Queen: Behind The Hits - Roger Taylor (Episode 7)

ANYWAY, ROGER ❤ IS AS TALENTED AS BULSARA ❤, ALSO ARE JOHN ❤ AND BRIAN ❤ BUT, THE 3 OF THEM WERE ALWAYS UNDER THE SHADOW OF BULSARA. TRUE?

Im in love with my car😢

Happy Birthday Roger!🎉

I still have a hard time watching anything like the last video with FM looking so.....so-- --near the end💔😔

"A Kind of Magic", "Radio Ga Ga", "The Invisible Man", "Breakthru" and "These Are The Days Of Our Lives" hold special place in my heart

so insanely talented

Όλοι ένας κ ένας,

im in love with my car im out of words ITS SO GOOD

Roger, Thank you for sharing your talent... I will never forever
meeting you in Boston, Thanks to my roommate Brenda Mosher Bennett. Yes, she still is one hot ticket 🎟 Ken Lyons and Tombstone, Prince, Vanity , now performing A Cappela. Hope life is good for you and yours. Mary, the roommate who answered the phone.

these our the days of our lives was fred's final goodbye to thr world 😞😢its very sad and almost made me cry

No mention of "I'm in love with my car"?
It's an iconic song and part of Queen's favourite anecdotes in Bohemian Rhapsody.
Shameful.

They may as well have been a completely different band by the time these records happened.
Do the people who liked this stuff from the 80s even like their earlier, amazing music?

I really really really love your dance moves John Deacon❤ it always makes me giggle i don't know why😆😆

Here’s a meme:
The board: what bug is this?
Knight: it’s a spider
The board: is it a spider?
Knight: it IS a spider.
The teacher: prove it’s a spider!
Another student: yo, just freaking look at it!!

This theme is hollow knight lol 😂

1. Radio Ga Ga
2. A Kind Of Magic
3. Invisble Man
4. Breakthru
5. These Are The Days Of Our Lives

I have my 6 months son I gave him to the name Roger Tylor giri
Roger Taylor is my inspiration I play drums because of Roger Tylor

It's so cool that the video for "Radio Ga Ga" incorporates footage from "Metropolis".

I have a lot to say but right now, I can't articulate what I want to say in one comment. I feel euphoric, depressed, and disoriented at the same time.

This band is making me think and feel all kinds of things

Roger te amo

And don’t forget Heaven for everyone, which was written by Roger and reached no2 in the UK

I always thought it was John who wrote the invisible man and breakthru. Well done Roger 👏

Can you play and react to =Queen ONE VISION ?

I am in love with my caaaaaaaaar

All we hear is Radio Gaga Radio Gugu Radio Blah Blah

One flesh one bone one true religion
One voice one hope real decision

Those were the days of our lives

Call harsh, me but I think it should be a hanging offense to list Roger's songs and not even mention Drowse.

They all are great, nothing new. But , being a fan since the 70's, I think the typical Queen sound is created by Roger. That sound that ,with only a couple of compases, makes you guess you're listening to Queen.

Roger Taylor was perhaps one of the most prolific writers in Queen with 8 'Solo' Albums (3 as lead writer, singer & rhythm guitarist with 'The Cross.' Also uncredited in this video is 'Heaven For Everyone' from the 'Made In Heaven' Album - originally written by Roger, recorded in the 1980's as 'The Cross' on the Album 'Shove It' with an uncredited guest-lead-vocalist - a certain Freddie Mercury; arguably this was a far better version with a lighter, more up-beat tempo and feel, than the reworked 'Queen' version which reached UK No2 in the Charts. Bizarrely, the original 'The Cross' single didn't chart and featured a Roger Taylor vocal (with Freddie on backing vocals) as a juxtaposition to the album version with Freddie on lead vocal.
Roger's solo efforts have been exceptional and hugely under-rated; 'Man On Fire' from the album 'Strange Frontier' was actually rejected by Queen for the Works... Rogers solo version is a stomping and raucous number which is loved at live shows; quite why it was rejected by Queen is a mystery - perhaps there was fear about 2 massive hits from 'The Works' - and certainly would've been wonderful to hear Freddie sing it. Other solo wonders include the beautiful tribute to Freddie - 'Old Friends' - easily as good or better than the RT penned 'These Are the Days Of Days Of Our Lives'; Happiness; Dear Mr Murdoch ( a wonderful satire on Rupert Murdoch ), Foreign Sand, the stomping 'Shove It', 'Love Lies Bleeding' (with Brian May as an uncredited guitar soloist); 'C-Lebrity' (suspected) and the outstanding 'The Horse Whisperers'; not forgetting of course 'Strange Frontier' and the superb 'It's An Illusion' (with the late Rick Parfitt of Quo).
In my humble opinion, Fun On Earth was really a shadow of his other albums in terms of song-writing prowess - but I remain ever hopeful for the forthcoming 'Outsider' and his shows...

I always believed, The Invisible Man must be John´s song, simply because of the bass-like beat.

Great songs, but I want more. Please, record a Queen+Adam Lambert studio album!

Bequeathing every Friday to see each episode of the series with emotion. Congratulations!!

We are incredibly lucky to be born having Queen!

Roger Taylor wasn't only a best buddy of Freddie Mercury. He was also a serious student of Freddie's life philosophy - example - 'you're free to be all you want to be. Roger was confident of reaching personal goals regarding his music, for sure, i.e., Roger wrote, produced and marketed his own compositions - many charting. Roger was the first of the four to do solo albums. To this day he steps from the Queen Box to be an entertainment icon on his own. I appreciate Roger for who he was with and for Queen and Freddie too - and for his commitment to personal goals.

Fun fact: these are the days of our lives isn't Freddie's last song. Freddie 's last song was mother's love because near the end Brian may takes over, Freddie died.

What I like about ROGERS compositions is that they are simple and have less cord changes, so they are easy to learn.

👍🏾

...NOT to mention Innuendo, BTW, is ridiculous... a #1 hit in England, for starters.

Im in love with Roger, Roger in the 70s till now❤️

His best work behind the kit is "Great King Rat" although the Ludwig Remasters ruin Queen 1 for me as the compression Bob used there makes the drums muddier than they ever were and there's parts where snare hits sound like a free credit on a pinball machine letting loose.

All of them were extremely talented. Long live legendary Queen!

Roger is and always has been such an amazingly wonderful musician ♥️

OH MY GOD RADIO GA GA IS MY MOST FAVORITE SONG.. WHEN I HEARD IT I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS WRITTEN BY ROGER. BUT HIS WRITING ALWAYS AFFECTED ME IN A WAY I CAN'T EXPLAIN. WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING. HE IS AN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING PERSON & ARTIST. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH.💖💚❤️💙💕💜 BUT OFTEN I FEEL HIS CONTRIBUTION TO QUEEN & OVERALL MUSIC.. HIS TALENT IS OVERLOOKED OR NOT GREATLY APPRECIATED. HE PLAYED DRUMS, WROTE SUPERB SONGS, ALSO HE WAS THE BACK UP VOCALIST FOR FREDDIE EVEN WHEN FREDDIE GOT TIRED USING HIS VOICE SO MUCH ROGER TOOK OVER TO GIVE HIM SOME REST. IT'S NOT EASY AT ALL. I LOVE HIM MORE THAN ANYTHING 😘😘😘😘🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 AND WHAT CAN BE SAID ABOUT HIS FALSETTO? HIS VOICE IS MAGICAL! POWERFUL! BEAUTIFUL...AND LOOK AT THAT FACE! JUST ETHEREAL! 🔥🔥😍😍LEGEND

I love that sometimes his drums had his face on them
