    The best live group of all time in my book. Nobody ever left a queen concert feeling cheated. Freddie was hands down the best front man on the planet, may he rest in eternal peace. Thank you for all the great music Freddie.

      I recently stumbled across a video of Queens' performance at Live Aid and it jumped to the top of my best live performance ever list. I've always liked Queen's music and found Freddie Mercury kind of fascinating but that performance really showed me Freddie Mercury the person. And I think he was a beautiful person. A true one of a kind who was going to be himself no matter the consequences. I was just typing another comment on him on another video a little bit ago and I caught myself saying something about his performance while "dying of AIDS" and it suddenly hit me like a flash that Queen's performance and Freddie's ownership of the stage during that performance was so NOT the work of someone "dying of" ANYTHING. He was LIVING WITH AIDS. What a legend. RIP Mr. Mercury.

    • @susanorchard1994
      @susanorchard1994 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      He was actually HIV positive, but wasn't aware of it, from what I've heard. He had had tests done because he suspected he was infected, but he was told he was HIV negative. It wasn't until 1986 when he was having flu like symptoms and intestinal issues companied with nausea, that he had more tests done. It was confirmed he was HIV positive.

    The sound for the show was not that good, but Queen snuck their own sound tech into Wembley, and he adjusted everything for Queen, so when they went on it was a huge difference in sound. Bob Geldof was in the stands doing an interview, and when Queen started to play, he stopped and said "Who the fuck is that?"Queen stole the show! They opened with Bohemian Rhapsody, and then played all the hits.Backstage, McCartney, Elton John, and Geldof, said "Well that's it! Who's going to go on after that?"

    I always use this performance as an example to would-be musicians of how to hold an audience in the palm of your hand. Freddie is in complete control. What makes it even more amazing is that his physician warned him not to take the stage that night due to his medical condition. But Freddie put it all on the line that evening. And he killed...

    Everything considered it's no real surprise that Queen and especially Freddie Mercury stole the show.
    Freddie Mercury excelled at live performances, he was such a sweet man he could easily find that perfect balance between being macho and effeminate.
    Plus the fact that he was such a genuine person, very pure in heart and soul.
    Brian May expressed his concern for Freddie's improvised part immediately after Radio Gaga but I think Freddie was completely aware of what he was doing & had such a feel for the crowd that he intuitively knew that he could get away with it.
    And as Paul Gambucchini stated the crowd really loved it.

      safanup that's just the way Freddie was.... when he performed, he commanded your attention. Was it charisma? Presense? Talent? Hard to pick one because he had all of the above. No one has ever come close to him and they never will. Especially when other musicians, Hall of Fame musicians, etc all say Freddie is the benchmark and best, then it's unlikely anyone will ever steal his throne as King of the Stage. #Legend

      In 1985 Queen really weren't that popular. They were loved in the 70's but started to fade. Of course they are now seen as one of the greatest rock bands of all time but without Live Aid and Wayne's World keeping them relevant they could just as well have been a great band of the 70's and nothing more.

    Interesting history about the call and response, it wasn't there in the beginning. One day, very early in Queen's history, Freddie was very confused about how the audience was singing the songs as he was singing them, and Brian, I think, said "That's because you're a superstar, Fred." And he was like, "What? Why?" And Brian replied someting along the lines of "Have you ever seen a movie that you loved so much that you can repeat every single line said in it?" He's like "Yes." And Brian said "It's the same here. They love you, they love your music, they love your performance." He was blown away, and started to find ways to encourage it from then on out...and started to include the vocal exercises (Day oh, etc).

    The thing that makes it even more amazing when you think about it. This wasn't a Queen show this was a multi-band event, probably half the people in that crowd couldn't have cared less about seeing Queen when they got there and for Queen to win them over and get the overwhelming response they got REALLY shows how great they were. They weren't even given that great a spot they were on like midday just remarkable

    The day I became a big fan of Dire Straits. But I was already fan of Queen. I miss the both of them. Although Mark Knopfler still gives concerts and play a few songs from the Dire Straits time. It is just not the same.
    Lots of people say that the 80ies were the worst years for the music.
    Perhaps I do not agree because the eighties were the best time of my life.
    But look at the bands and singers. Especially the British. Great liveperformers.
    If they want to give a tribute to David Bowie and George Michael, who is able to do that? I can only think of Maroon 5 and Coldplay.

    Their performance really made it obvious, much to the annoyance of many other performers, that Queen was musically stronger than the others by a very wide margin.

  • @MsNooneinparticular

    Freddie was right: All we hear (now) is Radio Ca-Ca. Don't think he'd have enjoyed what popular music has become, as most of us don't. I always wondered what those people at Live Aid did if they had to pee? So many people!

    I was at Wembly with my missus in 1985 for that gig. Everyone else played "Three of your/our favourite tracks". Queen did a 25 minute show, and stole it completely. IMHO, of course - others will have differing opinions, and that's OK. Yer man had that crowd wrapped around his finger, and the crowd responded appropriately. BTW, there are other YT vids of this with far better sound quality than this clip...
