  • Are they pulling a Britney Spears here?? Lip syncing? I'm sure Freddie didn't approve of this.. must have been forced into this. Freddie hated playing music the way it sounds on CD. He used to say the point of a show is to entertain and make the songs sound different from the CD... otherwise the audience can just go home and pop in the CD if they want to hear the original sound.

  • They should have taken the micky and put Freddie on the guitar, Roger on the bass etc

see all

  • I was very surprised to find Freddie lip syncing in this video. I have Greatest Video Hits 2, and re watched it just for this purpose, to make sure my eyes weren't deceiving me... yeah, they weren't. My mom disagreed, but I can clearly see many times that he's not even holding the mic to his face at times, and still singing, lol. Or a moment where he's a couple seconds off.

    Shame it wasn't a real live performance. I love Queen and Freddie <3 Good vocals, and just a great band that they were.

  • Just delete this top of the pops shite. Re: Nirvana Smells like teen spirit> It can happen to the best of people. Shoot Simon Cowell; because of him and the likes, no music like this will ever exist again!

  • its weird watching them mime. lol! still an amazing LIVE band though...FACT!

  • @bettescorpio And how did the band feel? Faking that you're playing an instrument must be the most stupid thing ever XD

  • Playback de mierda.

  • deacy's bass LOL!

  • @raduran13 no they didn't, there would be footage if there was of the live stuff you mention. There are diary breakdowns of this and they were forced to do playback against their will, that's all. That's why Freddie does the Deee-oooo bit during this gig (just YT it)

  • Its the Golden rose pop festival, a fast festival which means instead of each band getting the time they need to rig up, they lip sync... Tho with queen doesnt matter, could have put a CD player on the stage and the crowd would go insane when queen songs came out of it probably:D FRIENDS WILL BE FRIENDS!
