how great for Luke to sing this wonderful Queen song and for Queen to have these wonderful musicians play their song..!! 😊❤

I’m a massive Freddie and Queen fan, but this rendition of ‘Who wants to live forever’ is possibly no definitely the best I’ve heard, and I’m sure Freddie would agree. Luke Evans delivers one of the best performance of this song I’ve ever heard, gave me goosebumps. The graphics are also incredible. I’m blown away by the feeling and emotion you bring to this song. I want to hear more. ❤️

😮song is genius..singing is genius..video is genius..Luke & Queen are genius!!!! Freddie sang it first but Brian May wrote it... Kudos to all!!!! Love to think Luke and Brian May have met and that they shook hands in shared respect!!! 😊❤😊

[rwtsdtvic]

Noone wants to live forever, but we all wish Freddie could have stayed to grow old with us for a while longer... but with Luke's voice and Queen's song and all the amazing musicians - we will know that at least this MUSIC will live forever!!🎸🪕🎻🪘🪗🎷🎺🎹 ❤😊

[Tawroset]

That last line "who wants forever anyway"... you're killing me here, Luke.

[clairemikhail]

O Luke, you should make an album with WNO!! I think the whole of Wales would buy it - not to mention the rest f the world!! This is divine my darling!!

[jenniferdoolan]

[maryhamrick]

Luke did it again. His voice holds so much beauty to it. He sings wish so much emotion it, its beautiful. The way they done this song is amazing. It took my breath away.

[KodyRhynehart]

Just beautiful ❤ such an amazing song, done justice by an awesome group of talented artists ❤❤❤. I am sure Freddie Mercury would be proud.

Freddie would be SO proud! This is - next to the original - by far the best version ever. No one else even comes close!

This song by Brian May is one of my favourites - this is an inspired rendition with Luke and the WNO!! What a wonderful combination!! I think Luke should do a whole album with the WNO.

LUKE - I am a HUGE fan of yours. I’m 68 and truly enjoy your movies. However, I just recently discovered your FANTASTIC gift of vocal presentations. And WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER is one of my all-time top songs.
BEAUTIFULLY performed, sir.

This is one of my favourite Queen songs, and Luke sang it so beautifully... Freddie is smiling in Heaven

Stunning! I would never have thought it would work, having WNO singing with Luke Evans. But this is beautiful. Thank you!

[missingmac]

I would live forever if I had Luke standing by my side sing this beautiful song
