Queen - Live Aid (July 10th, 1985) [Definitive Rehearsal]

- Here I present to you the most definitive edit of Queen's rehearsal for Live Aid. This video features some unseen clips from both the interview segment and a different run-through of songs.
Many thanks to Chief Mouse for remastering the official copy and Sikke's tape copy.
The video begins with the interview segment with the whole band sitting in the Shaw Theatre, this features some unseen clips which were edited out of official releases (thanks to Sikke for the footage).
Now onto the actual rehearsal footage, on the original July 1985 report and then official QPL copies after, it was edited to make the rehearsal look like a multi-camera shoot. In reality, it was a single camera that recorded possibly 2-3 different takes and then used the best of them to create 1 "multi-camera shoot". So I have made this video as to how it was originally shot, again thanks to Sikke for proving a tape without this editing.
So in this video, we have the rehearsal run-through that we all know and love, Bohemian Rhapsody, Radio Ga Ga and some of Hammer To Fall, thanks to Sikke again for the extra although damaged footage.
After the Hammer To Fall footage ends, we have very short clips of the different takes of Bohemian Rhapsody, and an almost full take of a 2nd Radio Ga Ga performance. These short clips come from the original July 1985 broadcast and where again, edited to make it look like multi-camera.

“You’re known for the spectacle of your shows, the backdrops & lights. Will be it be difficult to pull it off on such a bare stage?”
Brian: “Well It all comes down to whether or not you can play really.”
Freddie: “hold my beer.”
I love the confidence on Brian's face as he says that line.
even the rehersal is a great performance
I remember this broadcast - I think it was a segment on London news. I figured they would be very good on the day of Live Aid, and of course they were the absolute best. Video of the performance was not available for some years, as I recall.
It’s July 11 2021, I can’t belive this rehearsal was 36 years ago. I love queen 💙
*Freddie:* 2:20 - 2:49 about Is This The World We Created
*Interviewer:* 2:29 "tell me more about it"
*Freddie:* 3:00 to Brian "oh, you tell them"

3:55 Brian and Roger THE MERCH PLUGGGG
1:35 I love Deacy's smile so much!

it's really cool to see them making a interview that actually talk about their music and, in this case, their preparation for the show
Freddie, Roger, Brian, John = Queen 💛💛💛💛 😢😢
March 2022 and I was working in this theatre today. Just had to have a look at the rehearsal footage. Still amazing.
LEGEND NEVER DIE
Gorgeous! Thank you for posting this!
Fantastic!
Wow! This is wonderful! Thanks so much from Germany :-)
Oh, this is GREAT! Never seen this before - I saw the interview but not the rehearsal!!!
Amazing!!!! Thank you for posting!!!
Class act ! Spending the time to rehearse. True talent all around!
It's great. I haven't seen this complete version before
It’s crazy that Queen still decided to remaster the footage for their series or just had a better quality hidden from us.
ALWAYS PERFECT 👌
Grazie 🙏🏻
The psychedelic effect, 12:43, fascinates me! Freddie is in perfect physical-vocal shape!
👑☀️🎹🎶👏🤗🎖️
QueeN Forever.
Thank you very Much!.!.!
Actually he was told NOT to sing by his doctor, because he was not 100%. This stands to so show how awesome Freddy Mercury was, even more so knowing this. He's the greatest for many reasons and each of them as well. Queen is out of his world. ❤️
Luv them ForEver!
Os melhores, queen forever❤
Am I the only one that thinks Freddie’s Live Aid rehearsal outfit is almost as iconic as his outfit from the actual concert?
Its more iconic imo
Yesss they also have this one in the movie
@@adonaiyah2196 That's just not true.
@@MilesAway why not
@@adonaiyah2196 The Live Aid outfit was seen by billions live in 1985, billions more for the Bohemian Rhapsody promotion material and movie, and it's generally one of the outfits you think of when you think of Freddie Mercury. The rehearsal outfit is really only seen for 1 short ass scene in BoRhap and a pretty rare rehearsal tape that only a couple thousand have only tracked down.
It's just logically less iconic than Live Aid.
No egos involved at all 4:00 in 😂🥰
Freddie deserved a huge ego after his performance
Он снова здесь.....вот он наш обаяшка...наш ФРЕДДИ...❤💖❤💖✌✌
13:02 YEAAAAHHHH 💪🏻
Thanks for the upload, hope you’d be able to share isolated FLAC audio of the rehearsal (from the best sounding sources that is) either here or in QZ
Brian’s short shorts
nice
Idk but this BohRap is so adictive, really good, this is Queen!
❤❤❤❤
Я смотрю это видео 9 октября 2021 года. Queen в моем сердце 💓
Poteva avere tutte le donne del 🌍 mondo, con le sue bellezze, a 360 gradi, in tutto e per tutto, ma la sfortuna lo ha perseguitato. Freddie, Freddie, PERCHÉ’! PERCHÉ’! NON SEI CON NOI!🌹♥️
In the actual concert freddie didn't say build your muscles as your body decades in Hammer to fall, I was just thinking he didn't sing for a vocal break, but in this he sings it, and in the concert you can see his lips moving with his mic down, so he might of just forgotten to bring his mic up, random topic I just wanted to see if anyone knew.
Brian,s legs
Great even in practice. Freddie doesn't really know how to go halfway. 7:01 It always makes me said because of how he passed.
*--* Freddie sold out Wembley 3 times and the last time he was dead..
quitame la respiración that’s because he’s bad ass
That just shows how great he is
They sold out wembley multiple times
4 times since they did 2 shows at Wembley in 1986.
@@MilesAway They also played there in 1980 and some other years
I was *literally* just watching the old video like 5 minutes ago lol
I never realized how accurate Bohemian Rhapsody(film) was in regards to this rehearsal. I thought the scene in the film was more like the type of thing where they made some generic rehearsal before Live Aid. But I just saw this video and they’re wearing the same clothes in the scene in the film as they are here..
Forgive me if I’m merely saying something everyone else already knew. But I thought that was pretty cool.
Borap is so goddamn epic.The second carry on is DIVINE.
quuen es lo mas grande del planete que vanda que fue y es ojala que algunas entrevistas ocosas de quuen lo traduscan al espsñol wue no se entiende nsaslufos desde argengina los quiere ale
Rehearsal Starts At 5:42
Grande Freddie Mercury
молодцы!
I wish John would just shut up for once and let the others speak.
What do you mean???
@@DEAD.IM.DEAD07 it's called a joke sweetheart.
@@DEAD.IM.DEAD07 Poor Kay.
@@DEAD.IM.DEAD07 John didnt speak once durrint the interview. So it was sarcasm
@@Torpedomtb I realized that a while ago lol, I’m sorry
It's Brian's turn to show chest hair?!
10:19 we all know what we him to zoom in on
Classic rock fans have to get used to watching their favs in 3 pixels
I'd rather watch Queen in 3 pixels, than watch the crap that passes for music these days in HD
@@KeithJones1984 me too 👍👑
I know man
its july 10 2022 37 years
Quando l'amicizia ti rende uguale anche nelle risposte più banali
First)
Interesting if they have played rock section, would Freddie have hit C5?
With his his throat problem being advised not to play he probably would’ve played it safe but we will never know
Mr Farenheit his throat problem didn’t stop him from WATC C5
Роман Зарума fair enough so maybe but he did have a couple of flubs near the end of the WATC but again we will never know
Probably yes, since he hit in we are the champions.
@@rohanr.9714 funny, but he never hit Die C5 when he hit C5 in We are the champions)))
12:44 rip camera
wish they didnt make the cuts towards the end cutting the songs and transitions..
How come they never did Under Pressure, David Bowie was a performer on the day too.
it's funny how john is dressed in what freddie wore in the actual live aid
5:44
Are they actually rehearsing at Wembley? The stage design looks a little different, and it’s closed off.
5:12 as she states in the video, the building she goes into is where Queen is rehearsing. It's not Wembley Stadium.
The piano sounds different than normal.
Kind of digital to me
@@patricksommer3971 yep, probably cheaper electric piano of some sort
It’s a Yamaha CP80 - a small grand piano with actual strings amplified by a large pickup built within the piano. Weighs a lot less than an actual grand and can be moved in two relatively small flightcases. A lot of bands used these live in that era, they were a lot more reliable in transport than their acoustic counterparts.
the sound preset coming from the piano is called electric grand.
Great rehearsal...Freddie looks soooo happy here...he had met his partner, Jim Hutton by then..he’s wearing a wedding ring on his right hand, just likeJim did..they were so lucky to have met one another..and Jim stayed with Freddie until he died...and really looked after him 🤩
5:13 That lady screams 80’s mom wow!
Why is the camera man recording like he is shooting a prank video and has to hide the camera
It was a single camera shoot, more or less taped to be B-roll footage.
Just like at Live Aid....apparently Freddie is the only member important.... camera glued to him. Frustrating.
Brian proper dropped a bollock at the end there. Fred didn't look happy! Lovely stuff.
roger had... facial hair?
Fred is actually in better shape than live aid here
This is just before Live Aid so your comment doesn’t make sense 🤔
Wow, he and Michael Jackson are totally two different persons. Fred is more of a comedian, while Jack is just the quiet guy ya know, also Freddie actually gives his best for the rehearsal while Michael barely tries but still nails the performance.
Michael wasn't even at Live Aid ffs.
666th like
6:00 Is John wearing Freddie's outfit from the actual Live Aid concert?
I don't think so, that would be weird.
6:07 there's some sort of pocket or patch, so no.
@@MilesAway Oh didn't notice that, I guess John isn't wearing Freddie's outfit after all :(
I’m sure at this stage in their career they could afford their own clothes. 😀
I think Freddie told his very closest friends and sister about his aids diagnosis in 1987. He told Brian, Roger and John in 1989.
"No he's right, stadiums don't have a roof"
Worst camera man in history
Brian made a lot of mistakes
5:29 gosh her accent sounds so annoying!
That accent is british, and Queen was from UK, so Freddie may have spoke with the same accent.
Freddie was Indian/English :/
13:15 This the scene that Freddy announced that he have AIDS so that they cutted it.
in reality he told the rest of the band 5 months later.
Joseph Walsh no in 1989
Daan Me Myself And i bruh. he never told a single soul since 1991
That was a fictional scene from the movie called "Bohemian Rhapsody". That was made up for the movie.
He announced to the band in the start of 1987
