Queen Deep Dive: Right 'till the end, "Friends Will Be Friends"
Manage episode 406728982 series 3548696
Another gorgeous Freddie/John co-write and one of Queen's last piano-driven songs, "Friends Will Be Friends" is an impactful power rock ballad that emphasizes the importance of relationships. Freddie performs his lyrics with impressive dynamics, tackling massive intervals effortlessly. Brian's guitar is soulful as ever, complimenting Freddie's brilliance. John provides rhythm guitar alongside his immaculate bass, and Roger's delicate percussion is perfection. Live, this was a moving number tucked between two longstanding setlist closers; and fans loved it.
