Uploaded by HawaiiTalks on Sep 23, 2011I, like many others, was blown away upon first hearing Marc Martel's audition of "Somebody To Love"...so much so that I wanted to do an actual comparison. Listen for yourselves and make your own judgement.
I would like to say that Freddie Mercury will never, ever, be able to be replaced. I don't think that's the point of Marc's incredible gift. If anything, it reminds us of just how special Freddie was, and what he means to all of us Queen fans, espescially those of us who never had the chance to see Freddie live and in person.
RIP, Freddie.
OH, and by the way, support Marc at this link as the original video is taken from the Auditions for the Queen Extravaganza!
