I saw it too, it was hairs on the back of the neck the whole time Queen were on stage..... there was no, and will never be, any band better live. They stole/owned the show. Obviously I'm bias due to seeing that performance at the time even if it was on tv.

At the time of Live Aid I was serving in the British Royal Marine Commandos in a refugee camp in Ethiopia. We listened to it on the radio. We were surrounded be the horror of the Famine, but when Queen came on the radio those poor soles who were there even reacted in a very positive way. I remember that a lot of us Royal Marine Commandos were crying watching some of the children dancing along, I'm teary eyed just remembering. I looked around at men I had fought alongside, who were tough, hardened Royal Marine Commandos who had fought a life and death war against Argentinian's in 82. By the end of Queen's set we were dancing with the children. It went along way to help build their trust in us. The famine is one of the two worst memories I have.

[@kimo2520]

@MrK. Wow! That is truly an extraordinary and life changing experience. Have you ever reached out to Queen to tell them that story? I think you should post your experience on Brian May's and Roger Taylor 's Instagram pages. Brian is especially active on Instagram and I'm sure he'd be very moved by your story! Thank you for sharing that with us!

[@samloveslfc]

You asked what race Freddie was, he was born in Zanzibar (under British rule at the time) to parents of Parsi decent. His birth name was Farrokh Bulsara. He was sent to British style boarding school in India as a young child until his mid teens. In his late teens he, his sister and his parents immigrated to England to avoid the revolution for independence in Zanzibar, and the rest, as they say is history. Hope this helps. EDIT : Brian May (lead guitar) wrote We will Rock You, Freddie wrote We Are The Champions. In fact all the band members wrote hit songs, Including No1's, for the band.

[@cheahweiren7638]

Nono it wasn't for independence of Zanzibar it was to depose the Arab monarchy and usher in majority African rule

[@barbaramay5048]

N dont forget Bass player Deaky..John Deacons .Another 1 Bites the Dust!!!

[@lizsmith9873]

Brian May's guitar, the famous Red Special was built by him and his father from an old table top and a fireplace mantel. A mantel was a shelf built across the top of a fireplace. He was 16. Queen's chief roady pulled the audio stops in the main BBC control room and replaced them so they would be louder than the other bands. This set has been regularly voted the top rock and roll set in a concert since the 1980's. I watched this live. And Freddy had a throat infection when he did the show.

Best description I saw from that day was one of the guys high on the Philadelphia management chain end of the gig. He looked out during Radio Ga Ga and saw the entire crowd doing the hand clap in sync.... to what was basically a giant television screen. Well, that and a great little aside from Brian talking about Freddie's impromptu playing with the crowd. Slightly paraphrased but: "You're there in front of 70,000 people who aren't your fans and millions of people worldwide on live TV, it'd be awful if you really screwed up. And there's Freddie going 'ehh what the hell ... Ay-oh!'".

[@angiepen]

The lead guitarist is DOCTOR Brian May. :) He has a PhD in astrophysics (and has consulted with NASA) because being freakin' awesome at only one thing wasn't enough for him. Brian and Roger (Taylor, the drummer) were both good singers, and each sang lead sometimes. I love Roger's voice, personally. When you do Somebody to Love, live in Montreal in '81, pay attention to the last couple of minutes -- that's Roger keeping the song going, a steady core of vocals, while Freddie scats. And listen for Roger's final "Yeaaaaaaah!" at the end. :) Freddie had a huge vocal range, but Roger's falsetto went a bit higher. (Roger's also the "Galileo!" parts in Bohemian Rhapsody.) After Freddie died in '91, John Deacon (awesome bassist, great songwriter, sang rarely) retired to live a very private life, but Brian and Roger hired singers and bass players and kept on touring as Queen; Adam Lambert is their current vocalist. They're both in their 70s now, and still rocking the fuck out of stadiums all over the world, because they're just that fantastic.

[@bronagh1579]

When great elements combine.....history is made.

[@debbielough7754]

I have to say, I love the fact that the specific branch of astrophysics he studied is so obscure, that when he went back to it, after breaking off decades earlier to go and be a rock star, nobody else had completed the research.

Freddie Mercury is one of the few that will *really* go down in the hall of fame. The fact that you 'got it' and recognised his talent is all that matters. Enjoy.

[@ClearTheRubble7]

Last year I watched the movie Bohemian Rhapsody with two of my (straight) musician friends, and then we spent the rest of the night looking up Queen videos (including the Live Aid concert), watching a music theorist analyze the structure of the song Bohemian Rhapsody, and discussing the movie, etc., etc. That's one great thing about music, especially when it's this good: It can transcend all the man-made barriers of race, class, religion, sexual orientation, political affiliation, nationality.

Freddie was recovering from laryngitis during this concert, which is why he dodged a couple of the high notes.

Freddy was the ultimate showman.. a tremendous larger than life personality who LOVED to get the audience involved.. He'd always said that the audience, was part of the act.. Another member of the band if you will... And to see him and Queen bringing so much joy to a young man such as yourself is really heartwarming.

Freddie Mercury said some time later that he was only at about 70% strength because of his health. He took 3-4 shots of vodka and went out on the stage. Queen wasn't originally scheduled to play that day; they were added after the event tickets had already been sold. They also didn't want to perform like every other artist or band. Others were only interested in promoting their latest hits or albums. Queen decided to do things a bit differently, which is why they played a lot of older (more familiar) stuff of theirs, except Hammer To Fall. It also explains the simplicity of the stage setup, the lights, and even the way they dressed. They didn't want the performance to be about being flamboyant; they wanted it to be all about the music. The next act to go on stage, after Queen, was the legendary David Bowie. It's noted that as he passed by Queen on his way to the stage, he was upset at how well they had been received by the crowd, and he reportedly said "How the f**k am I supposed to follow that?!?!" Queen had just owned the crowd (over 100,000 standing room only) for over 21 minutes, and in doing so, they set the standard for how a music performance was supposed to be done, and all the other acts had to scramble to try to match their intensity.

[@90PercentNerd]

I like you. You seem to be a functioning part of modern society yet at the same time you appreciate the stuff like this. Music will never be the same. We need more stuff like this

[@brookec.130]

Every time I listen to him I almost start crying, looking at this and how everyone loves him. It makes me so happy, he’s just so good, I can’t imagine having that good of voice. (His name is Freddie Mercury)

[@YaYa-ke1zr]

I remember seeing this on tv when I was 5. I vividly recall thinking that Freddie was a magician because he had all those people in the audience under some kind of spell.

[@johnniekilgore3499]

Freddy had the audience in his hands, they loved him!!!!

[@charlestaylor3027]

The crowd had been there 7 hours when Queen came on.

[@LuciA77]

Your reaction is fantastic! So glad to see someone your age, enjoying Queen! Keep up the great reaction kid! God bless 💕

[@julieivers7375]

75,000 in the stadium, millions worldwide! This was not solely a Queen crowd but boy did they control the audience! No-one comes close to Freddie for commanding a concert!

[@joandeluca6846]

Queen’s Live Aid was a MASTERPIECE! It was 20 minutes and has been said it’s the best rock show in history. Lead singer Freddie Mercury was born Farokh Bulsara in Zanzibar, 23 miles off the coast of East Africa. Lead guitarist Brian May and his father built that guitar and called it “Big Red”. The guitar was made from household items. The neck was part of a stair bannister, the frets were his mother’s buttons and the reverb was a knitting needle! Love your reaction!

[@THEGOLDENSPOD]

Really love your energy 🔥

[@noraheddy2407]

Ya know, I don't think Freddy would mind being called a Queen. Alltho. . he is a Rooster Queen😆

[@jacquelynruch6561]

I love how you make note on the difference between then and now... Not even close to the talent that existed then, and his voice should give you chills!! It dominated millions of people and still does....truely a legend we will always remember and never forget the Great Pretender.
