Celine Dion breaks down in tears while hearing a well-known performance of a Queen song

Queen songs are performed by the musical group Queen Extravaganza as they tour the globe. The group’s singer, Marc Martel, is also a pianist and guitarist. Mark rose to fame by imitating Freddie Mercury’s voice almost identically. As everyone is aware, Freddie Mercury led Queen’s vocal department and possessed an amazing four-octave vocal range.

Regretfully, Freddie Mercury passed away from AIDS in 1991 at the age of 45. Given that antiretroviral therapy for HIV became available five years later, and that by 1996, HIV was no longer a death sentence but rather a treatable condition, his death seems all the more terrible.

Marc Martel was performing at a performance that Celine Dion just attended. His rendition of Queen’s hit song “Somebody To Love” and his flawless impersonation of Freddie Mercury sent many in attendance, including Celine Dion, to tears, according to Newsner. Following Freddie’s passing, Celine Dion gave a tribute performance of “The Show Must Go On”. For Celine, this song holds a lot of emotional significance.

Freddie Mercury was born into an Indian family in Zanzibar, and he spent his early years attending English boarding schools in India before his family was forced to leave the island and relocate to England. Quebec is where Celine Dion was born in Canada. She started her musical career in French and has spoken the language since she was little. She picked up the language as an adult, CTV News reports.

Quebec is also the home of Marc Martel. He traveled to Nashville, Tennessee, and went on tour with the band Downhere, according to The Tennessean, when he learned he could sing like Freddie Mercury. Check out the video bellow to see the scene. Enjoy watching!
