Yeah, hi. I'm totally new here and I know nothing about this community, but I'm happy to join it. :)
I wanted to get more views for my Queen piano cover videos on YouTube, so I decided to come here and post them.
So, I'm a big fan of Queen and I've been arranging many of their songs for piano, both hits and non-hits. I recorded these covers and uploaded them to YouTube recently. Here they are:

Comments are appreciated. More is to come. I'm constantly learning new songs and recording once in a while, and then posting them here.

It must be thrilling to have your ability. You should be proud.
Here's what I thought:
BORAP - Freddie incarnate
Mustapha - Freddie prodigy
TSMGO - too rushed in parts, so emotion not coming across properly
BR - dashed off too quickly again missing the opportunity to play up the playfulness inherent to the song.
Just my opinions.
Can you please cover Who wants to live Forever?
Thank you

Thank you[/QUOTE] Yeah, I later noticed that I played some of the songs way too fast.
And yeah, I totally forgot Who Wants To Live Forever. Thanks for reminding, I'm going to record and upload that, too.
Thanks for your constructive comments. :)

Wow! Thanks for honoring my request. That was 4:15 of sheer musical bliss. Your phrasing is superb when you're unhurried. You have a natural gift.
How long have you been playing? Did Queen fuel your desire to learn music?

I've played piano since 2000, but I became a Queen fan when I heard Bohemian Rhapsody from radio about five yours ago. I soon arranged the song for piano. I've learned the rest of the songs that I've recorded during the last two years.

Wait a minute... you've "arranged the song for piano"??? That IS a piano on the original version.

By the way, I learned all of these by ear. I did have some sheet music for the piano parts of Bohemian Rhapsody, though.
Added links to my newest uploads (Killer Queen, Play The Game).
