I love these reaction videos. It feels like discovering it all over again.

[Twoflower]

1. Me too.

[leftieNanner]

2. Love it!

I bought the Bohemian Rhapsody soundtrack and I play it in the car really LOUD!

Crazy old white haired lady driving down the street.

[MuseRider]

6. Me too!

Love it, love them, LOVE Freddie forever. 70 years old, good music never dies and should always be played so others can hear it.

12. I have the 45 of this song.

I had to buy the CD for my car....it is one of my favorite CDs to play and my driving always is better if this song is playing.

3. Just WOW.

I had goosebumps all throughout . It reminded me of the very first I head this masterpiece.

Thanks for posting this.

5. Greatness!

[MorbidButterflyTat]

10. Oops, sorry!

[Lunabell]

7. I love their reaction!!

Listening to greatness for the first time. The cross-cultural appreciation of genius.

8. Had this album and used to play it on my portable phonograph

Every time I played it if my a dad was home he’d come in and stop and listen. He was into big bands Count Basie being his favorite but he loved this song.

And the line mama I killed a man was changed from I kissed a man.

9. Now QUEEN.on the other hand,

The ears prick up.

50 years later, mine still do.

11. I've been a Queen fan for over 40 years

My 14 year old self aspired to be Mrs. Brian May. Alas, it was not meant to be (yet?).

Love them all, always.

[LuvLoogie]

15. I love the groove he lays down on this cut...

And the solos he ripped? Talk about wielding an ax...

24. Haven't heard that song in quite a while.

That reminds me of the video for "Crazy Little Thing Called Love," with those gorgeous skinny women in hot pants...I was so jealous!

How about those riffs, tho!

[TexasBushwhacker]

32. Don't Stop Me Now

I always like this one. Even though Freddie was the masterful front man, they were all at the top of their game. Roger Taylor's drumsticks are a blur!

18. 😁

I'm sure it wouldn't be the first time he's heard that.

(Been texting with him for a few weeks now.)

[MorbidButterflyTat]

25. What the....?

Don't break my heart!

[ProfessorGAC]

33. Keep Yourself Alive

I heard that song once and knew that Queen was the real deal.

[Torchlight]

13. I spend a lunch hour or two a week wasting time w/ reaction videos.

Watching someone get amazed by something outside of their comfort zones by something I really, really dig is its own pretty good high.

[patphil]

14. This song is their masterpiece. I've heard it hundreds of times, and it never gets old.

[KarenS]

16. I love reaction videos too!!

I agree ~ "It does feel like discovering it all over again."

[orleans]

17. "wow..." "wow." "wow..."

someone was wowed by this song

[carpediem]

19. Love this! Thanks for posting!

[peppertree]

20. Had a good friend who was a big Queen fan

Never much cared for them myself - but it was fun seeing him sing along and mimic some of Freddy Mercury's expressions.

"I don't wanna dieeee - sometimes I wish I'd never been born at all..."

[calimary]

21. LOVED this! Loved THEM, too!

Those two had never heard “Bohemian Rhapsody” before? What a revelation that must have been!

STILL one of the all-time GREATEST rock songs!

[hay rick]

22. I enjoy reaction videos from time to time. nt

[Solly Mack]

23. His enjoyment thrilled me. Reminded me of the first time I heard the song.

Just brought it all back.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

26. Can everyone believe this song is almost

FIFTY years old?!

[Srkdqltr]

27. all the good music is that old.

[captain queeg]

28. I saw them in concert back in the day. Twice. Lynard Skynyrd too.

I didn’t really appreciate Queen back then, just focused on their hard rock. And Skynyrd before the plane crash. I think that was my first outdoor concert.

[paleotn]

29. That it does. Love the rediscovery! Freddie and the boys are still fabulous after all these years!

Can't resist this. I'm a bit older than Wayne and Garth but I could certainly relate. Jamming with the buds in the beater. That's me before the big hair cut and 4 years in the Navy. Back when I actually had hair.

[live love laugh]

30. Tears. The gift of greatness always brings me to tears. ❣️

[LudwigPastorius]

31. "Dude! That was Sikh!"

"...err...I mean SICK!"

[ProfessorGAC]

34. A Fun Watch

The two of them were great.
