Hey guys you should watch Queens whole performance from Live Aid in 1985 (About 20 mins). One of the finest performances by any band ever. No one that day had the audience like Freddie! Ayyyyy-oh!!!

Completely agree. I was not a listener of Queen's music growing up only because I was more of a hard rock guy band like Zeppelin, but I always appreciated them and sang along with most any song I heard on the radio. But after seeing this concert and seeing how Queen dominated that concert over every other band I became a big fan. I never realized how great they were live. But this performance scared all the bands that had to follow Queen that day. And who could blame any of them. And to think Freddy Mercury wasn't well at all and shouldn't have been on stage. It probably was great medicine for him to be up there and seeing everyone go crazy for them.

Freddie was sick at this show, but this 20 min. at the Live-Aid-Festival were still one of the greatest live performances ever. Freddie had the crowd with one snip of his fingers. Do the whole 20 min. show from Live-Aid, you will never regret it. Radio Ga-Ga is an awesome exaple of how crowd-comanding Freddie was. I saw them once, back in 1986 in Muinich and it is still, one of the best shows I have ever seen, and I have seen a lot. Lady Ga-Ga named herself after the song Radio Ga-Ga, by the way. RIP Freddie, we miss you.

I was born in the summer 1982, and though I know it's not possible, I have a memory of watching the Live Aid concert. Watching these recordings just brings back a sense of recognition I can't explain. Kinda like seeing the fall of rhw Berlin wall. I was too small to know what it was, but I remember a small me layung on the livingroom floor playing or drawing and being in my own world while mum and dad watched the news, and the atmosphere of importance still lingers.

This is from their Live Aid performance and Freddie was sick. But he still killed it and the entire 20 minute show is considered to be one of the greatest live performances of all time. Saw this live on TV. I watched all day on MTV in 1985 for their set to come on. You really should watch the whole thing as they start with a truncated version of Bohemian Rhapsody. To me the 2nd song, Radio Gaga, is the highlight. That’s also the song that Lady Gaga took her name from.

Freddie loved big audiences, his words were "the bigger the better," and this audience was the whole world, Freddie wasn't going to miss that opportunity for anything. Thank you for this reaction. Yeah, Freddie was a natural. Brian May said Freddie was always a Rock Star, even before he actually was, he believed himself to be.

Queen rehearsed for that Live Aid performance as they hired out a studio and rehearsed every song for their set until it was perfect. Queen didn't just turn up and wing it as Freddie was a perfectionist and that day he showed the world why he was the best frontman & show others of that's how it's done. Freddie simply the best there was & best there ever will, nobody else like it before him & nobody else like it since. The GOAT.

I went to a public school in a small rural town growing up and the middle and high schools would play the chorus at the end of the morning and afternoon announcements when our football teams won their championship matches which happened nearly every year. Our highschool team's colors are black and gold. Their name is Trojans. Their mascot is a Roman general who would run up and down the sidelines with a big ass school Trojans flag when a touchdown or field goal was made. I wasn't ever in to the games or anything like that but it sure made me proud of my school. Great memories.

Freddie Mercury was a natural born performer; I 100% agree with Lex. It's hard to think of anyone with more stage presence and charmisma than he had. There are some performers who come close to it at times, but when you consider the range and diversity of the music Queen created and how Freddie sold it with his voice and made the listener feel like they were in the song with him all the time, it's really tough to compare him to anyone else IMO.

I was 19 when I watched Live Aid, the whole day from London and Philadelphia with all the best singers and bands in the world taking part. Every artist had a time slot of roughly 20mins. Queen were a late addition to the line up and some of the other artists did not want them taking part as they had performed at Sun City during Apartheid. My favourite band at the time U2 did their slot as did everyone else and it was quite frankly not great..... the use of time was generally poor but Queen came on and ..... well everyone knew Freddie, everyone loved him and I think everyone thought if Freddie cannot liven things up, no one could. They used their time brilliantly with songs the crowd could join in to and Freddie was Freddie at his best...... they blew me away, they blew everyone away and they were the best act by far on the day. I remember thinking at that moment that I had witnessed something very special. Afterwards all anyone could talk about in terms of the day was Freddie and Queen and how good they were. He was unique and no one since has come anywhere close.

I've always thought that kudos should go to the rest of Freddie's bandmates (Queen) for this 1985 Live Aid performance. It was 21 minutes of pure unbelievable joy! I watched it in a local pub - on screens usually reserved for the Football League or other national sporting events. I have been a Queen fan since 1973 or 1974 - Since the Seven Seas of Rhye/Killer Queen era - yep, I'm that old. As Freddie's health wasn't great at the time - not officially diagnosed with anything but suffering a sore throat and niggling health issues. Roger Taylor (Drummer/Vocals) helped Freddie deliver an astounding performance - When watching the whole performance, you can hear that Freddie's voice falters a bit later in the set - Roger hit the high notes with him. Brian May was as usual excellent on lead guitar and John Deacon kept the set going as bassist with Roger's drums ... The band Queen worked together. Queen were a band, not just Freddie Mercury, and they all had years of love and respect for each other

No one owned a crowd like Freddie! This was at Live Aid and it had the biggest names in music at the time, it was broadcast around the world on 3 times as many satellites as the Olympics, and there was no doubt in anyone's mind that Queen blew everyone off the stage and not only did the crowd at Wembley give themselves freely over to Freddie, but everyone watching at home did too! There's a video of him singing "Love of My Life" at Rock in Rio in front of 500,000 people with only Brian May playing guitar and keep in mind in Rio they speak Portuguese as a first language, and the crowd was singing in English along with Freddie!

I really miss the Freedom we used to have. If you notice...people were NOT in some "assigned seats". People were just standing next to each other, gathered together for the sake of the music. I was such a communal thing. Music, sports, Tv shows (before cable) brought a commonality to everyone back then. There were not so many divisions as there are now. People respected each other, hence why there could be so many people, smashed together at concerts and such and no problems. (Okay, there was that thing at Altamaha with the Rolling Stones, but really, that was ....well... ) I remember when people would all talk about how they watched this show or that, because we only had three channels back then, and no internet. We read books. I remember when The Lord of the Rings came out and amazed everyone...and inspired so very many musicians. (Led Zeppelin and the Moody Blues wrote many songs about or alluding to, the LOTR. Stairway to Heaven is supposed to allude to Goldberry, the wife of Tom Bombadill, actually, not Galadriel, btw) I am so sad that today, you really have no way of knowing how much you do not know.

Saturday, July 13th, 1985/...I was 17yrs old, in the crowd at the greatest concert of all time and one of the best performances in history.

He was ill with the flu and had a sore throat so his doctors advised him not to perform but he would not let his fans down so he went on stage and did this great performance. He had to moderate his singing because he could not reach some of the notes. He was so good most people did not notice.

You guys should definitely do the whole Live Aid set. A few others have said it but at this point the band were considered past it (hard to believe now) but in this 20 minute set they showed everyone how good they were and proved the doubters wrong. I have also heard a number of different stars to day reference this set as the one that made them decide to pursue rock. Dave Grohl said he was in a punk band and him and his friends tuned in to laugh and 20 minutes later they wanted to be a rock band.

I love that you love Queen and Freddie Mercury! I graduated in '82 and when people would ask my favorite group and I'd tell them Queen, I'd always get hit with, "They're queer," or "They're gay!" It was so frustrating that these people couldn't get past Freddie's flamboyance. I'm so glad people are able to see past it now. Too bad Freddie didn't live long enough to see people appreciating his talent not only as a singer but as a songwriter and a performer. Honestly, I still mourn him.

It was touch and go whether Freddie would be well enough to sing live that day - he had a throat infection etc. Last minute performers at the Live Aid concert and despite it being full of famous singers and bands, Queen, and in particular Freddie, stole the show.

You have to react to the whole Live Aid set. Around 20 min. This was at the end. It was a charity concert for Ethiopia. Their set is considered to be the greatest live rock performance.

Especially impressive when you consider that by Live Aid he was so sick he didn't know if he could preform up to his standard.

I think queen made this song based on the home town soccer (football team), Liverpool. Liverpool won their 1st European cup in 1977, that's when this song came out.😊😊😊

For discerning Queen fans who were there at the beginning (had the 1st album the week it came out) try out their brilliant live shows from the Rainbow in 1974 or at the Odeon Hammersmith in 1975. Look for Liar, Ogre Battle or Modern Times Rock and Roll for some seminal, hard rocking Queen before they became super stars but could give any band of that era all they could handle. What a great band in all eras, don't forget their early awesome work. Enjoy! 🎸
