Rock in peace Freddie you will never being forgotten. ❤️🙏💯🇮🇹🇧🇪🇪🇺
Freddie wasn't just a singer, he was an entertainer.
Freddie Mercury is the greatest frontman to ever grace the stage, in my humble opinion of course 😊
"I won't be a rock star.I'll be a fucking legend"...Words to that effect.🎼👌🎹
Oh yeah! ❤😊❤😊… He is a legend, a myth…
Freddie is the best performer in the world literally
Your reaction was wonderful..I was at that concert and Freddie totally smashed it 👊 sending you love from London 🇬🇧 ❤
These guys were consummate pros. They knew exactly what they were doing and Freddie rides that live line as good as anyone, ever. Those audience call back songs were written just for that purpose. Many bands did this, but Queen made #1 records out of them.
Absolutely phenomenal band one of the greatest bands ever, LiveAid at Wembley Stadium London concert to raise funds for a terrible famine in Ethiopia 🇪🇹 Africa, LiveAid twinned with a concert in Philadelphia USA 🇺🇸, 92 thousand crowd in Philadelphia, 72 thousand crowd in Wembley London,this was the first time in history that a event like this has ever happened,both concerts were televised around the world watched by 2 billion people,top artists from around the world performed and each artist had a 20 minute slot to perform, Queen came on stage and with their phenomenal flamboyant performance stole the show they were the best performers on the day, Freddie Mercury had the crowds in the palm of his hand,I actually attended LiveAid in 1985 and also another concert at Wembley Stadium in 1986 , and later in 1986 attended a Queen concert in Knebworth Park United Kingdom 🇬🇧 the crowd was estimated to be 200, 000 fans, knebworth was Freddie’s very last live performance ever, but Freddie carried on writing and performing in the studio right until he passed away in 1991 of AIDS related issues, he is was the greatest vocalist and performer ever and is surely missed, great reaction thanks 🙏
Freddie was a True showman, I was only 8 but recall watching this on TV, Queen are all time favourites of mine, Freddie had 70,000 literally in the palm of his hands, worth remembering he was unwell with a throat infection this day too. Truly the greatest in my opinion.
Hoooo my God Great voice
Mercury , Messenger of the gods
It wasn’t only Queen who realized they had been sensational. Paul Gambaccini, who was part of the BBC broadcasting team at Live Aid, recalled the awe among other superstar musicians watching backstage. “Everybody realized that Queen was stealing the show,” said Gambaccini. These were the very words Elton John uttered when he rushed into Mercury’s trailer after the set. “You bastards, you stole the show,” joked the charismatic star.
“Queen smoked ’em. They just took everybody. They walked away being the greatest band you’d ever seen in your life, and it was unbelievable,” said Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters. “And that’s what made the band so great; that’s why they should be recognized as one of the greatest rock bands of all time, because they could connect with an audience.”
When I'm sad this makes my day Freddie ❤❤🎉🎉😢😢
Maybe I misunderstood what you said, but Queen is the band, Freddie Mercury is the singer. Or as he preferred to call himself, the performer.
loved Queen I have listened to them from the early 1970's Brilliant
Love your reaction to such a brilliant band, concert and cause.
It was also my 20th birthday 🎉
Hey Honey,
Thank you for the reaction…
FYI tho, that was NOT how the performance actually ended! (I’m sorry to say, you unfortunately reacted to the one-and-only, incredibly FRUSTRATING copy of the Queen Live Aid video circulating on TH-cam which is “corrupted”/INCOMPLETE… That’s why it CUT OFF right in the middle of Fred singing.)
SO… Here’s a link to the COMPLETE last song “We Are The Champions”, all the way to the end of the performance from the official Live Aid channel:

And, if anyone wants it, here’s a link to a COMPLETE, REMASTERED copy of the Queen Live Aid set from Remastered Memories channel:

Just so you know Freddie's doctor told him not to do this show because he had an infection that was affecting his voice but he was not going to let his fans down and ended up giving one of the best performance ever.
Great
spirit
Live Aid was held simultaneously in London, 72,000 people, in Philadelphia, 89,484 people. One of the largest satellite link-ups & television broadcasts of all time;estimated audience of 1.9 billion,150 nations,watched live broadcast, 40% of the world population
Freddie Mercury was the ultimate performer.❤
The world is a sadder place without Freddie. May the world never forget him.
Thank goodness we get to see this greatness today.
Very few British don't know this song bohemian rapsody last week I was on a coach of army cadets aged between 12 and 18 years old and we all started to sing this we didn't even have any accompaniment.
Mesmerizing Freddie and Queen❣️🎶👑
If you liked that, watch Freddie and Brian perform Is This The World We Created from the same show.
Soy español no entiendo inglés pero Freddy ha sido mi ídolo, eres muy guapa
Los viejos rockeros , el poco ingles que sabemos fue gracias a Queen , Deep Purple , Pink Floyd etc. etc. Muchos grandes grupos de los 70s y los 80s
Freddie dreamed big, played hard and performed like the legend he is, but I don't think even Freddie knew just how much of a "Great Occasion " this 20 minutes would become. Love your enthusiasm and your hair is gorgeous! ❤🌈👑
Great video I watched that whole 24 hours live concert I will never forget it best ever
You got to check out DAMISH SOS SONG I WANT TO SEE YOU CRY AGAIN 😊
Freddie was king of anything he tried.
Your actual enjoyment and love of music is infectious, and that smile, wow
Magnificent!! One of the best bands ever!! 😅
The best!
💯
Never will there be a front man that comes close to Freddie. I guess that’s partly to do with the direction music has gone, but he himself had everything

This is widely recognised as the best LIVE performance in rock history.
90 minutes, prior U2 were contenters for same accolade.
Live Aid was held simultaneously at Wembley Stadium in London, attended by about 72,000 people, and John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia, attended by 89,484 people. one-third of the global population tuning into a TV broadcast at the same time. That's what happened on July 13, 1985, when 1.9 billion people watched musicians perform in London and Philadelphia to raise money for famine-stricken Ethiopians.
Amazing is not a big enough word....😍 Thank you!
Loved your reaction...thank you! Good journey :) Peace!
Singer of songs..lover of life. Nobody will be like Freddie Mercury ever again. ❤😢❤
Freddie MERCURY oui !! Very good with Queen . I know him since a long time ( cause i'm your grand'father ... ) . Je plaisante bien sur dear miss . Thank you for this from France . 👍👍👍
QUEEN is the name of the band.
Yea
Crazy little thing called love was written as a tribute to the king of rock himself
They had loads of singers and groups at Live Aid but Queen are the ones that stood out. Freddie was told by a doctor not to perform because he had a bad throat. However, he did and Queen smashed it. Each act was given a time slot and if they went over that time they would be cut off. However, Queen sang the most songs and finished on time.
Freddie Mercury was born Farrokh Bulsara to British Indian parents on the island of Zanzibar. He was known as 'Fred' rather than Farrokh even before the family came to London, and signed himself as Fred Bulsara on letters until 1970, when he changed his name to Mercury.
JOSEPH LOWERY WILL BUY YOU VERY MUCH COFFEE.
I'll never forget watching Queen at live at Live Aid 85. I was somewhere in the middle of all the people in front of that black soundstage. I still have my Live Aid Ticket. Laminated now and locked up in my safe.
Freddie was suffering with a throat infection that day. The backstage doctors advised him not to perform.
I remember watching this on TV
They raised millions from around the world to aid people in Africa, this concert was a huge worldwide deal
You think that crowd was big, that was 72,000 people, Queen played to 400,000 at Knebworth at the end of the Magic tour.
You will not beat any other performance ever 😊
I love your taste in music,and you are so beautiful ❤
I'm surprised you didn't do this before, it really shows why Freddie was known as the greatest showman. Great reaction❤❤
The Ultimate Showman, R.I.P. Freddie... He actually had Aids and Bronchitis, his doctor suggested he not do this show,He Insisted!!!
I was PRIVILEGED to be there ... the video doesn't do the true atmosphere justice, but I still enjoyed this reprise at 83 years old :
Must have been some atmosphere. I remember seeing this on the tv, but was too young to take much notice. Only just started to really listen to Queen’s music and just watched this for the first time. I don’t think we’ll see anything like this nowadays.
Freddie God music makes me chills when he just walks on the stage that what freddie does to people get imotional when you just listen to him best performance ever I 've seen it 50 times and everytime I look at this as if was the first time you cannot stay and listen it makes you sing dance every thing out of this word queen the best band ever walked o this planet do more queen you will love it ❤
The greatest performance you will ever see
Not only was this a live concert in England, it was broadcast live to 1.9 Billion people across 150 nations. Queen does not disappoint! Great reaction, thanks!
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🇧🇷
Best Singer and Performer for ever ❤
Starr looking great, thanks marciebulsaraorcutt8000 for linking the righteous ending to a great performance.
I was a kid in the UK when I saw this live on TV. It was put on to save the starving in Africa during a famine at the time. I truly believe Freddy felt their pain and spoke to the people about it. I believe that's why his performance was so good. after this performance donations poured in. It was a cry to help, brilliantly done. 🙂
for nearly 30 minutes Freddie and Queen held millions of people in their hands and for that time they didnt hate or hurt they just enjoyed what is considered the greatest concert of all time
Ut-Oh, this looks like this might be the video that cuts off at the end, I hope its not, you should be able to see it all as it actually happened. Thank you for a great reaction. AWWW, it was the one. 😢
20 minutes that changed Rock and Roll.... having seen them at both Nassau Colliseum and Madison Square Garden , I have to say they were the greatest shows I ever saw... Live Aid in Philly was #2
I recommend the DVD titled Queen/ Live at the Hollywood Bowl.....
Sorry, just found you; so, I’m late to the Comment Section! I’m a 66 y/o Glamma. You seem to enjoy the background of things. And, I’m a Trivia sponge, so here goes: FUN FACTS FIRST: The kisses are for his Mom who was watching him on Television.
MATTER OF FACTS: They had just completed a Tour a month b4. So, they went & rented a Stadium to practice the performance. He ended up with a Throat Infection & the Doctor highly recommended he not do it bc he might lose his musical ability. He said no! Can you tell he had a severe throat infection? Most people think he was drinking booze from the cups bc on the piano. He’s drinking Honey & Tea. His command of the Audience was more than coincidence it was miraculous. Considering there were so many people there the sound was getting absorbed through them. So the people @ the back we’re following his hand gestures bc the actual sound hadn’t even reached them b4 the next sound was coming @ them. Go back & watch what his hands are doing & what the Audience is doing. NEXT: Radio Gaga is celebrating Radio bc M-TV is just getting started. LADY GAGA was a huge Freddie Fam growing up, so That was where she came up with HER STAGE NAME! You have to listen to the words to really understand the meaning. Most of us didn’t have a clue what a Band looked like unless we saw them in Person!
NEXT-MICROPHONE. At sometime along the way a Microphone Stand broke, so that was the only spilt second solution they could come up with. He realized the freedom he had to move, dance, & engage the Audience.
NEXT MICHAEL JACKSON & ELVIS CONNECTION on Song THIS THING CALLED LOVE: It was written as his homage to Elvis-Freddie was a big fan. But, he just wasn’t sure about the song bc he didn’t want to taint Elvis. SO, he played it for Michael J. (Yes, they were friends!). And Michael told him he HAD TO, he said “Freddie, you have to”! (Can’t you just see that!?).
NEXT FREDDIE’s VOICE. HE HAD 4 extra teeth so that’s the reason he had such an overbite. He had the ability to naturally flow from Octave to Octave. It was a natural progression, for him.
SCIENTIFICALLY: Test were done on his Voice. He was able to use his Throat muscles on either side of his vocal cords. Which is normally seen in some Opera Singers. His Vocal Range was from Low Bass F, to High Soprano F! They were extremely surprised to find out that he could go from about 92Hz to 784Hz, effortlessly! See ACTUAL REPORT BELOW:
nyone who has listened to a Queen track knows that Freddie has a unique ability that still has not been truly replicated since. His ability to blend highs, lows and mid range notes cohesively and with immense precision. This skill was due to the fact that Freddie was able to create faster vibrato and harmonics than any other singer at the time. Not only this, he was able to shift through registers effortlessly. Although he naturally held a baritone voice, he primarily sang as a tenor and of course had no problem then shifting into soprano parts. One study on Freddie’s vocal range even confirmed that he was able to vary from about 92.2 Hz to 784 Hz, meaning he was reliably able to hit notes from the booming low of F#2 to the high pitch G5 - that covers a full three octaves!
LEAD GUITARIST: Brian May, is playing on a Guitar he & his Father made. When he first starting to learn they were too poor to afford a high end guitar. So, they just made one! They made out of an old cabinet his mother was going to throw awayThe included some “extras” that would normally have to be separate instruments to get all those features (think Concerts when you see guitarist changing Guitars depending on the Song….that’s why he didn’t)!
I’m sorry to take up your Valuable Time, and I thank you. You need anymore Trivia I’m your G’Ma go to. My Brain is full, especially with music!
LAST INTERESTING INFO: When he is waving his arm it is to tell the cameramen which way he is going bc he’s moving around so much. When he kicks his legs backwards that is getting over all the cables, that are on the Stage. TV Cameras were not cordless back in the day!! And, “We Will Rock You”, is actually a Prelude to “We Are The Champions”. (It is really all 1 Song!)

this magnificent level of crowd engagement is impossible now due to cell phones.
Best performance ever! I love your reaction! Talking about Live Aid, you should check U2's performance at Live Aid also, especially when they perform their song called "Bad". Also so amazing! 🙂
Feel the Love. ❤, I promise you, in this crazy ass old World ..it ..is.. There!
I often wonder if anyone of the 80,000 people inside Wembley Stadium really gaged and understood that they were witnessing what is pretty UNIVERSALLY acknowledged and agreed the greatest ever live performance in the entire history of Rock and Roll.
By the same token my above question/statement could easily said about any one of the 2 billion+ people watching the event being televised live. I will say that I think nothing was lost on Freddie Mercury because you end up catching him a few times throughout Queen's set when he's completely out of breath and looking out deep into the crowd and I get the feeling he kind of knew that this performance was going to go down in history.
You are beautiful 😍
Thank you!!
Where you from ? I m in Montreal, Quebec, Canada :)@@starrlarh
Most of these copies on TH-cam don't have the official Live Aid finale song. The organizers had Freddie and Brian come on stage at the end of the concert and sing one of the best songs you hardly ever hear them sing, "Is This The World We Created". Try to find it on TH-cam. I bought the dvd of their concert in Montreal, and Queen at Live Aid is at the end of the dvd, including the show finale.
All the way from Glasgow Scotland thank you
During this time he was struggling with his vocals due to complications he had due to having AIDS.
I wish to God TH-cam would take this blasted version down and leave reactors with the proper, full version! Not your fault, my dear, but damn, it's so frustrating when the end is cut off like that!
This is Queen, not Freddie. Freddie solo wasn't really very good.
best reactor to queen by far💜blessings from Spain
Freddie was is and always will be the GOAT and thats me subscribed now because your channel and your reactions are boss 👌
Queen, Rock in Rio 1985, best show ever.
This 20 minutes at live aid is a top 10 in historical music moments that queen created…. a great milestone… I agee with other comments freddie was one of the best front men… and his singing was back in the day of LIVE music without all the modern technology… and he sounds better the most all the current singers with that tech behind there mic...
For 22 minutes that day England was ruled by a different Queen
Crowd is so important. I totally get you. 100%
Stopping it to talk while Freddie is doing his vocal warm up with the crowd is the same as stopping to talk in the middle of a guitar solo. Frowned upon by real music lovers, a massive no no for reactors !
I woke up at 4 am that morning to watch live from my home in California USA when I was 12. 😊 I watch these so I can see how a,aging it is to hear and see these songs for the first time.
bellissima reaction amo i queen!!!!!!!!!!😍😍😍😍😍
I love your Black Bauty on the old Tooty. But you loose me my good man when you just made your channel 2 weeks ago. But don't be shy, hit me up Bo
Freddie is the greatest performer the world has ever seen
❤
Shout out to the videographer! Thank you
Freddie WASN'T Queen!!!
i Love this Video from Queen
What happened at the end? Why was it cut short??
He had definite sex appeal
one kiss to Italy ciao RIK
Queen hat etwa 200 Songs geschrieben & da haben sie noch sehr viel zu hören!
i get emotional too when i watch freddie doing this performace. his energy, his heart and charisma pours out of him so beautifully, it makes me cry; he was ill the day he performed. i never took voice in school so i can't tell he is ill! and i have seen comments that say you can tell he was ill; but i can't! and i have a big Fine arts background. Freddy was a god! and sadly we lost him not too long after this concert very very sadly. We all misssss this GOD!!!
Not alot of people who watch it today realize how amazing queen sounded at this time; they weren't really touring together and were not doing well together as band mates. everyone was clapping and going nuts when he started radio GA GA! i always cry when he sings it; i feel him soso much. i was little and remember watching it on tv with my folks. elton john ran to freddie hugging them when they finished this set during the day (they did stuff at night but not famous stuff). elton was screaming how the phones were lit up like nuts to collect $ for the live aid charity! and how much they stole the show!
One of the stories is that Elton acted pissed off after queen and they were like why are you mad and he said how the hell can anyone follow that performance.
I was 9 and watched what is now a legendary performance for ages .. soo many musical acts and Queen stoled the show 💯❤️🙏✌️🤘
May i say what a beautiful young lady you are.
I didnt get to see this on tv as i was giving birth to my son but had the video of it.
As said abovehe did this against doctors orders, this was the first glimpse f the bravery he geld ,that would prove to be essential for his fight against aids which would take him 6 years later.
May i suggest you source you videos from the Queen official channel,it has the best quality of all things Queen . Xx
There can be the only one Freddie Mercury.....we are all so lost without him...
starr larh,you are one of the beautiful people Freddie said were here tonight, that means aii of you.
We are the CHAMPIONS - Queen - The greatest ever.
Bless your heart for a wonderful reaction.
