No one has ever been able to beat how great Freddie Mercury was with the crowd of any of his performances
I AGREE ❤️
Can you imagine being there ❤️
Cough* Billie Joe Armstrong cough*
OMG. Yes. In fact, check back to this comment in 10 years. My name is Fiona Jupiter and have a good night y'all! I am taking this into inspiration and I will keep the Freddie spirit on. Queen fans, I've got your back.
@Ali Shaikh no
we're all watching while knowing that Queen's Live Aid would be and would always be on no.1
Freddie ❤️
This UA-cam channel would probably get boycotted if not 😂
Queen's Live Aid set will forever be amazing. They had the world in their hand for nearly half an hour.
Lol but super true!
Yes indeed.
You can't say enough about Freddie at Live Aid. He was wondrous. Golden. Watching live from thousands of miles away on small, one-speaker TV, his charisma, his showmanship and his devotion to give everything he had to that huge crowd shone through. Thanks, Freddie.
Queen at live aid is unbeatable. No one can ever top it. It stays for eternity
Agreed✨
Always evergreen queen live aid this video is fake and bundle that there no queen on 1st no
Only Limp Bizkit at Woodstock 99´
@@germanandres24 you mean soggy bizkit??
Kashmir O2 concert easily the best without a doubt
“I love the fact that I can make people happy, in any form. Even if it’s just an hour of their lives, if I can make them feel lucky or make them feel good, or bring a smile to a sour face, that to me is worthwhile.”

That's a GOAT comment that could only be made by a GOAT in the world!!
Queen produced the greatest live performance i have ever seen in my life at "Live Aid" i will never forget it as long as i live. I am guilty of watching it even now on a regular basis, i just cant help it. Just amazing, Freddie Mercury is a God.
Freddie Mercury ♥️
I have it on DVD… no use for it now because I don’t have a DVD player but I watched it so many times in the past that it’s sentimental to me! It has a special place on my shelf haha
I think AC/DC at River Plate should have been on the list.
What an absolutely insane performance
Totally
Absolutely. The music was great and the crowd was just white hot throughout the show.
Queen Live Aid
0% attitude
0% autotune
30% jeans and t-shirts
100% talented musicians
130% ?

"Autotune is the worst"
Okay boomer.
Queen is good, but no way are they the best band live.

Queen at Live Aid is legendary. The best live performances all time
Hands down...how many other artists attended? Legendary artists? And you ONLY hear about queens performancr
Queen Saved Live Aid too!
It’s not better than the Beatles’ rooftop concert
@@bluepeng8895 nothing can compare to queens live aid nothing but also i love the beatles but nothing
@@bluepeng8895 cannot compare them. Beatles were only singing but queen interact with the crowd in the whole show.
I'm in complete agreement with the list....... Nobody was, is, and never will be better than Freddie Mercury
Freddie and Michael are music legends, they're top tier of all time
Steven tyler is much better than freddie
This is gonna make people mad but Paul McCartney
so you never heard of robert plant
i'm sorry but Paul McCartney? Michael Jackson?..., Michael was the greatest entertainer

gcardoso ?
Absolutely without a dought!!!!! RIP Freddie Mercury- there will NEVER be another like him ❤️❤️💔💔💔💔😇👍
Absolutely agree...
I thought you were putting Queen at Live Aid as an honorable mention and for a second I nearly lost my shit.
Jons Wife hehe same here queen became my fav band after watching their wembly show

Same. I was just a kid at the time of Live Aid but I remember that set.
Same for a second, but instinctively dismissed it as being impossible.
jon snow is daddy me too! I was WTF!!
No mention of MJ or his Bad Tour? Literally one of the best tours of all time
Absolutely 😔😤
Agreeeeeed
At least someone said it
Yesssss
Good show but can't beat Queen's Freddie Mercury and how he easily controls the crowd.
Am I the only one here who just saw the video to make sure queens’ live aid performance is number one?
Nah you will never be alone in thinking that
Here
So, what's your favorite instrument to play?
Jimi Hendrix: The Guitar
Paul McCartney: The Bass
John Bonham: The Drums
Bruce Springsteen: Vocals
Daft Punk: A Dell
Sid Vicious: What you got on you?
Freddie Mercury: The audience, darling.
John Entwistle was bass monster; Paul's just a famous bassist and great composer; Entwistle was monster on bass, wayyyyyy beyond Paul; quite obviously so.
@@just4music687 Don't know what that has to do with my comment, but sure.
@@just4music687 he overplayed to compete with guitars. He played guitar on bass.
JIMI PAGES GUITAR IS THE BEST!!!
Paul was so good at composing and making beats , john deacon was a great bass player also .
Queen has no rival for live performances!!! There is will never be a showman so captivating as Freddie or better vocals!!!!!
im so glad daft punk is numero 8
Listen to Led Zeppelin. Their live performances were from another world. You won't find two concerts the same from them. They improvised a lot. Do not get me wrong, Queen is very good but LZ is a little better. And Robert Plant could outstand Freddie on high notes(in his early days). But why am i comparing two legends?
Eduard Alexuc led zepplin look like a piece of shit in Freddie eyes believe it or not Freddie blows all the singer out of heaven into hell
Tanner Beckett could you make the best song ever written exactly no your probably gonna make the same song that everyone else does looking at your profile its gonna be rap songs talking about women drugs strippers and money
@@CocoaPuffKids Even Freddie would disagree with you buddy. Robert Plant was one of his insiprations.
Joe Cocker at Woodstock!
His version of "With a little help from my friends" is pure MAGIC!!
Queen' Live Aid performance will never be dethroned as the greatest musical performance of all time.
Today is 34 years since Live Aid, and it is still so iconic!!
nice rubric
3400 years later it would still be iconic
Queen's performance will never be out performed until the end of time, and I'm not even a huge queen fan.
@@Sunociva don't forget dire straits too
FREDDIE MERCURY ❤️
Queen performed the greatest live performance ever ! Freddie Mercury’s passion and energy will never be equaled. Legendary ! Miss you Freddie !
Mercury is good but he is overated... why everyone like him so much? He not even a close to singers like Axl Rose, Brian Johnson, Bon Scott and wayyyyyy more

RIGHT! Queen at Live Aid gave us the absolutely best performance .. . 20 minutes of music plus interaction with those there in Wembley AND across the world seeing it all on TV. Their music and performing still 'fresh' entertainment these many, many years later. . . . Love them; tears for Freddie.
Michael Jackson: exists

Only Freddie could be make that. Ay ooooohhhhhh
Ay oooooohhh
All Right!
Yeah I thought they'd have mentioned it at some point but they didnt
#10 - #2 _______________
#1 Queen, Wembley, 1985
List approved.
Agreed
#1 forever, nobody can top this for me...
Wrath Oranos Totally agree! I watched Live Aid on a live telecast when I was a kid and remember thinking that most of the acts sounded (and looked) like ass. U2's set was great and probably started their rise to fame in other countries, but their performance paled in comparison to Queen's. Freddie Mercury had the crowd eating out of his hand in a performance that sent chills down my spine (and I was watching on TV, I can't imagine being there)! That set was a truly epic display of showmanship and talent that is rarely seen.
One Goat I hate to quibble because I also think Queen deserve to head this list. However, at Live Aid Queen were allowed to cut to their video of Bohemian Rhapsody because they could not have achieved Tue multiple vocal effects live. They started and ended live but the middle section was recorded. But they were still the best act of Live Aid. In my opinion, Dire Straits should have been included in this list.
Wrath Oranos That's about right. Allman Brothers Live at the Fillmore east also deserves an automatic spot as well.
Queen is a gift from god and the ones that past will never be forgotten rest in piece.
I think we all new who would be first on this list, its forever gonna be that Queen performance at live aid 1985
Queen live Aid 1985 will never passed, Freddy Mercury had those 72,000 singing along, and he had a billion watching it on TV singing along as well. For half an hour Queen controlled the world.
There'll never be another like Freddie. He wasn't the first rock star, but man, he perfected it. Freddie was able to hold a funny microphone in one hand, and the audience in his other.
Thomas kees oasis Maine road 1996 was better
In Rock In Rio Freddie had 300 000 people singing along, that was so awesome.
It has been passed multiple times actually.
Masshole Bill Watch Prince’s Halftime Show and you’ll see someone better than Freddie.

Emilie Beth Metallica Moscow 1991 should have been #1
Led Zeppelin is still Epic. Solid Gold .
There is still some people that don't understand the kind of revolution Daft Punk made that night. That was the first time that an artist had that kind of technology and production in a live performance. You can hate their music, but that night America was rocked by the robot duo, achieving for the first time respect to an emerging music genre like electronic. Their spot is very well deserved.
Also, long live that day when England was rulled by a different Queen.
You sound like you should be writing the voiceovers! I always liked Daft Punk but I didn’t know that this concert was one of the first (if not THE first) to do something like that, hopefully there’s a full version to watch on UA-cam 🙂
@@jaycook6639 That concert of daft punk will always be one of the 10 greatest of all time and the greatest when it comes to revolutionizing the industry of live music

+Jamie Wood 20y/o dont know nirvana :P
+James Shand They got an honorable mention. Isn't that good enough.
Springsteen's 4 hour concerts are incredible, and he's still rockin' at 70+ years young.
Sex Pistols and Daft Punk’s gigs deserve mention if not for the musicality of their shows, but for the importance of these two gigs. The Pistols Manchester gig gave us Joy Division / New Order and the Smiths and basically helped make Punk what it became during the late 70’s
Daft Punk almost singlehandedly created the quintessential edm performance during this tour. During the 2010’s you saw EVERYONE in electronic music try to capture what they did at Coachella.
Queen: Live Aid 1985 is hands down the best live performance I've ever seen!
Freddie was born to make people happy!
And he did it that day in 1985!
Incredible tallent.
Never see his like again!

Hands down , without a doubt. the single greatest live performance was Queen at Live Aid. off the chart amazimg.performamce
We all knew what would be #1, Queen at LiveAid is unbeatable, and is easily the most legendary live concert ever.
Happy to see no one disagrees with Queen taking top spot
Hendrix should be # 1
Yeah I disagree, the Allman Brothers live at Filmore East should've been#1
That's a great album, I love the ABB; was it taken from one night though, or is it compiled from a few performances?
Freddie Mercury: WE ARE THE CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!!!! 👊💪
There's certainly no way that anybody would complain about that 🤗 Queen always 😎
Mercury is a legend. The others are good of course, but he brought the audience right into the performance. The world lost an amazing talent when he passed.

why I wasn't lucky enough to see Queen live?? Pls someone build a time machine
I was abroad then n live aid in tv was boring till they showed up. Just picture how well the japanese followed...truly magical
Live aid would be destination 1, Woodstock 69 would be destination 2. Screw killing hitler, that's the only reason to use a time machine
Oona Y same I would pay thousands to go to live aid or Wembley stadium to see Freddie but if im paying that much I want front seat
Tanner Beckett it was a joke asshole
CocoaPuffKids woooosh
Came here just for Queen. Easily in my opinion the best rock band ever. Freddie, Brian, Roger and John are all geniuses with music.
definitely along with Led Zep
brandon viles AGREED
I think pink Floyd takes the #1 spot. Queen would be 2 or 3 up there with the beetles and led zeppelin
hey its not an opinion it's a fact it's the best band in history of everything
Mickey Serna I really don't like Queen tbh
Number one has to be and will always be Queen at Live Aid
I agree
On Live aid, queen was the best act, no question about that.
But, except for Queen all acts came ill prepared, it was easy being the best act at Live Aid. It was the reaction of all other acts "holy Sh1t, they prepared, they're stealing the show" that made it legendary, not the gig itself, Queen themselves had many better gigs, others too, just not at Live Aid.
Queen had the most legendary concert in live aid 1985, we have to agree, the impact of the live performance was more than any other performance ever done before or after
AC/DC at River Plate Stadium (Argentina 2009) - 240.000 people in three sold-out shows.

The unplugged performance Alice In Chains did is one of the best live albums I’ve ever listened to
Yes!!!
I grew up in Europe and queen was even back then my favourite band. I never had chance to see them live in person, but I did watch the Live Aid concert with them live on TV as a 16 year old and even back then I knew nothing could ever eclipse that.
Michael Jackson's live concert in Bucharest was watched all over the world too. I'm totally fine with Queen being first, because their Live Aid performance was iconic as hell! Michael should've been on the list though

No Michael, no Elvis. This list is fundamentally flawed.
As much as I love the Beatles, I would hate to go to their concerts because of the screaming girls

Full Blank I AGREE
NOT ALL OF THE BEST LIVE PERFORMANCES NEED TO BE IN ROCK AND ROLL
you have a damn near endless supply of musical genres and sub-genres
yet when it comes to BEST LIVE PERFORMANCES everyone focuses their attention on one-sided genres
i've seen some amazing live shows from different artists
expanding from pop, rap, edm, indie, alternative, underground and a LITTLE BIT of rock and roll (i've
seen other good shows from other genres too) ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO PRODUCTION!!!!
lists like these should focus on more than just genres and legends.
THEY SHOULD MORE ON THE PRODUCTION OF THE SHOWS, THE COMMUNITY AND FANBASE OF THOSE ARTISTS AND TRY TO BE LITTLE MORE DIVERSE WHEN IT COMES TO GENRE. not to mention current live shows from the big and upcoming artists have insane amounts of production leading to a bigger experience. There is also mentioning of specific venues, festivals and arenas, that shouldn't be shadowed over either. but at this point, you get idea. i'm just sick of the one-sided genre bullshit.
There has never been and never will be another great as Queen
So true
Nothing ever has, or ever will compare to the Queen’s performance at “Live Aid”. Freddie Mercury performed like a God. He even had larengitis in that set. That level of talent will never be matched by a front man ever again.
naaah the best metallica concert was Seattle 1989
I was just thinking that,imo there is no metallica live performance that can top the one in 89.The only one that get close maybe is one in Moscow in 92 i think.
It was 91
*****
Hey Billy, Speaking of Seattle? I cannot believe these idiots misspelled Foxy Lady... TWICE!!! (Foxey Ain't it) They did say Seattle musician Jimi Hendrix, but fuck 'em anyway... TWICE!!!!!!!
+billygoat126 S&M is epic, though! I guess I still have to look at Seattle 1989 to judge porperly but what Kamen did to those songs is just awesome!
Moscow 1991
Queen will never be beat..! They rocked us and they really are the champions!
Clicked this video just to make sure Queen Live Aid was #1… list approved. Carry on.
Freddie Mercury ruled the world for 22 minutes in 1985 and nobody has ever been better! Queen will always be the greatest live band in rock and roll history with the most phenomenal front man ever in rock!
fun fact: Freddie Mercury’s favorite instrument is the crowd
I was working in a bar in Ft. Lauderdale & we had Live Aid playing on the tvs... when Queen started Radio Ga Ga...we all just froze & watched it unfold. Man, what a Showman Mercury was! The band was at the time considered a "70s" band & were not as popular as some of the other acts of the time. They blew EVERYONE away with that show...
What an amazing story! What year was this ?
@@aquablue1252 summer of 85...what a performance..
Im so jealous on you i was'nt even born there😥
Was this MTV? I don’t remember them broadcasting that performance live. In the US, it seems like they were giving preference to whoever was playing in Philadelphia at the same moment.
Where the fuck is Pink Floyd in Pompeii, Live 8 or P.U.L.S.E? at least number 3 :s
+Sebastián B. or the Wall Live in Berlin!! that was the most politically meaningful rock concert in world history - but not in the US
phishfearme2 Right, that concert in Berlin was so amazing :/
***** strictlu speaking, PULSE is not a "concert" or a "musical performance" - it's a compilation of a number of "division bell" concert performances for the purposes of selling a DVD. however, I agree - PULSE is the best.
Agreed Pulse is epic Coming Back To Life
+Sebastián B. I saw the Pulse tour in Nashville. That show, in and of itself, blows away any on this list.
The Queen video brought tears to my eyes, I got to see them twice before Freddy died. They had the best stage show I have ever seen. I loved their diversity in the styles of music they wrote and performed. I am now disabled but still play Bass with a great original band and will be playing the Bay area this Aug. and Sept. at 60 years old, not bad for a crippled old hippie from Oregon. I do have 7 years of classical training from my youth, my symphonic teachers were extremely talented, and I won 2 scholarships for lessons with an incredible man who played with the Boston Pops and Tiajuana Brass.
Lucky man.
Freddie Mercury and Queen - Live Aid - the greatest 20 minutes of rock EVER. Everyone else is in a fight for second place.
If u have not seen the LIVE AID of queen then your eyes are still virgin
ever seen metallica in moscow'91
not got anything on seattle 89
Yess!! They were freaking incredible and I remember the day watching that and they just blew everybody out of the water even though U2 gave a good performance and so did Duran Duran. Some of the bands that I expected to be the best really weren't but I didn't think that Queen would have anything less than awesome of a performance because they always gave 150% and they wouldn't stand for less than that. They were the same four original members and they all wrote different kinds of songs and genius is at their craft and when you have three science majors with two Doctorate Degrees and electronics engineer bassist along with Freddie Mercury degree and graphic illustration and Design, there you have it. It should have never worked because Freddie Mercury was so camp but Freddie, Rooger, and Brian we're close friends when they were going to the university. Freddie was best friends with Tim staffell, who had been the lead singer of SMILE, along with Brian and Roger. As as a matter of fact, the three of them were roommates from 1968 until Freddie moved in with Mary Austin in 1970. The cost of living was so high there and Brian Rodger and Freddie were so poor that the three of them shared a large efficiency apartment. They were going to college and working little odd jobs and smile had some music gigs going on, but the band wasn't really going anywhere. Freddie Mercury kept telling them you guys are good but you should do this and you should do this and his best friend Tim wasn't going to do that because he wasn't like Fred. Tim said he loved Freddie as a best friend, and he admired Freddie for doing what he did, but that he would never have felt comfortable doing what Freddie did. There was some talk about Freddie Mercury joining SMILE when Freddie Mercury was lead singer for IBEX/ Wreckage- but Brian was saying no no no. Freddy is excellent on the piano and excellent vocalist but there's no way that Tim is going to do what Freddie wants like an actual performance because it wasn't Tim's Style. After about 18 months Tim left the band to go play for humpybong 😂 Brian and Rodger we're just going to throw in the towel and give up and that's when Freddie Mercury was there Catalyst and said no no no guys you can't give up! You've got to keep working hard for what you want and if you need to lead singer I will sing with you and you can do your thing and I'll do my thing. it worked except they didn't find a good enough bass player until after going through 6 and they finally got John Deacon when he was 19 in 1971, and that was the final Queen band. Freddie Mercury was John Deacon's mentor, and helped him a lot with writing and even singing after about six years because John Deacon just didn't feel comfortable singing. it was not until about the time news of the world came out in 1977 that John finally felt comfortable singing back around with the rest of the guys but he wasn't the vocalist that Brian and Rodger were at all but he could still sing quite well. I wanted to hear his voice more and there's a UA-cam video with John Deacon singing; and he was singing harmony with Freddie in a concert, and I was actually amazed because he sounded great. John also made that special amplifier that could make Brian's guitar sound like an orchestra or anything he wanted to do with it. I'm sure they still use it today in addition to that John Deacon was there business manager pretty much because he handled all of their business and financial matters from 1975 on because he was good with money and figures. is anybody had a question about how much they paid in taxes as well as how many crew members they were paying the band members would look over and point to John and say, "you would have to ask him." John was saying he didn't exactly know but he thought there were about 35 people that toured with them that were there set up crew and their Roadies. in the studio they did work with other people like Reinhold Mack. he was an actual genius sound engineer and they started working with him around 1980 and he and Freddie Mercury became so close they were like family and Mack named his son Freddie Mack and Freddie was the baby's Godfather. I just love that name Freddie Mack because it sounds so cool. Freddie Mercury was also Godfather to Mary Austin's oldest son Richard. Freddie Mercury spoiled those kids & sent them giant sized teddy bears and toys, in addition to calling Reinhold Mack to ask them what they were feeding the baby and Reinhold said that Freddie Mercury was more meticulous about what the baby ate than his own mother.😂😂😂
Ngl literally cried during May’s solo in we are the champions no bs
You probably didn’t saw LIVE AID before bohemian rhapsody: the film
I 'm 64 From E- Van.BC, Been going to Rock concerts since the 60's, seen many of the greats Led Zep. 4 X, Deep purple 2 X, Johnny Winter, The Who, The Stones, Beach Boys, The Boss, Eagles, Heart ...and a ton more ...
Without a doubt in my mind Freddy Mercury and the Queen band at Farm Aid was and most likely will always by far be the greatest live ROCK performance of ALL TIME.
The positive feedback loop Freddy and the band created with the audience was mesmerizing ...It was like they were all one entity joined in an upward spiral of pure musical ecstasy ...just for me watching it, I can feel the beautiful energy ...
I just watched the Bohemian Rhapsody movie last night ...and I'm still tingling ...peace...
Me too.
What the hell is Farm Aid?
Rumoci 72 it was a giant music festival in the 80’s similar to Live Aid which I’m sure he’s referring to
Im jealous you got to see him live. 😔
Buddy it’s live aid not farm aid
Tina Turner at Wembly, Proud Mary
Metallica at Moscow, Enter Sandman
They should put here Stairway to Heaven in MSG 1973, my god that performance was breathtaking in my opinion
Queen 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Greatest by a mile.
they should make Top 10 Queen Concerts...
The Sex Pistols show wasn't the reason Punk existed in England at all. You're thinking of the Ramones at the Roundhouse.
Someone with a brain
Sex Pistols are the Kings of Punk and The Ramones are the Princes.
I saw the Ramones at the Metro in Boston. 1) My date and I got separated in the crowd. Five minutes later I saw her being lifted over the stage by a couple bouncers, she was getting crushed against the front barrier. 2) My buddy Mark Sheehan was too young to get in, so he waited out in the street. He got to meet the band as they exited. Years later he played drums for CJ Ramone's band, Bad Chopper.RIP Mark
metalmusician6798 You guys are all wrong, Iggy Pop and The Stooges started it all with proto punk !!
OK on The Stooges... I mentioned The Ramones because I saw them perform. There's early Alice Cooper... "Billion Dollar Babies"...
Queen at live aid and queen live at Wembley 86 are my go to live performances. I really think they were the best live band ever. Not necessarily the best band overall but live they were beasts ❤
Queen is up there but i think who and purple are better
@@filipstudzinski they're both fantastic but different styles which people always seem to forget lol. They're certainly fantastic
Oct. 2 still watching this again and again. Probably one of the best list watchmojo ever did. *taunting* make a list of your best video list ever made.
RHCP should've made it to the list
satvik moj Slane Castle was legendary
satvik moj yup
I know right
👍
True I rember the first full scale concert I went yo RHCP IN OKC it was awsome it was in like 2012 I think
Well I personally love Muse at Wembley, but that's just me :)
Totally agree with the Beatles and Queen. 2 defining bands of their time
2011jakew Muse :D
Thank you
Muse definatly gods of rock
2011jakew MUSE are totally Gods of rock, best band of our time, I saw them live 1 week ago and it was magic...
Pushing it a little lol...
Tons of absolute great concerts but no band on earth can top Queen at Live Aid. Everything about them is perfection personified. RIP Freddie.
Queen live aid is truly amazing
Yes!
metallica in moscow 1991... over 500,000 people crowded an entire city in the last years of the USSR i mean cmon dude i’m not even a huge fan of them but that shit is wayyy underrated
DarkBeforeLight pantera
I agree with both of you plus queen is way overrated
@@levikulhanek1541 So if someone is too good it bothers you. Queen isn't overrated. They are awesome. And how really are they overrated. Just saying cause of the stupid Queen arguments of their fanbase. It wasn't Mercury's fault for having the best song ever written, the best voice ever, the most greatest concerts and events.
@@@knowyourroleboulevard7119 I'm not saying metallica is better than them as a fact but as my opinion and queen is overrated because I don't think their songs are that good and they always get mentioned
Metallica concert was free and it didn't have a bound venue.
It's obvious the people were to join. But Wembley Stadium could hold only around 72k people.
I'm a fan of both Metallica and Queen
But Queen's way of production, Freddie's showmanship and their idea of getting the crowd involved by making the songs like "we will rock you" could've easily made the whole world to sing with them.
Qeeuns performance still gets shivers. How can one tiny man excite such a crowd in a positive way. It looks as if he is singing in his kitchen. What a performer. Sadly died much too young. Respect!
Queen isn't one man, it's four amazing, talented men that work together
Peter Steven s what dumb comment is this
I saw the Beatles in Cleveland, Ohio in 1964. The seating was wooden folding chairs. The concert started with everyone seated, but within moments, everyone was standing. Since the girls couldn't see they stood on the chairs. That lasted for a few minutes, then they stood on the backs of the folding wooden chairs, depending on the nearest guy to hold them up, I didn't mind that one bit. The screaming was so loud, the only thing I could compare it to was being close to a jet at takeoff. I was just 17 (you know what I mean), and it's a fond memory of my youth.
Dire straits -Alchemy Live is one of the best .....i have ever seen
Those are the truly blessed soul who were present at QUEENS Live Aid Amen. Love from Assam (India) 🤗🤗
Queens Really? it is queen and you would not be saying this if not for the damn movie...
poor Freddie, he ate a bad weenie!!
Bryce D. Anderson Bro, I wanna punch you but than give you an ice pack
Queen is the best one.
I just came here to see Queen on first position.
+Alessandro Galletti Same
sameeeee
Queen is so god dam overrated
+Dylan Scheffler dafucks wrong with you?
Before Live Aid Freddie doctor said he will have problem on vocal but Freddie ignored the doctor and continue the performance. Prove that Queen are Legendary.
Uhmm didn't Freddie get to know he got AIDS after the Live AID.
"Mama oooooooooh"....sound of heaven speaking
In my opinion Freddie Mercury is a legend. He had an amazing vocal range and talent. Queen definitely deserved to be #1.
Suspicious Teen agreed. I was devastated when Freddie passed. :(
Amen brother!
I am glad he died because I can not bare to listen to his voice grow old his voice would sound pretty bad concidering he smoked well Roger Taylor did too but his voice already sounded fucked up to begin with
A legend, indeed. Who would doubt that? Most charismatic frontman ever. What a loss.
Jolly Roger yeah well it was a hit and miss
I've watched the entire Queen set off of number one, and I gotta agree, it's pretty intense to see almost the entire audience sing along and such with their songs, def worth the the number one spot!
And for the people arguing over the daft punk, I was there, and let me tell you, it was insane, no-one expected it to be good, but the way it was displayed, the way they portrayed the music and entertainment was amazing, if I was high like 90% of the people there I would have blown my mind. Also, the audience that ran to see Daft punk was like a tidal wave, I looked back once, half the field was empty, looked back again and it was as far as I could see of people.
The queen set had a great story behind it too....completely unprepared, fighting backstage, political controversy...but it was a perfect culmination of moments and people...I agree with the #1 too.
It's even better when you realize that those that were there were not all Queen fans. They were there for the entire Live Aid performance which had dozens of bands and singers present. For Mercury to get the entire crowd going the way he did is a testament to his showmanship and the performance.
Some musicians play guitar, some play piano; Daft Punk puts together the sounds of many instruments to make harmony, and beauty, to make music. They surely did make enjoyment for all, is that not what music is for?
Daft Punk does some cool stuff. It's not my favorite thing, but i have fun in my own studio playing with live mixing like that. While i don't put it on the same shelf as instrument musicians, it has it's own thing going on. I'd have fun at a show.
Patrick Strong very well said :D
Perrsonally my fav is Led Zepp on Rah. So much power and musicship in that blues -rock music of theirs
Bucharest '92? That concert was so good I had to get it on DVD (I'm not old, you are)
