It sucks to see this because he really enjoyed it and he likes making videos with me but the way people talk about him makes me not want to introduce anymore of my family.

The person who followed Queen was the legendary David Bowie who actually wrote Under Pressure with Freddie and Queen. Probably nobody BUT David Bowie could have followed this performance. It has been said that as Queen was on their way backstage and David was coming on to the stage. He turned to the Queen band members and said "You Bastards!" All in fun, though, David Bowie did a killer set as well and kept the crowd going. Bowie was a huge talent in his own right.

Your Brother gets it - Freddie proposed the name Queen because it was strong and regal sounding [too many people think they were gay - even Freddie was bi not gay] and the others liked it then Freddie designed the Royal looking Crest which is their trademark. The main issue with Freddie's voice on the day was that it cracked a little on some of the more difficult notes and he couldn't hold some notes as long as usual - but with other performers sounding the same or worse when live you don't notice until you see Queen in concert when Freddie wasn't sick! That is the mark of a true champion right there.

More throat infections and other symptoms. At that time, those symptoms didn't show themselves until around 5 years after originally contracting HIV. Meaning Freddie caught it around 1979-81. He started having symptoms in the mid 80s and had a test but the tests were new and unreliable so it could have been a false positive so he still had some hope that he was negative. But by 1987 it was confirmed that the HIV had developed into full blown AIDS. So although he didn't know for sure he had HIV during Live Aid, he sure as hell knew he could have been infected as he's already lost some previous lovers to it, therefore he stood a high chance of having it too.

Of course it’s all topped off with a crown. Also not sure if you realize Brian & Freddie came back later fir an encore. “Is this the world we created”. Simply amazing. Freddie, Brian & a 12 string.

The other bands did not use much of the stage at all. That just showed the difference between the caliber of acts.

Great reaction! Some important context. There was a major famine in Africa that hit Ethiopia particularly hard during the early and mid-80s. Mass amounts of people (children) were literally starving to death. The music industry responded in a big way. First, in 1984 European musicians formed a huge supergroup under the name Bandaid and recorded Do they Know its Christmas to raise money for the famine relief effort. You probably know it. It’s still played at Christmas every year. Then, the following year in 1985, all of the major American stars recorded We are the World as USA for Africa. These two songs raised a tremendous amount of money. An Irish musician named Bob Geldof followed this by putting together a simultaneous concert in London and Philadelphia with dozens of major music stars which was broadcast around the world live. That is what Live Aid was all about. It was a massive event treated as a telethon so you could call in to donate as the concerts went on all day and into the night. I was 12 years old and I will never forget watching this and knowing how important it was. There were so many good performances (a few not so good) but there is a reason why we all remember Queen’s performance so we’ll and why it has breathed new life all these years later. Simply, they stole the show. I don’t know if it’s true, but in the movie about Freddie’s life, they show the phone lines lighting up with donations during Queen’s performance. I hope it’s true and wouldn’t doubt it. The point is, their performance had a greater importance beyond just putting on a good show and they absolutely came through.

When We Will Rock You was played on the radio it was almost always followed by We Are the Champions because it was the next track on the album.

I rented a VCR from Rent-A-Center just so I could tape Live Aid off air. It took place in the UK and the US and lasted all day. Someday you should watch the whole thing. It was awesome. U2's set was pretty amazing also. And Phil Collins performed in London, then took the Concorde to the USA and played there on the same day. And Live Aid wasn't just a concert: It raised more than $125 million to fight famine in Etheopia.

You could say MJ stole some of his style from Freddie. In the early days of Queen Freddie painted the nails of one hand, he also wore a glove on one hand. Great reaction guys and welcome to the Queen rabbit hole brother.

When did he wear a glove? (besides the video for This thing called love? ) I binge watch Queen and have never seen one. Can't remember the song/video but there is one where Freddy has black nails on one hand and Brian has white on the other hand.

72,0000 people at Wembley, another 100,000 in Philadelphia, and 1,2 billion watching on TV globally. The Olympics have 3 satellites...Live Aid had 13. I wasn't a Queen fan at all, but after that day..I was lol! The world for Africa! I remember it was very hot that day in Wembley Stadium July 13th 1985 but it was worth it, best day in my life! 👏👏🇳🇱

Brian May, Queen's guitarist said recently in an interview I saw said in Queen's early days the band wanted to connect to their audiences. So - Brian May went off alone to write a song and Freddie went off also alone to write a song. They came back to the studio later and Freddie had written, "We Are The Champions". Brian May ( guitarist) had written, "We will Rock You." When asked about the name of the band - Freddie says it means whatever you want it to mean....but he wanted the band to be considered royalty.

I came from NYC to see Freddie n Roger n Brian and Queen at Live Aid I was 17. I cannot tell you what it was like but Amazing to have been there. I had seen Queen on their first US Tour at MSG in NYC and in also in Canada. That was the best show I have ever seen in my life, and I have seen Some of the best musician ever, this was hands down the best I have ever seen live in my life. But this was EPIC RIP Freddie

At the begining it looks like it's not his thing but then his head starts bobbin as the Queen effect starts and when he heard we are the champions 😂😂 I think the band name was Freddies idea becuase he was gay and at the time it was a thing that some gay men refered to themselves as queens pretty sure the rest of the band are straight hence the s was dropped...another great reaction👍😘

For this concert most bands came out and played a few songs. Freddie’s idea was let’s give them a mini concert in the short time we have on stage. They packed in as much as they could. He owned that crowd. Most amazing performance in the history of music. The greatest front man in the history of music. He always made sure the audience was involved as much as possible
