Although we may know many talented singers, the one that we perhaps know more than any other is Freddie Mercury. Although it is true that he died a number of decades ago, he continues to be a well-known performer and we know him through his videos and his music. It’s amazing when you think that somebody who passed away would become even more popular with his music after the fact. It’s almost like an artist that has paintings that become even more valuable after they die. Freddie Mercury is one of those individuals, and people continue to love what he gave to the music industry.
Not only are people interested in listening to Freddie Mercury’s music, there are also many who have decided to perform the music in some way or another. I’m sure that you recognize Bohemian Rhapsody has been performed perhaps more than any other song, both by those with a celebrity status and others, who just feel like singing. One of the celebrities that has decided to perform one of Freddie Mercury’s songs was an opera singer, Alfie Boe. If you know anything about opera, you probably recognize that he is an iconic singer and can perform in ways that are absolutely incredible. When he took on a Freddie Mercury song, however, he really took it to the next level.
Unlike many people who choose Bohemian Rhapsody as the song, this opera singer decided to sing another queen classic, ‘Don’t Stop Me Now’. He did more than sing it, however, he absolutely did it justice. I’m sure that you will get chills as you listen to his rendition.
You may have heard about Alfie before and you might even know some of his music but did you realize that he didn’t start out as a famous opera singer? In fact, he was a mechanic, but somebody heard him singing and knew someone in the music industry. It wasn’t long before he was a legend. Watch his rendition of Don’t Stop Me Now in the following video:
