See What Happens When They Request I Play Queen Bohemian Rhapsody | Cole Lam 15 Years Old

4,066,753 Views • Jun 20, 2022 • Click to toggle off description
It's been quite a while since I played @Queen out at in public on the pianos, so it really was time to do it at the Elton John Yamaha piano in London St Pancras International Train Station. It's the location that really has been like a second home for me musically and it's where I played Bohemian Rhapsody almost 3 years ago, and that video has gone over a ridiculous 100 Million views. That's crazy right?

So I started with Don't Stop Me Now, which is one of my favourite to play as it's just relentless energy and you can just lose yourself in the adrenalin of the song. I thought on this one that I would jump up for the big bit and keep forgetting that I am taller than I think I am! Then my dad asks the two ladies what is their favourite Queen song, and of course it has to be Bohemian Rhapsody! I mean, is there any other answer to that question? Well, there is, and whatever it is would be wrong!

Listening to it and comparing it to the earlier versions that I have played, it's evolved to be a little bit more delicate in places, and in other areas there is a slight more burst of energy. It's always that little bit different - which is why I love Freddie Mercury's masterpiece - Bohemian Rhapsody, there is so much to explore and learn from it.

Freddie said “I don’t care what they do with my music just don’t make it boring”. Cole u have surpassed that and Freddie would have given u a standing ovation. Brilliant.

He played it all from memory too. Awesome performance. Was anyone else reciting the lyrics in their head as I was?

It's sad that a lot of people walk by without even a glance. Sure most of them have things to do places to be. But glance once at least! This is pure skill! You can tell he has been playing piano for a long long time. I can play the piano but not by ear and definitely not without a music sheet in front of me. Absolutely wonderful to listen to.

Bohemian Rhapsody without a music sheet... I used to play this in an orchestra and even the double bass parts I couldn’t memorize 😂 Really really impressive.

Greetings from an old lady (im 60),across the pond (U.S.A.). I have loved Freddie and Queen for about 47yrs., so hearing his ( and their) music is always a treat. You and your playing are incredible. Freddie would be proud of you. You have a God given talent. Never stop playing. I look forward to seeing & hearing more from you on here. Would love to hear "Love of My Life" and "Who Wants To Live Forever". The last one was my husbands (whom i lost just a short 10 months ago ) favorite Queen song

I don’t get how so many people walk by and don’t remotely acknowledge this mastery.

I've heard this played by many people in train and bus stations. They played the music, the notes, the form, but you played the essence of this piece of genius. Thank you. Well done.

Well, I think this is exactly what Freddie meant while singing "The Show must go on!" My big Respect for this amazing performance! I wish Brian May, Roger Taylor or John Deacon will find this video and can enjoy it too.

Cole, this is the first time I’m hearing you and your interpretation of the Queen repertoire and it is just inspired and so genius. You somehow bring another level to the music I haven’t heard before even by professional orchestras who cover Queen sometimes. Your technique reminds me somewhat of Liberace in the sense that you add a baroque element to these popular tunes with the elaborate and luscious trills and falls and crescendos. It’s such a luscious and glossy reimagining and reinterpretation. I could listen to you for hours. Thank you all the way ‘down under’ from Sydney, Australia. 🙏

Your interpretation of this Queen "symphonic" classic is always going to be a big hit among young and old alike. Beautifully expressed and played.
