Nice job on it btw. I never would have been able to figure out what they said completely. What a combo! | Reviewer: edmundthegrey | 6/19/07 This song is so amazing for a lot of reasons. And while David's vocal are a bit stonger they Mercury's they blend so well together. And course Bowie has always sounded great no matter what band is backing him. Gets better with each list. Possibly Queen's best song. #1...Mercury & Bowie are incredible...unforgettable! | Reviewer: Betsy | 6/14/07 This is possibly the best rock duet ever...I am a fan of both Bowie and Mercury...and they (together), bring a sound that no 2 other's could ever match. For the guy who says Mercury is way better than Bowie...you are an idiot!!! The purpose of the two of them together is that they harmonize like no other two can. Not to mention the stage presence that they bring to the song... My vote.....Absolutely Fabuluos!!!!!! It doesn't get ant better than this... Ab-Fab!!!!! | Reviewer: Betsy | 6/14/07 NO QUESTION...BOWIE AND MERCURY...IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT!!! My Favorite Queen Song | Reviewer: Midgetman | 6/13/07 Radio Gaa Gaa comes in a close second, but Under Pressure ROCKS OUT LOUD!!!!!!!!! Oh and just so that you know, Under Pressure is classical rock, not hard rock. Under presseure | Reviewer: letizia ingallina | 6/11/07 the last part is doesnt say "this is our last dance" twice. It's Amazing | Reviewer: Jet | 6/12/07 Everyone's crashing David Bowie's voice. ;( I'll admit Freddie's is far better, but I do love DB's voice, lol. This is an amazing song altogether, I love the last verse. Good Undrtanding of Humanity | Reviewer: Regina | 6/5/07 Ilove this song, but it drives me nuts that i cant find the year it came out What I love about this timeless song | Reviewer: Jill | 6/1/07 What I love about this timeless song is that it is *also* a precious time piece from when it was written. Also to me it describes a cycle. Not only is the beat catchy, but a message of inspiration is described within the depths of difficult human crisis and a hope for recovery. In 1981 , the year this song was written, the first case of AIDS was reported. In 1983 two years later after this song was written, David Bowie lost a fellow musical companion Klaus Nomi to AIDS complications. (A movie has come out to chronicle the work of Bowie/Nomi "The Nomi Song",2004) The reason I looked up these lyrics today was I had thought Bowie sang "And love dares you to care/For people on the edge of their life", when in fact he sang, "...people on the edge of the night..." When I think about it, the two could basically be the same thing, because "love dares you to change our way of caring about ourselves." To my ears, the last line will always be "This is ourselves Under Pressure." (Because to me that is the 'sound.' " That is the best I can do to explain the cyclical nature of this excellent piece. I have rarely encountered a song which is so interpretive, and yet so direct. Not a library book | Reviewer: doogie | 5/24/07 yes not too bad I must say ... not 'Queen's' best by a long shot , or David's for that matter: however a nice commercial success! Ole.
