      Queen's Live Aid set is one of the Top 10 rock performances of all time, hands down. I've never seen someone command a crowd of 72,000 people like Freddie Mercury did -- the man could have started his own religion that day. The spontaneous, in-sync clapping during Radio Gaga is breathtaking.

    This song was written by the band's bassist John Deacon, unsurprising when you consider the amazing bassline. Such a fabulous song, always used for sports events!
    You should definitely react to 'Barcelona' by Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballé. Freddie wrote the song at her request, she wanted a song about her hometown, and he thought she had the most beautiful voice in the world. It's amazing and I think you'd both absolutely love it. It's stunning!!

      John Deacon is an electronics genius who was studying electrical engineering prior Queen becoming famous. John built custom amplifier for Brian May. It called "Deacy Amp".
      Even electronics company manufactured these amps one time.
      Since Freddie died, John joined few reunions. Now, he is fully retired. But John still an equal say in band's activities because when all 4 started out, each one have a voice in band's business. John and I think estate of Freddie sued Brian and Roger for using Queen while they have singer, Adam Lambert. All parties settled.
      Now, it is Queen + Adam Lambert.
      I think that John sued them because they betrayed Freddie's legacy. Freddie was driving Force making Queen well known.

    A film came out a couple of years ago called “Bohemian Rhapsody “. It was a huge hit. It won 4 Academy Awards including Best Actor for Rami Malek who played Freddie Mercury. It was also nominated for Best Picture. It was a film made for Queen fans not film critics. The filmmakers definitely took some liberties regarding timelines of certain events but, at the end of the day it grossed $280 million at the domestic box office making it the number six highest grossing film of 2018. It is also the highest grossing biopic film and musical biopic film of all time.

    Before the Internet was invented, the LIVE AID CONCERTS from LONDON & PHILADELPHIA were Broadcast around the 🌎 "VIA SATELLITE", with 100s of Millions of viewers tuning in from around the world for 24 HOURS!
    If there had been a roof on top of Wembley, QUEEN would have BLOWN THE LID off the Place!
    Never had a Stage performer captured a worldwide Audience like Freddie did that day!

On another video Amber was talking about how a lot of the older music seemed to mean more than some more recent music.

    Queen had 4 songwriters in the band... so each member brought a diverse element into their music.
    This track was written by bassist John Deacon... it became a global #1 single in 1980. It also marked a change for Queen in a pop direction - in the 70's, they refused to use synthesizers in their records.
    This album 'The Game' used synthesizers.
    So in subsequent Queen records, they went more pop... and as a result, their US popularity fell, even as they were superstars worldwide...

    Steve walks warily down the street
    With his brim pulled way down low
    Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet
