for the way they rallied around him at the end of his life in order to squeeze out what creativity Freddie had left to contribute.

  • Happy birthday freddie

  • Happy Birthday Freddie Mercury!!

  • Happy Birthday beautiful ~

    

  • happy 65 birthday Freddie

  • he really went david bowie on his last couple of videos here

  • God he's adorable here. When i first saw this video in 1992 I was completely clueless. No idea he was sick. No idea even when the video was made (I'm an American. We didn't get much Queen toward the end there.) All I knew when i saw this video was that he looked wonderful, and this was the coolest video ever. I think Freddie would have appreciated that.

  • Amen, quite the genius, and his voice is incomparable.

  • I think we all know where Tim Burton and Johnny Depp got the idea for the Mad Hatter makeup from!!!!! So many people owe SO much to Freddie and Queen. They are the best band out there their music is timeless!!!!

  • It's a shame when you say Freddie Mercury, most think of AIDS. He was such a great singer, artist and human being that I hope everyone will always remember him for those things and not for the disease that took his life. He lived more of a life in his short time frame than those who will live to their 70s and 80s ever will. Never did he complain when he was getting worse and never did he force other to take pity on him. His music will live forever. We will always love you Freddie!

  • @fantasyknuckleheads Indeed, curious actually why AIDS etc is brought up in conversation? Tim Richmond died of same thing if memory serves. NASCAR driver for the newbies. I never thought of ANY artist of caliber as gay or anything else. Why would I? I do not question people of talent?

  • Last week I showed my friend this song to him...... let's just say he absalutely loves queen now!!! Thumbsup if this iz AWESOME!!!!!

  • Anybody know when this was filmed? I'm guessing Feb or March 1991?

  • R.I.P freddie mercury i'd give the world if you were still doing your music today

  • Fun fact: Elton John was in the monkey suit.

  • @Medication102 Are you being serious or is that a joke?

  • @kkkatie00

    It's the truth. Elton was in the monkey suit.

  • @Medication102 It wouldn't surprise me - they were very close friends.

  • I could never have guessed Freddie was so sick while making this video he's so playful in it so theatrecal. Now knowing how sick he was while making this video it brakes my heart once again, the words of the song are heart wrenching. My brave, sweet Freddie you sing, dance make playful videos through unbeareable pain only you can do that and i am proud yes my baby you faced it with a grin, you did find a way to carry on, you top the bill and you overkill. yes my love you did it all gracefully.

  • i love this...

  • There is no "was" with Freddie, he IS still a musical genius.

  • @RBEO22 If he was suffering any dementia, it certainly didn't affect either his voice or his song-writing ability. He was, and yes, IS, one of the greats.

  • 0:30 John makes me LOL. I love how bored he looks.

    And OMG penguins!

  • Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor ,John Deacon. Queen have been a fan for a long time..they just had such a different sound so unique Amazing saw them in concert '77 and '78 brilliant it was not just 4 guys up there singing their albums live they grabbed you and took you on a musical journey. from the first cord,the first note you were swept away I saw alot of bands live and nobody did what they did Freddie was the best front man ever this is a great song..simply perfect

  • @helga284 hola iam from other contry but i love queen con mi corazon.

  • its hard to watch this :'( hes soooo sick in this video but he still continues for the band and his intense love of music, my biggest role model ever and he passed on before i was even born :"(

  • that is sch an AWESME look on him. That hair looks good on him. I want him to be my frankenstein

  • I can't stop listening to this song it is catchy, and the tune is addicting to one that is going slightly mad.... The tune is AWESOME!

  • My Theme Song

  • I want Deacy's hat!!!

  • 4:17 lol

  • the dudes face at the end. halarious(dont blame me if i spelled thsat wrong).and you have to agree that freddy looks like tim curry when he was in the rocky horror

  • HONK >:0)

  • honk.

  • is Brian the giant gorilla?? idk! love this made me laugh!! miss u freddie!!!! :,(

  • @96mychale I don't remember where I heard this, but I think it was Elton John in that gorilla suit!

  • BILLIE JOLENE is a chain smoking, thunderbird wine drinking, hot mess diva on the look out for a man. Just type in billiejolene1

    (it also features her pill popping friend Bobby Ray who's also on the lookout for a man as well).

    

  • @xGeneral213x but i wanna be a banana tree!!!!!!

  • I just saw this Queen documentary and when they first brought out that penguin and sat it next to Freddy it took a huge diarrhea poop and it spilled out over the chair they were all sitting on. All of the group had to get up, that was funny as shit XD

  • @ChameleonLost88 I think I saw that too. Was it called Queen: The Days of Our Lives ?

  • @Sodahpop96 Yes it was, great documentary!

  • Freddie Mercury=Banana Tree

    Brian May=Penguin

    Roger Taylor=Boiling Kettle

    John Deacon=Yo-yo Jester

    Yay!

    Hey, wait a minute,

    Freddie Mercury=Seriously Ill

    Nooo!

  • where's the mustache.

  • Comment removed

  • ohh he looked so sick....poor guy:( rest in peace freddie

  • The day Freddie died the world lost one of it's greatest talents. Rest in peace Freddie! As for this video I think it's probably his finest work it's certainly my favorite.

  • i only listen to this song on youtube... why?... because this song is more amazing with the video!

  • This song is based on AIDS induced dementia (which Freddie himself was going through at the time)..and THAT is the reason I feel sadness whenever I hear this song.

  • I wounder if people know the meaning to the song.

  • Beginning sounds like music from majora's mask

    All of it sounds like a majora's mask song

  • I love this song. I think this is their best that they have ever made!!! XD

  • Comment removed

  • Man I miss Freddie.

  • Freddie the most awsome vocalist only one in the 80's to rock combed hair R.I.P Freddie Murcury

  • Comment removed

  • This is my favorite queen song. And their most darkest of their catalog.

  • this is like my least favorite Queen song

  • Dear Aids, fuck you

  • by far my favorite video.

    flamboyant, camp, graceful, and as bizarre as hell.

  • I read from his costume designer that even though he was in heavy makeup, under heavy lights, and heavy costume, he would shiver when the take was over because he was so cold. He could also only stand 10 minutes or so at a time before his feet swelled up. Every time I look at Freddie, I try to remember good things, but he had such an incredibly awful death and I find it hard to get past that. This song is also about AIDS induced dementia. Freddie knew he wasn't as sharp as he once was. Sad...

  • @NeilFraudstrong well gee thanks, now whenever I hear this song, It'll make me sad instead of crazy.

  • @NeilFraudstrong But the best thing about Freddie is, he had such dedication that he worked through all of this to do something he loved:)

  • @NeilFraudstrong yes but don't worry they say he died very peacefully

  • @NeilFraudstrong and u could tell tht his voice got thinner.

  • @NeilFraudstrong Yes, it breaks my heart that He had passed such a painful death, but remember, he died doing something that he loved and was incredibly passionate about. This song is so symbolic for, not only how he felt because of AIDS, but because he needed to get some frustration out with everything that was going on, and what better way than to spend it with close ones and having a good time? Remember, he may have died in pain, but, not for ONE MOMENT do I believe that he died in vain. ^_^

  • @NeilFraudstrong omg i just started crying im so sad i miss freddie so much

  • @NeilFraudstrong

    And how do you know that is what the song is about?

    Huh?

    Well?

    huh?

  • Freddie's behavior in this video reminds me of Johnny Depp. I wonder if they influenced each other....

  • @HippieChick1776 Not likely, at least not Depp influencing Mercury. At the time of Mercury's death, Depp had only been in five films; mostly small dramatic roles. Only one of those roles, "Edward Scissorhands," was all "Deppy" and quirky, and that was in 1990. By that time, Freddie Mercury was no longer performing. So, no influence from Depp.

  • @HippieChick1776 I doubt it. Johnny was just a kid when Freddie had already made it big.

  • @HippieChick1776 That would be SO COOOL! Huge fan of zem both, but I doubt it. It seems like Depp knows all the oldies rock stars cept Freddie :'(

  • it's amazing how he looks in this video like he looked in the 70s.

  • This video is amazing. Freddy's persona completely matches his hair, clothes and makeup.

  • @xGeneral213x yep...not even Chuck Norris is allowed to be a banana tree...only Freddie :D

  • wait where the gorilla come from

  • for some reason in this video freddie reminds me of elizabeth taylor or liza minnelli

  • lol, did you guys know that the feathered sheet he is throwing around is actually one of his bed spreads?

  • I love this song..I was lucky enough to see Queen live a few times..'77 '78 and '82..they just blew me away every time!! Pure Genius..4 Amazing Men..this group never disapointed..Freddie Mercury..perfect voice..beautiful, sexy..sweet! Brian May master of the guitar..Roger Taylor great drummer..John Deacon..loved his bass..everyone an amazing songwriter...what a perfect combination..I miss your presence Farrokh Bulsara..you were a gift..This bands music will endure..I will always be a fan!

  • 151 people are normal.

  • freddie is 64 this year and is almost 65 wooh gods live forever!

  • 4:20 Freddie's so adorable. <3

    God, I love this man.

    Rest in Peace. <3

  • Queen is so cool the music play without them even playing any instruments!

  • And people were surprised he was gay?

  • This is the last TRUE queen video. TATDOL just had Freddie moving his arms around and smiling. This one shows Queen as the fun-loving, quirky, and just fun group.

  • incredibly talented man. Awesome song.

  • Yeah, even with the makeup he still looks quite ill. Damn shame.

  • 1:55 motherfuckers

  • Listening to this song without watching the video makes me sad. Freddie sounds sad in the song! And I read why he wrote too and it just makes me miss him so much!

  • Must be Mercury poisoning. (Sorry, that was bad)

  • Farrokh Bulsara....the world is a darker place without you... glad I grew up in the 70's and had a chance to see Queen live..... ! Left my first concert a little in love with .Freddie a voice as close to perfect as you get a sexy,beautiful soul I will always miss his presence.,Brian May guitar master, Roger Taylor amazing drums and that falsetto! John Deacon great on the base and wrote some of Queens most memorible songs...4 brilliant men who were a perfect fit. Much thanks for the MUSIC!!

  • I would make a smart comment on the 152 people who disliked this video, but I had gone slightly mad clicking the replay butten 8o

  • Man, this is just a Poor Man's Pink Floyd

  • @madogmgd Clearly on crack!

  • @madogmgd this is about freddie going nuts, not meant to look like anything from floyd

  • this video is pure genius! Ahhh Choo! damn, I'm getting the cold :-(

  • He looks a bit like Edward Scissorhands here. :)

  • Freddie i wish u were still alive, it wasnt ur time to die u were young

  • Thats great at 1:02 how the band moves down the couch away from him.

  • 152 people are still knitting with TWO needles and driving on FOUR wheels

  • Freddie is the best banana tree ever.

  • adorable video only queen could come up with that. Rock on

  • why does he look 15 years younger?

  • @MyDude1991 Heavy makeup, which was applied to mask his illness.

  • @PawzUK Also, I think it has something to do with the wig. I don't know about you but it takes me back to the days when he was much younger with the longer hair.

  • Such an awesome song. ^^ Freddie Mercury would of made one epic mad hatter.

  • It's eerie because Freddie looks so young...

  • Just bring back Queen..........

  • I think Queen must've been friends with Salvador Dali =)

  • 152 DEAF?!!!!

  • This song is amazing!!! I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • God wanted an angel to teach the others, that's why he has Freddie and we have gag a gaga

  • This video makes me so sad...the lyrics are about Freddies AIDS related dementia...he died a year after this was filmed...it's the last video he had creative input in...you can tell how sick and tired he is...so sad to see...

  • Freddie's character reminds me of Sweeney Todd.

  • @ichris2011 YESS!!!!!! Ah,awesome.Just awesome.

  • am i the only one who thinks this song should be on broadway somewhere?? this song is simply AMAZING! WE MISS YOU FREDDIE!

  • 1:55 hahahahahahaahahahahahahhhahah­ahaah thats so fucking awesome
