To be fair, they always let the song play in full. They have a pre-show mix tape that plays in its entirety before the band comes out. Bohemian Rhapsody has been on that mix for decades. Blitzkrieg Bop too.
Worth remembering this ISN'T a crowd that have come to see Queen. This is what all Brits can do. and no we couldn't sing the whole national anthem like this nor would we want to.
@@sarablack2547 That was the first time... (My daughter was there so she told me afterwards all about it) But at other concerts since then, the crowds have continued to sing Bohemian Rhapsody and bond as this crowd did. Whilst the events continue to occur, Freddie will live on...and I think he would've loved it. As Jess said, the technology we now have, and did even then, can be renewed, kept going and thus Freddie's spirit will never die. It gives a warm glow and a tear to the eye but that glow. It's indescribable!!❤🎵🖖
Sorry... just to add, as we are British, the applause would have been for a great song, and for Freddie writing it. We dont usually applaud ourselves, thanks again you two😁
I was in the crowd on this day. Green Day started to play it for when they were planning to walk on the stage. But, they didn't come out until it was finished because of what happened 😊
I was there with my cousin - the eve of my 50th - glad you liked our duet (with 64,998 backing singers). Green Day always play Bohemian Rhapsody before they come on - they're fans, and it warms the crowd up...over here anyway...the crowd sang along to Green Day for the next 2 and a half hours
I was there it was amazing, green day actually waited until we had sang it all and by the end so many people were hugging and had tears, it was beautiful. All our school assemblies really were for a reason ❤❤
It very nearly did to me to. It was emotional and very touching. What an atmosphere that must have been. I’ve never seen this so thanks to those who suggested it and a great reaction guys. I hope you got my link for ACDC at Riverplate.
You guys have to watch Queens' whole set at Live Aid. At one point, Freddy takes complete control of the entire crowd. It feels a lot like this, but Freddy is present. ❤️
I live near where Freddie grew up, and I had a paper route that included his parents' house. The day the newspapers reported his passing, I refused to deliver to their house, reasoning "they already know and there's nothing else important to them in the news than that"
I'm 71 and one of my biggest regrets is never seeing Freddie, Brian, John and Roger perform live. I watched Live Aid on tv and followed everything I could but, like Jess said, having technology that allows EVERY future generation to hear and see them will keep them all alive forever.
This song is 49 years old now I remember back in 1975 when it first came out. My children grew up listening to Queen, now my grandchildren are growing up listening to Queen. People from all around the world, that don't even speak English can sing this song perfectly. In a hundred years people will still be singing Bohemian Rhapsody and remember Freddie Mercury and the incredible gift of music he left behind . The world was a better place with him in it 👑
That many people singing and you can still understand every word. This is not a few people singing and others joining in randomly. That is part of the beauty
Glad you pointed out the angle with the sky, it almost looks like Freddie is there in spirit as well as how they are singing the instrumentals. Gotta love it!
That's not the sun peeking out through the clouds in the back. That's Freddy shining his light down on them while watching with pride and a tear in his eye.
Bohemian Rhapsody is almost an alternative National Anthem throughout the UK. Many "youngsters" who were not even born when Queen were performing can sing every line of the song flawlessly, and frequently do at many major events. All it essentially takes is for the music to start in the UK and you will often get one or two people, to a huge crowd at a concert or sporting venue singing the whole song with gusto and immense pride. Freddy is beloved, and Queen are a national treasure. You should look for other venues where the crowd sings along to Bohemian Rhapsody. I'm sure you will find quite a few :) Great reaction, and thank you!!
My eldest daughter was there, singing too on that very day... She told me about it when she came home and I'm so glad Green Day published this video. Kudos to Green Day indeed. 🇺🇲🎵❤🏴🎧🎸🎵🇬🇧🙂♥️🖖
In the UK it is a rule that every one knows every word of Bohemian Rhapsody no matter what your age (IT'S THE LAW). Unborn babies Learn the song in the womb and as we know the 1st word babies say is "MAMA" proving the fact they learn the song in the womb..
I’ve literally done this twice at a GreenDay concert in the UK they play it every time before they come on and sing American Idiot first. I love GreenDay and Queen. Bellahouston park in 22 Glasgow. And this year at old Trafford Manchester. I’d totally forgotten about it. Thanks for the memories.
I see the crosses being bathed in golden sunlight and the light also soaking the crowd, I can also imagine Freddie turning to the others in Heaven and saying "Look darlings...... this is my legacy".
The cheering at the end is the joy of the amazing shared experience with strangers and friends. Happens a lot after we sing together but maybe it’s just a British thing. In no way were they cheering themselves.
Freddie is gone, but his music will continue to be heard in every corner of the world. He is not with us, but he will not be lost in our thoughts and hearts. Because TRUE LEGEND IS IMMORTAL❤👑👑👑👑❤
That was one of the best concerts i've ever been to. I was right at the front of that crowd and the atmosphere was incredible! So glad Green Day filmed it and put it online.
I've seen this so many times and never tire of it, just brilliant. As others have said we learn this from an early age in the UK, my dad was a huge Queen fan. If you look at the cloud, top left at the beginning, it kind of looks like Freddie looking down at everyone.
80,000 people ( originally listed as 65,000) listening to canned music waiting for green day concert to start, the Bohemian Rhapsody came on for the waiting crowd. Everyone sang together perfectly. Just another song on a recording but it was pure love and memory. Other Green Day concerts with smaller numbers repeated many times.
When Freddie left us in '91 he left a hole in the Fandom. Somehow they got it in their heads that if enough people sang Bohemian Rhapsody that Freddie will return to us.
Classic Green Day video and I have watched it many times. Congrats on your presentation. We were able to see most of the crowd and you were very cleverly seated in the front row. Most reactors put themselves foremost and relegate the artist to a small part of the screen. Well done. Thank you.
Just wonderful ❤Greenday put Bohemian Rhapsody on before the concert they do this at a lot of their concerts. This is by far the best one on UA-cam. Greenday recorded this one i would think being as you can see the stage from behind.
I must have been under a rock! This is the first time I've seen this. WOW, that was awesome,the community feel good factor must have been of the charts,simply awesome and emotional. Thankyou both for a great reaction and for sharing with us✌️🙏
@brigidsingleton1596 🤣I'm 52 and no offence taken,I laughed when I read it.I'm glad I've seen it now, it was spectacular. Now I shall skateboard down to the shops to get some sweets🤣👍
WOW OMG that's the first time i have seen this , brings tears to my eyes , what a legacy this man has left behind R.I.P Freddie you will never b forgotten , true British rock at it's best that cannot be surpassed .
FREDDIE would be PROUD of his Fellow Countrymen and everyone else in Attendance, hell yeah 👍 ROCK ON 🤘 that’s exactly what we do in concerts 🎵🎶🎵🎶Love from New Zealand 🇳🇿
I’ve seen another video of this from in the audience before too. Got to love every one singing this. I believe it’s now a tradition at their shows to play this song while the people are waiting for the band to come out and play. It’s just great!
I saw Queen live in 1978 at Glasgow Apollo. Amazing. Seeing Freddie coming on stage on the shoulders of a huge body builder who was dressed as Superman is an image I'll never forget. And the huge gong at the back of the stage for the end of Bohrap and nothing else - priceless.
In Britain we learn about Bohemian Rhapsody at a young age, everyone talks about it and it is ingrained in our culture. Freddie (real name Farrokh Bulsara born in Zanzibar, came to England met the rest of Queen whilst studying) and he included Ithe Islam word Bismillah, in the name of God in the lyrics) wrote a brilliant and legendary song. Outstanding musicianship by all of the band. Bohemian Rhapsody has been voted the greatest song of all time ❤
Yes but I’m pretty sure he wasn’t the Queen front man from the start. Whoever it was moved on and Freddie was there to step in. I think the band doubted him at first.
I was in the crowd for this, i remember vividly sipping a beer, the song came on and i just instinctively started singing... I never realised at the time that EVERYBODY was singing until i stumbled upon this video a year later. Still sends shivers down my spine,
The fact that everyone singing and enjoying Freddie and Queens music was amazing. But, for Green Day to realise and engage their audience in another artists song before their set, was inspirational. Paying homage to an inspirational band like that just shows their integrity in the industry.
Hello young people! I just discovered your channel the other day and I've been watching a LOT of your stuff since! I've seen this before, but I just love your reaction to it! Queen has been my ride or die since '74 and this is a real moment. This one's a keeper!
I don't know if it happens anymore, but growing up singing was almost a daily occurrence in schools. My primary school had a morning assembly where we sung hymns and on Fridays a school vote on a selection of "age appropriate" modern songs to sing. I cannot hold a note to save my life to be clear, but I wonder if that's why us Brits are happy to sing songs during these sort of events. You see it on a more basic level in football chanting
The band were literally waiting in the wings to come on, but when they heard what was happening, they just let it happen, all credit to them for that.
I didn't know that. That's excellent.
To be fair, they always let the song play in full. They have a pre-show mix tape that plays in its entirety before the band comes out. Bohemian Rhapsody has been on that mix for decades. Blitzkrieg Bop too.

Green Day also posted this vid on their official channel
Edit: Almost forgot to add, Kudos to them for doing that.
Green Day must love the type of fans they have.
In the UK you learn to say mama, dada then all the lyrics to Bohemian Rhapsody. It's the law.
Absolutely 😂
😂
Can confirm as a Brit. I don’t recall learning the words to Bohemian Rhapsody I just knew them.
Fun fact - In UK... After 9 weeks at number one... It was 'Mamma Mia' by Abba that knocked Bohemian Rhapsody off the top spot.
It's part of our birthright
Community singing is in our genes. Be it in the pub, at the football, the Proms, in church, we like to sing.
Starts from school assemblies then goes from there
@@BT-sj9sustarted from war
Somebody called it your second National Anthem ? And choirs at school??
As a Brit I'd say the standing ovation was for Freddie and not themselves. It's just how we roll‼️❤😉🇬🇧
Yeah I was just about to say they weren’t clapping themselves, they were giving applause to Freddie and his timeless anthem
The ovation was for Freddie. He will never Die.
I was in the crowd for this. No coordinating, no words on the screens. One of the highlights of the gig
Kudos to Green Day for filming it from their stage and putting the video out there.
Freddie was a master of crowd control and even from the great beyond 33 years after his passing
26yrs he passed 91 the video is 2017

Even today at major events like the World Cup they play Freddie's vocal warm up exercise over the loud speakers to get the crowds pumped up.
He would be so pleased.
This song is able to be sung word for word by every English person no matter what their age. Freddie was one of a kind. May he rest in peace
Freddie was once asked what his favourite instrument was. He replied:
"Oh the audience darling!"
Yep Freddie was right there. 😥
And he played the audience like no one else could.
Sorry... just to add, as we are British, the applause would have been for a great song, and for Freddie writing it. We dont usually applaud ourselves, thanks again you two😁
and just excitement over this special moment, I guess...
Freddie... Gone but not Forgotten.
He'd probably had LOVED it . 😍
Every new born baby leaves the hospital with a Queen greatest hits CD
😂😂❤🇬🇧
it is the UK's biggest selling album of all time
How did they fit them all on a single CD??

An amazing time in your life you will never forget. It's such a feel good moment.
I definitely heard you. It was perfect mixing. You stood out from the support singers.
@@whattiler5102It was probably the beer!
Well...Freddie did say, “I don’t want to be a rockstar...I want to be a legend”.......he got his wish🤩
The final ovation was not for themselves but for him .
I was there it was amazing, green day actually waited until we had sang it all and by the end so many people were hugging and had tears, it was beautiful. All our school assemblies really were for a reason ❤❤
I was literally crying from that, the loss of Freddie, the unison of the crowd and also the Brits, when they get together it’s awesome.
Brilliant!! Why can't the whole world be united like that?....if only ❤
65,000 + people singing Bohemian Rhapsody brings tears to your eyes
And how many were not even born when Queen released this epic song...
It very nearly did to me to. It was emotional and very touching. What an atmosphere that must have been. I’ve never seen this so thanks to those who suggested it and a great reaction guys. I hope you got my link for ACDC at Riverplate.

hello! newly young adult here! everyone my age knows this song word for word still :) it will be here for at least another 70 years!
Just occurred to me, one of Green Day’s biggest video hits is their audience singing a Queen song.
The world is weird.
It just shows how great music spans all generations.

You know Freddie is up there watching..... forever young
I doubt Christian’s believe he is “up there “ and not “down there.”
@@rickb.4168 Hun, a sin is a sin. And we’re all sinners. There is no large or small sin.
I really don’t know how many other songs can be picked up by a crowd and sung like that, Bohemian Rhapsody is just an absolute classic.

Someone get in touch with the Guinness Book of Records. This has to be the largest choir in history. RIP Fred, you were and still are loved
Queen: noun. The only band to play and rock an 80000+ festival without ever being there.
This is such a famous video, also really cool that Green Day realised what they'd captured and uploaded it.
