I love it because the americans hate it, ive heard them say, americas number 1 baby we’ve had bigger and better 🤣🤣🤣 and we all know their just talking absolute shit
Led Zeppelin 1973 Madison square garden New York was the best for me. If I had any chance to go any concert, I would have definitely gone to it. (The Beatles Shea is an option too along with Pink Floyd’s last reunion in 2005)
Freddie Mercury is one of the most inspiring person to ever live, touching people’s hearts with not just his singing, but his personality, he inspired me to sing, and of course it had to end so soon, we miss you Freddie
Mercury was born Farrokh Bulsara in Stone Town in the British protectorate of Zanzibar (now part of Tanzania) on 5 September 1946.[3][4] His parents, Bomi (1908-2003) and Jer Bulsara (1922-2016),[a][5] were from the Parsi community of western India. The Bulsaras had origins in the city of Bulsar (now Valsad) in Gujarat.[b][3]
In my opinion I've seen some of the best bands ever I've seen Queen I still have my ticket stub and of course the best band of all Pink Floyd I've seen their concert twice. I was very fortunate I grew up in the 70s seen all the great bands. ACDC was the first band I seen that had cordless guitars and cordless mics we couldn't believe what we were seeing. ACDC went all the way around the top of the coliseum in Market Square Arena Indianapolis Indiana we were blown away. But that Freddie Mercury sure had a lot of talent. When I was in high school everybody played the song Another One Bites the Dust. The 70s was a great time for music. I still have all my 8tracks
I bought this song on a 45 record as a young tween girl. The flip side was "I want to ride my bicycle". Here I am in my early 60's today, December 2024 and I still know all the words. Rest in Peace Sir Freddie Mercury. 😎👑 🎶
i hate to be that guy.... i love freddie of course but playing this song on piano while singing isnt difficult at all, the piano track is pretty simple and singing along is easy. What's impressive is the vocals, he was in great vocal shape, hitting notes he'd usually dodge at other shows
@@justdoit4789 Because his voice was rarely in amazing shape when live, especially in this time period. 1984-86 was his worst vocal era (excluding parts of the jazz tour as that was more of a really bad one off) the reason he was in such great shape here was because there was a short break from touring right before live aid. Because of that, he was able to hit notes he'd otherwise dodge.
Brian’s guitar playing never ceases to amaze me. Every Bohemian Rhapsody performance, he does the solo differently yet it still has his own unique style to it. Phenomenal performance. Freddie’s voice was beautiful
16 and on the way to work, went to the shop, glanced at the papers went work and freddie was playing, all morning so I said is he getting award or something. Went home in tears
@@pantheroleoleo536 I'd say there both even, they both have there pros and cons I personally like bohemian rhapsody more since it isn't an empty song, with long guitar bits, unlike stair way the heaven where the vocals don't start until your a minute into the song and its kind just the same guitar riff or whatever with tiny changes.
I was born in 2007, but watching these old concert videos, feels like it might have been a perfect time to live in. No phones, people genuinely living the moment.
1985 He had the crowd eating out of the palm of his hand with songs everyone could sing, over the last 39 years nearly this events 40th Anniversary it still happens no matter where the songs are played, other artists have sang this songs and the crowd sings because thats the genius that Freddie was. Make songs anyone can sing, anytime, anywhere by anyone one but make no mistake he will always be the best front man ever to grace the stage
It's absolutely insane how he manages to hit every single note. During live shows, even the best of singers will slip up, if only for a second, and a tiny bit at that. Here, he is going so close to the edge, going to very difficult registers, and doesn't miss anything. Absolutely incredible.
Freddie Mercury one of the greatest singers of all time died of HIV/AIDS after he performed this concert that's why he couldn't get all of the notes spot on
The 80s were a decade marked by an explosion of colors, vibrant music and a unique style that is still remembered today with love and nostalgia. Gathering friends and family for an 80s themed party is a fun way to relive this iconic era and celebrate with lots of fun.
He wasn't diagnosed with AIDS at that time. He only had vocal nodules. While the film was amazing, don't take every information from it as true because there are many inaccuriaces.
Pre internet, pre mobile phone, over one third of the world's population watched this live, every pub, every park, in developing countries people actually travelled for days to see this on a television. This was a once in a lifetime performance.
@woollyted1666,4months this is all come from my phone some times my phone gets full ( edited) a lot of things, if you are happy I am too ,Thanks,for your kindness Catherine ,
My Mom used to say that Freddie Mercury was the best Singer in the world. And I as a kid was like well his voice is not bad. Now that she's gone, I started to realize that she was right. I´ts a good memory and powerful music.
True! Coming of age in the 1980's (I was born in the early '70's), I obviously new they were talented, but have such much more appreciation for their amazing artistry now. Every SINGLE time I listen to Bohemian Rhapsody- and it's been countless- I still get goosebumps, it's that powerful!
LoL not at all the best in the world. Pavarotti is way better for example. He did have a powerful voice though & above all powerful charisma which excites every woman breed in a man however! 👍
I'd be honored if some Queen fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal YT performances of PRAYING FOR TIME by George Michael and PURPLE RAIN by Prince in tribute to 2 of the greatest vocalist-songwriters in music history who followed the trail that Freddie Mercury blazed. Live acoustic with no autotune. Peace and stay safe.
I don't think you should call him a hero when his wreckless sexual behaviour led to him dying of aids it's not nice but he chose that path it's not the best role model is it
no one knew of the disease at the time, everyone was pretty reckless back then. I would certainly say its better than all the artists that have died due to overdose. No one's perfect were all humans, what is the point of watching a once in a lifetime performance and just going to the comments to degrade the performer/legend. If he's inspired so may millions, I would say that constitutes him as a hero.@@strongbow310
I wasn’t lucky enough to find Freddie in my youth and now I’ve developed this awful tinnitus it’s ringing in my ears which means I can’t sleep at night and it was tormenting me until I discovered all of these videos by Queen and listening to Freddie helps calm my mind and takes my focus away from the awful noise to the beautiful noise
I've had tinnitus for years. It sucks. Now I can't stand loud places. One sound a little too loud and all I hear is ringing. I found a sweet spot to press on, it gives me the illusion that it makes it better and not ring my brains out. Try finding yours!
Try listening to dolphin sounds and white noise before sleep 🐬🐬 My doctor recommended that for tinnitus, also ginkgo biloba suplements and B12. It helped me a lot 🙌
I’m beginning to realize that latter half of the 20th century was the golden age of popular music, the like of which we may never experience again. I had always hoped another rock movement would break out but it’s just not happening. Sure, we can always listen to the old albums and reminisce. But the amount of talent, the number of brilliant songwriters, and the iconic performers (like Freddie) was on another level compared to today.
We live in age of political correctness where everybody is very careful not to offend a certain segment of the market. This is the opposite of what rock and roll was doing in those days.
@@maxxdhaliwal Could be but he wasn't diagnosed with it yet so even if he did get it before the live aid concert, het didn't know it yet and he didn't know he was going to die.
Something I loved about Queen's live performances, is that they never are the same to the official songs. They switch up the tempo, or tone. This is a true live performance. Because it's them live. It's not the original song played on big booming speakers with the singers and instrumentalists dancing to it, they're giving their all, live.
No matter how many people watched, this is probably the greatest rock performance ever in the existence of the genre. A lot of folk from that time take it for granted, but for me and my generation, this is all we have to be able to witness the greatness of Queen, and of Freddie. I would give a kidney to be able to have seen Queen live in those days.
O filme do Queen terminou, estou chorando, relembrando os momentos com meu pai que se foi na pandemia, me dei conta agora que nos vídeos caseiros antigo de família, o som de trilha sonora do dvd é esse instrumental, meu pai me apresentou Queen e 500 outras bandas, fanático por Rock’n’Roll, a melhor e maior banda da história sem dúvidas, obrigado por tudo, Saudades pai 🌋
Meu pai tb me apresentou a banda Queen, qdo eu tinha 5 anos, entre outras bandas sensacionais de rock. Hoje eu tenho 36 anos e meu pai 66. Sempre que vou a casa dele costumamos escutar Queen e outras bandas de rock, como antigamente. Serei sempre grato ao meu querido e amado pai pelo bom gosto🎼❤🎸🌎🍀⭐
I am 26, suffering from ADHD and chronic depression. Queen's music is really giving me hope to live and go on. Thank you Freddie, Deacy, Roger and Brian :)
@@oscarbernal1461 Thank you! I am hanging in :) But I did not comment this to gain sympathy. I just wanted to convery how great Queen is! So appreciate them :)
The 80s was fairly crap tbh, no offence, only a handful of artists were amazing. The 70s was when rock in particular was incredible and the music scene was filled raw talent.
@@rayana4941 💁🏾♀️ Well that’s all subjective thus in your opinion, 70’s rock music was the best era; to @Reid Kyrzyk ‘s opinion, 80’s music did it for them. Why not allow their comment to stand w/o you coming to refute it? Why not start your own comment thread sayin’ 70’s music was the greatest (tho you’d look rather silly to do when this Live Aid video was from the 80’s 😂).
In the 70's we had closed a upscale restaurant where I was working as a young teen and the owner came rushing down the stairs yelling as we were getting ready to split and said I need 1/2 of you to stay and clock back in! We all pissed and moaned. We opened back up and in no time the place was banging! We reopened for Queen and all their crew! It was amazing. Then the owner came back and said the group appreciates you all and said they would like to thank you. So we all went out and there they were. Brian and Roger were really the ones to greet us and talk. Brian was pretty tall and Roger had just a edge to him and very engaging. John was a bit away but said thank you to us. Freddie was way in the back in the center of one of those big corner 1/2 circle booths surrounded be people and and was very shy almost awkard but we could see him say Thank you all..The hot fing waitress who wore outfits that you can't wear today were in high gear hitting on them..lol The next day in HS I was a rock star..lol To reflect back that I cooked for Queen and personally met them is magical and will always be with me ...
@@jacksmith3298 Yea, it was and sadly no cell phones and cameras back then. I have it with me forever. Roger and Brian were so cool especially Roger..lol
Yes hard to believe he didn't have many more years with us after this performance hey.. he looks so well in this performance.. so sad.. too many pass away before their time.. they get run roughshod by the industry that steals from them.. uses their talent.. makes a sh*t load of profit from the artists talents then treats them so poorly.. it's a crime and the day is coming when they will all answer for the way they treated their fellow man/woman/child.. RIP Freddie Mercury..
i love how you can just look at anything in this video and it just oozes 80s. the stage, the crowd, even the old pepsi logo on the piano. the long wires, the microphone, the clothing even. there was no fancy background dancers, no over the top special effects. just the band, the crowd, and the music. definitely beats modern day music/concerts
I read that Freddie was at home in Garden Lodge watching Live Aid and then casually in the afternoon said oh its time now that i was heading there. He was So calm and matter of fact about it like it was any other day. Little did he know years later his performance would be voted the greatest ever in the history of Rock Music. I knew it had to be. RIP
@AnnieGee Wow that is pretty darn cool. What a moment and connection for you. Having been there as well as being able to relive it online- that's the fully life experience! Wow
Just watched the movie and I thought I’d take a peek at the Liveaid performance for real. It’s truly remarkable how the movie production team who re-created this performance had nailed everything right down to (From) how Freddie sat down to the piano, to the Pepsi paper cups and other drinks sitting on the piano itself. 10/10 👏🏼👏🏼
The way Freddie and the band played with such passion and energy, Freddie's sounded like he's at the peak of preforming, they literally stole the show.
iam absolutly with you :) I was a little Girl when Freddy sind this Song first, now iam an old grey Women, and my Goosebumps are still here, when i hear this wonderful Song :) Thank you Freddy, sleep well !!!!

My Mom used to say that Freddie Mercury was the best Singer in the world. And I as a kid was like well his voice is not bad. Now that she's gone, I started to realize that she was right. I´ts a good memory and powerful music.
A very hot movie IS CALLED "СОЛНЦЕПЕК"
Обожаю его, нет его лучше 👍👍👍👍
Same as my dad he always plays queen and as a kid thought it was a simple music he liked but now I realized the same
True! Coming of age in the 1980's (I was born in the early '70's), I obviously new they were talented, but have such much more appreciation for their amazing artistry now. Every SINGLE time I listen to Bohemian Rhapsody- and it's been countless- I still get goosebumps, it's that powerful!
LoL not at all the best in the world. Pavarotti is way better for example. He did have a powerful voice though & above all powerful charisma which excites every woman breed in a man however! 👍
0% autotune
100% passion

This right here is legacy. Everyone music inclined should watch this few times. Lyrics and performance outdo special effects and anything else.
Man slid up, started playing the piano, and produced one of the greatest live performances EVER!!!!
Nah not 1 of
THE BEST
I'd be honored if some Queen fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal YT performances of PRAYING FOR TIME by George Michael and PURPLE RAIN by Prince in tribute to 2 of the greatest vocalist-songwriters in music history who followed the trail that Freddie Mercury blazed. Live acoustic with no autotune. Peace and stay safe.
Without a doubt the best live music performance ever, the sound engineer actually turned them up. That mans a hero
@@Alves1psure
Totalmente de acuerdo contigo lo del sonido es increíble..
I don't think you should call him a hero when his wreckless sexual behaviour led to him dying of aids it's not nice but he chose that path it's not the best role model is it
@@strongbow310 Its funny how people like you only see mistakes that people had made and not the good effect they've brought into the world👏👏
no one knew of the disease at the time, everyone was pretty reckless back then. I would certainly say its better than all the artists that have died due to overdose. No one's perfect were all humans, what is the point of watching a once in a lifetime performance and just going to the comments to degrade the performer/legend. If he's inspired so may millions, I would say that constitutes him as a hero.@@strongbow310

I never left
I wasn’t lucky enough to find Freddie in my youth and now I’ve developed this awful tinnitus it’s ringing in my ears which means I can’t sleep at night and it was tormenting me until I discovered all of these videos by Queen and listening to Freddie helps calm my mind and takes my focus away from the awful noise to the beautiful noise
Tbh i remember having really bad tinnitus when I was in middle school but now I just kinda got used to it, at this point I don’t even notice it
I've had tinnitus for years. It sucks. Now I can't stand loud places. One sound a little too loud and all I hear is ringing. I found a sweet spot to press on, it gives me the illusion that it makes it better and not ring my brains out. Try finding yours!
Try listening to dolphin sounds and white noise before sleep 🐬🐬 My doctor recommended that for tinnitus, also ginkgo biloba suplements and B12. It helped me a lot 🙌
I had a cat named tilly
Why do they call him queen if his name was Freddie jus askn?
I’m beginning to realize that latter half of the 20th century was the golden age of popular music, the like of which we may never experience again. I had always hoped another rock movement would break out but it’s just not happening. Sure, we can always listen to the old albums and reminisce. But the amount of talent, the number of brilliant songwriters, and the iconic performers (like Freddie) was on another level compared to today.
True enough.. I grew up on Reggae and Hip Hop, I would love to see Rock/Soft Rock take the lead. Seriously.
We live in age of political correctness where everybody is very careful not to offend a certain segment of the market. This is the opposite of what rock and roll was doing in those days.

Something I loved about Queen's live performances, is that they never are the same to the official songs. They switch up the tempo, or tone. This is a true live performance. Because it's them live. It's not the original song played on big booming speakers with the singers and instrumentalists dancing to it, they're giving their all, live.
Love Queen❤ RIP Freddie❤
Most bands do that
You are saying this like no other band does this.
@@hristodyulgerov9 Only difference is, none of them do it like Queen
Right on brother
No one does live quite like queen !
No matter how many people watched, this is probably the greatest rock performance ever in the existence of the genre.
A lot of folk from that time take it for granted, but for me and my generation, this is all we have to be able to witness the greatness of Queen, and of Freddie. I would give a kidney to be able to have seen Queen live in those days.
I'm also sorry it's the only video I can see of Queen, and RIP to you who donated your kidney 🙏🙏

I'll never forget watching this as a kid. I didn't know at the time how f'ing iconic it all was.
O filme do Queen terminou, estou chorando, relembrando os momentos com meu pai que se foi na pandemia, me dei conta agora que nos vídeos caseiros antigo de família, o som de trilha sonora do dvd é esse instrumental, meu pai me apresentou Queen e 500 outras bandas, fanático por Rock’n’Roll, a melhor e maior banda da história sem dúvidas, obrigado por tudo, Saudades pai 🌋
Saudade também do meu mano, hoje assistir ao filme, lembrei muito do meu maninho, a única certeza que tenho que estamos só de passagem nesta terra.
Meu pai tb me apresentou a banda Queen, qdo eu tinha 5 anos, entre outras bandas sensacionais de rock. Hoje eu tenho 36 anos e meu pai 66. Sempre que vou a casa dele costumamos escutar Queen e outras bandas de rock, como antigamente. Serei sempre grato ao meu querido e amado pai pelo bom gosto🎼❤🎸🌎🍀⭐

Welcome to the 80's everyone, no autotune, just raw talent
The 80s was fairly crap tbh, no offence, only a handful of artists were amazing. The 70s was when rock in particular was incredible and the music scene was filled raw talent.
Queen was phenomenal and their peak was the 70s.
@@rayana4941 💁🏾♀️ Well that’s all subjective thus in your opinion, 70’s rock music was the best era; to @Reid Kyrzyk ‘s opinion, 80’s music did it for them. Why not allow their comment to stand w/o you coming to refute it? Why not start your own comment thread sayin’ 70’s music was the greatest (tho you’d look rather silly to do when this Live Aid video was from the 80’s 😂).
autotune isnt always bad
The 80s was the peak of our civilization. You can check that in things like music or sports
In the 70's we had closed a upscale restaurant where I was working as a young teen and the owner came rushing down the stairs yelling as we were getting ready to split and said I need 1/2 of you to stay and clock back in! We all pissed and moaned. We opened back up and in no time the place was banging! We reopened for Queen and all their crew! It was amazing. Then the owner came back and said the group appreciates you all and said they would like to thank you. So we all went out and there they were. Brian and Roger were really the ones to greet us and talk. Brian was pretty tall and Roger had just a edge to him and very engaging. John was a bit away but said thank you to us. Freddie was way in the back in the center of one of those big corner 1/2 circle booths surrounded be people and and was very shy almost awkard but we could see him say Thank you all..The hot fing waitress who wore outfits that you can't wear today were in high gear hitting on them..lol The next day in HS I was a rock star..lol To reflect back that I cooked for Queen and personally met them is magical and will always be with me
