    In 1985, I was one of the 1.5B people (more than 1/4 of the planet’s human population at the time) singing along with Freddy and Queen on that day. The moment was not lost on me then, as I realized this would never happen again.

Ugh, thank goodness I now have headphones and my own tablet so I can blast Queen to my hearts content! Hate to admit though but I don't want to go to the new Queen concerts because Adam Lambert just doesn't cut it for me. Yes I rooted for Adam on American idol but just can't accept him with Roger and Brian, and they are sorely missing John Decon! ❤ to All Queen fans.

      @@JonathanGarcia-pq5hg your sort of right. It was a concert that had numerous bands, and singers playing. David Bowie, Elton John, Queen, etc. And at the same time they had bands playing in front of a massive audience at John F. Kennedy stadium all the way in America in Philadelphia. I'm not sure who all played THERE, but I know Black Sabbath with Ozzy Osbourne was one of them. So no, the fans were not ALL Queen fans, but there were some Queen fans attending.

    The single best rock and roll performance in the history of music. I was lucky to see it live. There will never be another talent like this ever. Freddy performed like it was his last day on Earth. Notice how he says, "and I thank you all" in the lyrics. He knew he was sick and dying at the time of this concert and gave 100%. He was simply the most fantastic live entertainer of his generation.

      Don't use God's name in vain
      Repent and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, for we are sinful people. We've lied, stolen, used God's name in vain, and looked at people with lust. Even though Jesus said that it is adultery. Which is how God is going to see and judge us. But God sent his son Jesus down on this earth to pay our fine. And God's wrath for us was used on Jesus, but because Jesus never sinned, he rose again. Now Repent and trust in the Lord, for he is coming one day. This is not religious, religion tells you works get you to heaven. For it it by grace and not of your works that you are saved! Trust in Jesus!!!! 😳

The video for Radio Gaga was just so iconic with the fans clapping above their heads that they knew exactly what to do - absolutely brilliant.
