This 1984 song created by the famous English rock band Queen was released on "The Works" album. "I Want to Break Free" was written exclusively by bassist John Deacon out of frustration. It's one of Queen's greatest hits, in the UK Chart it peaked at number 3 and remained in the chart for fifteen consecutive weeks. The song was covered by the Romanian hard rock band Iris, at the 2003 edition of "Mamaia" Festival, one of the oldest and most important music festivals in Romania (the first edition took place in 1963). Iris played live this song as a tribute to Freddie Mercury (who would had been celebrating his 58th anniversary on that day). Cristi Minculescu said in an interview that Freddie Mercury is one of his personal favourite vocalists, along with David Coverdale, Paul Rodgers and Robert Plant - one of the golden voices of England. Each of these vocalists had a huge impact on the evolution of rock music, by creating their own styles of singing.

Superb!!! Felicitari Cristi-Iris.Excelent live !! am ascultat Freddy Mercury live in Japonia, Londra si comparand cu varianta aceasta , Cristi realizeaza o performanta extraordinara !!! O voce fascinanta! Sunt mai mult fun Freddy-Oueen decat Iris dar nu pot sa nu recunosc si apreciez talentul si profesionalismul lui Cristi ! Artistul acesta chiar "arde" pe scena de aceea il admir si respect !nu mai conteaza instrumentele din spate,vocea lui Cristi copleseste!!!

@MSylvain31 u are a fucking moron!

[SorinFromRomania]

Cand spui Freddie Mercury, spui zeul muzicii si cea mai buna voce masculina live si studio in materie de muzica. Doar cei care nu se pricep la muzica pot sa ma contrazica.

[raduguitar1996]

@eduardooo123 Da,dar probabil in loc sa zici IRIS ai nostri ziceai trupa "AIRIS" din USA...Sa fim mandtri ca s-au nascut aici:>...cine stie?poate a fost mai bine asa:-??.probabil daca nu ar fi existat cateva trupe printre care si ei,tarisoara asta a noastra ar fi fost mult in urma SI la capitolul muzica :).
