Top 10 Freddie Mercury Moments

Queen Live Aid '85. No autotune, no attitude, no fancy clothes. Just jeans and t-shirts plus the most talented musicians on the planet.

I was going to my first real job 25 years ago, driving through Bristol in England early in the morning after his death. The news came on the radio announcing his death, playing Bohemian Rhapsody afterwards. Stuck in a traffic jam, I saw nearly everyone mouthing the words to it with tears rolling down their face.

[@MrScottev]

There is one fact people seem to be forgetting. Live Aid was not a Freddie Mercury concert, so not everyone was there to see him specifically and some may not of been his fans. If you watch his performance he had the entire audience eating out of his hand because fan or not they all knew how special it was. I don't think it has been, or even ever will be, matched.

[@bernadetteparnell9500]

I couldn't agree more. Like many, I watched Live Aid because it was for an important cause. All these years later, I remember how Queen lifted the event. They, and Phil Collins, are the only entertainers I remember.. And Bob Geldorf and Midge Ure, of course, as the organisers..

[@helloskinny510]

True. From that concert I only remember Queen, U2 and maybe Ultravox.

[@tedstranix7703]

It's kinda weird because Queen were considered washed-up by 1985 --- but Live Aid had boring performances by supposedly young and refreshing stars like Madonna and U2 but it was the "washouts" Queen that ended up stealing the show

[@VanSulis]

Queen and U2 in the same concert. What a jackpot.

[@Daehawk]

Whats funny about Live Aid was everyone was restricted to a certain sound level. But Queen's sound man got under the stage and ripped it apart and turned Queen louder than anyone else. Was awesome.

Nope. Michael Jackson performing live during Motown's 25th Anniversary show was the greatest performance of all time. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmKamJqXq5Z_qtE

[@TempestPoet]

well just compare the crowds. I think it's obvious. (Not saying Michaels performance wasn't on spot, it was)

[@jennblue2464]

You're kidding me, right? You really think Michael Jackson lip syncing is a better LIVE performance than Queen at Live Aid? I don't think so. No comparison whatsoever. 1. He lip-synced 2. It was a choreographed show and 3. He had 0 interaction with the audience. Meanwhile, Freddie Mercury had nearly 200 thousand people singing and clapping along to "Radio Ga Ga" in sync. He captivated that entire audience like no other. And he captivated another entire audience in America at the same time. Lol. If I wanna hear the recorded version of "Billie Jean", I don't need to watch Michael Jackson lip syncing it.

The best thing about Freddie. Was how he was able to down a shot of vodka, and reach that explosive vocal range that he was famous for while on the verge of death. Some rockers would rather burn out than fade away. Freddie on the other hand wouldn't die without leaving a gigantic mark on music history.

You should watch the These Are The Days of Our Lives video. It would be his last ever music video with Queen in 1991, and right at the end when he dips his head down, he mutters "I still love you" before walking off screen. THAT gives me chills.

[@richcarnaggio1525]

Yes it was such a tragic loss

[@sharona1981]

Freddie and Queen OWNED Live Aid. Sadly, I didn't see this as it happened as I was only 3 years old at the time, but I've seen their performance...and it was just mind blowingly brilliant. There will NEVER be anybody like Freddie again, just like there wasn't before he graced us with his epic presence.

[@sharona1981]

***** I can imagine Zack-it looked like an amazing show.

[@thundercat2000ca]

One thing I've heard about Queen's Live Aid performance was during it backstage Elton John said they outright stole the show.

[@celt67]

Well I AM old enough to have seen it. I was 13 at the time and Queen-obsessed, much to the laughter and bemusement of my classmates at school who were all into the bands of the time....U2...Simple Minds..Dire Straits,...etc.... Come monday morning at school after Live Aid.. Everyone... and I mean EVERYONE,,,was talking about Queen.

I was 32 and watched it on TV, I was not a big Queen fan at the time but did like their music, but when I saw them on live aid I was gob smacked, they stole that show with ease.

I will never, EVER forget seeing Queen at Live Aid (on t.v.) in 1985. I knew then and there, at that moment in time, my generation would make Rock History. To understand the magnitude, one has to understand the sheer number of music legends, being broadcasted simultaneously around the world, for the first time ever, how utterly wonderful you already THOUGHT it was, and then ...... KABOOM!!!!! QUEEN .... and A MILLION EXCLAMATION POINTS EXPLODE! RIP Freddie.

Same here. I was completely mesmerized by Freddie. The way he commanded that audience and even had the Philly auidience clapping along. I still get chills watching that. They were considered to be washed up. Well Freddie proved them all wrong..He owned it! I love and miss the 80s. You can go and not worry if someone is going to blow up or shoot a gun. You could bring in a flag and wave it. No phones. You participated. Such great times. I even bought the Live Aid DVD collection

If you can it's probably a cover...again lol...Queen was the enite package, writers, singers, world class musicians, showmen, and most of all did what they did for the fans. Period. Many ant interview bottom line was " our fans buy aour recors, and as long as they do then F*** everyone else".

I wish you emphasized more on Freddie Mercury's musical efforts during his battle with AIDS. He recorded The Miracle in an early stage, and Innuendo during the later stages. To sing some of the lines he slammed a bottle of vodka to suppress the pain, and he also appeared in multiple video clips, with heavy make-up. And at the very end of it, he recorded enough miscellaneous lines to fill up another album, Made In Heaven. He almost literally went down, singing.

[@mickmick5742]

Innuendo and miracle were the same period.

[@olafcoerper]

True in my view. The Miracle was still 80s, while Innuendo was more mature, clearly, and showing more reflecting pieces, although "Was it all worth it" has a comparable message as "These are the days of our lives" and "The show must go on".

It's how I feel when I listen to Queen. Just a little less lonely. One of the characters I invented for a series of shorts loves Queen just as much as I do. We both pit our first tattoos on the same arm Freddie had that famous studded armband. Id always loved three songs, Don't stop me now, Another one bites the dust and Killer Queen. But it wasn't until I listened to the rest of Queens discography that I realised just how utterly unparalleled their music is.
