Avant, personne ne chantait dans les concerts... (la conception de We Will Rock You)

l'ambiance devait être si étrange ! Comment on peut ne pas chanter pendant un concert?

Transcript

00:00 You probably know this one.

00:01 This song was written specifically to make people sing

00:13 because before, during concerts, people didn't sing.

00:16 I'm not kidding.

00:16 We're in the 70s, Queen is exploding in the world

00:19 and they're doing big concerts.

00:21 And at the time, when rock bands were doing concerts,

00:23 people were moving their heads, jumping a bit,

00:26 but people weren't singing.

00:27 But during Queen's concerts, Brian May realized

00:29 that people were singing, and even finishing the songs

00:31 by singing the lyrics very loudly.

00:33 At first, his reaction was like

00:35 "Did we do something wrong?

00:37 Why isn't the audience moving?"

00:38 One night, they were finishing their show

00:40 and when they left the stage, Brian May heard the crowd

00:42 screaming in one voice, one of their songs.

00:43 And that's when he thought

00:45 "Well, it might be weird, but in reality, it's very cool."

00:47 It means that people appreciate us so much

00:49 that they sing and there's a real enthusiasm.

00:51 So he thinks, he sleeps,

00:52 and he ends up dreaming of a song

00:54 that people could participate in,

00:56 during which everyone could sing,

00:58 clap their hands and clap their feet.

00:59 Et c'est ainsi qu'aînés we will rock you.
