Not only English is not our first language in Brazil, but also it was the 80's... It was not as easy as it is today with internet to find song lyrics or learn another language. And still, people knew how to sing this song so passionately
As i think about it more and more the moment that everyone shared on that day for the concert had to be so damn good! For the performers the feeling they felt I would have been so hype hearing people sing my songs if i was an artist. so can only imagine :) thanks for the lovely message. best wishes.
It was January 1985, I was 24 years old and I was in the Maracanã stands to the left of the stage. There were 300 thousand people singing all the songs, a sea of people. The synergy was total. This show and the following year's show at Wembley Stadium were considered the biggest and best in Queen's career. After the song "Love of my life" sung throughout the rock city, which I sang at the top of my lungs, Brian May said: “This song is very special for people in South America. Thank you for making it so special for all the other people in the world, ”he said in a voice choked with emotion. Well, this song was not popular in Europe, but after the RIRio of 85 this changed. This show was considered one of the greatest live performances in rock history. We live in the moment and only long after we realize that we lived history.
One of the most beautiful songs ever created, and the crowd here is just awesome. Though Brazilian crowds being amazing is usually just par for the course. lol How it must feel hearing that amount of people chanting your name (as happens to Brian here) is beyond comprehension really. Rock In Rio '85 was actually the very first Rock In Rio, and was held in January of that year. Fantastic reaction as always. :)
Having watched hours of various festivals around the world. No one beats Brazilian or Argentinian crowds for energy or passion. Makes me hate British crowds.
As as Brazilian who lived in England for a few years it felt incredibly weird for me to attend concerts in London. I couldn’t wrap my head around on why everybody was sitting down and not singing along to any songs hahaha
On this day, the audience was approximately 480 thousand people. Among all artists and bands, Queen's performance was the one that most marked and was immortalized in the hearts of Brazilians.
Great choice Kid. I'm a big Queen fan and this is among my favourites. It's spine-tingling to experience this song live at a concert. I was lucky to see Queen 6 times in the UK back in the day and they always played this one. I love it the way Freddie leaves the first half of the song to the crowd, and they all knew the lyrics. Their live shows are by far the best I ever experienced. Good luck getting to a concert yourself soon. Thanks for sharing.
thank you for watching. the one thing u def can see everyone knows the lyrics of the songs. for my first time i wont know the lyrics so when they were singing i felt left out lol hahahah but its all good i know how it is when you enjoy a song and u just know the lyrics by heart
Around 250,000 per show for Rio and they could sing this even though English language isn't the audience first language the whole group just wanted people too have a good time and everyone included
The Works Tour in 1984/1985 was one of Queen's largest tours and included the Brazil Rock in Rio festival-in which they appeared on stage at two o'clock in the morning in front of 470,000 people during the first night and 250,000 on the second night. The Boston Globe described it as a "mesmerizing performance".
Brian know about the phones - and now he asks the crowd to turn on the lights when he sings this song - with Freddie appearing as a hologram singing and conducting the crowd. that brings tears to the eyes also Brians.They still tour as Queen + Adam Lambert - and think about coming to America/Canada? next year if they are fit - Roger is 73 and Brian is 75.
Bxkid7, I think you would love to see Brian singing this song at Rock in Rio 2015 - very touching... Search by " Love Of My Life - Queen / Brian May - Rock in Rio Brasil 2015 " (at the beginning, he says "Sing with me, let's sing for Freddie"). Thirty years later...
Freddie Mercury had a voice of an Angel he was so talented and he knowed exactly how to control his audience. He was so amazing and and his fans miss him so much.. He would be so happy that he has all his fans and then still making new fans this long after his death
That's the beauty of talented artists. His music imo after watching more and more is timeless. The group was just amazing and even to this day some of my friends are mentioning him so it's so awesome his voice. Couldn't agree more with you. Thank you melissa =)
that's the thing im one of those horrible people who never know freaking names of artists slowly slowly picking it up and trying to get better but never a good skill on my end. but the we are the champions i remember from the revenge of the nerds growing up
Verdade, o Brasil foi o único país que adorou essa música, aí quando os outros países souberam que Love of my Life fez sucesso no Rock In Rio, eles começaram a gostar.
QUEEN'S FIRST PRESENTATION IN BRAZIL WAS IN 1981 AT SÃO PAULO, IT FULLED COMPLETELLY MORUMBI STADIUM. THEY RETURNED FOR THE FIRST ROCK IN RIO, AND ON BOTH PRESENTAYION THE AVARAGE OF PEOPLE WAS 250,000 PEOPLE. ON THE SECOND PRESENTATION HE SANG "ROCK IN RIO BLUES" . AND ALL SHOWS WERE LIVE ON TV. WHEN BRAZILIAN CROWDS LOVE THEY SING ALONG MOST TIMES. BUT WHEN THE SHOW IS NOT WHAT IT WAS EXPECTED, THEY LET IT CLEAR BOOING. ROGER WATERS FELT IT ON HIS BONES...
I’m an English lad born in early 80s and never seen or heard this before! Strange song to me, seems like a perfect cd cassette intro .. so strange but hairs stood up
Yep, buddy. I'll cut you some slack, but, when all this went on, English speaking countries barely acknowledged this song. The beauty lied exactly in a non-English speaking third world country doing... well... what you saw.
I cant speak for everyone else only for myself. Me I was in diapers when this song came out and about to be born into this world. I never got to appreciate queen when they first came out but I can now. That is the wonder and joy for me. Happy weekend.

@@annajuliagoncalvesluiz4144 your english is fine I would never say anything bad my friend. I just love interacting with everyone that is all =). You did well my dude!
Em 85 e o brasileiro ja sabia como ser o melhor público que um artista poderia ter.
e sem rede social...
Em tudo os brasileiros são show em questão de público, futebol,teatro, música. É incrivel a energia brasileira.
acho que ja era antes apenas nao temos videos gravados
Porque era uma ocasião raríssima assistir a uma banda de rock gringa aqui!!! A partir do Rock In Rio 85 o negócio ficou mais frenético!!!
E continua sendo, nessa os jovens não decepcionam os mais velhos kkkkk
You have to appreciate that English isn't their first language. GREAT crowd. Some say as many as 250,000 in audience.
Wowzers just insane numbers! And yea the crowd was beautiful. Would have loved to be in that audience live.
portuguese....500,000 people
Brazil
There were actually 500,000 people
Not only English is not our first language in Brazil, but also it was the 80's... It was not as easy as it is today with internet to find song lyrics or learn another language. And still, people knew how to sing this song so passionately
250,000 non English people singing back to Freddie...Freddie was almost brought to tears...and had a lump in his throat here. How amazing...

For the performers the feeling they felt I would have been so hype hearing people sing my songs if i was an artist. so can only imagine :) thanks for the lovely message. best wishes.

Não não não, foram 1 milhão de pessoas neste dia
O Mundo não conhece o Brazil nem imajinas o quanto a música faz parte dos Brasileiros...🇧🇷❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️🙏
E nois 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏👏👏👏👏
Love to see Brian getting some love. Brian has said that they felt overwhelmed by the emotion during this performance.

Ir was not in Maracanã! It was In another place! In Rio of course! But It was not in Maracanã!
Isso porque a música LOVE OF MY LIFE no Reino Unido não era tão conhecida como foi no Brasil... ❤️
Isso é Brasil 👨👩👧👦🇧🇷
Momento inesquecível. Melhor e maior show de Fred Mercury , milhares de pessoas cantando sob o comando de Freddie 😍
The greatest crowd conductor EVER!⭐❤🇬🇧👍

It was not as usual to have foregin singers making conerts around here... So I guess it made things even extra special
@@paulaaraujo7976 senti a mesma coisa nos EUA, é bizarro e tira 50% da graça do show, não importa o quanto você goste do artista hahaha
